storm, he was able to receive only one radio station, and it happened to be
airing "The WORLD TOMORROW" at that time. Following are several additional
experiences people have related to us:
The first time I read your magazine was when a lady was about to
discard it. Well, I'll tell you it was a lucky day for me. I im
mediately subscribed and am happy that I did. Many myths and
misconceptions have been cleared up. May God continue to bless
you and your staff.

I am a Nigerian. I first saw a PLAIN TRUTH magazine in my little
village of Oduoha-Ogbakiri in 1966 during the Nigerian crisis. I
was only 14 years old then. When I asked the boy who was holding
the magazine how he got such an American magazine, he told me it
was free. I didn't bother any further. Then in 1981 I was in
Paris taking a course when I saw another issue of The PLAIN
TRUTH. I was surprised it was not extinct like other magazines,
and on my return to Nigeria I placed an order for the magazine.

Before reading your magazine, I had read the Bible four times and
studied the doctrines of several different denominations. The
Bible never did make any sense to me. I found fault in the be
liefs of every church I attended and I was left with a lot of un
answered questions.
I was about ready to give up when I came across a copy of The
PLAIN TRUTH while cleaning up a shopping center parking lot. I
was amazed at what I read. Although I had many questions, I kept
them all to myself while I ordered booklets and magazines and en
rolled in your Bible correspondence course. During the course of
my studies I've read the Bible again. My answers were always
there, right in my own Biblel

I have always believed in God and I believe that Jesus Christ was
crucified to save us from damnation, but I have never understood
this. I was taught that I didn't need to understand; I just
needed to believe. I tried to understand by reading the Bible.
But reading the Old Testament from Genesis to Malachi proved to
be more confusing.
Unable to get any clearer picture from clergymen, I turned to
God. I prayed for a better understanding. The very next day I
woke up and turned on the television and "The WORLD TOMORROW" was
on. Now with the help of your Bible correspondence course, I am
learning more of God every day. I thank God for answering my
prayers and I thank you for enlightening not only me but also my
wife.
