Dear Co-Worker with Christ:
Last Sunday night, as two U.S. astronauts stepped
cautiously down from their Lunar Module onto the moon, President
Nixon, by radio-telephone, said to them in the hearing of the WHOLE
WORLD: "THE HEAVENS HAVE BECOME PART OF MAN'S WORLD."
I want you to realize how SERIOUS these events are. I am
sure the President did not intend to be saying "GOD, GO HOME! -- we
humans are taking over Your Heavens." But the implications are
frightfully serious in what they now portend.
After Neil Armstrong (no relation to me so far as I know)
had taken one or two steps on the moon, he said, "That's one small
step for man...one GIANT LEAP for Mankind!"
Giant Leap -- toward WHAT? Going WHERE? Immediately the
Vice-President was urging that the Government set its next goal to
land men on MARS! Immediately predictions were filling the radio
and TV airways that THIS IS ONLY THE BEGINNING -- that man will now
even make the distant stars -- even other galaxies -- MAN'S world!
I want you to realize WHAT THIS MEANS! It does mean, even
as you probably heard many commentators saying over radio and TV,
that this world HAS ENTERED SUDDENLY A NEW ERA. This is a definite
and violent TURNING POINT! It means TIME IS ABOUT UP! We haven't
much longer to go to finish God's Work which the living Christ is
doing through you and me!
Co-Workers, IT'S TIME FOR US TO WAKE UP!
GOD saw those astronauts walking and cavorting over the
moon. What does GOD say about this? What is GOD going to DO?
Let me tell you what He says! The Instruction Book our
Maker has given for our guidance begins with these words:
"In the beginning GOD created the heavens and the earth."
That may have been millions of years ago -- we have no way
of knowing. But in other parts of the Bible we find much revealed
that happened between the first verse and the second. If you do
