living Jesus Christ to be HIS CO-WORKER in the very Work HE is
heading, directing, and blessing with such unprecedented results.
WHAT A PRIVILEGE to have a part in changing lives -- in actually
CHANGING and SAVING THE WORLD! It's the greatest Work on earth,
because the POWER OF GOD is guiding and energizing it with
VITALITY and POWER!
Yet right now many Co-Workers are FORGETTING to send their
gifts for CHRIST and HIS WORK, spending lavishly on EXCHANGING
Christmas presents back and forth with members of their family,
relatives and friends. They are not presenting their gifts to
CHRIST, but to one another!
Co-Workers, let's KEEP THIS GREAT WORK ALIVE -- and GROWING,
as it has for 37 years! This very difficult month is the time to
be EXTRA GENEROUS toward this most needed Work on earth. When
Moses had to ask the Ancient Israelites for contributions, they
responded so overwhelmingly he had to send another proclamation
asking that they desist. When the Apostle Paul called on the early
Gentile Christians for contributions, they responded liberally.
Neither he nor Moses solicited the general public for contributions
-- and neither do we. They asked only God's own people. We can
look only to you who have volunteered to be part of our little
family of Co-Workers -- that we may GIVE THE PRECIOUS TRUTH to the
world.
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! For your wonderful part in
CHANGING LIVES, and helping prepare the way to CHANGE and save THE
WORLD! You and I have a WONDERFUL PRIVILEGE IN THIS!
Because of congestion of Christmas mails, and THE URGENCY, I
am enclosing a STAMPED AIRMAIL ENVELOPE for your reply.
With love, in Jesus' name,
Herbert W. Armstrong
