of us don't even bother with roads anymore -- we fly a third or
half way around the earth on one trip in our own private aircraft.
MORE SPEED! That's what people want. That's what they've
got. But is it GOOD for people? The automobile SPEEDED up: then
World War I and World War II developed the airplane, dropping bombs
on enemy targets, and finally NUCLEAR bombs destroyed WHOLE CITIES!
Human governments have come and gone in due course, but today
they are coming and going faster and faster.
My mission is to proclaim a very vital MESSAGE IN ALL THE
WORLD, for a witness to ALL NATIONS (not necessarily IN all nations).
More than forty years ago the door of radio was opened to proclaim
this MESSAGE within a single county in the state of Oregon, in the
United States of America. That was January 7, 1934. It was the
start of a MASS audience. After two years I was speaking over a
station in Portland, Oregon. Then, speeding up faster and faster,
Seattle, Spokane, Los Angeles, and then an international audience
over many stations. I was speaking to millions! After 19 years,
the first week of 1953, we had a very scattered listening audience
in Europe and Britain over Radio Luxembourg -- but no station in
Britain. Countries in Europe let us in. After World War II,
television had come along. In 1955 I started on 12 television
stations scattered from New York to Chicago to the west coast of
America. Later my son Garner Ted was doing the broadcasting,
speaking on half-hour programs with heavy coverage from coast to
coast in the United States and Canada.
But we were unable to purchase extensive radio or TV time,
except in the United States and Canada. Finally in the past five years
doors have opened for me to carry this message of WORLD PEACE and the
happy and prosperous WORLD TOMORROW into many nations as a result
of meetings with many HEADS OF STATE -- kings, presidents, and
others high in government. This message is concerned with
government, but NOT with politics. It is concerned with the
CAUSES of increasing EVILS and troubles, and the way to peace
and a better, happy world, and the way to the SOLUTIONS and peace.
It is a MESSAGE that God the Creator of ALL NATIONS sent to
mankind by Jesus Christ more than 1900 years ago. That vital Message
was suppressed in the first century in a "gospel" ABOUT the MESSENGER
(Gal. 1:6-9). That was the Message -- the GOOD NEWS which reveals
the WAY to, and will bring, peace in OUR TIME. Christ knew that
Message would not continue going to the world, so He foretold that
just before the end of the world, the Message of the KINGDOM would
be announced in all the world for a witness to all nations (Matt.
24:3,14).
It took FORTY YEARS to get this message over the United States,
Canada, and Australia. Now it is finally going to the countries
who have not yet heard that Message. In these countries there is
no free speech, free press, or time available on radio or television
stations. The government controls the spreading of all news, even
the good news. But now even these governments are coming to want
their top and leading people to hear this vital Message, which neither
religion nor science has revealed.
