could not properly teach their children--or else have felt too embarrassed.
Teenagers need proper knowledge, yet heretofore it has not been available
to them. In this age of pressures toward promiscuity, blinded by false
teachings,
adolescents cannot be expected to resist premarital sex unless their minds are
opened to intelligent acceptance of GOD'S purposes and laws for our GOOD
--for a more abundant and truly pleasurable and happy life.
Married people need this knowledge if their marriage is to be preserved
and happy.
Early in the decade of the '60s this need was pressed heavily upon me.
Every book or manual I had been able to procure gave purely physical knowledge
about sex, without understanding of the joys and happiness our Creator had
intended when He designed and produced the reproductive system. God intended
it to have a spiritual as well as physical function--to endear a husband and
wife
in true spiritual LOVE (something far greater than lust)--and to BIND husband
and wife as ONE--spiritually as well as physically--to protect and preserve
the marriage in sacredness, happiness and joy.
THERE WAS NO SUCH BOOK!
I went into an in-depth research through the writings of gynecologists,
M.D.s, and even psychiatry M.D.s; and, in collaboration with M.D.s and Ph.D.s,
and even further biblical research, produced the book THE MISSING DIMENSION
IN SEX. A few years later a revised edition was published. Today the "New
Morality," falsely so called, has made such sweeping changes, a new edition
has been thoroughly updated as of December, 1980. There has never been a
book like it. It is as frank as any work by a doctor or gynecologist. God
Himself
is not a prude, but God speaks to us frankly and plainly. I feel He inspired
this
book, bringing out not only the physical knowledge necessary, but the spiritual
phase of the sex function as God would have you understand it.
In due time, I hope by early spring, it will be on sale at bookstores over
the United States, Canada and Britain.
I DO NOT WANT TO SELL IT TO OUR SUBSCRIBERS, and so I have decided
to offer each subscriber a copy of this updated, revised edition GRATIS with
my love and thanks to you for your interest in The PLAIN TRUTH. I have already
delivered the revised manuscripts over to our book publishers, Everest House.
On your request, I will have your special free copy mailed to you as soon
as Everest House delivers the books to our Pasadena offices. This is NOT a
booklet--but a full-sized book. God has shown me how needful this is, and I
am happy to be able to offer it gratis, with my love and compliments.
I'll try to keep you updated on world conditions as they progress through
The PLAIN TRUTH. By the way, it may interest you to know I am writing from
Jerusalem, November 3. The United States presidential election is tomorrow.
Today I had a good long talk with Prime Minister Menachem Begin at his office,
accompanied by Mr. Stanley Rader as usual, and also with the mayor of Jerusalem
Teddy Kollek and with our dear friend and former Israel consul general of Los
