Dear Brethren and Co-Workers with Christ:
It has now been almost six weeks since I wrote you. I told you then, that
despite Satan's
vicious and often massive attacks to DESTROY God's Work, it was in the best
condition ever.
It was PLUNGING AHEAD in a NEW burst of power, coming in on the homestretch of
our
race to FINISH the tremendous commission to which the living GOD has called us!
That renewed revitalized SURGE OF POWER has continued! Jesus Christ IS
PLEASED
with your SACRIFICE to send in enlarged offerings that His Work may leap forward
and be
enlarged! The increase in results--in new members--in more TV and radio
stations--in income
to provide for a more powerful lunge forward--in every way there is INCREASE!
But so far,
it's only a START! Now we must INCREASE our sacrifices and our EFFORTS!
In recent weeks three new MAJOR TV STATIONS in MAJOR MARKETS have opened
their doors to us. The number one television station of Chicago, WGN, has
opened. The number
one station in the Rocky Mountain area, KOA in Denver, has opened, and also the
number
one station in the central southwest area--KCMO of Kansas City. These are really
POWER-
HOUSES! As we move forward, showing Christ we are in earnest and putting HIM and
His
Work FIRST in our lives, HE also is MOVING FORWARD, opening new doors--blessing
the
Work--restraining Satan--empowering us in HIS SERVICE!
Plans are moving forward rapidly preparing the opening this fall of the
new JUNIOR
COLLEGE at BIG SANDY! The faculty is chosen. All faculty members have been
chosen,
and accepted the assignment. The faculty consists of seven Ph.D.s and 11 M.A.s--
a superb
faculty, and ALL MEMBERS of God's Church.
We could now qualify for accreditation both at Pasadena and Big Sandy--but
we shall
not, because the GOVERNMENT of the colleges would have to be according to that
which
is in force in this world's educational institutions--GOD'S government would
have to go. WE
ALREADY HAVE THE HIGHEST ACCREDITATION OF ALL--THAT OF ALMIGHTY GOD!
The Work as a whole has actually started a decisive UPWARD trend since
last November.
