Dear Co-Workers in Christ's Service:
"The WORLD TOMORROW" now goes out on one of the great
major net-works, ABC, Transcontinental!
From WQAM, Miami, Florida, clear across to KFAR,
Fairbanks, Alaska---and from KECA, Los Angeles, all the way across
to WANI, Bangor, Maine, these scores of stations on the ABC Radio
Net-work now release to the far corners of the North American
continent the VERY SAME Gospel Jesus proclaimed.
From the world's greatest standard-wave station, Radio
Luxembourg, the same dynamic Message from God to this 20th-century
world now enters into the homes of millions in all parts of Europe
and the British Isles---and now HUNDREDS OF LETTERS EVERY WEEK are
pouring in from overseas listeners!
Add all this to the super-power programs going out over
giant Mexican stations, and THE WORLD TOMORROW VERY POSSIBLY NOW IS
THE MOST POWERFUL RADIO BROADCAST ON EARTH!
Listen, CO-WORKERS! This has the greatest significance
of any world event in our time! Do you know what it means? The
disciples came to Jesus and asked Him when the END OF THIS WORLD
would come, and the time of His Second Coming? Read this greatest
prophecy Jesus ever spoke, in the 24th chapter of Matthew. He told
them in plain language WHEN this world shall END---exactly WHEN He
shall come again! And the only sign He gave them was this: "And
this Gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in all the world for
a witness unto ALL NATIONS; and THEN shall the END come."
Jesus' own apostles proclaimed this same GOSPEL OF THE
KINGDOM OF GOD thru Palestine and Asia Minor. That took one 19-
year cycle. GOD'S TIME RUNS IN 19-YEAR CYCLES! Then, after the
first 19-year cycle, in 50 A.D., a door was opened for the Apostle
Paul to preach the same Gospel in EUROPE. And all organized work
of preaching it was finally stopped in 69 A.D.---after one more
19-year cycle---when the Roman armies advanced toward Jerusalem,
and the disciples all fled, as Jesus commanded in Mat. 24:15-16 and
Luke 21:20-21. The organized powers of government from Rome
stopped the organized proclaiming of JESUS' MESSAGE from that
point. Soon the Gentile pagans, infiltrating into the churches and
outnumbering the really converted saints, persecuting them and
driving them out of the organized assemblies, introduced new pagan
doctrines and customs. The Gospel Jesus had proclaimed was snuffed
