And I want to explain, candidly, that I have mentioned this
because I feel there are some, among the 70,000 or more who will
receive this letter, who will welcome this suggestion---perhaps
enough that once again, in a crisis of need, there may be a down-
pour at least of widow's mites. Or if you are one who would like
to take a regular active part in financing this wonderful work of
God, we would welcome you as a Co-Worker.
But PLEASE UNDERSTAND---this is not at all intended as a
request, and is only intended for those who really welcome this
suggestion. I want you to know my Co-Workers and I consider it a
very precious PRIVILEGE to be able to send you the Gospel Jesus
taught, without money and without price---and we are grateful to
those who are willing to read The PLAIN TRUTH and other literature
we send, without any price whatsoever to you.
Thru all the tests of faith, this work has been blessed,
and expanded by the grace of God, who has proved to us abundantly
that HE will never leave us or forsake us, and that HE never drops
a work which He has begun. Of course God carries on all His work,
during this age, thru human agencies---thru those whose lives and
hearts are yielded to Him. He seems always to reveal to an ever-
increasing family of surrendered and willing co-workers that this
is, truly, HIS very work, thru which HE carries out HIS MISSION,
the great Gospel Commission, "Go ye into ALL THE WORLD, and PREACH
THE GOSPEL." There are now a few thousand faithful co-workers,
scattered in all 48 states, who willingly and gladly join me in
this ministry of LOVE, and of faith, to make possible the carrying
of God's true Message, without fear or favor, and without
compromise, to the whole world. I am not muzzled---except by God
Himself, and His precious Word! Most of these dear voluntary
co-workers are not known to me personally. To me, it's a miracle
---beyond my understanding. Yet in this way, God has opened the
doors, led the way, provided the means, that HIS TRUTH may be
fearlessly THUNDERED around the world---that you may be privileged
to hear it, and to read The Plain Truth, without price or cost to
you.
Notwithstanding, I sincerely feel it is a far greater
privilege God has granted me, in being thus able to serve you, and
to be His instrument that thru my voice and pen you may receive the
precious truths of God, than the privilege He grants you in
receiving. Truly, as Jesus said, it is more blessed to GIVE than
to receive.
And so, for allowing me this very great privilege of
serving you and ministering to you GOD'S TRUE MESSAGE, I thank you,
and I just wanted to express to you my heartfelt gratitude.
May I remind you, in closing, of the Ambassador College
Bible CORRESPONDENCE COURSE? It is now ready. I think it is the
most INTERESTING, as well as the most valuable course of Bible
study ever offered. THERE IS NO TUITION. We have decided to
enroll all students in this correspondence course without charge,
thru FAITH IN GOD. If you are willing to devote not less than a
HALF HOUR every day, seven days a week, to the study of YOUR BIBLE,
with and thru this course, I hope you'll write in by return mail
