refrigerators, washing machines, radio and T.V. sets, more auto-
mobiles--even two cars to a family--and even vacation trips abroad.
Do you see HOW this is possible? ONLY BY INCREASE OF MACHINES
so that one man with machines produces more, in shorter hours, than
three or four men did before!
Up until now no foreign nation was as mechanized as the United
States. That gave America a great advantage. That made possible
increasing luxurious living, with decreasing physical labors.
BUT TIMES HAVE CHANGED! We need to WAKE UP! Germany, Italy,
Japan are getting machine production at a breath-taking pace! And
they still pay 30% to 40% as much in wages, while their men work
longer and longer hours! America's dreamland splurge into luxury
is about OVER!
In TEN YEARS we shall feel thee pinch. In twelve years or
less, we shall be in the depths of the worst depression ever
suffered by any nation! Our living standards will plummet DOWN,
DOWN, DOWN!!!
Co-Workers, GOD ALMIGHTY HAS FORE-TOLD ALL THIS FUTURE TO WAKE
UP OUR PEOPLES BEFORE IT HAPPENS! No one else on earth is
proclaiming the full message of the Bible's PROPHECIES!
No one else is proclaiming the GOOD NEWS of TOMORROW'S new
world, under the government of Jesus Christ! No one else is
WARNING the people! No one else preaches the very Gospel Jesus
Christ preached--which is the only true Gospel of Jesus Christ!
That might sound strange, BUT IT IS TRUE!
We have a terrific JOB to do. As world events whip up
momentum at accelerating pace, SO MUST THIS GREAT WORK OF GOD!
God Himself is leading the way! Constantly He is opening new
gigantic DOORS through which we may shout His GOSPEL around the
world! World events have stepped up this past six months faster
than ever before! BUT JESUS CHRIST HAS STEPPED UP THIS WORK THIS
PAST SIX MONTHS FASTER THAN EVER BEFORE!
NEVER has the work of God taken such powerful leaps ahead, as
in the past year and especially the past six months! One thing, if
I may mention it--while I have had to be in England, getting the
new Ambassador College in England started, my son, Garner Ted
Armstrong, having had to carry most of the broadcasting, has, by
God's grace, gained in speaking POWER, in dynamic IMPACT, and in
authoritative maturity. By more hours of prayer, by yielding still
more to God, he has allowed God to speak through him with a power
that only GOD ALMIGHTY can impart, with the vital energized spark
of God's own message!
But over here in Britain a large crew of electricians,
carpenters, bricklayers and other construction men are working on
an OVERTIME CRASH BASIS rushing to completion our new radio studio
so that I may remain, myself, on the air whenever I must be over
here! Right now we are in a frantic race against time--to allow me
to broadcast FROM HERE THE TWENTY-SEVENTH ANNIVERSARY PROGRAM which
