This is a quick and short EMERGENCY S.O.S.!!! This whole world has suddenly hit a stupendous CRISIS. At the same time, the most important activity on earth — GOD'S WORK — faces a crucial emergency. WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THIS WORLD? Can your mind really grasp it? In 1944 we were in the fast-moving ...

Not only do I have to rush this emergency letter to you AIRMAIL—but I have to do what I have never done before—enclose a self-addressed reply envelope ALREADY STAMPED WITH AN AIRMAIL STAMP!I have been simply dismayed by something else I have never seen before. Every week-end I receive from our Mail ...

I do thank you, — and may God specially bless you — for the generous offering (or tithe) which I gratefully acknowledge. You know how Jesus summed up the very principle of worth-while, happy, and Christian living when He said, "It is more blessed to GIVE than to receive." We here are thank ...

Youth Contributions: Income from our youth is holding up well. Normally, after school starts, the youth contributions to the Church drop off sharply. This year the figure is continuing to hold at five to six thousand dollars per week. This week a total of 143 letters contained $5,900.00, averagi ...

This letter is about a month past due, because of stopovers in Texas and New York, and returning again to Ambassador College near London, in England. That very fact has put the Work of God in a serious emergency. It seems that so many of our Co-Workers depend on these monthly letters from me, to rem ...

This, again, is an EMERGENCY S.O.S.! I have had to be delayed almost a month in sending you this letter. When you don't get a letter from me, many of our Co-Workers stop sending in tithes and offerings for God's great work. Result? Receipt of money for the work is now dropping off alarmingly! An ...

Question: "Where and when did the custom of observing Lent originate?" Answer: Believe it or not, Lent was observed 4000 years ago! The apostle Paul commanded the Gentile-born Christians to cease observing it! Many have supposed Lent is taught in the Bible. But they have never looked into ...

Probably I have NEVER written you a letter as important — as URGENT — as this! First, this morning's news is MORE SERIOUS than most people will realize! I tell you soberly, it means we are now right on the very DOORSTEP of the MOST SERIOUS CRISIS, and WORLD TROUBLE that has ever happened in all hi ...

he work God has given us to do has reached ITS MOST IMPORTANT HOUR! This is the TURNING POINT — the SUPREME CRISIS — in this work's entire history, past and future! From this moment God's work either falls backward and fails, or plunges on in multiplied magnitude toward its God- commissioned goa ...

Who were the Nicolaitanes? The doctrines of this body of heretics has never ceased to puzzle Church historians. They have always imagined that the Nicolaitanes had to be a small sect which separated from the great worldly body of professing Christians. It has never occurred to the scholars that the ...

1. You shall have no other gods before me. 2. You shall not make for yourself a carved image. 3. You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain. 4. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. 5. Honor your father and your mother. 6. You shall not murder. 7. You shall not commit adultery. 8. ...

Please read this at once. It's very important, It's URGENT! Somehow, I must make all our co-workers realize WHAT A TERRIBLE THING IS HAPPENING! My heart is heavy as lead. A colossal tragedy is happening. HOW can I make all you co-workers realize it? My recent letter of November 11th didn't mak ...

How did the celebration of New Year's Eve begin? Why is the beginning of a year placed in the middle of a dead winter? And where did the many customs surrounding it originate? MOST people carelessly assume that celebrating New Year's Eve is a Christian custom. But did the practice of "waiting th ...

Greetings again from England! Mrs. Armstrong and I are scheduled to return, tomorrow, to America—provided the fog lifts. The notorious London fog has grounded planes at London Airport the past day or two. We plan to fly direct to Dallas on a London-Dallas flight, visiting the new Ambassador College ...
