Jesus Christ said, "Love thy neighbor as thyself" (Matt. 22:39). What if you hate "thyself" - is it possible to love others? Mankind is indeed his own worst enemy. More people murder themselves each year (25,000 suicides annually in the United States) than murder others (18,000 homicides p ...

Do YOU realize just how great this Work of God is becoming? Do you realize there is NO ACTIVITY ON EARTH LIKE IT? Do you realize WHAT is making it great—just WHAT MAKES IT TICK? I have said the living Christ has DRAFTED YOU—and me—into HIS service, as HIS Co-Workers. But He certainly did not compel ...

My friends, about one-third of all of your Bible is prophecy. The prophecies foretell the future of this world and the major world events, the things that are to come. It foretells the condition, the chaotic condition in this world today. You can't understand world news. You can't understand wha ...

Brethren, I think there is one thing I think we need to be very especially concerned about, now we are at the very end time. There's only a very short time now before the Great Tribulation, and it's going to be a greater time of trouble than you've probably even imagined. Are you really a Chri ...

Uphill All the Way: WE HAD come, in the previous chapter, to the spring of 1935. Now I should like to backtrack briefly. The broadcast had started the first Sunday in January, 1934. The first issue of The Plain Truth, mimeographed, came out February 1, 1934. The third point of the "Three-Point-Campa ...

AT LAST! — the new book on sex and marriage, "GOD SPEAKS OUT on the New Morality," is printed, bound, and mailed out to those who have, to date, requested it. What an undertaking it was! Never before have we published and offered (free of course) a complete book — 340 pages, an inch thick. ...

Jesus came from heaven bearing a startling message from God to man - the gospel of the kingdom of God - and to train disciples who were to found the New Testament church which would carry the same gospel world-wide. What were the practices of Jesus? What did He teach His disciples? IT IS shocking bu ...

Up to the present, we know, the whole created universe groans in all its parts as if in the pangs of childbirth, (Rom. 8:22). Humankind somehow senses that something is very wrong with this world today. The tragic symptoms are everywhere about us. Humanity is continually confronted with a growing mu ...

My son, Garner Ted Armstrong, whose voice you hear on The WORLD TOMORROW, has written a personal letter offering you something (FREE of course) he believes you will want. It is also time for my own personal letter to you, which I write semiannually to our subscribers. So we have decided to send BOTH ...

The spaced-out junkie with needle marks up and down both arms and legs, the wino on skid row, the foodoholic who can't get through the day without his coffee and candy bars-all these negative images are conjured up at the mention of the word "addict." But there are habits and, yes, addic ...

Now once again my friends, why were you put here on this earth? Very few realize the purpose of life. As I have mentioned in the preceding program we just live life aimlessly. We don't know why we are here, we don't know where we are going or whether we're going, and the main thing is just to ...

Many are accused of preaching the "Gospel" for the money they GET out of it. Here is a frank, open statement of the PLAIN TRUTH. Here I lay my life bare as an open book before you! Here is a story such as you have never read before. The State of California, through the attorney general's office, h ...

WHEN Jonathan overran a Philistine garrison, King Saul called for men to come to Gilgal to get ready for war with the Philistines. Thousands of Israelites obeyed the summons. (I Samuel 13:1-4.) But when they learned that a huge fighting force of enemy foot soldiers, horsemen and charioteers was appr ...

It is the spring of 1945. The fighting in Europe is over. Never has war been more destructive. The human and material losses are incalculable. The staggering enormity of the tragedy gradually becomes clear. The appalling cost in human lives totals more than 40 million civilian and military deaths. E ...

The mystery of Oak Island, off the coast of Nova Scotia, has defied solution since 1795. The island is even shaped like a question mark. Supposedly, an enormous treasure is hidden on this island, and treasure hunters have spent millions of dollars trying to find it. But all their efforts have p ...
