"It's going against everything I believe in, but there's still this thought in my mind that it's going to happen, sooner or later..." The letter was from an attractive teenage girl, a recent subscriber of Youth 82. In spite of the pressures of her friends at school, the permissive society we l ...

You will be surprised at how much of what you do, think and feel is a matter of habit. Without habits we could not function - or perhaps even survive. That's the good side of habits. Habits allow us to perform an astronomical number of actions without significant conscious thought, effort or undue ...

Have you ever gone to sleep while studying the Bible? Do you have to force yourself to "get in" your Bible study each day? Does "studying by the clock" sound all too familiar? Perhaps you even find yourself neglecting study altogether? These are very common errors - and it's ti ...

And greetings friends. This is Herbert W Armstrong with the Good News of the World Tomorrow. And again I say we ought to have good news today, and we could have it. And there is a way to have it if we only would be willing to find that way. My friends do you know that it's possible to believe in J ...

Get your mind in fourth gear and come to understand answers to some questions almost nobody dares ask. If God has existed forever in the past, and He is going to exist forever in the future - then, how did He ever get to now?" asked a bright young student in my sophomore class in Old Testament ...

Why was King David not stoned for committing adultery with Bath-sheba? I do not understand Matthew 24:40-41. What does it mean "one shall be taken, and the other left"? Taken where? In John 9:3, Jesus told His disciples that the blindness of a particular man resulted from neither his sins ...

Question 1: I Peter 2:21 says, "Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps." If Jesus were not teaching celibacy by His example, why didn't He marry? Question 2: Should Christian brethren close personal letters to one another with the phrase &quo ...

Jesus said, "Judge not, that you be not judged." Yet, just a few verses later in that same Sermon on the Mount, He said, "You shall know them by their fruits." The first statement is clear. But at the same time, the second implies that some form of judgment or assessment takes place in the m ...

In the face of life's trials, we need to know how to stay on the path of positive Christian growth. Do you ever get discouraged? Do hard times get you depressed? Are you overtaken by feelings of despair and hopelessness? A recent survey showed that 45 percent of the men and 57 percent of the women ...

Who would have guessed that from the moment of birth infants are often deprived of their right to emotional maturity. Here is how it happens-and what must be done about it. ...

GREETINGS! in Jesus' name: You are one of several hundred of our radio listeners, and readers of The PLAIN TRUTH, who have written me about being baptized. I am more than happy to be able to tell you that God has provided men qualified to come to you, or at least near you where you can meet them, ...

Surely, in this confused and hectic age, few subjects are more timely. What is worrying you? What bothers you when you think about tomorrow - or next year- or five years from now? Do financial problems loom on the horizon for you? Do you worry about your job, or the prospect of being unemployed? ...
