January 12, 1899, was a bleak day in Britain. Along the normally picturesque southwestern coast, huge, ugly waves pounded the tiny harbors. In Lynmouth, the 12-man lifeboat crew waited expectantly.

But with it, you shall suffer the SEVEN LAST PLAGUES OF GOD! We begin now to see that the MARK of the beast involves a point of ...

Question 1: Just what is a "saint"? Question 2: If God changed His mind in Exodus 32 about destroying Israel, how can I be completely assured that He won't change His mind about healing me? Question 3: Recently, while reading the account of creation in the first chapter of Genesis, I noticed that ...

The lid is off the shocking story of WHO and WHAT the mysterious "Antichrist" really is. You need to open your mind to understand this vital TRUTH - here made plain for the first time. Why can't you worship God just as you please? Or can you? Does it make any difference? The existence of ...

Certain dissident voices have been raised, since Jan. 3, deceiving God's people about obeying the government of man! DO WE UNDERSTAND that the GOVERNMENT OF GOD once ruled the entire earth? Do we understand that Satan's major thrust is to turn us against the GOVERNMENT OF God? ...

London, England. Should the British be condemned for such an elaborate coronation? The real truth is SHOCKING! Dick Armstrong was there. Here is the TRUTH. On the second of June, I witnessed the coronation procession of Queen Elizabeth II in London, England. I have just returned for a visit home fro ...

As most of you know by now, the receivership has been (for all practical purposes) lifted from the WCG, AICF and from Ambassador College. How did it affect the College? What about Ambassador's future? The imposition of the receivership did have serious repercussions on Ambassador College. In all, ...

Question 1: "Just how should a Christian's love be expressed toward his enemies? Are we to ask God's terrible justice and vengeance upon them, as David did in some of the Psalms? Are not these contrary to Christ's prayers for God's mercy on those who crucified Him? In short, what form s ...

Let's not take everyday routine of events for granted. Let's awake to the REALITY of where we are in the panorama of world events. For we are in a very SERIOUS time! As we approach perhaps the greatest Feast of Tabernacles in 1900 years, we need to be conscious that we are approaching CLOSER THA ...

Dear Fellow Ministers: Greetings from Pasadena! We are all fine here and I just got a fine report on the Shreveport campaign. We have cut the campaign format to two nights as it is more effective. So in Shreveport they had 576 people - with 71 new attendees - Friday night: and 333 total people - wit ...

Mr. Herbert Armstrong spoke to a combined audience in Pasadena this past Sabbath. The auditorium was filled and the sermon was seen by many hundreds more via closed-circuit television in the college and Imperial gymnasiums.

In response to overwhelming demand this sixth and revised volume of The Bible Story is published. We are thrilled, and overjoyed, because of the enthusiastic acceptance of Volumes I through V. Those who have read the previous five volumes know that there has never been a Bible story book like this. ...

Have you noticed how what starts as slang can completely alter the meaning of a word? Take the word unreal, for instance. Today, people often say unreal when they mean fantastic, astounding or much better than expected. The party my teenage daughters went to last night was "unreal." The ne ...

Are the Ten Commandments negative, and therefore a wrong form of law? Often we hear the basic law of God impugned as negative, and therefore not good. God is often conceived as a stern, wrathful God, who angrily says to us: "Thou shalt not!" God's truth is sometimes looked upon as a reli ...

Many things have happened since I last wrote to you a month ago. The passing time seems to speed up. These are the summer months in which we cannot afford to bask lazily in the warmth of the sun in idle leisure. Rather, more than ever, we need a sense of URGENCY. Events in the world are not taking a ...
