GOD'S CHURCH has been in mortal DANGER! That danger was WITHIN OURSELVES – the fatal danger of drifting ...

I have just returned from one of the most—possibly the MOST— successful trips ever in God's Work. First I flew to two Arab oil states—OMAN, and KUWAIT. I met important leaders at Oman, but Sultan Qaboos bin Said was out of the country, so I plan to return. At Kuwait I had a very fine meeting with ...
