Another issue of The PLAIN TRUTH will go to the printers before you receive this BULLETIN. I know you are all anxiously awaiting it. Hundreds of letters tell me that. But since it takes a week or ten days from the time we turn copy over to the printers before it is ready to be mailed, I want to send ...

The Jews did not recognize Jesus as the Messiah when He appeared over 1900 years ago. They called Him a blasphemer. The Romans crucified Him.
