Heart to Heart Talk With the Editor - Herbert W Armstrong - October 1948

Herbert W Armstrong

I WONDER how many of my readers are like one who said to me recently: "Well, I'll tell you why I'm not a Christian. It isn't that I don't believe in God or in being converted - I believe it, all right - and I've often wanted to be a Christian - but sorriehow it just all seems so FAR OFF - so UNREAL." Tonight I cut a large slice of watermelon and ate it. It was deliciousand I was sure it was real. It didn't seem far off, mysterious, unreal. The things we see, and haridle, come in constant daily contact and association with all seem REAL. Yes, this slice of watermelon was real. But I thought, as I worked to extricate the seeds, "What caused these seeds to grow inside this melon? Out of the ground, from another seed, sprouted a vine, and on the vine a tiny watermelon began to form, and as it grew these seeds developed inside it. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
