Comments about The Good News
My boss's assistant was sorting the mail, and I happened to walk in as she was
going to throw away this life-filled magazine.
I know it wasn't by chance that the July-August issue landed in my hands. There must
be something I need to know about God and the world around me. I'm a 20-year-old
lady from Zimbabwe, and you
had an article about my country ("Africa: What's Behind the Zimbabwe Land Crisis?"),
which showed your concern about forgotten Africa. I thank and praise God for your
diligent work to further the gospel.

I noticed your magazine in my wife's doctor's office today and read all the way through it (her doctor is often late when he sees his patients). I almost took it home to read it all over again. I surely would appreciate a free subscription like you offer, and when I get back to work-I'm off on strike-I'll consider a small gift to your magazine. We need more of these around the country.

Thank you for the magazine and other booklets. Your outlook and approach to world affairs are always linked to a religious viewpoint. This helps to see the events around us in a different way.

I thoroughly enjoy your magazine and Bible studies. I enjoyed your March-April edition, especially "What's Left Behind in the Rapture Theory?" I don't think there are many Christians who do a thorough investigation of Scripture when studying that doctrine. When it comes to studying any doctrine that comes from the Bible, we should take the whole Bible in its entirety on the subject.

This is excellent advice and perfectly in line with Jesus' declaration that we should live by every word of God (Matthew 4:4; Luke 4:4). We encourage our readers not to simply accept what we say (or what they have always heard or been taught), but to search the Scriptures to prove the truth for themselves (Acts 17:11).
Archaeology and the Bible
Your magazine has truly been a blessing. My children (young adults) have commented, on more than one occasion, on some of the articles presented in your publication after seeing it in my apartment. I would also like to thank you for your dedication to the archaeological pursuit of the Bible. Archaeology is a hobby of mine, so I am extremely blessed whenever I can read about the Word of God being verified through the finds that are presented in your magazine.

We at The Good News firmly believe that the Bible is God's Word and that archaeology is one of many proofs that this is so. For readers who would like to further verify the authenticity of the Bible, we recommend our free booklets Is the Bible True? and Life's Ultimate Question: Does God Exist?
