I've been reading The Good News for a short time now. I have found it to be well-documented and thought-provoking. I can respect a publication that tells it like it is, without the embellishment. I read it cover to cover whenever I receive it. My wife and I will be reading it for years to come. Keep up the good work.

I saw your magazine in the house of my friend a few days ago and I am very impressed. This is a very good product for Christians. I want you to send me this magazine.

I'm 22 years old and from Iran. I graduated in the geology field last semester. At the moment I'm an English student in one of my city's institutes. One day the teacher brought a magazine to our class and introduced it to us. It was your gazette, The Good News. All of us had a glance. When I saw it, I found it so interesting and thought that it could help me to improve my knowledge of English and also make me more familiar with your religion. I would be happy if you sent me your magazine and accepted me as one of your subscribers.

I have read your publications for many years, and each time I am impressed with the importance of their contents. I therefore beg you not to cease sending me your material so that I may day by day continue to make use of it in my Bible study. My prayer to the Creator is that He constantly supply your needs and give you strength so that you may continue to bring His message to each and every home as He instructs in Mark 16:15—'Go into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature ...'

You cannot imagine how happy I am to have found your message. For about a year now we are on a new path, separating lies from truth. Sometimes we are quite shocked to see doctrines, teachings or interpretations upon which we have based our Christian faith. Your valuable, many-faceted articles are a big help for us and a confirmation in our fight against unfounded teachings.
—Reader from Switzerland
Thank you for sending me your magazine regularly. I am on the way to having more faith in God, and your magazine has its part in that. These magazines are wonderful, and I would like to receive a copy of each new booklet that you publish. My joy is great that there are still people today who write about God's Word like you do. Keep up the good work with your magazine. God bless you!

Thank you for giving away such a magazine. I found it in a stand near my supermarket. I read it through and through. I've read so many things I never heard of before and I've gained real understanding. I am 83 years old and I do want to know more about my Savior.

Please accept this donation for the work of God. May God richly bless your work as time is getting closer for the return of Jesus Christ to this earth. We need to get closer to God in prayer and Bible study, so we will be able to stand in times of trial.

I wanted to comment on the letter in the May-June issue in which someone was concerned that the United Church of God was anti-Catholic. I will simply say that I was raised Roman Catholic. But over the last year I have undergone some serious spiritual changes. As someone who followed what I thought to be right for my whole life, I was disturbed to come to an understanding that I was never given the whole story.
I'm glad I was given the opportunity to understand the Bible better. Sometimes things can sound judgmental, but if you are willing to look beyond that and see the reasons, you might find out that no one is being judged. Rather the ideas should be looked at closely so that whatever you believe, you have the understanding of why and can support your beliefs inside yourself. For me, when I started looking I discovered my beliefs needed to change to support what I now understand as truth.

My sister recently received your booklet Jesus Christ: The Real Story. She was telling me some of the truths in it, and they made a lot of sense. Please send me a copy.
—M.A., Ithaca, New York

Could you send me information about the United Church of God in my area? I have been searching for a church home that worships on the Sabbath and have not found what I am looking for. It is important that it is Bible-based and man's ideas haven't contaminated its teachings. Thank you so much for supporting me in my spiritual growth.
—J.K., Nampa, Idaho
