Letters From Our Readers

Readers of The Good News share their thoughts.

Issue gives many answers

I received the September-October issue and enjoyed it very much. So did my husband. We are requesting that you send this magazine to us on a regular basis. Thank you for your honesty and for revealing what is going on around the world. You give us many answers to the numerous questions we have in understanding this sin-saturated world and to allay the many fears that plague us. Please keep up the good work. We need it desperately.

—Mrs. L.J., Estill Springs, Tennessee

Articles used in HIV/AIDS program

The Good News issue titled "Marital Happiness: The Choice Is Up to You" reached me at an appropriate time when I was organizing a trainers' program for HIV/AIDS peer educators. I have incorporated the articles "The Disturbing Fruits of Premarital Sex" and "Why Isn't Sex Safe?" into my training program as these were informative and relevant to it. I wish to take this opportunity to convey my sincere word of gratitude and appreciation for this valuable information at no cost.

—N.A., Papua New Guinea

The Book of Revelation Unveiled

I recently ordered The Book of Revelation Unveiled. What an immense amount of precise information! I just wanted to let you know how wonderful it was to stumble upon your Web site. I have never found such biblically accurate and insightful information before. What a blessing it is that you offer this at no cost or fee.

—T.M., Internet

Profiles of biblical characters

Thanks for your kind reminder to renew my subscription to The Good News. I have a suggestion. Could you edit some Bible stories to tell about the relationships between the huge numbers of characters in the Bible?

—X.H., Republic of China

Since you have Internet access, you might want to access our Good News Website, which has a series of articles called "Profiles in Faith." It covers most of the major characters in the Bible.

Truth still being taught

I had the privilege of reading several of your free booklets while I was incarcerated for drug use. I was released and tried a few local churches and television ministries. I must say I was appalled by the things I heard.

Now for a year and six months I have been reading the Bible for what it is, not from some denominational twist. Needless to say, I was shocked at the perversion of truth out there and the traditions of men that are followed in today's churches. After reading your publications, I was happy to discover that there is truth still being taught. You have lifted my faith when I was beginning to have doubts.

—M.J., Silverstrand Beach, California

Comments from around the world

I accidentally came across your Good News magazine recently and found it very informative. I highly appreciate your creating such a conducive context in which people can familiarize themselves with the latest developments in science and technology along with religion. Your publication is a magazine of understanding in the true sense of the word, be it scientific or religious. It compares the science and religious worlds and shows us that God will finally prevail.

—T.D., Ethiopia

Thank you for sending me my first copy of The Good News. It is really Bible-based and helps me to know more about God and His plan here on earth. I have been searching for a way to know more about God, and this magazine is the solution God made to satisfy my spiritual hunger and thirst. Clear explanations of Bible references make it easier for me.

—C.M., Beirut, Lebanon

I first read your booklets about a month ago. They are very informative and helpful in my everyday life. Now I really need your magazine. It is a great chance for me to detect biblical truth and study the Bible. I strongly believe that my knowledge of the Bible will help me to overcome numerous hardships and problems I face almost every day.

—L.C., Russia

I have just received my issue with the notification that unless I renew, it would be the last issue sent to me. Not receiving The Good News would be a disaster, and I hereby respectfully request that you retain me as a subscriber. I am very grateful for the high moral values that you stand for. We need more people in this sad country of ours to speak out against those that transgress God's commandments.

—J.C.K.P., South Africa

We have gladly renewed your subscription.

I am grateful to the United Church of God for keeping me reading every two months since I subscribed to The Good News. I go to church on Saturday. At times I didn't have the courage to answer biblical questions, but ever since I started reading your magazine I've become very alert and could even give a sermon.

—J.A., Kenya

Bible Study Course

I have just finished my first Bible Study Course lesson. It was fantastic! I have taken other courses that seemed to be a drudgery to get through, but your format kept me coming back. Thank you very much to all the people who put their time and effort into producing a great study course.

—D.T., Jackson, Missouri

My short letter is to say thanks very much from the bottom of my heart for the magazines and the Bible Study Course. Both have been a blessing to my family and me. The lessons are so inspiring and really make me want to learn more about the greatness and uniqueness of God Almighty.

—A.E.K., Belize

Thank you very much for the Bible study materials which are really helpful in understanding the Word of God. I would like to continue receiving them for further studies and would like to make a voluntary contribution to your church.

—A.D., Kuwait
