Letters from Our Readers

Readers of The Good News share their thoughts.

"America at a Dangerous Crossroads"

The author wrote an astounding article that every American should read. My candid opinion is that a good many Americans today just don't concern themselves as to what is happening with the power struggles that are occurring. China has announced the capability of destroying satellites with guided missiles, which could be a serious threat to the U.S. military surveillance satellites. Russia has recently sold defensive missiles to Iran, which are considered to be the state of the art in defensive warfare.

Weaponry is being sold worldwide at an alarming rate. There are many terrorists living in the United States who are merely waiting for instructions. This country needs divine influence from God if we are to survive.

—D.E.E., Bountiful, Utah

I enjoyed your article. I am a Christian military member and have served in Iraq. The war on terrorism is of great interest to me as I have studied terrorism and counterinsurgency as part of my master's degree. I will likely go back to Iraq at least one more time before the conflict is over.

The problem in America is that everyone is seeking their own agenda. The news media will ignore the ignorance of the protestors' cause in order to point the finger at the Bush administration. America's main problem is the left and right wings of society focusing on their own agendas and ignoring what is best for the nation. The symbol of America is the bald eagle. The eagle has a left and a right wing. When these wings work together the eagle can fly and go where it wants. If the eagle's wings refuse to work together the eagle cannot fly. It cannot go in the direction it wishes.

The Good News

I am a Good News subscriber and read my Bible almost every day. Now that I am receiving your booklets, they are helping me to understand the Bible more. I find myself getting excited over something besides my children.

—N.G., Santa Clarita, California

I just wanted to thank you for the free magazines you send me. Many give a good talk about reaching the lost, but you folks put your money behind your talk. After I'm done with the material I pass it on to others. We have a lot of people in our church very interested in Bible prophecy.

—M.J., Internet

I want to thank you immensely for the wonderful, inspiring magazines I have received from you. They have touched me and helped me to understand the Word of God in ways I did not know were possible. My faith has been strengthened and renewed. You are doing Christ's work. I am so excited to start receiving the Bible Study Course you are offering.

—J.P., Glendale, Arizona

Bible Study Course

I am writing to you about lesson 4 of your Bible Study Course, "Why Does God Allow Suffering?" What a blessing it has been in my life. I am filled with hope and assurance again. I had been feeling out of place and lost. I can pray again and know that God listens, even to me.

—Z.M., Old Town, Florida

We also publish a free booklet under that same title, It is available free on request.

Letters from around the world

I am grateful to you for keeping me reading since I subscribed to The Good News. I have been searching for a way to know more about God, and reading The Good News is really helpful in understanding the Word of God and His plan for all His people. This magazine of understanding satisfies my spiritual hunger and thirst. I strongly believe that my knowledge of the Bible will help me to overcome numerous hardships and problems I face almost everyday.

I have received The Good News. Through it I have learned so many things about life, relations, prayer, dating, etc. I am sure that these magazines will help people to know the facts and realities of life. As a young person, I am really interested in them. I would like to receive the booklets and

—E.K.J., India

Your Web site is very helpful and informative. As a young Christian, I learned a lot from it. Last time I requested some of your publications and was very impressed when I checked my post office and saw two parcels containing them.

—M.M., Papua New Guinea

For several years I have received your Good News magazine. Please do not forget to continue sending it to me. I am a Lutheran pastor and have read your magazines and talked about them to several of my friends. Some have also requested a subscription. Having read your magazine through the years has made me think a lot. I want to continue reading it, studying the Bible and observing God's plan for His creation.

—O.C.D.E., Brazil

Reader changes his mind

Some time ago I wrote you for several of your publications, which you kindly sent me. At that time I had doubts about what your writers said and I asked you not to send me any more booklets. Since that time I have had more time to study your booklets and, more importantly, to pray about them. As the old saying goes: "A fool never changes his mind, but a wise man does."

—R.S., London, England

Readers in Canada

I was trying to find the July/August issue of The Good News that was sent to me last summer and could not find it. I wanted to read again your wonderful article "Our Amazing Spaceship Earth." Could you send me another copy? Also could I receive a few copies of to make available on my living room table when friends come over? Your magazine is very eye-opening and enlightening.

—Reader from Quebec

It is my pleasure to receive your magazine, and I am impressed with the articles. I hope to continue receiving it and would also greatly desire to read your booklet . As a pastor your magazine has been an inspiration to my ministry.

—D.H., Ontario

My husband and I have been greatly inspired by your magazine. It has given us things to ponder, meditate and pray about. May God bless you with your ministry.

—Reader from British Columbia

Finding a church congregation

Would you please find a United Church of God near me so I can attend and worship with other Christians who celebrate the festivals of the Bible and not of the world. I read all of the publications and really enjoy them.
