Advent Books Update

Dear Brothers & Sisters

It is with great joy that I write to you to let you know that we have had over 380 amount of replies from people in the NW of England wanting copies of The Great Controversy – Praise God! But please do keep praying as we pray that many more of these souls who have received the leaflets will respond to this message of mercy.

Of the 384 replies we have received, 182 wanted also the postal Bible Studies. Yes 182 people wanting to know more from the Bible! They will be receiving the Three Angels message every two weeks until they complete their course. We feel that these people who ask for the Bible studies are the ones who are really serious about finding the Truth.

NEWS Flash

-- One of the people who requested a GC and postal Bible studies is a “Reverend” in Glasgow. Recently he liased with the Bible school asking if they minded if he copied the lessons as he was studying these with his congregation. Praise God a leader of another church, teaching the SDA message to his congregation.

-- We recently received another letter from someone in the East of England saying:

“Dear Sir or Madam

About 2 years ago a lady was in the area giving everyone a chance to have the free Book The Great Controversy. I wondered if it was still available for a very dear friend of mine. I have enjoyed reading this book and it has brought me closer to our God…. I am gaining knowledge, wisdom and revelation. Such a wonderful little book. I would love to have a copy, We are both born again Christians, and would be truly blessed if you still have a copy”

Praise God - the work a dear sister did 2 years ago is bringing in more fruit.

-- Another exciting happening. We learnt recently that a man from the Channel Islands, who had requested the GC over a year ago, has recently started the postal Bible course (we re-advertise this course when we send out the book and this gentleman had requested the lessons from this advertisement). He had written to the Bible school saying that some time ago he had felt convicted to stop going to church on Sunday. Lets pray he will now be convicted to start keeping the Sabbath.

-- Also a lady who had started the Bible course over 20 weeks ago has recently completed the Sabbath card requesting that she start this course as well. When we send out The Great Controversy, we also enclose the four Bible courses, which are offered by the Bible correspondence School – Truth for Today; Remember (about the Sabbath); Health and Hope; and Death and Beyond. “Cast thy bread upon the waters and after many days it shall return unto you”. Praise the Lord.

-- One final note – on the back of a reply slip were the words “Can’t wait to read it” (The Great Controversy). This goes to show how effective the leaflet is.

DO YOU LIVE IN AMERICA?

As many of you know from reading our previous updates, we have recently had 20,000 copies of The Great Controversies printed in the USA. These books are presently being shipped over to the UK and will arrive here at Advent Books this coming Thursday.

YOUR HELP IS NEEDED

The printer wanted 34% down payment, which has now been paid and then another 34% once we receive the books and then the remainder of the payment 60 days after the delivery. To date the down payment has been paid and we have $3,131.06 ready for the second payment, but we need to raise another $6,116.94 for the 13th of March. For those of you who wish to help this project please contact me and I will ask you to send your donation directly to the printers (making sure it is marked ADVENT BOOKS) and this will save having to incur losses when the moneys are changed to £’s and then back to $’s.

PRAY PRAY PRAY

As I write this, another 400,000 homes are receiving The Great Controversy leaflet giving the people who live in them, a chance to receive this timely message. Please pray that they will be receptive to the invitation and that many replies will be received.

It would be good to hear from you. Please do send me an e-mail.

May God bless you each abundantly!

In His Service,

Jonathan Bennett

Precious Counsel:
“This is a time for everyone to come up to the help of the Lord, to the help of the Lord against the mighty. The forces of the enemy are strengthening, and as a people we are misrepresented. We desire the people to become acquainted with our doctrines and work. We want them to know what we are, and what we believe. We must find our way to their hearts. Let the army of the Lord be on the ground to represent the work and cause of God. Do not plead an excuse. The Lord has need of you. He does not do His work without the co-operation of the human agent. Go to the camp meeting, even though you have to make a sacrifice to do so. Go with a will to work. And make every effort to induce your friends to go, not in your place, but to go with you, to stand on the Lord's side and obey His commandments. Help those who are interested to attend, if necessary providing them with food and lodging. Angels who are commissioned to minister to those who are heirs of salvation will accompany you. God will do great things for His people. He will bless every effort to honor His cause and advance His work.” {6T 40}
