Education has become a factory of new knowledge. Yet human discontent, troubles, evils, are increasing in direct ratio with the increase of knowledge. Why?(excerpted from The Plain Truth, Aug./Sept. 1970)

Are the Ten Commandments ‘negative’ and therefore a wrong form of law?

The most important dimension in knowledge about sex and marriage had been missing—unpublished until this book.

Is marriage on the way out? Is adultery still wrong? Is the institution of the home, with its family life, to disappear from society? How and when did the institution of marriage originate? Does it, after all, serve any necessary purpose? This booklet takes an in-depth look at the institutions of marriage, the home, and family life—and reveals a startling, even shocking truth which has been altogether overlooked by science, by religion, by education and by society!

People of the Western world would be stunned—dumbfounded—if they knew! The governments of the United States, Britain, Canada, Australasia, South Africa would set in motion gigantic crash programs—if they knew! They could know! But they don’t! Why?

Don’t be too sure you know! Many professing Christians sincerely believe they have been “born again”—but do not understand what Jesus meant by those words. The true answer is not only surprising—it is startling!—the most important truth you can know, here made so plain you will understand!

Why is the world’s best-selling book held in awe by some, in passive discredit by others, and understood by virtually none?

This is the eye-opening story of the real gospel message of Jesus Christ—of how the missing dimension was withheld, and the whole world deceived. It’s positively astounding! It has remained undiscovered by science! No religion has revealed it! Higher education has never taught it! Is it possible the whole world has been deceived—regarding the awesome purpose of human life—about the way to world peace and how it will come? And could it be true that the real gospel message Christ brought from heaven revealed this missing dimension—but was suppressed? This is the eye-opening story of the real gospel message of Jesus Christ—of how this missing dimension was withheld, and the whole world deceived.

Does it make any difference which days we observe—or whether we keep them? Does the Bible establish whether we are to keep certain days holy to God? Were these days given to ancient Israel only? Are they binding today only on the Jewish people, while Christians are commanded to keep holidays such as Christmas?

Can the existence of God be scientifically proved? Where did the first life come from? Can we know whether God possesses mind power?

Why are only the very few—women as well as men—successful in life? Just what is success? Here is the surprising answer to life’s most difficult problem, proving that NO HUMAN NEED EVER BECOME A FAILURE! All who have succeeded have followed these seven laws! The only way to success is not a copyrighted formula being sold for a price. You can’t buy it! The price is your own application of the seven existing laws.

Does it make any difference which day we observe—or whether we keep it? Does the Bible establish Sunday as the Lord’s day? Was the Sabbath given for the Jewish people only—while Christians are commanded to keep Sunday as the Lord’s day?
