I want to write to you today about a man God used powerfully, both in my life and in this whole world: Herbert W. Armstrong. He will undoubtedly be familiar to many of you. Today, January 16, is the anniversary of his death.
Mr. Armstrong was a prolific author, educator, philanthropist and minister. He taught the true causes of the problems facing humanity and their ultimate solutions. He published the Plain Truth magazine, read by 1 out of every 583 people on Earth, and broadcast the World Tomorrow television program from 382 television stations and 36 radio stations. More than 40 million of the many books and booklets he authored were distributed. He founded the Worldwide Church of God and established three campuses of the well-regarded Ambassador College. The Church had 725 congregations in 57 countries around the globe and a powerful work. Weekly worldwide attendance exceeded 130,000 people, and another 210,000 people donated money regularly. Serving them all were more than 1,200 ministers worldwide.
Whether or not people realize it, Mr. Armstrong’s life was a pivotal event in world history! Many prophecies prove that his ministry had to be fulfilled before Jesus Christ’s return. He preached the gospel message to “all nations” (Matthew 24:14). He was the man through whom God restored “all things” (Matthew 17:11)—all the foundational truths of the Bible—to prepare the way for the Second Coming!
