Listener Responses - January 1954

PHILIPPINES

"Allow me to express my profound thanks for showing me the way to salvation. After reading and reading its (Bible) contents I feel the thrill of joy and peace in heart. I know now that only the Lord Jesus can save me to the uttermost."

PHILIPPINES

"For a long time now I was trying to write you but every time I start my writing I can't think of what word I would begin. Yet because of my sincere desire to tell you how your radio broadcast helped us in a spiritual way as well as in a material way. For more than a year now since she has been hearing (its my sister I'm telling you) your broadcast, a lot of changes has been shown in her life. My sister is seven years now sick of T.B. and medicine has no more effect in her and the hope left in us were only the will of God. So hearing from your radio broadcast things in the house has changed us, for we feel now the happiness which was absent from us a long time. We enjoy life now for we do know that we are saved in believing in our Lord Jesus Christ, for He is the Way, and the Life and no man cometh to the Father except through Him. I can't find no more words to express our profound gratitude for the great blessing bestowed on us by Him Who said 'Come to Me, and I will give you rest' and which we felt His nearness thru your broadcasts."

PHILIPPINES

"Regarding the change of my life since I was studying this course, I have a great change in my life. I am glad to let you know that I have ' learned so many things since I am receiving lessons (Bible School of the lair) about the Bible. Before I so not like to hear words about the Bible, whenever I can hear someone speaking about Holy Scripture, that is my chance to ridicule people spreading the gospel. But now that I was converted to believe on the Bible for Salvation ... I know that I was a great sinner and I want to be saved."

PHILIPPINES

"May this letter reach you in Peace! I'm so grateful to our Lord and to all the staffers of the Bible School of the Air for leading me to the path of salvation which is the most important thing , in our life."

PHILIPPINES

"Thanks a lot that you didn't hesitate to send me your first and second lessons on the Bible School of the Air, though I am not of your faith. I am a Moslem boy but I want also to know about Christian religion ... that I might know which religion ligion is the best ... There must be only one which is the best, for we have only one God, the Creator."

PHILIPPINES

"I've heard from the broadcast of our radio at home, that if anybody wants to be near God, must send a letter to DZAS Manila and in return he will received something to be read about God. Is it true? Would you mind also sending one copy of that? I hope so."

FORMOSA (Taiwan)

"19th Chapter of the Bible says: 'The greatness of God reveals His method of teaching and spreading His words day in and day out, night into night, without audible sound or spoken words.' It was a little difficult to understand that sentence before. Now, we thank God for showing us what this sentence . really means. I have heard your broadcast very often ever since I installed a short wave receiver in my room. Such beautiful music!

FORMOSA (Taiwan)

"I am a young man of 27, I came to Formosa in 1937. I was baptized in China in 1935, however, I am ashamed of not having lived a full life as God wishes and spread His words for Him."

FORMOSA (Taiwan)

"Please forgive me for writing this letter to you without proper introduction. Are you surprised? Please don't, because this is God's arrangement. Just opposite from you is a little island of Free China-Formosa. There are many honest believers and followers of Christ here. When we learned that you were an international broadcast of the Gospel, we were most happy and we sensed His Greatness. Just recently however, we received your broadcast. We hope that we will always hear your international broadcast of the Gospel and your Chinese language broadcast. We thank you for your wonderful gift to us and we hope you will always keep on teaching us."

INDIA

"I write to convey my fervent appreciation of your regular spiritual programmes that are broadt cast from your station. They are so very enrichening to the soul and consoling in these turbulent times, that it has become a regular habit for me and my family to gather round the radio and await eagerly for the programmes to come thru. Not only my family but also my neighbors who are not fortunate enough to possess receivers gather around in my home to listen to these pros grammes from your station.

INDIA

"I was overjoyed to listen to the Malayalam service from your station. Being a Malayalee myself, hailing from Cochin in South India, this was 'Manna' to me. God,be praised for His blessing that I am able to listen to these precious broadcasts."

MALAYA

"I have been thoroughly enjoying your broadcasts that I cannot but write to tell you about it. I have also informed friends about this station and would thus greatly appreciate your kindness by your sending me ten copies of your daily pro' gramms. Your broadcasts are very clear ... I am now a more regular listener than I used to be and it gives me pleasure to hear our Savior, Christ Jesus our Lord being preached to all corners of this world."

JAPAN

"I have been continue to listen of your broadcasting and I would like to hear it occasionally. My religion is Buddhist but I make it a rule to read the Bible a few page every day."

JAPAN

"Now that we Japanese can enjoy foreign programs without permission, your program has become a part of my daily life."

CEYLON (Sri Lanka)

"Although I was born a Christian, I did not have much faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, but today I accidently happened to tune my radio to the soul inspiring message and after listening to this message I knew that there is One to Whom I can look upon in time of worry and anxiety. The New Year's resolution that I made today is to pray and believe in the Lord Jesus who died for me."
