Opening Galaxies of Truth

AnAmazing Fact:Unphased by sunlight and atmospheric interference, radio telescopes are unveilingthe hidden deep of the cosmos. Unlike optical telescopes, which rely on visiblelight, radio telescopes detect radio waves emitted by celestial objects. Thesepowerful instruments have helped humans discover God’s distant pulsars, blackholes, and galaxies. The largestsingle radio telescope, the Aperture Spherical Telescope, is located in Guizhou,China. It boasts a 1,600-footdiameter dish!

  

Jamesfelt lost in the cosmos of his tumultuous life, one filled with repeated mistakes,and he was searching for meaning. His journey, much like the exploration ofspace, was filled with darkness—until a beacon of truth reached him through thesimple yet powerful medium of radio.

 

Did you know that more than 90 percent of Americans stilllisten to the radio each day?And with new technology, over 70 percent of people 12 years and older listen toonline audio. The influence of radio remains as strong as ever. At the sametime, the devil is throwing a lot of toxic trash onto the airwaves, making it hardfor seekers to hear the plain truth and be set free.

 

That’swhy I believe God still wants us to share Bible truth through radio broadcastslike Bible Answers Live, which has been opening up the mysteries ofScripture to searching hearts for 28 years! I get letters from all over aboutpeople finding God through Amazing Facts radio programs. Prison inmates tune infrom their cells. Families listen while driving to work and school. Truckerslook for something worthwhile to listen to during their long hauls.

 

ThroughChristian radio, you can cut through the static of Satan’s interference and helpmore people like James discover last-day truth and accept salvation in Christ! Letme tell you about how you helped him find cosmic truth…

 

False Relief

Jamesgrew up in a dysfunctional family. As a result, he never felt good enougharound people and took part in “many foolish pursuits” to cope with hisnegative feelings.

 

It’sa common story. Satan brings heartache through the chaos of broken, abusivehomes. He then offers vulnerable souls the illusion of relief through drugs,alcohol, and other worldly pleasures. But, as you and I know, “There is away that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death” (Proverbs16:25).

 

That’swhy sharing precious Bible truth over the airwaves is critical to catching theinterest of seekers looking for trustworthy answers and purpose. BibleAnswers Live first caught James’s attention because he could tell themessages were truthful. The way listeners called in and asked questions and thepersonal, biblical answers we shared gave him a “speck of hope.”

 

A Regular Listener

Overthe years, James listened occasionally. He even received the freeliterature that you provide on the radio program. At one point, the Holy Spiritconvicted him to listen more regularly. He finally realized that he needed totake to heart the messages he was hearing.

 

Afterlistening to more Amazing Facts, James took action. He humbled himself, repented,and asked for God’s grace. He shares, “Peace filled my heart. Praise God forHis longsuffering grace through Jesus.”

 

Amen!Today, through Christ, James is free of the bad habits the devil led him to. “Inow have a church family helping me grow.” What blessings from God you can sendover the air!

 

Hooked on Listening

WhenI began doing public evangelism years ago, there was never enough time to coverall the subjects. So I added a time in my programs for people to ask questionsfrom anywhere in the Scriptures. It turned out to be the most popular part of mypresentations!

 

Thanks to co-laboring friends like you today, BibleAnswers Live is heard on over 400 radio stations, including SiriusXM, LifeTalk,3ABN Radio, Strong Tower, the Salem Radio Network,and more! Plus,we’re on hundreds of affiliate stations globally that we cannot easily track.

 

Iam constantly awed by how God uses you and your generous gifts to lead peopleto Christ. One caller named Bill said, “Before I get to my Bible question, Ijust want to say that I was once an atheist, but then I started listening toyour program out of curiosity. I got hooked—now I’m a baptized believer!”

 

A16-year-old girl called in to tell me of her panic attacks when thinking about dyinglost and burning forever. But then she started listening to Bible AnswersLive and learned that God will not torture unrepentant sinners for alleternity. She said, “Listening to your program changed my whole perspective. Inow have peace.”

 

Thereare many more people to reach like James, Bill, and that young lady. How can wecut through more of the devil’s junk and help multitudes discover the galaxiesof truth waiting to be found?
