The text
After an added quote from GC 464 the text of the magazine is:-
"Thousands who yearn for the fulness of Christ, with complete freedom to worship Him as they desire, assembled in Seattle, Washington July 2-6 for the tenth annual convention of the Full Gospel Businessmen's Fellowship International.
"Christ met the people's faith in a mighty way as He poured out His Holy Spirit upon them.
"If you were there, you know what happened. The power of God could be felt as He swooped down in the flesh! If you were not fortunate enough to attend this great meeting, then you undoubtedly missed something that could have meant the highlight of your own Christian experience!
"The Holy Spirit came down upon the people, assembled with one accord in the grand ballroom of the Olympic Hotel. Scores received the precious baptism of the Holy Ghost and spoke in tongues, as the early Christians did on the Day of Pentecost almost 2,000 years ago! (Acts 2:4).
"There were representatives of many faiths assembled for a common purpose: Presbyterians, Episcopalians, Dutch Reformed laymen, Methodists, Lutherans, Nazarenes, Baptists, Seventh Day Adventists - and hosts of others - all meeting at the feet of Jesus!
"The thing that made this FGBMFI convention different is that the people there didn't let denominational affiliations or traditional ties keep them from unity of Spirit and purpose. On the contrary, where else could you go to find such cordiality and unity among peoples of varying faiths and worship habits? When you step inside a Full Gospel Businessmen's meeting, brother, you soon know that everybody [their emphasis] are kindred spirits, worshipping Jesus Christ of Nazareth - our common "meeting ground" among ALL Christians!
"The Holy Spirit is breaking down the denominational barriers. As Rev. Oral Roberts - who will speak to us - is used by God to bring healing to the nation, the FGBMFI is bringing the Holy Spirit to the nation. The Seventh Day Adventists are bringing us prophecy. This fellowship is spearheading the greatest revival the world has ever known.
"A powerful Jesus.
Dr. Roy Allen Anderson, of the Seventh Day Adventists, Washington, D.C., delivered a powerful sermon on Jesus during the Tuesday morning meeting July 3. Said Dr. Anderson: 'Christianity is a religion of Joy. We need the Holy Spirit in our lives. Only He will set any restrictions that we might need.
" 'The religion of Jesus Christ sets the soul on fire. Anybody who really sees Jesus is never the same again'.
Dr. Anderson said further that the end of all things is at hand, and he warned that 'what we do we must do quickly'."
The text for the pictures, from left to right and down is:
