Glad Tidings (full title: Glad Tidings of the Kingdom of God) is a free Bible magazine published monthly by the Christadelphians (Brethren in Christ). The stated aims of the magazine are:
-
- to encourage study of the Bible as God's inspired message to men;
- to call attention to the Divine offer of forgiveness of sins through Jesus Christ;
- to warn men and women that soon Christ will return to Earth as judge and ruler of God’s world-wide Kingdom.
To this end the magazine contains articles such as A Closer Look at Bible Prophecy, Jews and Arabs to Find Lasting Peace and Three Steps to a Happier Life (titles all taken from the 1456 issue, pictured above).
A free six month subscription is available. Current and back issues can also be viewed online.
Famous quotes containing the words glad tidings, glad and/or tidings:
“Let no one think that I do not love the old ministers. They were, probably, the best men in their generation, and they deserve that their biographies should fill the pages of the town histories. If I could but hear the “glad tidings” of which they tell, and which, perchance, they heard, I might write in a worthier strain than this.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“There ain’t nothing more to write about, and I am rotten glad of it, because if I’d a knowed what a trouble it was to make a book I wouldn’t a tackled it, and I ain’t agoing to no more.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“Flash’d from his bed the electric tidings came,
He is no better, he is much the same.”
—Anonymous.
