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:
“Jesus abolished the very concept of “guilt”Mhe denied any cleavage between God and man. He lived this unity of God and man as his “glad tidings” ... and not as a prerogative!”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“It is not quite the same when we are seventy-two as when we are twenty-seven; still I am glad of what is left, and wish we might both hold out till the victory we have sought is won, but all the same the victory is coming. In the aftertime the world will be the better for it.”
—Lucy Stone (1818–1893)
“God rest you merry, gentlemen,
Let nothing you dismay,
For Jesus Christ, our Saviour,
Was born upon this day,
To save us all from Satan’s power
When we were gone astray.
O tidings of comfort and joy!
For Jesus Christ, our Saviour,
Was born on Christmas Day.”
—Dinah Maria Mulock Craik (1826–1887)
