Dear Friend, Greetings from warm and sunny
Florida. We hope to see many of you in our state next month
at the International Christian Retail Show (ICRS) in Orlando—July 14-17. Please
stop by our booth (#601), which will be right in front of
you as you go through the convention's main entrance.
One of our Pure Gold Classics,
The Fourfold Gospel by
A.B. Simpson, concludes with these words: “So I would say,
if this precious little secret of ‘Christ in you’ will help
you, you may have it. May you make better use of it than I!
I feel I have only begun to learn how well it works. Take it
and go on working it out, through time and eternity—Christ
for all, grace for grace, from strength to strength, from
glory to glory, from this time and even forevermore.” (From
The Fourfold Gospel by A.B. Simpson; ISBN:
978-088270336-7; $14.99.) My friend, this is my prayer for
you—that you will experience the life of Christ within you.
Many of us know who we are in Him. But do we truly
understand who and what He is within us? The Bible says, “To
whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of
this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the
hope of glory” (Colossians 1:27, KJV). Let His resurrection
power stir you up to do great exploits in His name.
Pure Gold Classics Our signature line is our
Pure Gold Classics series—it has more than thirty books by
great Christian writers of the past. Let me encourage you to
learn the principles of the Kingdom of God from these
courageous and devoted men and women of God who are still
speaking dynamic truths to the Body of Christ.
Pure Gold
Classics have an eight-point advantage over other classics:
sensitively revised in modern English, audio-excerpts CD,
color timeline, detailed indexes, author biographies,
beautifully illustrated, in-depth Bible study, an
ever-expanding collection. Speaking of the latter
advantage, I am happy to report that we will be presenting
two new classics at the ICRS Convention:
-
Walking With God—The Andrew Murray Trilogy on
Sanctification by Andrew Murray. (ISBN:
978-0-88270-474-6; $14.99.) This is actually three
Murray classics in one—Waiting on God, Working for God,
and Be Perfect.
-
The Holy Spirit—Who He Is and What He Does by
R.A. Torrey. (ISBN: 97800-88270-473-0; $14.99.) Torrey’s
teaching on the person and work of the Holy Spirit has
brought thousands of sinners to Christ through the years
and great spiritual power to believers. Your bookstore
customers will surely want this great work for their
collection.
In the near future, we will be adding works by Billy
Sunday, John Newton, Andrew Murray, and others to our
Pure Gold Classics.
Steve Becker Has Been Appointed to the CBA
Advisory Committee
We are pleased to be able to announce the appointment
of Steve Becker, Vice President of Sales and
Marketing/COO, to the CBA Advisory Committee. We are
proud of you, Steve, and know that you will continue
your outstanding service to Christ in this new capacity.
Name-the-Theme-of-Our Booth Contest
I’m sorry to say that we still do not have a winner
for our "Name-the-Theme-of-Our-Booth Contest." Several
of you have sent in good guesses, and we want to thank
you for your participation. You still have time to enter
this contest; we will continue to accept your
submissions until June 30, 2008. The winner will receive
a copy of each of our Top Twenty books! Please send your

ICRS Assistance
As I mentioned in last month’s newsletter, we will be
blessing five bookstores with $500.00 each to help with
traveling expenses to next month’s show. We are doing
this to encourage your attendance at the convention. If

regarding the five bookstores on June 16, 2008.

A Blessed Summertime
As I conclude this newsletter, I want
to wish you a very happy summertime. I
hope you will come by our booth (#601)
at the ICRS Convention next month; I
look forward to meeting you there.
I opened this newsletter with a
quotation from one of our
Pure Gold
Classics. To close it here is a
quotation from
God of All Comfort
by Hannah Whitall Smith (ISBN:
0-88270-103-7; $13.99). She writes, “How
can any of us dare to question or doubt
God’s love? And, since He loves us, He
cannot exist and fail to help us. Do we
not know by our own experience what an
imperative necessity it is for love to
pour itself out in blessing on the ones
it loves; and can we not understand that
God, who is love, who is, if I may say
so, made out of love, simply cannot help
blessing us. We do not need to beg Him
to bless us; He simply cannot help it.
“Therefore, God is enough! God is
enough for time; God is enough for
eternity. God is enough!”
May He fill you will all His
sufficiency this summer and forever.
Paul writes, “And God is able to make
all grace abound toward you; that ye,
always having all sufficiency in all
things, may abound to every good work”
(2 Corinthians 9:8, KJV).
Many blessings,
Lloyd B. Hildebrand
