Light on a New World is a free magazine on Bible topics published around six times a year in A5 size and about 30 pages but the special issues can be larger. The Christadelphians believe the Bible (Old and New Testaments) to be the wholly inspired and infallible Word of God. Its principal theme is the salvation of mankind through the saving work of the Lord Jesus Christ and the setting up of the kingdom of God under his rule when he returns to the earth. Light on a New World is published to provide a better understanding of this true Christian hope. We encourage every one to read their Bible via the Daily Bible Reading Tables and if you want a deeper study of fundamental Bible topics join in the free Bible Correspondence Course. This magazine supported and written by the members of Dawn Fellowship and published by the Bexley Christadelphian Ecclesia by:
