When the Gospel is Preached to All, September 30
And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for
a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
Matthew 24:14
.
“As my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.” We are to bear as
definite a testimony to the truth as it is in Jesus, as did Christ and His
apostles. Trusting in the efficiency of the Holy Spirit, we are to testify of
the mercy, goodness, and love of a crucified and risen Saviour, and thus
be agents through whom the darkness will be dispelled from many minds,
and cause thanksgiving and praise to ascend from many hearts to God.
There is a great work to be done by every son and daughter of God
Those who will not accept the last solemn message of warning sent
to our world, will pervert the Scriptures; they will attack the character,
and make false statements in regard to the faith and doctrines of the
advocates of Bible truth. Every possible means will be employed to
divert the attention. Shows, games, horseraces, and various other kinds of
amusement will be set in operation. An intense power from beneath will
stir them up to oppose the message from heaven.... Let us rally under the
banner of Prince Immanuel, and in the name and strength of Jesus press
the battle home.
There are souls perishing. They must know the terms of salvation....
Many appear to be entombed in the darkness of ignorance, intrenched
behind an invincible barrier, ... but bear in mind that heavenly intelligences
are working with the human agents. The Holy Spirit can pierce the
stronghold of unbelief. Jesus is leading His army to the field of battle....
Our General leads to victory
When the members of the church of God do their appointed work in the
needy fields at home and abroad, in fulfilment of the gospel commission,
the whole world will soon be warned, and the Lord Jesus will return to
this earth with power and great glory
God will do the work if we will furnish Him the instruments
