Dear Friends of "Dial Daily Bread":
The Day of Pentecost marked the glorious beginning of the proclamation of Christ’s life, death, and resurrection, and the inauguration of His High Priestly ministry. Paul says the message went to all the world in that first generation of Christ’s followers (see Col. 1:6; 1 Thess. 1:8).
What will now mark the ending of that ministry? If the proclamation of the message marked its beginning, it is reasonable to conclude that again the proclamation of the message will mark its ending.
Since all the time prophecies of both Daniel and the Revelation have already been fulfilled, we are living in Daniel’s “time of the end” when we can see that the final proclamation of the saving message is due now. Jesus said that just before the “end,” “this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world as a witness unto all nations” (Matt. 24:14). The word “witness” means that not everyone is going to believe the message, but God will see to it that everyone has had the completely fair opportunity to hear and respond to the life-or-death message.
The message says “the hour of His judgment is come” (Rev. 14:6), that is, the “hour” of the great Day of Atonement which was prefigured in the Hebrew annual “cleansing of the sanctuary” (Dan. 8:14, KJV; Lev. 16). Life today is more solemn than ever in the past.
Revelation says that the proclamation of “the hour of His judgment is come” will grow to “lighten the earth with glory” (18:1-4). It’s due now—to penetrate Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, all Christian faiths; taking part in that great movement will make life worth living!
