2312.—To the World in This Generation
What do you mean when you speak of preaching the Gospel to all the world in this generation? Explain clearly which generation. It means the generation of people who are living upon the earth at this time. Some of the very old may die; of course many others may die; but those in general who are living and in active work will see the Gospel go to all the world in their lifetime. It is questionable whether there is a country on the face of the earth which has not already received the Gospel to some extent, but it will go with far greater power, as indicated by the angel of Revelation 18. The earth shall be lighted with its glory and then Christ shall come.
