C. H. BENSON 1 ® Teacher of Child Study and PgcUjobj*. 8 Moody Bible institute, Chicago. >5 TEXT—This gospel of the kltvgsdora I shall be preached In all the worln fori a witness unto all nations; then shall ; the end coma Up'in the portals of glory In the old! homestead of heaven for a moment | we may imagine, §our risen Lord In earnest conversa tlon with the archangel. Gab riel. “Now that redemption has been purchased for the world,” the great angelic leader Is saying, “what plan have yon provided for the propagation of I i. the good news to ' all men?” “I have arranged with my disciples for that They are to he 'my witnesses.” "But suppose Peter goes fishing and John and James fall asleep?" Sadly and solemnly our Lord replies: ‘‘lf thdse men fall my work will fait I have no other plan.” i The work of Jesus Christ had been done and well done. When He bowed His head upon Calvary’s cross and cried: ‘‘lt Is finished 1* He became the author and finisher of our faith. But to His disciples In subsequent generations has been committed the task of proclaiming the good tidings of great Joy to all people. Until this Is fully accomplished the task cannot and will not be fully completed. In the consideration of this unfinished task there Is to be observed a fact, a field, a force and a finish. 1 First notice the fact, "This gospel of the kingdom.” The gospel Is not a supposition or a speculation. It Is a fact. Luke says he wrote facts that were delivered unto him by eyewit nesses. He insists that his gospel was built upon Infallible proofs. Peter snbstantlates his mission and his min- | .istry in his dying message. "We have < not followed cunningly devised fables | but were eyewitnesses of His majesty.*? ] Some people talk and write as though j the Bible were on trial today I The ] Bible has been tried and well tried, i After Its submission to a chain of j proofs, after Its survival of a crowd i of attacks, after Its substantiation by ! a cloud of witnesses; if the Bible Is i not a fact, nothing is a fact. I Second, notice the field, “Preached in all the world unto aU nations.” It , was the world that God so loved. It was Into aU the world that Christ sent His disciples. No person can be a follower of Jesus Christ until he recognizes the world as the field of his religion. He must think and talk and act in world terms. He must overcome racial prejudice and exclu sive selfishness. Racial prejudice and exclusive selfishness have more inter fered with the completion of the task than all the burnings of pagan and popish tyrants. Paul recognized the world as his field and if In all the years that have elapsed since his day the church might have more seriously considered his example the task would ‘ have been completed long ago. ! Third, notice the force, “This gospel shall be preached for a witness.” Christ said: “Ye shall be witnesses unto the uttermost parts of the earth.” The force Is the factor that conveys the glad tidings. The slogan of the largest Presbyterian church in the world is: ."The church Is our force; the world Is our field.” What sort of a world force Is my church? What sort of a world-witness am I proving to be? | A witness worth while must be a man of conviction. You cannot sway an indifferent, disinterested world un less you can testify lor Jesus Christ | with conviction. I A witness worth while must be a man under obligation. Paul said: “I am a debtor.” He acknowledged bis obligations to Jesus Christ and re joiced that his debt was payable In gospel currency. , j A witness worth while must be a ' man of enthusiasm. It Is not prayer that counts but passion In prayer. It Is not Bible reading. It is enthusiasm in reading. It was not Erasmus the learned but rough and homing Luther who shook all Germany. ! Fourth, notice the flnlah. "Then shall the end be.” The disciples under stood what was meant by the end. To them It meant the coming of the king dom long promised by prophets. To them _lt meant the coming es the King more precious than kingdom. Stimu lated by this blessed hope they set out to evangelize the world In their day and no generation has since so nearly succeeded. I Today you and I standing upon tHe portals ot the Twentieth century look upon | The task the oenturles might have done, | Now crowded In the hour of getting sun. I What we most need is to be re t minded that there Is an end and that It may be at our very doors. Never since the days of the apostles has the world been more united. Never has it been more accessible. Is It presump tuous for us to believe that the task may be completed In our day? What an opportunity! What a reponsibll ttyl Where will the end find you and me?
