But don't think the governments and peoples of the world will
welcome the returning Christ with outstretched open arms! They
will try to fight Him! They will be DECEIVED into supposing He is
the Antichrist! He will have to rule by divine supernatural FORCE!
You get a glimpse of it in the eleventh chapter of Isaiah--in the
14th of Zechariah--and many other prophecies.
And what will soon be the result?
Jesus Christ is not only going to straighten out world
conditions and stop all the wars. He is coming, also, to SAVE THE
WORLD--to change human nature! Here is a description: "And God
shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no
more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any
more pain: for the former things are (shall then be) passed away."
(Rev. 21:4.)
But HOW are you now helping bring this wonderful CHANGE?
Jesus Christ will not come until THE WAY HAS BEEN
PREPARED--until the world has first been WARNED! And YOU are
helping prepare the way--helping shout the GOOD NEWS of The WORLD
TOMORROW over every inhabited Continent--helping warn the world!
YOU are privileged to have a vital part in the very Work of God.
The same Jesus Christ who is soon coming as WORLD RULER is now
guiding, directing, heading THIS VERY WORK. Constantly we see the
now invisible but active and powerful HAND OF CHRIST in this Work.
There have been literally hundreds of incidents where the
UNSEEN hand of the living Christ has intervened, changed
circumstances, GUIDED this Work directly and supernaturally. Let
me give you just one or two examples:
For the past few years, The WORLD TOMORROW has been
broadcast WORLD-WIDE--over every inhabited continent on earth. But
we have not yet reached all nations. In 1960 our New York
advertising agent for overseas broadcasting and I traveled around
the world in an effort to get the broadcast on additional powerful
stations. But we haven't yet been able to reach the very IMPORTANT
nation, JAPAN, with Christ's Message for this hour. There are
super-power radio stations in Tokyo and other cities. They are
commercial stations. We could buy time on them. But we have to
reach Japan in THE JAPANESE LANGUAGE.
THAT WAS IMPOSSIBLE. The broadcasting had to be done by a
Japanese. He had to be a native-born Japanese who grew up in
Japan. It could not be, for example, a California-born Japanese-a
Nisei. The people of Japan would detect the difference in dialect
instantly. They would not listen to a Nisei. It had to be a
Japan-born Japanese. It had to be a Japanese experienced as a
radio speaker. But it had to be a CONVERTED Japanese--not to the
"missionary-converted" type of Christianity--but one converted by
the VERY GOSPEL CHRIST HIMSELF taught, as it is proclaimed on The
WORLD TOMORROW! Further, it had to be one trained IN AMBASSADOR
COLLEGE.
I said to our overseas advertising agent: "There is not one
