Strife belongs in Satan's world. But NOT in GOD'S CHURCH!
In our booklet "This Is The Worldwide Church of God" it
speaks of how the Government of God in His Church "is producing
a bumper harvest of peace, happiness and abundant well-being,
worldwide." It tells of how a professor of Comparative Religions
at a great university visiting a Feast of Tabernacles service at
Penticton, Canada, with 7,000 in attendance, had said: "I have
never seen so many so universally happy as a whole."
And THAT HAS BEEN TRUE OF THIS, the WORLDWIDE CHURCH OF
GOD!
But, Brethren, Satan also saw that happy and peaceful
condition in our midst. That enraged him! He couldn't stand it
to see such harmony and peace and love in (but not OF) his world
of strife, rebellion, unhappiness and ugliness.
It seems very likely that we may have now come to the time
prophesied in Revelation 12:9-13: "And the great dragon was cast
out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth
the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels,
(demons) were cast out with him. ... Woe to the inhabitants of the
earth and the sea! For the devil is come down unto you, having
great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he
persecuted the woman ... (God's Church).
How did HE come to KNOW he had but a short time? Because
he knows that when "this Gospel of the Kingdom of God is being
preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations, THEN
SHALL THE END COME" -- yes, the END of Satan's world -- the END
of Satan's posing as GOD -- the god of this world.
For 40 years this great Work of God has been proclaiming
Christ's GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD. For 40 years, however,
we were unable to get that GOOD NEWS to such nations as China,
India, Russia, Indonesia, Japan, Bangladesh (Pakistan), the nations
of Southeast Asia, of Africa, of South and Central America. But
now that God is opening doors to those nations, Satan is flying
into a RAGE!
The governments in those nations -- starting with the
world's largest in population -- control radio and television --
means of mass communication to reach THEIR PEOPLE! Those nations
are totally unlike the United States in controlling radio and
television. Many of the most populous nations are up to 80%
illiterate -- people unable to read or write -- mentally unable
to GRASP or UNDERSTAND the Gospel. Those NATIONS can be reached
ONLY through the TOP levels.
For four or five years, now, God has been OPENING NEW DOORS
-- to meetings with kings, emperors, presidents, prime ministers,
and many high officials under them -- giving me ASTONISHING and
providential FAVOR, even to the point of AFFECTION, in their eyes.
He has caused this to lead to groups of 57 to 100 -- high in those
