Now if this chronology is correct, that means Christ
shall return some very few years PRIOR to 1982! NO MAN KNOWS THE
DAY, HOUR, OR YEAR OF CHRIST'S RETURN. But we CAN know exact dates
of one or two other events. Jesus also still has to complete the
confirming of the COVENANT---the NEW Covenant---with Israel for 3«
years after He comes, according to the prophecy of Daniel's "70
weeks." (Dan. 9:24-27). The last half of that 70th "week" (actual
7 years) remains to be fulfilled after Christ's return. He was
"cut off" by being crucified after 3« years of confirming the
covenant (Rom. 15:8 and Dan. 9:27). We do not know, however,
whether this last 3« years to take place after Christ's coming will
coincide with the period required for the Gentile nations to come
to acknowledge Christ as WORLD RULER.
Then, besides, there are two other 3«-year periods
prophesied to occur prior to Christ's coming. The first of these
begins with the invasion of America and Britain in World War 3.
THEREFORE we have a TOTAL OF THREE 3«-year periods, or 10« years,
which MUST occur between the invasion of America and the ending of
the Times of the Gentiles. The invasion of the United States with
HYDROGEN-bombs that shall destroy our cities, therefore, must BEGIN
at least 10« years PRIOR to the ending of the Times of the
Gentiles! IF THE TIMES OF THE GENTILES END IN 1982, in October, as
Mr. Hoeh has it figured, THE INVASION OF AMERICA AND THE GREAT
TRIBULATION MUST BEGIN NOT LATER THAT MARCH-APRIL, 1972!
It could begin sooner. This date is hypothetical, not
definite. But apparently it cannot begin LATER than that date.
One chronology sets this disaster TEN YEARS from now! But March-
April, 1972 is the LATEST POSSIBLE DATE.
NOW SEE WHAT THAT MEANS! That date is exactly 19 years
from March-April this year, 1953! It is exactly 19 years---ONE
COMPLETE CYCLE---from the time the FIRST cycle of this great work
of God ended!
WHAT A TREMENDOUS SIGNIFICANCE THAT HAS! Think of it!
God allowed us one exact complete cycle of 19 years for proclaiming
CHRIST'S GOSPEL to all North America---all the United States,
Canada, and Mexico! At the START of the second 19-year cycle, GOD
OPENED THE DOOR to ALL EUROPE! And the MILITARY INVASION that
shall END all true Gospel preaching is apparently to strike at the
precise END of this second 19-year period---the spring of 1972---
EXACTLY 19 YEARS FROM NOW!
It took one cycle of 19 years to spread this work to all
North America. There remains exactly one more 19-year cycle to
spread it to ALL THE WORLD!
Surely I have NEVER before had anything so startling---so
SIGNIFICANT---to write to you Co-Workers! Can you grasp the
MEANING of it? Do you realize just HOW SHORT a time 19 years
really is? To me it seems this past 19 years, since the work on
the radio and by printing press began, has whizzed by like a jet
plane. Yes, IT IS TIME FOR US TO WAKE UP! Time is short. We have
a herculean task ahead!
