Hastening of Our Lord Return

He will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a
short work will the Lord make upon the earth. Rom. 9:28.
In the prophecy of Jerusalem's destruction Christ said,
"Because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax
cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall
be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached
in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall
the end come." This prophecy will again be fulfilled. The
abounding iniquity of that day finds its counterpart in this
generation. So with the prediction in regard to the preaching
of the gospel. Before the fall of Jerusalem, Paul, writing by
the Holy Spirit, declared that the gospel was preached to
"every creature which is under heaven." Col. 1:23. So now,
before the coming of the Son of man, the everlasting gospel
is to be preached "to every nation, and kindred, and tongue,
and people." Rev. 14:6, 14. God "hath appointed a day, in
which he will judge the world." Acts 17:31. Christ tells us
when that day shall be ushered in. He does not say that all
the world will be converted, but that "this gospel of the
kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto
all nations; and then shall the end come." By giving the
gospel to the world it is in our power to hasten our Lord's
return. We are not only to look for but to hasten the coming
of the day of God. 2 Peter 3:12, margin. Had the church of
Christ done her appointed work as the Lord ordained, the
whole world would before this have been warned, and the
Lord Jesus would have come to our earth in power and
great glory.
It is the unbelief, the worldliness, unconsecration, and strife
among the Lord's professed people that have kept us in this
world of sin and sorrow so many years. . . .
We may have to remain here in this world because of
insubordination many more years, as did the children of
Israel; but for Christ's sake, His people should not add sin to

sin by charging God with the consequence of their own

wrong course of action.
