[quote:BibleLight:MV8yMTUzMjc2XzM2NDgyMDU5XzlENjg4NDhC] [quote:DGN:MV8yMTUzMjc2XzM2NDc5NDAyXzI1OTUxMTRB] Charles Russell realized a great global invitation to God's kingdom must be preached in all the earth before the end of Satan's reign of terror; "All authority has been given me in heaven and on the earth. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded YOU. And, look! I am with YOU all the days until the conclusion of the system of things.” Mt28:19[/quote] In 1901, Russell wrote: [quote]We hold that the commission rightly read and understood has been fulfilled; that the message of Christ and the Kingdom has been proclaimed, directly or indirectly, with more or with less force and energy, in every nation under heaven, and that as a result some from every nation have been made disciples; and that incidentally a "witness" has been given to all the peoples of the earth respecting the redemption and the divine provision for salvation through the Redeemer. Of these disciples gathered out of all nations by the message of the Lord a "little flock" will be found to whom it will be the Father's good pleasure to give the Kingdom, in joint-heirship with Jesus in glory as the Seed of Abraham, through whom, in the Millennial age to follow this, all the families of the earth shall be blessed. From this standpoint only can our Lord's commission be properly appreciated and its fulfilment recognized. [/quote] http://www.mostholyfaith.com/bible/reprints/Z1901MAY.asp#R2809:8 [/quote]
