The Gospel Preached to the Whole World

And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come. http://bible.cc/matthew/24-14.htm

And the gospel must first be preached to all nations. http://bible.cc/mark/13-10.htm

Their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world. http://bible.cc/psalms/19-4.htm


For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people's sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.
