This Gospel Shall Be Preached in All the World and Then the End Shall Come

Happy Easter. God’s not dead!
I woke up with this in my head:
“…Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?” And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives you… this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.” (Matthew 24: 3,4,14).
I pictured Jesus defining, this gospel, by reading from the scroll of Isaiah:
He found the place where it was written:
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me,
Because He has anointed Me
To preach the gospel to the poor;
He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted,
To proclaim liberty to the captives
And recovery of sight to the blind,
To set at liberty those who are oppressed;
To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.” (Luke 4:18-19)
Then, it occurred to me that today, Resurrection Sunday, the super bowl of Sundays, church buildings won’t be filled like usual, but, across the airwaves, through every online venue available to mankind, like never before, today, this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations…
And then, after Jesus had finished reading from the scroll, he sat down and when all eyes were fixed on Him, He said:
 “Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.” (Luke 4:17-21) 

Today, if you hear His Voice, harden not your hearts (Hebrews 3:15)



Please don't hear what I'm not saying. I'm not saying today is the day of Jesus return. I am simply relaying what happened to me this morning when I woke up. And without apology, today is the day to be ready to meet the Lord...amen, the end.
