Excerpt
The whole world is now shaking with convulsions, preparatory to a tremendous event. This present world breakdown, with world economic collapse, social unrest, religious confusion, is merely the warning signal that the end of the present civilization is here. The Second Coming of Christ to establish a new order of world peace on Earth is near—much nearer than people think!
And speaking of His own second appearance on Earth, Jesus Himself asked, prophetically:
“When the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?”
When Jesus uttered those words He was looking into the future—into our very present generation which He clearly foresaw. And, foreseeing the almost total absence of faith in our time, He asked this question!
Certainly the world has almost lost sight of real faith. No wonder so few have any—no wonder so many say, “My faith isn’t very strong”—or, “I just can’t seem to work up the faith.” People today do not know what faith is, or why they do not possess it. Yet without faith none can even be saved!
When Jesus walked the earth in human flesh, He possessed faith!
Yet He said plainly, “Of myself, I can do nothing!”
Few realize that what He did—the miracles He performed—He did not do by any supernatural power of His own. Everything He did, every miracle He performed, was done literally through faith, setting us a beautiful example.
