IN THESE words a special,
worldwide proclamation of the Gospel is brought to view.
It is the same work of which Christ spoke when He said,
in Matthew 24:14
---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 appears from the fact that the next event in the prophecy is the coming of Christ.
Revelation 14:14 And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on His head a golden crown, and in His hand a sharp sickle. 15 And another angel name out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to Him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in your sickle, and reap; for the time is come for You to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe. 16 And He that sat on the cloud thrust in His sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped."
