2nd Coming of Christ by -D. Yamartino- 6 Para
Chapter of  19

First Time Prophecy (14:4)

And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? (mat 24:3) (14:5) see

In answer to this question, Jesus prophesied:
And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. (mat 24:14) (14:6) see

A similar prophecy is found in Mark, wherein Jesus says: (14:7)

And the gospel must first be published among all nations. (mrk 13:10) (14:8) see

Note that Jesus says unto all nations, not unto all persons. Christian scholars recognize that it was sometime in the 1840's that the Gospel had reached all nations. It had reached even to the heart of Africa by 1844, the year of the birth of the Baha'i Faith. (14:9) 49 78
