P. 235

Before  His  ascension  to  Heaven,  He  said  to


               them, “Ye shall receive power, after that the



               Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be


               witnesses unto Me both in Jerusalem, and in


               all  Judea,  and  in  Samaria,  and  unto  the


               uttermost  part  of  the  earth.”  “And,  lo,  I  am


               with  you  alway,  even  unto  the  end  of  the


               world.” Acts 1:8; Matthew 28:20.



               You have been witnesses, He said, of My life


               of  self-sacrifice  in  behalf  of  the  world.  You


               have  seen  that  all  who    come  to  Me,


               confessing their sins, I freely receive. All who


               will,  may  be  reconciled  to  God,  and  have


               everlasting life.




               To you, My disciples, I commit this message


               of  mercy.  It  is  to  be  given  to  all  nations,


               tongues, and peoples.



               Go to the farthest part of the habitable globe;


               but know that My presence will be there.
