#16: This is Not God's World
Did you know that Christ never tried to reform or save this world when He came to Earth? Many people think that He did. Most even look at this world—as evil and as dangerous as it is—and assume that the world is getting better. They believe the world is evolving into something more pure and righteous with each passing day—an idea that has no basis in reality.
During the very last year of his long and productive life, Herbert W. Armstrong completed work on the most important project of his life—Mystery of the Ages, which serves as a magnificent summary of his 55-year ministry. One reason he wrote the book was so that Ambassador College might have a textbook for its second-year Bible class.
The other reason, as he explains in the “Author’s Statement” of Mystery of the Ages, had to do with a deeper understanding God had given him about mankind’s first parents in Genesis 2 and 3—that this world is cut off from God and His truth.
Today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show studies this mind boggling truth Herbert Armstrong made plain in Mystery of the Ages, which explains why the world is the way it is, how it came to this point, and where it is going.
