The Conference Message 245
8. We believe in the great commission which our Lord has given to
His Church to evangelize the world, and that this evangelization is
the supreme task of believers.
9. We believe in the second coming of our Lord Jesus Christ; that
God "hath appointed a day in which He will judge the world in
righteousness by the man whom He hath ordained, whereof He hath
given assurance unto all men, in that He hath raised Him from the
dead" (Acts 17:31); that this coming of our Lord in its imminence
is "the blessed hope" of believers; that the day of judgment being
like the day of grace an era of time, will include the glorious events
of the resurrection of the believing dead, the glorification of living
believers, the manifestation of Christ and His saints for world judg-
ment and reign of righteousness, and the judgment of the Great White
Throne, in which the wicked dead and fallen angels will receive
their final doom.
10. We believe that human character in its attitude toward Christ
assumes conditions of permanence; that there is a heaven of blessed-
ness for the righteous in the unshadowed presence of God, and a hell
of conscious loss and punishment for the wicked, and that these states
are permanent, eternal.
Furthermore, we exhort the people of God in all denominations to
stand for these great truths so much rejected in our day and to
contend earnestly "for the faith which was once for all delivered unto
the saints."
