Christ as Coming King
The fourth aspect of the fourfold gospel was that of knowing Christ as the coming King. Simpson and his followers felt that, according to Matthew 24:14, the greatest unfulfilled prophecy and condition for the Lord's return was the evangelization of the world. Simpson declared, "Everyone must have the opportunity of salvation, and the Bride of Christ must be gathered in from all nations, tribes, and tongues, the fullness of the Gentiles brought in, and the way fully prepared for the Lord's return." This belief was the impetus for the expansive gospel work carried out by The Christian and Missionary Alliance both at home and abroad.
