What work should the most faithful Christians be supporting in the 21st century? What was the "open door" that Jesus opened for the Philadelphians for? Did Herbert W. Armstrong say that door was for the Philadelphians to fulfill Matthew 24:14 to proclaim the gospel of the kingdom to the world as a witness? What did Luke and the Apostle Paul write about the open door? Is having literature in hundreds of languages helpful to assist in the fulfillment of Matthew 24:14, Matthew 28:19-20, Romans 11:25, and Revelation 7:9? Just what was the work according to Herbert W. Armstrong? When did he, Dr. Herman Hoeh, and others in the Church of God say the proclamation work was to end? Was that related to the Great Tribulation and a nuclear World War III? Were the Laodiceans prophesied to rise up, be the dominant Christians at the end, but with lukewarm efforts and priorities, while wanting to focus on taking care of themselves? Did the Radio Church of God also warn about that? Is the proclamation of the Philadelphian church supposed to last until about the time it is to flee to the "place of safety" in the wilderness? Are there analogies between the first and second temple and the work done under Herbert W. Armstrong and now the Continuing Church of God? What about Loma Armstrong's two-part dream? What about proclaiming the gospel through multi-media, radio, internet, literature, and personal visits? Will Philadelphian Christians be subject to persecution when some are used by God to "instruct many" per Daniel 11:33? Did Herbert Armstrong believe a "second work" would rise to effectively finish the short work of Romans 11:28? What are some part of the "final phase of the work"? Does the Continuing Church of God have the type of fruits that Jesus pointed to? Is supporting the proclamation work showing Philadelphian brotherly love? Was "Philadelphia" to continue per Hebrews 13:1? Is necessity laid upon the true Philadelphians to proclaim the gospel of the kingdom to the world as a witness? Is this a priority of the Continuing Church of God? Dr. Thiel addresses these matters and more by citing scriptures, historical records, and more!
