Matthew 24:14 Meaning – For a Witness Unto All Nations

The preaching of the gospel wherever it comes proves a testimony to them to whom it comes, one way or other; that is, a testimony either of their decreed blessedness, if they receive it, or of their decreed perdition, if they reject it or do not believe it; for, It shall be preached for a testimony unto all nations.

Matthew 24:14 Meaning – Then Shall The End Come

And then shall the end come. This “then” in Matthew is a very vague note of time, but it will be “not yet” (vs. 6).

Robertson, A.T. – Commentary on Matthew  in The Bible for Home & School  (1911)

Till the gospel be preached to all nations, so far as God has appointed, and till he have ended his work by the preaching thereof, the end of the world shall not be, but so soon as the Lord’s work by the gospel is ended in the world, then shall the end come.
