THE POSSIBILITY OF EVANGELIZING THE WORLD IN THIS GENERATION IN VIEW OF THE ACHIEVEMENTS OF THE FIRST GENERATION OF CHRISTIANS One of the most distinguishing characteristics of early Christianity was the wide propagation of the Gospel. The age of the Apostles was pre-eminently a missionary age. The first generation of Christians did more to accomplish the evangelization of the accessible world than has any succeeding generation. This first generation may be regarded as the period extending from the Day of Pentecost to the destruction of Jerusalem, or from 30 A.D. to 70 A.D. The Acts of the Apostles contains the principal record of the achievements of the Christians during this period. It describes in bold outline the progress of Christianity from its beginnings at Jerusalem, the capital of the Jewish world, to its establishment at Rome, the capital of the heathen world. One of its objects is to show how the early Christians labored to extend Christ's Kingdom. Several of the Epistles also throw valuable light on the nature and extent of the evangelistic work of the time. The Apostolic Church has furnished many helpful lessons to the Christians of all subsequent generations; but in no respect is its example more instructive and more inspiring than in what it teaches concerning world-wide evangelization. The field of the Christian operations of the first generation, so far as authentic records inform us, was limited practically to the Roman Empire. That Empire reached from Scotland to the African deserts and to the cataracts of the Nile; and from the Atlantic to the valley of the Euphrates. It stretched from East to West a distance of over three thousand miles. It comprised Italy, the ruling state, and thirty-five provinces of which three...

Excerpt from The Evangelization of the World in This Generation The Gospel which is to be preached to every creature is the Gospel which St. Paul and the other early Christians preached. Its main out lines are set forth in the fifteenth chapter of the first letter to the Corinthians, in which St. Paul sums up the Gospel which he had preached to them I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures and that He was buried and that He hath been raised on the third day according to the scriptures.1 The many side-lights on the preaching of the Apostles given in the Acts and in the Epistles make plain that the substance and burden of their message or gospel were the facts about Jesus Christ - His wonderful life and works and teachings; His death for the remission of sins; His resurrection and ascension; His constant intercession; His sending of the Holy Spirit to convict, to trans form, to guide and to energize men; and the promise of His own return.

The perfect gift! A specially priced, beautifully designed hardcover edition of The Joy of the Gospel with a foreword by Robert Barron and an afterword by James Martin, SJ. “The joy of the gospel fills the hearts and lives of all who encounter Jesus… In this Exhortation I wish to encourage the Christian faithful to embark upon a new chapter of evangelization marked by this joy, while pointing out new paths for the Church’s journey in years to come.” – Pope Francis This special edition of Pope Francis's popular message of hope explores themes that are important for believers in the 21st century. Examining the many obstacles to faith and what can be done to overcome those hurdles, he emphasizes the importance of service to God and all his creation. Advocating for “the homeless, the addicted, refugees, indigenous peoples, the elderly who are increasingly isolated and abandoned,” the Holy Father shows us how to respond to poverty and current economic challenges that affect us locally and globally. Ultimately, Pope Francis demonstrates how to develop a more personal relationship with Jesus Christ, “to recognize the traces of God’s Spirit in events great and small.” Profound in its insight, yet warm and accessible in its tone, The Joy of the Gospel is a call to action to live a life motivated by divine love and, in turn, to experience heaven on earth. Includes a foreword by Robert Barron, author of Catholicism: A Journey to the Heart of the Faith and James Martin, SJ, author of Jesus: A Pilgrimage
