To every human being in the wide world who will give heed, we are to make plain the principles at stake in the great controversy–principles upon which hangs the eternal destiny of the soul. To the people far and near we are to bring home the question: “Are you following the great apostate in disobedience to God’s law, or are you following the Son of God, who declared, ‘I have kept My Father’s commandments’?” This is the work before us; for this our publishing institutions were established; it is this work that God expects at their hands. {7T 142.1}
The purpose of our Media Center is to publish the present truth for this time through the means of modern media. Jesus told us in Mat 24:14 “And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.” The word “preached” is translated from the Greek word “ke¯russo¯”, which means to herald (as a public crier), preach, proclaim, publish. In the gospel of Mark it says “And the gospel must first be published among all nations.” Mar 13:10
”As we are to herald (as a public crier) the gospel of the kingdom in all the world, the Media Center is the means to fulfill the mandate given to us by Jesus Christ.
The truth presented by the living preacher should be published in as compact a form as possible, and circulated widely. {PaM 116.3}
As John prepared the way for the first, so we are to prepare the way for the second, advent of the Saviour. Our publishing institutions are to exalt the claims of God’s downtrodden law. {7T 139.2}
