“The gospel is to be preached right up to the second coming of Christ or at least until probation closes just before Jesus returns. Since the gospel commission applies until the second Advent, the signs that accompany the preaching must also apply until Christ comes. And among the signs and promises is the one that says devils will be cast out wherever the gospel is preached.”
