But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. 13. Watch therefore; for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of Man cometh. MATT. xxv. 1-13.
We may, then, reconstruct the Gospel used by Marcion with very considerable confidence that we have its real contents before us. In that Gospel, then, the following portions of our present St. Luke were omitted: Chaps. i. and ii, including the prologue, the Nativity, and the birth of John the Baptist. John, and the genealogy. iv. 1-13, 17-20, 24: the Temptation, the reading from Isaiah.
But that these passages can have no reference to the present dispensation, but to the one which will commence with the return of the Lord, that in the present dispensation things will not become spiritually better, but rather worse, and that in the present dispensation it is not the whole world that will be converted, but only a people gathered out from among the Gentiles for the Lord, is clear from many passages of the divine testimony, of which I only refer to the following: Matt. xiii. 24-30, and verse 36-43, 2 Tim. iii. 1-13, Acts. xv. 14.

Abram dwelled in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelled in the cities of the plain, and pitched his tent toward Sodom. But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the Lord exceedingly. GENESIS xiii. 1-13. The main lesson of this section is the wisdom of seeking spiritual rather than temporal good. That is illustrated on both sides.
WE consider every believer bound, in one way or other, to help the cause of Christ, and we have scriptural warrant for expecting the Lord's blessing upon our work of faith and labour of love: and although, according to Matt. xiii. 24-43, 2 Tim. iii. 1-13, and many other passages, the world will not be converted before the coming of our Lord Jesus, still, while He tarries, all scriptural means ought to be employed for the ingathering of the elect of God.
