What is the work? Should it be led by 'one man at a time'? What did the late Pastor General of the old Worldwide Church of God, Herbert W. Armstrong teach? Could he have been 'Zerubbabel'? Why or why not? Should having materials in multiple languages be part of the final phase of the work? Should Philadelphian Christians just rely on the two witnesses of Revelation 11 and the three angels of Revelation 14 to do it? Is Matthew 24:14 complete? If not, when will it be? Does the CCOG have the growth and signs of Acts 2:17-18 that the end time leader of the final phase of the work should have? Do other Church of God groups have the same focus on the final phase of the work? When was the transitional phase? What did Jesus teach about the work? Should Philadelphians study to be able to answer questions and instruct many? Will the witness of persecutions be part of the final phase of the work? What about reaching/involving world leaders? Should we be preparing for the short work of Romans 9:28 as well as reaching Gentiles per Romans 11:25? Could identifying the 'King of the North' be part of the final phase of the work? Should the most faithful support the Continuing Church of God in its efforts to lead the final phase of the work? Dr. Thiel addresses these issues and more.
