These then, I believe are the motifs which provided the framework by which the early message was moulded. The four names of the movement supplied: 1. The Doctrinal content; 2. The World-view; 3. A Restoration theme; and 4. The Experiential application. The names assigned to the message rooted all the motifs in an eschatological perspective. Thus The Word and Witness could correctly declare in 1914: 'This Gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness, and then shall the end coe.' We believe under God this is the great message for these days. Baptized saints are agreed and confidently assured that we are on the threshold of the greatest event in the history of the world, viz: the imminent appearing of Jesus Christ to catch away his waiting Bride. 1 These then, I believe are the motifs which provided the framework by which the early message was moulded.
