Development in The Spreading of The Gospel Message
In times past, in addition to the ceremonial feast system, the truth of God was spread by word of mouth and laborious hand-written letters and scrolls. Later, God Himself would come to demonstrate the truth through His example. When Johannes Gutenberg invented the processes for making the printing press more usable for mass production, his major work would be The Bible, making the scriptures more broadly available to the world.
Modern technology increased even more the rapidity through which knowledge, including the gospel message, could be transmitted: radio, television, and periodicals.
Television was a revolution in mass video communication in the last century. But it was reserved for those with large financial resources. It was a very useful tool in its day for preaching the gospel message of Jesus Christ.
The internet would bring yet another powerful way of spreading the gospel message. Websites would be the foundation for a slew of other technologies that would revolutionize the world.
In this century, the internet has made available even more pervasive and inexpensive tools for spreading the gospel. And it can be done quickly, with little to no expense. Social media garners the attention of billions every day. Facebook is by far the most pervasive of the social media platforms.
