TO

US

THE

SCRIPTURES

CLEARLY

TEACH

THAT

JEHOYAH

is

the

only

true

God,

the

Maker

of

heaven

and

earth,

and

is

from

everlasting

to

everlasting;

that

the

Logos

was

the

beginning

of

his

creation;

that

the

Logos

became

a

mun;

that

he

is

now

the

Lord

Jesus

Christ

in

glory,

clothed

\vitll

all

power

in

heaven

and

in

earth.

THAT

GOD

created

the

earth

for

man,

and

created

perfect

man

for'

the

earth

and

placed

him

upon

it;

that

man

wilfully

disobeyed

Goel's

law

and

wa.s

sentenced

to

death;

that

by

reason

of

Adam's

wrongful

act

all

men

are

born

sinners

and

without

the

right

to

life.

THAT

JESUS

was

maue

a

human

being

in

order

that

he

might

become

the

Redeemer

of

man;

that

he

gave

his

life

a.

sacrifice

for

man

and

thereby

produced

the

ransom

price;

that

Jesus

the

divine

was

raised

from

the

dead,

ascended

into

he:wen,

and

presented

the

value

of

his

human

sacritice

as

the

:redemptive

price

for

man.

THAT

FOR

MANY

CENTURIES

God,

through

Christ,

has

been

selecting

frolll

amongst

llIen

the

members

of

his

church,

which

constitutes

the

body

of

Christ;

that

the

mission

of

the

church

is

to

follow

in

the

footsteps

of

her

Lord

ChIist

Jesus,

grow

in

his

likeness,

give

testimony

to

the

nallle

and

purpose

of

Jehovah

God,

and

ultimately

Le

glorified

with

Christ

Jesus

in

his

heavenly

kingdom;

that

Cl'rist,

Head

an,1

body,

consti

tutes

the

"seed

of

Abraham"

through

which

all

famili()s

of

the

earth

shall

be

blessed.

THAT

THE

WORLD

HAS

ENDED;

that

the

Loru

Jesus

liaS

returned

and

is

now

present;

that

Jehovah

has

placed

Christ

Jesus

upon

his

throne

and

now

commands

all

nations

and

peoples

to

hear

and

obey

him.

THAT

THE

HOPE

OF

THE

PEOPLES

of

earth

is

resto

ration

to

human

perfection

durinl~

the

reign

of

Christ;

that

the

reign

of

Christ

will

afford

opportunity

to

every

man

to

have

a

fair

trial

for

life,

nnd

those

who

obey

will

live

on

earth

for

ever

in

a

state

of

happiness.
