-
Isaiah
54:
z
.J,
THE
SCRIPTURES
CLEARLY
TEACH
THAT
JEHOVAH
is
the
only
true
God,
is
from
everlasting
to
everlasting,
the
Maker
of
heaven
and
earth
and
the
Giver
of
life
to
his
creatures;
that
the
Logos
was
the
beginning
of
his
creation,
and
his
acti"e
agent
in
the
creation
of
all
things;
that
the
Logos
is
now
the
Lord
Jesus
Christ
in
glory,
clothed
with
all
power
in
heaven
and
earth,
and
the
Chief
Executive
Officer
of
Jehovah.
THAT
GOD
created
the
earth
for
man,
created
perfect
man
for
the
earth
and
placed
him
upon
it;
that
man
willfully
dis
obeyed
God's
law
and
was
sentenced
to
death;
that
by
reason
of
Adam's
wrong
act
all
men
are
born
sinners
and
without
the
right
to
life.
THAT
JESUS
was
made
human,
and
the
man
Jesus
suffered
death
in
order
to
produce
the
ransom
or
redemptive
price
for
obedient
ones
of
mankind;
that
God
raised
up
Jesus
divine
and
exalted
him
to
heaven
above
every
creature
and
above
every
name
and
clothed
him
with
all
power
and
authority.
THAT
JEHOVAH'S
ORGANIZATION
is
a
Theocracy
called
Zion,
and
that
Christ
Jesus
is
the
Chief
Officer
thereof
and
is
the
right
ful
King
of
the
world;
that
the
anointed
and
faithful
followers
of
ChrIst
Jesus
are
children
of
Zion,
m~mbers
of
Jehovah's
organiza
tion,
and
are
his
witnesses
whose
duty
and
privilege
it
is
to
testify
to
the
supremacy
of
Jehovah,
declare
his
purposes
towarll
mankind
as
expressed
in
the
Bible,
and
to
bear
the
fruits
of
the
kingdom
before
all
who
will
hear.
THAT
THE
WORLD
has
ended,
and
the
Lord
Jesus
Christ
has
been
placed
by
Jehovah
upon
his
throne
of
authority,
has
ousted
Satan
from
heaven
and
is
proceeding
to
the
establishment
of
God's
kingdom
on
earth.
THAT
THE
RELIEF
and
blessings
of
the
peoples
of
earth
can
come
only
by
and
through
Jehovah's
kingdom
under
Christ,
which
has
now
begun;
that
the
Lord's
next
great
act
Is
the
destruction
of
Satan's
organization
and
the
establishment
of
righteousness
In
the
earth,
and
that
under
the
kingdom
the
peopie
of
good
will
that
survive
Armageddon
shall
carry
out
the
divine
mandate
to
"fill
the
earth"
with
a
righteous
race.
