RELIGION 
Joel 
1: 
up, 
and 
the 
politicians, 
with 
the 
clergy, 
shout: 
"Give 
us 
more 
religion." 
Jehovah 
describes 
the 
situation 
in 
these 
words: 
"For 
the 
land 
is 
full 
of 
adulterers; 
for 
because 
of 
swearing 
[cursing] 
the 
land 
mourneth; 
the 
pleasant 
places 
of 
the 
wilderness 
are 
dried 
up, 
and 
their 
course 
[vio­ 
lence] 
is 
evil, 
and 
their 
force 
is 
not 
right. 
For 
both 
prophet 
and 
priest 
arc 
profane; 
yea, 
in 
my 
house 
have 
found 
their 
wickedness, 
saith 
the 
Lord. 
Wherefore 
their 
way 
shall 
be 
unto 
them 
as 
slippery 
ways 
in 
the 
darkness; 
they 
shall 
be 
driven 
on, 
and 
fall 
therein; 
for 
will 
bring 
evil 
upon 
them, 
even 
the 
year 
of 
their 
visitation, 
saith 
the 
Lord."-Jeremiah 
23: 
10-12, 
marqi»,

"Christendom" 
there 
is 
no 
substantial, 
basic 
food 
available: 
"For 
the 
corn 
is 
wasted: 
the 
new 
wine 
is 
dried 
up, 
the 
[olive] 
oil 
Ian­ 
guisheth." 
Such 
is 
the 
present-day 
condition 
of 
"Christendom". 
She 
is 
without 
spiritnal 
nour­ 
ishment, 
and 
hence 
the 
religionists 
look 
to 
the 
politicians 
and 
the 
money-changers 
to 
hold 
"Christendom's" 
organization 
together. 
There 
is 
no 
more 
"joy 
of 
the 
Lord" 
amongst 
the 
reli­ 
gionists, 
because 
now 
they 
are 
against 
Jehovah 
God 
and 
against 
his 
King 
and 
kingdom 
and 
have 
gone 
entirely 
away 
to 
Satan 
and 
his 
world 
and 
have 
become 
part 
of 
it. 
The 
Lord 
is 
revealing 
these 
truths 
today 
for 
the 
special 
aid 
and 
benefit 
of 
the 
people 
of 
good 
will, 
the 
Jonadabs, 
and, 
this 
information 
coming 
to 
them, 
they 
discern 
the 
miserable 
situation 
of 
religion 
and 
religion­ 
ists, 
and 
they 
are 
fleeing 
to 
God's 
kingdom 
thnt 
they 
might 
there 
find 
protection 
and 
refuge 
be­ 
fore 
and 
during 
Armageddon. 
Many 
sincere 
people

142 RELIGION Joel 1:10 up, and the politicians, with the clergy, shout: “Give us more religion.” Jehovah describes the situation in these words: “For the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing [cursing | the land mourneth; the pleasant places of the wilderness are dried up, and their course [violence] is evil, and their force is not right. For both prophet and priest are profane; yea, in my house have I found their wickedness, saith the Lord. Wherefore their way shall be unto them as slippery ways in the darkness; they shall be driven on, and fall therein; for I will bring evil upon them, even the year of their visitation, saith the Lord.”—Jeremiah 23: 10-12, margin. In “Christendom” there is no substantial, basie food available: “For the corn is wasted: the new wine is dried up, the [olive] oil languisheth.” Such is the present-day condition of “Christendom”. She is without spiritual nourishment, and hence the religionists look to the politicians and the money-changers to hold “Christendom’s” organization together. There is no more “joy of the Lord” amongst the religionists, because now they are against Jehovah God and against his King and kingdom and have gone entirely away to Satan and his world and have become a part of it. The Lord is revealing these truths today for the special aid and benefit of the people of good will, the Jonadabs, and, this information coming to them, they discern the miserable situation of religion and religionists, and they are fieeing to God’s kingdom that they might there find protection and refuge before and during Armageddon. Many sincere people have been under the influence and control
