TO

US

THE

SCRIP1URES

CLEARLY

TEACH

THAT

JEHOVAH

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

0.

man;

that

he

is

now

the

Lord

Jesus

Christ

in

glory,

clothed

with

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

God's

law

and

was

sentenced

to

death;

that

by

reason

of

Adam's

wrongful

act

all

men

are

born

smners

and

without

the

right

to

life.

THAT

JESUS

lms

made

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

heaven,

and

presented

the

value

of

his

human

sacrifice

as

the

redemptive

price

for

man.

THAT

FOR

MANY

CENTURIES

God,

through

Christ,

lias

been

selecting

from

amongst

men

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

Christ

Jesus,

grow

in

his

likeness,

give

testimony

to

the

name

and

purpose

of

Jehovah

God,

and

ultimately

be

glorified

with

Christ

Jesus

in

his

heavenly

kingdom;

that

Christ,

Head

and

body,

consti

tutes

the

"seed

of

Abraham"

through

which

all

families

of

the

earth

shall

be

blessed.

THAT

THE

WORLD

HAS

ENDED;

that

the

Lord

Jesus

has

returned

anu

is

now

present;

that

Jehovah

has

placeu

Christ

Jesus

upon

his

throne

and

now

commands

all

nations

and

peoples

to

hear

and

obey

him.

THAT

THE

GREAT

ISSUE

before

all

creation

now

is

the

vindication

of

Jehovah's

word

and

name,

and

that

it

is

the

privilege

and

duty

of

every

true

Christian

to

give

the

testimony

of

Jesus

Christ,

and

to

make

known

that

the

kingdom

of

heaven

is

come.

This

gospel

of

the

kingdom

must

be

preached.
