THE

BIBLE

CLEARLY

TEACHES

THAT

JEHOVAH

is

the

only

true

God,

from

everlasting

to

everlasting,

and

is

the

Maker

of

heaven

and

earth

and

Giver

of

Ufe

to

his

creatures;

that

the

Word

or

Logos

was

the

beginning

of

his

creation

and

his

active

agent

in

creating

all

other

things:

and

that

the

creature

Lucifer

rebelled

against

Jehovah

and

raised

the

Issue

of

His

universal

sovereignty:

THA

T

GOD

created

the

earth

for

man,

made

perfect

man

for

the

earth

and

placed

him

upon

It:

that

man

yielded

to

unfaithful

Lucifer,

or

Satan,

and

w111fully

disobeyed

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

THE

LOGOS

was

made

human

as

the

man

Jesus

and

suf

fered

death

In

order

to

produce

the

ransom

or

redemptive

price

tor

obedient

men;

that

God

raised

up

Christ

Jesus

divine

and

exalted

him

to

heaven

above

every

other

creature

and

clothed

him

with

all

power

and

authority

as

head

of

God's

new

capital

organization;

THAT

GOD'S

CAPITAL

ORGANIZATION

Is

a

Theocracy

called

Zion,

and

that

Christ

Jesus

Is

the

Chlet

Officer

thereof

and

Is

the

rightfUl

King

of

the

new

world;

that

the

faithful

anointed

tollowers

of

Christ

Jesus

are

Zion's

children,

members

of

Jehovah's

organization,

and

are

His

witnesses

whose

duty

and

privilege

It

is

to

testify

to

Jehovah's

supremacy

and

declare

his

purposes

toward

mankind

as

expressed

In

the

Bible;

THAT

ended

A.D.

1914,

and

Christ

Jesus

has

been

placed

by

Jehovah

upon

the

throne,

has

ousted

Satan

from

heaven,

and

now

proceeds

to

vindicate

His

name

and

establish

the

"new

earth";

THAT

THE

RELIEF

and

blessings

of

the

peoples

can

come

only

by

Jehovah's

kingdom

under

Christ,

which

has

begun;

that

His

next

great

act

Is

to

destroy

Satan's

organization

and

establish

righteousness

completely

in

the

earth;

and

that

under

the

Kingdom

the

people

of

good·will

surviving

Armageddon

wlll

carry

out

the

divine

mandate

to

"fill

the

earth"
