true
God,
from
everlasting
to
everlasting,
and
Is
the
Maker
of
heaven
and
earth
and
Giver
of
life
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;
THAT
GOD
rreated
the
earth
for
man,
made
perfect
man
for
the
earth
and
placed
him
upon
it;
that
man
yielded
to
unfaithful
Lucifer.
or
Satan,
and
wlIIfully
d.ll!Obe~·ed
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
for
obedient
men:
that
God
raised
up
Christ
Jesus
divine
and
exalted
him
to
heaven
above
ever)'
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
Chief
Officer
thereof
and
Is
the
rightful
King
of
the
new
world;
that
the
faithful
anoInted
followers
of
Christ
Jesus
are
Zion's
chlluren,
members

and
privilege
It
Is
to

Jehovah's
supremacy
and
declare
his
purposes
toward
mankind
as
expressed
In
the
Bible;
THAT

anrl
Christ
Jesus

the
throne,
has
ousted
Satan
from
heaven,
and
now
proceeds
to
vIndicate
HIs
name
and
establish

"new
earth";
THAT
THE
RELIEF
and
blessings
of
the
peoples
can
come
only
by
Jehovah's
kIngdom
under
Christ,
which
has

that
His

act
Is
to
destroy
Satan's
organIzation

"GOD'S
TRUTHFULNESS"
TESTIMONY
PERIOD
The
Testimony
Period
during
February,
stressing
God's
truth
fulness,
Will
catch
up
the
four-month-long
subscription
campaign
for
The
Watchtower
and
A
wake!
and
will
carry
it
forward
through
this
midwinter
month.
Hence,
the
same
as
dunng
the
campaign's
initial
month,
January,
all
active

offenng
jointly

of
two

(WATCHTOWER

all
at
the
regular

for
the
two,
subscriptions,
namely,
two
dollars.

determined
efforts
on
the
part
of
all

the

of
heavy
winter

we

show
this.
