Conclusion of What Is God's Purpose for the Earth? -When will suffering end?

4. When will suffering end?

       When will God bring an end to evil on earth?  Jesus gave a "sign" to indicate when the end would be near. Present world conditions threaten man's survival and show that we  now live in  "the conclusion of the system of things." Read Matthew 24:3, 7-14, 21, 22. 

During Jesus' 1,000-year rule from heaven over the earth, he will bring all suffering to an end.  (Isaiah 9:6, 7; 11:9 ) Besides serving as King, Jesus will act as High Priest and will cancel the sins of those who love God. thus, by means of Jesus, God will eliminate sickness, aging, and death. Read Isaiah 25:8; 33:24.

5.   Who will live in the future Paradise?

        People who obey God will live in Paradise.  (1 John 2:17) Jesus sent his followers to search for meek people and to teach them how to become acceptable to God. Today, Jehovah is preparing millions of people for life in the future Paradise on earth.  (Zephaniah 2:3) At Kingdom Halls of Jehovah's Witnesses, people learn to be better husbands and fathers and to be better wives and mothers.  Children and parents worship together and learn how to benefit from the good news. Read Micah 4:1-4.  

Note: If anyone tells you otherwise, they are Satan's messengers and are wrong to tell you anything other than what is told here. Because this is the truth.
