When God's Will Is Done on Earth

* There will be genuine peace, not just the absence of war. "Jehovah . . .is making wars  to cease to the extremity of the earth.  The bow he breaks apart and does cut the spear in pieces; the wagons he burns in the fire." (Psalm 46:8, 9)  "The meek ones themselves will possess the earth, and they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace." -Psalm 37:11. 

* All will have an abundance of food.  "There will come to be plenty of grain on the earth; on the top of the mountains there will be an overflow." -Psalm 72:16.

Perfect healthy will prevail.   "No resident will say: 'I am sick.' " -Isaiah 33:24. 

Everyone will have a comfortable home.  "They will build houses and have occupancy; and they will certainly plant vineyards and eat their fruitage.  They will not build and someone else have occupancy; they will not plant and someone else do the eating." -Isaiah 65:21, 22. 

* All forms of suffering will end.  "The tent of God is with mankind, . . .and he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no  more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore.  The former things have passed away." -Revelation 21:3, 4.

Do those promises appeal to you? If so, Jehovah's Witnesses encourage you to look further into the Bible. Indeed, by doing so you will see even more evidence that man's cruel domination of his fellow man is about to end.  You will also see that the Bible is deserving of your full trust, that it is truly inspired by God. -2 Timothy 3:16.
