A first step to becoming a subject of God's Kingdom is education. Indeed, Jesus said in prayer to God: "This means everlasting life, their coming to know you, the only true God, and the one whom you sent, Jesus Christ." - JOHN 17:3.
When people come to know Jehovah God as Person, they benefit in many ways. Consider just two: First, they develop strong faith in him. That faith, which based on evidence convinces them that God's Kingdom Is a reality and that rule is near. (Hebrews 11:1) Second, they grow in love for God And for neighbor moves them to apply Jesus' words that are often called the Golden Rule. It states: "Do unto others as you would want them to do unto you. " - LUKE 6:31.
Like a loving father, 0ur Creator wants the very best for us. He wants us to experience what the Bible calls "the real life." (1 Timothy 6:19) Life today is not "the real life." For milli0ns, it is little more than existence-and is perilous at that. To give you a preview of that "real life," consider some of the wonderful things that God's Kingdom will do for its subjects.
