As we have seen, our hope of living forever is solidly based on God's Word. That hope can help us to remain loyal during these difficult last days. But to please Jehovah, we must be motivated by more than just a desire to stay alive. Our primary reason for staying loyal to Jehovah and Jesus is that we love them deeply. (2 Corinthians 5:14, 15) That love motivates us to imitate tham and to share with others the hope we have. (Romans 10:13-15) As we learn to be unselfish and generous we become the thpe of people whom Jehovah wants as his friends forever. - Hebrews 13:16.
Will we be among those who gain everlasting life? Jehovah has opened to door to that possibility. Now it is up to us to stay on the path that leads to life. (Read Matthew 7:13, 14) What will life be like when we live forever? We will discuss the answer to that question in the next article.
