REVELATION ITS GRAND CLIMAX AT HAND!/Chapter Twelve -"An Opened Door"

 In 1919 Jesus fulfilled his promise and recognized the small band of genuine anointed Christians as his "faithful and discreet slave." (Matthew 24:45-47)  These entered into a privilege similar to that enjoyed by the faithful steward Eliakim in the time of King Hezekiah.   Jehovah said of Eliakim:  "I will put the key of the house of David upon his shoulder, and he must open without anyone's shutting , and he must shut without anyone's opening." Eliakim shouldered heavy responsibilities for Hezekiah, the royal son of David.  Similarly today, the anointed John class  has had "the key of the house of David" put upon its shoulder in that it has been entrusted with the earthly interests of the Messianic Kingdom.  Jehovah has strengthened his servants for this privilege, boosting their little power into dynamic energy sufficient for a gigantic global witness. - ISAIAH 22:20, 22; 40:29.
