Watchtower Study, Bible prophecies: much to learn, October 16-22, 2023, Comments and Responses.
“Only the discerning will understand” (DAN. 12:10).
1. What will help us enjoy studying Bible prophecies?
Well, understand better why Jehovah wanted them to be in the Bible and this article is going to help us a lot.
Better understanding why Jehovah wanted prophecies to be written in his word, the Bible, will help us stop thinking that they are complicated or boring and that will lead us to enjoy our research.
2. What will we see in this article?
In this article we will see why we should know the prophecies of the Bible well and what is needed to study them. Then we will analyze two prophecies from the book of Daniel and see how understanding their meaning helps us now.
In this article, we will examine the importance of acquiring a deep knowledge of biblical prophecies and what is required to study them properly. Then, we will proceed to analyze two prophecies extracted from the book of Daniel, highlighting how understanding their meaning can be relevant and useful today.
WHY SHOULD WE STUDY BIBLICAL PROPHECIES?
3. What do we have to do to understand biblical prophecies?
To understand Biblical prophecies we must humbly ask Jehovah for help. Jehovah knows where we are in history and what awaits us in the future, therefore, it is necessary to ask for his help to understand the prophecies of the Bible.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
Well, we have to humbly ask Jehovah to help us because he knows perfectly well where we are in history and also what lies ahead.
And also as Second Peter 1:20 says, true insight comes from Jehovah, so there is no one better than him to understand what he has revealed in the Bible.
As they have already said before, it is very important to pray to Jehovah when we are going to read a prophecy so that he gives us understanding and thus understand exactly what he wants to tell us there and not be guided by our own understanding because we run the risk of misunderstanding what we are reading.
And we ask Jehovah for help to help us understand this because as Daniel 2:28 says, he is the revealer of secrets, he has left them recorded for us and he wants us to know what he tells us in it.
And we are given an illustration so that we understand it, if perhaps we go to a city that we have never been to, then we would greatly appreciate it if there was a companion like in the Illustration who helps us know where we should walk because of which street we should enter, then As has been said, Jehovah is this companion who helps us understand biblical prophecies and we are grateful.
We can illustrate this in the following way: We are visiting a city we have never been to but we are accompanied by a friend who knows that place like the back of his hand. Our friend knows exactly where we are in the city and where each street leads. So we thought it would be excellent if our friend wanted to accompany us, since thanks to him we will know where we are and what we can find. In the same way, Jehovah helps us understand prophecies because as 2 Peter 1:19, 20 says, No prophecy in scripture comes from personal interpretation, and Daniel 2:28 says that Jehovah is the revealer of secrets. So Jehovah is our best helper in understanding Biblical prophecies.
4. Why did Jehovah want prophecies to be written in his Word? (Jeremiah 29:11; see also photo).
Because he wanted us to know in advance all the important events that have already occurred and that will continue to occur, so all these prophecies are a gift that Jehovah wants to give us for all the love he has for us.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
Jehovah wanted prophecies to be written in his word so that we can know in advance the important events that are going to occur. Therefore, we can see prophecies as a gift that our heavenly father gives us with love because he wants us to do well in life.
It is also a sign of Jehovah's goodness to let us know what is going to happen to us in the future when he says that he has a future and hope for us, something that the world does not have, that takes away a very great burden from us and we see that Jehovah has fact that there are prophecies because among other things for that.
Jeremiah 29:11 shows that Jehovah wanted prophecies written in the Bible because he wants us to have peace instead of calamity, as well as a future full of hope. Prophecies are a way in which Jehovah reveals his purpose and love for us, allowing us to anticipate important events that will happen. Hence the importance of studying them deeply as the brothers of the Enlightenment do, since they prepare us for the future.
And knowing today what is going to happen in the future will also help us to be faithful.
ILLUSTRATION
If you see them holding hands, they are watching a video, it seems to be that of Daniel, the statue in the image, and that gives them confidence. Later, we will see that they will face tests, but this phase is key to being able to endure them.
And he also wanted his word to write all the prophecies for us so that we can know in advance the important events that are going to happen as Jehovah said.
A couple watching the video “Daniel, a man of faith.” Studying Bible prophecies helps us prepare for the future. (See paragraph 4).
5. What can young people learn from Max's example?
Young people can learn that at school, being surrounded by people who have very little respect for the Bible can lead to doubts and that can lead young people to question their faith. But you can also learn that if that happens, it is important to stay calm and look to the Bible for answers. They can also learn that studying and discussing Bible prophecies with other young people in the congregation can strengthen their conviction that the Bible is inspired by God.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
Well, after reading the paragraph I drew several conclusions, one was that you can see that it is common to be surrounded by people who do not respect the Bible, that they have their parents so that they can help them solve questions and that parents with the Bible are going to help them. help resolve all those doubts through being able to understand the prophecies with the Bible and this will make them have a strong faith.
I also really liked what he said that when his parents saw that he had doubts other than that he didn't know if he was right, he said that although they were worried, they did not lose their calm and that is also very important because sometimes parents, when our children show signs that maybe they are going through a difficult time because we worry too much and maybe instead of helping them we annoy them more and push them further away.
We learn that a young person can have doubts because he may have his doubts but there is a way to resolve those doubts just as if we were older, there are ways and he can seek help from his parents or also later with other siblings.
You can also learn from this paragraph that parents have to be well prepared to be able to answer the doubts and problems that their children have.
The conclusion after having studied the prophecies in depth is very interesting because not only did he understand the prophecies, he says that he was convinced that the Bible is inspired by God, I was convinced this is the idea, the truth is that our children do not only have to know what we We tell you, you have to be convinced that this is the truth.
6. What should we do if we have doubts, and why?
If we have doubts about whether the Bible tells the truth, we should not feel guilty, but we should not sit idly by either. We must take action because doubts are like rust that can corrode our faith. Hence, to remove the rust from our doubts, we are suggested to ask ourselves if we believe in what the Bible says about the future. If we are not sure, it is necessary to study the prophecies that have already been fulfilled, because this will help us strengthen our faith and clarify our doubts.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
Well, here in the paragraph it says that doubts are like rust, if something has rust and we don't do anything, it will end up breaking down, as will we. In order to remove those doubts, what can help us is to study the prophecies that have already been fulfilled.
We should also not feel guilty but we should not stay with our arms crossed and first we must ask for help from Jehovah and also from the brothers and you can also study the prophecies that have already been fulfilled, so we will be sure of the words written in the Bible.
But if we take into account that Jesus said that knowing you brings us eternal life, knowing the prophecies helps us to know Jehovah better, we see how it never fails to see how he is so fond of us that he makes it known to us and What this does is strengthen our faith and that is the key to getting closer to Jehovah and to acting.
WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO STUDY BIBLICAL PROPHECIES?
7. What helped Daniel study the prophecies? (Daniel 12:10; see also photo).
It helped Daniel to have the right motive when studying the prophecies, since his desire was to know the truth. He was also benefited by his humility, as he recognized that it is Jehovah who gives understanding to those who know him and obey his just and pure standards. But not only did it help Daniel demonstrate humility and turn to Jehovah for help, it also helped him carefully study the scriptures and thoroughly investigate the sacred writings of his time.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
Well, studying with the right reason helped him because what he wanted was to know the truth. He was also humble because he knew that the merit belonged to Jehovah. He was the one who gave him the necessary help for it and he also studied carefully, that is, he didn't. done quickly and above but with in-depth research.
And although Daniel had already been exiled in Babylon for more or less the time, but when the king told him that you have been here in Babylon for so long, he fell and although he was aware of it, he wanted to delve deeper, so he began to delve deeper into the time he had been in Babylon, so that Well, that was when he deepened his faith more and said, but if I have already spent more than 70 or so years, at what level are the prophecies that remain to be fulfilled, then the prophecy is going to make our faith more firm and we will be very aware of the Jehovah's day.
Well, as Jeremiah 25 says, 11 and 12 and Daniel 9_2, he says from the books he came to the conclusion that they would be in captivity for 70 years, without a doubt, this gave him confidence knowing how long he was there.
ILLUSTRATION
Well, what you are doing is investigating The prophecies something that catches your attention in the Bible when we do the reading because there are many things that we say well and what will this mean because a deep study of those scriptures is what is going to give us faith us to be able to move forward and be able to endure the things that, as has been mentioned, are going to come to us, but it is essential that we base our faith on the scriptures and especially on the prophecies that have already been fulfilled.
In the Illustration we can see a sister studying and analyzing biblical prophecies with the tools that Jehovah provides us through his organization. Unlike Daniel who only had the sacred writings that existed in his time, we, the JW library, the online library among other tools.
A sister studies the prophecy about the king of the north and the king of the south using the May 2020 issue of “The Watchtower.” To trust in Jehovah as much as Daniel did, we must study Bible prophecies humbly, carefully, and with the right motive. (See paragraph 7).
8. Why do some people study Bible prophecies, but what should we do?
Some people study Bible prophecies with the intention of finding evidence that the Bible does not come from God, looking for excuses to decide for themselves what is right and what is wrong and to be able to do what they want with their lives. But we must study the prophecies of the Bible with the right motive, that is, with the genuine desire to really know the truth. Hence, it is good for each person to analyze their motives. If we have the right motivation, then we can be sure that Jehovah will help us understand Bible prophecies.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
If some people perhaps start investigating thinking that they are going to find reasons to say that the Bible does not come from God or that it is not true, then they are not having the right reason, however, if we study with the right reason, we will get what we want. Jesus Christ said in John 14:16 and 17 where he mentions that holy spirit will be given to those who really want to know the truth about the word of God and yet those who are in the world and do not want to obtain that knowledge do not have a motivation. adequate because even if they have intellectual knowledge, they do not understand what the truth is.
That is why we must analyze the reasons, we must be honest with ourselves because, as has been mentioned, what people do who do not have this correct reason are looking for excuses, even if they cannot find them, they will not find faults, but they do with their lives what they want. So this is what we should not get infected and what we have, as it says here, studying the prophecies, we must have the right reason to be honest with ourselves.
Furthermore, if we have the right motivation then we can be sure that Jehovah will help us understand biblical prophecies.
What John 4:23 says is beautiful because Jehovah is shown to us as a father who is looking for people who worship him in spirit with truth and he calls them authentic worshipers, so if we put a sincere effort in learning from Jehovah's prophecies Jehovah will be more than willing to give it to us.
John 14:16 and 17 says that we have a helper that Jehovah sends us who is the holy spirit and something important that he says is that the world cannot receive that spirit because as we have seen there are people who look for excuses not to give an account to God and do what they want with their lives, however, those of us who really want to do Jehovah's will if we ask for his spirit he will help us.
9. What quality do we need to understand Bible prophecies, and why?
The quality we need to understand biblical prophecies is humility. It is important to be humble, because in James 4:6 Jehovah promises to help the humble. Hence, we must humbly pray to Jehovah and accept the help that he gives us through the faithful slave as a means of giving us spiritual food at the right time.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
In James 4:6 it is saying that God is kind to the arrogant but shows undeserved kindness to the humble that is why we have to be humble because if we want to ask Him if we want to better understand the biblical professions we have to have that humility and ask Jehovah for help through prayer and also accept the help of the faithful slave who is the means that Jehovah has provided to give us spiritual food in due time.
And furthermore, since Jehovah is a God of order, it is expected that he used only one means to spread the truth of the field, says Ephesians 4:4 and 6, there is one God, one faith, so Jehovah uses this, he uses his organization to spread his truths.
10. What does Esther's example teach you?
Esther's example teaches me the importance of carefully studying the scriptures, since we can start with a prophecy that catches our attention and then investigate further. Esther became interested in the prophecies that announced the arrival of the messiah and she decided to check for herself if they were true. To do this, she studied the Dead Sea scrolls and discovered that some of these scrolls were written before the time of Jesus, which confirmed that the prophecies came from God. And although she had to read several times to understand some things, she felt that it was worth her effort because she verified for herself that the Bible tells the truth.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
I like a phrase that says at the end that says some things, I had to read them a few times to understand them and even so this sister mentions that it was worth the effort because she felt much better afterwards and it was clearer to her than the Bible It tells the truth, so sometimes maybe even though we have been there for many years, something is more difficult for us to understand because we can go deeper, we can do like this sister so that it is even clearer to us that the Bible is completely right.
It also teaches me that age does not matter when it comes to understanding prophecies, it may be more difficult for the little ones but they can also deepen their faith and thus be clear that Jehovah is real and can defend himself as well.
One detail that I really liked was what I did at the beginning of the paragraph that says to think of a prophecy that you like and start there. It is true that if it is a little difficult for us to investigate the prophecies, then we start with the 70 weeks and do the same calculations. It is complicated for us, but as the sister says, she began to investigate the life of Jesus, perhaps it is something a little bit that is better understood as having been fulfilled before than as having been fulfilled after, and perhaps we will begin to enjoy it and it will be easier to continue with the next ones. .
There are also those who have counted The prophecies that are fulfilled in Jesus say that there are more than 330 and they are all in the Hebrew scriptures in fact it is mentioned that all the prophets speak of him so for the sister Well a job but it is clear that She had to become super convinced that many prophecies had been fulfilled in Jesus.
And the sister concludes by saying that it was very clear to her that the Bible tells the truth and that the most important thing is that she verified it for herself, that says a lot about the sister. Afterwards, she was practically calm that everything that comes from the Bible is the truth. and it opened the door so that any instructions given by the governing body will not have any doubts about being carried out and that is very important for all of us.
11. How does it benefit us to ensure that the Bible tells the truth?
Making sure the Bible tells the truth benefits us in two ways. First, it strengthens our trust in Jehovah, so much so that the instructions he gives us become indestructible. Second, it helps us maintain hope and a positive attitude, no matter the circumstances. Furthermore, analyzing the Biblical prophecies that are being fulfilled in our days helps us make good decisions.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
For example, when we investigate further, we check how and when certain prophecies have been fulfilled, our trust in Jehovah and the instructions only grows, but not only that, but even thanks to the fact that our trust is stronger, it will be easier for us to deal with value the future trials we face.
The paragraph shows a word that can be said very quickly but is very important. It says that our trust can become indestructible and that is something that is very valuable. We know that in the future all of Jehovah's people will be his servants. tested to have the confidence that our faith will be so strong that no one will be able to break it and that it will also give us a positive attitude, as has already been mentioned, these are wonderful tools to continue delving deeper into the prophecies.
THE FEET OF THE STATUE AND YOU
12. What do the feet of “iron mixed with wet clay” represent? (Daniel 2:41-43).
By comparing the prophecy of Daniel 2:41,4 with other prophecies of Daniel, and the book of Revelation, we come to the conclusion that the feet of iron mixed with wet clay in Nebuchadnezzar's dream represent the alliance for the United Kingdom and The United States, which is the dominant world power today. This Alliance is part strong and part fragile, as the common people, symbolized by wet mud, limit their ability to act with the strength of iron.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
This prophecy with another from Daniel and Revelation leads to the conclusion that the feet represent the alliance formed by the United States and the United Kingdom, which are the world power that currently governs the world.
And as we are going to continue seeing in the following paragraphs we see that they are tough as iron because they are powers that have had a great impact on society in the world wars and they are also largely muddy because the citizens they have through unions and through demanding their rights has caused them to not be able to demonstrate that power 100%.
In paragraphs 7 through 9 of the June 15, 2012, Watchtower article, Jehovah reveals things that must shortly take place. There it is made clear that the feet of iron mixed with wet clay of the prophecy of Daniel 241 43 represent the Anglo-American world power, which is a mixture of Great Britain and the United States. This power is weaker than the Roman Empire from which they emerged, because the clay represents the common people who have limited their ability to act with iron strength through demanding rights, social movements and elections without clear majorities.
13. What important truths does this prophecy help us understand?
This prophecy helps us understand two important truths. First, it shows us that the world power formed by the United Kingdom and the United States has proven to be strong because it contributed decisively to the victory of the winning side of the first and second world wars, but it has been weakened and will continue to be weakened due to the internal conflicts among its citizens. Second, it reveals to us that this will be the last world power before the kingdom of God puts an end to all human governments. Although other nations may occasionally challenge it, they will not replace it, as the stone, or kingdom of God, will shatter the feet of the statue.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
Something that we have been able to see is that this world power formed by the United Kingdom and the United States has shown that that part of iron is strong and an example is how it contributes decisively to the victory of the winning side in the first and second wars. World.
And then on the other hand, we know that this world power will be the last because as Daniel 2:34 and 35 say, we know that the giant stone will shatter at the feet and the statue will fall.
It also teaches us that although we see other nations that challenge this power, we see that, as the prophecy says, that statue is going to fall and will no longer rise and there will be no other government that precedes it and that makes us see that we are In the last moments of the history of this world as we know it and as we will see later this is important for us.
14. Why does understanding the prophecy about feet of iron and clay help us make good decisions?
Understanding the prophecy of the feet of iron and clay helps us make good decisions, because it makes us aware that the world's days are numbered and that seeking economic security in this world is useless. Furthermore, understanding this prophecy helps us give proper importance to preaching, making disciples, and putting God's kingdom first in our lives.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
Because as we know that these feet of iron and molded clay have their days numbered, we will not seek economic security in this world but we will do what Luke 12:21 says, we will seek or store up treasures in heaven by giving the work of preaching the first place in our life.
Understanding this prophecy well will help us what it says in first John 2:15 to 17, what is the object of my love, I love this world, things that are in this world, or I really love Jehovah, if this world is really passing away, it is leaving, what do I do? my life who is taking the best of me.
And it is a good reflection at the end of the article because we will be talking about things like confidence, preparing, but now we take one more step, that is, my decisions show what things I do if all this is really so good and I have it so clear, what a beautiful reflection. What I do with my life, as has been said, what decisions we make.
Therefore, by understanding this prophecy, we can evaluate our decisions and ensure that they demonstrate our confidence that God's Kingdom will soon put an end to all human rule.
THE TWO RIVAL KINGS AND YOU
15. Who are “the king of the north” and “the king of the south” today? (Daniel 11:40).
Well, we know that the king of the North is Russia and its allies and the king of the south is the power made up of the United Kingdom and the United States.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
Comparing the prophecy of Daniel 11:40 with other biblical prophecies, we know that today, the king of the North is Russia and its allies, while the king of the south is the world power made up of the United Kingdom and the United States.
And we can say this because, as mentioned in the note, these kings who are mentioned in the book of Daniel have to fulfill three options. The first is to directly influence the people of God, and both one and the other have done so. The second is to show with their actions that they are enemies of Jehovah of his servants and finally fight against them who are doing it now therefore we see that both fulfill those prophecies.
According to The Watchtower of May 2020, in paragraphs three and four of the article, Who is the "king of the north" today?, for a government to assume the role of king of the north or king of the south it must do three things : First, directly influence God's people. Second, show by his actions that he is an enemy of Jehovah and his servants. And third, fight against the rival king. Hence, according to the prophecies, we conclude that Russia is the king of the North because she and her allies have had a direct impact on the people of God by prohibiting preaching and persecuting hundreds of thousands of brothers who live in the places under the control of it. Furthermore, her actions show that she has a feeling of hatred towards Jehovah and his people.
We can also reach that conclusion, because it is mentioned that Russia and its allies have fought against the world power formed by Great Britain and the United States, considered the king of the South.
16. What difficulties do the servants of God face in the territories dominated by “the king of the north”?
Servants of God who live in the territories dominated by the king of the North face persecution, beatings and imprisonment because of their beliefs. However, despite these difficulties, they are not intimidated and their faith grows stronger. The persecution they suffer was predicted in the book of Daniel, which helps them keep their hope alive and remain loyal to Jehovah.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
Well, in these two territories our brothers are being strongly persecuted, in some cases they are even beaten and imprisoned due to their beliefs, but they do not allow themselves to be intimidated; their faith is still stronger.
And all of this is not something that simply appears in the paragraph and we can believe, but the information that appears in the note tells us about the Watchtower of May 2020, in this specific case, paragraphs 7 to 9 and gives us data. about how that prophecy has been fulfilled little by little and how the servants of that time are being affected and it is true that we see the fulfillment today because we see it in the news, the organization sends us a lot of information but also We see it compared to the prophecy and the steps that are being taken and that when you study it carefully makes your faith grow and you are really convinced that what Jehovah says is going to happen.
Well, in the prophecy of Daniel 11:41 it says that the people of Israel would invade the beautiful land, in that place it was the people of Israel, but in this case in our time the beautiful land today is a symbolic place where the people of Jehovah, we carry out activities, worship. through our meetings and preaching.
According to paragraphs 7 to 9 of The Watchtower of May 2020 in its Article: Who is the king of the North today?, it is shown that the king of the North invaded "The beautiful land" a symbolic place where the people of God carries out his worship activities by pursuing the killing and exiling of Jehovah's Witnesses after World War II and in recent years by banning our work, imprisoning the brothers, banning our publications, and taking over our branch and Halls of the Church. Kingdom.
17. What difficulties have the servants of God faced in the territories dominated by “the king of the south”?
In the territories dominated by "The King of the South" In the first half of the twentieth century many brothers faced imprisonment, some witness children were expelled from their schools for being neutral. And in recent years, the loyalty of Jehovah's servants has been tested less directly and during election campaigns some may be tempted to support a political party or candidate, or feel the desire in their mind and heart. that someone wins, with which you would lose your Christian neutrality.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
Well, although currently the king of the south does not make direct attacks against Jehovah's people, during the first half of the 20th century he imprisoned many brothers, other children were expelled from school for being neutral, and he made Jehovah's people suffer a lot.
Christ was very clear in John 18:36 when he was offered the kingdoms Jesus responded that his kingdom was not part of that world so he said it emphatically we have to do the same we know that we are going to be tempted that we are going to have that orientation of being able to trust governments when we see a lot of problems but we do not have to be categorical and say that the kingdom of God is the only solution.
18. How do we feel when we see the fight between these two rival kings? (See also images).
Unlike people who have no faith in Bible prophecies, watching the fight between these two rival kings, we do not feel worried or afraid. On the contrary, our faith becomes stronger, as this confirms that the end of this system is near.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
Well, we see that with the nuclear weapons that the two Kings have they could destroy the earth but Jehovah is not going to allow it. In Isaiah 45:18 he says that he created the Earth for nothing but to make it inhabited, so we are neither worried nor have we Fear on the contrary when we see this rivalry between the king of the south and the king of the North says that our faith becomes stronger because it gives rise to thinking that we are in the last days of this system.
It is essential that we analyze and study the prophecies that are in the Bible, both those of the past and those of the future because that is what it will do is take away that fear and give us strong faith and know that Jehovah is there for whatever we need.
ILLUSTRATION
Our brothers seem to have different challenges, here in the first image our brothers probably live in the country of the king of the North they face persecution and even being in slavery and in the second image our sister probably lives in the country of the king of the south , faces people's discontent and may be under pressure to take a political opinion but both know the times in which they live and trust in the future.
In the image we can see that the brothers who keep in mind that the opposition that comes from the king of the north and the king of the south fulfills what the prophecies say, are strong in faith and live without anxiety. Hence, learning a lot from these prophecies can achieve the same effect on the rest of the brotherhood.
Series of images: 1. The marriage from before, with handcuffs but full of trust. In the background you can see the Russian Government building and a map of Russia. The army attacks with machine guns, warplanes and tanks. 2. The sister from before, full of confidence. In the background you can see the United States Capitol and some maps of the United Kingdom and the United States. A group of angry people at a demonstration, and an attack with tanks, warships and planes. If we keep in mind that the opposition that comes from the “king of the north” and the “king of the south” fulfills what the prophecies say, we will have a stronger faith and we will not live in anguish. (See paragraphs 16 to 18).
LET'S STAY PENDING ON THE PROPHECIES
19. What should we recognize about biblical prophecies?
We must recognize that although we do not fully understand how Bible prophecies will be fulfilled, that does not mean that they will not be fulfilled. Therefore, we must continue to trust that Jehovah will reveal to us at the right time what we need to know, just as he did in the past.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
We are not always going to understand them all. Daniel himself did not understand them, but in Daniel 12:8 and 9 there he tells us how the Angel tells Daniel that the prophecies were secret and sealed until the time of the end, so that does not mean that they will not go away. To comply we simply have to wait for Jehovah to remove the seal so that we can understand it.
And as has been mentioned, it is true that we may not know all the details of all the prophecies in a very exact way, however, using an illustration, it is as if they gave us a wonderful new car that we can drive many kilometers with, and it is also nice with the wonderful engine and there is a small noise in the plastics inside, it would make no sense to send that car to the scrapyard or destroy it just for something that is insignificant, the biblical truths are the same the prophecies are the same there are so many positive things that They strengthen us, they help us, because there is something insignificant and small that we do not know does not mean that Jehovah is not behind it.
20. What exciting prophecies will soon be fulfilled, and what should we continue to do?
Exciting prophecies will soon be fulfilled in which nations will proclaim peace and security. Then governments will attack false religions and destroy them completely. Then they will attack God's people, and thus the final battle of Armageddon will begin. Therefore, we owe it to our good heavenly father, Jehovah, to stay attentive to biblical prophecies and help other people to do the same.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
Well, the proclamation of peace and security will be a different programming because it will begin the destruction of false religion.
After the destruction of false religion, the people of God are left like a Palm Tree standing after the storm according to Ezekiel 38 Gog of Magog will attack the people of Jehovah and this activates the final phase of the great tribulation that is the battle of Armageddon.
And if we are already sure that very soon this is going to happen, as in fact we are, then we have to continue demonstrating this gratitude for Jehovah and intensify our preaching because there are still people who need to know Jehovah and make something of our Christian life. pleasing to Jehovah.
HE REMEMBERS?
Why should we study biblical prophecies?
We must study biblical prophecies because that way we will know where we are in history.
Two reasons, one that will convince us of the veracity of the Bible will logically increase our confidence and then we will also prepare for the future because we know in advance what is going to happen.
What does it take to study biblical prophecies?
To study Biblical prophecies we must have the right attitude, be humble and study very carefully.
Yes, there were several reasons, one is to be humble, to study with confidence and not to be critical, but to get the most out of the prophecy.
If we are humble we will recognize that we need help to understand it and who helps us is Jehovah and has the faithful and prudent slave.
How are the prophecies about the two rival kings being fulfilled?
We have seen the rivalry between these two Kings, the persecution, imprisonment and expulsion of thousands of young people in schools, we hope that the following prophecies will be fulfilled very soon so that the Kingdom of God takes control.
Well, we have seen that both the king of the North, which is Russia and its allies, and the king of the South, which is the Anglo-American world power, are fulfilling their roles that the Bible describes. The king of the North is attacking our brother and there is a rivalry between them. and this can be seen every day in the news.
