For nearly 6,000 years men, under the influence of Satan, have been allowed to go to the limit in their efforts to rule the earth their way. Today we see the results.
God has declared his purpose to put an end to the mismanagement and ruining of the earth. His Word foretells:
“The God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be brought to ruin. . . . It will crush and put an end to all these kingdoms, and it itself will stand to times indefinite.”—Daniel 2:44.
In that coming collision only those who have taken their stand firmly for God’s kingdom can hope to survive. This kingdom is a real government, ruling from heaven, under the direction of God’s own Son, Jesus Christ. What will that government do for surviving mankind? It will accomplish what men never could.
Mankind ‘will beat their spears into pruning shears, and they will learn war no more.’—Isaiah 2:4.
“Death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore.”—Revelation 21:4.
Each one will sit ‘under his own vine and fig tree, and no one will make them afraid.’—Micah 4:4.
These are amazing promises, but would you expect any less from a government by God?
God’s kingdom will accomplish these things because it alone has the power and the means to root out sin and to free mankind from the domination of Satan.
