This good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations; and then the end will come."—Matthew 24:3, 14.

Jehovahs Witnesses are actively proclaiming this good news in over 230 lands and in nearly 400 languages. This foretold work was never previously accomplished on such a global scale.

What do you think?

While it may be true that there are some so called other ones out there that "preach" Jehovahs Witness are the only ones that are doing it worldwide. Where ever you go, JWs are there. We understand that this command is nothing to take lightly and is a warning work that needs to be given. We go to the most distant parts of the earth.

The day of Jehovah is coming.

"14 “The great day of Jehovah is near. It is near, and there is a hurrying [of it] very much. The sound of the day of Jehovah is bitter. There a mighty man is letting out a cry. " Zephaniah 1:14

His day will not be late either! (Habakkuk 2:2, 3) "2 And Jehovah proceeded to answer me and to say: “Write down [the] vision, and set [it] out plainly upon tablets, in order that the one reading aloud from it may do so fluently. 3 For [the] vision is yet for the appointed time, and it keeps panting on to the end, and it will not tell a lie. Even if it should delay, keep in expectation of it; for it will without fail come true. It will not be late."

How can you survive this day of Judgment? It is by taking in accurate knowledge. This is what God requires of us. “This means everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you, the only true God, and of the one whom you sent forth, Jesus Christ.” (John 17:3) So this is why we go door to door, it is what God has told us to do, and his day is almost here and in order to survive it you have to have accurate knowledge. It means your very life.

the witnesses are not alone in doing this and I do think we are living in the times spoken about!and this is the reason many are saying christis about to return however
Matthew 24; 23. At that time if anyone says to you, `Look, here is the Christ!' or, `There he is!' do not believe it.
24. For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect--if that were possible.
25. See, I have told you ahead of time.
26. "So if anyone tells you, `There he is, out in the desert,' do not go out; or, `Here he is, in the inner rooms,' do not believe it.
27. For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
28. Wherever there is a carcass, there the vultures will gather.
29. "Immediately after the distress of those days "`the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.'
30. "At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great glory.
31. And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.
32. "Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near.
33. Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door.
34. I tell you the truth, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened.
35. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
36. "No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

St. Matt. 24:3 The sign of his coming, Friend there is a difference in the sign of his coming & his coming, His coming will be for the Bride only, people for centuries have thought of the Rapture as that of airpalnes falling out of the sky & cars hitting one another, But The coming of Christ for his Bride is just for his Bride in the spiritual form, & the sign of his oming will be in the literal form. The world will not even realize that it has happened, The Bride is taken up to the marriage supper. Now the sign of his coming, There will have to be a sign that the whole world can see, Turn to Rev. 19:14 We see Christ coming back with his BRIDE on white horses, But they do not immediatley sit foot on this earth, That is the sign of his coming, What happens there in Rev. 19:14, We are looking at Christ & his Bride in the air doing what, fighting armeggeddon,& that will take a very short time to do,Turn to Daniel 12:11-12 We know the anti-christ will be given 1260 days or 42 months or 3 1/2 yrs. to sit in the temple, After that alloted time for the anti-christ we now see armeggeddon, Dan.12:11 And from the time that the daily sacrifice is taken away & the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be 1290 days, 30 days more than the alloted time for the anti-christ, what is going on in these 30 extra days, armeggeddon, war on earth & in heaven, remember Christ & his Bride is still in the air or we can say the heavens, & not on this earth yet, 12: Blessed is he that waiteth & cometh to the 1335 days, again another 45 extra days, making it 75 extra days & still Christ & his Bride has not yet set foot on the earth yet, That 75 extra days is the SIGN of his coming, Now why is these people blessed, It is because God allowed them to live through the great tribulation & they had good morals about them, God let's them cross over into the millennium to help re-populated the earth. Now in the last 45 extra days, we need to see why this is the sign of his coming, what is going on after armeggeddon, the first 30 extra days, Christ will not sit in a polluted & defiled temple, so during these extra days the temple is being cleanse & saintified, Making it ready for Christ to come & rule, Now friend to your other verse in Matt. 24:14 This gospel must be preached world wide, That brings in the internet, that is the fastest way to preach it.

Although I agree with Matthew 24, and I agree that the Gospel is being preached all over the world now like never before, I think that Jehovah's Witnesses are a cult that does nothing but deceive people. They don't believe in Jesus as God's Son, they deny the trinity, the efficacy of the blood atonement of Christ, and the eternal punishment of sinners. The more a Jehovah's Witness reads the Bible without Watchtower assistance, the more clear headed they will be.

It means that the good news about Jesus will be preached all over the world, then the end of this worldly system of things will come. Read also the books of Daniel and Revelation. Just be sure you are ready when the end comes! Check out the third chapter of John for info on that.

I know that Christianity is spreading all over the world. There are around 1 million Christians in Iran, which is an incredible number for that Islamic country. Believers are being prepared and Jesus will return. God's will be done on earth.

May God Bless you.

That's the good news. The bad news is; You missed a very small group of people that have been isolated for a very long time. You don't know who they are, where they live, or what language they speak. You're going to have to start over. Sorry.

Jesus always said that he can not do anything without the Father in heaven. so how can Jesus be Jehovah God. who was he praying to? You can not pray to yourself. we are the only ones who worship Jehovah and Jesus Christ and do what Jesus Christ commanded us to do at Matthew 28 verse 19 and 20. we are not a cult. I don't know people keep saying that we are. a cult lives in one state and live all together and worship man. we live in our own homes and pay bills and work just like you do. we come and go as we please, just like you do. we can be your next door neighbor. we are a worldwide brother and sister hood in 235 lands. before you say nasty things about Jehovah Witnesses, learn what we are really like. visit a kingdom hall or our website at www.watchtower.org

I talked to a Jehovah's witness family. I learned from them that they do not believe Christ is God. Even John 1:1 which spelled Word And God with capital letters , was changed to word and god to expressed their distorted view of Christ.

All I can ask them is whether a crucifixion of a absolute common human being have the power to pay for the sins of the whole world.

Jehovah's Witnesses are really Satanic in their beliefs because
they broke the Commandments of God to not add or delete from the completed Word of God (the Bible).

Most of their preaching is geared towards changing Christians who already believe in Christ .By their ability to memorize bible verses, sounding holy and truthful they try to distort the Bible.

Just look at all those similarly naive Muslims who can memorize their whole Quorum, but still have so much anti-Christ rhetorics -
they have called down destruction on themselves. So are Buddhist who memorize whole books, will that deed give them Nivana (nothing).

I think that you're wasting a lot of time thinking about the end of the world. It will happen, but not because of some old myth. It will happen because our sun will eventually burn out. Sooner than that, humans will probably become extinct (at least on this planet) due to temperature extremes caused by global warming.

If you want to do something real about it, help spread awareness of global warming. Or you could spend the rest of your life fretting over a book of ancient mythology.
