At a time when the desire for better government is on the minds of people the world over, Jehovah’s Witnesses are launching an international campaign to bring attention to a universal solution.
The witnesses will feature a special edition of The Watchtower magazine, available in over 780 languages in print and online, with the theme “What Is God’s Kingdom?” Local volunteers from Milledgeville will distribute this special-edition magazine during the month of September.
“This magazine will show that there is a real solution to the problem. I’m excited to let people know there’s a solution. There is hope,” Wyalene Holsey, a resident of Milledgeville, said.
Throughout the centuries, millions of Jesus’ followers have prayed the words “thy kingdom come” but wonder what that kingdom is, what it will accomplish, and when it will come. To answer those age-old questions, the witnesses’ special-edition magazine will reference key Bible passages. The explanations have been designed to appeal to both new and experienced Bible readers.
“It’s no secret that many people feel we need better rulership, but few can agree on how to achieve this,” said Robert Hendriks, spokesperson for Jehovah’s Witnesses. “The good news is, Jesus will be the perfect ruler who can and will solve all the problems we are facing here on earth. Our campaign will bring this much-needed message of hope to our communities.”
During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, Jehovah's Witnesses distributed millions of this special-edition magazine through letters, even sending copies to thousands of government officials worldwide. A free digital copy of this special issue of “The Watchtower,” as well as information about the activities of Jehovah’s Witnesses, is available at jw.org.
