The opportunity for blessing Jehovah’s name will never be lacking now before Armageddon’s battle. So give your sacrifice daily to Jehovah God.

A talk on how world peace can be attained could present the crying need for peace as the problem, then show man’s suggested remedies and various efforts to attain peace, and conclude with the one and only solution, Jehovah’s new world after the battle of Armageddon.

What a feeble understatement to relate as a trivial thing one of the greatest events of all history—Jesus Christ’s abyssing Satan the Devil after Armageddon!

With the whole world as the field, in the short time before Armageddon Jehovah’s witnesses are very busy publishing this good news of the Kingdom in all nations for the purpose of a witness. In doing so they use every means at their disposal, so that all may have the opportunity to hear. Among the modern advances in this electronic age are radio and television. These have been a help to God’s ministers. Before Armageddon comes there may yet be much opportunity to use these means of communication further.

This lets us know where we are in the stream of time, that we live in the last days, that soon Armageddon will sweep aside this old world of wickedness to make way for God’s new world of righteousness.

We read, at Revelation 16:16 (NW), that the war of the great day of God the Almighty Is mentioned as being fought at Har-Magedon, or Armageddon. The mere fact that Jehovah’s great battle Is named Armageddon should arouse interest as to why.

He did not say that we should wrangle, or try to force the message upon him or threaten him with destruction at Armageddon. Later on he may become interested.

Consider your audience. What is the level of their understanding? How much do they know of our work? How many of these expressions will be as readily understood by them as by the speaker? Terms like “theocracy,” “remnant,” “other sheep,” even “Armageddon” and “Kingdom,” can convey either a different thought to the hearer’s mind or none at all. Even such terms as “soul,” “hell” and “immortality” need to be clarified if the hearer is unfamiliar with our work. But if the talk is being delivered to the congregation, terms such as these need not be explained. So the setting should be taken into account by the counselor and appropriate counsel given.

Even allusions to “Armageddon” and “the Kingdom’s establishment” convey little meaning without some explanation as to their significance.

They anticipate living after the destruction of this old order in God’s righteous new system of things, where they will be perfected in mind and body. (2 Pet. 3:13, 14) They know that the theocratic society will go through Armageddon and wiIl continue to grow and expand until it fills the earth. They keenly look forward to the share that they may have in the work to be done then, to Jehovah’s glory; so they are grateful for the loving assistance that the organization is providing to make them acceptable servants of God now and to equip them for a part in carrying out the will of God in his righteous new order.
