I am so grateful that I am back among Jehovah’s people because even if I should die before he vindicates himself at Armageddon, I have the hope of the resurrection. Take it from me, to live without Jehovah’s love and favor is much worse than having AIDS.—Contributed.

“As my study of the heartwarming promises in the Bible continued, the void within me was gradually filled. I grew confident that God’s Kingdom is the only realistic means for bringing peace and security to the earth. God’s war of Armageddon will finally rid the earth of all evil.—Daniel 2:21, 22; Matthew 6:10; Revelation 16:14-16.”

‘But,’ you might say, ‘how can it be that for those who have suffered through the trauma of war, another war, Armageddon, is going to be the solution?’ Armageddon, God’s war against all evil, will be a war without innocent victims. It will not violate principles of justice and goodness. It will be ‘carried on in righteousness,’ in which only the wicked will die.—Revelation 19:11; Proverbs 2:20-22.

Armageddon will have no horrible aftereffects, no recurring nightmares or other psychological wounds.

One person explained their reasons for violence: “Rapes are for the purpose of deflowering a virgin, which has special significance for Satan worshippers. Arson is a symbol of the great conflagration, or Armageddon, and murders are to spread confusion and to fulfill the prophecy in Daniel: ‘But the wicked shall do wickedly.’”
