Preaching the good news of the Kingdom - additions.


A.1 How to pray?

Prayers are meant to be addressed solely to the one true God, “our Heavenly Father”. You may address Him by His title “Heavenly Father” or “Father in Heaven”. You can also address Him by His Hebrew name (in thought only) or as “Jehovah” (both in thought and spoken aloud). Although the actual Hebrew name of God is known, it is so holy that it must not be spoken aloud or misused. (See Chapter 1 – The name of God.)

To ensure we do not do what Satan desires (in the form of the purple-dressed prostitute in Revelation Chapter 17), to prevent ourselves from performing demonic attacks, we are to address our prayers solely to God, our Heavenly Father, just as Jesus did. — Matthew 6:9-13.

Jesus told us: “You must pray, then, this way: ‘Our Father in the heavens, let your name be sanctified. Let your Kingdom come. Let your will take place, as in heaven, also on earth. Give us today our bread for this day; and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And do not bring us into temptation, but deliver us from the wicked one.’” — Matthew 6:9-13.


- We pray to God Himself, our Heavenly Father. If we begin the prayer, for example, with “dear Johawah” or “dear Jehovah” or “dear Heavenly Father” or “dear Father who is in Heaven” or “dear Almighty Creator,” we are still directing our prayer to the one True God, our Heavenly Father. This is a vital part of our Christian lifestyle; specifically, choosing God’s ways over Satan’s. We aim to worship and serve God, to stand alongside our Protector and Life Giver, the One who teaches us what is good for us! — 1 John 5:3, Isaiah 48:17-18.

- You can ask your questions, share your worries with Him, or talk about the things that make you happy or for which you are grateful, just as you would with a friend in everyday life. But in prayer, your friend is the Almighty God Himself, your Heavenly Father.

- You close the prayer, for example, with “I ask You this in Jesus’ name, amen” or “I humbly lay this prayer before Your throne through the mediation of your beloved son Jesus Christ, amen.” Whatever you feel like ending the prayer with, the guideline here is that nothing and no one comes to God except through Jesus Christ. — John 14:6.

- You may also recite the model prayer Jesus provided us — Matthew 6:9-13.

- You are allowed to do long prayers, but if a lengthy prayer isn’t necessary for the situation, why do it? It’s better to avoid Pharisee-like prayers (aiming to look self-important or impressing others), and it’s preferable to avoid rituals such as facing a specific direction at certain times. Instead, try to establish a personal connection with your friend, the Almighty Creator, your Heavenly Father.


The more you strive to befriend your Heavenly Father (and practise Jesus’ teachings - True Christianity), the more you strengthen your friendship with God, and the more blessed and better everything becomes!

It’s simple: the Heavenly Father is the spirit we can contact and pray to. It is permitted, it’s not punishable, and it does not cause harm; all other spiritual activities (like prayer, calling upon spirits, asking the dead, spiritual powers, specific meditations, etc.) are part of what Satan wants us, humanity, to perform. They cause damage and are not allowed.
Praying to the Heavenly Father is like sending a WhatsApp message to God, where He receives it and decides what to do. It’s completely safe, and nothing wrong can result from it. However, Satan wants people to pray to something other than the Heavenly Father, so they unknowingly send their prayers to Satan and demons, who enjoy causing chaos! This can cause trouble not just for the person praying but also for others. Therefore, praying to the Heavenly Father is the only truly safe way.

*Note: Also praying to Jesus, Mary, Allah, Hindu gods, the dead, statues, even to non-existent persons or names like pink elephants, belongs to it; meshing with spiritual powers and asking (or expecting) help from “the universe” also belongs to it.

The upcoming Great Tribulation will be a challenging time on earth (see Matthew Chapter 24), the most perilous period ever experienced and likely the most severe in history. Do we want to side with the lies and death-bringer Satan the Devil, or do we want to stand with our God, our Protector and Life-giver, our Heavenly Father (just as Jesus taught us)?

A.2 Jesus’ Memorial, 22 March 2027.

The Lord’s Evening Meal.
Monday, 22 March 2027, after sunset, I would like to invite you, dear brothers and sisters, to hold a memorial service and reflect on Jesus’ death. It’s a sacred and mandatory service. You can have it in your room, alone or together with your brothers and sisters in faith. And for those who are interested, I will include an invitation link below to the Jehovah’s Witnesses site, which also holds the memorial service each year, if you want to experience their holy ceremony.

We will remain assured because Jesus died for us, and through his perfect life, he paid the complete Ransom for our sins. With that, he finished his sacred service on earth—therefore securing the forgiveness of our sins and making eternal life possible for all who place faith in him! — John 3:16.

“For God loved the world so much that he gave his only-begotten Son, so that everyone exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life.” — John 3:16.

Jesus gave the commandment, “Keep doing this in remembrance of me.” — Luke 22:19, 1 Corinthians 11:24.


During Jesus’ last supper, when he was with his anointed brothers, he made a new covenant with them. It is called the Kingdom covenant - for they will be ruling with him in the Kingdom in Heaven. — Luke 22:28-30.
Those anointed brothers are members of the Bride Class. (see Chapter 5 - The Kingdom). He gave them the commandment to “Keep doing this in remembrance of me.” — Luke 22:19.
So, each year they partake in the sacred event, the Last Supper, in remembrance of Jesus’ death. The other Christians, the large flock that goes to paradise on earth, will be witnesses of the sacred event, the Last Supper, in remembrance of Jesus’ death.


It is an essential commandment for every Christian to join or hold the memorial service. It is a sacred act, even when performed alone. It can be as short as “after sunset on 22 March 2027, remembering what Jesus did for us, how he remained obedient to the Heavenly Father until the end - yes, until death on a torture stake.” — Philippians 2:8.

To explore this sacred topic in more depth, you can also read Luke 22. (It is advised first to study the subject “The Bride Class” a bit better, to gain a clearer understanding of what it is all about—the heavenly covenant Jesus made with his anointed brothers and such. Luke Chapter 22 will have much more impact.)

For those who want to go in more depth, I have prepared a ZIP file with some songs and my evening plan for this service as examples. Feel free to use it.
You can hold the ceremony on your own or together with your friends or family in faith. When you hold the ceremony with multiple people, you can sing the songs together, and each person can read a part of Luke 22. It’s a holy ceremony you can perform together, sharing a beautiful, very special moment. Still, you can also do it on your own, and then you don’t have to feel alone – Heavenly Father worshippers, your fellow True Christians, are holding the same ceremony worldwide! So even when you are alone in your room, you are not truly alone.

We’re all in this together. We all face the same struggles, and we all rely on the perfect Sacrifice, the perfect Ransom, and the perfect Lamb of God, Jesus. And we are all dependent on his teachings! And last but not least - we all share the same Heavenly Father!


Because the yearly sacred service is closely linked to the Jewish Passover tradition and the original events involving Moses, the Pharaoh, and the ten plagues in Egypt—notably the tenth plague—here is a link about Passover to help you better understand what the sacred service is about: What Is the Passover? (JW.org)

The webpage above provides additional background on what is being remembered during the sacred service. It also shows the connection between the Jewish Passover tradition and the holy service, emphasising that Jesus died for us on the torture stake as the Perfect Sacrifice, the Perfect Lamb of God.

The Jehovah’s Witnesses, a Christian organisation that also worships the Heavenly Father, observe this sacred service annually with great loyalty. I do it at home, but for those who wish to experience it or see how it is done, here is a link to find a local address in your neighbourhood: Memorial of Jesus’ Death (JW.org)

Note: Just out of precaution, during the service when the wine and bread are passed on... Please do not drink or eat from it; the emblems are meant for the members of the Bride Class. — 1 Corinthians 11:27-29.


The package with songs and other material that I use at home can be downloaded here: Memorial-2027-English.zip

Future dates of Jesus’ memorial:
2027: Monday, March 22
2028: Sunday, April 9
2029: Thursday, March 29

With thanks to the Heavenly Father and His servants at JW.org for the beautiful songs, lyrics, and accurate Bible material they made available.


May the undeserved kindness of the Heavenly Father and His beloved son, Jesus, be with you!

A.3 Request for volunteers.

Dear brothers and sisters,

Are there people who would like to volunteer to:
- Assisting with audio work to improve speech file quality, and helping with video projects to achieve the proper speech-to-audio volume ratios, ensuring that the God’s Kingdom videos on YouTube sound great.
- Write texts in English or in your native language to share the good news of the Kingdom.
- Create YouTube or TikTok videos to spread the good news of the Kingdom.
- produce audiobooks so that the information can be listened to (for example, before sleeping or during lunch break).
- Write texts or make YouTube videos suitable for minors (children) that share the good news of the Kingdom.

The pangs of distress are already occurring and intensifying as they approach the start of the Great Tribulation. Then perilous times will appear on earth. The chaos, suffering, and misery will culminate in the final war—the Armageddon—that will ever happen.

These upcoming times will be challenging for people on earth. Individuals must take a stand for the Truth, be with God, and remain with the Living; and to leave false religion behind, turning their backs on their murderer, deceiver, and death-bringer, Satan the Devil.

But how would people worldwide know that Satan, the bringer of death, founded many religions on earth? What should they look for? Which religious ideas are truthful, and which are wrong?
Well, that’s where God’s written Word comes in, and that’s where preaching the good news of the Kingdom plays a vital role! Spreading accurate and truthful information based on God’s written Word enables people to understand what is happening, finally, what will occur in the near future on earth, and how to turn away from Satan and all false religion, to be part of the Living and to stand alongside our Almighty Creator, our Protector, and Life-Giver: our Heavenly Father!

That’s why the Heavenly Father requests us, brothers and sisters, to perform more preaching of the good news of the Kingdom, so that it will reach more people, and more people will receive the blessings that True Christianity offers. — John 4:23-24, Revelation 14:6-7.



It’s not a new church, nor is it a new Christian teaching. It’s about lovingly and kindly bringing the original teaching of Jesus back to people’s attention to show them why we all need it so much - and what blessings it offers. It’s not about any buildings (like a church or mosque), but it’s about worshipping the Father in Truthfulness, as He really wants it.

Jesus said to the Samaritan woman, “Nevertheless, the hour is coming, and it is now, when the true worshippers will worship the Father with spirit and truth, for indeed, the Father is looking for ones like these to worship him. God is a Spirit, and those worshipping him must worship with spirit and truth.” — John 4:23-24.


May the undeserved kindness of the Heavenly Father and His beloved son, Jesus Christ, be with you.

Preaching the good news of the Kingdom – additions.



A.4 Information – God-empowered preaching.

Jesus gave the commandment to preach the good news of the Kingdom. — Matthew 24:14, 10:1–11, Luke 10:1, 10:9, 8:1, 4:43, Acts 5:42, 10:42.

Worldwide, Christianity (that which the world perceives as Christianity) has somewhat lost its way, and the preaching of the good news of the Kingdom is not happening enough. Since social media platforms (especially YouTube) inundate people with false religious ideas, they prevent them from receiving the truthful and valuable information we desperately need. At the same time, they assist Satan in spreading more nonsense that will not help people survive the Great Tribulation and the Armageddon. Therefore, especially on social media platforms with a broad reach like YouTube, greater effort is needed to proclaim the good news of the Kingdom.

Our Heavenly Father requests this because it must be done as the Great Tribulation and Armageddon draw closer. To stand firmly in Christ and be protected by God and His army, it is necessary to worship the Heavenly Father correctly. It is essential for people to turn away from false religion, so that they do not stand on the side of Satan, the bringer of lies and death.


Guidelines:

- Already being at the side of our Heavenly Father.
God-empowered preaching is only possible if we act according to His will – that is, if we stand with God, pray solely to our Heavenly Father, and endeavour to do things His way.

- Delivering the message kindly and lovingly to our fellow human beings.
We don’t feel superior to others. We are all in the same boat. We all depend on God, the Perfect Sacrifice that Jesus Christ is, and on God’s written Word. We all face the problem of criminal records (see Chapter 6), and both the Great Tribulation and Armageddon lie in the distant future.

- Focus on why we all need it.
We talk about the problem situations. Satan misled the whole world with lies and false teachings. Satan brings lies and death. The false teachings of Satan bring all kinds of troubles, including psychological troubles, mental troubles, disasters, wrong behaviour, wars, criminality, health problems, etc. Great Tribulation and the Armageddon in the distant future. Without being aware of the problem situations, People might think “Ohh, I don’t need God or God’s solutions”.

- Focus on what blessings it will bring.
We share this information not to scare people or to highlight doomsday scenarios; we aim to inform them about what God’s Word says on the matter—and to talk about the wonderful solutions God has for us!
It’s not just the bad news; it is the good news of the Kingdom! This way, people gain more insight into the troubling aspects (reacting with “Oh no, that’s terrible!”), but also learn about the beautiful solutions their Heavenly Father provides (with reactions like “Yes! That’s so amazing, I want to be a Christian too!”).



What subjects belong to “the good news of the Kingdom”?

Chapter 1 - Be discerning!
- The vast amount of false teachings worldwide, including on social media
- Are we certain we are worshipping the Heavenly Father?
- God’s name appears almost 7,000 times in scripture, but is hidden in most Bible translations.
- Order of importance in the model prayer
- Satan’s work - opposing what God deems important
- Satan, the purple-dressed prostitute, spreading false teachings, blurring the view, is very dangerous
- Satan’s seven-headed, ten-horned beast, representing the worldwide political system on earth
- Blessings (including eternal life) from the Heavenly Father because we choose to follow Jesus’ teachings. It is a living faith; we can already experience the blessings today!

Chapter 2 - Worldly Traditions.
- True Christianity and Jesus’ teachings are at the centre; he showed the way.
- Satan claimed, “God is a liar, we don’t need Him,” questioning God’s authority.
- Satan attempted to seduce Adam and Eve, as well as Job.
- Love and happiness come from knowing the Heavenly Father and being aware of our spiritual needs.
- Nutrition is vital, both for the body and for the spiritual heart (the inner person).
- Satan is very deceptive; he can (and has for millennia) make something truly terrible appear beautiful.
- Be cautious with worldly celebrations—consider where they originate.
- Becoming aware that some things are wrong and letting go can be confronting, but rejoice in learning more from God’s Word—It brings wonderful blessings!

Chapter 3 - Stumbling.
- Everybody on earth sins, even birth results in inherited sin from Adam and Eve.
- It’s a process of learning, learning to walk in Christ’s teachings.
- We will stumble. Not intentionally, but it will happen.
- Practice makes perfect. Our daily bread includes God’s Word and prayer.
- Knowing Satan’s accusations against God gives us an advantage; we are better able to recognise Satan’s tactics and the things he strives for.
- The Heavenly Father loves us immensely!
- Cultivating gratitude towards Heavenly Father.
- Encouraging our fellow brothers and sisters in Christ.

Chapter 4 - The temporary malfunction.
- God is eternal, the dire situation is just temporary
- Satan brought sin into the world, and it spread on earth
- Is eternal life possible? Men became more than 900 years old
- Sacrifices in ancient times for the forgiveness of sins
- What perfect Sacrifice is needed to resolve the problem? Jesus was sent to earth to die for us
- Jesus remained perfect under every challenge from Satan
- What other solution is needed to resolve the entire problem? The complete solution is more than just Jesus coming to earth to die for our sins (God’s Kingdom in action)

Chapter 5 - The Kingdom.
- Model prayer “thy kingdom come” — what does it mean?
- What is God’s Kingdom?
- When was God’s Kingdom created?
- Who is the leader of God’s Kingdom?

- What is the Armageddon?
- How will God’s Kingdom bring an end to God’s mission to save humanity from all misery?

Chapter 6 - The Lawsuits.
- First lawsuit: Satan’s false accusations against the Heavenly Father.
- Understanding Satan’s false accusations helps us avoid his traps.
- Jesus won the lawsuit for the Heavenly Father, as did other loyal persons in biblical history.
- Second lawsuit: every human stands in court with a lengthy criminal record and multiple bids for the death penalty. Jesus enters the court, and those who have faith in Him are set free and granted eternal life.
- In that case, Jesus paid the price—the Ransom—for those who put their faith in Him, setting them free.

- All prophecies have been fulfilled. The Heavenly Father, His beloved son Jesus Christ, and God’s Kingdom have completed their mission—the end of all evil. The dead have been resurrected. Humanity has attained perfection. Paradise on earth is realised - enjoy eternal life!


The topics about the good news of the Kingdom are numbered in this way, as God instructed me in this letter to humanity. For other preaching work, such as telling people about it, writing texts about it, or making YouTube videos, you can choose any topic from the list of the good news of the Kingdom. Even a small piece of text or information, for example, about God’s name or God’s Kingdom, counts as preaching the good news of the Kingdom!
It does not have to be entire books or hours-long YouTube videos. God is very pleased with even the smallest amount of time, text, or video dedicated to the truthful preaching of the good news of the Kingdom. Our Heavenly Father rejoices over the effort we put into working for Him!

You can choose any subject and share it with others. Feel free to include your personal experiences or examples as long as the biblical information aligns with God’s Word and accurately reflects Jesus’ teachings.

Because some subjects are more difficult to understand than others, people drink milk before starting solid food. It’s best to begin with easier-to-understand topics before moving on to more complex ones that reveal deeper prophecies. 🙂


The example prayer Jesus gave us can also help us decide what subject to choose. “Our Father that is in Heaven”. The subject “only worship the Heavenly Father” is a good starting point and has great importance. “Hallowed be Thy name” is also a good subject to study and share with others. God’s name, Hebrew letters, the name hidden in most Bibles worldwide. Why is it hidden? Etc.

The topic about Satan, the wrongdoer, the mass murderer, the deceiver, the liar, and how he brought all the trouble on earth is a good subject. Some people say they don’t believe in God because they wonder why there would be so much misery on earth. But this topic explains that it is not God who causes the misery, but Satan’s rebellion against God that is the cause of all the suffering.

The subject “Thy Kingdom come”. God’s Kingdom is a pretty complex study topic, but it is a crucial part of Jesus’ teachings. It can be explained as God’s solution to end all suffering and misery.
You can also distribute the texts from the “Preaching the good news of the Kingdom” series or use them as examples for your own verbal preaching, written materials, or YouTube videos.
Choose a subject, do some Bible study on it to ensure you have accurate information, and create something beautiful of your own! The sky is the limit!


It’s work for God, it’s special preaching. How does it work?
There is a difference between people telling things and God telling things. When we humans talk or write, we discuss human matters. But this special action of our Heavenly Father to bring True Christianity back to people's attention is God-empowered preaching; it is distinct from human methods.

- Initially, gaining the correct knowledge is essential. Even about a small but significant topic like “what is God’s name”. First, gather accurate information; how can we preach or advise someone on a subject we don’t know? In the typical preaching approach, it is vital first to learn the precise details of the central topic, then share them with others.

- Then, to serve God specially—what we might call God-empowered preaching—it’s important to humble ourselves; we seek no honour or thanks for it. All honour and thanks belong to the Heavenly Father. So, when a piece of work is finished, we don’t say, “Ohh look what I made, I’m so good!” but rather, “Oh Heavenly Father, it’s so beautiful what you made!”
(So, it is definitely not about seeking more respect for ourselves, and certainly not about making money from it. God helps people out of trouble without asking for payment!)

- Prayer. We say our prayer before we begin work and sometimes during work, asking the Heavenly Father for help, guidance, and the Holy Spirit, so that He guides us to produce the outcome He desires, in the way He wants it; ensuring that our part of the effort supports the Heavenly Father’s purpose in spreading the good news of the Kingdom. We aim to create something — whether text, a YouTube video, or verbal preaching — that aligns with the Heavenly Father’s will. Then, start writing about what you know. Provide a scripture quote so others can verify the information. You will be guided, supported, or even corrected by our Heavenly Father in the process. This can happen in many ways, but if you don’t notice anything special, it doesn’t mean it isn’t working. It’s a journey of learning —learning how to work with God to create something—whether a text, a YouTube video, verbal preaching, or even a painting.


Personally, during my journey of learning to serve God, I experienced the following. Under the influence of the Holy Spirit, I began preaching in my mind to others, as if I were speaking to a group about God’s Word. Afterwards, I felt compelled to write down what I had just shared in my mind. This led to the creation of a beautiful piece of writing. While this doesn’t always happen, similar things can occur. Another experience was when I wrote a chapter (Chapter 1) about the dangers of false religion within the church. The Heavenly Father clearly showed me that this piece had to be removed and rewritten because it was too confronting for church members. I was being corrected. It feels like a close connection with God, like a close friendship. Just as friendships between people grow over time, so does the friendship between people and God. Likewise, cooperation between God and those who work for Him deepens over time. Therefore, extraordinary moments are not necessary; instead, God guides and corrects those who serve Him.

Note: Always ensure you stay on the side of the Heavenly Father. Wicked spirits often try to influence people (even those who pray to the Lord sometimes encounter this). They may claim, write, or appear in YouTube videos to say that Jesus provided them with information or instructions; be cautious. They are not receiving that information from Jesus or from God. That is not how God provides information to people; He uses His established channels—God’s written Word, His Holy Spirit, brothers of Christ on earth, and His servants in the preaching work—to convey information.


That’s why, concerning all that we believe related to religion, we have to verify it repeatedly with God’s Word—the sword of the Spirit. — Ephesians 6:17
Having accurate knowledge of God’s Word is vital in everyday life and in this special form of preaching, because it ensures that everything we say, write, or preach is truthful according to God’s Word. If we suddenly think, “Oh, God is helping me! I have to tell people to pray to a pink elephant!” then we clearly don’t have God as our source of inspiration!

-Without the Heavenly Father, this work cannot be done. — 1 Corinthians 1:26-31.
You can compare it with David, who threw down the giant Goliath with a stone. If David had been without God, Goliath wouldn’t have been hurt so much by the stone. But because of David’s faith in the Heavenly Father, throwing that stone had an enormous impact! — 1 Samuel 17:1-54.


How beautiful it would be if more people found God and worshipped the Heavenly Father as He truly desires. Experiencing living Faith and all the blessings that accompany it—joy, peace, happiness, and gratitude towards their Father for all the good things He grants them.

Preparing people to walk firmly in Christ’s teachings so that when the Great Tribulation and then the Armageddon come, many will remain strong, be able to hold it together, and be well-equipped to help others in need.

And because there are so many sources of information that oppose God’s Word and thus oppose Jesus’ teachings, we will help our Heavenly Father by spreading the good news of the Kingdom into the world. In particular, social media platforms have a broad reach. Due to this extensive reach, what happens if inaccurate information is shared? Many people can be misled by it and therefore miss the incredible benefits of being with the Heavenly Father!


How incredible would it be if many loyal followers of Jesus, the True Christians, joined the special preaching project of our Heavenly Father and spread the good news of the Kingdom through social media channels with extensive reach?

I almost visualised it like our Heavenly Father, the almighty Creator, threw us a snowball: pure and white, truthful and lifesaving. Then we, Christians, do our best to throw the snowball further, still pure and white, truthful and lifesaving (meaning accurate according to God’s Word). So that many of us spread the snowball - preaching the good news of the Kingdom!

It may require some practice (which also applies to me, as I do a lot of Bible study and often learn to write in English and rewrite texts!). If we are unsure whether what we have created aligns with what the Heavenly Father desires, we can pray again, asking for guidance, direction, and correction so that the final result is as our Heavenly Father wants.

God, our Heavenly Father, loves you and loves us all. Out of love for our Father in Heaven and for our fellow human beings, they all deserve the love and all the blessings that come from being at God’s side. How wonderful it was that we received all that ‘good news of the Kingdom’ information! Out of love for our fellow human beings, we like to spread the good news so that as many people as possible can benefit!

A.5 Jesus vs Satan.

“Jesus said to him: “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” — John 14:6.

And “For God loved the world so much that he gave his only-begotten Son, so that everyone exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life” — John 3:16.


Jesus, the Christ, is a vital part of God’s plan to save humanity from suffering, to achieve paradise on earth, and to enable eternal life. — Psalm 37:29, John 3:16, 10:28, 11:25-27, 17:3.
Okay. These are essential things to know about Jesus. We Christians want to be alive. And we want to know the Truth. And we want to walk the way of True Christianity toward everlasting life!

Jesus said to her: “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me, even though he dies, will live; and everyone who is alive and believes in me will never die at all. Do you believe this?” She said to him: “Yes, Lord, I have believed that you are the Christ, the Son of God, the one who is to come into the world.” — John 11:25-27.


What about Satan, the Devil? In God’s Word, he is described as the anti-Christ, the ruler or ‘god’ of the old system of things. — 1 John 4:3, 2 John 1:7, John 14:30, 2 Corinthians 4:4.

What does the ‘anti-Christ’ mean? Anti-Christ means he is opposing Christ; he is opposing Jesus and his teaching. So, by being the adversary factor, Satan can be seen as the “anti-way, the anti-truth and the anti-life”.

The ‘anti-way’, what could that mean? You can imagine it as a road filled with many traffic signs, roadblocks, and fences that clearly say, “Do not go here! End of the road!! Danger! Do not trespass here!!” So, in that anti-way, Satan and all he has brought forth on earth (especially false religion) are clearly signalling, “Do not go here!! End of the road!! Danger! Do not trespass here!!” This is the type of message conveyed.

And the ‘anti-truth’, what could that mean? Well, truth is trustworthy, truthful, and honest; it reflects what is real. In contrast, anti-truth clearly relates to lies, deception, and misleading information. Thus, Satan provides the earth with deceptive and misleading information that is not truthful; they must be lies. — John 8:44.

And finally, what could the ‘anti-life’ mean? Well, Jesus’ perfect ransom and sacrifice as the perfect Lamb of God offer eternal life. Even people who have already died will come back to life when they exercise faith in Jesus Christ (John 11:25-27). Satan, the Devil, offers the opposite; his work and influence result in people not being alive.


Consider this: all humans in history have died because of Satan. Satan led his own angels astray and, because they became convinced of their actions, caused their deaths, which will also occur in the future. He knows that everyone who joins him will face judgement and destruction, yet he continues to cause chaos by misleading both his angels and humans into doing evil. — Matthew 8:28-34, Genesis 6:1-2, Jude 1:6.
And then, after misleading his angels, he began to deceive the first human beings, Adam and Eve, to lead them into sin and thus bring death to humanity. — Genesis 2:16-17, 3:1-7.

And please consider this... many war victims around the world have died. Not only people living in countries at war, but also soldiers who tried to protect their nation, and those sent to fight. They died... but why? Because Satan influences people to engage in destructive behaviour, including engaging in wars.

Not only through wars, but every single person who has died in human history has perished because of Satan’s rebellion against God. This makes Satan the ultimate mass murderer! His influence is therefore of a death-bringing nature - in other words: Satan is the death-bringer! — John 8:44, 1 Peter 5:8.

And because Satan is known for bringing all kinds of harmful things and even misleading people into believing they are beneficial, this has led the entire world to follow Satan into “death certificate signing behaviour blindly”. God’s Word warns us that Satan “keeps disguising himself as an angel of light”. This means that not only does Satan try to make himself appear good, but he also makes all the harmful, death-bringing things and false religions he promotes seem like they are good. — 2 Corinthians 11:14.

Consider various religious and spiritual traditions such as the Church, Islam, Hinduism, Atheism, Shamanic practices, Buddhism, veneration of the dead, asking angels for assistance, seeking help from the ‘universe’, practising spiritual ‘healing’ systems like Reiki, using spiritual or demonic powers, new age philosophies, fortune-telling, and astrology. What do they all have in common? They are all associated with Satan worship, or, in other words, they deceive us into engaging in what could be described as ‘Death certificate signing behaviour’. Is this what Jesus taught us to do? No. Is it what Satan deceives humankind into? Yes. And what did Jesus teach us? Should we worship Satan or only worship the Heavenly Father? — Matthew 4:10, 1 John 5:19.

“We know that we originate with God, but the whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one.” — 1 John 5:19.

“Then Jesus said to him: “Go away, Satan! For it is written, ‘It is Jehovah your God you must worship, and it is to him alone you must render sacred service.’” — Matthew 4:10.


Wow... That’s quite heavy! So, Satan is causing death and deceiving the whole world into thinking it’s a beautiful thing? To get people all over the world to voluntarily choose Satan’s side so he can easily lead them to their deaths? *Oof*, that’s heavy!

And especially now that God, our Heavenly Father, has announced that the Great Tribulation and Armageddon are near, we all must be very discerning about the ideas we believe in - to ensure we are not on the side of our murderer and deceiver, Satan the Devil, but on the side of our Protector and Life-Giver, the one true God, our Heavenly Father! — Matthew 22:31-32, John 10:27-29.

“Regarding the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was spoken to you by God, who said: ‘I am the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob’? He is the God, not of the dead, but of the living.” — Matthew 22:31-32.

“My sheep listen to my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. I give them everlasting life, and they will by no means ever be destroyed, and no one will snatch them out of my hand. What my Father has given me is something greater than all other things, and no one can snatch them out of the hand of the Father.” — John 10:27-29.


So, again, dear brothers and sisters in Christ, we must verify, verify, verify whether the elements of our belief are truly in accordance with God’s Word. Handle the sword of the Spirit, that is, God’s Word, to confirm whether our beliefs are genuinely true! — Ephesians 6:17.

Many organisations have blinded people worldwide with false teachings, and it does not lead to life! Soon, the Great Tribulation will begin, starting with the destruction of all false religions and those affiliated with them. (See Chapter 5 - The Kingdom - Great Tribulation and the Armageddon).

We cannot simply think: “Oh, the church told me those things, so it is probably, maybe, possibly something that came from God’s word? And because God’s Word is Truth, then those things will probably be truthful as well? If the church tells me that pink elephants do exist and that it’s possibly written in God’s Word, then probably pink elephants do exist?”

*Note: This warning is not meant as a judgement towards people of the church or those belonging to any religious organisations, but to bring to attention that we -always- need to verify, verify, verify the information with God’s Word to ensure we are not part of Satan’s false religion. Instead, we are part of the group that will be living, the group that will be alive - worshipping our Heavenly Father, as Jesus taught us! — Matthew 4:10, 22:31-32, John 10:27-29.


*Oof*. That was quite heavy... Very confronting. But at the same time... Thank you, dear Heavenly Father, for warning us! Thank you also for your beloved son, Jesus Christ, who warned us about it! Thank you for your written Word; the Bible also warns us about it.

You are again showing us that you love us, humankind, by clearly telling us what is happening, so that we know how to avoid the trap of our death-bringer, Satan the Devil, and thus be part of the living! Thank You for that! Thank you for teaching us and helping us learn what is good for us!

“This is what Jehovah says, your Repurchaser, the Holy One of Israel:
“I, Jehovah, am your God,
 The One teaching you to benefit yourself,
 The One guiding you in the way you should walk.” — Isaiah 48:17.

Preaching the good news of the Kingdom – additions.



A.6 A scientific approach: Do God and His Christ exist?

A moment in history, over 13.8 billion years ago...
There was nothing. No space. No matter what kind. No universe. Then suddenly, there was a big bang! An incredible amount of energy, confined in an almost impossibly small space, became available.

That tiny space was so small it couldn’t even be seen under a microscope! But that little space didn’t stay small for long. At an almost unimaginable rate, it started expanding, and in just a few seconds, it grew larger than our current solar system!

And it wasn’t contemplating stopping; no, it continued expanding, and as of today, it is still expanding at an increasing rate. Because that immensely hot, dense mixture of energetic particles was spread over a growing area, it began to cool down.

Then the first laws came into being: the strong and weak forces, electromagnetism, and gravity. Under the influence of gravity, these particles began to attract each other. They started to form small clumps of matter. This process continued, and the clumps of matter kept growing. They reached the size of planets and continued to expand. Until something spectacular happened: the big heavy clumps of matter reached critical mass for self-ignition and bam! The first stars were born!

Those newborn stars were no coincidence. For God’s plan to create a physical universe to form planet Earth with life on it, a wide range of elements was necessary. Elements like carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen are especially crucial for physical life. Therefore, some stars were needed to produce a broad spectrum of elements. These new stars were the first factories of elements, through which various new and heavier elements formed. In nuclear fusion, lighter particles fuse to form heavier elements.

Then, millions of years later, the star’s fuel was depleted, and the delicate balance between the outward force of nuclear fusion and the inward force of gravity that kept the star alive was disrupted. Because less fuel was burned, it produced less outward explosive force, while the inward force of gravity remained the same. The result: the star collapsed under its own gravity, causing a massive implosion. During this implosion phase, matter was compressed and heated at an unimaginable rate, leading to the star exploding. The star went supernova!! (Depending on the mass of the star).

A massive explosion violently propelled the newly created, heavier elements into space. This event became a source of heavier elements in the developing universe. In this way, stars serve as factories for God, producing all kinds of elements (as shown in the periodic table) and the elements essential to the existence of physical life.

This process has been repeated, and as of today, it continues. Consequently, it continues to fill the ever-expanding new universe with a wide variety of new elements.

All those new stars gave rise to entire galaxies. More star-forming galaxies began to appear, and even entire galaxy clusters formed. — Genesis 1:14-15.


Now, let’s take a step back to consider God and Jesus.
God first created Jesus at the beginning of creation, and then, through Jesus, He made the rest of the angels in Heaven. As a result, He (God) had many friends in Heaven who all behaved very well. Then God thought, “It would also be nice if we made physical life forms that could also be our friends.” After that, God, through Jesus, began the process of physical creation, including stars, galaxies, and galaxy clusters.

Because of the events in the universe, with all those stars emitting a tremendous amount of various forms of radiation and stars exploding left and right, along with rocks and planets moving through the cosmos at incredible speeds, God thought, “If I want to create a planet with life on it, that planet must be in a safe environment, or else the life would quickly perish.” Then God ensured that, within the ongoing creation—still happening today—in the galaxy scientists call “the Milky Way,” in one of its outermost regions, a solar system formed.

Far from the centre of the galaxy, where a violent black hole with immense mass and destructive radiation exists, in one of the spiral arms, it appears to be a relatively safe place in an effort to support the development of physical life.

Let’s focus on that solar system itself, where God planned to create life.
That particular solar system, with a star and many, many, many planets orbiting it, does not look today as it did billions of years ago. Countless planets, churned about like in a pinball machine or a Ping-Pong ball, collided with each other or were hurled out of the solar system at breakneck speeds — this was what the newly formed solar system looked like. Not a very safe place to live.

Earth itself was a scorching lava planet, unsuitable for life in any way. And all those other planets hurtling through the solar system like ping-pong balls, occasionally colliding? That isn’t a very safe environment for life to exist.

Millions of years later, after many of those planets had collided, leaving only fragments as smaller rocks, and numerous planets had been ejected from the solar system, it had become a quieter place. Over these millions of years, the Earth cooled considerably. Because water is vital for physical life, God sent many icy comets to Earth to ensure an abundance of water.

God also placed Earth in the perfect position within the solar system – specifically at the ideal distance from the star, which scientists refer to as the “Goldilocks zone”. — Job 38:4, Psalm 104:5.
That is the optimal distance at which the planet is not too close to the star, preventing extreme heat and water evaporation, and not too far, so water remains in liquid form. This precise distance from the star allows water to exist in a fluid state.

To protect Earth from intruders such as planets, stars, asteroids, and comets from outside the solar system, God has placed large planets in the solar system, such as Jupiter. Because Jupiter is a massive planet with intense gravity, incoming objects are drawn towards it and often fall into it. It acts as a safety net for intruders entering the solar system. If they do not land on Jupiter, its great gravity will throw these objects out of the solar system, much like a catapult. This mechanism provides significant protection for Earth by reducing the risk of boulders, asteroids, and other objects entering the solar system. Although it does not offer 100% protection—since some objects may still reach Earth—it provides a much higher level of safety than having no protection at all.

To make life possible, a moon was needed around the Earth. God caused a planet, about half the size of Earth and called “Theia” by scientists, to collide with Earth. Parts of Earth and Theia became a ring of debris orbiting Earth. These fragments began to clump under gravity, and that is how the Moon formed.
Due to the Moon’s gravitational pull on Earth, Earth’s tides formed. Because of the tides, the amino acids (the building blocks of life) in the water were thoroughly mixed, and they began creating more complex amino acids. This process continued, eventually leading to the emergence of the first cellular life forms, such as bacteria and amoebas.

This process was repeated, leading to the evolution of single-celled organisms into multicellular life forms. They became small, fish-like creatures. These tiny fish continued to evolve; black spots appeared where their eyes would eventually develop. They also started to form small tails and fins. — Genesis 1:20-21.

Due to tidal currents, fish regularly washed up on shore. The fish ended up on land. Most of them died, but some adapted to breathing on land and became the first land-dwelling life forms. These crawling life forms evolved into many land-dwelling and walking species, including one we might know: humans! — Genesis 1:24-25, 1:27.

Now, the relevant question: this incredible process of creation — did it happen purely by chance, or is the one who initiated and guided it someone with immense knowledge and intelligence at His disposal? — Genesis 1:31, Isaiah 45:18.


Let’s examine further essential events in human history that also demonstrate the existence of God. Earth is now teeming with life, including animals, plants, and humans. God, rightly, is the one to be worshipped, and He is deserving of much gratitude. An angel of God in Heaven, however, was jealous and desired the recognition that God truly deserves. That angel turned to the evil side and became Satan, the Devil. He became God’s opponent. Instead of creating the wonderful and beautiful things that God brought into existence, Satan brought all the misery into the world, believing he could do it better than God Himself.

He then misled some angels, and they became demons. Afterwards, he seduced Eve to eat from the forbidden fruit, claiming that God is a liar and that humans would not die if they ate from the forbidden fruit, as God had warned Adam and Eve. — Genesis 2:16-17, 3:1-7.

From that moment when Eve ate the forbidden fruit, she told Adam to also eat from it, and sin entered the world; through sin, death was introduced to humanity. — Romans 5:12.

“That is why, just as through one man sin entered into the world and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because they had all sinned.” — Romans 5:12.


That was when the malfunction began in God’s grand plan for humanity to live eternally in paradise on earth under the most magnificent, healthy, loving, and joyful conditions. Paradise on earth? No more. People being loyal to God? It started happening less and less. The people experiencing a super lovely, happy, healthy, and especially eternal life? No more.
Thus, because Satan, the Devil, the opponent of God, had become evil, that beautiful life in paradise on earth that God had planned for humankind was at risk.

God, the Almighty Creator, provided help to humankind by bringing Truthful information to earth to teach them what is good for them. — Isaiah 48:17.

“This is what Jehovah says, your Repurchaser, the Holy One of Israel:
“I, Jehovah, am your God,
 The One teaching you to benefit yourself,
 The One guiding you in the way you should walk.” — Isaiah 48:17.


God provided humankind with this valuable information not only through the Prophets, from whom the Old Testament originates, but also later by sending His firstborn, Jesus Christ, to earth. Together with His apostles, this resulted in the writing of the New Testament. All this information was recorded in a book we now call God’s Word, the Bible. That book contains the crucial message that God, the almighty Creator, wanted humankind to know. It was intended so that humanity could learn and live in a way that their Heavenly Father approves, and not be lured into a life leading to “death certificate signing”—a way of life that Satan, the opposition party, tries to tempt humanity into.
God not only sent His beloved son, Jesus Christ, to earth to teach us and to bring True Christianity to humankind, but also as the Perfect Ransom—The Perfect Sacrifice to die for the forgiveness of our sins. — John 1:29.

“The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and he said: “See, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!”” — John 1:29.


When God sent his firstborn of all creation, Jesus Christ, to earth, he was not only known as a gentle and kind person during his time on earth, but he also demonstrated his might! For example, he fed 5,000 people with five loaves of bread and two fish. — Matthew 14:13-21, John 6:1-13. He also cast out demons and healed the sick through miraculous healings. -Matthew 8:28-34, Luke 8:26-39, Matthew 4:23). Additionally, he commanded the wind and the sea to calm, and he walked on water. — Matthew 14:24-33, Mark 4:37-39.

And something even more remarkable: he raised people from the dead! How could Jesus perform all those miraculous acts? Jesus had received that power from his Heavenly Father, from God the Almighty Creator! — John 11:38-48, 12:9-11, 5:27, Matthew 28:18.

“Jesus approached and spoke to them, saying: “All authority has been given me in heaven and on the earth.” — Matthew 28:18.


Another interesting point to consider is that, before Jesus was hung on the torture stake and died, he had already predicted that he would be crucified and that he would be alive again three days later.
When he was indeed hung on the torture stake, he died and was truly dead for three days. Throughout the billions (at least 13.8 billion years) that Jesus has lived and still lives, he has been dead for a total of three days. And as he had predicted, on the third day, he would come back to life! — John 2:19-21, Matthew 12:39-40, 16:21, 17:22-23, 20:18-19.

How could Jesus have come back to life when he was dead? Jesus himself had brought several people back to life. The Bible mentions eight individuals who were raised from the dead during Jesus’ time on earth. But could it have been Jesus himself who raised himself from the dead?

“From that time forward, Jesus began explaining to his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes and be killed, and on the third day be raised up.” — Matthew 16:21.


Death is compared to sleep.
Jesus likened death to sleeping. Just as people are unaware of anything at night during deep sleep and have no active thoughts, so it is with those who have died. — John 11:11, Matthew 9:24, Luke 7:11-15.

People in deep sleep cannot think, for instance, “Say, shall I make a cup of coffee in a moment because I have to wake up soon,” because they are not aware of anything. They are temporarily turned “off”, as it were. Just as a computer that is turned off cannot run a program, a person cannot think during deep sleep either.
Jesus himself, during his death, could not think, “Would it be three days already? Because I foretold people that I would come back to life on the third day.” Jesus was therefore just like other people who died, no longer present other than in God’s memorial grave (Sheol, Hell, Hades).
So Jesus could not make himself alive because he was dead during his three days of being dead. Who then brought Jesus Christ back to life when Jesus was dead for three days? God himself, Jesus’ Heavenly Father, woke him from the dead! — Ephesians 1:20-21.

“which he exercised toward Christ when he raised him up from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places, far above every government and authority and power and lordship and every name that is named, not only in this system of things but also in that to come.” — Ephesians 1:20-21.


That’s something we on earth do not usually experience. The fact that Jesus was dead for three days and then was brought back to life demonstrates something fundamental: namely, that God, who raised Jesus from the dead, indeed exists!

And the fact that Jesus could raise people from the dead and perform other miracles is only because his Heavenly Father, the only True God, granted him that power. Could Jesus perform those miracles if God did not exist? Could Jesus’ apostles, especially John, have discovered all that fascinating and essential information (such as what is written in the book of Revelation) if the God who provided it did not exist? — Matthew 28:18.

Some scientists today mistakenly believe that one can be either a scientist or a believer in God. While scientists struggle to answer the question “what is the origin of the universe”, because they ignore the very thing they seek—namely, God! In fact, science and belief in God are not contradictory. God’s Word, the Bible, does not contradict science, but some scientists do.

The origin of the universe, at the beginning of this text, which some branches of science are eagerly investigating, is revealed in God’s Word, the Bible. — Genesis 1:1, 1:14-19, Psalm 19:1, Isaiah 45:18.


“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” — Genesis 1:1.

“Thus God put them in the expanse of the heavens to shine upon the earth” — Genesis 1:17.

“The heavens are declaring the glory of God;
 The skies above proclaim the work of his hands.” — Psalm 19:1.

“For this is what Jehovah says,
 The Creator of the heavens, the True God,
 The One who formed the earth, its Maker who firmly established it,
 Who did not create it simply for nothing, but formed it to be inhabited:
“I am Jehovah, and there is no one else.” — Isaiah 45:18.


Is there any reason left for anyone to believe that Jehovah God does not exist, or that Jesus Christ does not exist?
