False Religion's End is Near

False Religion's End is Near .... bro Reno from Amery
does it offend our sense of justice with all the crime and wars that happen in the name of false religion?
Mal 3:18... you will again see the distinction between one serving God and one not serving God....
If there is an organization or individual that is giving you false information leading to no good, then it needs to be disposed of.
Matt 24:21... there will be great tribulation... unlike anything...
Rev 17:1 & 2... come, I will show you the judgement of the great prostitute... with whom the kings of the earth committed immorality...
& 16.. these will hate the prostitute...will eat her up and destroy her with fire....for God put it into their hearts...
So God is putting in their hearts to destroy false religion.
The conflicts in Africa are religiously based and they can't bring the conflicts to an end.
Ps 83:18... that people may know that you who's name is Jehovah, You alone are the most high over all the earth.
so Jehovah's sovereignty shows he is the most high.
Luke 17:6... I have made your name manifest...
manifest means to give attention... to slap someone in the face to get their attention
How to identify true religion
First
to be considered true religion, should be giving God's name, primary attention.
next
... you must pray then this way, our father in the heaven, let your name be sactified... let your kingdom come...
so true religion has to be concerned about God's kingdom.
next
John 17:3 all will know if you are my disciples if you have love among yourselves...
no matter where we are in the world, we love to meet our brothers and sisters because we have love among ourselves
John 18:36...my Kingdom is no part of this world..
members of true religion, would not be a part of the world's governments or false religion..
no patriotism.
next
1 Cor 1:10 ...speak in agreement and no divisions among you...
so no matter what part of the world we are in, we are all united in the same line of thought.
next morally clean
1 Cor 6:9-11... unrighteous people will not inherit God's Kingdom....
staying in line with God's high moral standards
when you look at religions of the world, do they have these requirements? in order to be acceptable by God they must match up to God's standards.
most religions have removed God's name from the Bible
the worldwide love and unity in supporting God's Kingdom
Using God's Word for direction and guidance in our daily lives.
Upholding God's high moral standards
The fact is, the world's religions have failed to a large degree.
but what about Jehovah's Witnesses measure up? review the facts.
the official stand of Jehovah's Witnesses, Jehovah is the creator of the universe and the rightful sovereign of it.
our Kingdom Halls are not churches, but they are the central hub in supporting the preaching work.
Jehovah's Witnesses strive to look for guidance in our lives to remain morally clean and acceptable to Jehovah.
distinction has to be made from false religion. each one of us has to make the decision as to if we are to be part of the world or part of God's own Kingdom. It is time to examine ourselves if we are to make the truth our own.

Will You Make Sacrifices For The Kingdom?
2 Cor 9:7
God loves a cheerful giver
How does each of the scriptures help you to evaluate the sacrifices you make for the Kingdom?
1 Chronicles 29:9...the people rejoiced...they gave to Jehovah with a complete heart...
When we do the very best we can, no matter how limited we may be, our clean conscience and satisfaction of knowing we did our best, adds to our joy, because Jehovah understands our limitations and loves us for doing all we can.
1 Corinthians 16:1 & 2... follow the directions... set aside according to your own means...
carefully examine ourselves and what we can give and ways we can extend ourselves. some can give in some ways and others in other ways. but it is all giving a share.
2 Corinthians 8:12.... if the readiness is there first, it is especially acceptable according to what a person has, not according to what a person does not have...
limitations effect everyone is different ways, Jehovah does't condemn us for what we can't do but loves us for what we can do.
does it offend our sense of justice with all the crime and wars that happen in the name of false religion?
