“And all thy children shall be taught of Jehovah; and 
great shall be the peace of thy children.” ~ Isaiah 54:13. 
THE SCRIPTURES CLEARLY TEACH 
THAT JEHOVAH is the only true God, is from everlasting to 
everlasting, the Maker of heaven and earth and the Giver of life 
to his creatures; that the Logos was the beginning of his creation, 
and his active agent in the creation of all things; that the Logos 
is now the Lord Jesus Christ in glory, clothed with all power in 
heaven and earth, and the Chief Executive Officer of Jehovah. 
THAT GOD created the earth for man, created perfect man 
for the earth and placed him upon it; that man willfully dis- 
obeyed God’s law and was sentenced to death; that by reason of 
Adam’s wrong act all men are born sinners and without the right 
to Hfe. 
THAT JESUS was made human, and the man Jesus suffered 
death in order to produce the ransom or redemptive price for 
obedient ones of mankind; that God raised up Jesus divine and 
exalted him to heaven above every creature and above every name 
and clothed him with all power and authority. 
THAT JEHOVAH’S ORGANIZATION is a Theocracy called Zion, 
and that Christ Jesus is the Chief Officer thereof and is the right- 
ful King of the world; that the anointed and faithful followers of 
Christ Jesus are children of Zion, members of Jehovah's organiza- 
tion, and are his witnesses whose duty and privilege it is to testify 
to the supremacy of Jehovah, declare his purposes toward mankind 
as expressed in the Bible, and to bear the fruits of the kingdom 
before all who will hear. 
THAT THE WORLD has ended, and the Lord Jesus Christ has 
been placed by Jehovah upon his throne of authority, has ousted 
Satan from heaven and is proceeding to the establishment of 
God’s kingdom on earth. 
THAT THE RELIEF and blessings of the peoples of earth can 
come only by and through Jehovah's kingdom under Christ, which 
has now begun; that the Lord’s next great act is the destruction 
of Satan’s organization and the establishment of righteousness in 
the earth, and that under the kingdom the people of good will that 
survive Armageddon shall carry out the divine mandate to “fill 
the earth” with a righteous race.

“NEW EARTH” TESTIMONY PERIOD 
June is thus designated, and the activities outlined for the 
month are related to the work now proceeding of laying the foun- 
dation of the new earth. Jonadabs as well as the anointed king- 
dom publishers will rejoice to have part therein. An attractive 
special offer should make June outstanding for the placement of 
booklets, to wit, seven booklets on a contribution of but 25c, three 
being self-covered and four being colored-cover booklets. People 
unable to take the combination will be offered the new booklet 
Fascism or Freedom on any contribution they can afford. This 
applies to foreign-language booklets also. Fuller details are to 
be found in the Informant. Your part now is to prepare and equip 
yourself for an active share in this testimony period. A good 
report for the month is expected from you. 
IMPOSTORS 
Persons going about the country, and claiming to be in the 
truth and Jehovah’s witnesses, present themselves at different 
places and collect money and get other favors of the brethren. 
We warn the brethren everywhere to have nothing to do with 
these impostors. 
CONVENTION 
At New York City, June 23-25, a convention of Jehovah's 
witnesses will be held. Thousands desire to attend who are too 
far away, and for their convenience arrangements are being made 
to connect Los Angeles, Chicago and some other cities in the 
United States, and London, Glasgow and other citics in England, 
by wire direct from Madison Square Garden in New York City. 
The president of the Society will address the convention on Sat- 
urday the 24th, from 3: 00 to 4: 00 p.m., and on Sunday, June 25, 
will address the public, 4: 00 to 5:00 p.m., New York time. Other 
cities desiring to be tied in to this convention should notify the 
Brooklyn office immediately. More details later.
