She WATCHTOWER. PustisHep Semt-Moytsty By WATCH TOWER BIBLE © TRACT SOCIETY 117 Adams Street ~ Brooklyn, N. Y., U.S.A, OFFICERS J. FE. Roruerrorp President W.E. Van Anrsurce Secretary “And all thy children shall be taught of Jehovah; and great shall be the peace of thy children.”’~ Isaiah 54:73. 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 wus the beginning of his creation and his active agent in the ereation of all things; that the Logos is now the Lord Jesus Christ in glory, elothed with all power in heaven and earth, and the Chief Executive Officer of Jehovah. THAT GOD created the carth for man, crented perfect mau for the earth and placed him upon it; that man wilfully disobeyed 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 life. THAT JESUS was made human, and the man Jesus saf- fered death in order to produce the ransom or redemptive price for all mankind; that God raised up Jesus divine and exalted him to heaven above every creature and above every namo and cluthed him with all power and authority. THAT JEHOVAH'S ORGANIZATION is called Zion, and that Christ Jesus is, the Chief Officer thereof and is tho rightful King of the world; that the anointed and faithful followers of Christ Jesus ara children of Zion, membera of Jchovah’s organization, and are his witnesses whose duty and privilege it is to testify to the supremacy of Jehovah, declaro is purposes toward mankind ag 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 Jehovuh 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 ean come only by and through Jehovah’s kingdom under Christ which has now beeun; that the Lord’s next great act is tho destruction of Satan’s organization and the estab- lishment of righteousness in the earth, and that under the kingdom all those who will obey its righteous laws shall be restored and live on earth forever, TRANSCRIPTION MACHINES The Society has made arrangements to construct and assemble portable transcription machines at our own factory at 117 Adams Street, These machioes will be somewhat different in construction from those previously furnished. They will be spring-wound, and operated from a 6-yolt wet-cell battery. Every machine will be furnished complete with the battery and a battery charger, so that it can be kept up to its full strength. We are pleased to announce that this machine can be offered at $100, complete, to brethren in the United States, ADVERTISING WATCHTOWER PROGRAMS Advertising the Kingdom helps also to advertise the radio stations which are broadcasting the kingdom message, Hence all witnessing parties and all individuals enzaging in the ficid service should mention the radio station in their vicinity which carries the Watchtower progiams. This magnifies to the people called upon the message which Jchovah’s witnesses introduce, and often results in interest in the printed message on the part of the radio listener. This is one of the chief purposes of sending out the message over the radio, to encourage the people to read the literature. In this behalf the Society sup- plies radio folders, and all workers should make constaat nse of then in house-to-house calling, leaving one of them, if noth- ing else, ITS MISSION HIS journal is published for the purpose of enabling the people to know Jehovah God and his purposes as expressed in the Bible.
