without any military conflicts,
where there's no strife,

anr 05.05.15 в 20:18

no diseases, no old age,
no deaths. I'm talking about

anr 05.05.15 в 20:18

eternal life.
– In the original plan,

anr 05.05.15 в 20:19

people didn't die.
They would live

anr 05.05.15 в 20:19

forever. Man is created
in such a way that he is capable of

anr 05.05.15 в 20:19

learning a lot. He has
such abilities.

anr 05.05.15 в 20:20

He is interested in learning,
and this process

anr 05.05.15 в 20:20

is infinite. It is only due
to a certain reason that we

anr 05.05.15 в 20:20

started dying. But Jehovah the God
will correct everything very soon.

anr 05.05.15 в 20:21

– Could you please answer
this question. I may be repeating myself:

anr 05.05.15 в 20:22

"What steps can each person take
at the individual level so that the situation

anr 05.05.15 в 20:22

in the society improved?
– To recognise God's governance.

anr 05.05.15 в 20:23

– At the very beginning we spoke

anr 05.05.15 в 20:23

about spirituality, a lack of
spirituality. Spirituality comes from

anr 05.05.15 в 20:24

knowledge. It does not
appear out of the blue.

anr 05.05.15 в 20:24

– So people are lacking knowledge
in order to move forward.

anr 05.05.15 в 20:24

For example, in Isaiah 11:9
or, for example, in John 17:3,

anr 06.05.15 в 10:45

Jesus asks: "What is
eternal life?"

anr 06.05.15 в 10:46

Eternal life is knowing you
as the only God and Jesus Christ

anr 06.05.15 в 10:46

who was sent by you.

anr 06.05.15 в 10:47

Jesus draws attention
to knowledge.

anr 06.05.15 в 10:47

The Greek verb "gnosis"
is used there, meaning

anr 06.05.15 в 10:47

precise knowledge. That is,
I must know exactly who

anr 06.05.15 в 10:48

God is, I must know precisely
who Jesus Christ is.

anr 06.05.15 в 10:49

Only on this knowledge
will faith depend and the rest

anr 06.05.15 в 10:51

what drives me.
If my knowledge is obscure and

anr 06.05.15 в 10:51

based on some traditions,

anr 06.05.15 в 10:51

this knowledge won't do
me any good. The prophet Isaiah

anr 06.05.15 в 10:56

highlighted this thought in an
interesting way in 11:9,

anr 06.05.15 в 10:57

where he says. The situation is this:
everything will change

anr 06.05.15 в 11:03

on earth, that's how it will be.
"They shall not hurt nor destroy

anr 06.05.15 в 11:03

in all my holy mountain..."

anr 06.05.15 в 11:03

that is, on the whole Earth,
"for the earth shall be full

anr 06.05.15 в 11:04

of the knowledge of Jehovah,
as the waters cover the sea."

anr 06.05.15 в 11:05

Why there will be no conflicts?
It says here why people

anr 06.05.15 в 11:07

will leave in peace. Because
there will be knowledge,

anr 06.05.15 в 11:07

which will guide us.
– So am I to understand that

anr 06.05.15 в 11:08

people should learn
and educate themselves, and

anr 06.05.15 в 11:08

the fact that he will be able to bring
this knowledge into the world, this, too

anr 06.05.15 в 11:09

can help make the world better,

anr 06.05.15 в 11:09

and interest other people
in spirituality?

anr 06.05.15 в 11:09

– This is what Jehovah's Witnesses
have been doing for

anr 06.05.15 в 11:10

all modern history. Maybe even

anr 06.05.15 в 11:10

since the times of Jesus Christ.
Receiving knowledge from the Bible,

anr 06.05.15 в 11:11

the holy scripture,
we practice this knowledge

anr 06.05.15 в 11:11

in our lives and only then
do we go and tell people

anr 06.05.15 в 11:26

about this. Because if we
receive knowledge and don't practice it,

anr 06.05.15 в 11:27

that is, we don't see any
good from this knowledge

anr 06.05.15 в 11:27

in our lives, our preaching then
loses its relevance.

anr 06.05.15 в 11:28

In this case, people simply
won't believe it. And if you live

anr 06.05.15 в 11:29
