Thursday, November 3

He ordered us to preach to the people and to give a thorough witness.—Acts 10:42.

 

Jesus views what we do for his anointed brothers as if we were doing it for him. (Matt. 25:34-40) The primary way that we support the anointed is by sharing fully in the disciple-making work that Jesus directed his followers to carry out. (Matt. 28:19, 20) Only with the help of the “other sheep” can Christ’s brothers accomplish the great worldwide preaching campaign now taking place. (John 10:16) If you are of the other sheep, each time you share in this work, you show your loving attachment not only to the anointed but also to Jesus. We also make friends with Jehovah and Jesus by using our financial resources to support the work that they are directing. (Luke 16:9) For example, we can contribute toward the worldwide work, which includes providing material relief for those who have suffered loss. We can also support our own congregation financially and help those whom we personally know to be in need.—Prov. 19:17. w20.0424 ¶12-13
