Tuesday, April 15

Death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore.—Rev. 21:4.

 

Many of us use this heartwarming Bible passage about life in Paradise when preaching to others. How can we assure others—and ourselves—that the blessings described at Revelation 21:3, 4 will come true? Jehovah not only made this heartwarming promise but also provided convincing reasons why we can put our trust in it. We find reasons to trust in Jehovah’s promise of Paradise in the verses that follow. There we read: “The One seated on the throne said: ‘Look! I am making all things new.’ Also he says: ‘Write, for these words are faithful and true.’ And he said to me: ‘They have come to pass! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end.’”—Rev. 21:5, 6a. w23.11 3 ¶3-5

Today's calendar date (April 15 is Tax Day in the US) and the daily text reminded me of the saying, "Nothing is certain except death and taxes."

 

I chuckled because that is not the case for those who love Jehovah. That saying will no longer be valid in the new system, because we are certain that death AND taxes will be no more. 😀
