Death will be no more.—Rev. 21:4.

 

What assurances can we share with those who doubt that God’s promise of Paradise will come true? First, Jehovah himself makes the promise. The book of Revelation states: “The One seated on the throne said: ‘Look! I am making all things new.’” He has the wisdom, the power, and the desire to make his promise come true. Second, the fulfillment of his promise is so certain that from Jehovah’s viewpoint, it has already happened. He rightly says: “These words are faithful and true. . . . They have come to pass!” Third, when Jehovah starts something, he brings it to its successful conclusion, as confirmed by the expression: “I am the Alpha and the Omega.” (Rev. 21:6) Jehovah will prove that Satan is a liar and a failure. So when someone says, “This sounds too good to be true,” read and explain Revelation 21:5, 6. Show how Jehovah has guaranteed his promise by signing it, as it were, with his own signature.—Isa. 65:16. w23.11 7 ¶18-19
