Celebrities in the New System


Recommended Posts

How will former celebrities and those previously holding high position in the old system react and feel when they don't get the same reaction from people in the New World? 

 

I recently read a book about a former royal and his life after leaving his country. He said that he wasn't allowed to be familiar with his own grandmother because she was the queen, and how that position changed the family dynamics. That makes me wonder about their personal reactions when no one treats them with the same deference as before. 

 

Respect, kindness and compassion, yes. But not the same deference due only to position. 

 

I think this might apply to all former celebrities as well. Lives changed in a million ways.

I don't think the environment or environmental cues that makes those reactions exist will be existing or functional. The environment and system of things will belong to Jehovah's way and not humans influenced by Satan and his world. 

It's like if you're born in a land where water is scarce or non-existent, like in the desert regions, you don't seek water but make do with others are doing. And the others in the new world will be influenced by Jesus and the 144k. That, I think, is the difference. 

For Jehovah is aware of the way of the righteous, But the way of the wicked will perish (Psalm 1:6).
