how to establish happy bornes and
stable marriages. Humans will find
opportunit ies to fully develop tal–
ents and abilities.
Women will rejoice in being
homemakers, mothers and teachers
of their children. Both parents wi ll
enjoy taki ng responsibility for
teaching their children a great deal
of their primary education. Chi l–
dren will be wanted and cher ished .
They will be needed to rebuild and
beautify the earth.
God wi ll heal the sick, blind,
maimed and me ntally damaged .
"Then the eyes of the blind shall be
opened [by God's healing power],
and the ears of the deaf shall be
unstopped . Then shall the lame
man leap as an hart, and the tongue
of the dumb sing ..." (Isa. 35:5-6).
No more mill ions of nonproductive
hopeless lives or incu rable dis–
eases.
Everyone will know what it
means to experience love from
others. All will be taught to respect
all other humans-regardless of
race- for their incredible human
potential. Every nation will be g iv–
en its own land to develop the spe–
cial talents and abili t ies God has
given to each.
What a different world! At last,
mi ll ions will experience the fulfill–
ment of Christ's promise, " 1 am
come that they might have life, and
that they might have it more abun–
dantly" (John 10:10) .
Gradually Spreading Mirac le
Don't misunderstand. God's gov–
ernment and blessings won' t hap–
pen in all nations all at once.
It
will
take time. Nations will have many
wrong ways to change, many wrong
ideas to unlearn and overcome.
God will first give a nation the
chance to accept or refuse his ways.
The consequences for repeated
refusal to obey are indicated in
Zech. 14:1 6-19 .
Christ said the kingdom, or gov–
ernment, of God would be like
leaven in a lump of dough (Matt.
13:33). It would gradual ly spread
throughou t the whole earth. God
expects those who have learned and
prospered from God's ways to
38
teach and help others less fortu–
nate. Prosperous and successful
individuals will not devote their
whole lives to accumulating more
and more weal th for themselves.
Wealth and abundance are not
wrong. God wants all to prosper
and be in health ( IIl J ohn 2). But
under God's wonderful government
a person's success a nd character
will not be measured by the abun–
dance of what he possesses. Success
and character will be more mea–
sured in how a person helps, shares
and serves others.
Education, at last, will be univer–
sal. There will be a universal lan–
guage to understand God and bis
ways (Zeph. 3:9). No more will
religious, politica l a nd economic
confusion and strife be permitted to
divide nations and lead humans into
bate, animosity and war.
" ... for the earth shall be full of
the knowledge of the Lord, as the
waters cover the sea" (lsa. 11 :9).
God speed that happy age!
That 's good news really worth
announcing to the world- and pre–
paring one's self to take part in–
today!

And now, Tsaiah 66:24: "And
they shall go forth, and look upon
the careases of the men that have
transgressed agains t me: for their
worm shall not die, neither shall
their fire be quenched; and they
shall be an abhorr ing unto a ll

Never to Be Quenc hed?
"Nei ther s h a ll their f i re be
QUENCHED." Does that mean
burning forever and never burning
up? Try this test: Put a piece of
paper in a pan . Light it with a
match. Now,
don't
QUENCH that
fire! Don't put it out- for that's
what "quench" means. Yery soon
the paper will
burn up.
Then put
it down on the floor and step on

the sole of your feet- precisely as
