KINGDOM PUBLISHERS - Engaging in Public Witnessing.....

 KINGDOM PUBLISHERS
... Engaging in Public Witnessing.

• Increased emphasis is now being placed on public witnessing: at bus stops, train stations, parking lots, in public squares, and markets.

Go, therefore, and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit, teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded you.
And look! I am with you all the days until the conclusion of the system of things.”*
. . . .Matthew 28:19, 20.

• Each day, (a number) of people visit our website.

As the radio did in the past, our website today is reaching people with the good news, even in remote areas.

- - - THE COMMISSION TO PREACH THE GOOD NEWS - - -

After giving the commission to preach, Jesus promised his followers:
“I am with you.”
(Matthew 28:20)

So this vast preaching work would be carried out under his direction.
And our God has equipped us with “every good thing” to help us fulfill that commission.
(Hebrew 13:20, 21)

I. THE KING EQUIPS HIS SERVANTS TO PREACH
Jesus compared “the word of the Kingdom” to seed that is sown on various types of soil.
(Matthew 13:18, 19)

II. USING EVERY POSSIBLE METHOD TO REACH PEOPLE
Under the King’s direction, God’s people have used a variety of methods in order to reach as many as possible with the good news. This was especially important when ‘the workers were few.’
(Read Matthew 9:37.)

III. TRAINING MINISTERS OF THE GOOD NEWS
Publishers needed to know how to overcome objections tactfully and how to teach honesthearted ones skillfully.
Doubtless moved by God’s spirit, Nathan H. Knorr saw the need to train publishers to use the gift of speech in the ministry.
The solution?
The Theocratic Ministry School, which was first organized in congregations in 1943.
That school has helped us to become effective teachers.
Charles Taze Russell ...
showed remarkable foresight regarding the extent to which the preaching work would be accomplished.
He told a close associate:
“The work is increasing rapidly, and it will continue to increase, for there is a world-wide work to be done in preaching the ‘gospel of the kingdom.’”
(Faith on the March, by A. H. Macmillan, p. 69)

How right he was!

And how grateful we are that the God of peace continues to equip us for this most enjoyable work!

Indeed, he gives us “every good thing” we need to do his will!

Engaging in a new feature of the work, perhaps one outside our comfort zone, helps us to build trust and faith in Jehovah, leading to greater spirituality.
—Read 2 Corinthians 12:9, 10. ---
