Jehovah’sWitnesses
Jehovah’s Witnesses around the world launched an unprecedented campaign to distribute a special issue of The Watchtower magazine to local residents, businesses and government officials inNovember 2020.
The magazine, with the cover title “What Is God’s Kingdom?” was offered free of charge in over 300 languages.
Untold billions have petitioned God, “Thy kingdomCome,” when reciting what has become known the world over as the Lord’s or the Our Father prayer. (Matthew 6:10 KJV) Jesus taught his disciples that model prayer nearly two thousand years ago. The special issue the Witnesses distributed in November generously quoted from the Bible to unequivocally identify the kingdom, or government, that Jesuswas referring to.
Because of COVID-19, the Witnesses’ campaign proceeded using methods in accordance with local health protocols. This included distributing the magazine and contacting people via electronic means.
Anelectronic copy of this special issue is available on the official website of Jehovah’sWitnesses, jw.org.
There are over 8.6 million Jehovah’s Witnesses who actively promote Bible education worldwide in 240 lands. This Christian denomination includes persons from all ethnic and cultural backgrounds, including 1.3 million Jehovah’s Witnesses in theUnited States. Their officialwebsite, jw.org, has information available in over 1,020 languages. SEAN BARTON Linthicum
