Jesus started his ministration after baptism with preaching the nearness of the kingdom of God. It was also his last commandment and request to his disciples.
Surprisingly many of us including me thought this message is no longer much important since the gospel has reached almost all parts of the world. Till it was brought to my attention through the teachings of the brethren that this message is still very much important and is meant to continue until the arrival of our Lord.

I bring you this message of hope today and beseech you to heed to it. Repent and seek ye first the kingdom of God and it's righteousness and every other thing shall be added unto you. Yearn for holiness, live a life of righteousness and evangelize the gospel to even one soul. There is joy in heaven when even one soul is won to the kingdom of God.

What is the Kingdom of God?

What is the Kingdom of God?

Matthew 25:34. The kingdom of God in my own understanding of the scripture is any kingdom that God the father, the son and holy spirit rules. Heaven is also a kingdom of God. Jesus promises his disciples paradise, a kingdom ruled by him with no lack, no impurity, darkness nor anything bad.
Some denominations of Christianity proposes that Jesus will takeover the leadership of earth from the devil in his second coming and turn earth to paradise.

You can enlighten me if I am wrong or not completely correct.

The highlighted correlates with what is found written in the Bible book of Isaiah 9:6-7; Daniel 2:44

Though most religionists often think earth can't be the place where eternity could be possible due to the experience we've had over the countless centuries but you may be amazed at what the Bible said on the matter.

Psalms 37:9-11, 29; 67:6-7
Proverbs 2:20-22

God's original purpose for planet earth will be fulfilled under Christ's rulership, He created humans to enjoy life forever on this planet {Genesis 1:26-28 compare to Ecclesiastes 3:11} and nothing can erase what He purposed! Isaiah 55:10-11

When Jesus came to the earth his mission was to establish a movement that will help in the gathering of imperfect but faithful and obedient humans {Matthew 28:19-20 compare to Act 1:8} who will make up the inhabitants of planet earth when all evildoers are removed from the planet! Matthew 5:5

With this global family of peace loving people the stage is set for the cleansing of the earth by exterminating rebellious humans {Luke 19:27} so the inheritants of the earth may live happily in peace and security! Isaiah 11:9

Is there any secret you don't want others to be aware of?
The reason why we meet to discuss here is help one another and other followers who are shy to learn from our discussion.
Please feel free to ask whatever question you have in mind but if you want to meet me in person then welcome a free home Bible study with Jehovah's Witnesses, i'm assuring you that anything you here from me on this forum is the same you will here from Jehovah's Witnesses throughout the world! John 17:22; 1Corinthians 1:10; Ephesians 4:3

May you have PEACE!

What I wanted to discuss with you is not secret, but I would have preferred a private discussion. I recently started engaging in street evangelism, I wouldn't rate my current performance so high, practice makes perfect. Although Jesus said we aren't necessarily to force anyone to accept God or the word of God. Matthew 10:14. Our part is to pass on the message.

However I think I will improve faster with a companion, especially an experienced one. My question is will Jehovah witnesses allow a believer go on evangelism with them, if the person is not a member of JW?
I might get a partner from my church branch or in my area, but most aren't eager so I have been getting postponements from them.

Well what you're asking is totally impossible no member of Jehovah's Witnesses throughout the earth will join you or allow you to work with him or her if you're not one of us we have our reasons but i will like to tell you the reason why you can't find dedicated ones who are willing like you in any other religion apart from Jehovah's Witnesses.
Would you like to know why?

I don't have PRIVATE conversation with strangers but i know a JW on this forum who often gives people like you the opportunity of having private chat with him.
Will you like to meet him?

My church and some other churches do engage in evangelism, it is just not as frequent as that of JW. Jesus didn't specify or command how often evangelism embarkment should be. In fact I am of the opinion that evangelism should not be done as a routine but as the holy spirit directs.

I am not saying it is wrong of JW to embark on evangelism everyday or every weekend, but that, that doesn't necessarily make them the dedicated ones or the best church. I am not saying they are not, I am not saying they are either, but that frequency of evangelism is not the yardstick for judging righteousness or obedience to God.

There is no perfect yardstick for judging righteousness, judgment is of the Lord. It is all about grace from God, his kingdom and his people.
