The Watchtower & Bible Tract Society published a book entitled "The Greatest Man Who Ever Lived." (picture shown above)
It was to narrate Jesus earthly life for 3 1/2 years.
As expected, my tears were uncontrollably flowing when I came to chapter 113 onwards.
Jesus Christ suffered terribly for sinful humans to be saved.
As Pontius Pilate noticed, Jesus was so dignified even in the face of death.
Israelites where angrily shouting at him, tortured him to the extreme way possible.
They even chose to release Barnabas, a serial murderer, than to free Jesus.
And Jesus Christ was on the stage, seeing how the people he was trying to save, were all shouting loudly at him to be killed.
Tsk tsk tsk.. I wonder how he felt during that time.
Does his love never waivered? Did he ever felt angry at them?
Imagine those are the people he was trying to save and yet they conspired and did everything for him to be impaled.
Shucks. That was really a great show of love firstly for his Father, Jehovah and for humankind.
I could never imagine and will never fully understand how Jesus and Jehovah suffered for the imperfect humans to be saved.
They really showcased an outstanding example of LOVE.
I was really touched on how Jesus talked to His father.
He always says in his prayer: "As you will, Father.."
No matter what he needs to sacrifice from his part, no matter what he will suffer.
All that is important for him is for the will of his Father to take place.
He completely trust his life to his loving Father who is in heaven.
When he finally breathed his last breath, the heavens became dark and there was a strong earthquake.
Jehovah was really sad seeing his only begotten son, suffered and tortured by mortal humans.
Could you imagine? The two (2) most powerful persona in the whole universe, allow themselves to suffer for us sinful and weak humans to be saved?
How great is that?
You know, that book is really a good book to read and ponder.
That's actually one of the many publications of the Watchtower & Bible Tract Society which could aid us in understanding the BIble and thus help us know the truth and become closer to God.
My next book to read is 2009 Yearbook of Jehovah's Witnesses.
It contains a year-end report of how their preaching work is continuously progressing in every part of the world.
If you are a non-JW reading this entry, please do take the opportunity to learn the truth about God.
Jehovah's Witnesses will not be forever knocking on your doors to help you understand what the Bible really teach.
God has His own timetable on things.
So while it is still possible and while God still allows it, come to know the truth about what's really happening in the world and about the future.
Soon, Jehovah God will finally put an end to Satan's system of things, including those who fail to listen and do His will.
Listen and heed on what God wants us to do before it's too late.
Jehovah's Witnesses are everywhere.
You could always ask us about the Bible and we will all be glad to help you answer your questions about God, life and future.

P.S. We will soon be celebrating the Memorial of Jesus death on April 9. Hope you could find the nearest Kingdom Hall in your area. For it the only ocassion which Jesus asked his disciples to observe and remember. This is the most important event in a year for a Jehovah's Witness. Remembering how Jesus offered his own life as a ransom sacrifice for us all. So if you could attend, we're inviting you to visit the nearest Kingdom Hall.
