Luz misma ha relumbrado para el justo (Sal. 97:11).
Aunque la mayoría de las religiones de la cristiandad rechazan la esperanza de la vida eterna en la Tierra, Satanás no ha logrado mantener oculta la verdad. A lo largo de los siglos, algunos lectores concienzudos de la Biblia vieron destellos de luz, pues entendieron hasta cierto grado lo que Dios hará para que la humanidad recobre la perfección (Mat. 7:13, 14; 13:37-39). En el siglo XVII, la impresión de la Biblia y su traducción a diversos idiomas pusieron las Escrituras al alcance de muchas más personas. En 1651, un erudito escribió: “Si con Adán todos mueren, y han perdido el paraíso y la vida eterna en la tierra, con Cristo [...] todos los hombres habrán de vivir también en la tierra, ya que de otro modo la comparación no sería correcta” (1 Cor. 15:21, 22). Además, uno de los poetas de habla inglesa más importantes, John Milton (1608-1674), habló en sus obras El Paraíso perdido y El Paraíso recobrado sobre la recompensa que los seres humanos fieles recibirán en un paraíso terrestre.

Light itself has flashed up for the righteous one.—Ps. 97:11.
Although most religions that claim to be Christian deny the hope of everlasting life on earth, Satan did not always succeed in obscuring the truth. Down through the ages, a few careful Bible readers saw flashes of truth as they understood some aspects of how God will restore mankind to perfection. (Matt. 7:13, 14; 13:37-39) By the 1600’s, Bible translation and printing had made the Holy Scriptures more widely available. In 1651, one scholar wrote that since through Adam men “have forfeited Paradise, and Eternall Life on Earth,” so in the Christ “all men shall be made to live on Earth; for else the comparison were not proper.” (1 Cor. 15:21, 22) One of the English-speaking world’s famous poets, John Milton (1608-1674), wrote Paradise Lost and its sequel Paradise Regained. In his works, Milton referred to the reward that the faithful will receive in an earthly paradise.
Examining the Bible Scriptures Daily, Such instructions gave Jesus ‘the tongue of the taught ones’ so that he would ‘know how to answer the tired one with a word.’ (Isa. 30:20; 50:4; Matt. 11:28-30) Being awakened to timely counsel from the Word of God each morning will not only help you to cope with your own problems but also equip you with ‘the tongue of the taught ones’ to help others.”
