Domingo 16 de octubre
[La] voluntad [de Dios] es que hombres de toda clase se salven y lleguen a un conocimiento exacto de la verdad (1 Tim. 2:4).
Nosotros participamos en una campaña para liberar a la gente de las mentiras religiosas y de la idolatría. Un medio que utilizamos para llegar a todo tipo de personas es la predicación de casa en casa. Veamos un ejemplo. Una joven de cierto país asiático recuerda que su madre tenía muchas imágenes y que solía hacer rituales frente a ellas. Pero la muchacha pensaba que no todas esas imágenes podían representar al Dios verdadero, por lo que oraba pidiéndole a Dios que la ayudara a conocerlo. Un día llegaron a su casa dos Testigos. Ellas le enseñaron que el nombre del Dios verdadero es Jehová y que él no aprueba el uso de imágenes. ¡Qué feliz se sintió la joven cuando aprendió todo aquello! Ahora ella también predica con celo y brinda ayuda espiritual a otras personas (Sal. 83:18; 115:4-8; 1 Juan 5:21).
Sunday, October 16
[God’s] will is that all sorts of men should be saved and come to an accurate knowledge of truth.—1 Tim. 2:4.
We engage in a campaign to help people break free from false religious teachings, including the practice of idolatry. Our house-to-house ministry enables us to meet all sorts of people. One young Asian girl remembers how her mother performed rituals in front of numerous images in their home. Reasoning that not all the images could represent the true God, the girl often prayed that she could get to know his real identity. When she answered a knock on the door of her house, she found two Witnesses who were ready to help her learn the true God’s distinctive name, Jehovah. And how grateful she was to learn the truth about idols! Now she demonstrates commendable zeal by sharing diligently in field service, helping other people spiritually.—Ps. 83:18; 115:4-8; 1 John 5:21.
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.”
