Tanto si vivimos, vivimos para Jehová, como si morimos, morimos para Jehová (Rom. 14:8).
Al igual que aumenta nuestra confianza en un médico cuando conocemos su historial, cuando aprendemos más detalles sobre Jehová crece nuestra fe. Así pues, una razón para estudiar a fondo la Biblia es que nos ayudará a conocer y amar más a Dios, lo que a su vez disipará cualquier miedo a ser posesión suya (1 Juan 4:18). Jehová nos concede a todos libertad de elección. Por eso, en su Palabra nos dice a cada uno de nosotros: “Tienes que escoger la vida a fin de que te mantengas vivo, tú y tu prole, amando a Jehová tu Dios” (Deu. 30:19, 20). Él desea que decidamos libremente servirle y así le demostremos nuestro amor. De modo que al pertenecer a nuestro querido Dios no solo no perdemos libertad, sino que ganamos una satisfacción que nunca tendrá fin. Al ser pecadores, no somos dignos de ser propiedad de Dios, quien es perfecto. Conseguimos pertenecer a él únicamente gracias a su bondad inmerecida (2 Tim. 1:9).

Both if we live, we live to Jehovah, and if we die, we die to Jehovah.—Rom. 14:8.
Just as our confidence in a surgeon may grow as we learn of his reputation, so our trust in Jehovah will grow as we continue to learn about him. Hence, we continue to study God’s Word carefully because that will help us to love him in a way that will dispel any fear of belonging to him. (1 John 4:18) Jehovah grants freedom of choice to all people. His Word says: “You must choose life in order that you may keep alive, you and your offspring, by loving Jehovah your God.” (Deut. 30:19, 20) He wants us to express our love for him by freely choosing to serve him. Rather than robbing us of freedom, belonging to the God we love will surely make and keep us happy. As sinners, we do not deserve to belong to a perfect God. Only God’s undeserved kindness makes it possible.—2 Tim. 1:9.
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.”
