GKESHAM “millions now living will never die” — Judge OFTLOOK. Rutherford There is special significance in the troublous days through which the world has passed since 1914. Out of these events will come greater develop ments, involving all nations and peoples. The Bible acurately foretold present condi tions. Its prophecies regarding the future will be ful filled with equal exactness. The outstanding hope held forth in the Scrip tures is the hope of eternal life, and the reali zation of this hope is now at hand. It will be accompanied by all that the heart has longed for—health, peace, and happiness. God’s purpose in giving man a revelation of His Plan was that mankind should use it, understand it, and appreciate the principles it sets forth. An understanding of the Bible broadens one’s view and inspires cheerfulness and optimism. Prophets of old have described with glowing tongue the glories of the bright day that is now dawning.
