KEEP ON THE WATCH!
People are making important decisions about which leaders they will choose.
What does the Bible say?
The Bible identifies a limitation that all human leaders have.
“Do not put your trust in princes nor in a son of man, who cannot bring salvation. His breath goes out, he returns to the ground; on that very day his thoughts perish.”—Psalm 146:3, 4, footnote.
Even the most capable leaders will eventually die. Furthermore, they cannot guarantee that any of their good works will be continued by those who come after them.—Ecclesiastes 2:18, 19.
The fact is, the Bible reveals that humans were never meant to govern themselves.
“It does not belong to man who is walking even to direct his step.”—Jeremiah 10:23.
Is there anyone who can provide good leadership today?
The Bible explains that God has appointed a most capable and trustworthy leader: Jesus Christ. (Psalm 2:6) Jesus is the King of God’s Kingdom, a government that rules from heaven.—Matthew 6:10.
Will you choose to accept Jesus’ leadership? The Bible highlights the significance of that choice:
“Honor the son [Jesus Christ], or God will become indignant and you will perish from the way, for His anger flares up quickly. Happy are all those taking refuge in Him.”—Psalm 2:12.
Now is the time to make your decision. Bible prophecy reveals that Jesus began ruling in the year 1914 and that soon God’s Kingdom will replace all human governments.—Daniel 2:44.
