Jehovah�s Witnesses �Imitate Jehovah� Assembly

Staff Writer | Thursday May 26, 2016 14:27

The theme for the Assembly is “Imitate Jehovah”. On each of the two days, the programme is scheduled to start at 9.30 in the morning.

The theme of the Assembly is significant because it underscores a core value for Jehovah’s Witnesses; faith in the true and living God Jehovah and His written word the Bible. Witness families embrace the Bible as the most trustworthy guide and source of advice in these troubled times.

Jehovah’s Witnesses believe that these are the last days, hence, the importance of imitating the Sovereign of the Universe, the loving Creator and God Jehovah. The bible is replete with verses and accounts that patently reflect many qualities of Jehovah that are worth emulating; such as love, wisdom, justice, compassion and impartiality. The programme is designed to encourage all in attendance to introspect and determine how each one could strengthen their faith in Jehovah by closely emulating his virtuous qualities.

Unlike any other book, Jehovah’s Witnesses recognise that the Bible has the power to transform lives. Worldwide, there are over 8.2 million Jehovah’s Witnesses serving in more than 118,000 congregations found in 240 lands and islands of the sea.
