Accra will be one of the thousands of communities around the globe that will receive a powerful message of hope<\/strong><\/em><\/a> this November, as Jehovah\u2019s Witnesses embark on a special campaign focusing attention on the Bible\u2019s hope for a better world.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The campaign will feature the distribution of a special edition of The Watchtower magazine containing the cover series \u201cA Better World Is Near<\/strong><\/em>.<\/a>\u201d<\/p>\n

More than 36 million printed copies of the magazine will be distributed in some 230 languages to communities in 240 lands around the globe. In addition, the digital publication is available<\/strong><\/em><\/a> on various platforms in nearly 400 languages.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor all the difficult situations people are enduring, especially in the last couple of years, some begin to wonder whether world conditions will just continue to deteriorate,\u201d said Daniel Adashie, spokesman for Jehovah\u2019s Witnesses.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut a better world is not just a dream, it\u2019s inevitable. In fact, it is a central part of Jesus\u2019 gospel.\u201d<\/p>\n

The magazine<\/strong><\/em><\/a> addresses the age-old \u201cdoomsday\u201d question, \u201cIs this world going to end?\u201d<\/p>\n

The Bible\u2019s comforting answer may surprise many readers. While some religions have predicted an \u201cend of the world,\u201d the magazine reveals the Bible\u2019s clear message: The earth is here forever and will never end! However, the magazine explains that the Bible promises an end to injustice by quoting from the book of Psalms where it states that eventually, wicked people will no longer plague the earth. \u2014 Psalm 37:10.<\/p>\n

This positive message has been the hope of millions around the world who have prayed for God\u2019s Kingdom to come. During this year, a father of three was tragically and suddenly killed in a power surge accident while working from home. Commenting on how the Bible\u2019s promise of a \u2018better world to come\u2019, helped her cope meaningfully and continue to heal, his widowed wife said: \u201c\u2026the hope is real, it has really strengthened us\u201d.<\/p>\n

This is only one example of many who experience the death of loved ones, loss of work, violent crime, emotional and physical health challenges as well as environmental degradation, to mention a few. The Watchtower has been carrying the message about God\u2019s Kingdom for more than 100 years and remains the most widely translated and circulated magazine in the world.<\/p>\n
