A message of Solace at The Time of Your Lost of a Loved One………… Will War and Suffering Ever End? WHY THE QUESTION ARISES: War continues to claim untold numbers of human lives. All of us have been touched by human suffering. WHAT THE BIBLE TEACHES: God foretells a time when he will establish peace earth wide. Under his Kingdom, a heavenly government, people will not “learn war anymore.” Instead, they will “beat their swords into plowshares.” (Isaiah 2:4) God will bring an end to all injustice and suffering. The Bible promises: “[God] will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things [including today’s injustices and sufferings] have passed away.”—Revelation 21:3, 4.See also Psalm 37:10, 11; 46:9; and Micah 4:1-4.It is my sincere hope that these words/this knowledge helps to sustain you, your family during your Bereavement…

Sadden to read of the death of your loved one. Though I know that this is a difficult time for you, my hope is that you will be comforted from God's inspired word the Bible. John 5:28,29 and Revelation 21:3,4 gives hope of a future resurrection and the complete elimination of death, pain and mourning. Under Jesus' kingdom rule we have this and much more to look forward to. Please accept my deepest condolences. For more scriptural encouragement please visit www.jw.org.
