Dear Brothren;

Thank you for your kind letter inquiring, "What can I do?" Have you taken your stand on the side of Jehovah? If so, that means that you are trusting in the precious blood of Christ Jesus ahead for the remission of aina and that you have made a consecration or agreement to do the will of Jehovah God. It would be proper for you to symbolize that agreement or consecration by water immersion in the presence of witnesses. Anyone who trusts in Jehovah and Christ Jesus could administer or perform the bantiamal service.

Then diligently study the Word of God together with his provided helpa that you may learn meekness and righteousness. If in your community there are others intercanted, that four or five of them more, can get together for study, that would be a good thing. The Time has come when the words of Jesus are being fulfilled (Rev. 22;17): "And the spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth any, Come. And let him that is at first come; and whoever will, let him take the water of life frooly." You have heard the good news. Tell it to others. Take advantage of such opportunities and time as you have to call on other persons and tell them of the kingdom of Jehovah under Christ Jesus and of his gracious provision for the human race.

The Lord is separating the sheep (that ia, the obedient ones) from the goats (that ia, the disobedient ones), and this he in doing by bringing to their attention the great truths of his Word. Do your part to get the truth to the people. This means that you are joining no earthly organization, but that you are joining yourself to the Lord and joyfully serving him, appreciating the fact that his kingdom under Christ is the hope of the human race. —Matt, 12:21.

Feel free to write the Watch Tower Bible & Tract Society, at 117 Adams Street, at any time. There you can get the books and booklgt. The Watchtower and The Golden Age for distribution amongst the people.

May the Lord give you increased strength and greater opportunities of service.

Wishing you His many blessings,

Your brethren in the service of the Kingdom,

Watch Tower A . g . J . Society .
