“Not Ashamed of the Good News”The Watchtower—1990 | January 1

b Time and again, those who disowned Jesus and Jehovah out of fear of men have found no favor from the world. For example, see The Watchtower of May 1, 1989, page 12; 1982 Yearbook, page 168; 1977 Yearbook, pages 174-6; 1974 Yearbook, pages 149-50, 177-8. On the other hand, even determined opposers of the good news anticipate that the Witnesses will not disown Jesus and Jehovah. (1989 Yearbook, pages 116-18) See also Matthew 10:39 and Luke 12:4.

We are not ashamed of the government that we sincerely recommend to all mankind. We do not shrink back from preaching the Kingdom, though this course may bring us persecution. Like the apostle Paul, each one of us says: “I am not ashamed of the good news.”

Jesus knew that in spite of the most vicious persecution on the part of the Devil’s organization, God’s spirit would motivate the true followers of the Messiah to go to the very limit in order that “this good news of the kingdom” as an established fact might be “preached in all the inhabited earth.”—Matthew 24:14.

20 Without shame, these fearless proclaimers of the good news of the Kingdom have been able to accomplish a global witness despite worldwide opposition because they have superhuman power behind them—the backing of the heavenly angels. Hence, Jehovah’s Witnesses “fear God and give him glory.”—Revelation 14:6, 7.
