Both if we live, we live to Jehovah, and if we die, we die to Jehovah.—Rom. 14:8.

YAHUAH:Jehovah YHUH Modern HebrewImage via Wikipedia
Just as our confidence in a surgeon may grow as we learn of his reputation, so our trust in Jehovah will grow as we continue to learn about him. Hence, we continue to study God’s Word carefully because that will help us to love him in a way that will dispel any fear of belonging to him. (1 John 4:18) Jehovah grants freedom of choice to all people. His Word says: “You must choose life in order that you may keep alive, you and your offspring, by loving Jehovah your God.” (Deut. 30:19, 20) He wants us to express our love for him by freely choosing to serve him. Rather than robbing us of freedom, belonging to the God we love will surely make and keep us happy. As sinners, we do not deserve to belong to a perfect God. Only God’s undeserved kindness makes it possible.—2 Tim. 1:9. w10 1/15 2:17-19
