APPLY YOURSELF TO THE FIELD MINISTRY, May 19-25, 2025, Make Return Visits: FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE. (Making Disciples: A Work of Love, Lesson 9, point 4). Prepared Assignment.

Make return visits (4 min.) from house to house. On a previous visit, the person showed interest in a topic. Offer them a magazine that discusses that topic (LMD lesson 9, point 4).

Publisher(s): Good morning, Mrs. [Name]. How have you been since we last spoke? As agreed, I'm here to continue the conversation.

Assistant: Of course, [Name]. Good morning. Yes, I remember perfectly. I asked you if a world without war is possible. Please come in. I was just thinking about what you told me. Do you really think that's possible, given everything we see on the news?

Publisher(s): I completely understand your feelings, Ms. [Name]. It's natural to wonder how something so deeply rooted in human history could disappear. Would you mind if we first reminisce a bit about what we talked about last week?

Assistant: Yes, we read Isaiah 2:4, right? It says that nations will not lift up sword against one another nor learn war anymore. That's a very beautiful promise.

Publisher(s): But you may wonder how that is going to be achieved.

Assistant: Exactly. How do we move from this world filled with conflict to one of peace? For there to be lasting peace, people's hearts must change. Wars begin with selfish desires, such as domination, envy, pride, or greed.

Publisher(s): For the Bible teaches principles that help us cultivate love, patience, and respect for others. When people learn to live by these principles, the root of conflict will disappear.

Assistant: And you think everyone will change like that? It seems so difficult. Besides, will that be enough?

Publisher(s): It's certainly a big change, but the Bible assures us that Jehovah God has the power to bring it about through his Kingdom, or government. He will not only eliminate wars, but will also educate humanity in the path of peace.

Let's turn to the Bible and read Isaiah 11:9. It says, "The earth will be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea."

Imagine a world where everyone knows and applies God's ways of peace. And God's Kingdom, or government, will replace all human governments and put an end to humanity's problems.

I have brought this Watchtower, whose subject is the Kingdom of God.

Assistant: How nice that sounds!

Publisher(s): Yes, this magazine explains in more detail the Bible's promises about a future without war and how God will fulfill them. Would you like a copy to read at your leisure?

Assistant: Yes, I would very much like to. Thank you.

Publisher(s): You're welcome. I'm happy to share it with you. And if you'd like, I can come back next week to review the first article together.

Assistant: Sounds good to me, [Name]. In the meantime, I can read it calmly. Can you come back Saturday afternoon?

Publisher(s): Of course. I'll be here, Jehovah willing.
