Some time ago, passersby found on the road a copy of the book You Can Live Forever in Paradise on Earth. They took it to an elder in their Protestant church. He read the book with great interest and searched for the Witnesses, who started to study the Bible with him. His knowledge of Bible truth increased, so he resigned from his church and got baptized. Meanwhile, he zealously talked to others in his former church about the truth, and 25 members left the church to become Jehovah’s Witnesses. The man who replaced him as church elder also began studying the Bible with the help of the Witnesses, and he too resigned from the church. He now attends Christian meetings and has expressed his desire to become a publisher. His wife was baptized at a recent special assembly day. It is amazing to think that all of this began with one book that was found on the road!
