Do you know, the truth about Gods kingdom?
Gods word teaches-- The coming of Gods kingdom is Good news. When Jesus returns to earth he brings Gods kingdom rule with him. It is here now in a sense for some. It is referred to as the new earth. Gods kingdom in full control for 1000 years( no satan influences) Jesus as king. The great multitude will be brought through on earth( Prov 2:21-22--Matt 24:22) and will be standing before Gods throne( Daniel 2:44)--- The earth will be transformed into a Eden( Paradise) in that time. Loved ones resurrected and could gain life everlasting. Food enough for all, forever. The lion will lay by the lamb( Harmony amongst all Gods creatures) it goes on to say a baby or child can sit upon a cobra hole and no harm will come to him. No more-- war, hatred, greed, sickness, diseases, famine, fear, aids, cancer, etc. Gods kingdom is a cure all--even over death. The motives of all human hearts will be as one human family--love over all other things. Life everlasting is offered. One must live now and always to do Gods will. I am positive God makes the right choice everytime as we do not.

The good news is not just about God's kingdom, although that is most certainly part of the good news. The truth about the gospel message is the good news that God saves sinners. Man is by nature sinful and separated from God with no hope of remedying that situation. But God, by His power, provided the means of man’s redemption in the death, burial and resurrection of the Savior, Jesus Christ. The word “gospel” literally means “good news.”
In 1 Corinthians 15:2-4, Paul explains the three elements of the gospel—the death, burial and resurrection of Christ on our behalf. Our old nature died with Christ on the cross and was buried with Him. Then we were resurrected with Him to a new life (Romans 6:4-8). Paul tells us to “hold firmly” to this true gospel, the only one which saves. Believing in any other gospel is to believe in vain. In Romans 1:16-17, Paul also declares that the true gospel is the “power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes” by which he means that salvation is not achieved by man’s efforts, but by the grace of God through the gift of faith (Ephesians 2:8-9).
The phrase “kingdom of God” occurs 68 times in 10 different New Testament books, while “kingdom of heaven” occurs only 32 times, and only in the Gospel of Matthew. Based on Matthew’s exclusive use of the phrase and the Jewish nature of his Gospel, some interpreters have concluded that Matthew was writing concerning the millennial kingdom while the other New Testament authors were referring to the universal kingdom. However, a closer study of the use of the phrase reveals that this interpretation is in error.
For example, speaking to the rich young ruler, Christ uses “kingdom of heaven” and “kingdom of God” interchangeably. “Then Jesus said to his disciples, ‘I tell you the truth, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven’” (Matthew 19:23). In the very next verse, Christ proclaims, “Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God” (verse 24). Jesus makes no distinction between the two terms but seems to consider them synonymous.
Mark and Luke used “kingdom of God” where Matthew used “kingdom of heaven” frequently in parallel accounts of the same parable Compare Matthew 11:11-12 with Luke 7:28; Matthew 13:11with Mark 4:11 and Luke 8:10; Matthew 13:24 with Mark 4:26; Matthew 13:31 with Mark 4:30 and Luke 13:18; Matthew 13:33 with Luke 13:20; Matthew 18:3 with Mark 10:14 and Luke 18:16; and Matthew 22:2 with Luke 13:29. In each instance, Matthew used the phrase “kingdom of heaven” while Mark and/or Luke used “kingdom of God.” Clearly, the two phrases refer to the same thing. Did you know that?

Believing you have truth and having truth are not the same thing!
Sadly JWs are believers in fake news not THE good news. The good news isn't that God's kingdom is coming though that is good but rather that we can all have our sins forgiven and live eternally.... but ONLY through Christ.
JWs believe in paradise earth and creating a distinction between the big flock and little flock, which isn't biblical.... ironic since JWs claim to only believe in the bible and then create doctrine based on applying their thoughts to the bible. Even more ironic is how they have sold the idea that the separation of the "anointed" from others is good news, and that on arrival only the smallest remnant of people (less than 0.1% of the population) will live. How ironic that JWs think this is good news and miss the point not only of THE good news but also biblical love!
