The album's title is a reference to a phrase used in the Jehovah's Witness faith in the 1920s.[2][3] It is, for instance, the title of an essay by Joseph Franklin Rutherford, who was the second president of the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society.[4] By March 1998, the album had sold over 50,000 copies, with 80% as CDs and the remainder as LPs.[5]
