People Who Believe in God but Cannot Submit to God Will Be Eliminated


People Who Believe in God but Cannot Submit to God Will Be Eliminated


There are currently some people in the church who don’t have a good disposition. They do not submit at all, do not care about God’s will and have even less consideration for the work of God’s family. Are these people still able to do their duty? There is no way that they can do their duty and God’s family will not use this kind of people. What kind of people are these people who do not submit? Do they belong to God or do they belong to Satan? These people do not listen to the words spoken by the leaders and workers even though they are right; they do not submit and will be eliminated. So, what is the essence of this problem of disobedience? It is that these people are unable to submit to the truth. They are not able to accept what others say although it is right and is in line with the truth. This kind of people belong to Satan and cannot be saved. If people do not diligently pursue the truth and learn to submit, then they will definitely be eliminated.

The Word of God in the Last Days | "God Himself, the Unique VIII" (Part Four)


Introduction

Almighty God says, "God’s supply of all things is sufficient to show that God is the source of life for all things, because He is the source of supply that has enabled all things to exist, live, reproduce, and continue on. Apart from God there is no other. He supplies all needs of all things and all needs of mankind, regardless of whether it is the most basic needs, what people need daily, or the supply of the truth to people’s spirits. From all perspectives, when it comes to God’s identity and His status for mankind, only God Himself is the source of life for all things. This is absolutely certain."

Using God’s Word as a Mirror



By Wu Xia, Shandong Province

After I accepted God’s work of the last days, I came to understand through reading God’s words that, if one wants to achieve a changed disposition and enter onto the right track of salvation in one’s belief in God, then one first has to learn the lesson of self-knowledge. Only by accepting the judgment and chastisement of God’s words, by knowing oneself from within God’s words, and by achieving an understanding of one’s own various satanic dispositions and corrupt essence, can one hate oneself and forsake one’s flesh, and no longer do anything rebellious against God or that defies God. Only when one truly knows the truth of one’s own corruption can one sincerely thirst for the truth, pursue the truth, and take God’s words into one’s real life to experience and practice. Only in this way can one gradually enter into the truth and achieve a changed disposition, and that is why self-knowledge is so important. Consequently, while reading the word of God, I made sure to cross-check myself against the word by which God exposes man. Whatever happened to me, I could recognize my deficiencies and inadequacies. I felt that I was able to understand myself. Yet, it was through a revelation from God that I was able to see that I did not truly understand myself according to God’s word.

The Truth Showed Her the Way to Get Along With Others (Part 3)



Xiaomo

Soon after, as the duty became more difficult, the four people in Jiandan’s group came across a new problem. While they were checking the articles, they would often come across some issues they didn’t thoroughly understand and sometimes they would get quite worried. When they discussed the issues together, if one person suggested a solution and the other two were all of the same opinion, they would not wait for the fourth person to have their say. Jiandan felt that if the majority held the same view then it should be right, and that by doing this they could be considered to be performing their duty in accordance with principles.

God’s Work, God’s Disposition, and God Himself I (Selection)



God’s Work, God’s Disposition, and God Himself I (Selection)


God created mankind; regardless of whether they have been corrupted or whether they follow Him, God treats human beings as His loved ones—or as human beings would say, the people dearest to Him—and not His playthings. Although God says He is the Creator and that man is His creation, which may sound like there is a bit of a difference in rank, the reality is that everything God has done for mankind far exceeds a relationship of this nature. God loves mankind, cares for mankind, and shows concern for mankind, as well as constantly and unceasingly provides for mankind. He never feels in His heart that this is additional work or something that deserves a lot of credit. Nor does He feel that saving humanity, supplying them, and granting them everything, is making a huge contribution to mankind. He simply provides for mankind quietly and silently, in His own way and through His own essence and what He has and is. No matter how much provision and how much help mankind receives from Him, God never thinks about nor tries to take credit. This is determined by the essence of God, and is also precisely a true expression of God’s disposition.

God’s Love Guided Me Through the Trial of Illness

God’s Love Guided Me Through the Trial of Illness

By Yiming, Hubei Province

The Church of Almighty God,Eastern Lightning,cup,
God’s Love Guided Me Through the Trial of Illness
I Rejoice to Be Reunited With the Lord

I’m 78 this year and I have always suffered from headaches and diabetes. After I began to believe in the Lord in 2005, the illnesses that had beset me for years were eased; I perceived God’s love and thanked the Lord from the bottom of my heart. Two years later, a relative preached God’s work of the last days to me and he said that the Lord Jesus had returned as the incarnated Almighty God. He said that Almighty God was now performing a newer, higher stage of work on the foundation of the Lord Jesus’ work of redemption, and that Almighty God was using the truth to judge and chastise man, to cleanse our corruption, and God would lead those who ultimately attained salvation into His kingdom. I was thrilled to hear this news, and I thought to myself, “I never imagined that I would actually be able to welcome the Lord in my lifetime. If in the future I could be led by God into His kingdom, that would be wonderful indeed!” Thinking this, my heart became filled with a joy I couldn’t express, and I thanked God’s love and salvation. After a period of seeking and investigating, I became certain from reading God’s words that Almighty God was indeed the Lord Jesus returned, and very soon after I was living the church life and doing all I could to perform my duty within the church.

God's Love Has Melted My Heart

Smiley face

Hymn 

God's Love Has Melted My Heart 

 Hearing Your kind call, I return before You. Your words enlighten, I see my corruption.

 I

 I've often been cold to You, hurt and saddened You, hard-hearted, rebelled, left You alone. Why is Your love for man repaid with pain? I hate my hard heart and my deep corruption. Filthy, unworthy to see You, of Your love. I am such a rebellious person, how could I know Your heart, see Your love? Your love is so real, I owe You so much. You keep me company when I'm chastised. Your heart aches with love when I'm refined. When I'm sad, You're there. What I lack, You give. Facing Your love, my heart wants to break. Your love has melted my frozen heart, and now I have had a change of heart.

Movie Clip "Knocking at the Door" (2) - What Mistakes Are Most Easily Made in Welcoming the Lord?



Movie Clip "Knocking at the Door" (2) - What Mistakes Are Most Easily Made in Welcoming the Lord?

Introduction 

Many people of faith in religious circles believe what the pastors and elders say, "All of God's words and work are in the Bible. It would be impossible for any of God's words to appear outside of the Bible." Is there a biblical foundation for this claim, though? Did Lord Jesus say these words? In Revelation, it is prophesied many times, "He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches." The words of the Lord say it so clearly: When the Lord returns in the last days, He will speak again. In the matter of welcoming the coming of the Lord, if we don't depart from the Bible and seek what the Spirit says to the churches, will we be able to welcome the Lord?
