A Hymn of God's Words The Effect God's Judgment Can Achieve

A Hymn of God's Words The Effect God's Judgment Can Achieve 

I 

God's work in passing judgment is not, in two or three words, to make clear man's whole nature, but slowly to reveal, deal with, prune him over time. Such forms of treatment can't be changed for common words, only for truth, which lies beyond man's compass. Only such work is deemed judgment; only such judgment can make man obey God in heart and mouth, within, without, and truly come to know Him. 

A Hymn of God's Word God Has Appeared in the East of the World With Glory

A Hymn of God's Word God Has Appeared in the East of the World With Glory 

I 

God is doing work throughout the universe. Thunderous noises in the East do not relent, shaking all denominations and all sects. It's God's voice that brought all to the present. It's His voice that will have all conquered. They fall in this stream, and submit to Him. God has long ago reclaimed glory from the earth, and from the East He has reissued it. Who doesn't long to see the glory of God? Who doesn't await His return with eagerness? Who doesn't thirst for Him to reappear? Who doesn't miss His loveliness? Who would not come toward the light? Who wouldn't see the wealth of Canaan? Who doesn't long for the Redeemer's return? Who doesn't admire the One with omnipotence?

A Hymn of God's Words The Movement of God's Work in the Universe 

People on earth will yield to God, obedient as the angels are, no wish to oppose or rebel; this is God's work throughout the world. 

I 

God has been with man for years, no one's ever been aware, no one's ever known Him; now God's words tell them He is here. He asks man to come before Him, so they can receive gifts from Him. Yet man still keeps his distance; no wonder no one knows Him. 

The Hymn of God's Word The Holy Spiritual Body of Almighty God Has Appeared

The Hymn of God's Word The Holy Spiritual Body of Almighty God Has Appeared 

I 

Almighty God has revealed to us His glorious body in public. His holy body appears to us; He's God Himself: utter true God. The world has all changed, so has the flesh. He is transfigured to be God's Person, a golden crown upon His head, a white robe upon His body, a golden belt across His chest. All things in the world are His footstool, His eyes are like flames of fire, two-edged sword in His mouth, seven stars in His right hand. The kingdom road limitless and bright, God's glory rises and radiates. Mountains cheer and waters rejoice; sun, moon and stars all rotate, line up neatly for the one true God, who's accomplished a six-thousand-year management plan, to return with victory! 

The Hymn of God's Word Almighty God Has Been Seated on the Glorious Throne

The Hymn of God's Word Almighty God Has Been Seated on the Glorious Throne 

I 

The King has gained the victory, seated on the glorious throne, has redeemed His people and is leading them to appear in His glory. Firmly everything is in His hand; through His holy wisdom and power, He's built and fortified Zion, built and fortified Zion. By the majesty of His, He judged this evil world, judged all nations and peoples, the earth, sea, and all living things, and also those who are drunk with the wine of licentiousness. God will surely judge them, surely God will judge them.

God's kingdom has come on earth; God's person is full and rich. Who can stand still and not rejoice? Who can stand still and not dance? Oh Zion, raise your banner of victory to celebrate for God. Sing your song of victory to spread His holy name over the world. Countless people praise God with joy, countless voices exalt His name. Look at His awesome deeds. Now His kingdom on earth has come. 

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

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

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."

The Origins of Christmas

Every year, as Christmas approaches, shops on the street arrange a dazzling display of Christmas presents, with Santa Claus and Christmas trees, and so on. Festooned in trees and on buildings there are many-colored lights, and whole cities are decorated with lanterns and colored hangings, and everywhere there is joy and excitement. To Christianity, Christmas is a very special holiday, and several months before Christmas, many churches will begin to busy themselves preparing everything necessary for the Christmas holiday. On Christmas Day, the churches are filled, and brothers and sisters get involved in the celebrations, eating Christmas dinner, putting on performances and worshiping the Lord Jesus, and so on. Everyone’s face is flushed with happiness. However, when we get together in joyous gatherings to celebrate the Lord Jesus’ birth, do we understand the meaning of Christmas? Perhaps brothers and sisters will say, “The Lord Jesus was nailed upon the cross to redeem all mankind, and so as to remember and celebrate the Lord Jesus’ birth, Christians established Christmas. Though the specific day on which the Lord Jesus was born is not recorded in the Bible, Christmas gradually became a universal holiday in the wake of the expansion of Jesus Christ’s gospel.” We may have known this, but do we know God’s love and His will for us that was actually hidden behind the birth of the Lord Jesus? And how should we approach Christmas in a way that is after the Lord’s heart?

Christian Testimony | The Aftermath of My Husband’s Affair

Christian Testimony | The Aftermath of My Husband’s Affair 

December 12, 2018

Lu Lu Anhui Province

In the middle of the night around 12:00 a.m., Lu Lu was staring at the computer screen, not daring to believe that what it displayed was a list of her husband’s expenses from the last few months: a few hundred yuan on women’s clothing at a department store, over a thousand yuan on a bottle of imported alcohol from a high-end liquor store … Seeing this list of numbers, Lu Lu collapsed into the chair and felt a taste of despair for the first time in her life. She never could have imagined that her husband who had been through thick and thin with her would suddenly betray her. Her sister-in-law’s kind warning came to mind: “Lu Lu, aren’t you afraid that my brother will do something disrespectful to you while he’s away?” Her response was, “I couldn’t say what others might do, but your brother isn’t that kind of person.” Her air of confidence at that time surfaced in her memory—faced with the bitter truth in that moment, it really felt like a mockery. The truth, hard as nails, completely obliterated the last line of defense in Lu Lu’s heart, and tears rolled down her cheek one after another, like a string of pearls. She hoped so fervently that this was a delusion and so longed to return to the wonderful times of the past, to the nostalgia of their innocent love. …

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.

Soon after, three new sisters came to work in Jiandan’s group. Jiandan thought of how she was now the person in the group who had done this duty the longest, and in her heart she silently told herself to be sure to take real responsibility for the work, to pick up the pace with finalizing these articles and to remedy her lingering regrets.

Jiandan sat on her chair, staring at the number of articles on the worksheet in complete amazement and muttering to herself: “Why is there such a backlog of unchecked articles? Could Sister Liu Yan be in a bad state? But even if she is, she mustn’t let that interfere with her work.”

Jiandan was a conscientious, responsible person. When she saw a problem like this come up in work, she started to worry. She had initially wanted to call Sister Liu Yan over to ask her what exactly was going on. But thinking that if she started asking Liu Yan about her work when she herself had only just come back from performing another task somewhere else, she worried what Liu Yan would think of her. The two of them had always gotten along well together, so it would be terrible if this matter caused upset between them!

Christian Testimonies | The Power of Prayer—Witnessing a Miracle Amidst Despair

December 7, 2018

By Zhao Zhihan, China

As we journey through life, every one of us will experience some extraordinary events which become inscribed on our memory and will never be forgotten. The experience that has left me with the deepest impression was the time my husband was involved in a car accident, when no one knew whether he would pull through or not, and the days that followed, during which I felt at a complete loss and was at the end of my tether. But what was different for me was that, because God was with me and I had His guidance, I thus had a support, and through praying to God and relying on Him, I witnessed a miracle in the midst of my despair. During that disastrous time, what I gained more was understanding of God’s authority and sovereignty, and a true appreciation of God’s love …
