they're in this apartment!

Let's keep moving.

Yes.

Move!

Get in!

Hey, is that Sister Feng and Sister Tang? (Yes.)

Pastor Qiao is there too?

What's going on?

Let's turn back. (Yes.)

Mom, you're home?

You're home?

Keep listening. (All right.)

Qingxin, are you okay?

I saw Sister Feng, she was being arrested by the police!

What? Sister Feng?

She was arrested? What's going on?

I hear she received people from Eastern Lightning,

Pastor Qiao found out.

He brought the police to arrest them.

The Eastern Lightning, they left already and weren't arrested,

but the police did arrest Sister Feng.

I never thought that Pastor Qiao could do something this horrible.

Anyway, Eastern Lightning people are believers of God.

Isn't Pastor Qiao's action a betrayal of the Lord and of friends?

This is being a Judas,

the Lord will curse them for this.

As I see it, he'll do whatever it takes to stifle Eastern Lightning.

Right.

I don't understand,

all they do is testify that the Lord Jesus has returned

that He spoke words doing judgment work of the last days.

Why does Pastor Qiao hate them so much?

He worked with the Chinese government to arrest them!

There is something very wrong here!

In recent years, many good and head sheep

were stolen by the people of Eastern Lightning.

We must resist Eastern Lightning.

To protect the flock,

the church has printed more propaganda opposed to Eastern Lightning.

Please read them carefully.

These words incriminate Eastern Lightning.

There's no basis in fact; it's groundless.

Is this not spreading rumors?

It is.

In spreading rumors that incriminate Eastern Lightning,

the pastors and elders clearly violate God's commandments.

It appears that we cannot completely believe what the pastors and elders say!

How can Pastor Qiao be so evil?

He turned believers over to the government!

What is he doing!

Isn't this conspiring with Satan?

It is!

These days I have been pondering,

the church is desolate, without the work of the Holy Spirit,

the brothers and sisters are weak and negative.

True.

The pastors and elders do not lead us to seek the Lord's will in His word.

They ignore the Holy Spirit's work.

They've even made resistance of Eastern Lightning the central work of the church.

So I feel this is a serious violation of the Bible.

The Bible says nothing that condemns Eastern Lightning.

In doing this,

they're deviating from the Bible and committing outrages.

Right!

It's too much!

As I see it,

we can't keep blindly obeying one-sided statements of the pastors.

We should investigate Eastern Lightning, (That's right.)

and become clear about the truth of the matter,

and find out if Eastern Lightning is the Lord becoming manifest.

So what do you all think about this?

We should have investigated Eastern Lightning long ago.

These past years, more and more people are believing in Eastern Lightning,

and most of them are good sheep of many different sects and denominations.

They're all people who understand the Bible well.

It is no simple matter for these people to accept Eastern Lightning.

If Eastern Lightning didn't have the Holy Spirit's work

or the Holy Spirit's utterances,

there would be not so many people who understand the Bible accepting it!

There's certainly a mystery in this.

The pastors say that they've been deceived by heretics.

This is wrong.

If anyone were deceived, it would have been those fools who have no discernment.

It is impossible that good sheep of many denominations were misled! (Right.)

As I see it, the fact that so many good sheep of various denominations

have believed in Eastern Lightning

is sufficient proof that Eastern Lightning contains the Holy Spirit's work in it!

What you are saying is right.

Now, the religious world is missing the work of the Holy Spirit,

and the confidence and love of most people who believe in the Lord has gone cold.

Churches everywhere are desolate.

Why is the only sect that's flourishing Eastern Lightning?

Even under persecution by the Chinese Communist government,

they spread the gospel with unbounded confidence.

This could only be achieved through the work of the Holy Spirit!

That's right.

Take the brothers and sisters of our church who accepted Eastern Lightning.

Since they've accepted Eastern Lightning,

they have all changed and are more confident,

they're willing to risk their lives to spread the gospel.

Who could achieve this without the Holy Spirit's work?

I think it's very possible that Eastern Lightning comes from God.

Yes.

We should pursue it and investigate it,

and hear if the words spoken by Almighty God really are the voice of God.

This way we can be wise virgins and welcome the Lord's return!

Qingxin, what is it?

It's nothing; let's go.

Hello?

People from Eastern Lightning have gone to Sister Li's house.

What? They are stealing sheep again?

This is outrageous!

Keep close watch. We'll be there soon.

Should we first report this to the police?

Go easy.

Let's get to Sister Li's house first to see what's up,

to avoid what happened last time,

when the Eastern Lightning people were not caught

and our church's brothers and sisters were arrested.

As usual, you have thought it through best.

Let's go! (Yes.)

Sister Dong, Sister Yang,

hearing you fellowship Almighty God's words and witness for His last days' work,

I have received great edification and have gained great rewards!

Thank God! Thanks be to God!

I now understand truths that I failed to understand for years,

many points of confusion in my faith have been resolved. (Thank the Lord.)

My heart is more enlightened.

I feel that my belief in God has a clearer path! (Thank the Lord.)

Thank the Lord.

We must thank Almighty God!

Yes. Thanks be to God.

Brothers and sisters, this is God's divine favor to us!

Right. Thank the Lord! Yes. Certainly.

You've received great results from hearing us commune Almighty God's words.

What does this illustrate?

This shows that the words of Almighty God are the words of the Holy Spirit;

they are God's voice!

Does everyone agree?

Yes!

The Lord Jesus left many words unspoken during the Age of Grace,

people back then couldn't receive them, due to their small spiritual stature.

Hence the Lord Jesus promised to return during the last days,

to guide people to understand how to get into all truth.

Just as the Lord Jesus said,

Nowadays, the Lord Jesus has returned as Almighty God in the flesh. (Yes!)

Almighty God has expressed all truth to fully save people,

revealing God's management plan.

These truths are the water of life that nourishes us.

Indeed.

Yeah, it's exactly true.

Read Almighty God's words often,

and we will understand truth, and our lives will be nourished.

That's right. Yeah.

Brothers and sisters, let us read some more of Almighty God's words!

Great!

Let's turn to page 1454.

Brothers and sisters, let's read another passage. (Yes!)

Who's there?

Qingxin, it's me, Wen Ping.

Pastor Qiao, Elder Zou.

Pastor Qiao, Elder Zou.

Pastor Qiao, Elder Zou.

Pastor Qiao, have a seat and we'll discuss whatever you want. (Yeah.)

As I see it,

Sister Li, this is a strange matter.

Everyone has been welcoming the Lord's return,

waiting for the Lord to descend on a cloud,

so we can be lifted into the air to meet the Lord.

I never imagined how Eastern Lightning could have come about

and testify that the Lord has returned.

We have not seen the Lord descend on a cloud, however,
