Captain Lang, the target's in sight.
Target 8-5-2-3?
Paint the target.
Chief Luo,
our target, The Church of Almighty God's figure with the mobile number ending in 8-5-2-3,
is in sight. (Great.)
Maintain surveillance, and when it's time, make quick arrests. (Yes, sir!)
There are people in various sects who love the truth
and are able to recognize the voice of God.
When they hear Almighty God's word, they feel that it's the truth,
that it reveals the Bible's mysteries.
They determine Almighty God's word is the voice of God.
They're all eager to study the true way.
More and more people are accepting.
God's sheep listen to God's voice.
It's true.
It's imperative we make every effort to supply those who wish to study the true way
with the words of Almighty God, so they may hear the voice of God.
God's entrusted us with this task.
That's right!
Unfortunately, many new believers don't have their own books of God's word.
Truly, we must send them some books of God's word as soon as possible!
There are many new people in the church
who'd like a full set of books of God's word. (Indeed.)
We've depleted our supply of books of God's word.
Some new church members haven't received
even the most basic reading of The Word Appears in the Flesh.
We must quickly transfer a batch of books of God's word.
Okay! Somehow, I'll find a way.
And now let us pray together! (Good.)
Hey.
Really? Oh.
Sister, we need a lot more this time.
If possible, around two thousand or so.
That's terrific! OK.
Goodbye!
BC sector.
Tag her.
That's her, subject 8-5-2-3!
Amen!
I'll take a look.
Oh no, the police!
Pack separately! Hurry!
What are you doing?
Move! (Go!)
Who authorized you to break into my house?
Don't move!
Don't get smart!
Get down! Hands on your head!
You've no authority to arrest us. What law did we break?
You—(Don't be slick, you old witch!)
Move it! (Aunt Wang!)
Aunt Wang!
You are all the people's police.
How can you beat us at will?
Down! (Get down!)
Come here, come look. We have 8-5-2-3!
Not for nothing did we all break our backs.
We've finally caught this big fish!
A big Church of Almighty God leader.
Take her there.
Get up!
Down!
God, please guard my heart. Give me faith and strength.
I want to stand firmly and witness for You.
I won't betray You like Judas!
Captain, we found this.
Is that it?
We looked. That's all we found.
Take 'em away!
Level with me,
what is your role in The Church of Almighty God?
Are you a main leader?
Who are your leaders then? Answer!
We actually have no need of a confession from you.
To tell you the truth,
we've been monitoring you for three months.
We know all we need to know about you.
You used to be a newspaper reporter.
You're now a leader of The Church of Almighty God.
Is that correct?
Whatever job I hold in the world or duty I perform in the Church,
is it against the law?
Isn't religious freedom explicitly stipulated in the national Constitution?
My belief is within the law.
What authority do you possess to monitor me,
or to arrest believers of God?
What authority?
Listen up. In China, belief in God is a criminal offense!
You of all people should grasp
that the Chinese Constitution does not represent the CCP's policy.
Your belief may align with the Constitution,
but it violates CCP policy.
So your faith is an offense.
The Communist Party's policy is law!
You mean to tell me you never figured that out?
The CCP is an atheistic party.
Atheism and theism by definition conflict.
How could the incumbent CCP tolerate belief?
Man is created by God, so is everything in the universe.
God rules over all, including humans.
Man's belief in God is just and proper.
What right does the CCP have to deny citizens religious freedom?
On whose authority does it deny believers their right to life?
Why are believers of God not allowed to live in the land of China?
Jiang Xinyi, you need to grasp the situation.
You must grasp that the CCP hates most God's appearance and work
and believers of God like yourself.
It especially hates the truth in the Bible and The Word Appears in the Flesh.
These are the two books that the CCP hates most.
Without both of these books,
believers of God would be no more.
Citizens would follow the CCP.
That's why the CCP will not ever tolerate you believers!
Within China, believing in God is a dead end,
especially for followers of Almighty God
who are more formidable than those of Jesus in witnessing for God.
For that alone, we must deal with you more severely!
When you're home and secretly meet,
the CCP will arrange for sub-district offices, village committees, and neighbors
to monitor you,
and then arrest you.
To those of you with particular influence,
we dedicate personnel to track and report real-time intelligence on you,
and to round you up whenever you congregate.
When you leave home and are in exile,
the Party will offer bounties for your quick arrest.
You will be captured sooner or later.
Even when you have fled overseas,
the government can use diplomacy and other means to extradite you.
We'll drag you back at all costs for immediate torture and imprisonment.
Why is the CCP so willing to invest this much manpower as well as money
on suppressing religion?
Its goal is not only to ban and eliminate every religion,
but to exterminate and eradicate all who believe in God!
"Troops won't be withdrawn until the ban is done!"
Abolishing the work of God and the church of God and making China an atheist domain
is the CCP's religious policy!
Now that I've said this,
do you still dare to talk about reason and law with the CCP?
Now that I've explained the policy of the Communist Party,
how do you feel?
Is there anything else you don't understand?
From all that you said, I grasp it.
All of the CCP's insane suppression of Christians
is meant to abolish religious beliefs and make China an atheist domain.
Do you really think it's possible?
Has any country become an atheist domain?
In the whole world, I don't know of one.
No existing power in the world can abolish people's religious beliefs.
Communist governments have always wanted to ban religious beliefs.
Have any succeeded?
Not only did they fail, there are more and more believers of God.
What do you think that's all about?
This proves that God is the Master of all.
It is the Spirit of God at work!
Is man able to ban it?
If the ruling party keeps acting against God,
isn't it going against Heaven and the natural order?
Enough!
We're interrogating you, not you interrogating us!
Judging by what you have said,
you're definitely a church leader, and a big one at that!
You'd better start talking if you don't want to be tortured!
I warn you,
today we'll let you tell us who your leaders are and where the church money is.
This is your chance to make up for your mistakes.
But if you dare to refuse to answer honestly,
don't expect to walk out of here alive!
Captain Lang.
Look at this one.
Who is she? What's her name?
Is she or is she not your leader?
She's my friend.
Is it a crime to chat with a friend in a park?
Tell us!
Your "friend" in the photo, is she the one you called "sister" on the phone?
Did you ask her for 2,000 books of God's word?
Did you think by contacting secretly and speaking in code, you'd get away with it?
You underestimate the Chinese police force!
All of our surveillance equipment was imported from the U.S.;
it's the world's most advanced equipment.
No matter how you talk on the phone,
we can recognize your voice,
and we can spot when you're speaking in code.
We've mastered the codes you most frequently use.
You'd like to escape from our eyes? Not a chance!
We'll give you the opportunity to explain now.
This is your chance for leniency.
If you're stubborn and refuse, don't blame us for what comes next.
Our instruments of torture aren't for the weak of heart.
With us, the tightest lips will loosen and sing us all a tune.
Your monitoring tools are certainly advanced,
but you are misusing them
in blocking and banning the work of God as well as arresting Christians.
What law have we broken?
What could God's incarnation to save mankind be guilty of?
Why do you want to ban God's work of salvation for man?
What other country has their police monitor Christians like this?
You spent so much money to buy such sophisticated surveillance equipment
to monitor, track, and arrest Christians,
but is it even legal in the first place?
If the CCP rules by law and respects human rights,
why do believers feel the need to talk in code over the phone?
Isn't the CCP the root of all this?
The government violates the citizens' right to religious beliefs
and deprives believers the right to life,
then turns around and convicts them for violation of law and order.
Isn't this a case of the thief crying "Stop thief"?
Explain to me who is violating the law;
is it believers or you?
Hey.
Your words reveal that you still don't grasp the CCP.
Why is the Chinese Communist Party so against God as well as God's work?
It's because Christians like you believe in God's word and not in the CCP's word.
In the eyes of the CCP, you are its enemies!
You violate the CCP's policy,
which is worse than committing a crime!
According to the past policy, it should be treated as counter-revolutionary.
Even though the saying of counter-revolutionary is banned,
since you violate CCP policy,
you are now the CCP revolution's target.
The CCP will completely ban and eliminate you all.
Am I being clear in what I explain?
What you have said clarified everything
and helped me understand the CCP.
The CCP is quite determined to oppose God and to fight against God to the end.
What I don't understand is:
What good does it do for the CCP to be the sworn enemy of God?
By resisting God, will the country be more prosperous?
Will the people be happier?
Within the Age of Law, God proclaimed to man:
Since ancient times, all who act against God are punished.
The persecution we endure for belief in God is only temporary.
The punishment for resisting God? That is eternal.
God's disposition is unoffendable.
Dammit, you dare try to spread the gospel and witness for God here?
Do you not know who we are?
We're devils committed to fighting God!
We don't accept what you stand for.
We're the disciples of Satanist Karl Marx. We are atheists!
If God were real, I'd still deny Him.
I'd rather perish in hell than accept God!
You preach gospel and witness God here? You are courting death!
Want to talk heavenly justice?
Then! Talk! Heavenly! Justice!
Still want to talk?
All right.
Today, Jiang Xinyi,
I am going to help you clearly see who's the true master of your fate.
You will see if it's truly God, or if we're the master of your fate.
Hang her up now!
You like that? You're comfortable now?
You'll get the full treatment if you don't tell us all.
Let me tell you,
we've countless ways of fixing "godized people" like you.
Want to bear witness and pledge allegiance to God?
Want to be a remarkable witness to Him?
I will let you be a Judas, a disgrace to God.
First I'm going to post your pictures online.
Then I'll post you have sold out your church and become Judas.
I will ruin your name.
Everyone in your church will forsake you!
When I am done, you won't be able to clear your name. There'll be no chance of it.
Let's see how you'll face the people of your church.
I well know the evil you are capable of.
Framing the innocent, spreading false rumors,
these are just a few of your tricks.
But God is righteous.
God examines everything.
God knows whether or not I am Judas.
Your words don't count!
Bitch, start talking!
Who is in charge?
Dammit, I said talk!
Talk! You better talk! You better talk now!
Who is your leader?
Where's the church's money?
Are you talking or not?
Where is the church's money?
Almighty God, the CCP devils are too malicious!
God, I beg You to give us faith and strength.
Right!
Yes, yes.
You are right. Yes, Secretary Chen.
The Eastern Lightning case is of utmost importance.
I have arranged for my best men
to shock-interrogate the key elements of The Church of Almighty God.
It should be effective.
Please rest assured, sir!
Fine. Yes, yes.
Good-bye.
How many days has it been?
There's still no progress!
The provincial department is invested in this case.
If you don't get a confession soon, you and I will have a problem!
Chief Luo,
these people of The Church of Almighty God are really tough cases—(That's enough!)
No excuses!
What do you want me to say now?
I said it long ago.
People of The Church of Almighty God are tough.
The interrogation methods we currently use simply do not work at all on them!
It's true. You're right.
May I ask, what should we do?
It's clear, torture alone does not work.
Let's try some soft tactics.
Get President Yuan and Director Du of the Legal Education School.
Use brainwashing techniques to convince them.
I've no doubt they will talk.
That is a smart move!
President Yuan, here's Jiang Xinyi.
Captain Lang, how could you treat Ms. Jiang like this?
President Yuan, you don't understand, she—
What'd she do? She only believes in God.
Why beat her like that?
Quick, uncuff her!
Find a room where Ms. Jiang can rest. (Yes.)
Ms. Jiang, your treatment was uncalled for.
Just try and get some rest now.
Tomorrow, I'll come again.
God, the police suddenly changed their attitude toward me.
I do not know what kind of tricks they're playing now.
God, may You enlighten me, guide me, and give me wisdom,
so that I can see through Satan's tricks.
Xiao Jiang, did you sleep well last night?
Let's chat a bit.
Xiao Jiang, please rest assured,
we're not here to interrogate you.
Just to have a little chat.
If something's wrong, you can tell me.
I will do my best to help you.
Yeah, if you have something to say, go ahead and say it.
Our president's kind-hearted.
I don't have anything to say.
We believers in God have no common language with you atheists.
I'm afraid we couldn't hold a conversation.
Come now, you can't really think that.
You're a journalist, I head a school.
We're both intellectuals.
So there must be some way we can still talk.
Speaking from the heart, I feel such sympathy for you.
You're a highly educated person,
and you used to be a respected journalist.
It's quite an achievement!
You must know that journalists are called uncrowned kings,
who are able to wield tremendous influence.
Your pen can make a leader or an enterprise popular.
It could make someone famous overnight.
Journalists are favored by leaders at all levels.
Do you agree with what I've just said to you?
A journalist's in a visible position.
There's frequent contacts with leaders and opportunities to advance.
We call it a "strategic vantage point."
The sky's the limit for a journalist who goes along with the Communist Party.
A journalist is in a much better position than we are.
Listen, you're an intelligent and wise person.
I just don't understand,
how could you give up such a profession and choose to believe in God?
Look at yourself right now,
instead of being a widely respected journalist,
you're a prisoner for believing in God.
Isn't it so demeaning?
Getting locked in jail, ruining your future, all for your belief in God,
it's really quite a tragedy.
Don't you agree?
Today, I am here to help you.
All you need to do is tell us everything you know,
sign a letter of repentance, and promise not to believe.
We'll let you go home immediately. You will be free.
In addition, I'm also willing to speak on your behalf to your unit
to reinstate you as a reporter, and to groom you for a most promising future.
What do you think of this?
Xiao Jiang,
our president has influence with the provincial government.
It is truly a blessing that he is willing to help you.
You should seize this opportunity.
President Yuan,
you're a government official, and I used to be a Party reporter.
We both have life experience.
In this dark and evil age of ours, where is the light?
Where is the justice?
How can one lead a meaningful life?
I often think about these questions.
I used to naively think that as a reporter I could work for the people and speak for them
by writing articles that would accurately depict some important social problems they face.
But as I became older, I understood.
While the CCP is in power,
all news media are run by them, and merely serve as its mouthpiece.
There'd be no chance to speak for the people.
Reporters have no choice but to spread lies,
sing praises for the CCP, and deceive the public.
If any reporter dares to cross the Party and to report the truth,
fairly speaking for the people,
that person will be sanctioned.
The reporter could be fired, thrown into some prison;
the reporter might even be killed.
Among all journalists, this fact is an open secret.
Those reporters who disapprove dare not voice their indignance.
This harsh reality was painful and left me feeling confused.
As they say, "Good begets good, evil evil."
There's bound to be divine punishment for CCP's followers.
Having read the words of Almighty God,
I've discovered the truth in Almighty God's words.
In the last days,
God's incarnation is for the cleansing and salvation of man,
to deliver man from sin.
This is an excellent chance for mankind to be saved.
If man rejects truth and follows the worldly trends of sin,
he will surely be destroyed in the catastrophe.
When I was a reporter,
I would do unconscionable things to attain fame and status.
I deceived the people for a living.
I was indicted by my conscience.
My heart was in deep pain, without peace.
If I followed the Communist Party,
my future would certainly be punishment in hell.
And so I resolved to accept God's work and give up this job.
I decided to believe in God and take the proper path.
President Yuan,
if you don't know the existence of God, nor understand faith in God,
you can read the word of Almighty God.
The truth and God's existence will become quite clear to you.
You will then understand where man came from and where he'll go.
You will know how to live so as to be praised by God and to be blessed.
Forgive me, but you've only believed for ten years.
You're still considered a rookie.
I've lived a very long time and studied religion for decades.
I can tell you with great confidence,
in this world of ours, there is simply no God,
nor has there ever been any Savior.
The belief of God is just too vague.
It's simply impractical.
We are both educated people;
we should look at the issues according to facts and science,
and believe the theories of Darwin, or even of materialism.
Do you agree with me?
Why is it you feel that you have to believe in God?
We communists believe in atheism and the theory of evolution.
You must know that Darwin's theory of evolution
is one of the most important theories in the history of science.
According to Darwin,
it's conclusive that everything on Earth was created by the work of nature.
Man's an accidental product of nature's process of biological evolution,
man had evolved from the ape.
There's a sufficient theoretical basis.
This shows that God did not create man.
What's written in the Bible
are but myths and legends that aren't to be taken seriously.
If I may, I advise you to study materialism and evolution.
They're truly practical and will remove your doubts.
I believe, when you're able to see it clearly,
you will have the correct understanding of religious beliefs,
and free yourself from the illusions of blind faith at long last.
Only by following the CCP, will you have a future.
The CCP's an atheistic party.
It believes in materialism and evolution.
But what is the result?
Both materialism and Darwinism are rejected by most.
More and more people accept God and return to Him.
Increasing numbers believe that the word of God is the truth.
The world has now reached the end of the last days.
God's work is at the final step.
God will make visible all of His deeds,
so that people in the last days
will see that all things in heaven and earth are created and ruled by God.
As in when Almighty God says,
Come now, you even witness the word of Almighty God here?
You'd like to preach the gospel to us?
Don't you see what kind of place this is?
Just now, you said you were not here to interrogate me.
You said you're here for a heart-to-heart talk.
That's why I communicated God's word with you, so we could have that talk.
I took you at your word, and shared how I feel.
Are you unhappy about it? (You!)
Hey!
In fact, I'm pleased you confided in us and that you take us as friends.
Please go on.
Since the creation, God's done three stages of work.
He's expressed many truths in every stage of His work.
The whole Bible is a record of God's work in both the Age of Law and the Age of Grace.
Then Almighty God performed judgment in the last days,
expressing truths for the cleansing and salvation of mankind,
most of which has been recorded in the book called The Word Appears in the Flesh.
Though we don't see God's spiritual body,
we can see all the words God expresses in every age when He appears to work.
It fulfills the words of the Bible:
Since mankind was corrupted by Satan,
God's been speaking and working in order to save mankind.
In the Age of Law,
God worked in Israel to issue His law and commandments,
to guide mankind's life on earth.
In the Age of Grace, God became flesh as the Lord Jesus,
and did redemptive work within Judea.
Almighty God incarnate appears and does His last-days work in China.
God's word recorded within the Bible and in The Word Appears in the Flesh in the last days
is the proof that God both speaks and works in the world to guide and save man.
If it were not for God's Spirit,
how could one speak such powerful and authoritative words?
Man is unable to see the Spirit of God,
but can hear the words He expresses.
This is enough to prove
God's Spirit has been speaking and working to guide and save mankind.
Man can only believe in God according to God's word.
When man is sincerely praying,
he can feel the Holy Spirit's work and the existence of God.
You've not read the Bible and God's word or prayed to God.
You have not believed in God,
so you cannot feel the existence of God.
In the last days, God became flesh as the Son of man
in order to speak and work among people.
All words expressed by Almighty God
are the truth with authority and power that He alone could utter.
This proves that it is the Spirit of God that speaks,
and the Spirit of God that is realized in the flesh to appear and do His work.
Once I read Almighty God's words in The Word Appears in the Flesh,
I could clearly feel that these words came from God.
It was God speaking directly to mankind.
That's why I accepted Almighty God.
After experiencing God's work for many years,
I've felt the authority and power of God's word,
and I've felt the Holy Spirit's enlightenment.
I saw God's wonderful deeds.
Within my heart,
God's authority, power, omnipotence, and dominance are overwhelmingly real!
It can be said those with a heart and spirit
can see the fact of God's existence and God's dominance over everything
from all that God has created and all the truths He's expressed.
The fact that every prophecy and every word of God is being fulfilled and achieved
makes it obvious that only the word of God is the truth.
All of mankind must see God's omnipotence and dominance.
Well now, what you've said sounds considered and reasonable.
But I have never seen God.
I have never seen how God works, nor how He dominates the world,
for it's hard for me to recognize God and accept Him.
From having studied religious beliefs for many years,
I think that religious belief offers spiritual sustenance,
it is merely a way to fill mankind's spiritual emptiness.
Didn't believers of God ultimately die like the rest of us?
No one's able to verify who went to heaven and who to hell.
To me, religious belief seems unrealistic and quite vague.
With scientific development and human progress,
religious belief will most likely be abandoned and cast aside.
We all need to believe in science.
Only science can uncover the truth and reality.
That no one can deny.
Although science has not denied God,
it hasn't witnessed God's existence.
If science should find proof that there is God and that He dominates all,
then we too will believe in God.
All of us communists just believe in science.
Only through the belief and development of science will society progress.
Science can solve many real problems of human societies.
What does belief in God offer people?
Other than temporary spiritual comfort, what else is it good for?
It solves no practical problems.
What I'm saying is belief in science is more realistic than belief in God.
We all have to believe in science.
Mr. Yuan,
atheism holds science above all and places great faith in it,
to the point of deeming science as truth, science as faith.
But if science were the truth,
why have so many of its theories been refuted and disproved after existing only briefly?
This shows that science is not the truth at all.
Can science solve human society's most serious problems?
Can science solve human corruption?
Can science solve the darkness and evil of the world?
Can it help people know God?
Can science bring happiness and peace to mankind?
Now that science has been fully developed, what are the consequences?
Science has not brought happiness and peace to mankind.
It's brought wars and disasters that threaten to destroy man.
The environment's been destroyed.
Wholesome food, unmodified, is now rare.
Isn't this all true?
With the development of science,
humans increasingly believe in science, and in turn deny and resist God,
which is leading to mankind's growing catastrophe.
Just as Almighty God says,
When man advocates and believes in science,
he'll naturally deny the truth and God.
What'll the outcome of that be?
When man believes in science he'll naturally refuse to accept God's work and salvation,
and even resist God.
When man's left God, there's no room for God in his heart,
so man won't have God's blessing.
Now that mankind advocates science, evil, and follows worldly trends,
the gap between mankind and God grows wider,
the whole world grows ever more dark and evil and ever more against God.
The increasingly frequent struggles and wars
have brought a variety of disasters to mankind.
Be honest, do you think science can save man from evil and sin?
Can science help man escape the catastrophe in the last days?
Can science secure a good destination for mankind?
These are major issues related man's outcome that science cannot solve.
This is enough to prove science is not the truth,
science cannot save man.
Almighty God's expression of truth in the last days is for man's salvation.
If mankind receives the judgment and cleansing of Almighty God,
it can get God's protection amid the catastrophe,
and then survive to be brought to God's kingdom.
This is God's promise.
Whether or not man accepts the word of God,
he will see God's words fulfilled by the time the catastrophe has ended.
And it will be too late for regrets.
Xiao Zhang, Xiao Zhou,
so, the pastors and elders of the religious community
tell me that you believe in a man, and not Jesus Christ.
You witness this man is in fact the returned Lord Jesus,
or Almighty God appearing to work.
Are you aware the Communist Party has condemned Christianity and Catholicism as cults?
Yet you witness that the Lord Jesus has returned as Almighty God.
Is this not foolishness?
How can the Communist Party spare you?
The CCP designates Christianity and Catholicism as cults,
and the Bible as a cultist book.
This is a widely known fact.
You must be aware of it.
If the CCP dares to condemn and deny the world's orthodox religions,
why couldn't it condemn Almighty God's appearance and work?
If the CCP could declare the Bible is a cultist book,
then why would it consider tolerating The Word Appears in the Flesh?
Public security agencies have confiscated many copies of this book.
Many people are studying it.
I don't understand it.
Why must you people believe in Almighty God?
Why insistently witness that Almighty God is Christ of the last days?
We've come to understand everything about His family background.
He is an ordinary person, just as Christianity's Jesus is.
Jesus was the son of a carpenter, and had parents as well as siblings.
He was just an ordinary man.
Yet the entirety of Christendom worships Him like God.
The Almighty God that you people believe in is also a man like Jesus,
yet you insist that He is God.
This is quite inexplicable.
You both endured so much pain for believing in an ordinary man.
So, is it worth it?
I hear that many followers gave up families and careers for Almighty God.
I'm curious what is there to gain from believing in God like this.
What is the basis for you to believe that He is God?
You believers of God are quite incredible.
In my whole life,
I've never seen any proof of God's existence at all.
Yet all of you pronounce this ordinary man to be God.
Just what is the basis for this assertion?
Is it that He changes the weather, performs miracles and wonders?
Does He ascend to heaven?
Can you please clarify?
We know, the CCP's an atheistic party that doesn't recognize God in heaven.
How could it recognize the incarnate God?
So we're not surprised by the Party's reaction to our faith in the incarnate Christ.
Not a single bit.
There are many religious people who only recognize God in heaven,
and not the incarnate Christ.
So they are eliminated by the work of God.
For millennia, God's done three stages of work to save man,
and God uttered many words in each stage of His work.
Mankind only came to accept God's work because of God's utterances.
By the last days, the Lord Jesus' gospel has spread all over.
Ever more people believe in God, over two billion all together.
Is it possible you have overlooked this fact?
Churches are seen everywhere in democratic countries.
The Christian, Catholic, and Eastern Orthodox churches
all believe in the Lord Jesus Christ.
You must at least know this.
The Lord Jesus Christ is the incarnate God.
For two thousand years,
countless people have been following and witnessing for the Lord Jesus.
The Lord Jesus only appeared to be an ordinary person.
Why is it so many believe the Lord Jesus is the Savior and the appearance of God?
If you do want to know what the appearance of God is and what Christ is,
you must read the Bible,
and see how the Lord Jesus preached and worked,
and how the Holy Spirit witnessed for Him.
Then you'll know why people believe in the Lord Jesus.
Incarnation itself is a great mystery.
Christ of the last days, Almighty God, has expressed
all the truths for the cleansing and the salvation of mankind,
and unveiled all mysteries in the Bible.
Not believing in God or reading Almighty God's word,
how could you know the mysteries about God?
Do you want to understand just what incarnation is?
If you want to understand
let's communicate about Almighty God's word
and see what Almighty God has said.
Do you think we can?
We're trying to understand this. You can go ahead.
Almighty God's also uttered that
Almighty God has revealed the mysteries of incarnation in these few brief passages.
When we hear the word of God,
we immediately grasp what incarnation is all about.
Only God incarnate can express the truth for man's cleansing and salvation.
Can you deny it's the appearance and work of God?
Are the world's famous and great people able to express the truth?
Aside from the incarnate God, no one can express the truth.
The One who can express all truths for mankind's cleansing and salvation
is naturally Christ and the appearance of God.
This is beyond a doubt.
Our belief in Almighty God is due to all the truths
that Almighty God has expressed for man's cleansing and salvation,
and His judgment work in the last days.
So we believe that He is God incarnate
and the Lord Jesus who has returned in the flesh in the last days.
That's the base for our belief in Almighty God.
I know that
you who believe in Almighty God do so 'cause you've read Almighty God's words,
and think Almighty God's word is the truth and the voice of God.
So, you witness Almighty God is Christ of the last days, the returned Lord Jesus,
who's done judgment work in the last days.
This is the basis for your belief in Almighty God.
I believe followers of Almighty God don't believe in a man lightly.
However,
communists have never recognized the existence of God or His dominance,
let alone the word of God as truth.
The word of God is the truth to you, not to us. Not at all.
We believe that Darwinism and science are true.
That's the reason we condemn your belief.
Clearly, we are on two extremely different paths.
Yet leaders within the religious community don't accept the Almighty God you believe in.
How can you explain that?
It's no surprise some leaders within the religious community resist Almighty God,
for most people only believe in the God in heaven,
just a few people can accept and know the incarnate God.
Two thousand years ago,
when the Lord Jesus appeared to work,
didn't all the chief priests, scribes, and the Pharisees of Judaism resist the Lord Jesus?
They even gave the Lord Jesus to the Roman governor to be nailed onto the cross.
Both times that God has appeared in the flesh to work,
He has expressed many truths
and done work for man's redemption and salvation.
Though many recognize God's existence,
they do not know about the incarnation of God.
The greatest mystery, that of incarnation, they can't ever fathom.
Each time that God appeared to work in the flesh,
many were revealed and eliminated.
Almighty God incarnate both judged and revealed people by voicing truth in the last days.
Upon hearing the truths expressed by the incarnate God,
those who love the truth recognized the voice of God.
They realized it was God's appearance and work,
so then they accepted Christ and obeyed Christ.
For those who do not love the truth,
though they recognized the authority and power of God's word,
their preconceived notions led them to resist,
since the incarnate God looked like an ordinary man.
And so, these people who detest the truth were revealed and eliminated.
The people that God saves are those who love the truth and in turn accept the truth.
The people that God reveals and eliminates loathe and hate the truth.
This shows God's omnipotence and wisdom!
God's disposition is found in the manner of His work.
The incarnation of God is truly a great mystery.
It's not easy to penetrate!
Many people have stumbled over this.
This is how I view it and accept it.
Having heard what you said, belief in God seems yet more profound.
You stated incarnation is a great mystery,
many believers in God can't fathom it.
Communists don't recognize God and don't acknowledge the word of God as truth.
Therefore, your witnessing for God, especially witnessing for God in the flesh,
is what we cannot tolerate.
Of course we have to condemn and oppose it.
Were it not for the expression of truth by God in the flesh,
could so many people follow God?
That's why we most hate the incarnation of God, and the truth expressed by Christ.
Don't you know that?
There's one more matter that I have never been able to understand.
The One you believe in is Almighty God,
and you read Almighty God's word,
you pray in the name of Almighty God,
but according to what we know,
your Church of Almighty God was founded by a man, whom you obey in all matters.
By your testimonies, this man is a priest, a person used by God,
in charge of administrative matters.
I am quite puzzled by this.
Who was it that founded The Church of Almighty God?
How was it begotten?
Well, can you explain this?
Director.
I didn't expect you to know a bit of The Church of Almighty God.
You know the One we believe in is Almighty God,
and read Almighty God's words, and pray to Almighty God.
So why say The Church of Almighty God was made by a man?
I don't know where that idea comes from.
The One we believe in is incarnate Almighty God, not a man.
Most of the words Almighty God spoke are in The Word Appears in the Flesh.
And since you haven't read this book yourselves,
you can't truly understand The Church of Almighty God.
From the Chinese Communist government's spreading rumors
that The Church of Almighty God was created by a man,
it proves the CCP doesn't understand The Church of Almighty God at all.
They don't even understand how The Church of Almighty God was formed,
yet they insist that it was created by a man.
It's very absurd, right?
Don't you think that's at all preposterous?
Let me ask you: Who then created Christianity?
Who created Catholicism?
Eastern Orthodox, Catholicism, and Christianity
were all made by the redemptive work of the Lord Jesus.
Though the apostles made churches everywhere,
that doesn't mean Christianity was made by the apostles.
The churches in every age were begotten by the appearance and work of God.
The Age of Grace brought churches from the Lord Jesus' appearance and work.
The Age of Kingdom brought churches from Almighty God's appearance and work.
Without God's appearance and work,
could the apostles have made churches all by themselves?
Those who joined the church believed in God.
It wasn't the apostles they believed in.
So you can't say the churches in any age were founded by just man.
Even when the churches were established,
the apostles built them in the name of Lord Jesus.
The apostles didn't say the churches came from them.
That's a known fact.
Why doesn't the CCP speak according to the facts?
Why distort the facts so blatantly?
Isn't it ridiculous?
Almighty God appeared in the last days to utter the truth.
When Christians of all sects who love the truth heard the voice of God speak,
and saw God's appearance and work,
they returned to Almighty God and were brought before His throne,
and that created The Church of Almighty God.
Many people established churches everywhere,
but do we say these establishers are the creators of the church?
The Church of Almighty God was created because of Almighty God's appearance and work.
That's a fact. No one can deny that.
Quiet! You've said enough.
Even if that's true, we won't agree.
Since we're all atheists,
we must continue to condemn your belief.
We say what we want to say.
You don't have the right to plead.
Think about it.
When we go and condemn your faith, can we speak with facts?
It may be fact, but while you say one thing,
we as communists say another.
Whether the incarnation of God is true,
we must condemn Him as a man.
Whether you like it or not,
there will always be those who accept our side.
And that's enough.
That will achieve what we want.
Also, though The Church of Almighty God believes in Almighty God,
you all seem to obey the work arrangement
and organization of a man who's like your manager.
No matter what kind of figure,
we can only say The Church of Almighty God was created by him.
Whether or not you all like it, that's what we'll say.
The CCP is loud, and you're not.
When we say so,
there are many people who are bound to believe us.
Whether or not you accept it, agree or not, doesn't matter.
Because our goal has been achieved.
Xiao Jiang.
After hearing what you've said,
it appears that I haven't seen through your faith in God.
What you said makes sense.
When I get a chance,
I'm going to read The Word Appears in the Flesh as well,
although I have a word of advice.
Even if I were able to spare you,
the Communist Party will not be lenient with believers in God,
because you go against the atheist Communist Party.
So the Party deems believers in God as enemies.
Central leaders decide to ban all house churches,
especially The Church of Almighty God.
I advise you to face reality.
Look at all the prisons our country has.
Who were they made for?
Can you still not see the truth?
They say a wise man submits to circumstance.
Your belief in God under the CCP simply isn't possible.
If you insist on belief, then your outcome is jail, or death.
Are you aware of the consequences?
I say this only for your own good.
You say your words are for my good. That's not true.
For us who believe,
we follow the path of God's salvation,
which is completely contradictory to your path of Marxism and Satanism.
You want to pull me from the path of faith to your own path of demise.
It's entrapping and harming me.
How can it be for my own good?
Almighty God's appearance and work
is entirely for the cleansing and salvation of man.
You don't accept the truth, but resist and condemn the work of God.
You're seeking your own demise.
Mr. Yuan,
though you're not a believer, this you should know:
Through all history,
every country and race that acted against God or resisted God
were destroyed by God.
The people of Sodom who resisted God
were killed by the fire cast down from heaven.
The Jewish people crucified the Lord Jesus, leading to the subjugation of Israel.
The CCP will incur God's punishment
for resisting Almighty God and brutally persecuting Christians.
Just as Almighty God says,
Enough! Shut up!
You really are "godized."
You won't compromise. You can't be redeemed. You'll get thrown in jail.
Xiao Jiang.
I genuinely wanted to help.
If you still follow Eastern Lightning, you'll not only go to jail,
your husband will be dismissed by his unit,
and your children cannot enter the university.
How will they live from now on?
If you are sentenced and die in jail, it's not my fault.
I've said all I can.
You should think it over.
Afterward, give me an answer.
This Jiang Xinyi is not a simple person.
She understands a lot.
She must've read The Word Appears in the Flesh a lot.
She is certainly "godized."
Yes. That's how followers of Almighty God are.
They really can't be underestimated.
The word of Almighty God seems powerful.
How many years have they believed?
It's a deep-rooted belief.
Converting them won't be easy.
Call Pastor Feng immediately.
Get ready for the second conversion phase. (Yes.)
Oh, Almighty God, I thank You.
You guide and protect me in overcoming the deception and temptation of Satan.
God, no matter how they treat me next,
I'll only choose the truth and righteousness.
I'll stand firmly on Your side.
Xiao Jiang, your belief in God is quite pious.
I admire you.
I'd like to know more about believing in God.
That's why I've invited Pastor Feng here.
He's believed in God since childhood, studied theology,
and been a pastor for more than twenty years.
You're both believers of God with a common language.
Let's explore it together
to see which is the correct and viable path to believe in God.
Sister.
President Yuan said that you're persistent in the way you believe.
You've endured arrest, persecution, and torture for adhering to your faith,
without denying God.
That is admirable.
But I feel sorry for you.
What is the point of all this suffering?
The Bible says,
With years of belief, you should know what that means.
The Bible was inspired by God after all.
I believe we believers should obey those in power.
That's how I perceive it.
Pastor Feng.
You interpret Paul's words differently than how we interpret them.
I've been persecuted for as long as I've believed in God,
and do not understand
I believe, Paul's words are not what the Lord Jesus meant.
Because the Lord Jesus never said to obey the higher powers.
Nor did the Holy Spirit.
Believing should mean obeying the Lord's word.
The word of man should not be taken as the truth and word of God.
After years of praying and seeking,
I finally see that the CCP is an evil group.
To obey the CCP is to betray God.
We all know the CCP is atheist,
openly denying and resisting God since it took power.
It labels that Christianity is a cult, and the Bible is a cultist book, burning copies,
and arrests and persecutes Christians.
Christians have been beaten to crippled or death,
and families are shattered.
They even pursue overseas,
using economic and political means to extradite Christians who fled to other places.
The CCP has too many crimes against Christians for us to count.
Tell me,
can God allow His chosen people to obey such a sacrilegious and evil regime
that's blatantly and perversely against God?
If we obey the CCP, aren't we on Satan's side?
Since it resists God and tries to stop us from believing in God,
it is God's enemy.
To obey the CCP, isn't that just betraying God?
Christians of years past were persecuted and martyred
for following, witnessing the Lord.
Did they obey those in power?
Was their martyrdom punishment for resisting the ruling power?
Would Paul dare condemn the Lord's martyrs?
I don't think he would.
When it comes to Paul's words, what was their basis?
Is it possible that Paul didn't realize those in power resisted God?
That's why Paul's words give me some doubts.
I question when Paul says
Neither the Lord Jesus nor the Holy Spirit said this.
I suspect that many of Paul's words are man's intent.
So I wouldn't accept them as the truth.
I only obey the word of God and follow according to His word.
As for the words of man, including the apostles',
they're just a reference.
I would only accept words that are consistent with the truth and the word of God.
Otherwise, I would not.
That's how I see it.
Sister Jiang.
Your Bible perception is very pure.
I read it that way once too.
However, I saw the cruel reality.
If you continue this, you will be persecuted.
You will suffer. You'll be in danger.
The Communist Party is a revolutionary one.
If you disobey, it will end your life.
So then, how should you deal with this under the circumstances?
If someone believes so firmly even when they are tortured,
they could lose their life.
How could you believe in the Lord if you aren't alive?
It took me a long time to come to terms with this.
If you defy the authorities, it doesn't work in China.
The Lord is merciful.
He knows the situation, understands how it is.
He would not ask too much of us.
The Lord wants us to not be disgraceful of Him.
So I joined the Three-Self Church.
With the government's support,
we can have peace in belief in the Lord.
Your way of believing brings persecution, coercion, detention, imprisonment, martyrdom.
Could that be the right path?
Here in China,
you must be willing to join the Three-Self Church to believe in God.
There is simply no other way out.
There are many in the Three-Self Church who are loving and pious.
Can you say they really don't believe in the Lord?
Believers in Almighty God witness for God and spread the gospel
even after facing persecution.
Even when you are jailed,
you refuse to be like Judas, and stand up for God.
Honestly, I think it's very admirable.
On the other hand,
regarding what we seek in our belief,
don't we all just want a peaceful and a nice life?
We of the Three-Self Church are prudent.
We glorify God and are patriotic.
We don't offend the authorities or betray the Bible.
We worship the Lord openly in church.
We never have to hide or live in fear.
That's the best of both worlds, right?
And I think your experience could make you a great asset to the Three-Self Church.
You could soon become a pastor, or even have a say in politics.
You would have fortune and success.
By then, you'd be able to preach at any church you want.
Now, isn't that better than being underground,
risking your life every day to believe in God?
Pastor,
it is hard and dangerous to believe in God in China.
But if we go by Paul's word, obey the CCP, and follow the Three-Self Church,
we would be safe, but would we have the praises of the Lord?
Would we get into the kingdom of heaven?
I think not.
Those words clearly show us,
we should take the narrow way that leads to eternal life.
The Lord also said,
To go by Paul's words and obey authority,
is that the strait gate, the narrow way?
Is that bearing the cross in following the Lord?
If we all obey those who are in power under the CCP the devil,
aren't we becoming people who betray God?
Then who would be left to spread gospel and follow the will of God?
How can you receive the praises of the Lord by believing in this way?
The Three-Self Church is a fabrication of the Communist Party,
completely controlled by the government.
It doesn't speak truth in the Bible, or about obeying God.
It's all patriotism, making a fortune, and benefiting the people.
This proves to me that it's actually a false church,
an accomplice of the CCP suppressing house churches,
and monitoring house church activities.
They even help the government arrest brothers and sisters who witness for God.
This is Satan's instrument of alliance.
Pastor Feng,
when those in the Three-Self Church obey the government,
are they obeying God or obeying Satan?
Can God commend the puppets that help serve Satan?
Can those cowards who live under Satan's domain enter the heavenly kingdom?
And now, the Lord Jesus returned.
He's the incarnate Almighty God,
uttering truth and performing judgment work
for the cleansing, salvation, and perfection of man,
to bring them to God's kingdom.
In God's appearance and work in the last days believers will have a test,
in which they will be revealed,
as the Lord Jesus prophesied:
Almighty God's appearance and work reveals all people.
The tares and the wheat, the good servants and the evil ones,
those who love truth, those who hate truth,
they've been revealed by God's work in the last days.
Now is the time to determine man's destination.
If man lives ignobly, in fear of the CCP's coercion and persecution,
without receiving Almighty God's work,
what would the outcome be?
Can they receive the Lord's praise?
Pastor Feng, I'm interested in seeking.
How did you receive it?
Hearing you speak now, it seems your belief is quite profound.
I really should study it well.
But Pastor Feng here has been teaching the Bible for decades.
He knows what he's saying.
Xiao Jiang, don't you agree?
You see he's just so modest.
His language is unimposing.
According to your words, that is piety.
I believe you should learn more from him.
Ask him about anything you don't understand.
He can guide you to the right path to believe in God.
You should listen to what he has to say.
Sister. Your idea of the right path is very good.
With the Lord Jesus' words, it's consistent. I agree.
But you say that the Lord Jesus has returned as the incarnate Almighty God.
That I don't understand.
You also know
for years the Communist Party has been convicting and arresting you all.
Most pastors of the religious community condemn Eastern Lightning.
If Almighty God is truly the Lord Jesus' return,
He'll surely meet opposition from the CCP,
but why would the religious community condemn as well?
If the Lord really returned,
He should have appeared to the pastors and elders,
so that they would be the first to be raptured.
But that's not what happened.
Eastern Lightning isn't just condemned by the CCP,
because even pastors and elders in the religious community resist and condemn them too.
What's the problem?
Can you explain this to me?
Pastor Feng,
you're questioning God's appearance and work in the last days
because pastors and elders resist Almighty God.
That's normal.
When the Lord Jesus appeared to work,
not only did the Roman dictatorship resist and convict Him,
Judaism also condemned the Lord Jesus.
Was the Lord Jesus then not the appearance of God?
Are you sure that everything condemned by the religious community is not the true way?
Since you believe that
anything condemned by the religious world is not God's work,
I ask you, was the Lord Jesus God's appearance?
Was the work of the Lord Jesus the appearance and work of God?
Since the leaders back then resisted the Lord Jesus,
what's your basis of belief in the Lord Jesus?
Pastor Feng, you're familiar with the Bible.
So why did the Lord Jesus curse the Pharisees?
Pharisees represented who?
Didn't they represent the religious leaders?
Revelation predicted the demise of the religious world.
What did it mean?
It shows religious leaders are resistant to God.
They all act against God; they deny and resist Christ.
Don't you admit that's true?
Why is the religious community so devoid of the Holy Spirit's work?
It's enough to show God hates and curses that whole community.
God wants those who really belong to Him to come out of religion,
to leave the city of Babylon, and come to God.
That's God's intention.
If you don't believe it,
look at the prophecy of Revelation, how the Lord Jesus cursed the Pharisees,
and you will understand it.
The Lord Jesus cursed the Pharisees, you're right.
And Revelation also predicted the fall of Babylon.
I know all of this.
However,
you say that Almighty God is the Lord Jesus
who has returned to perform judgment work in the last days.
Is that based in the Bible?
Believers in God know
the Lord Jesus will return by descending with the clouds for all to see.
And so far, we haven't seen the Lord Jesus descend with the clouds.
So I'm certain that the Lord has not yet come back.
Sister Jiang, I don't understand.
Why do you say Almighty God is the Lord Jesus who has returned?
How can you be sure that God will appear in the last days incarnated as the Son of man?
Can you tell me that?
Pastor. You often teach the Bible.
You should know it more than me.
But my belief in Almighty God was founded on examination.
I've read many words of Almighty God, and found that His words are the truth,
unveiling mysteries of the Bible.
The expression of Almighty God is the voice of God.
My acceptance of Almighty God is based on the prophecies of the Lord Jesus.
The Lord Jesus mentioned "the coming of the Son of man"
and about
This clearly shows that
in the last days, the Lord will return as the Son of man,
and will still speak to man.
When man hears this voice, he will greet the Lord.
Almighty God's appearance fulfills the prophecies of the Lord Jesus.
The Lord's word is that He will return as the Son of man in the last days.
The Son of man refers to a regular man with normal humanity.
It means the incarnation of God.
If it were the spiritual body of the resurrected Lord Jesus,
it couldn't be the Son of man,
because the Lord Jesus' spiritual body can fade in and out and penetrate walls.
It won't follow normal physics.
It isn't flesh with normal humanity.
Pastor, am I right in saying this?
Because the Lord has returned as the Son of man,
like the Lord Jesus in the past, appeared as an ordinary normal person,
people resist Him for they don't realize He is God.
If the Lord came down in a spiritual body, it'd be a great sight.
People would go all prostrate.
Then how would the Lord suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation?
Wouldn't the Lord Jesus' prophecy fall short?
So then, the Lord's return as the Son of man in the flesh in the last days is true.
How would you receive it, Pastor Feng?
Your understanding is justified and biblically sound.
But then I can't equate the appearance and work of God with expressing the truth.
If one has the revelation of God,
can't they express the truth as well?
The prophets expressed God's words.
Does this mean they're God's appearance also?
Sister Jiang,
you have to be careful when accepting God's appearance and work.
As the Bible says:
The Lord said in the last days there would be false Christs and false prophets.
So then, we can't just believe anyone who witnesses the Lord's return in the flesh.
You understand?
How do you know you're not being deceived?
Pastor.
Hearing your words, you're so afraid of being deceived
you can't accept the work of God in the last days.
Many people warned me when I was studying the true way.
They read me the same bit of scripture you did.
But this passage only tells us to be cautious and avoid being deceived.
It doesn't refute the Lord's return in the last days as the Son of man.
It doesn't prove Christ won't appear to work in the last days,
because the Lord Jesus clearly stated,
If we interpreted this part as Christ would not appear to work in the last days,
and we would be deceived by false Christs,
it would be a big mistake.
Pastor Feng, you should also know
in the years around when God appeared in the flesh in the last days,
false Christs and prophets appeared, deceiving people everywhere.
But when this happens,
how do we determine it's God's work and appearance?
How do we discern the false Christs?
The words of the Lord Jesus are very clear.
From the Lord's words, we can know this:
When the Lord returns in the last days He'll speak.
Those who hear His voice will have greeted the Lord.
So then, we must listen to God's voice to determine God's work and appearance.
The Book of Revelation said,
For the appearance and work of God,
one must seek the words of the Holy Spirit to the churches.
When we find a church where the Holy Spirit speaks,
there we find the Lord's appearance and work.
When I discovered the words expressed by Almighty God are the truth and the voice of God,
I accepted Almighty God.
Without God, who could express so much truth?
That was enough to prove that it was the appearance of God in the flesh to man,
because man is corrupt and without truth.
Even those saved by God and ancient saints could not express it.
Believers in God can't express the truth, even with biblical knowledge.
Satan can perform miracles, but not express the truth.
Though a prophet can speak the words of God,
he's only repeating the words.
The words he conveys are very limited.
His function would cease without God's instructions.
He has no truth by himself.
Nor can he do God's work.
He is only a man.
Therefore, in seeking the Lord's work and appearance,
be sure that Christ is the truth, the way, and the life.
Only He who expresses truth is the appearance of God.
If he can't express the truth, even if he makes miracles,
he is not the appearance of God.
I have thought about this for a while.
I determined,
since Almighty God expresses so many truths, He's the appearance of God.
Is there anything wrong in my conclusions?
Well, Pastor Feng. Let's hear your side of this.
Sister Jiang.
Hearing what you say, it's clear that you're thoughtful and assertive.
You see,
I now believe you're not foolishly deceived into believing in Almighty God.
You haven't believed for long, but you understand the Bible so well.
I admire that.
It seems the truth can be found in the words of Almighty God.
When I get a chance,
I should really read The Word Appears in the Flesh,
and look into His work in the last days.
President Yuan, I must go.
I have things I need to do.
Wait, pastor …
These believers in Almighty God are so stubborn and hard to convert.
I used to think people who believed did not have knowledge or education.
I did not expect them to speak so insightfully and powerfully.
It's like we weren't interrogating.
They were doing it to us.
If this went to international court, we wouldn't have a case.
Luckily this is China,
where we can interrogate them as we want.
Our voices are louder.
No matter what we say or do to them, they just take it.
Director Du was right.
These people they've been godized.
Although their appearance seems to be soft and weak,
all of their words are justifiable, reasonable.
We can't underestimate these people.
They know too much.
I think when it comes to transforming the criminals we can do a little.
When it comes to the faithful of The Church of Almighty God,
trying to convert them?
Waste of time.
Even though a few wrote letters of repentance, saying they'd stop,
once they got back home, they'd believe again.
Doesn't that mean our conversion work has failed with them?
Interrogation didn't make instant results.
This matter helps me understand
that when it comes to faith, people never change.
Every person's faith and their path seems almost predetermined.
Ideological education or brainwashing don't make much difference.
I see religious people of different factions. They all take different paths.
Those who choose to accept Almighty God enjoy reading The Word Appears in the Flesh.
They say it's the voice of God, the truth expressed by God in the last days.
They truly follow Almighty God.
Some people choose to believe in Jesus and hold onto the Bible.
Some people choose the Three-Self Church and the government.
They base these decisions on personal knowledge.
Within the religious community,
the factions don't compel or impose on each other.
Is there any way we can alter their choices?
The Chinese Communist Party has been instilling atheism in its people for years.
What does this achieve?
Even the communists themselves don't believe in the words of Marx and Lenin now.
How do we make the believers of God into atheists?
Believers in Almighty God say that most Chinese people don't have a faith,
that they're empty inside and seek the excitement and pleasure of sin.
How long can humans survive in that way?
After listening to their words,
I see it's sensible and thought-provoking.
It makes me think:
How can The Word Appears in the Flesh be so powerful
that it gives believers in Almighty God so much faith?
The Communist Party has fiercely suppressed Eastern Lightning,
capturing, maiming, even killing them as we please.
But with The Church of Almighty God,
the people still spread the gospel and witness God.
Is it really like how they say,
Almighty God's words have authority and power, and grant them faith and strength?
This is truly incredible.
No wonder central leadership is mad,
trying to ban The Church of Almighty God as soon as possible.
Maybe the power of the book The Word Appears in the Flesh is too great.
Countless people all over the world are starting to study this book.
No wonder leadership is anxious.
We must come up with a way.
Brainwashing and conversion don't work on them.
Isn't there another method?
I think these people require some special means.
We'll have to play "good cop, bad cop."
Since we can't fight them on their ideological point of view,
we should completely break them down, physically and mentally.
We can use tag team around the clock, and deprive them of sleep.
We can interrogate them like this for several days.
They can't handle it.
Once their endurance reaches their limit,
they'll give up, and they will collapse.
Our focus now is not converting them,
but having them account for it.
This gives us the important people, letting us catch the key figures in the Church.
A clean sweep.
That's the most important thing.
Captain. Contact Mr. Shi of the criminal police force.
Move Jiang Xinyi and them to the base.
Introduce them to our special treatment.
Sir. Will do.
Chief Luo.
We'd like to see the details of Jiang Xinyi and the others,
and take a good look at them.
So, you're 8523?
Do you know where you are right now?
This is a place for interrogating major criminals.
When someone comes here, we can do what we want with them.
If you were to disappear, no one would know.
Now, the smart thing to do
would be to level with us about your belief in God.
Otherwise, things will get bad.
My belief is reading Almighty God's words, gathering, praying.
But there's nothing else to say.
Oh? Oh? So that's it?
Then let's try something different.
Okay. Let's make her "fly the plane."
Let's see how she likes that.
Talk!
You think you're tough? Talk!
Are you gonna talk or not?
How's that feel? Not too great?
Still no?
Well, I've got something better.
Damn.
Captain?
It's fine. She'll live.
Look how helpless you are.
But you're still playing tough.
We have plenty of other tools to get you to talk.
If you were smart you would confess.
I … I …
I have nothing to confess.
Damn!
Come on, talk!
Confess!
It seems if I don't go hard on you you won't take me seriously, huh?
I thought you said God was a Master of your destiny?
How come your God's not helping you now?
If I want to let you live, you live.
If I want you dead, you'll die.
Your God can't save you.
Don't mind her.
Don't worry.
No one makes it through this one.
Let her wake up. For sure she'll talk.
She's pretty tough. Only you can handle it.
God, I can't take it anymore.
God, save me … save me …
God, my life is in Your hands.
Whether I live or die, I will never give in to Satan.
Captain, she's awake. (Really?)
Oh?
Well. Thought about it?
I thought it over.
Coming here, I do not expect to walk out alive.
Yes?
Chief Luo.
Jiang Xinyi?
Okay.
Got it. I'll send her over now.
Miss Jiang. Was it hard these past couple of days?
You know what they did.
So why do you even bother asking?
Certain things are just out of our hands.
That's how the Communist Party treats believers.
In my heart, I feel sorry for what happened.
I want to help you.
Your case can change based on your choice.
It all depends on your attitude.
If you work with me on these issues and clarify the church's affairs,
I'll let you go home.
How does that sound?
I will talk to the leader in a bit.
If you're willing,
you can work for the magazine affiliated with Public Security.
It's a good opportunity. A good job.
Many people couldn't even bribe their way in.
You'd be lucky.
Listen, you can count on me for it.
Think it over carefully.
I appreciate your kindness.
But to sell out the church and my brothers and sisters for me,
I refuse to do that.
After believing in Almighty God and reading many of His words,
I know the truth.
I know what is good and what is evil.
I know what kind of life has worth and meaning.
Almighty God leads me to the right way.
I need to do this as a person.
I can't give up my principles.
Mr. Yuan.
You know why the CCP represses and persecutes believers in God.
It doesn't fit with the will of Heaven and the conscience of man and the law.
I've fallen in your hands now.
Whether I live or die, I won't sell out my brothers and sisters or betray God.
That's just who I am.
Nothing you do will change my mind.
Miss Jiang, why are you so obsessed with this?
You should consider your situation.
What's the consequence if you keep this up?
I've offered to help how I could.
If you don't work with me, I can't help you.
Yes?
Oh. Good. Understood.
Someone else is here to meet with you.
I think this will be good.
Mom! (Xiaoxiao!)
Xiaoxiao. (Mom.)
Mom. I miss you.
Xiaoxiao, tell me.
Who brought you here?
Mr. Yuan. Why did you bring my daughter?
What do you want with her?
Miss Jiang. I knew you had suffered so much.
I thought it'd help.
You must have thought of your daughter.
I only have good intentions.
Since your arrest,
do you know how much suffering your daughter has gone through for that?
Teachers look down on her. Classmates bully her.
Even the neighbors talk.
I imagine how hard it must be for her.
Painful, damaging for a child.
If not for your own sake, you should think of your daughter.
How can you have the heart to watch her suffer like this?
Mr. Yuan.
Who are the ones who caused my daughter pain?
Why are our families facing all this rejection?
Who are the ones who caused this?
This country resists, discriminates, ridicules, defames Christians and also God.
This proves what?
Isn't this whole generation evil?
The CCP acts out against God, persecuting innocent Christians.
It shows the CCP is behind these tragedies.
Why does nothing this discriminatory happen
in other nations that have freedom of religion?
Why is China dark and evil?
It's because of the Chinese Communist Party!
But you turn around and shift all the blame onto the Christians.
You're all just distorting the facts, making up lies.
Don't you feel ashamed about what you say?
Leave the country if you want to believe in God.
China has the Communist Party.
While they're in power, no one shall believe.
If you believe, you will be arrested and go to jail.
You're asking for trouble by being resistant.
There's nothing we can do.
Would any of this have happened if you didn't believe in God?
You should think carefully about it.
If you refuse to cooperate,
you're not the only one who will be punished.
Your family will be implicated.
Your husband will be dismissed too.
Your daughter won't be able to get into college.
She'll have trouble finding a job.
Do you have the heart to watch their futures crumble before you?
Think hard about it.
You say China is the CCP's world.
While they're in power, no one shall believe in God.
I don't get it.
Why won't they let people believe in God?
Why do they suppress and arrest all the Christians?
What law have we violated? What crime?
Why do you treat Christians this way?
Director, can you answer this question?
The CCP persecutes those who believe by any means,
even depriving them of their right to life.
Even their families are not spared.
In China, belief means your whole family is implicated too.
By frantically persecuting Christians and acting out against God,
what future does this Party face?
Injustice results in demise.
And evil will be punished. (Silence!)
Jiang Xinyi, you really are uncooperative.
Aren't you afraid of going to prison?
My mom believing in God is a good thing.
Why do you want to send her to jail?
Okay. Take the child.
Xiaoxiao, don't worry about me.
Be good and listen to your dad.
Xiaoxiao. (Mom.)
Xiaoxiao!
Mom!
Xiaoxiao!
Mom!
I know you want to be virtuous by believing in God.
That's not the problem.
In China, the CCP's in charge.
You don't follow the Party.
If you keep believing in God, for whatever reason,
what did you expect would happen?
You should know that
the Communist Party detests God's work and appearance the most.
You believers receive the brunt of it.
When you witness the appearance and work of Almighty God,
spread the word of Almighty God,
isn't this defying the Communist Party?
The Communist Party's plan for Christians is extermination and eradication.
If you just believe in the vague God in heaven,
the Communist Party can turn a blind eye.
But if you keep witnessing the appearance and work of Christ in the last days,
they can't tolerate that.
The Party is most afraid of the Christ Savior's appearance and work.
When the Lord Jesus was born, Christians' Savior,
how did King Herod react to this?
Why did he order to kill all the male babies under two years in Bethlehem?
Because the King of Israel, the Savior, came.
The dynasty would change.
It was a huge event.
When you say Almighty God, Christ of the last days, appeared to do judgment work,
don't you think the Communist Party sees the severity?
You underestimate the Party.
Don't you think the Party knows religion?
They know exactly why Christ the Savior comes in the last days.
So the Communist Party wants to exterminate The Church of Almighty God, eradicate it.
Under the reign of the CCP,
you insist on witnessing for Christ.
This is an act against the Party. It's a dead end.
Don't you understand all this?
Mr. Yuan. You are so right on this subject.
That is the cause.
You do understand the history of Christianity.
When Herod heard Jews' King was born,
he ordered to kill male babies under two years in Bethlehem.
That's plain history.
When the CCP saw the Savior come, Christ of the last days, to speak and work,
it launched massive suppression and arrest campaigns,
trying to exterminate Christ, ban God's work.
It's the very same thing King Herod did.
Don't you remember what happened to him?
He died as punishment for resisting God.
Today, the Communist Party acts hostile to God.
What will happen to them?
I'm sure that you already know.
Since I have chosen to witness for Christ in the last days,
no matter what suffering or pain I encounter,
I'll keep going without hesitation.
Don't waste your time on me.
The reason we preach and witness for Christ of the last days
is so that more people gain the truth from God,
stop sinning, and receive salvation from God,
to survive the disaster of the last days and be brought to a good destination.
This is the most righteous cause.
It's the will of Heaven.
But the CCP arrests and persecutes Christians,
forbidding them from accepting Christ of the last days.
Isn't this a perverse act against Heaven?
Can any country that acts against God survive for long?
Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed by a fire cast down from God.
The Roman Empire, how did they perish?
When the Jewish nation resisted and convicted, crucified the Lord Jesus,
what was their fate then?
Those who resisted God had all met God's punishment and destruction.
That's how it is.
Don't you believe this?
The CCP so insanely resists God and persecutes His chosen people.
What awaits is God's punishment and retribution.
You—
Jiang Xinyi, you're too godized to help.
You're a hopeless case.
People like you should be locked away in prison forever.
Chief. I don't think we can get anything else from them.
Can't we turn them over to the court?
Let them sentence them to a few more years in prison, right?
What good does that do for us?
I want the Church's cash! Their funds!
And The Church of Almighty God's leaders!
That is what we need!
Sir.
Didn't you see the testimonies they wrote?
They believe that suffering in prison is for overcomers,
and they'll get into the kingdom of heaven!
Godized people,
even a hundred years locked away in jail, wouldn't change their minds.
Just send them away.
Yes, sir.
The defendant Jiang Xinyi has been found guilty
of "organization and use of cults to undermine the implementation of the law"
and hereby sentenced to twelve years in prison.
