and performed judgment beginning from the house of God. (Correct.)

But this exceeds what's in the Bible.

In the Bible, God's salvation is complete.

God would not speak and work outside of the Bible!

Is it based on the words of the Lord Jesus?

Are you sure it conforms with the truth?

Straying from the Bible is the same as leaving the Lord's way.

It's betraying Him.

If a person is arrogant and does not pursue the truth,

it's easy for them to resist God!

I'd like to hear what else you have to say!

Here, drink some water.

What's going on?

I was thinking,

I've believed in the Lord for years, but the way I've treated His return …

I have never actually sought the Lord's intentions.

I keep living in my own imaginations,

foolishly waiting for the Lord to descend with the clouds

and take me into the kingdom of heaven.

Though people have shared the testimonies of Almighty God's work for years,

I was stubborn and refused to listen to Lord's voice and denied His return.

And now I think I am far too arrogant.

How am I any different from those Pharisees who resisted the Lord Jesus?

That is indeed so!

People from the Church of Almighty God

have for many years now testified the Lord's return.

Why didn't we go look into it?

Yes.

Thinking back, we were extremely arrogant and conceited.

Foolish, too!

Yes, indeed!

Finally, I understand:

We all want to welcome the Lord's arrival and enter the kingdom of heaven,

but few focus on listening for the Lord's voice

or seeking out the appearance and work of the Lord. (Yes!)

This is our biggest mistake in belief and our disobedience!

I agree.

If the preachers from the Church of Almighty God

did not communicate earnestly with all,

who among us would have been able to recognize God's voice

or see God's appearance?

Thank the Lord!

We must really communicate with them at our meeting today!

OK! Let's truly listen.

Brother Li, (Yes.)

these past days, we've heard Almighty God's words and all gained a lot.

We believe the words of Almighty God are truth! (Yes.)

Praise God!

However, there are still some things we don't understand.

Please communicate with us more.

Sure. Tell me what they are and we'll start.

Great!

It's like this.

You've testified the incarnate Almighty God has expressed millions of words

and performed judgment beginning from the house of God.

Correct.

But this exceeds what's in the Bible.

Yeah!

You see, our pastors and leaders would often tell us

God's words and work are all in the Bible.

There are no words and work of God outside it.

Amen!

The Lord Jesus' salvation work is done.

In the last days, He'll return to take believers to the kingdom of heaven.

Amen!

We've always believed belief in the Lord must be based on the Bible.

If we stick to the Bible, we'll enter the kingdom of heaven.

Amen!

But from the look of things, our viewpoint seems to be wrong.

Huh? How is it wrong?

Yeah!

Yet we can't see through this,

and so please communicate with us more.

Ah! OK!

Ah, allow me to speak.

Brothers and sisters, our viewpoint can't be wrong! (That's right! Amen!)

All God's words and work are within the Bible. (That's right! Yeah.)

God would not speak and work outside of the Bible! (Amen!)

Our belief in the Lord has always been based on the Bible. (Amen!)

Straying from the Bible is the same as leaving the Lord's way.

It's betraying Him.

All pastors and elders think this is so.

What could be wrong with that?

Right!

In the Bible, God's salvation is complete. (Amen!)

That is why we must never stray from it.

Brothers and sisters, if we hold to the Bible,

when the Lord comes, we'll enter the kingdom of heaven! (Amen!)

We must be confident. (Yes. That's right!)

I'd like to hear what else you have to say!

All believers think the Bible contains all of God's words and His work.

God's salvation is complete, so none of God's words and work are outside of it.

Belief in the Lord is holding fast to the Bible.

If we don't leave the Bible, the Lord will take us to the kingdom of heaven.

Such a viewpoint might conform with man's notions,

but is it based on the words of the Lord Jesus?

Are you sure it conforms with the truth?

The Lord Jesus never said all God's words and work are within the Bible,

nor that none of God's words and His work are outside of it.

Yes.

Those who understand the Bible

know that it was put together by mankind many years after God's work.

God's work came first, and then came the Bible.

That's right. Yes.

That's true!

In other words, each time God completed a stage of His work,

those who experienced God's work

would record God's words and work from that time,

and these records were then compiled by people into the Bible.

Now think about it,

how could work that God has not yet done be compiled into the Bible in advance?

God's judgment work of the last days couldn't possibly be recorded in the Bible.

Yes.

The Bible has existed for nearly 2,000 years.

Almighty God just started judgment of the last days.

Therefore,

the words and work of God in the last days

couldn't possibly be recorded in the Bible. (Yes!)

Isn't that a fact?

Indeed! That is so true.

In the last days, Almighty God's begun judgment from the house of God,

expressing several million words.

These words are all truths that purify and save mankind,

and are the way of eternal life brought by Christ of the last days.

Yes.

They're in the Bible of the Age of Kingdom.

This is the book,

Though the truths Almighty God expressed aren't in the Bible,

they've fulfilled the Lord Jesus' prophecies.

Open please to John 16:12 through 13 and Revelation 2:17.

Who wants to read?

Allow me.

Amen!

Amen!

The truth expressed by Almighty God

shows that Almighty God is the embodiment of the Spirit of truth

and that He's the incarnate God. (Yes.)

Almighty God's words are the expression of the Spirit of truth in the last days,

the words from the Holy Spirit to the churches.

Amen!

Do any dare say these are not God's words?

Do any still deny this?

If one sees God's words and work in the last days,

would they still say all God's words are within the Bible,

there're no words and work of God outside it?

No, we can't say that.

That's right!

People don't know how the Bible was formed.

They don't know that it was formed after God completed each stage of His work,

and yet they arbitrarily conclude

that there are no words and work of God outside the Bible.

Aren't these people absurd and arbitrary? (Yeah!)

Yes, the Bible was compiled by man after God had completed His work.

How could the work of God in the last days appear in the Bible in advance?

Yeah. We've believed for years; how come we couldn't see this?

We're really ignorant!

Indeed!

Brothers and sisters, if we don't understand how the Bible was formed,

it is easy to deviate on the path to believing in God.

Yes!

During the two stages of God's work in the Age of Law and the Age of Grace,

all the words expressed by God weren't completely recorded in the Bible.

For instance, in the Age of Law,

there were some prophets whose prophecies aren't in the Bible.

This is a fact that many brothers and sisters know about. (Yes.)

Some prophecies of Ezra weren't recorded in the Bible.

In the Age of Grace, there were more words spoken by the Lord Jesus.

But the words recorded in the Bible are limited.

The Lord Jesus had preached on earth for three-and-a-half years.

How many words would He have spoken during each day? (Yeah!)

There were many sermons and words spoken by the Lord Jesus

in those three-and-a-half years.

There's no way anyone could calculate it.

Yes. I agree.

Just as John the apostle said,

Amen!

Let's look at the Four New Testament Gospels.

The words of the Lord Jesus in these are limited!

They are only the tip of the iceberg!

Yeah!

If the Lord Jesus had only said what was recorded in these in those years,

how would He have been able to conquer the people who followed Him then?

How could the Lord Jesus' work have shaken up all of Judea?

Yes.

Therefore, the words of God recorded in the Bible contain a limited portion,

certainly not all the words God spoke during His work.

This is a fact no one is able to deny! (Yes.)

We all know God's the Lord of creation, (Amen!)

the source of mankind's life, (Amen!)

the wellspring of living water that never runs dry. (Amen!)

God's richness is inexhaustible and always there, (Amen!)

whereas the Bible is merely a record of the first two stages of God's work.

What's recorded of God's words is limited.

It is like a mere drop in the sea of God's life.

Amen!

How can we limit God's words and work to just the Bible?

As if God could just say those limited words in the Bible.

Isn't this delimiting, belittling, and blasphemy to God? (Yes!)

Therefore, to delimit all God's words and work to the Bible,

and to think there are no words and work of God outside the Bible

is a major mistake!

That's right!

And now, let's read a few passages of Almighty God's words

to better see this aspect of the truth.

OK!

Great.

Amen!

Almighty God's words are indeed truth!

As I listen, I feel enlightened!

Yeah, praise the Lord!

God is the source of man's life, the ever-flowing wellspring of living water.

God's words can't be exhausted!

Yeah, that's right. It's true.

How could God's words be limited to just those in the Bible? (Yeah!)

We were foolish and blind and didn't know God.

We've believed for years, yet don't understand any truth,

even limiting God's words and work to the Bible,

as though what's recorded in the Bible were all of God's word and work.

This is indeed belittling and blaspheming God!

Yes, that's true.

That's indeed so!

If a person is arrogant and does not pursue the truth and lacks fear of God,

it's easy for them to resist God!

Absolutely! Indeed!
