  • November 18, 2016,

  • it was a beautiful day, a Friday,

  • a day full of hopeone worth remembering.

  • I was in a whole new place.

  • The air was cleaner, and I had never felt so carefree.

  • Oh, I forgot to introduce myself.

  • My name is Chen Xi.

  • I'm a Christian from mainland China.

  • This was my first day overseas,

  • when I finally escaped persecution by the CCP government.

  • I was finally free to worship God.

  • It was God's grace and blessing.

  • Hey, our sister is here!

  • Hi, sister.

  • Here, give me your bag! (Thank you!)

  • Come on in. (I'll take this.)

  • Chen Xi, You made it! (Hi, sister.)

  • Come. We mostly work in here. (Chen Xi, welcome!)

  • Hi! (Sister, welcome!)

  • Everything I saw that day filled me with gratitude to God.

  • I finally had the chance to come overseas,

  • to freely gather and fellowship on God's words with my brothers and sisters.

  • We could perform our duty and bear witness to God's salvation of the last days,

  • give what little we had to spread God's gospel of the kingdom,

  • and let more people in other countries hear God's voice.

  • It was so exciting to think about!

  • After a while,

  • I saw my brothers' and sisters' fellowship on God's words

  • really had enlightenment and light.

  • They shared their understanding of putting God's words into practice.

  • They could read English really well, and their pronunciation was great.

  • I really admired this about them.

  • In fact, I felt that I was lacking compared to them,

  • but I didn't want to fall behind,

  • so I quietly encouraged myself.

  • I thought: As long as I doubled my efforts, one day I'd surpass them,

  • and then, they'd admire me.

  • I would get up early every morning, before sunrise,

  • to read God's words, write in my devotional journal,

  • and study English vocabulary.

  • After my sisters would go to bed, I'd stay up late into the night.

  • Three months went by in the blink of an eye.

  • Even though I worked hard and made some progress,

  • I was still lacking in my duties, compared to my brothers and sisters.

  • When speaking English,

  • I would always express myself in the wrong way,

  • and my brothers and sisters would help correct me.

  • When discussing work, most of my suggestions were useless.

  • I thought about how I wasn't performing my duty well

  • and how my brothers and sisters had to guide me.

  • I was so embarrassed.

  • I had this frustration and pain that I couldn't put words to.

  • But the more this happened, I knew I couldn't give up.

  • The day would come when I'd stand out and gain their recognition.

  • This is Chen Xi. And this is sister Jingxin. (Hi!)

  • Hello. (Hello.)

  • Not long after, the leader arranged for me to work with a new sister.

  • I saw that she wasn't familiar with this kind of duty,

  • and her English wasn't as good as mine.

  • I could secretly rejoice:

  • I no longer felt like the worst one there.

  • Later, when the sister encountered difficulties in her duty and asked me for help,

  • I always held something back and didn't want to share too much in fellowship.

  • I was afraid she'd progress faster than me.

  • There were times when I saw she wasn't bearing any fruit in her duty

  • and she felt negative.

  • I knew I should help her out of love,

  • but I was afraid if she were successful, it wouldn't make me look as good.

  • So I was indifferent toward her.

  • But I didn't expect that

  • when she encountered difficulties, she sought the truth,

  • so when she found gaps in her knowledge,

  • she would learn from the other brothers and sisters.

  • After a couple months,

  • she gradually got the hang of the principles of performing her duty,

  • her English improved really quickly,

  • and her duty was bearing fruit.

  • That made me really scared.

  • If things kept up like that,

  • I was worried I'd be the weakest link in the group again.

  • It's understandable if I'm not as good as my brothers and sisters

  • who have been doing this for longer,

  • but she just got here.

  • What if she turns out better than me?

  • How can I hold my head up?

  • What will my brothers and sisters think of me?

  • I constantly lived in this state of struggle for name and gain.

  • I couldn't get out of it.

  • My mind was racing.

  • Spiritually, I was in darkness and pain.

  • I suffered every day.

  • I thought back to when I was doing my duty in my hometown.

  • When I discussed work with my brothers and sisters,

  • they generally agreed with my opinions,

  • and church leaders thought highly of me.

  • But now, I was falling behind in everything.

  • I didn't measure up to the others in any way.

  • It was embarrassing.

  • The more I thought about it, the more upset and wronged I felt.

  • Sometimes I would just hide in the bathroom and cry.

  • I felt like living that way was so painful and frustrating.

  • I even considered leaving and no longer performing that duty.

  • But when I had those thoughts, it made me feel even worse,

  • like my heart was breaking.

  • I couldn't walk away from my duty and betray God!

  • I remembered that I had made a vow to God

  • that I would expend myself for Him to repay His love,

  • but when I encountered setback and failure,

  • I wanted to give up on my duty.

  • Wasn't that cheating and betraying God?

  • But if I continued to perform my duty there and constantly live in pain,

  • I really wouldn't be able to take it any longer.

  • What could I do?

  • Oh God, I'm in pain,

  • but I don't want to give up my duty and betray You.

  • I want to obey Your rule and arrangements,

  • but I don't know what lessons to learn.

  • God! I beg You to enlighten and lead me to understand Your will.

  • Pondering God's words, they cut straight to the heart.

  • They revealed my exact true state.

  • Wasn't I one of those people pursuing fame and status?

  • It occurred to me that since I was young,

  • I had been poisoned by and steeped in the satanic philosophies

  • of standing out from the crowd and honoring my ancestors,

  • only seeking my own success.

  • I had always admired and adored the people with fame and status,

  • believing that only if people gain status, are looked up to, and are above others

  • do their lives have value and meaning.

  • When I was in school,

  • I studied and worked hard to become a leader among my peers.

  • When I started working,

  • I worked hard to stand out from my colleagues and be above them.

  • Looking back on the path I'd taken all those years,

  • I saw that, no matter what, I was only struggling for my own fame.

  • Name and status had thoroughly bound and controlled me,

  • becoming my belief, my goal that I relied on.

  • And even though I'd believed in and followed God for a few years,

  • since I had not gained the truth and did not have a true understanding of God,

  • my perspectives and values had not yet changed.

  • My life disposition hadn't changed at all, either.

  • In my heart,

  • I still couldn't let go of the idea of name and status, of my destiny.

  • Even when I was performing my duty, I thought of my own status constantly.

  • I always wanted to get ahead,

  • to have others look up to me.

  • When I saw that everyone around me was more capable,

  • when I couldn't show off and my desire for status was unfulfilled,

  • I became pessimistic and disappointed, weak and negative,

  • and lived in pain.

  • I even had thoughts of walking away from my duty and betraying God,

  • feeling my life lacked meaning.

  • My own status had become my shackles,

  • and it was ruling and controlling me.

  • It made me unable to seek the truth or practice the truth.

  • I didn't have true reverence or obedience for God,

  • nor did I have a heart of love for Him.

  • How could God approve of me performing my duty like that?

  • Reflecting on myself made me see clearly:

  • I had not been living out the truth in my faith;

  • I was still living in satanic philosophies.

  • How could I gain the truth with that kind of faith,

  • or gain a change in life disposition?

  • I was wrong in pursuing that goal and direction.

  • It was contrary to God's requirements for mankind.

  • Believing in God that way could not gain God's praise.

  • God's words say this:

  • From God's words,

  • I saw that when He determines a person's destination and outcome,

  • He doesn't look at their status, their qualifications,

  • how much work they've completed,

  • or how they've suffered for their faith.

  • He looks at whether they pursue the truth during the time they follow God,

  • and if they've had a change in their life disposition.

  • That's the key.

  • When I compared my own path to God's words,

  • I was ashamed.

  • I decided:

  • From then on, I would give up on status and name,

  • and pursue the truth and a change in disposition.

  • No matter my status or how others might see me,

  • I would be willing to obey God's design and arrangements

  • and fulfill my duty to satisfy God.

  • After undergoing this judgment and chastisement,

  • when working with my brothers and sisters,

  • I consciously focused on pursuing the truth and doing my own duty.

  • Whenever I started to feel like I wanted personal gain or benefit,

  • I prayed to God and asked Him to look upon me,

  • to give me faith and strength to forsake these wrong desires.

  • After doing this for a while, I experienced some changes.

  • But because I was so corrupted by Satan,

  • the desire for fame and status was already my mortal weakness.

  • I couldn't change after just one or two times of judgment.

  • God set up environments to expose me, judge me,

  • and transform me so that He could purify me.

  • Hi, welcome! (Hi. Hi!)

  • Six months later two sisters joined our group,

  • and they were really capable.

  • Our leader arranged for them to give guidance to the other brothers and sisters.

  • Every time I saw people listening to those sisters' fellowship,

  • earnestly taking notes,

  • I felt so much envy.

  • I thought:

  • They're able to lead others.

  • Why don't I have that ability?

  • My work is mostly menial tasks that don't require much skill.

  • I'm just doing odd jobs.

  • Before I knew it, I had developed jealousy toward them.

  • One morning when they were going out to perform their duty,

  • I watched them get ready to leave,

  • and I felt really uneasy.

  • I thought: "We perform our duty together,

  • and if you don't let me go that's fine,

  • but you could at least talk to me.

  • Just a word here or there would be okay.

  • You two don't think much of me.

  • You don't seem to see me at all."

  • The more I thought about it, the more upset I became.

  • Unknowingly, I was struggling for fame all over again.

  • I couldn't reach God when I prayed, and I didn't have energy in work.

  • I couldn't interact with my brothers and sisters normally.

  • I started to feel resentful.

  • I would get a chip on my shoulder over the smallest things.

  • Even if they asked me to do something trivial like close a window,

  • it made me angry.

  • I wasn't at ease. I wanted to ask them:

  • Are you more capable than me?

  • Oh, if that's so, you think you can boss me around?

  • Chen Xi

  • Sometimes when they asked me something

  • I would pretend I hadn't heard them and wouldn't respond.

  • And sometimes when I would respond, it wasn't nicely.

  • Even though I knew I was falling back into the web of name and status

  • and fooled by Satan,

  • I didn't have the strength to grow past this corrupt disposition.

  • In the midst of darkness and pain, I prayed to God.

  • Oh God,

  • I know You detest the pursuit of name and status,

  • but I can't control it.

  • I'm so weak right now, and I'm really suffering.

  • God, I really want to let go of this,

  • and no longer be controlled by Satan.

  • God, please save me.

  • The next day, when the church leaders asked us

  • if we were facing any difficulties,

  • I opened up about my own problems.

  • Chen Xi just told us

  • how she's bound by name and status and is suffering. (Yeah.)

  • You know, this isn't only her issue.

  • Each of us will frequently reveal this corrupt disposition performing our duty.

  • That's the truth.

  • It's our greatest barrier in pursuing the truth in our duty.

  • So how do we resolve this problem?

  • First, we must see its essence and the dangers of pursuing these things.

  • Let's watch a video about God's words on these problems.

  • Okay. Yes. Thanks be to God.

  • Amen. Thanks be to God. Wow, that's really great.

  • Thank God. That was the whole video.

  • God's words have revealed to us

  • the essence of mankind pursuing fame and status.

  • Of course. They have.

  • It lets us clearly see

  • that fame and status are shackles Satan puts on mankind,

  • and that fame and status are a poison Satan puts in people's souls.

  • Yeah.

  • Think back to when we were young and learned of atheism and materialism.

  • Even in school,

  • teachers encouraged us to study the ideas of famous or great people,

  • such as "We should strive to make a name for ourselves"

  • and "Strive to be better than others."

  • What else is there?

  • "In order to succeed, you must suffer."

  • I heard "Man moves toward higher places."

  • We've heard them all.

  • The government would build up and publicize successful people as heroes,

  • hoping we would learn from them and imitate them.

  • We embraced this way of satanic education,

  • meaning since then, name and status took root in our souls.

  • Yeah. That's right.

  • We wanted to stand out and be better than others,

  • and we tried to make a happy life from our own knowledge and abilities.

  • That's right. Indeed.

  • This has led to people stopping at nothing in pursuing fame,

  • even leading to murder, and all other types of sin.

  • Satan has indoctrinated man with the idea of fame,

  • and it has deceived and corrupted mankind.

  • Have you all experienced this?

  • Yeah. Of course. I have. Yeah, she's right.

  • Actually, aspirations aren't bad.

  • However, you must have the right ideals and follow the right path.

  • Pursuing fame and status is always wrong.

  • Right. Of course.

  • Satan uses many ways to indoctrinate people

  • with its laws of thinking and survival,

  • enticing people to seek fame and gain.

  • This is so that they will serve Satan.

  • The moment they fall into this web, they begin to sin,

  • greedily enjoying its joys and utterly unable to escape it.

  • Then they no longer seek and rely upon God;

  • what's more, they deny His existence.

  • They only pursue fame and fortune,

  • and can't help but devote themselves to Satan.

  • The consequence is they become firmly controlled by Satan.

  • The pursuit of both fame and status is a heavy shackle that Satan has put onto mankind;

  • it's one of Satan's many tricks to corrupt people.

  • These satanic thoughts and logic

  • are entirely contrary to God's will in creating mankind,

  • and they are completely opposed to God's words and the truth.

  • They're all heresies and fallacies that deny, resist, and betray God.

  • Indeed.

  • The facts reveal

  • mankind's pursuit of fame and status comes from Satan's deception,

  • and hidden within are Satan's trickery and evil intentions!

  • Definitely trickery. It's true.

  • Seems like it's all Satan's trickery! Yup.

  • Brothers and sisters,

  • in order to cast off the bonds of fame and status,

  • we must first look at some things.

  • What are the consequences and dangers of Satan using fame and status to deceive people?

  • When we pursue these things, what kind of path is it?

  • Is it in line with God's will?

  • We can only leave fame and status behind

  • if we have discernment and can see through it.

  • Yeah. That's right.

  • We all clearly see

  • ever since man was corrupted by Satan,

  • everyone has struggled for fame.

  • They act badly and fight,

  • just for the sake of their name, for status. (Right.)

  • They'll stop at nothing to achieve their goals.

  • Friends will even sell each other out.

  • Fathers and sons will murder each other for a throne.

  • The list of these goes on.

  • Yes. It's true. It is.

  • People would do anything for fame and fortune.

  • It's scary, right?

  • These facts show that people have been so corrupted by Satan,

  • they worship power and status, and all have satanic desires.

  • Isn't this the nature of Satan?

  • It is. Yes, it is.

  • This satanic nature causes people to doggedly pursue fame and status,

  • to throw everything else away,

  • and even to reject the truth and become an enemy to God.

  • As the gospel of kingdom enlarged,

  • we have all observed this fact:

  • When many religious pastors and elders heard of Almighty God's appearance and work,

  • they failed to seek the truth;

  • they failed to hear God's voice and to investigate the true way.

  • Furthermore, in order to protect their own names and status,

  • they condemned the work of God with impunity.

  • They spread the Chinese Communist demons' rumors and lies

  • and even snatched away God's sheep as if they were their own sheep.

  • They resist God's appearance and work

  • and are enemies of Christ of the last days.

  • They are antichrists revealed by God's work in the last days!

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

  • Could God count such an enemy as one without sin?

  • Can they be raptured into the kingdom of heaven?

  • No. They can't!

  • Could they possibly not be enemies of the truth and of God in the kingdom of heaven?

  • No. They can't.

  • Why do people seek fame and status, even valuing them above all else?

  • People's satanic nature and disposition.

  • That's true.

  • The more they pursue these things,

  • the more arrogant, evil, and perverse they become.

  • They lose their humanity and all reason.

  • They struggle with God over His chosen people,

  • directly attacking and blaspheming God and becoming His enemy.

  • Just as in God's words:

  • We now should all grasp that fame and status

  • are evil means for Satan to corrupt and harm people,

  • and to swallow them up.

  • Satan uses them to lure people onto the path of death and of hell.

  • All who pursue fame and status will in time become antichrists

  • and be exposed and cast out.

  • Yeah.

  • If those of us who believe in God don't pursue the truth

  • and fail to see the essence of fame and status,

  • and stubbornly cling to them,

  • it is equivalent to giving up on our chance at salvation

  • and throwing ourselves into the fires of hell.

  • Isn't this just so blind and foolish?

  • Yes, it is. Of course it is.

  • After listening to God's words and my sisters' fellowship,

  • I started to clearly see the essence of fame and status.

  • They are entrapments Satan uses to deceive and corrupt people;

  • they are shackles Satan places on people to bind and control them.

  • In their pursuit of these things,

  • people become increasingly arrogant

  • and find it difficult to accept the truth.

  • They will do all kinds of evil and resist God to vie for power and status.

  • In the end they will be punished and destroyed for this.

  • It's clear that those who pursue and adore status are demons of Satan!

  • I realized that in my few years of belief in God,

  • I hadn't diligently pursued the truth or faithfully performed my duty.

  • Instead, I single-mindedly pursued status

  • and constantly competed with brothers and sisters.

  • When I prevailed over them I was happy,

  • and when I couldn't match up I was negative.

  • When I saw that someone was rising,

  • I became jealous and couldn't accept it.

  • I would become biased against them and create conflict.

  • I would torture myself to the point that I was completely depleted and in great pain.

  • In my faith I had not pursued the truth.

  • I hadn't applied myself to practicing God's words and experiencing them.

  • I had just pursued fame and status.

  • Isn't this one of Satan's afflictions?

  • Wasn't I taking the antichrist's path of believing in God while also resisting Him?

  • Now I really regret it.

  • Why didn't I pursue the truth?

  • Why did I instead cling to status?

  • This not only evokes disgust and hatred in God,

  • but led me to make many transgressions as well.

  • On top of holding myself back,

  • I impacted other people's growth in life.

  • I really am possessed by this!

  • If I were to never pursue the truth or do my work honestly,

  • I would certainly be corrupted, harmed, and swallowed whole by Satan!

  • This is how pitiful those who don't understand the truth are!

  • Thank God!

  • Because of your fellowship, I can now see this clearly.

  • Satan uses fortune and fame to corrupt people, (It's true.)

  • to have people pursue these things,

  • stray from God, rebel against and resist God, and be destroyed by Him.

  • This kind of pursuit is terribly dangerous!

  • That's right. True.

  • So how can this problem be resolved?

  • Thanks to God!

  • As for how to resolve pursuing fame and status and cast off Satan's influence,

  • we not only need to see

  • that they are negative things that Satan uses to corrupt man,

  • that they truly resist God and must be removed from our hearts,

  • we also must seek the truth from God's words,

  • discover His requirements of us,

  • how we should go about being in line with God's will,

  • and what path we should take in our faith to be saved and perfected.

  • Let's read some of God's words!

  • Okay! Yeah.

  • Amen.

  • Thanks to God!

  • Chen Xi, would you like to read?

  • Yes, thank you.

  • Amen. (Thank God!)

  • In God's words, the meaning of His work of judgment

  • and the path we should take to be successful in our faith

  • are clearly set out for us.

  • We can see this is God's love.

  • Thank God!

  • Having experienced years of God's work, we've seen:

  • He speaks truth and performs judgment in the last days,

  • to reveal and judge the satanic nature of corrupt mankind's resistance to God,

  • and through this have us know His righteous and holy disposition,

  • which doesn't tolerate mankind's offenses.

  • It's to purify mankind's corrupt disposition and remove Satan's poisons,

  • so we may all love and revere and obey God.

  • This is His will, and it's the aim of His work.

  • We have all learned through experience

  • that God loves those people who pursue the truth.

  • So what of those who are saved?

  • They pursue the truth as well. (Yes!)

  • When we pursue the truth and accept God's judgment and chastisement,

  • we'll gain the Holy Spirit's work,

  • we'll understand the truth.

  • In time our corrupt dispositions will be purified,

  • and we'll have continual growth in our lives.

  • On the other hand,

  • when people pursue status instead of pursuing truth,

  • it's hard to gain the Holy Spirit's work,

  • then their satanic dispositions can't be changed.

  • If people stubbornly pursue status and are unrepentant in their antichrist path,

  • they will end up being eliminated.

  • Yes.

  • We've seen quite a few of these people who fail in their faith, haven't we? (Yeah.)

  • What can we see from all of this?

  • We can see that God's disposition is righteous and holy.

  • We can see who God loves and who it is He hates,

  • who He saves and who He eliminates.

  • It's clear that

  • pursuing the truth and choosing the right path in our faith is critical.

  • It determines if we succeed or fail in our faith in God!

  • That's right. That's so true.

  • Thanks be to God. We must be vigilant in pursuing truth. Yeah, I think that's really true.

  • Thank God!

  • Because of what's been unveiled in God's words,

  • we all better understand Paul's path of failure and Peter's path of success

  • within their faith.

  • That's right.

  • As for Paul's faith,

  • he didn't seek truth or accept God's judgment and chastisement.

  • He focused on attaining fame and having people adore him.

  • In the letters he wrote,

  • he always emphasized how much he had suffered,

  • how much work he had performed,

  • and how much of a price he had paid.

  • He even declared that he was no less than the other apostles.

  • True.

  • Even though Paul was adored and followed by quite a few people,

  • since he didn't pursue the truth,

  • in the end, his arrogant and satanic nature was exposed.

  • He bore witness, comparing himself to Christ,

  • and attempted to take the Lord Jesus' place in people's hearts.

  • As a result,

  • for two thousand years, many believers adored him and so followed him.

  • Thus, he led people onto the wrong path of resisting God.

  • This was a direct offense to God's disposition.

  • Peter, however, pursued truth;

  • he accepted God's chastisement and refinement, trials and judgment.

  • He gave no thought to his relative status or to how people regarded him.

  • He focused on seeking the truth, resolving his corruption,

  • on whether his life disposition had changed,

  • on whether he had a true understanding of God and pure love.

  • Because of his pursuit, Peter was perfected by God.

  • He became the person who best understood God,

  • gaining God's blessings and God's approval.

  • The facts clearly show

  • we must seek truth and accept God's judgment and chastisement in our faith.

  • It's Peter's path of pursuing the truth;

  • that is the sole way to cast off the influence of Satan,

  • gain God's salvation, and be perfected.

  • Amen!

  • This fellowship has been so good, right? (It is.)

  • After listening to God's words and my sisters' fellowship,

  • I understood God's will and His requirements.

  • I had a path of practice for casting off the bonds of fame and status.

  • On my path, I must accept the judgment and chastisement of God's words.

  • This is the only way to know my satanic nature of being inclined to seek status,

  • and to perceive the truth of my own corruption.

  • Only then can I choose the right path of pursuing the truth,

  • enter into the right track of belief, and be saved by God!

  • God's will became more clear to me after I read His words.

  • God is the Lord of creation,

  • and I am nothing but one tiny creature.

  • In God's eyes I am less than a speck of dust,

  • and I have been deeply corrupted by Satan and am full of satanic dispositions.

  • I have a nature of resisting God,

  • and what I live out is nothing but Satan's demonic disposition.

  • I am arrogant, deceitful, selfish,

  • and I don't have any semblance of a true human being.

  • How could I be worthy of being looked up to or admired by others?

  • God is the Lord of creation,

  • and only He is worthy of mankind's admiration and worship.

  • I used to be so blind, so ignorant.

  • I didn't know myself at all, and I certainly did not know God.

  • I possessed no human conscience or reason.

  • From God's words, I also understood

  • that all people are creatures within God's hands;

  • no one is better or worse, more or less precious.

  • God has given each person a different mission,

  • so He has given each of us a unique caliber.

  • The caliber and stature that I possess is pre-ordained by God.

  • What role I play in performing my duty,

  • what I can offer, is also pre-ordained by God.

  • God's only requirement is that we know our place and do our duty well,

  • that we diligently pursue the truth and a change in disposition to be saved by God.

  • Then, God's will is satisfied.

  • After recognizing all of this,

  • I experienced God's kind intentions, and I was able to understand God.

  • God arranged for me to perform my duty in this kind of environment

  • because it was what I required for growth in my life.

  • It was the best way for Him to purify and transform me.

  • Genuine gratitude and praise for God just naturally sprung up in my heart:

  • Oh God!

  • Encountering this environment was what You specifically arranged

  • so I could be purified and transformed.

  • It was salvation for me.
