We saw the couplet adorning your doorway, so we knew you also believe in the Lord. We knocked on your door, hoping to fellowship with you. Yes. I understand now. Please come in! Good. Thank God! Sister, Brother, we have a question that we would like to discuss with you. Oh, what is the question? All of us who believe in the Lord are waiting for Him to return. We've waited till today and haven't seen the Lord descend on a cloud. There are worse disasters these days, and nearly all of the prophecies concerning the Lord's return have come true. Many people feel that the Lord should have already returned. Why, then, have we still not welcomed the Lord back to us? Could it be that the Lord has already appeared and is somehow working, without our knowledge? How do you feel about these things? The Lord appeared somewhere and is at work? But that's impossible! The Lord in the last days will descend in great glory upon a cloud for all to see. This is what Lord Jesus said. Yes. We haven't seen the Lord arrive on a cloud just yet, so how can you say the Lord has returned? I think that by taking His time to descend on a cloud, the Lord is trying us and testing our confidence. If we cling to the name of the Lord and hold fast to His way, regardless of what adversity we meet, if we persist in spreading the gospel, when the Lord does come, He will take us up into the kingdom of heaven. That is what we think. Sister, now everyone expects the Lord to descend upon a cloud. This agrees with the Lord's words. But the Lord's prophecy of His return in the last days does not only refer to this aspect. The Lord also prophesied: Amen! If the Lord returns in the last days, descending directly on a cloud, how do you explain those prophecies, and how exactly do they come true? There are many prophecies about the Lord's return. We can't be certain about the method of the Lord's return based on one utterance of the Lord. Can you agree with that? Yes, that makes sense. In these passages of scripture, the Lord Jesus mentioned "at midnight there was a cry made" and also "as a thief." From those passages we can conclude, that during the darkest hour, when there is no sign, the Lord will come quietly. The Lord's coming isn't something everyone will know about. Only a few people will know about His coming, and announce the good news of the Lord's arrival to others "at midnight." This explanation of yours is so clear. I thank God! When the churches are universally desolate, without the work of the Holy Spirit, when believers are most bogged down, someone may bear witness of the Lord's return. Revelation also says: Amen! That means that everyone who welcomes the Lord should focus on hearing the voice of the Lord, and seek out what the Holy Spirit is saying to the churches. This is key. If a particular church has the voice and words of the Holy Spirit, could this be the appearance of God, the work of God? If we see the utterances of the Holy Spirit, is this not hearing the voice of God, is it not welcoming the Lord's arrival? That's the only way we can sit with the Lord at the banquet! Do you think the things that I've told you are correct? Yes I do! This has been very enlightening, I think you're right! (Great!) Yes. We've read the word of the Lord many times before in fact, but never saw the light in it. Hearing this fellowship of yours today has really opened my heart. Thank God! In regard to welcoming the Lord's return, we really must seek out the words of the Holy Spirit for the churches. We've come today to share with you the words that the Holy Spirit has for the churches. I invite you to listen. If you're able to hear the voice of God in these words, you ought to learn more about the true way. Words spoken by the Holy Spirit? Please, go ahead. (Sure.) Okay. I'll start by reading a couple of passages to you. Good. These words are profound. I feel they are inspired by the Holy Spirit. Yes. Thank God! I will read another passage to you, then. Great! The words explain so clearly how to look for God when He appears. Yes, these words aren't the words of an ordinary person. Surely they were inspired by the Holy Spirit. Thank God! I will read another passage. Good! God has reappeared in the flesh? That's impossible! The pastor often tells us that anyone who preaches that the Lord has returned in human flesh is just lying. The Lord Jesus said that He would return the same way He left. He ascended to heaven on a cloud as a resurrected spiritual body. The Lord will most certainly descend on a cloud in the same form. Everyone will be able to see it, so there's no need for bearing witness. I see it now! You're followers of Almighty God. You're preaching Eastern Lightning! I've heard enough. Please leave! Sisters, this discussion was enlightening, but, as the pastor often reminds us anyone who testifies that God has appeared in human form is lying. Welcoming the Lord is important. We must consider this further, if another chance comes, we'll talk more. Sister Yang, Brother Zheng, we must base our belief on what the Lord says. Why do you always believe what the pastor tells you? Are you aware that the Pharisees once condemned the Lord Jesus? Have you read the words that the Lord Jesus said, cursing the Pharisees? The pastor may tell you that whoever preaches that God has returned in the flesh is a liar. But that isn't in the Bible. Did the Lord Jesus ever say that? That the Lord would return as the Son of man in the last days, does have a biblical foundation. (Yes.) The Lord Jesus said, In the last days, the Lord Jesus' spiritual body will come on a cloud. To come in the flesh would be impossible! Please leave, we have nothing more to discuss! Sister, just let us read a few more passages to you. When you hear it, you'll understand. We have no way to know if these words are the Holy Spirit's words for the churches. We've had enough of your preaching. Go away! Perhaps we'll continue this discussion later. All right. We'll drop by again some time. Hello. Hello, Aiguang. (I see you're keeping busy.) Yes. Pastor Jia. Hey, it's Sister Yang. Hi, Sister Yang. Brother Wu is here, too. You're watering the vegetables. (Yes, watering the vegetables.) Have a seat. Thank you. Here you go, have some water. Thank you so much. Pastor Jia, (Yes.) this morning some people came to my house preaching Eastern Lightning. I sent them away. But afterward, I was a little bothered by it. Oh? For years, we've taken precautions against Eastern Lightning, but we hadn't had contact with their people until today. Their testimony of the Lord's return is compatible with the Bible prophecy. Much of what they said made sense. Pastor Jia, shouldn't we also be trying to listen for the voice of the Lord? I think, if the Holy Spirit is trying to speak to us, it is wrong of us not to listen. It is absolutely necessary to hear the words of the Holy Spirit. If Eastern Lightning really is the work of the Lord, and we refuse to listen, won't we miss the Lord's return? Pastor Jia, tell me, am I wrong? Sister Yang, you have been a preacher for the Lord for many years, and you understand the Bible. How can you be deceived by a few phrases spoken to you by these people?
