  • The Lord is knocking at the door,

  • but how will He knock?

  • How is the Lord going to knock on the door?

  • Who is it?

  • Hello, Sister!

  • Hello! Sister.

  • Who are you?

  • We're people of faith.

  • 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?

  • The Lord Jesus clearly stated:

  • When the Lord comes, He will descend on a cloud,

  • with a completely impressive display of power.

  • Heaven will shake, people wail!

  • If this spectacle ever took place, many people would be certain to see it;

  • there'd be immediate excitement.

  • If the Lord really has already come,

  • how is it that this sort of spectacle has not appeared?

  • Why have we not been raptured?

  • Precisely!

  • Therefore, Eastern Lightning claims the Lord has returned.

  • But how is that even possible?

  • I dare say that any Lord Jesus who doesn't descend on a cloud is a fake.

  • Any witness that God has assumed human form and is somehow at work

  • is heresy and falsehood.

  • Right.

  • Sister Yang,

  • our wait for the Lord is based on Bible prophecy

  • and the words of the Lord.

  • Even if Eastern Lightning's preaching seems profound or syncs up with the Bible,

  • we cannot listen to it and cannot believe it.

  • If you persist in listening and hear them out,

  • you will be misled,

  • and by then, there will be no way to buy the potion of repentance.

  • All we have to do is cling to the Lord's name,

  • uphold the way of the Lord,

  • and persist a little longer, be a little more patient.

  • Then, the Lord will descend on a cloud and receive us into the kingdom of heaven!

  • We must have confidence in that.

  • As usual, Pastor Jia is right.

  • Thank the Lord!

  • Tell me, if you hadn't come,

  • would you have been able to understand this matter?

  • The pastor is the pastor.

  • You wouldn't want to ignore him.

  • The pastor is able to serve the Lord, can we serve the Lord?

  • We don't even know how to wait for the Lord's return.

  • So you shouldn't take his advice for granted.

  • If you don't commit the words of the pastor to memory,

  • and then some day you're deceived by Eastern Lightning,

  • won't you have wasted all the years you spent trying to serve the Lord?

  • Sister Yang,

  • if the Eastern Lightning people come knocking again,

  • whatever you do, don't open the door for them.

  • If you do, and you hear any more of Almighty God's words …

  • As I see it, all sects and factions have some pious people.

  • Sister Yang and her husband are good natured,

  • and truly believe in the Lord.

  • They're of good caliber,

  • and they do understand God's word somewhat. (Yes.)

  • They've just been led astray by religious conceptions.

  • Next time we go over there to visit,

  • we'll read Almighty God's words that address these false conceptions.

  • If they are able to accept truth, then these conceptions will be cleared up. (Right.)

  • Hopefully, that will help them accept God's work in the last days.

  • Yeah, I hope so.

  • God's sheep hear the voice of God.

  • Yes.

  • The hardest thing about people stuck in a religion

  • is that they have too many preconceived notions.

  • The saddest thing is that they revere the pastors and elders,

  • so they have no room in their hearts for God.

  • In everything, the pastor has the last word.

  • It's a big problem, and it's serious.

  • How can they welcome the return of the Lord going on this way? (Right.)

  • All we can do for Sister Yang and her husband is to commune

  • and bear witness of the words of Almighty God.

  • As long as they understand the truth,

  • then their false notions will be corrected. (Yes.)

  • Nowadays the Chinese government assigns scouts in various towns and villages

  • to keep an eye on believers.

  • I know. That's true.

  • Sister Yang is a well-known believer,

  • and the CCP is likely watching her home.

  • Up ahead, when we get close to her place, we have to keep an eye out

  • and check for spies before we knock on the door. (Yes.)

  • We should really be careful.

  • Who's there?

  • Hello!

  • Who are you?

  • We are believers in the Lord.

  • Is Sister Yang home?

  • Oh, my mother and father went to work in the vineyard.

  • Why not sit for a moment inside, and I'll go call them?

  • Thank you, but …

  • would you take us to the vineyard instead?

  • Okay, let's go.

  • Thank you.

  • Father, Mother,

  • these sisters are here to see you.

  • They came back.

  • Yeah, they sure are confident, aren't they?

  • Sister Yang, Brother Zheng, how are you?

  • Hello!

  • You came back.

  • Why have you come back?

  • Though your preaching does fit with the things in the Bible,

  • I'm sorry,

  • but our pastor teaches us

  • that when the Lord comes, He'll descend on a cloud,

  • and can't be incarnated in the flesh.

  • This proves that the two of you are both wrong,

  • since the pastor has clearly told us so.

  • You had better leave.

  • Sister Yang,

  • why do you not believe the word of the Lord in your faith?

  • Why do you always believe what the pastor tells you?

  • Does the pastor really know the Lord?

  • Can the words of the pastor represent the words of the Lord?

  • No.

  • Think of when the Lord Jesus began His work.

  • How did the chief priests, scribes, and Pharisees of the Jewish faith resist the Lord?

  • Does this issue not warrant our deep thought and soul-searching?

  • Yes.

  • This …

  • Aiguang, the sisters have come from far away.

  • If there are questions,

  • let's go to the edge of the vineyard and chat.

  • We should go.

  • Why don't we go beside the brook, where it's cooler.

  • Yes, good. Let's go.

  • Let's sit here.

  • Oh, yes.

  • This is a pleasant spot. (Yes.)

  • It's fresh and cool beside the stream. (Yes.)

  • When we're working in the fields, we often come here to rest.

  • Have a seat. (Okay.)

  • Sister Yang,

  • earlier you mentioned that the pastor said

  • that the Lord couldn't become flesh again.

  • In that case, would you say the pastor's words are based on the Bible?

  • Do any of the Lord's words prove this?

  • There are very clear prophecies in the Bible

  • about the Lord appearing in the flesh and working in the last days. (Yes.)

  • Both of these prophecies mention "the coming of the Son of man."

  • Every mention of "the Son of man" refers to God incarnate as the Son of man.

  • If this is the resurrected spiritual body of the Lord Jesus,

  • at times hidden, at times supernatural,

  • can this be called "the Son of man"?

  • Could "first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation"

  • still be said of Him?

  • Right, He wouldn't suffer hardship and be rejected.

  • That's right. Of course He couldn't!

  • Therefore, the Lord in the last days does come in a human form.

  • Can you accept this kind of communion?

  • This communion does match the words of the Lord.

  • Thank God!

  • Sister, the prophecy that God in the last days would appear in the flesh has come true.

  • If we don't believe that the Lord's words have come true,

  • wouldn't that be dangerous?

  • Consider how, when the Pharisees saw that the Lord had come,

  • they didn't acknowledge Him,

  • and even resisted and condemned Him.

  • And what was the result in the end?

  • Ultimately they met with the curses of the Lord.

  • If we believe in God like the Pharisees did,

  • not acknowledging God when He came, and even condemning and resisting Him,

  • what might the final result be?

  • Isn't our belief in the Lord because we long for His arrival?

  • Isn't it for the sake of welcoming Him?

  • Whether or not we get into the kingdom of heaven in our belief in the Lord

  • is determined by whether or not we can accept the Lord's work in the last days.

  • Now, the Lord has returned

  • and is doing the work of judgment starting with God's house.

  • Yet we do not acknowledge this;

  • instead we deny it and don't accept it.

  • Isn't this missing the chance to be raptured when the Lord comes?

  • If the Lord comes, and we aren't able to be raptured,

  • what would the final outcome be?

  • Wouldn't it be abandonment and elimination?

  • We must carefully think these things over.

  • Is this question really serious?

  • This communion of yours goes against everything the pastor has taught us.

  • Are you able to explain all these things thoroughly?

  • Mhm. Yeah.

  • Today, many religious people obey only the pastors.

  • They believe Lord Jesus must descend on a cloud, or he's a fake,

  • and that the return of the Lord can't be in the flesh.

  • And what is the question here?

  • Can we say for sure how the Lord in the last days appears to us and works?

  • God said in the Bible:

  • Amen.

  • In God's eyes we are nothing but dust.

  • How could we be able to fathom God's work?

  • Correct.

  • The pastor and elder have always believed that the Lord's coming will be upon a cloud

  • and that He couldn't be incarnated as the Son of man.

  • Sister Yang,

  • wouldn't you agree that any pastor speaking in that way is daring to define God?

  • They believe God can't do things this way and can't do things that way.

  • Aren't those simply their own notions and imagination?

  • It's similar to when the Bible predicted that the Messiah would come.

  • Instead, the Lord Jesus came.

  • Is this something humans could have imagined?

  • Didn't the Pharisees put regulations on God's work based on their conceptions,

  • ultimately crucifying the innocent Lord Jesus?

  • Their failure is an important lesson!

  • Yet you go on believing the words of the pastor.

  • Isn't this a problem?

  • Yes.

  • Sister, about welcoming the coming of the Lord,

  • we mustn't believe whatever the pastor says,

  • relying on conceptions to define God's appearance and work.

  • The Lord Jesus said, God's sheep hear God's voice.

  • Would you like to hear the voice of God?

  • Yes. Of course!

  • If you don't listen to the words of Almighty God,

  • you'll miss the chance to hear God's voice for yourselves. (Yes.)

  • Sister, don't you see this is the Lord knocking on your door?

  • If you don't listen to the voice of God, if you don't open the door for Him,

  • wouldn't you blame yourselves?

  • Wouldn't you worry about missing the chance to be raptured?

  • Could it be that you really don't want to hear God's voice?

  • From the bottom of my heart,

  • how could we not want to hear the voice of God?

  • Awaiting the coming of the Lord, we hope to hear the voice of the Bridegroom,

  • and to sit with the Lord at the banquet.

  • Thank God!

  • Amen. Yes, thank the Lord.

  • The past few years,

  • we've been hoping for the Lord to come,

  • it's just that we don't know how to hear His voice.

  • With your visit today, this matter has been explained.

  • And now we know, it is very important to hear His voice.

  • Right. (Thank God.)

  • The pastor says that we are small spiritually,

  • and that he is afraid for us that we might be deceived.

  • They don't allow us to discover for ourselves.

  • Brother,

  • If we are God's sheep, then we can discern God's voice.

  • It is a real thing.

  • Yes.

  • There are many prophecies in Revelation:

  • When the Holy Spirit speaks in words, it is the voice of the Lord.

  • If we don't listen to the words that the Holy Spirit speaks,

  • how can we be sure that it is the voice of the Lord?

  • If we always listen to the words of the pastors,

  • will we be able to hear the voice of God?

  • We won't. They don't allow us to read the words of Almighty God.

  • Could it be that the pastor and elder can express the voice of God?

  • You've listened to the preaching of pastors for years.

  • Have you ever seen them express the words of God?

  • No, we have not.

  • Right.

  • Have they actually heard the voice and words of God?

  • Would you say then, that the pastors and elders can hear the voice of God?

  • If you are always restricted by the pastor and elders,

  • what could be the consequences?

  • If this is not taken care of,

  • you will have a part in the sin that they commit in resisting God.

  • In this way it would be likely that you would be abandoned by the Lord.

  • Today we bring Almighty God's voice of the last days and words to your home,

  • and if you still refuse,

  • would such actions meet with the Lord's approval?

  • Wouldn't this hurt the Lord?

  • You really have convinced me.

  • In the past we were truly ignorant.

  • We desire nothing more than to hear the voice of God

  • and to seek the true way.

  • Please commune with us.

  • Yes. Yes, please commune with us.

  • Thank God! Great. Thank God!

  • Hey, shouldn't we go back home and have some fellowship?

  • Yes. Yes, let's go back home and fellowship.

  • Let's go.

  • Fellowshiping like this, you've finally gained clarity,

  • and are willing to hear the voice of God.

  • This is truly God's love. (Amen!)

  • Thank the Lord!

  • Okay, let's read the word of God. (Okay. Good.)

  • Amen.

  • Hey, that makes sense!

  • Now I have an idea how to distinguish the true way from a false way.

  • Thank God!

  • The words of Almighty God explain so clearly the way to distinguish

  • the true way from a false way. (Amen. Yes.)

  • These words truly must have come from Almighty God.

  • We have listened to so many years of preaching by the pastor,

  • but never knew how to distinguish the true way from a false one.

  • The words of Almighty God explain it well!

  • You're so right!

  • I feel that the words of Almighty God are the words of the Holy Spirit.

  • Yes. Thank God! Yes.

  • Hearing Almighty God's words,

  • do you know how to distinguish the true way from a false way? (Yes, we do now.)

  • Would a human being be able to express

  • all of these words and truths expressed by Almighty God?

  • No.

  • Could a pastor ever come up with them?

  • No, I don't think so.

  • Without Almighty God revealing the truth about distinguishing the true way from a false way,

  • would anyone know the principles of distinguishing the true way from a false way? (No.)

  • For eons,

  • has there been a single spiritual person or a religious leader

  • who was able to explain this question clearly? (No.)

  • In the Age of Grace, did the Jewish chief priests, scribes, and Pharisees

  • know how to distinguish the true way?

  • No, they didn't.

  • How did they verify the appearance of the Messiah?

  • They didn't base their ideas on whether the words expressed by the Lord Jesus

  • were the voice of God or the truth,

  • rather, they based their ideas on their own notions and imaginations.

  • Just as long as the Lord Jesus wasn't called the Messiah,

  • though the teachings of the Lord Jesus were the truth,

  • no matter how much authority His words had,

  • they still condemned the Lord Jesus as a deceiver.

  • What was the outcome?

  • They crucified the Messiah who had come, while He was still alive.

  • Yes!

  • Are the pastors and elders of religions in the last days

  • able to distinguish the true way from a false way?

  • No.

  • Would they be capable of crucifying the incarnate Christ all over again?

  • The pastors and elders don't care how much truth Almighty God has expressed.

  • And they don't consider how the words and work of Almighty God purify people and offer salvation.

  • So, how do they identify the true way?

  • If the Lord Jesus doesn't descend on a cloud, he's a fake.

  • Isn't this notion of theirs both absurd and reckless?

  • Yes!

  • What is the difference between them and the Pharisees who resisted the Lord Jesus?

  • Almighty God of the last days has arrived

  • and revealed the truth of how to tell the true way from the false ones.

  • So, we are finally able to fully understand. (Right.)

  • The words of Almighty God are the truth and are the voice of God.

  • Amen!

  • You can hear this, can't you?

  • You're absolutely right!

  • I am certain that the words of Almighty God are the truth,

  • and that they're the voice of God.

  • Thank God!

  • In that case, let's read more of the words of Almighty God.

  • Okay.

  • Amen!

  • Hey, Mom,

  • I feel like these words are God's words.

  • A person couldn't have said these words. (True.)

  • These words have authority and power. (Right.)

  • This does seem like the voice of God. (Right.)

  • You are absolutely right. This is the voice of God.

  • God's sheep hear God's voice.

  • Haven't you heard God's voice today?

  • Thank the Lord!

  • It appears that seeking to hear the voice of God is the right thing to do.

  • Let us read another passage of Almighty God's words. (Good.)

  • What? Is there not one person among those who read the Bible in church

  • that understands God's work?

  • Not a single one of them knows God?

  • I can't completely accept these words.

  • So many pastors and elders,

  • how could not a single one understands the purpose of God's work,

  • not one of them knows God?

  • Your generalizing like this is too much.

  • Though some pastors and elders resist God,

  • it isn't possible that all of them do.

  • The majority of church leaders should be after His heart,

  • because they are all put in place by God.

  • It's starting to get late now. Let's leave it there for now.

  • I can accept some of what you have said,

  • but some of it is still unclear.

  • I still must ask questions of the pastor of our church,

  • and see what he has to say about it.

  • Oh, Sister Yang,

  • you'll soon understand,

  • when you've heard more of Almighty God's words.

  • Right!

  • Sisters,

  • I've gained a lot from hearing you speak about Almighty God's words.

  • It's been a lot more enjoyable than our church gatherings.

  • Thank God!

  • Having heard the words of Almighty God,

  • I feel that it's an expression of truth.

  • How to distinguish the true way from a false way was explained clearly.

  • However, there are a few issues about which we cannot change our minds all at once.

  • We must continue to seek knowledge.

  • Then let's go ahead and call it a day.

  • If we get another chance, we'll continue our fellowship.

  • OK.

  • Okay. So, we'll do this again next time then. (OK.)

  • Goodbye!

  • We'll be going, then. (Goodbye!)

  • Dad, Mom, I feel like those sisters explained everything very well.

  • Their perspective was practical, and more than that, it was enlightening.

  • We've heard the pastor's words.

  • It's all Bible trivia and empty platitudes.

  • There is nothing inspiring about that!

  • I'm starting to feel that we should hear more of Almighty God's words,

  • so we can be sure if it is the true way.

  • The discussion with Sister Li and her partner,

  • it was inspiring and educational.

  • However, when they said that no pastor or elder knew or pleased the Lord.

  • I felt that wasn't very objective.

  • Pastors and elders all serve the Lord.

  • They understand the Bible better than we do,

  • and they are able to see more deeply into some things.

  • If we have some questions, it would be best to seek answers

  • from them and hear their ideas.

  • Then we'll understand better.

  • We should be cautious about an issue as serious as welcoming the Lord.

  • It's best we hear what the pastor has to say.

  • It's necessary.

  • Why do you need to obey the pastor in everything?

  • Could it be that the pastor understands everything thoroughly?

  • Not necessarily, in my opinion.

  • We must seek for ourselves, the truth about welcoming the Lord.

  • Yes!

  • As I see it, these words of Almighty God

  • that are exposing them, the pastors and elders, are factual.

  • Furthermore, the two sisters explained things so well and so practically.

  • Surely they were enlightened by the Holy Spirit.

  • Though we don't understand,

  • we can fellowship with them.

  • Then we'll understand, right? (Right!)

  • You, on the other hand,

  • shooed those people from our home because they thought differently.

  • Was that appropriate?

  • What if Almighty God is God appearing and working?

  • Wouldn't we be missing the chance to be raptured?

  • Wouldn't we be wasting all of our painstaking

  • belief in the Lord over all these years? (Right!)

  • Such an important issue,

  • why are you determined to obey the pastor and elder?

  • I think it's important to hear more of God's words.

  • Mom, Dad has a good point.

  • Almighty God exposed the inner story and the truth behind religion so clearly.

  • Among the pastors who we've come to know over all these years,

  • have you seen one in whom the Holy Spirit is working,

  • one whose message inspires?

  • Yeah.

  • It's true that there hasn't been any inspiration from our pastor in years.

  • I wonder,

  • are they really capable of preparing us for the Lord's return,

  • and leading us into the kingdom of heaven?

  • At gatherings they preach only biblical knowledge and theories of theology.

  • All they do is perform religious rites and make people obey rules. (Yes.)

  • What nourishment for life have we gained

  • in listening to their preaching after all these years?

  • Even now, we don't understand the words of the Lord

  • and don't have any authentic confidence in the Lord.

  • Is this not the actual situation?

  • What you are saying is true.

  • Listening to the preaching of the pastor and the elder for so many years,

  • we really haven't gained any nourishment for life.

  • They are occupied with sealing off the church, with resisting Eastern Lightning.

  • They don't focus on explaining the Bible or shepherding believers.

  • Hearing Eastern Lightning people commune the words of Almighty God these past two times,

  • we have understood some truths,

  • and now we know how to distinguish the true way.

  • I feel like Eastern Lightning's preaching has some truth in it.

  • We should look into it further; can't keep letting the pastor control us.

  • Right!

  • The pastors and elders always condemn, judge, and slander Eastern Lightning.

  • It's a sign of danger.

  • How is it that the path they've taken resembles that of the Pharisees

  • who resisted and condemned the Lord Jesus?

  • So you see,

  • we really must keep pondering this question.

  • Mm, what you're saying does feel right.

  • Hey, I just don't understand,

  • we're able to hear the truth in the preaching of Eastern Lightning,

  • but why do the pastor and elder always condemn Eastern Lightning as heresy?

  • Why don't they bring the words of Almighty God to the church,

  • and read it aloud for everyone to hear?

  • Yeah, why?

  • Won't this allow everyone to decide

  • whether the words of Almighty God are truth,

  • whether they are the voice of God?

  • Right! Precisely!

  • It looks like I'll have to go to Pastor Jia and talk about this.

  • Pastor Jia,

  • Eastern Lightning people read some passages of Almighty God's words to us again.

  • In the words of Almighty God, we hear truth, authority, and power.

  • We have read the Bible for so many years,

  • and we still don't know how to distinguish the true way.

  • Now, the words of Almighty God have explained clearly the truth about this aspect.

  • Our hearts felt clear and bright hearing the words.

  • Now we know how to distinguish the true way from the false ways.

  • Pastor Jia,

  • I feel that Eastern Lightning's preaching has truth and really comes from God.

  • We should listen to Almighty God's words

  • and investigate the preaching of Eastern Lightning.

  • Pastor, you have served the Lord many years,

  • and know the Bible better than us.

  • If you read the words of Almighty God,

  • you will surely discern whether it is the truth and the voice of God.

  • If Eastern Lightning is the work of the returned Lord Jesus,

  • would we not have welcomed the Lord?

  • And if we haven't,

  • wouldn't everyone grow in discernment?

  • What do you think?

  • Sister Yang,

  • last time I told you more than once

  • to have no more contact with people from Eastern Lightning.

  • You did not obey.

  • What happened? You got misled again!

  • You are also a person who works and preaches for the Lord.

  • You should know that all of God's words and all of God's work are in the Bible.

  • God's words appear nowhere except in the Bible.

  • As we wait for the coming of the Lord, we must hold close to the Bible;

  • there's no need to listen for God's voice.

  • I have said these words so many times in sermons.

  • How can you not remember them?

  • You see, for centuries,

  • has anyone not based his faith in the Bible?

  • You can't believe in the Lord without the Bible!

  • Why do you believe what the Eastern Lightning people tell you?

  • Why do you keep looking for the voice of God outside of the Bible?

  • Sister Yang,

  • do you dare to affirm that the words of Almighty God are the voice of the Holy Spirit,

  • that they are the words of the Lord Jesus?

  • Was this confirmed by the pastors or leaders of the religion?

  • Did the Lord Jesus say anything about listening to the words of Almighty God?

  • No, He didn't.

  • Since He didn't, you cannot listen to it.

  • Sister Yang, all of God's words are in the Bible.

  • Eastern Lightning bears witness that the Lord has returned and spoken.

  • This is obviously not in the Bible.

  • We cannot listen to it and cannot believe it.

  • If you are misled by heresy,

  • will you still be able to be raptured into the kingdom of heaven when the Lord comes?

  • Sister Yang, you can't go wrong if you obey me.

  • Do not listen to Eastern Lightning.

  • Don't forget

  • that many good sheep from various sects have been stolen away by Eastern Lightning.

  • What they did was read the words of Almighty God.

  • They all say they heard God's voice and became believers in Almighty God.

  • They even say that they have been raptured up.

  • Is that possible?

  • You must therefore keep firmly in mind:

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

  • God's words and God's work are only found in the Bible.

  • If you can't be sure of this fact,

  • you'll be easily led astray!

  • There is truth in Eastern Lightning,

  • but it seems that what Pastor Jia and his wife say is also correct.

  • Lord, what should I do?

  • Judging from Yang Aiguang's attitude,

  • I think she'll receive people of Eastern Lightning again.

  • If one day she becomes a follower of Eastern Lightning,

  • maybe we won't be able to hold on to those churches for which she is responsible,

  • and church members may follow her in believing in Eastern Lightning.

  • The believers in those churches are enthusiastic and often make large donations.

  • A large part of our income depends on those churches!

  • If this happens, our financial losses will be huge!

  • What can we do?

  • Yang Aiguang thinks that Eastern Lightning has the truth.

  • If she is bent on seeking it out,

  • we won't be able to stop her!

  • We must, I'll go and talk to our Co-worker Wu,

  • and have him send someone to watch Sister Yang,

  • and let me know if anything happens.

  • In that case, get to it. (Alright.)

  • You should know that all of God's words and all of God's work are in the Bible.

  • God's words appear nowhere except in the Bible.

  • As we wait for the coming of the Lord, we must hold close to the Bible;

  • there's no need to listen for God's voice.

  • For centuries,

  • has anyone not based his faith in the Bible?

  • You can't believe in the Lord without the Bible.

  • You can't believe in the Lord without the Bible.

  • Revelation also says:

  • 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.

  • Lord, are the words of Almighty God really the voice of the Holy Spirit?

  • Lord, I pray that You enlighten me,

  • and help me to discern,

  • so that I can hear Your voice, and can see You appear.

  • Lord, I pray that You not abandon me.

  • Who's there?

  • Sister Yang, it's us.

  • Hello, Sister Yang. Sister Yang, hello!

  • You've come back. (Yes.)

  • Please come in!

  • Okay.

  • We've been looking forward to you coming to commune with us again.

  • That's great! We have been looking forward to our meeting and fellowship, too.

  • Hearing the words of Almighty God, you can feel that this is the voice of God.

  • This is as the Lord Jesus said,

  • Thank the Lord. All of this is His kindness to us!

  • You have come at just the right time;

  • we are having a co-workers' meeting.

  • Please fellowship with all of us today. (Certainly.)

  • Let me introduce everyone.

  • This is Sister Li and Sister Fang.

  • Hello, brothers and sisters! (Hello, everybody!)

  • Hello!

  • Here, have some water. (Okay, thank you!)

  • You're welcome.

  • Sister Li, Sister Fang,

  • I find benefit and inspiration by the words of Almighty God you shared.

  • We've been looking forward to you coming and fellowshiping with us about Almighty God's words.

  • Thank God! (Yes!)

  • Almighty God? (Did you hear what they were talking about?)

  • They are believers in Eastern Lightning.

  • I have heard Sister Yang say that the words of Almighty God come from God.

  • Then we should listen, too.

  • There is still one thing about which we are not clear.

  • After your fellowship last time,

  • I went to the pastor to seek advice and give an account.

  • The pastor said that all of God's words and work are in the Bible,

  • and that God's words are nowhere but in the Bible.

  • Our belief in the Lord is proved by reading the Bible,

  • and gathering to fellowship about the Bible.

  • Oh yes, that's right.

  • Only by observing the Bible can we be saved and get into the kingdom of heaven. (Amen!)

  • And yet you bear witness that the Lord has come and has expressed many truths.

  • I, too, see that Almighty God has expressed truths.

  • This is factual.

  • I just feel that there is some contradiction in this.

  • Are the words spoken by the pastor correct or not?

  • Of course they are correct!

  • I've heard you read only the words of Almighty God,

  • and your fellowship centers on His words,

  • and that you seldom read the Bible.

  • Is this deviating from the Bible, and deviating from the Lord's way?

  • We are not able to see the bottom of this question,

  • so we would like you to fellowship with us about it. (Great!)

  • Sister Yang, as I see it, there is no need to discuss this.

  • The pastor and the elder have said clearly:

  • All God's words are in the Bible,

  • God's words can be found nowhere but in the Bible,

  • and deviating from the Bible is heresy.

  • In our belief in the Lord,

  • we must observe the Bible at all times.

  • Amen!

  • Consider all the factions of Christianity.

  • Is there one that doesn't read the Bible?

  • Only Eastern Lightning people have testified that God in the last days has come to speak.

  • They ask you to read the words and hear the voice of Almighty God.

  • Isn't this making people deviate from the Bible and betray the Lord? (Right! That's right.)

  • Sister Yang, we cannot listen to their preaching anymore.

  • If we listen, we will be misled.

  • Send them away.

  • What he said is right!

  • Eastern Lightning witnesses that Almighty God has expressed many truths,

  • doing the judgment work of the last days.

  • But there's no account of this in the Bible.

  • Truly.

  • Sister Yang,

  • we can't just sit here and listen to this.

  • Yeah. Correct!

  • Brother Wu, Sister Wang,

  • though there is no account of the words of Almighty God in the Bible,

  • these words are truth obviously, and could only come from God.

  • Perhaps it is none other than the Holy Spirit's words to the churches

  • that were prophesied in Revelation.

  • Anyone who has ears should try to listen! (Right.)

  • We should look into it further;

  • not just blindly condemn it, like the pastor and the elders.

  • If we don't listen to the voice of God,

  • how can we welcome His return? (Yeah.)

  • Sister, please sit.

  • Best to let these two sisters fellowship with us about the words of Almighty God.

  • That way, we'll be better able

  • to decide whether the words of Almighty God ultimately are truth;

  • if they're the voice of God. (Right.)

  • Please have a seat and listen.

  • Yes, we'll listen.

  • Let's all sit and listen. (Yeah.)

  • Thank God!

  • Brothers and sisters,

  • nowadays religious people observe the Bible,

  • but don't accept Almighty God's last-days work.

  • This is the main crux of the matter.

  • They've neglected to listen for the voice of the Bridegroom.

  • They have neglected that they should seek out the words of the Holy Spirit to the churches.

  • Many people blindly worship the words of the elders,

  • who say such things as,

  • "It's impossible to find God's words anywhere but the Bible."

  • Does this saying have a basis in the Bible? (No.)

  • Did the Lord Jesus make this statement? (No.)

  • Did the Holy Spirit ever say this? (No.)

  • Not anything like it!

  • This really is satanic nonsense to deceive people!

  • Satan wants to blindfold the eyes and muffle the ears of God's chosen people,

  • preventing them from hearing the voice of God,

  • preventing them from hearing the words of the Holy Spirit to the churches.

  • Isn't this a trick of Satan's treachery and evil?

  • There are many people who so revere the pastors

  • that they believe any nonsense the pastors say to be correct.

  • Isn't this foolish and ignorant?

  • Right!

  • The Lord Jesus said clearly:

  • Amen!

  • Revelation also prophesies,

  • The Lord's words are very clear.

  • because then when the Lord comes in the last days,

  • He will speak and guide people to all truth.

  • On the other hand, the pastors say

  • that all of God's work and words are in the Bible,

  • and that the words of God is only found in the Bible.

  • Isn't this just blatantly opposing the Lord?

  • Opposing the Lord?

  • The very thing! Can you believe it?

  • How could these prophecies of the Lord come true and be achieved,

  • according to their viewpoints?

  • The Lord Jesus also said,

  • And so how would these prophecies come to be true?

  • How would the tares be separated from the wheat,

  • the good servants from the evil, or the wise virgins from the foolish?

  • How would the overcomers be made before the calamity?

  • How would judgment at the great white throne in the last days be completed?

  • How would the kingdom of Christ of the last days arise? (Yeah, how?)

  • How would God's tabernacle among people be established?

  • If God were not incarnated,

  • could all of this be accomplished by the people?

  • No.

  • If the work done by God in the past,

  • in the Age of Law and in the Age of Grace were all there was,

  • how could these prophecies come true?

  • She has spoken the truth!

  • Therefore,

  • the work of God in the last days is the final,

  • most essential stage of work in God's management plan.

  • It must be done by God incarnate Himself.

  • Only in this way can all of these realities be accomplished.

  • That's great!

  • Right now, Almighty God is in the process of doing the judgment work of the last days,

  • and has expressed many truths.

  • Could any human express such truths?

  • Are they truths that an angel could express?

  • No.

  • Could they be expressed by any great spiritual person?

  • No.

  • No one could express them; only God Himself could express them.

  • Right! Amen.

  • Because the words expressed by Almighty God are the truth,

  • and are the voice of God,

  • even though it's not recorded in the Bible,

  • would anyone dare say they aren't the words of God?

  • Would anyone dare to deny that it is the voice of God?

  • In the future, God will say many, many words

  • to lead and nourish the human race.

  • This is something that no one can deny.

  • Therefore, when the pastor and the elder say,

  • "All of God's work and words can be found nowhere but in the Bible,"

  • it is completely fallacious and absurd!

  • This is an example of religion defining God and resisting God.

  • There's truth in what she says.

  • Yes!

  • So tell me then, is everyone clear about this? (Yes.)

  • Good. Thank God!

  • So let us read a few more passages to gain clarity and understanding about this question.

  • Great! That's a great idea.

  • We'll listen closely! (All right!)

  • I think it is.

  • These words are so apt!

  • How could the words of the Lord in the last days

  • be recorded in advance in the Bible?

  • Yes.

  • Thank God!

  • Brothers and sisters,

  • now let's watch a video reading Almighty God's words.

  • What do you all say to that? (Great!)

  • Yes.

  • Let's watch it. Watch attentively. Look.

  • This is so great. It's coming out. Let's watch.

  • These words are amazing! (Right!)

  • The Pharisees crucified the Lord Jesus

  • because they were adhering rigidly to the Bible.

  • Absolutely true!

  • Without Almighty God, we couldn't have learned this.

  • Having heard the words of Almighty God,

  • I feel truly ashamed.

  • God is the fountainhead of living water of life,

  • the words of God flow forever, inexhaustible.

  • How could God speak only those words limited to the biblical record? (Yes, how?)

  • Amen.

  • In belief in God, we never really understood truth,

  • and didn't know God at all.

  • We even believed what the pastor said,

  • and limited the words and work of God to the Bible.

  • Yes, we did.

  • We believed that God only spoke those words that were recorded in the Bible,

  • and that God would never speak again.

  • Wasn't this defining God and belittling God?

  • I was too arrogant and conceited, too foolish and ignorant!

  • Yeah.

  • I was actually misled by the pastor for so many years,

  • and I had no idea.

  • I was poor, and pitiful, and also blind!

  • It truly is that way.

  • Revelation says many times:

  • We read these words so many times.

  • How did we ever overlook the meaning?

  • How could we not have thought

  • that God of the last days would still speak to the churches?

  • How foolish and ignorant we were!

  • Yes! We were.

  • The pastor is to blame for all this,

  • emphasizing knowledge of the Bible and theological theories,

  • confusing us with a lot of religious concepts and ideas

  • disorienting us, so we didn't know how to prepare for the coming of the Lord.

  • We didn't know how to seek the words of the Holy Spirit to the churches.

  • Right!

  • Today, thankfully you shared with us the words of Almighty God,

  • so we were able to hear God's voice. (Thank God!)

  • If we hadn't, we'd still be deceived by the pastor and elder.

  • We just escaped missing the chance to welcome the Lord's return.

  • Thinking about it, it feels dangerous. (That's right.)

  • These pastors and elders are hypocritical Pharisees!

  • Yes. Yeah. Yes, they are. Right.

  • Amen.

  • Thankfully, we understand now about the church elders. (Yes.)

  • They are really hypocritical Pharisees. (Yes!)

  • We won't listen to them anymore. (Right! That's right!)

  • Last time, I told you not to give an account to the pastor and ask his advice,

  • but I still couldn't stop you.

  • It seems you finally understand now!

  • Don't point out my shortcomings; don't air my dirty laundry!

  • Everybody makes mistakes.

  • Yes!

  • Thank God! (Yes! Thank God!)

  • Amen!

  • The words of God say it so well! (Yes!)

  • Now I clearly understand,

  • God of the last days mainly works through words,

  • and uses words to purify people. (Yes, thank God!)

  • Who is it?

  • Sister Yang, it's us.

  • Welcome back. Please come in. (Okay.)

  • Sister Li, Sister Fang,

  • we wanted to gather the brothers and sisters

  • to consider and discuss the last-days work of God together (Yes. Good.)

  • so that everyone can read the words of Almighty God

  • and hear the voice of God. (Great! That sounds absolutely perfect.)

  • Someone is knocking on the door, put things away!

  • I'll go have a look.

  • Who is it?

  • It is me and Pastor Jia.

  • It is our church's pastor.

  • Why are they here?

  • Hello.

  • Pastor Jia, please sit.

  • Sister Yang, what have you done?

  • How are you still so confused?

  • You are a leader of our church,

  • yet you're violating church rules,

  • by receiving Eastern Lightning people.

  • You even bring some others together to listen to their preaching!

  • You're deviating from the Lord's way! (That's True!)

  • Aren't you afraid of betraying the Lord?

  • Sister Yang, I'm not scolding you.

  • But how could you listen to their preachings without the pastor's approval?

  • Do you value the pastor's opinion at all?

  • Yeah, do you?

  • The pastors and elders are stewards of the Lord;

  • they are the Lord's servants.

  • If you don't obey our pastors and elders, are you submitting to the Lord?

  • Not giving the pastor the final say on issues of the Lord's coming

  • is really presumptuous.

  • Pastor Jia, whatever we have to say, let's do it sitting down.

  • Please sit.

  • Have a seat.

  • Pastor Jia, I knew your purpose in coming was to say these things.

  • What I don't understand

  • is, why don't you let us hear Eastern Lightning?

  • Why don't you let us hear the Lord's voice? (Yes, why?)

  • What is your intent?

  • You know that Almighty God expresses truth and has begun the judgment of the last days.

  • Why don't you pursue and look into this, why must you resist and condemn it?

  • What's the difference between you and the Pharisees

  • who resisted the Lord Jesus? (Right!)

  • In the past I had a high opinion of you,

  • and believed that your words tally with the Bible.

  • Because of that, in everything, I obeyed you.

  • If I had a problem, I would ask.

  • I believed that you would lead us to welcome the coming of the Lord.

  • But we have waited till now and still haven't welcomed the Lord.

  • Correct!

  • Now, God's last-days judgment work is almost finished,

  • still you won't let us learn about Eastern Lightning.

  • Will you rest only when you've harassed us to death? (Right!)

  • How can she speak this way?

  • Right!

  • Amen!

  • You certainly know these words of the Lord.

  • In welcoming Him, the key is to listen for His voice.

  • The Lord Jesus never said that welcoming Him must be approved by the pastor of a church.

  • Yes.

  • Now, we are investigating the true way, hearing the Lord's voice based on His words.

  • This is after the Lord's heart.

  • Why must you continue obstructing us?

  • In doing this,

  • you're going against the words of the Lord and betraying the Lord! (That's Right!)

  • Sister Yang, how can you speak this way to our pastor?

  • Isn't he doing this to protect us,

  • concerned that we might be misled?

  • That's right!

  • Sister Yang,

  • it is my responsibility to obstruct your pursuit of Eastern Lightning.

  • If you all start believing in Eastern Lightning,

  • there'll be no one left in the church.

  • When the Lord comes, how will I be held accountable?

  • Please consider,

  • if Eastern Lightning were the true way,

  • wouldn't we pastors and elders accept it?

  • Yes!

  • Having accepted it,

  • we would then have you accept it, wouldn't we?

  • At present none of us pastors have accepted it.

  • So how could we let you seek it out for yourself?

  • That's right!

  • We don't allow you to investigate Eastern Lightning,

  • because we fear you will be misled,

  • and forfeit the chance to enter the kingdom of heaven.

  • Exactly! How can you not understand Pastor Jia's good intentions?

  • Pastor Jia, is what you've said the truth?

  • We are seeking the true way and listening to the Lord's voice

  • according to His word.

  • Yet you do your utmost to obstruct us.

  • Is this protecting us or being responsible for our lives? (No.)

  • All you're doing is trapping us and ruining us!

  • It is.

  • Pastor Jia,

  • you condemn Eastern Lightning continually,

  • and don't allow us to pursue it.

  • May I ask you, have you read the words of Almighty God?

  • Do you understand The Church of Almighty God?

  • If you have not looked into it,

  • and dare to groundlessly condemn Eastern Lightning,

  • don't you worry you're resisting God?

  • I can see clearly

  • that this action of yours is not because you fear we will actually be deceived;

  • you fear that if everyone begins to believe in Almighty God.

  • Your status will be at risk.

  • You condemn Eastern Lightning and prevent us from seeking the true way.

  • Do you think by acting this way, you can prevent us hearing the voice of God?

  • Will you take over God's sheep for yourself? (That's right! Right!)

  • You are very wrong.

  • When God comes looking for all of His sheep,

  • will you be able to stop Him? (No way!)

  • Those Pharisees of early times

  • believed that after they crucified the Lord Jesus,

  • no one would believe in Him anymore,

  • and their status and livelihood would be protected.

  • What was the result?

  • The people of Israel were subjugated,

  • and scattered all over the world to foreign lands.

  • The Jews and Pharisees who resisted God

  • all met with God's curses and punishment.

  • It is. That's a fact.

  • God began spreading the gospel to Gentile nations,

  • and didn't more and more people in all nations believe in the Lord?

  • Because it's true.

  • Pastor Jia, you often explain the Bible to people.

  • You ought to be able to see this fact, right?

  • Yeah, pastor.

  • I never would have thought you could say what you have said today.

  • Forbidding you from exploring Eastern Lightning

  • is to protect you, for your own good, do you understand that?

  • This is the truth.

  • The Lord Jesus clearly admonished us:

  • Amen!

  • The words of the Lord say very clearly,

  • don't believe anyone who says "Christ is here,"

  • or "Christ is there," don't believe them.

  • That way, you'll avoid being deceived by false Christs.

  • You cannot be unaware of this saying.

  • And now Eastern Lightning says the Lord has returned,

  • and that He is God incarnate.

  • This is certainly false!

  • It is.

  • I am a pastor;

  • I must look after the Lord's sheep,

  • and must be responsible for your lives.

  • You absolutely must not keep investigating Eastern Lightning.

  • You can't accept Almighty God.

  • Otherwise, you will not be able to get into the kingdom of heaven.

  • Pastor Jia is right.

  • Anyone who bears witness for God becoming the flesh is a liar.

  • That's correct.

  • Currently, false Christs have been emerging everywhere.

  • Some people don't know better, and have been misled.

  • We have such a little understanding of the Bible,

  • we're spiritually small.

  • How could we do without our pastor and elder,

  • who watch out for us? (That's right.)

  • If you are not really careful,

  • you could be misled by a false Christ;

  • wouldn't that be trouble?

  • Would you still be raptured into the kingdom of heaven when the Lord comes?

  • You really must be careful.

  • Pastor Jia,

  • it is true that there are false Christs and false prophets deceiving people.

  • It is true, however, that the Lord will come again. (Right!)

  • Could it be that you dare deny the Lord's return?

  • That the Lord will become flesh as the Son of man in the last days

  • has a foundation in the Bible.

  • You condemn God's incarnation of the last days as a false Christ.

  • In doing this, aren't you condemning God's appearance and God's work,

  • and blaspheming God?

  • You're the same as the Pharisees who condemned the Lord Jesus!

  • You deny Christ, condemn Christ, and resist Christ!

  • The Bible says,

  • All who do not acknowledge God incarnate,

  • all who deny Christ, who resist and condemn Christ are antichrists.

  • Right!

  • That's what the antichrist is! (Right.)

  • This time we can discern better. (Yes.)

  • Why do religious leaders in the church

  • always use false Christs and false prophets of the last days as an excuse

  • to condemn the appearance and work of Almighty God, Christ of the last days.

  • Yes, why?

  • Almighty God has expressed the truth to purify people and save people

  • and performed the work of judgment starting in God's house,

  • reveling the mysteries of God's management plan.

  • Many good sheep of all sects and denominations in religion

  • firmly believe that the words of Almighty God are truth, and are the voice of God.

  • They have all turned toward Almighty God. (Thank God! Amen!)

  • This fact has shaken all religious circles.

  • It is not that you didn't hear about it, or see it.

  • So then why don't you investigate it?

  • Why must you resist and condemn it?

  • Yes, why?

  • May I ask:

  • Could false Christs and false prophets express such truth,

  • and express God's voice?

  • No.

  • Could false Christs unfold the mysteries of God's management plan?

  • Could false Christs do God's judgment work in the last days?

  • No.

  • Could false Christs purify people and save people?

  • No, they could not.

  • Since they can't,

  • why do you hate Almighty God who only expresses the truth?

  • Why do you do everything you can to keep people from hearing His words?

  • Yes, why?

  • Do you hate the truth, or are you declaring God your enemy?

  • Are you contending for His chosen people?

  • Yes.

  • Could it be that you don't fear resisting and crucifying God again?

  • Don't you worry that you'll offend God's disposition and meet God's judgment?

  • The consequence of this would be grave! The consequence is dreadful to contemplate!

  • Pastor Jia, what Sister Li said today is all true,

  • you know you can't deny it!

  • For years, you have quoted out of context misinterpreting the Bible.

  • Under the banner of fighting false Christs,

  • you prevented us from seeking the true way.

  • You really caused us harm.

  • Exactly! That's really true.

  • Were it not for your deception and obstruction,

  • would we not have already heard the voice of God and welcomed God?

  • Yes!

  • Now, with great difficulty, we have heard God's voice,

  • and seen God's appearance of the last days.

  • Yet still you repeatedly try to obstruct us.

  • Isn't it enough for you to ensnare us?

  • Right!

  • Pastor Jia, what did the Lord Jesus say in Chapter 24 of Matthew?

  • Amen!

  • Pastor Jia, look at what you're doing,

  • how is it different from the evil servant Lord Jesus spoke about?

  • It's not different.

  • If you go to hell to be punished for resisting God,

  • why must you pull us along?

  • Yes, why? Why?

  • I urge you to lose no time in repenting.

  • Do not resist the work of Almighty God.

  • Resisting God will meet with punishment,

  • and no one can endure such a consequence!

  • Correct! This is something terrible!

  • What are you saying?

  • We'll go to hell and be punished for resisting God,

  • and take you with us?

  • Tell me! Where did this come from?

  • Yes! Exactly!

  • Obstructing you from investigating Eastern Lightning,

  • not allowing you to accept Almighty God,

  • what's wrong with that?

  • Have I become a sinner?

  • Having guided you faithfully for many years,

  • I never thought you would ever disregard my words.

  • You've only known these Eastern Lightning people for a few days,

  • yet you believed their words right away!

  • You turn around and chide me.

  • You really disappoint me!

  • Time and again you claim the words of Almighty God are truth,

  • and are the voice of God.

  • What is the basis for your certainty?

  • Are you able to discern which are God's words,

  • and which ones are man's words?

  • Can you?

  • Are you able to discern the voice of God?

  • Yes, are you?

  • So many pastors in religious circles condemn Eastern Lightning,

  • are you certain that the words of Almighty God are the voice of God?

  • Could it be you know more about the Bible than pastors and elders do?

  • That's right!

  • Sister Yang, you all have been deceived.

  • I urge you to lose no time in turning around.

  • Stop being stubborn and foolish!

  • Pastor Jia,

  • in our belief, we should listen to the words of the Lord.

  • We should seek out the voice of the Lord using His prophecies.

  • Right! Exactly.

  • The Lord Jesus never said that we must obey the pastor and elder.

  • Are you telling me that pastors can hear the voice of God?

  • Do you dare to guarantee that what the pastors and elders resist and condemn

  • is definitely not the true way?

  • When the Lord appeared to work long ago,

  • did the chief priests, scribes, and Pharisees of the Jewish faith

  • recognize the Lord Jesus was the coming of the Messiah?

  • Did they accept that the speech of Lord Jesus was actually the voice of God?

  • Didn't they condemn and blaspheme the Lord Jesus for speaking a blasphemy?

  • Exactly!

  • Pastor Jia, Almighty God has expressed many truths.

  • You are deaf to the voice of God,

  • yet you want to guide us, you want to steer our course?

  • Isn't that the blind leading the blind, all falling into the pit?

  • Aren't you the blind people leading the way? (It really is the truth.)

  • It certainly is!

  • Fortunately, God sent witnesses to fellowship truth with us,

  • and persistently knock on our doors,

  • so we heard the words of Almighty God, and heard the voice of God.

  • Thank God! Amen!

  • We won't tolerate your lies and barriers any longer.

  • You were on the brink of ruining us!

  • Keep out of our business!

  • Our business has nothing to do with you! (Right!)

  • You're not worthy to lead and nurture us;

  • you're not worthy to be our pastor!

  • Furthermore, we aren't your sheep;

  • we are the Lord's sheep.

  • We only listen to the voice of God, and walk with Him! (Amen!)

  • Thank God!

  • Very well.

  • If you must believe in their God,

  • I won't try to stop you.

  • I must warn you, however.

  • If you insist on following Eastern Lightning,

  • then you will be expelled from the church according to the rules.

  • You'll have nothing to do with the church, and have no part of it. (Right!)

  • When you are rejected by the Lord,

  • unable to get into the heavenly kingdom,

  • don't blame us pastors and elders for not protecting you.

  • Right!

  • Pastor Jia,

  • there is nothing frightening about leaving your church.

  • What's frightening is not hearing God's voice, or welcoming the Lord's return,

  • and losing forever the blessing of being raptured.

  • Yes, indeed! Amen!

  • What church is this church of yours?

  • It's only a Lukewarm church, or the church of Sardis.

  • Your church has already been eliminated by the Holy Spirit,

  • and has become a wasteland.

  • Is it even worthy to be called a church?

  • Now, we have finally heard the voice of God,

  • we've been before the throne of God.

  • We are attending the feast of the Lamb. (Amen.)

  • Amen! Thank God!

  • Even if you didn't expel me,

  • I would never return to your religion!

  • Exactly! We will not go back.

  • You … you are beyond hope!

  • You've really gone too far!

  • Pastor Jia,

  • I think Yang Aiguang has made up her mind, and won't change. (Yes.)

  • She firmly believes that Eastern Lightning is the true way,

  • so she's going to help Eastern Lightning steal sheep, for sure.

  • Then those churches she's responsible for will be defenseless!

  • Exactly.

  • We can't just watch and do nothing.

  • Pastor Jia,

  • don't you think we should call the police on them? (Yeah?)

  • Why even ask?

  • Hurry up and call,

  • round up those Eastern Lightning people and throw them in jail!

  • Then see them try to steal sheep!

  • Exactly. I'm calling now.

  • Sister Li, Sister Fang,

  • this time we had a thorough falling out with our pastor.

  • When he gets back, he'll certainly seal off the church,

  • and have people forsake us.

  • If our brothers and sisters believe his nonsense,

  • it'll be hard for us to bear witness for God's last-days work.

  • So, I want to lose no time in getting everyone together,

  • and have them all hear God's voice,

  • and pursue and look into God's work.

  • Yes, you are right!

  • In fact, the sooner the better.

  • Right.

  • Hey, you know how the pastor and elder hate us.

  • Would they call the police on us?

  • As I see it, Pastor Jia would do such a thing

  • to protect his status and livelihood.

  • Even if the pastors and elders hate that we accept the true way,

  • they wouldn't call the police.

  • I wish that were true.

  • We must stay ahead of them if we are to spread the gospel to the brothers and sisters.

  • If we wait until they have sealed off the church,

  • it will be hard to spread the gospel. (You are right about that.)

  • Sister Yang,

  • you must invite those who truly believe in God,

  • love the truth, to seek out the true way.

  • God comes in secret to do the last-days work; He comes to steal the "treasures,"

  • only stealing the good sheep so that He can perfect them as the overcomers.

  • God does not select those who eat their fill, and don't love the truth.

  • Okay, I see!

  • We understand.

  • What's going on?

  • People preaching Eastern Lightning.

  • Preaching Eastern Lightning? Where?

  • That house beside the road to the village.

  • As soon as you make the turn toward the village.

  • People are preaching Eastern Lightning.

  • You have to hurry, they are in the middle of a meeting.

  • You have to go right now to get them.

  • Sister Li, Sister Fang, you're all here? (Hi, Xiaojie.)

  • Hey, Mom, just now I saw Pastor Jia, Wu Xin, and others

  • at the entrance to the village talking with the police.

  • That's bad! (Yes!)

  • Maybe Pastor Jia called the police.

  • Let's go!

  • Sisters, we can't go out through the front door now.

  • Hurry, follow me out the back door! (Yes. Okay. Let's go.)

  • Hurry! Leave quickly!

  • What are you doing? This is a private residence! (Yeah, right! Move aside!)

  • Come on.

  • Is this even legal? (Search the place! Come on.)

  • Brother,

  • many people have gathered today, please be extra careful. (Yes.)

  • If you notice anything unusual, notify us immediately. (Yes.)

  • Don't worry. You go ahead.

  • All right. We'll go.

  • Be careful, Brother Gao.

  • Yeah, this little room is well hidden.

  • We should be safe here.

  • Yes, and we have brothers and sisters standing guard.

  • We'll be able to conduct our meeting safely this time

  • and shouldn't have to worry about the police.

  • Sister Li, Sister Fang,

  • since last time, I spoke with everyone to bear witness

  • that the Lord Jesus has returned as Almihty God, (Thank God. Yes.)

  • who has expressed many truths, and is now doing the judgment work. (Yes.)

  • We all feel that the work of Almighty God is true to Bible prophecies,

  • and want to seek out the true way.

  • Thank God!

  • They raised many questions that I wasn't able to answer.

  • Please fellowship with us, and respond to our many questions!

  • Okay!

  • Allow me to raise a question first.

  • We have been misled by the pastor for years, however.

  • We've waited for the Lord to come on a cloud

  • and take us into the heavenly kingdom,

  • and not seeking to hear the voice of God. (Yes.)

  • Though some have testified to the words of Almighty God,

  • we haven't listened,

  • so we've been waiting for the Lord for many years,

  • but still have not welcomed Him!

  • You said it well. (Yes.)

  • Yes.

  • Thank the Lord!

  • Only on that day when I heard you bearing witness of Almighty God's work of the last days

  • did I understand that the Lord has used words to call to His sheep.

  • The key in waiting for the coming of the Lord is to seek the voice of the Lord. (Yes!)

  • But now, our greatest difficulty is that

  • we don't know how we should listen for His voice.

  • We're also not able to distinguish between

  • what's God's voice and what isn't.

  • Please tell us about how to be certain once and for all of the Lord's voice.

  • Okay.

  • Yes, that's great. That's a really great question.

  • So true.

  • Unable to discern the voice of God, we have no way to welcome the Lord!

  • Right.

  • We have not been able to welcome the Lord these years

  • because we lack this.

  • We must listen very attentively today.

  • Yes. Thanks be to God!

  • How do we hear the voice of God?

  • The loftiness of the qualities or the length of our experience do not count in this.

  • Believing in the Lord Jesus,

  • what do we feel when we hear many of His words?

  • Though we have no experience or knowledge of the Lord's words,

  • the moment we hear them we feel that they are the truth,

  • that they have the power and authority.

  • How does this feeling arise?

  • Is it generated by virtue of our experience? (No.)

  • Is this the effect of inspiration and intuition?

  • This proves that people with heart and spirit

  • can all feel the words of God have power and authority;

  • this is actually hearing the voice of God.

  • Yes. That's really how it is.

  • Furthermore, the greatest difference between the voice of God and that of man is

  • the voice of God is the truth and has power and authority;

  • we can feel it as soon as we hear it.

  • Regardless of whether we can put it into words,

  • the feeling is abundantly clear. (Right.)

  • It is easier to discern the voice of man;

  • no sooner do we hear it than we feel it is clear.

  • We feel not the slightest power or authority in man's words,

  • and even less we can confirm they are the truth.

  • This is the greatest difference between the words of God and the words of man.

  • Yes, that's right.

  • Yes.

  • For example,

  • we see that the words of the Lord Jesus have power and authority;

  • when we hear them, we are sure they are the truth,

  • they are really profound, very mysterious,

  • and completely beyond the measure of man.

  • Isn't that right?

  • Yes. Thanks be to God. Amen.

  • Now, let's look at the words of the apostles in the Bible,

  • while most are enlightened by the Holy Spirit,

  • they have no authority or power.

  • They are simply correct words, only words that benefit people.

  • Let's also discuss

  • whether any man could speak the words that the Lord Jesus did.

  • No.

  • No, there is no one who ever could. (Yes.)

  • That's right.

  • This affirms the words of the Lord Jesus as the voice of God.

  • Making comparisons,

  • aren't we able to distinguish between the voice of God and the voice of man? (Yes.)

  • Fellowshiping in this way, we are able to distinguish

  • between the voice of God and the voice of man.

  • It's easy and simple. It's really great!

  • You're right. Thank God!

  • Hey, sisters,

  • I would really like to hear how you can be certain

  • that the words of Almighty God are the voice of God.

  • Could you talk more about this please? (Okay.)

  • Oh yes, I would like that. (Okay, I will.)

  • Almighty God has said so many words in doing judgment work of the last days.

  • As for us,

  • we also did not know that it was the voice of God

  • until we heard that His words were the truth, had authority and power.

  • So let's watch a video recitation of Almighty God's words.

  • Let's listen and see if the words of Almighty God are really the voice of God.

  • OK? (Okay.)

  • We watched one last time. It was so good!

  • You should watch, too.

  • Let's watch.

  • Amen!

  • These words have such authority! (Yeah. It really feels like voice of God.)

  • Yes!

  • Amen!

  • Thanks be to God!

  • Brothers and sisters, let's read Almighty God's words aloud.

  • Great!

  • Please turn to page 332.

  • I would like to read. (Good.)

  • Amen!

  • Praise God.

  • How does everyone feel, having heard the word of Almighty God?

  • It's great! Wonderful!

  • Can you tell that it's really the voice of God?

  • Yes!

  • The words of Almighty God have both authority and power!

  • Yes, they do.

  • It really is the voice of God!

  • The words of Almighty God are so amazing!

  • You're right.

  • No person could speak like that.

  • It's the voice of God!

  • The voice of God?

  • Why am I not able to hear this?

  • It seems like a person speaking.

  • You're right.

  • The pastor and elder know the Bible better than us.

  • Even they can't see the difference. How can we know the voice of God?

  • The words of Almighty God are so thrilling.

  • I was full of reverence when I heard them!

  • Right! Me too! Yes!

  • The word of God is the word of God.

  • Despite not knowing the truth or knowing God,

  • when we hear God's word, we feel different.

  • You've hit it on the head!

  • I want everyone to hear the voice of God.

  • Yes. We hear it for sure.

  • Yes. Thank God!

  • Reading Almighty God's words, we all have the same feeling;

  • we all feel that this is God speaking to mankind.

  • Other than God, who else could ever speak to all of mankind?

  • Who could possibly express to mankind God's intention to save mankind?

  • Who could declare to mankind God's plan for His work of the last days,

  • and their final outcome?

  • Who could solemnly declare to the universe God's administrative decrees?

  • Apart from God, no one ever could!

  • Right!

  • It really is true. Only God could. (That's absolutely correct.)

  • Almighty God speaks to the whole of mankind

  • and lets man feel the power and authority of God's words;

  • the words of Almighty God are the direct expression of God,

  • they are the voice of God!

  • Amen!

  • All the words uttered by Almighty God

  • are as if God stands upon the third heaven

  • and speaks clearly to all humanity;

  • here is where Almighty God is speaking as the Creator to all of mankind,

  • manifesting to mankind His unoffendable disposition of righteousness and majesty.

  • When the sheep of God hear the words of Almighty God,

  • though they do not understand the truth in the beginning,

  • and though they have no experience with them,

  • they feel that every word of Almighty God has power and authority,

  • and can affirm that they are the voice of God

  • and the direct utterance of God's Spirit.

  • Amen.

  • God's chosen people only need hear the words of God to affirm they are His voice.

  • So how can all those pastors in religious circles condemn Almighty God?

  • As for those antichrists who don't recognize God's incarnation,

  • and don't admit that God can utter the truth,

  • although they've seen all the truths that God utters,

  • and feel that His words have power and authority,

  • they still don't believe that God can speak in this way

  • and won't admit that everything that God utters is the truth.

  • What is the problem here?

  • Can you figure it out for yourselves?

  • Almighty God incarnate in the last days speaks to all mankind,

  • but how many of us can hear God's voice?

  • Yes.

  • There are many in religious circles who see Almighty God speaking,

  • yet they can't discern whether it's the voice of God;

  • they even treat God's words like the words of man,

  • and use man's conceptions to judge, slander, and condemn Him.

  • Do these people have a heart that fears God?

  • No, they don't.

  • Aren't they the same as the Pharisees of the past?

  • They all hate the truth and condemn God. (Yeah.)

  • It's true.

  • God's words have such great authority, such power,

  • but they can't hear that these words are the voice of God.

  • Can such people be God's sheep?

  • No.

  • If they are unable to even hear God's voice; then they're not God's sheep.

  • It's true.

  • Yes. Their hearts are completely blind.

  • They may hear, but they don't know;

  • though they see, they can't understand.

  • How can such people be worthy of rapture?

  • They really can't be raptured!

  • They're just like the Pharisees. (Yes.)

  • God incarnate in the last days has uttered the truth,

  • and exposed the people in religious circles:

  • the true believers and the false, the lovers of truth and those who loathe it,

  • the wise and the foolish virgins.

  • All people are naturally divided, each into their kinds.

  • Amen!

  • As Almighty God says,

  • Amen.

  • And so, those who can hear the voice of God have met the Lord's second coming,

  • and been raptured before God's throne attending the feast of the Lamb.

  • These people are the wise virgins, and the most fortunate of mankind.

  • Thanks be to God!

  • The work of God is so authentic, so practical. (Yes.)

  • How wise God is! (Amen.)

  • God becoming flesh and speaking

  • marks the difference between the wise and the foolish virgin. (Yeah.)

  • The word of God decides who will be raptured,

  • and who will be cast away.

  • This shows God's justice and righteousness! (Amen!)

  • God would never play favorites!

  • Yes.

  • Thank God! That's true.

  • Brothers and sisters,

  • we must listen to the voice of God with our heart and spirit.

  • Like two minds thinking alike.

  • The words of God are the truth, they have power and authority;

  • those with heart and spirit can definitely feel it.

  • Yes, that's true.

  • Many people, after reading the words of Almighty God,

  • affirm they are in fact God's voice and His words.

  • Right, these words sound so practical.

  • Having heard the words of Almighty God, I have the same feeling.

  • Every time God becomes flesh, He comes to do a stage of work;

  • unlike the prophets who, via God's direction,

  • just transmit a few words in a particular context.

  • When God incarnates to do a stage of work, He must speak many words;

  • He must utter many truths,

  • revealing mysteries and speaking prophecies.

  • This may take years or even decades to complete.

  • Yeah.

  • For example, in doing the work of redemption,

  • the Lord Jesus preached

  • and taught man how to confess, how to repent, forgive, endure,

  • and how to suffer and bear one's cross,

  • and everything that constituted the way of man in the Age of Grace.

  • He displayed God's disposition of love and mercy,

  • and revealed the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven,

  • and the conditions under which we enter it;

  • it was only in His crucifixion, His resurrection, and His ascension to heaven

  • that God's work of redemption was completed.

  • The words uttered by the Lord Jesus are all the truths

  • that God has gifted mankind in His work of redemption.

  • And now, Almighty God has come

  • and uttered the truths that cleanse and save man.

  • He has done the work of judgment starting with the house of God,

  • and revealed to mankind His disposition with righteousness as its core.

  • He unfolded the great mysteries of His six-thousand-year management plan;

  • He has opened up the Age of Kingdom and brought to an end the Age of Grace.

  • The words of Almighty God are the natural outpourings of the essence of God's life

  • and the expression of His disposition;

  • this is an entire stage of the work that God is doing in the last days

  • to thoroughly cleanse and save mankind.

  • Amen!

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

  • and hear for ourselves the words are the truth, spoken in God's voice, OK?

  • OK.

  • Amen!

  • I'll read this part! (OK.)

  • Amen!

  • Ah, God's words sound so clear.

  • God will use truth to do His work of judgment, after all. (Right.)

  • This isn't at all what I imagined!

  • Please turn to page 932.

  • I'll read a passage, too.

  • Amen!

  • Thank God, I could be here …

  • Brothers and sisters, let's watch another video reading of God's words!

  • Great! Good!

  • Amen!

  • Thanks be to God! I'm so happy we got to watch that.

  • The words of Almighty God

  • explain the judgment work of the last days so clearly there. (Yes. Yeah.)

  • We can see the work of God is so practical!

  • Thank God!

  • If we hadn't read the words of God almighty,

  • we'd still be waiting for judgment at the great white throne in the sky! (Right. That's for sure.)

  • That's for sure.

  • We used to imagine God's judgment work in the last days

  • as being very supernatural, without any real application. (Yes.)

  • It appears Almighty God's words have to be the voice of God.

  • Otherwise, who could reveal the mysteries of the last-days work of God!

  • You are right.

  • Today we've heard the voice of God,

  • and received God's judgment of the last days.

  • This was incredibly lucky!

  • Yes.

  • Yeah, I never imagined in my wildest dreams.

  • Brothers and sisters, after reading those words,

  • isn't it so much clearer how God's judgment in the last days will work?

  • Yeah. Sure.

  • Thanks be to God.

  • If God did not reveal and state this openly,

  • how could we have any insight?

  • There's no way. I have no insight without God's help.

  • In the last days, Almighty God speaks the truth and does His work of judgment.

  • His words reveal the essence and true state of mankind's corruption;

  • they completely expose every manifestation

  • of man's resistance to God and satanic disposition,

  • and they demonstrate God's unoffendable disposition of holiness and righteousness.

  • People have therefore seen the appearance and work of God,

  • and have turned toward God one after another,

  • and have accepted God's salvation. (That's wonderful.)

  • Almighty God expresses truth to judge people,

  • and first implements judgment and chastisement

  • through His words upon believers in God,

  • and exposes the essence of these people in religious circles

  • who profess belief but resist God.

  • Let us see how the words of Almighty God explain it.

  • Very good.

  • I'll continue reading.

  • Brothers and sisters,

  • we recognize from the judgment of Almighty God's words:

  • our own conceit, our self-importance, and our deceit,

  • and in every respect, we betray our satanic disposition.

  • Though we may endure great hardship and pay the price for God,

  • we do not have authentic submission toward God,

  • and even less do we have authentic love for Him.

  • When trials and tribulations come,

  • we may even complain about God, and suspect God, and deny God.

  • This allows us to recognize that we are deeply corrupted with a satanic nature.

  • Yes, it does.

  • If our satanic nature, and our disposition cannot attain purification,

  • there will be no way to achieve authentic submission or authentic love for God.

  • In the past, we thought that because we believed in God for years,

  • had made the right sacrifices,

  • and worked hard for God that we had then become good,

  • and were people who submitted to God.

  • Only after experiencing the judgment and chastisement are we aware,

  • though in outward appearance we may toil arduously for Him,

  • we still lie and deceive God, do lip service to Him,

  • remaining opinionated, drawing attention to ourselves, and showing off.

  • Ultimately we realized our efforts were in fact only

  • to gain blessing and enter the kingdom of heaven,

  • all of which is bargaining with God.

  • How can this be authentic submission to God?

  • It's not even love for God!

  • Even so, we shamelessly said we were the most God-loving, the most submissive.

  • This is truly senseless; we don't know God at all.

  • In the revelation and judgment of God's words,

  • we know that God sees into everything,

  • and we fear and tremble in our hearts

  • when we feel His immense holiness and righteousness

  • and that His disposition is unoffendable.

  • We feel that as terribly satanic as we are,

  • we are ashamed to see God, unworthy to live before Him,

  • then we fall down on the ground, wailing in repentance,

  • cursing and hitting ourselves, and slapping our faces.

  • Then we can see that we live in our satanic disposition,

  • and haven't lived like a human being at all,

  • and don't deserve to call ourselves human.

  • Only once we've experienced many judgments,

  • refinements, trials, prunings and dealings,

  • do we gradually understand some truths,

  • and see through to the truth of our corruption.

  • At that time, we have some authentic knowledge of God,

  • and at last begin to revere God and to submit to God in our heart.

  • This is entering the right track of faith.

  • Only after going through God's judgment and chastisement.

  • Thanks be to God!

  • Their witness is so good. (Yes.)

  • Were it not for the judgment of the words of God,

  • we would never have seen the true picture of our deep corruption by Satan,

  • we would never have known the source of our sinning against and resisting God,

  • and even less would we know how to free ourselves from sin

  • to become truly obedient to God.

  • Were it not for the strict judgment of the words of God,

  • we could not know His righteous, majestic, and unoffendable disposition;

  • nor could we grow a heart that fears God,

  • and nor could we become someone who fears God and departs from evil.

  • This is a fact.

  • If God didn't incarnate,

  • who on earth could do the work of judgment in those crucial last days of the world?

  • No one could.

  • Who could show to man God's unoffendable, holy, and righteous disposition?

  • No one could.

  • Only God can do this work.

  • If God did not incarnate, whose words would have such power, and authority

  • to be able to judge us, cleanse us,

  • to save us who have been deeply and terribly corrupted from sin?

  • Only the words of God have such authority and power. (Yes.)

  • Only God can judge people and purify people. (Correct.)

  • Almighty God's words and work completely show His status and identity as God,

  • and they prove that He is the great Creator,

  • and the appearance of the one true God!

  • Amen!

  • We have recognized the voice of God in the speech of Almighty God,

  • and seen God's appearance.

  • Why are there so many in recent years

  • who abandon everything to bear witness for these words?

  • Why have there been so many people who risk being caught, persecuted, and killed by the CCP

  • as they spare no effort bearing witness for Almighty God's work?

  • Why have so many people preferred to endure the abandonment, humiliation,

  • and banishment of religious people

  • so they can go one door after spreading the gospel to them?

  • It is because they have heard the voice of God,

  • and have welcomed the appearance of Him.

  • They have answered God's demands,

  • and relay the message,

  • Amen!

  • Do you all agree that this is the Lord there knocking on the door?

  • Yes, this is the Lord knocking on our door.

  • Yes, it is.

  • This really is the Lord knocking on our door!

  • And will we open the door for the Lord?

  • Yes!

  • Of course we will!

  • We'd be fools not to open the door! (Yes.)

  • So, when the Lord sends people to knock on our doors,

  • should we seek out the true way and try to hear the voice of the Lord?

  • Seeking out the true way is necessary;

  • if we don't investigate,

  • how can we hear the voice of the Lord? (Right, we can't!)

  • In the past, we were so foolish.

  • When the Lord knocked on our door,

  • we didn't open it to welcome the Lord. (It's true.)

  • The more the Lord knocked, the harder we closed the door,

  • as if to keep false Christs and prophets from deceiving us;

  • how foolish and ignorant!

  • Thank the Lord!

  • Now I understand the meaning of "the Lord knocks on the door."

  • In the past I did not know what knocking at the door was.

  • I used to ponder, perhaps one day while I slept, God would suddenly knock!

  • Who's there?

  • The Lord would say: It's Me, Lord Jesus.

  • So I'd go open the door, and the Lord would take me up.

  • So, that's what I thought knocking at the door was!

  • Now that I think about it, I was naive and laughable.

  • I used to think, when the Lord knocks, how will He do it?

  • How could the Lord knock while riding on a white cloud?

  • No matter how I pondered it, I couldn't figure it out.

  • Today the clouds and mist have become a clear sky,

  • and I understand that when the Lord of the last days returns to knock on the door,

  • He speaks to people in words,

  • and knocks on the doors of human hearts with His words.

  • Amen! Thank the Lord!

  • I am really lucky to have heard Almighty God's words.

  • How is everyone's state of mind now?

  • Is everyone pretty excited?

  • Yes!

  • Today, we heard the voice of God,

  • and were brought before the throne of God to attend the wedding feast of the Lamb.

  • How extremely fortunate! (Yes.)

  • This good fortune came at such a cost!

  • Thank God!

  • These past years,

  • so many brothers and sisters have borne witness that the Lord had already come.

  • The Lord kept knocking at our doors,

  • but we were deceived and terribly misled by our pastor.

  • We believed that if the Lord Jesus didn't descend on a cloud, he was a fake.

  • We locked out the Lord so many times, even driving away brothers and sisters.

  • How we wounded God's heart!

  • If God did not love us so much,

  • if our brothers and sisters fearing no hardship, risking imprisonment,

  • hadn't kept preaching the work of Almighty God,

  • we wouldn't have heard the Lord's voice,

  • and wouldn't be able to welcome the Lord.

  • Yes. That's right.

  • How great God's love is!

  • Amen! Thank God!

  • Only now am I able to see that God continues sending people

  • to knock on the doors of those who thirst for His return (Amen!)

  • to bear witness for the words of Almighty God. (Yes.)

  • Finally, my heart is open.

  • Thus the words of God gradually resolved so many errors in my belief in God,

  • and finally opened the door of my heart, (Thank God!)

  • allowing me to hear the Lord's voice, and welcome His return!

  • Thank God!

  • I'm so thankful for His salvation!

  • Thank the Lord! We've finally welcomed the Lord!

  • The long-awaited day has arrived!

  • The Lord didn't abandon us!

  • Without knowing how, we've arrived at the wedding feast of the Lamb.

  • We are truly thankful!

  • Thank the Lord!

  • Thank God!

The Lord is knocking at the door,
