Utterances of Christ | Chapter 21

The work of the Holy Spirit has now brought you into a new heaven and a new earth. Everything is being renewed, everything is in My hands, everything is beginning anew! With their notions, people are unable to think it through, and to them it does not make sense, but it is I who am at work, and My wisdom is in it. You may therefore put down all of your notions and opinions. You may concern yourselves with eating and drinking the word of God in submission, with no misgivings whatsoever. Working this way I am shouldering a sacred responsibility. In fact people do not need to be a particular way. Rather, it is God doing miraculous things, making manifest His omnipotence. People may not brag unless they brag about God. Otherwise they will suffer loss. God lifts the needy from the dust and the humble must be made high. I will use My wisdom in all its forms to govern the universal church, to govern all nations and all peoples, so that they are all within Me, and so that all of you in the church might submit to Me.

Utterances of Christ | Chapter 11

Am I your God? Am I your King? Have you truly allowed Me to reign as King inside you? You should thoroughly reflect on yourself. Did you not scrutinize and refuse the new light and even go so far as to stop without following it as it came? For this you shall undergo judgment and fall to your doom, you will be judged and flogged by the iron rod and you will not feel the work of the Holy Spirit. You will quickly cry and bend your knees in worship all while wailing. I have always told you and I have always said to you and I have told you everything. Think carefully back on it, when have I ever failed to tell you something? Nonetheless, there are some people who persist in doing things the wrong way. They are lost in a haze of doubts that blocks the sun and they never see the light. Isn’t this because their will of “the self” is too strong or their own notions are too great? How can you see Me in your eyes? How can you have room for Me in your heart? When you have failed, when you are incapable, and when you are out of options, only then do you pray to Me. Well, why don’t you do things on your own now? You people! It is your old selves that have ruined you!

The Church of Almighty God｜ Chapter 16

     After the witnessing of the Son of man, Almighty God revealed Himself publicly to us as the Sun of righteousness. This is the transfiguration on the mount! It is now becoming more and more real, and more of a reality. We have seen the method of the work of the Holy Spirit, God Himself has emerged from the fleshly body. He is under the control of neither man, nor space, nor geography; He transcends the boundaries of earth and sea, He reaches to the very ends of the universe, and all nations and all peoples are listening quietly to His voice. As we open our spiritual eyes we see that the word of God has emanated from His glorious body; it is God Himself emerging from the flesh. He is the real and complete God Himself. He speaks to us publicly, He is face-to-face with us, He advises us, He pities us, He waits for us, He comforts us, He disciplines us and judges us. He leads us by the hand and His concern for us burns like a flame within Him, with an eager heart He hastens us to awaken and enter into Him. His transcendent life has been wrought into all of us, and all who enter into Him shall achieve transcendence and overcome the world and all the evil ones, and rule together with Him. Almighty God is the spiritual body of God. If He ordains it, thus it shall be; if He speaks it, it will be, and if He commands it, then it is; He is the one true God! Satan is under His feet, in the bottomless pit. Everything in the universe is in His hands; the time has come, and all shall return to nothingness and be born anew.

The Word of God Guides Me Through the Snares

     As I go through the passage of God’s words, “Do You Know? God Has Done a Great Thing Among Men,” I cannot help but recall my experience two years ago of breaking free from the binds of rumors and returning before God.

Relevant Words of God:

The work that Jehovah did upon the Israelites established among humanity God’s earthly place of origin, which was also the sacred place where He was present. He confined His work to the people of Israel. At first, He did not work outside of Israel; instead, He chose a people He found suitable in order to restrict the scope of His work. Israel is the place where God created Adam and Eve, and out of the dust of that place Jehovah made man; this place became the base of His work on earth. The Israelites, who were the descendants of Noah and also the descendants of Adam, were the human foundation of Jehovah’s work on earth.

Introduction

The Word of God in the Last Days | "God Himself, the Unique (VI) God's Holiness (III)" (Part One)

Almighty God says, "Satan uses fame and gain to control man’s thoughts until all they can think of is fame and gain. They struggle for fame and gain, suffer hardships for fame and gain, endure humiliation for fame and gain, sacrifice everything they have for fame and gain, and they will make any judgment or decision to both maintain and obtain fame and gain. In this way, Satan binds man with invisible shackles. These shackles are borne on people’s bodies, and they have not the strength nor courage to throw them off. So people trudge ever onward in great difficulty, unknowingly bearing these shackles. For the sake of this fame and gain, mankind becomes estranged from God and betrays Him. With each passing generation, mankind becomes more and more wicked, more and more darkened, and so in this way one generation after another is destroyed in the fame and gain of Satan."

Give up Religious Notions to Be Perfected by God

1

If you accept the judgment and chastisement of the word of God, drop religious ways, do not use old notions to measure God's new words, then you will have a future.But if you cling to the old things, treasuring them, there's no way to be saved,God will never notice you.In God's work and word,He does not refer to the old ways of history and things before.If you want to be made perfect, you must let go of past things.What was right or done by God must also be put aside.Even if it was the work of the Spirit, you must put it aside.This is what God requires.All must be renewed.

Afterward, I also read in the word of God where it says: “It is unacceptable for you not to know yourself. First heal your own sickness, and by means of eating and drinking My words more, contemplating My words, live life and do things according to My words; whether you are at home or in some other place, you should allow God to wield power within you. Cast off the flesh and naturalness. Always let God’s words have dominion within you. There is no need to worry that your life is not changing; you will slowly come to feel that your disposition has changed a great deal” (Utterances and Testimonies of Christ in the Beginning).

Different Viewpoints, Constant Conflicts
       I am a typical housewife, a good wife and a loving mother, I take good care of my husband and children, I’m hardworking and thrifty in running my household, and I’ve never recklessly spent my money. But something unimaginable happened to me. My son married a fashionable girl who really loved to have fun and dress up and follow the trends of the world. She pursued and purchased whatever was popular in the world, she threw away money by the handful, and however much she made each month was however much she spent. Since there was such a huge difference in our ways of thinking and living, my daughter-in-law and I often would be at loggerheads, we got into angry arguments, and our problems continued to get more and more intense.

God’s Words Guide Me to Learn How to Educate My Children (II)

Xiaoxue, Malaysia

One day after dinner, I taught my eldest son how to read Chinese—just the simple words, “Heaven, earth, people, and, earth, daddy, mommy….” I taught him quite a few times, but he still couldn’t write them. He would write the first word and then forget the next one. The anger inside me rose up, and I grabbed the ruler on the table and hit him several times. I shouted loudly: “How stupid you are! You cannot even learn these few words!” My eldest son was hit until he cried, “waah, waah” and broke free and ran to stand in the corner. I scolded him, “Come over here and keep writing!” My eldest son did not come over, so I grabbed hold of him and pulled him onto the chair. Seeing that my eldest son’s hand had been beaten red and swollen by me, I felt a stabbing pain in my heart. I cried and returned to my room and prayed to God: “God! As soon as my child displeased me, I could not control my anger. I don’t want to treat my children like this. God, may You help me.” After praying, I slowly calmed down.
