Utterances of Christ | Chapter 42


     How great are the deeds of Almighty God! How wondrous! How marvelous! Seven trumpets sound, seven thunders are sent forth, seven bowls are poured out—this will be immediately manifested openly and there can be no doubt. God’s love comes upon us every day and only Almighty God can save us; whether we meet misfortune or receive blessing is entirely due to Him, and we men have no way of deciding this. Those who wholeheartedly dedicate themselves to God will certainly be bestowed with great blessing, while those who seek to preserve their lives will suffer the loss of their lives; all things and all matters are in the hands of Almighty God. Don’t halt your steps anymore. Enormous change comes to heaven and earth; man has no way to hide and there is only bitter wailing, there is no other choice. Follow the current work of the Holy Spirit, each man should be clear within himself about the step to which His work has progressed, no more needing to be reminded by others. Now come before Almighty God often, and ask Him for everything. He will surely enlighten you within and at crucial times He will protect you. Have no fear! He already possesses your whole being and with His protection and His care, what is there for you to fear? Today the achievement of God’s will is at hand, whoever is fearful will stand to lose. I am not telling you nonsense. Open up your spiritual eyes, and heaven will change in an instant. What is there to fear? With a gentle move of His hand, heaven and earth are immediately destroyed. What is the use of man worrying? Are not all things in the hands of God? If He says that heaven and earth are to change, then they will change. If He says that we are to be made complete, then we will be made complete. There is no need for man to be anxious, he should move ahead calmly. However, he should pay much heed and be very watchful. Heaven may change in an instant! Man’s naked eyes can be opened wide and yet be unable to see anything. Quickly be watchful, the will of God has been accomplished, His project has been completed, His plan has succeeded, His sons have all arrived at His throne, and they judge all nations and all peoples with Almighty God. Those who have been persecuting the church, and cruelly injuring God’s sons, will be severely punished, that is for certain! Those who truly give themselves to God, and uphold everything, God will certainly love them for all eternity, without ever changing!

The Storm Caused at Home by the May 28 Zhaoyuan Case
Enhui, China
I’m an ordinary country woman, and I would often be weighed down by the strenuous burdens of the household. Because of this, my temperament became quite violent, and my husband and I were always at each other’s throats day in and day out. Our lives simply couldn’t go on like that. Whenever I was suffering, I would yell, “Heavens! Please save me!” In 2013, the work of Almighty God in the last days chanced upon me. Through reading the word of God and attending gatherings with brothers and sisters, I became certain that Almighty God had been the God whom I had cried out to in my suffering, and then gladly accepted Almighty God’s work in the last days.

The Church of Almighty God | Coming Home

Coming Home
By Muyi, South Korea
God’s love overflowing is freely given to man, God’s love is around him. Man, innocent and pure, without a care to tie him down, lives in bliss in the eyes of God. … If you are a person of conscience and with humanity, you will feel warm, being cared for and loved, you will feel blessed with happiness” (“How Important God’s Love for Man Is” in Follow the Lamb and Sing New Songs). Every time I start to sing this hymn of the word of God, it’s hard to keep down the emotions stirring inside me. That is because I was once far astray from God and went against Him. I was like a lost sheep, unable to find the road home, and it was God’s steadfast love that led me to return home. In what follows, I wish to share my experience of returning to God’s house with both those brothers and sisters who are part of the Lord as well as those friends who have not yet turned to God.

I Have Come to Know How to Distinguish Between the True Christ and False Christs
Chuanyang, United States
In 2010, the winter in the United States made me feel very cold. In addition to the bitter cold from the combination of wind and snow, what was even more serious was that my heart had been invaded and attacked by a “cold wave.” For those of us in the interior decorating business, winter is the hardest time of the year, because once winter starts there is very little work. We even face losing our jobs. This year was my first year in the United States, I was fresh off the boat, and I felt that everything was unfamiliar to me. Renting an apartment, finding a job, nothing was easy, and my days were full of hardships. It got to the point to where I was borrowing money to rent an apartment. Being faced with this kind of predicament put me in a bout of sadness, and I felt like the days were really hard to bear. At night I faced the ice-cold wall, with so much pain in me that all I wanted to do was cry.

The Church of Almighty God | Saved in a Different Way

Saved in a Different Way

By Huang Lin, China
I used to be an ordinary believer in the Pentecostal Church, and ever since I started believing in the Lord I never once missed a meeting. In particular, it was now the time of the last days and the prophecies in the Bible about the Lord’s return had basically been fulfilled. The Lord would soon return, and so I attended meetings even more enthusiastically, eagerly looking forward to His return, lest I miss my chance to meet with the Lord.

The Church of Almighty God| Chapter 19


As the work of the Holy Spirit continues onward, God has once again ushered us into a new method of the Holy Spirit’s work. As a result, it is unavoidable that some have misunderstood Me and made complaints to Me. Some have resisted and opposed Me, and have scrutinized Me. However, I still mercifully wait for your repentance and reform. The change in the method of the Holy Spirit’s work is God Himself openly appearing. My word will remain unchanged! Since it is you that I am saving, I will not forsake you halfway down the road. But there are doubts inside of you and you want to turn back empty-handed. Some of you have stopped moving forward while others are observing and waiting. Still others are passively complying with the situation, and some are simply imitating what others are doing. You have really hardened your hearts! You have taken what I said to you and turned it into your own arrogance and boasting. Contemplate this further—this is nothing but the words of mercy and judgment coming upon you. You are indeed rebellious. The Holy Spirit speaks directly and dissects directly. You should be afraid. Do not act recklessly or do anything rash. Do not be vain, arrogant, or opinionated! You should focus more on putting My word into practice, and live out My word everywhere you go, so that My word may truly transform you from the inside and that My disposition may be manifested in you. These are true results.

The Church of Almighty God | I Have Found a True Home

I Have Found a True Home
Yangyang, USA
When I was three years old my father passed away. At that time my mother had just given birth to my younger brother, and my grandmother, owing to superstition, said that it was my mother and younger brother that caused my father’s death. For lack of a better option mother had to take my younger brother to her father’s house to live, so from the start of my earliest memories I was living together with my grandpa and grandma. Although my grandpa and grandma treated me well I still felt lonely and really wanted to be together with my mom and little brother. I hoped for the same kind of motherly love that other kids received. Really, what I was asking for wasn’t much, all I wanted was a true family, a mother who loved me dearly, who I could share my true feelings with. But even this small ask turned into an extravagant hope.
