2019 Gospel Song "No One Is Aware of God's Arrival" | The Lord Jesus Has Returned to the World

No one’s aware of God’s arrival,

no man welcomes His coming.

And furthermore, nobody knows

all the things He’ll be doing.

Gospel Movie "Break Through the Snare" (7) - Why Pastors and Elders Convict the Eastern Lightning

2,000 years ago, when the Lord Jesus did the work of redemption, He suffered wild slander and condemnation by the Jewish religious community. The Jewish leaders joined forces with the Roman government and nailed Him to the cross. In the last days, Almighty God—the Lord Jesus returned in the flesh—has arrived in China to do the work of judgment. Again, He faces the frenzied condemnation, suppression, and arrest this time by the Chinese Communist government and the religious world. The widespread rumors and misconceptions that judge and defame the Church of Almighty God are like an invisible snare, enshrouding and controlling innumerable believers. The tragedy of history repeats itself …

God Has Made a Group of Overcomers in China

I
Understand that as one who believes in God, in receiving His work in the last days, you’ve received glory and salvation as God works His plan through you. God’s work in the universe has focused on you. All of His efforts have been devoted to you. God has sacrificed everything for you, and bestowed the work of the Spirit upon you. You are the fortunate, the lucky ones. He has shifted His glory from Israel to manifest His plan through you, the heirs to His glory and inheritance. You are the fortunate, the lucky ones. He has shifted His glory from Israel to manifest His plan through you, the heirs to His glory and inheritance.

II
Before, you heard but didn’t understand the true meaning of these wondrous words: “For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, works for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.” Now you are fully aware, the significance they hold. These words will be fulfilled in the last days, upon those who are cruelly afflicted by the great red dragon, the enemy of God. Because it persecutes God, believers in this land suffer torment. That’s why, God’s promise will be realized in them. You are the fortunate, the lucky ones. He has shifted His glory from Israel to manifest His plan through you, the heirs to His glory and inheritance. You are the fortunate, you are the lucky ones. You are the fortunate, you are the lucky ones.

III
God carries out His work in a land that opposes Him; His work suffers great hindrance, His words cannot be fulfilled soon. So His people are refined as they wait and suffer. God’s work is difficult in the great red dragon’s land. It is through this struggle that God does this step of work to manifest His wisdom and His wondrous deeds, to make these people perfect and complete. Due to their suffering and poor caliber, their satanic disposition formed in this filthy land, God works to purify, purify and conquer them, that He may gain glory and witnesses to His deeds. This is the meaning of all sacrifice He makes. God conquers through those who oppose Him, to manifest His power. In the unclean land, only people there are worthy of inheriting His glory. God’s power is great, but must be revealed in the impure land, as is His will. God’s power is great, but must be revealed in the impure land, as is His will. God’s power is great, but must be revealed in the impure land, as is His will. God’s power is great, but must be revealed in the impure land, as is His will. You are the fortunate, you are the lucky ones. You are the fortunate, you are the lucky ones.

Cho Yeonghan was a pastor of a church in Korea. He was zealous in serving the Lord for decades and earned great respect from the believers. In recent years, the church became desolate day by day. More and more evils emerged, and even he himself was often afflicted by sin. Thus, he felt extremely miserable and confused…. After much consideration, he gave up his post as a pastor and left his denomination to seek the true way that could free him from sin. He visited several other denominations, but their desolation and degeneration brought him into severer loss and helplessness. Earnestly, he prayed, “O Lord! Where are you? …” Out of surprise, when investigating the word of Almighty God, he found that the Lord Jesus has come back and He is Almighty God, Christ of the last days.

The Church Almighty God | Love God | Gospel Movie "Honor and Dishonor"

Jiang Ming is a preacher of the Church of Almighty God. In her thirteen years of preaching the gospel, she suffered exclusion and revilement from the religious people and was even sent to prison because she testified about the return of the Lord. It was Almighty God’s word that encouraged her constantly and strengthened her in agony and weakness. She came to know that it was an honor to bear humiliation with God Most High, so she kept proclaiming God’s name in spite of all difficulties. Under the guidance of God, she and the brothers and sisters cooperated together with one mind and had several intense debates with the religious people. In the end, truth prevailed over fallacy. More and more true believers in God were conquered by the word of Almighty God and were certain that Almighty God is the return of the Lord Jesus. They accepted God’s work of the last days in succession and thus Jiang Ming was glorified with God!

Almighty God’s Word | Chapter 1. Understanding Nature and Putting Truth Into Practice

1. People Do Not Thoroughly Understand Their Own Natures

You currently know about some of your own difficulties, you know the corruption that usually happens easily, and which things are easy for you to do; however, the most difficult thing is being able to control yourselves. You don’t know when you will do something or which serious things you will do. Perhaps there is something that you thought you would never do, but in a given time or environment that happened; you really did it and said it. These unexpected things are things that people are not able to control; how can this be? It is because people nowadays do not thoroughly understand the substance of their own natures; they do not really understand or deeply recognize their own substance in several big ways; therefore putting truth into practice is very strenuous for them. For example, if a person is quite deceitful, and dishonest in his words and deeds, then what will he say when you ask him what his biggest shortcomings are? He will say: “I am a little deceitful.” He will merely say he is a little deceitful, but he won’t say that his nature is deceitful, and he won’t say that he is a deceitful person. He doesn’t see his own nature all that deeply, he doesn’t see it as critically or thoroughly as other people see it. As other people see it, this person is too deceitful and crooked; every word he speaks carries lies, his words and actions are never honest, but he doesn’t see how deep it is. Even if he recognized it a little, it would only be a superficial recognition. So when he speaks and works, he always reveals something about his nature, yet he is unaware of it. He thinks that he is being honest in what he is doing and that he is doing things in accordance with truth. Actually, from the perspective of bystanders, this person is very crooked and deceitful; he is still dishonest in his words and actions. This is to say that there is always a huge discrepancy between the way people understand their own natures and the way God has revealed human nature. This is not a mistake in what God reveals, but rather it is mankind’s profound lack of understanding of his nature. People do not have a fundamental or substantial understanding of themselves, but rather they focus on and devote their energy to their actions and outward expressions. Even if someone occasionally said something about understanding himself, it wouldn’t be very profound. No one has ever thought that they are this type of person or have this type of nature for doing this type of thing or revealing something in a certain aspect. God has revealed the nature and substance of man, but man understands that their way of doing things and way of speaking is flawed and defective; therefore it is a strenuous task for people to put truth into practice. People think that their mistakes are merely momentary manifestations, which are revealed if they are not careful, rather than being revelations of their nature. People that understand themselves in this way are not able to put truth into practice, because they are not able to accept truth as truth and do not thirst after truth; therefore, when putting truth into practice, they perfunctorily follow the rules. People do not view their own natures as being too corrupt, and believe that they do not reach the level of being destroyed or punished. They think that it is not a big deal to lie occasionally, and they are much better than before; but in fact, according to the standards, there is a big difference, because people only have some practices that outwardly don’t violate truth, but in fact they are not putting truth into practice.

2. Understanding Your Own Nature and Controlling Yourself From Doing Things Excessively

Changing actions does not imply that people’s natures have also changed. The reason for saying this is because actions do not fundamentally change people’s old appearances or change people’s natures. Only after people understand their natures can they practice deeply rather than just obey the rules. People nowadays are not up to par when they put truth into practice; they do not completely meet the requirements of truth. People only put some truth into practice, practice parts of truth. They only practice the truth in certain situations and in certain environments. They do not put truth into practice in every environment and in every context. Occasionally when one is happy or in a good situation, or when everyone is fellowshiping together and he feels more at ease on the inside, he will momentarily do some things in accordance with truth and say some reasonable remarks; but when with negative people or with people who have fallen behind, he will be a little off and will not behave very properly. This is where people do not have a persevering attitude toward putting truth into practice. Rather, this practice is carried out under the influence of occasional and temporary moods and environments; it is also because you do not have a grasp on your own situation and nature. Therefore, sometimes you do something that you would never expect. Do you believe Me? You only understand some situations and don’t have a grasp on your own nature; therefore, you won’t be able to guarantee what things you do in the future, that is, you won’t have absolute control. Sometimes, you are able to put truth into practice in a situation as if you have changed a little, but in another environment you don’t put truth into practice. You can’t help yourself. You don’t do it this time, but soon after you do it and everything inside still exists. This proves that you still don’t see this matter thoroughly or deeply understand it, and you don’t deeply understand your corrupt disposition and ultimately you will do it. Under normal circumstances, if you were able to thoroughly understand your nature and despise it, then you would be able to control yourself and put truth into practice.

3. The Substance of People Who Don’t Put Truth Into Practice Is Not Fond of Truth

Nowadays, people do not pay close attention to putting truth into practice, they only pay attention to coming together to fellowship and satisfy their own state of mind so that they do not feel uncomfortable or negative. They don’t consider setting their minds to practicing the truth. No matter how much it helps you at the time, after the matter, it doesn’t serve any real purpose, because you only pay attention to understanding or listening to the truth, but don’t pay attention to practicing the truth. Who among you have summarized how to put which truths into practice for which situations? None! How can a summary be drawn up? One must have personal experiences in order to draw a summary; merely superficial speech won’t do. This is people’s greatest area of difficulty—there is no interest in putting truth into practice. Being able to put truth into practice concerns personal pursuits; some people equip themselves with truth to spread the gospel, and some do it to assist the church, but they don’t do it to put truth into practice and transform themselves. People who pay attention to these things have a difficult time putting truth into practice. This is also an area of difficulty for people.

4. Putting Truth Into Practice Stops at Outer Actions

Some people say: I feel that I am able to put some truth into practice now, it’s not that I can’t put any truth into practice. In some environments, I can do things in accordance with truth, which means I count as a person who puts truth into practice, and I count as a person who has the truth. Actually, in contrast with the states of the past, or in contrast with when you first believed in God, there is a little transformation. In the past, you didn’t understand anything, and you didn’t know what the truth was or what a corrupt disposition was. Now you know some things and you are able to have some good practices, but this is only a small part of the transformation; it is not truly a transformation of your disposition, because you don’t carry out advanced and deep truths that involve your nature. If there is some transformation, it is in contrast to your past, and this transformation is only a small transformation of your humanity. However, when compared with the highest state of truth, you are way off the mark. This is to say that you have not hit the mark when putting truth into practice.

Sometimes people who are in these types of situations don’t know what is going on: I am not negative and have enthusiasm, but when it comes to putting truth into practice and understanding the truth, I feel that there is no way for me and that I don’t have any interest in this aspect. How can this be? Sometimes you don’t see this situation very clearly and are forced to act superficially doing this and that, yet your actual difficulties remain unresolved. You feel: I have done it and have been devoted; why do I still not feel so assured? This is because your conduct and actions are based on your good intentions; they are done with subjective diligence, but you have not sought God’s will and you have not done things in accordance with the requirements of truth. You are off by this much, which results in you always feeling distant from God’s requirements and that you are not assured and unconsciously become negative. Personal subjective desires and subjective diligence are very different than the requirements of truth; they are different with regard to their nature. People’s outer actions cannot replace truth, and actions are not completely done according to God’s intentions; rather truth is the true expression of God’s will. Some people who spread the gospel feel that they are not idle, and they wonder: How can You say I am not putting truth into practice? Now I ask you: How much truth is in your heart? How many things have you done in accordance with truth during the time you have been spreading the gospel? Does your heart understand the will of God? You can’t even say if you are just doing things or are putting truth into practice, because you only emphasize using your practices to satisfy God and make God happy, but you don’t reciprocate God’s love with the conviction of “Seek God’s will in all things to satisfy God and accord with truth.” If you say you are putting truth into practice, then how much has your disposition changed during this time? How much has your love for God increased? These measures are sufficient to show whether or not you are putting truth into practice.

The Church of Almighty God | A Mystery Puzzling the Religious World | Gospel Movie "Ironclad Proofs—Exploration of the 'Trinity'"

He was a leader of a house church in China. For many years, he had been exploring the mystery of the “Triune God”: What’s the relationship between the three Spirits, the Holy Father, the Holy Son, and the Holy Spirit? What’s the difference of them? The Bible says that there is only one Spirit. If there is only one Spirit, why is it said that there are three? If there are three Spirits, how can they be one? One day, the words expressed by God who reappeared finally unlocked the mystery of the “Triune God,” which had puzzled him many years and puzzled the religious world for two thousand years….

7. Knowing the Work of the Holy Spirit Is of the Utmost Importance to Man’s Salvation

Knowing the Work of the Holy Spirit Is Very Important to Man’s Salvation

It is clear to those who truly experience the work of God, that obtaining salvation and perfection through faith in God is entirely dependent on the work of the Holy Spirit.

If you do not have the Holy Spirit’s work when it comes to your faith in God, then everything is just idle chit-chat. If you are not able to obtain the work of the Holy Spirit, then you are destined to be a target for elimination. Only those who obtain the Holy Spirit’s work can understand the truth and enter God’s word.

The Origin and Development of the Church of Almighty God

The Church of Almighty God came into being because of the appearance and work of the returned Lord Jesus—Almighty God, Christ of the last days, and also under His righteous judgment and chastisement. The church is comprised of all those who truly accept Almighty God’s work of the last days and are conquered and saved by God’s word. It was entirely founded by Almighty God personally, and is personally led and shepherded by Him, and it was by no means set up by any man. This is a fact acknowledged by all the chosen people in the Church of Almighty God. Whoever is used by God incarnate is predestined by God, and personally appointed and testified to by God, just as Jesus personally chose and appointed the twelve disciples. Those who are used by God only cooperate with His work, and cannot do God’s work in His stead. The church was not founded by those who are used by God, nor do God’s chosen people believe in or follow them. The churches of the Age of Grace were not set up by Paul and other apostles, but were the product of the work of the Lord Jesus and founded by the Lord Jesus Himself. Likewise, the Church of Almighty God in the last days has not been established by those used by God, but is the product of the work of Almighty God. The people who are used by God only water, supply, and lead the churches, performing the duty of man. Although God’s chosen people are led, watered, and supplied by those who are used by God, they believe in and follow none other than Almighty God, and accept and obey His words and work. This is a fact that no one can deny. Because of the appearance and work of God incarnate, many true believers of the Lord in all religious denominations and sects have finally heard the voice of God, have seen that the Lord Jesus has already come and carried out the work of judgment in the last days, and they have all confirmed that Almighty God is the returned Lord Jesus—and as a result, they have accepted His work of the last days. All those who are conquered by the word of Almighty God become subject to His name. Therefore, all the chosen people of the Church of Almighty God pray to Almighty God, and follow, obey and worship Him. Having experienced God’s work of judgment and chastisement, the chosen people in China have come to appreciate His righteous disposition, and have seen His majesty and wrath, and so they have been completely conquered by God’s word and have fallen down before Almighty God, and are willing to obey and accept the judgment and chastisement of God’s word. Thus, they have gained God’s salvation.

  God gave His glory to Israel then moved it away from there,

  so that they may be reunited and associate with light,
  no longer have to search, search for the light.
  God will let all who are in search see the light again
  and the glory He had in Israel,
  see God has come down upon a white cloud among men,
  see the clouds of white, see the clusters of fruit,
  see Jehovah God of Israel, God of Israel,
  see the Master of the Jews, see the longed-for Messiah,
  and the full appearance of Him persecuted by kings throughout the ages.
