The
Eastern Lightning testifies that God has incarnated in the last days
to do the work of judgment Himself. And yet God's work in the Age of
Law was done by using Moses. So can't God's work of judgment in the
last days be done in the same way, by using people? Why does God need
to incarnate and do it Himself? Almighty God says, "The
work of judgment is God's own work, so it must naturally be done by
God Himself; it cannot be done by man in His stead. Because judgment
is the conquering of man through the truth, it is unquestionable that
God still appears as the incarnate image to do this work among men"
(The Word Appears in the Flesh).
Storyline:
Lin
Bo'en was an elder at a house church in China. During all his years
as a believer, he felt honored to suffer for the Lord, and valued the
knowledge and attainment of the Lord Jesus Christ above anything else
in the world. One fateful day, he went out to preach and heard some
shocking news: The Lord Jesus has returned in the flesh, and He is
Christ of the last days—Almighty God! Lin Bo'en was puzzled. When
the Lord returns, He is supposed to descend with the clouds, so why
would He incarnate Himself and do His work in secret? What mysteries
were hidden behind God's incarnation? If the Lord has truly returned,
why haven't we been raptured? … An intense debate unfolds between
Lin Bo'en and his co-workers and the preachers from the Church of Almighty God … Will they finally be able to understand that
Almighty God is the return of the Lord Jesus, the appearance of God
in the flesh?
