Once So Foolish, I Have Finally Woken Up Today

I was formerly a preacher of the “Praise Church.” Since May 1999, I had often heard the elders say, “The ‘Eastern Lightning’ is a cult. Those people are together committing adultery. If you don’t obey them, they will cut off your ears, gouge out your eyes, or even cut your flesh into pieces. They will also trick you into going somewhere outside the town and shut you into a basement… These people are very crafty. They specially go to deceive people in various churches. If any stranger comes to our church, we must inspect him and verify his identity. If there is any flaw in it, he must be from the ‘Eastern Lightning.’ Then drive him away immediately…” So, I kept the elders’ “good words” in mind and went around telling the brothers and sisters not to accept the “Eastern Lightning,” and I also told them that it was the deception of Satan. When I myself met the preachers of the “Eastern Lightning,” I refused them all relentlessly, and I even told the brothers and sisters in what harsh ways I treated those preachers and how I drove them away so that they could learn from me. I, being so foolish, did many things resisting Almighty God. In the end, it was under Almighty God’s enlightenment and illumination that I woke up.

Praise Song "For Whom Man Should Live"

For Whom Man Should Live

I

Wasn’t clear for whom man should live. Now I’ve got the answer for it.

I used to live just for myself, seeking only status and fame.

Prayer to God full of fine words, yet holding to my own way in real life.

Faith based upon future and fate, I have no truth or reality.

Rituals and rules, confining my faith; I was left with nothing but emptiness.

Failing to live as a human, I don’t deserve God’s love for me.

II

My heart has been awakened now, telling me I should repay God’s love.

I hate myself for I had no conscience, disobeying God and breaking His heart.

Never have I cared for God’s heart; never was I concerned about His words.

Without conscience, having no sense, how can I be listed as man?

God’s judgment makes me see, I was deeply corrupted by Satan.

Evil, this world, full of traps; truth is what a believer should choose.

O dear God, You love me so, doing all You can to make me saved.

What You’ve done for me, I’ll keep in mind! I will never ever forget.

Care for God’s heart, that’s all my will. I am determined to pursue the truth.

Consuming myself to spend for God, offering myself to repay His love,

offering myself to repay His love.

Gospel Movie clip "Break the Shackles and Run" (2) - Is Everything in the Bible God's Word? 01

    Like many religious people with faith in the Lord, Elder Li has always felt that "everything in the Bible was inspired by God," "the Bible is the word of God," and "the Bible represents God." These conceptions had long formed the basis for his faith. They had taken root in his heart and had become both an obstacle to his studying the true way as well as bonds that prevented him from accepting the true way. As preachers of the Church of Almighty God patiently read to Elder Li about God's word and fellowshiped with him about the truth, he finally understood that not all of the Bible was inspired by God, but it contains the words of God and the words of man. Elder Li was now free from the bonds and shackles of these religious conceptions.

The Arrogant Me Was Conquered by God’s Word At Last

I was formerly a co-worker in the “Justification by Faith Church.” In February 1992, I turned to the Lord. Later, I made a resolution before the Lord that I would devote all my life to Him. Since then, I pursued hard. I never missed any church meetings or Bible study meetings. In 1994, I became a preacher in the church, and in 1996, I began to preach in the co-workers’ meetings.
