Full Gospel Movie "Faith in God 2 – After the Church Falls" | True Stories of Christians in China

Since the Chinese Communist Party came to power, it has continuously suppressed and persecuted Christianity and Catholicism in order to fully eradicate all religious beliefs and establish China as a zone of atheism. Particularly since Xi Jinping became President the CCP's attacks on faith have reached a peak, and even the officially sanctioned Three-Self Church is being eradicated and crosses are being torn down.

Question 14: In your belief in God, you all have your own ideas and opinions. It seems to me that your ideas and theories are feelings of subjective consciousness, and are of the illusory category of things. We Communists believe that materialism and the theory of evolution are truth, because they are in accord with science. Our country comprehensively provides materialist, evolutionist education from elementary school through university. Why is this? It is to imbue all young people and teenagers with atheist and evolutionist thinking from an early age, so that they all stay away from religion, and stay away from superstition, and so that they can scientifically and rationally explain all questions. Take, for example, the question of the origin of life. People in the past were ignorant and backward, and believed such stories as Pangu separating heaven and earth, and Nüwa making humans. As for Westerners, they believe that God created the human race. In fact, all of these are mythology and legend, and are not in accord with science at all. Ever since the appearance of the theory of evolution that explained the origin of the human race clearly, how humans evolved from apes, the theory of evolution has thoroughly invalidated the legends of God creating man. All things have evolved naturally. This is the only truth. Therefore we must believe in science, and in the theory of evolution. You are all educated, knowledgeable people. How can you go and believe in God? Would you be able to chat about your views?

Answer: You Communist Party members believe that materialism and the theory of evolution are the truth, and you revere Marx and Darwin. Then why is it that ever fewer people in the world believe in materialism and in the theory of evolution? Of the whole human race, believers in God make up the majority. Of all the people who genuinely believe in God, none believe in the theory of evolution. Even among people who don't believe in God, there are not many who completely believe in the theory of evolution. Are there humans nowadays who believe in Darwin? Are there people who recognize the theory of evolution as truth?

Question 11: You witness that both Jesus and Almighty God are Christ, the first and the last Christ. Our CCP does not recognize it. In The Internationale, it clearly said, “There has never been any savior of the world.” You insist on witnessing the advent of Christ the Savior. How can the CCP not condemn you? In our opinion, the Jesus whom Christians believe in was an ordinary man. He was even nailed on the cross. Even Judaism did not recognize Him as Christ. The incarnate Almighty God in the last days that you witness is also an ordinary person in fact. The CCP's documents describe it clearly that He has a surname and first name. This is also a fact. Why do you witness that such an ordinary person is Christ, the appearance of God? It is really incredible! No matter how you witness what truth has been expressed and how judgment work in the last days has been done by Almighty God, our CCP will not recognize that this person is God. I think you are just like those people of Christianity, Catholicism, and Eastern Orthodoxy who believe in Jesus, believing in a man as God. Isn't it ignorant? What exactly is God and the appearance and work of God? Does it mean that the mere expression of the truth and doing the work of God are the appearance of the true God? This is what we will never accept. If God can perform miracles and wonders, destroy the CCP and all those who resist Him, then we will recognize Him as the true God. If God appears in the sky, makes a thunderous roar that frightens the entire human race, that is the appearance of God. Then our CCP will recognize Him. Otherwise, the CCP will never acknowledge there is God.

Answer: I just don't understand, why is the CCP always hostile to God? Why does it always deny God? Why does it particularly hate the incarnate Christ? Why does the CCP define the Lord Jesus and Almighty God as an ordinary person, and deny the divine essence of Christ? You communists are atheists. You don't recognize the existence of God. How could you know the mystery behind the incarnation of God? Wasn't the appearance of the Lord Jesus a man when He became flesh?

Question 12: According to the government's propaganda materials, The Church of Almighty God was founded by someone named Zhao in northeastern China. This man is the high priest of The Church of Almighty God. He is leading the Church. Believers of The Church of Almighty God claim that he is someone used by the Holy Spirit. They often listen to the preaching of this person who is used by the Holy Spirit, and they listen to him in the administrative work of the church. Although you believers of Almighty God read the word of Almighty God, pray in the name of Almighty God, regard The Word Appears in the Flesh expressed by Almighty God as canonical doctrine, and communicate the word of Almighty God in your congregation, in any case, this person is the one who has the final say in The Church of Almighty God. So we are certain that The Church of Almighty God was created by this person. Both the CCP and the religious community characterize The Church of Almighty God as an organization of man. I think it is true. Do you understand this?

Answer: The CCP has studied The Church of Almighty God for more than 20 years, do you mean that is the result of such a study? Then tell me, who founded Christianity and Catholicism? Could it be Paul or Peter who was the founder? Who founded Judaism? Could it be Moses? Isn't it absurd? 

Question 5: The Bible says, “Let every soul be subject to the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. Whoever therefore resists the power, resists the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation” (Rom 13:1-2). Having believed in the Lord for many years, you should understand the meaning of this statement. The Bible was inspired by God after all. I believe that we believers of the Lord should obey those in office and power. I don’t know how you receive it. It doesn’t work in China if you defy the authorities. The Communist Party is a revolutionary party. If you disobey, it will revoke your life. To believe in the Lord in China, one must accept the Communist Party’s United Front and join the Three-Self Church. There is no other way out! You see, there are many believers of the Lord in the Three-Self Church who are loving and pious also. Can you say that they do not truly believe in the Lord? Those of you who believe in Almighty God insist on spreading the gospel and witnessing for God regardless of how the Communist Party persecutes and arrests you. Even when you are kept in prison, you still stand up to witness for the Lord and refuse to be Judas. Honestly speaking, this is what I admire about you. Conversely, talking about what we seek in our belief in the Lord, isn’t it all about our desire for a harmonious family and a peaceful life? Look at how prudent we people of the Three-Self Church are. We are a patriotic and church-loving organization that glorifies God and benefits the people. We neither offend the ruling authorities nor betray the Bible. We can openly worship the Lord in church without having to hide in fear. Isn't this the best of both worlds?

Answer: It seems that you have a unique interpretation of Paul’s word, which is different from what we receive. Ever since I believed in the Lord, I have experienced the Chinese Communist government’s coercion and persecution, I have been unable to understand Paul’s words “Let every soul be subject to the higher powers.” I feel Paul’s words cannot represent what the Lord Jesus meant because the Lord Jesus had never said anything about “be subject to the higher powers.” Nor did the Holy Spirit. I feel that believing in the Lord should mean obeying the Lord’s word. The word of man should not be treated as the truth and as the word of God.

 It was after years of praying and seeking, I finally see that the CCP is an evil group that resists God. If one obeys the CCP, he is betraying God. We all know that the CCP is an atheist party that has been openly denying and resisting God since its rise to power. It designates Christianity and Catholicism as cults, the Bible as a cultist book of which countless copies have been confiscated and burnt, and even wantonly arrests and persecutes Christians. Countless Christians were beaten to cripples or death, and countless families were shattered. The CCP even pursues overseas, using economic incentives, political pressure and other means to extradite Christians who have fled to various countries. The CCP's iniquitous resistance to God and victimization of Christians are so numerous that it is outrageous! Tell me, can God allow His chosen people to obey such a perverse and sacrilegious evil regime of Satan that is blatantly against God? If we obey the CCP, aren’t we standing on the side of Satan? Since the CCP insanely resists, imprecates and profanes God, and tries to stop us from believing in God, it is the enemy of God. If we obey the CCP, aren't we resisting and betraying God? Many Christians of past generations were persecuted and martyred for following and witnessing the Lord. Did they obey those in office and in power? Could their martyrdom have been self-invoked punishment for resisting the ruling power? Would Paul have dared to condemn the martyrs of the Lord? I think Paul would not. Then what was the basis of Paul’s word? Could it be that Paul did not discern that most of those in power and office were demons who resisted God? That’s why I have doubts about Paul's word. I even question Paul’s word that “All scripture is given by inspiration of God” because neither the Lord Jesus nor the Holy Spirit had so witnessed about the Bible. It makes me suspect that many of Paul's words originated from man’s intention. Hence I would not accept them as the truth. When I believe in God, I only obey the word of God and choose the way I should follow according to His word. As for the words of man, including those of the apostles, I would only use them as reference, even if they were written in the Bible. I would accept and obey them only if they are consistent with God’s word and the truth. Otherwise, I would not accept them. This is my point of view.

It is quite dangerous and difficult indeed for us to believe in the Lord in China. However, if we went by Paul's word to obey the satanic CCP regime and take the Three-Self Patriotic path, would we receive the praises of the Lord despite our physical safety? Would it guarantee us to be brought into kingdom of heaven when the Lord returns? I don’t think it’s possible. The Lord Jesus said, “Enter you in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leads to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leads to life, and few there be that find it” (Mat 7:13-14). “You shall indeed drink of the cup that I drink of; and with the baptism that I am baptized with shall you be baptized” (Mak 10:39). “And he that takes not his cross, and follows after me, is not worthy of me. He that finds his life shall lose it: and he that loses his life for my sake shall find it” (Mat 10:38-39). The words of the Lord clearly tell us that we should enter at the strait gate and narrow way that lead to eternal life. The Lord also said, “And he that takes not his cross, and follows after me, is not worthy of me” (Mat 10:38). If we go by Paul’s word and obey the ruling authorities, is that entering at the strait gate and taking the narrow way? Is that bearing the cross in following the Lord? When believing in the Lord, if we all obey those in power and office under the reign of the CCP, the devil Satan, aren't we becoming people who resist and betray God? Then who will be left to spread the gospel, witness for the Lord and follow the will of God? Can we receive the praises of the Lord, reach good destination and outcome, by believing in the Lord like this? The Three-Self Church is a vase of religious belief fabricated by the Chinese Communist Party that is completely controlled by the Chinese Communist government. It doesn’t speak about the pure truth in the Bible, doesn't speak about loving and obeying God. It only speaks about patriotic love organization, enriching one’s family and making a fortune, glorifying God and benefiting the people. This is enough to prove that the Three-Self Church is actually a false church that has been reduced to an accomplice of the CCP that suppresses underground house churches and dedicated to monitoring house church activities. They even join hands with the Chinese Communist government to arrest and persecute the brothers and sisters who spread the gospel to witness for God. Isn't this Satan’s instrument of politico-religious alliance? Pastor Feng, I would like to ask: When people of the Three-Self Church obey the Chinese Communist government, are they actually obeying God or Satan? Will God commend the captives and puppets that capitulate to Satan? Can God admit into the heavenly kingdom those recreants who drag out an ignoble existence under Satan’s domain? Now the Lord Jesus has returned. He is the incarnate Almighty God who expresses the truth to perform judgment work in the last days for the cleansing, salvation and perfection of man in order to bring man into God’s kingdom. Amidst God’s appearance and work of the last days, all believers are faced with a major test in which they will be revealed by their own class, just as the Lord Jesus had prophesied: “But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. … Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left” (Mat 24:37, 40-41). Almighty God’s appearance and work have revealed all people by their types. The tares and wheat, the good servants and evil servants, those who love the truth and those who hate the truth, have all been revealed by God’s work in the last days. It is time now to determine the outcome and destination of man. If man drags out an ignoble existence in fear of the CCP satanic regime’s coercion and persecution without courage to accept Almighty God’s work in the last days, what will be the outcome? Can this kind of men receive the Lord’s praises?

Question 8: What you said about going to hell for resisting God, I don’t believe it. Who has seen where hell is? What does hell look like? I don’t even know if God exists at all. I don’t recognize that God exists. Where is God after all? Who has seen God? If Almighty God is the true God, when the CCP so desperately condemns and attacks Almighty God, why hasn’t God annihilated it? If God reveals His omnipotence and destroys the Communist Party, then He is the true God. That way, mankind as a whole must acknowledge that Almighty God is the true God, even the CCP will have to prostrate and worship the true God. Who would dare to resist God? But what actually happened? What I saw was the CCP police arresting believers of God everywhere. Many of God’s believers were thrown into prison, tortured and maimed. Many of them were killed. However, did your God save them? How can this make one believe that the God you believe in is true? I cannot understand you at all. Is the God you believe in true or false? I am afraid that you don't even know. In that case, aren’t you being foolish? What is your basis in saying that the God you believe in is the true God? Can you explain it clearly?

Answer: You are an experienced person. About God’s existence and dominance, do you really know nothing? Since the creation of the world, God has done three stages of work for the salvation of mankind that has been corrupted by Satan. The work in the Age of Law and the Age of Grace was done in Israel and Judah. In those two stages of God’s work, many of His words were expressed through prophets and written in the Holy Bible. All the truths expressed by the incarnate God in the last days for the cleansing and salvation of mankind were recorded in The Word Appears in the Flesh.

 In the three stages of work, God twice became flesh to perform salvation work for mankind. The first time, God had become flesh as the Lord Jesus who was crucified for completing the work of redemption. It sensationalized the entire world. The gospel of the Lord Jesus has spread to the ends of the earth, reached every home and become a household name. Christianity has established churches in all countries and areas. So many people believe in Christianity! In the last days, God has become flesh, who is Almighty God, and done judgment work. It also sensationalized the entire world. The Word Appears in the Flesh expressed by Almighty God is proclaimed and attested to humanity as a whole. All who love the truth and seek God’s appearance and work heard the voice of God by reading the Bible and The Word Appears in the Flesh. Seeing the appearance and work of God, they determined the existence and dominance of God. Since you don’t know if God exists, why don’t you seek and study God’s work? Having lived a lifetime, even many unbelievers can conclude such words of wisdom like “Man’s destiny is determined by Heaven” and “When man acts, Heaven observes” and “Man proposes, God disposes.” Anyone with a conscience acknowledges retribution. Although man could not see God, he was able to sum up these words of wisdom. He was able to completely affirm the existence and domination of God. Those who only look for money and keep money in their hearts do not seek to study the appearance and work of God. They only see money, fame and profits in their eyes. They view status and power above all else. It is said in the Bible that only fools would say there is no God.

Although you are a CCP member, an atheist, don’t you believe in the will of Heaven? Don't you acknowledge that the fate of a person determines his life? Don’t you acknowledge the fact that “What goes around comes around”? This is enough to prove that God rules the world and mankind. From ancient times to the present, nations or races that had resisted God invariably ended up in ruination. It is too easy for God to annihilate a nation or a race. Recalling when the Lord Jesus was at work, Judaism’s leaders joined hands with the Roman government and crucified the Lord Jesus. Seventy years after the Lord, the nation of Israel was punished by God. After Israel ceased to exist, many Jews were killed. There was also the Roman regime that had resisted God and cruelly persecuted Christians for three hundred years. Finally, retributions befell the Roman Empire. It was destroyed by God. From these historical facts we can see that those who resisted God brought destruction to themselves. They were bound to be punished and destroyed by God. Since it took power, the CCP has been frantically arresting and slaughtering Christians. In particular, the appearance of Christ of the last days, Almighty God, at work in China has encountered even more lunatic condemnation and resistance by the CCP government. The CCP launched an overwhelming and all-out suppression against The Church of Almighty God, insanely hunting for Christ and brutally persecuting God's chosen people. It even fabricated all kinds of rumors to malign The Church of Almighty God as an attempt to incite and delude people to deny and alienate God, ruining the chance for mankind to receive salvation and dragging people to hell for punishment. The CCP’s countless acts of resistance to God and evil deeds have long infuriated God's disposition. At the conclusion of God’s judgment work in the last days, God will send down various disasters to destroy all the evil forces of Satan, and destroy the CCP, a satanic regime that is most resistant to God, to demonstrate God’s righteous and inviolable disposition. Almighty God says, “Wherever the incarnation appears, so the enemy is destroyed from that place. China is the first to be annihilated, to be laid to waste by the hand of God. God gives absolutely no quarter to China.” (“Interpretation of the Tenth Utterance” in The Word Appears in the Flesh) “He who defies the work of God shall be sent to hell; any country that defies the work of God shall be destroyed; any nation that rises up to oppose the work of God shall be wiped from this earth, and shall cease to exist” (“God Presides Over the Fate of All Mankind” in The Word Appears in the Flesh). Each of God’s words will be fulfilled. The CCP has resisted God, harmed so many people who believe in God, and committed so much evil to bring such immense calamities to the Chinese people. How can it not be imprecated and annihilated by God? Yeah, how can it not be? Look at the increasingly frequent and intense disasters in China, these are retributions for resisting God. Father, don’t follow the CCP to resist God anymore. As the saying goes, “The culmination of injustice is perdition.” When the catastrophe descends and the CCP is destroyed, it will be too late for you to regret it. Almighty God says, “My mercy is expressed upon those who love Me and deny themselves. And the punishment visited upon the wicked is precisely proof of My righteous disposition and, even more, testimony to My wrath. When disaster comes, famine and plague will befall all those who oppose Me and they will weep” (“Prepare Sufficient Good Deeds for Your Destination” in The Word Appears in the Flesh). “If mankind wishes to have a good fate, if a country wishes to have a good fate, then man must bow down to God in worship, repent and confess before God, or else the fate and destination of man will unavoidably end in catastrophe” (“Prepare Sufficient Good Deeds for Your Destination” in The Word Appears in the Flesh).The word of Almighty God is very clear. Only by believing in God and worshiping God can mankind receive God’s care and protection, and survive the great catastrophe!

Question 10: I have been working for the United Front for many years, and I have studied various religious beliefs. Christianity, Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy are all orthodox religions that believe in Jesus. But your belief in Almighty God is so different. According to CCP documents, The Church of Almighty God does not belong to Christianity at all. You are preaching the gospel to various sects under the banner of Christianity that don’t recognize you as a Christian denomination. So I will never allow you to believe in Almighty God. You can only believe in Christianity if you want. The government’s persecution will be lighter this way. If you get arrested and incarcerated for believing in Almighty God, your life will be in danger. The CCP has already seen that all those who believe in Almighty God are invariably followers of Christ in the last days who are Christ’s disciples and apostles. What the CCP fears most is the proclamations and testimonies of the book The Word Appears in the Flesh expressed by Christ in the last days, as well as this die-hard group that follows Christ in the last days. We have studied the history of Christianity. What Judaism and the Roman Empire feared most were the disciples and apostles of Jesus. So when these people were captured, they were executed by different methods of capital punishments. Today, if measures are not taken to suppress and completely ban this group of people who follow Christ of the last days, in less than a few years, they will subsume the entire religious community. At present, several main Christian factions in China have already been subsumed by The Church of Almighty God. The CCP is very clear about this. Had the CCP not fabricated some public opinions and contrived the Zhaoyuan Case, perhaps the day will come when the religious community of the world would be subsumed by The Church of Almighty God. Once The Church of Almighty God subsumes the entire religious community, it will be very unfavorable to the rule of the CCP. Therefore, the Central Committee made a strong determination to deploy all available forces to thoroughly ban The Church of Almighty God in a short period. You need to know, the emergence of Eastern Lightning not only took China by storm, it also made a big splash in the world. Since you made such a big move, how can the CCP not frantically launch a wholesale suppression and arrest campaign against you? If you must believe in God, you can only believe in Christianity. You are absolutely forbidden to believe in Almighty God. The Church of Almighty God does not belong to Christianity, don’t you know that?

Answer: You just uttered the underlying reason why the CCP suppresses The Church of Almighty God. But do you know why the major Christian factions were subsumed by The Church of Almighty God? It was because people of all sects and factions heard the voice of God. When they saw the appearance and work of Almighty God, they determined that the Lord Jesus had returned. So they all turned to Almighty God.

 This is the great news that believers throughout the religious community have long hoped for. Christ of the last days has appeared to work. It is a matter of course that all sects and factions of Christianity and Catholicism turn to Almighty God. It is also the trend of the times. This is enough to show that both the Christianity and The Church of Almighty God are created through the work of God. Christianity belongs to the Christian Church of the Age of Grace while The Church of Almighty God belongs to the Christian Church of the Age of Kingdom. They belong to Christianity just the same. Why does the CCP deny that The Church of Almighty God is part of Christianity? The CCP is an atheist political party, a satanic regime that hates the truth and resists God most. What does it know about Christianity? What qualifications does it have to say about which church is Christianity and which is not? The CCP doesn’t know a thing about Christianity. How dare it condemn the church of God. Isn’t it utterly shameless of the CCP to act like it understands something that it doesn’t? Christianity was created by the appearance and work of the incarnate Lord Jesus. As the Lord Jesus is Christ, all churches that believe in Him belong to Christianity. The Lord Jesus promised that He would return. The Lord Jesus has now returned, that is, the incarnate Almighty God. Almighty God is Christ in the last days. So the ones who believe in Almighty God also believe in Christ. All those that believe in Christ belong to Christianity. The Lord Jesus and Almighty God are the incarnate God on two occasions. They are one God. So faith in the Lord Jesus and faith in Almighty God both belong to Christianity. Naturally, The Church of Almighty God is contemporary Christianity. To be precise, in the last days, only the faith in Almighty God belongs to true Christianity, because the appearance of Almighty God—Christ of the last days—has ended the Age of Grace and inaugurated the Age of Kingdom. Only those who follow Almighty God, Christ of the last days, are those who follow the Lamb. Therefore, The Church of Almighty God of Christ in the last days is the more practical Christianity.

Question 3: I hear that many pastors and elders of the religious community say that who you believe in is a man and not Jesus Christ. Yet you witness that this man is the returned Lord Jesus, that is, Almighty God appearing at work. Do you know that the Communist Party has long condemned Christianity and Catholicism as cults? And you dare to witness that the Lord Jesus has returned, that is Almighty God; aren't you bucking the head wind? How can the Communist Party spare you? The Communist Party even dares to designate Christianity and Catholicism as cults, and the Bible as a cultist book. This is an open fact. Don't you know that? If the CCP dares to condemn and deny the world’s orthodox religions, why couldn’t it condemn Almighty God's appearance and work? When the CCP could designate the Bible as a cultist book, why would it spare The Word Appears in the Flesh? The public security agencies have confiscated many copies of this book. Many people are studying it. I just don't understand it. Why do you people have to believe in Almighty God? Why insist on witnessing that Almighty God is Christ of the last days? We understand everything about His family background. He is an ordinary person, just like Jesus that Christianity believes in. Jesus, the son of a carpenter, had parents and siblings. He was just an ordinary man. Yet the entire Christendom worships Jesus like God. Almighty God that you people believe in is also a man like Jesus. You insist on saying that He is God, this is quite inexplicable. You endured so much persecution and pain for believing in an ordinary man. Is it worth it? I hear that there are many people who gave up their families and careers to follow Almighty God. I doubt what you can ultimately get from believing in God like this? What is the basis for you to believe that He is God?

Answer: The CCP is an atheist revolutionary party that doesn’t even recognize God in heaven. How could it recognize the incarnate God? So it is not surprising that the Communist Party feels so strange about our faith in the incarnate Christ. There are many people in religions who only recognize God in heaven, but not the incarnate Christ. So they are eliminated by the work of God.

 For thousands of years, God has carried out three stages of work to save mankind, God said a lot of words in every stage of His work. Mankind only came to accept God's work because of God's utterances. To the last days, the gospel of the Lord Jesus has spread to the ends of the earth. Increasingly more people believe in God, at least over two billion all together. Could you not have seen this fact? Churches are seen everywhere in democratic countries. The Christian, Catholic, and Eastern Orthodox churches all believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. You should know about this. The Lord Jesus Christ is the incarnate God. For two thousand years, countless people have followed and witnessed for the Lord Jesus. The Lord Jesus was an ordinary person in semblance. Why do they firmly believe that the Lord Jesus is the Savior, the appearance of God at work? If you want to know what is the appearance of God and what is Christ, you have to read the Bible to see how the Lord Jesus preached and did His work and how the Holy Spirit witnessed for the Lord Jesus. Then you will know why people believe in the Lord Jesus. Incarnation itself is a great mystery. Christ of the last days, Almighty God, who appears and does His work has expressed all the truths for the cleansing and salvation of man and unveiled all the mysteries in the Bible. If you don’t believe in God, don’t read Almighty God's word, how could you know the mysteries about God? Do you want to understand what incarnation is? If so, let us communicate about the word of Almighty God to see how Almighty God has spoken.

Almighty God says, “The meaning of incarnation is that God appears in the flesh, and He comes to work among man of His creation in the image of a flesh. So, for God to be incarnated, He must first be flesh, flesh with normal humanity; this, at the very least, must be true. In fact, the implication of God’s incarnation is that God lives and works in the flesh, God in His very essence becomes flesh, becomes a man” (“The Essence of the Flesh Inhabited by God” in The Word Appears in the Flesh).

“God become flesh is called Christ, and so the Christ that can give people the truth is called God. There is nothing excessive about this, for He possesses the substance of God, and possesses God’s disposition, and wisdom in His work, that are unattainable by man. Those who call themselves Christ, yet cannot do the work of God, are frauds. Christ is not merely the manifestation of God on earth, but also the particular flesh assumed by God as He carries out and completes His work among man. This flesh is not one that can be replaced by just any man, but one that can adequately bear God’s work on earth, and express the disposition of God, and well represent God, and provide man with life.” (“Only Christ of the Last Days Can Give Man the Way of Eternal Life” in The Word Appears in the Flesh).

“He who is God's incarnation shall hold the substance of God, and He who is God's incarnation shall hold the expression of God. Since God becomes flesh, He shall bring forth the work He must do, and since God becomes flesh, He shall express what He is, and shall be able to bring the truth to man, bestow life upon man, and show man the way” (Preface to The Word Appears in the Flesh).

In these passages, Almighty God so clearly revealed the mysteries of incarnation. When we hear the word of God, we immediately understand what incarnation is all about. The truth can only be expressed by the incarnate God for the cleansing and salvation of mankind. Isn’t it the appearance and work of God? Are the world’s famous and great people able to express the truth? Aside from the incarnate God, no one can express the truth. Therefore the One who can express all the truths for the cleansing and salvation of mankind is naturally Christ and the appearance of God. This is beyond any doubt. Our belief in Almighty God is exactly because Almighty God has expressed all the truths for the cleansing and salvation of mankind, and done the judgment work in the last days. So we believe that He is the practical God incarnate, that is the Lord Jesus who has returned in the flesh in the last days. This is the basis for our belief in Almighty God.

It is not surprising that some pastors and elders of the religious community resist and condemn Almighty God because most people only believe in the God in heaven. Only a few people can accept and know the incarnate God. Two thousand years ago, when the Lord Jesus appeared to work, didn't the chief priests, scribes and the Pharisees of Judaism resist and condemn the Lord Jesus? They even surrendered the Lord Jesus to the Roman government to be nailed on the cross. When God twice appeared in the flesh to work, He has expressed many truths and done work for the redemption and salvation of mankind. Although most people recognize the existence of God, they do not know about the incarnation of God. For this great mystery of incarnation, they have never been able to fathom. Therefore, each time God appeared to work in the flesh, many people were revealed and eliminated. In the last days, the incarnate Almighty God has judged and revealed people by expressing the truth. Upon hearing the many truths expressed by the incarnate God, those who love the truth heard the voice of God, recognized that it was the appearance and work of God, accepted and obeyed Christ. For those who do not love the truth, although they recognized the authority and power of God's word, they had notions, they even condemned and resisted because the incarnate God appeared to be an ordinary person. Such people were revealed and eliminated as they were those who detested the truth. The people that God works to save are those who love and accept the truth. The people that God reveals and eliminates are those who loathe and hate the truth. This shows the wisdom and omnipotence of God! God's disposition lies in the way of His work. The incarnation of God is indeed a great mystery that is not easy to penetrate! Many people have stumbled over this. This is how I accept and view it.

Question 2: That pastors and elders are all chosen and ordained by the Lord, and that they are all people who serve the Lord. Obeying pastors and elders is obeying the Lord. If we resist and condemn pastors and elders, then we are resisting the Lord. Besides, Only pastors and elders understand the Bible and can interpret the Bible. Only they can shepherd us. As long as what pastors and elders say conforms with the Bible and has a basis in the Bible, we should comply and obey. As long as what pastors and elders do conforms with the Bible, we should accept and follow. How could that be wrong?

Answer: In religion, some people think religious pastors and elders are all chosen and established by the Lord. Therefore, people should obey them. Does such a view have a basis in the Bible? Is it evidenced by the word of the Lord? Does it have the testimony of the Holy Spirit and the confirmation of the Holy Spirit’s work? If the answers are all no, then doesn’t the majority’s belief that pastors and elders are all chosen and established by the Lord arise from people’s notions and imaginations? Let’s think about it. In the Age of Law, Moses was chosen and established by God. Does this mean that all Jewish leaders during the Age of Law were chosen and set up by God?

Question 5: Paul made it very clear in 2 Timothy that “the entire Bible is inspired by God” (2Ti 3:16), This means that every word in the Bible is the word of God, and that the Bible represents the Lord. Believing in the Lord is believing in the Bible. Believing in the Bible is believing in the Lord. Moving away from the Bible means not believing in the Lord! Our belief in the Lord only requires us to hold firm to the Bible. Even if we do not accept Almighty God’s work in the last days, we’ll still be able to be saved and enter the kingdom of heaven. Is there anything wrong with this understanding?

Answer: The majority of the religious world rely on the words of Paul that “All scripture is given by inspiration of God” in determining that everything in the Bible is the word of God, and that as long as one holds on to the Bible they will be taken up into the kingdom of heaven. Especially in the last days, most believers in the Lord still believe in this. But is this viewpoint in conformity with the truth and facts? Did the Lord Jesus ever say “All scripture is given by inspiration of God”? Did the Holy Spirit ever testify to this? They did not. This was said by Paul. Many believers use these words from Paul as the basis of their belief that every word in the Bible is inspired by God and is the word of God. Is this not a huge mistake? 

Question 1: I don’t understand, if Eastern Lightning is the true way, then why would it be strongly opposed by the CCP government? Why would religious leaders also furiously condemn it? It’s not like pastors and elders have not been persecuted by the CCP government. But when it comes to Eastern Lightning, how come the pastors and elders who serve God can have the same view and attitude as the CCP government? Just what is the reason behind this?

Answer: The Bible says: “… the whole world lies in wickedness” (1Jn 5:19). The Lord Jesus also said, this is an evil generation (Luk 11: 29). Then just what is the extent of this world’s darkness and evil?

Question 8: You say Paul never really repented. But Paul said that for him to live is Christ. How do you explain that?

Answer: Paul said for him to live was Christ, but those are just his own words. They are not the testimony of the Holy Spirit and are not supported by the Lord Jesus’ words. The other apostles never said for Paul to live was Christ. Just basing this on Paul’s words is not credible! None of the ancient saints and prophets dared claim that for them, to live is Christ. Only Paul dared say that. Therefore, we can see that Paul was too arrogant and unreasonable. In the Age of Grace, the Holy Spirit only testified that the Lord Jesus was Christ. The Lord Jesus’ work of redemption, the disposition He expressed, and all that He has and is completely proved that His identity was that of Christ. Paul was the main culprit who hated the truth and resisted God. He said for him to live was Christ; that shows he did not know Christ at all. As to this question, let us see what Almighty God says.

Question 5: Paul’s sacrifices and suffering were forced. We admit that as well. However, when you say that Paul in substance hated the truth and was the enemy of God, I don’t agree with that. What are you basing that on?

Answer: There are facts that can show whether or not Paul hated the truth and opposed God: When the Lord Jesus did His work, He expressed many truths, displayed many miracles and shook all of Judea. A person of Paul’s caliber should have known that all of the Lord Jesus’ work came from God, but Paul never sought or studied the Lord Jesus’ way.

Question 4: Even if Paul wasn’t perfect, the Lord wouldn’t remember his past transgressions. Paul worked and suffered for the Lord for many years; he paid a higher price than anyone else. His suffering must have earned the Lord’s praise. Brother Paul is still our exemplar! He is an example to all Christians. If Paul did not obtain God’s praise, then who can?

Answer: You dare say that Paul’s suffering definitely obtained God’s praise? Do you know why he suffered, what his intentions were? I think he did it to atone for his sins; he had no choice. He did it to obtain the crown and a reward. How could the Lord accept his suffering? The Lord is righteous; the Lord is always watching people and their hearts. People cannot see through Paul, but God can. Should people not believe that God is righteous? Why do they extol Paul, adore Paul, and exalt Paul like this? Is that not resisting the Lord Jesus? Why do people defend Paul? What problem does this illustrate? Are they standing on the Lord Jesus’ side and speaking up for Him? Do those kinds of people really have faith in the Lord?

Question 3: Even if Paul’s words are not God’s words, yet after being called by God, he spread the gospel and endured suffering for the Lord for the rest of his life. He traveled so far and worked so hard to establish the churches. He paid such a heavy price. His contributions to the church are as plain as the eye can see. His faith in the Lord and the way he suffered for the Lord are an example for all Christians. Do you not accept these facts?

Answer: How many people just read about how Paul spread the gospel and suffered in his letters but do not understand Paul’s nature and substance. Everyone knows that when the Lord Jesus did His work, Paul was the main culprit that hated the truth and resisted the Lord Jesus. This is something that Paul himself did not dare deny.

Question 2: You say Paul’s words are not the truth. Then why are his words in the Bible? Paul’s words are written in the Bible. Therefore, they were inspired by God; they represent God’s words. We should pursue them!

Answer: Although Paul’s words are written in the Bible, that does not mean they’re God’s words. This is because the Bible was compiled by man; it was not compiled by Jehovah God, not compiled by the Lord Jesus, and it was definitely not compiled by the Holy Spirit. Can something compiled by men be free of errors?

Question 1: The apostle Paul once said, “I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: From now on there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness …” (2Ti 4:7–8). Therefore, acting in accordance with Paul’s words means we are doing God’s will. In that case, we will definitely be able to enter the kingdom of heaven and gain rewards.

Answer: As to the question of what kinds of people can enter the kingdom of heaven, the Lord Jesus said long ago, “but he that does the will of My Father which is in heaven.” This completely shows God’s substance of righteousness and holiness.

Question 14: Many brothers and sisters worship the pastors and elders in the heart. They do not understand why, although the pastors and elders often interpret the Bible and exalt the Bible, they still hate the truth and resist and condemn Almighty God incarnate. Interpreting the Bible and exalting the Bible, is that the same as bearing witness to the Lord and exalting the Lord?

Answer: An atmosphere is already growing in the religious community. Those that can interpret the Bible best, those that have the best biblical theory are widely praised and worshiped. The people that can interpret the mysteries of the Bible and the prophecies are worshiped the most. Therefore, many people worship the pastors and elders in the church.
