The Church of Almighty God | Witnesses for Christ of the Last Days (The Twenty Truths of Bearing Witness to God)

XI. One Must Fellowship Clearly the Aspect of Truth Concerning the Relationship Between God and the Bible

5. What exactly is the true belief in God? How should one believe in God in order to obtain His praise? 

Relevant Words of God:

Though many people believe in God, few understand what faith in God means, and what they must do to be after God’s heart. This is because, though people are familiar with the word “God” and phrases such as “the work of God,” they do not know God, much less do they know His work. No wonder, then, that all those who do not know God are possessed of a muddled belief. People do not take belief in God seriously because believing in God is too unfamiliar, too strange for them. In this way, they fall short of the demands of God. In other words, if people do not know God, do not know His work, then they are not fit for God’s use, much less can they fulfill the desire of God. “Belief in God” means believing that there is a God; this is the simplest concept of faith in God. What’s more, believing that there is a God is not the same as truly believing in God; rather, it is a kind of simple faith with strong religious overtones.

The Church of Almighty God | Short Sketch From the Christian Church | "The Police Pay a New Year Visit" | Eastern Lightning

Introduction

Zheng Xinming, an elderly man of nearly seventy, is a devout Christian. Because of his faith in the Lord, he was detained and imprisoned, and sentenced to eight years. On his release, he was still listed by the Chinese Communist police as a target of focused monitoring. In particular, after the old man accepted Almighty God's work in the last days, the police came almost every day to terrorize, intimidate and disturb him. There was no way that Zheng Xinming could normally read the word of God at home, and even his family members shared his state of anxiety. Now it is New Year's Eve and the old man is at home reading God's word, not knowing what may happen …

The Church of Almighty God | 18. People Who Believe in God but Cannot Submit to God Will Be Eliminated

There are currently some people in the church who don’t have a good disposition. They do not submit at all, do not care about God’s will and have even less consideration for the work of God’s family. Are these people still able to do their duty? There is no way that they can do their duty and God’s family will not use this kind of people. What kind of people are these people who do not submit? Do they belong to God or do they belong to Satan? These people do not listen to the words spoken by the leaders and workers even though they are right; they do not submit and will be eliminated. So, what is the essence of this problem of disobedience? It is that these people are unable to submit to the truth. They are not able to accept what others say although it is right and is in line with the truth.

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

Introduction

Why do the pastors and elders of the religious world resist and convict Almighty God? It is because they hate, are hostile towards and cannot accept the truth that Almighty God incarnate expresses. This is why they deny, convict and resist Christ. This exposes the satanic essence they have that hates the truth. The truth that Christ expresses is enormously powerful and authoritative. It can awaken and save the human race as well as cause the people to break away from all the forces of Satan and return to God. This is why, in order to protect their own fame, profit and status, the leaders of the religious world nail Christ to the cross again. These are the true fact and essence about how the leaders of the religious world serve God yet resist God at the same time.

6. Can we achieve salvation if we don’t believe in God, but instead act virtuous, do good works, and do no evil deeds?

The Answer from God’s Word:

Without the guidance of God, no matter how much rulers and sociologists wrack their brains to preserve human civilization, it is to no avail. No one can fill the emptiness in man’s heart, for no one can be the life of man, and no social theory can free man from the emptiness with which he is afflicted. Science, knowledge, freedom, democracy, leisure, comfort, these are but a temporary respite. Even with these things, man will inevitably sin and bemoan the injustices of society. These things cannot allay man’s craving and desire to explore. Because man was made by God and the senseless sacrifices and explorations of man can only lead to more distress. Man will exist in a constant state of fear, will not know how to face the future of mankind, or how to face the path that lies ahead.

A Hundred Questions and Answers on Investigating the True Way

1. Why should mankind believe in God?

The Answer from God’s Word:

God created all things, and so He makes all creation come under His dominion, and submit to His dominion; He will command all things, so that all things are in His hands. All creation of God, including animals, plants, mankind, the mountains and rivers, and the lakes—all must come under His dominion. All things in the skies and on the ground must come under His dominion. They cannot have any choice, and must all submit to His orchestrations. This was decreed by God, and is the authority of God. God commands everything, and orders and ranks all things, with each classed according to kind, and allotted their own position, according to God’s will. No matter how great it is, no thing can surpass God, and all things serve the mankind created by God, and no thing dares to disobey God or make any demands of God. And so man, as a creature of God, must also perform the duty of man.

Gospel Movie clip "Song of Victory" (3) - How Do the Overcomers Come Into Being?

Introduction

Do you know the background behind the creation of the 144,000 overcomers prophesied by the Book of Revelation? Do you understand the significance of God allowing the Chinese Communist Party to carry out its frantic oppression, suppression, and persecution of God's chosen people? Almighty God says, "Those who God refers to as overcomers are those who are still able to stand witness, maintain their confidence, and their devotion to God when under the influence of Satan and under siege by Satan, that is, when within the forces of darkness. If you are still able to maintain a heart of purity and your genuine love for God no matter what, you stand witness in front of God, and this is what God refers to as being an overcomer" (The Word Appears in the Flesh). It is through the frantic oppression and cruel persecution of the Chinese Communist Party that God makes complete and perfects these overcomers with His word. They are also the group of people who suffer with Christ in His kingdom.

Are You a True Believer of God?

Perhaps your journey of faith in God has been more than one or two years, and perhaps in your life over these years you have endured much hardship; or perhaps you have not been subjected to hardship and instead have received much grace. It may also be that you have experienced neither hardship nor grace, but instead have lived a life most ordinary. Regardless, you are still a follower of God, so let us fellowship about the subject of following Him. However, I must remind all who read these words that the word of God is directed toward all those who acknowledge God and all those who follow God, not toward all people at large, including those that do not acknowledge God. If you believe that God is speaking to the multitude, to all people in the world, then the word of God will have no effect upon you. So, you should keep all the words close to your heart, and do not place yourself outside the scope of them. In any case, let us speak of what is happening in our house.
