The Church of Almighty God | 15. It’s Not Easy to Truly Know Yourself 

Zhang Rui Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province

I was a deceitful person. In God’s word we can see that deceitful people will not be saved by God; only honest people will receive His praise. So, I sought to be an honest person, to consciously practice speaking accurately, to be objective and practical, and to seek the truth from facts when reporting on issues. In my work, whether it was an error or an omission, I related it in detail to the leader. I also consciously dissected and exposed my own corruption. Every time I put this into practice, I felt that I had undergone some changes and I got a little taste of being an honest person.

Zhong Xin is a preacher from a certain house church on the Chinese mainland. He has been a believer in the Lord for many years and has always suffered the arrests and persecution of the CCP. His hatred of the CCP runs deep, and he has long since seen clearly that the CCP is a satanic regime that sets itself against God. In recent years, he has seen the wild condemnation, arrests and persecution of the Eastern Lightning church by the CCP government and the religious world. What he found incredible, however, was that not only had the Eastern Lightning not been beaten, but on the contrary it had flourished more and more, and so Zhong Xin began to reconsider: Is the Eastern Lightning the manifestation and work of the Lord? He also discovered that the words used by the CCP and the religious world to condemn the Eastern Lightning were all rumors and lies and so, in order to get to the truth of the matter, he led his brothers and sisters to investigate the Eastern Lightning. Through listening to the fellowships of those giving testimony in the Church of Almighty God, the majority affirmed that the words expressed by Almighty God are the truth, that these words are the voice of God and that Almighty God is the Lord Jesus returned. But in the face of the CCP government's brutal repression and persecution of the Church of Almighty God, as well as the wild defiance and condemnation coming from the pastors and elders of the religious world, some people felt puzzled: The work of Almighty God is the true way, so why does it run up against the wild defiance and condemnation of the political power and the religious world? By reading the words of Almighty God, and by listening to the fellowships of those giving testimony in the Church of Almighty God, brothers and sisters understand the root cause of mankind's defiance of God, they see clearly why the road to heaven is so perilous, and they come to have discernment about the truth-hating, God-opposing essence of the CCP's satanic regime and the leaders of the religious world. People such as Zhong Xin have resolutely cast off the restraints and bonds of the influence of Satan, they have accepted Almighty God's work of the last days, and they have truly returned before the throne of God.

The Church of Almighty God | 43. Guileless People Are Not Necessarily Honest People 

Cheng Mingjie Xi’an City, Shaanxi Province

I consider myself to be an outgoing and forthright kind of person. I speak with people in a very straightforward manner; whatever I want to say, I say it—I’m not the type to beat around the bush. In my interactions with people I tend to be a pretty straight shooter. Often, I get cheated or ridiculed for too easily placing trust in others. It was only after I started going to church that I felt I had found a place I could call my own. I thought to myself: In the past my guilelessness has put me at a disadvantage and made me vulnerable to the deception of others; but in church God wants honest people, people who have been scorned by society, so I don’t have to worry anymore about being too guileless. I felt especially comforted when I heard that God loves the honest and simple, and that only the honest shall receive God’s salvation. When I saw how distressed my brothers and sisters had become as they began to recognize their treacherous nature but could not change it, I felt even more relieved that, being honest and straightforward, I wouldn’t have to go through such distress. One day, however, after receiving a revelation from God, I finally realized I wasn’t the honest person I thought I was.

The Church of Almighty God | 6. What is an honest person? Why does God like honest people?

Relevant Words of God:

Honesty means to give your heart to God; to never play Him false in anything; to be open with Him in all things, never cover the truth; to never do that which deceives those above and deludes those below; and to never do that which is done merely to ingratiate yourself with God. In short, to be honest is to refrain from impurity in your actions and words, and to deceive neither God nor man.

That God has become flesh shakes the religious world, upsets the religious order, and stirs up the souls of all who long for God's appearance. Who does not marvel at this? Who does not long to see God? God has spent years among man, but man is simply unaware of this. Today, God Himself has appeared to renew His old love with man.

The Church of Almighty God | 61. It’s Not Easy Being an Honest Person 

Zixin Wuhan City, Hubei Province

Through eating and drinking God’s word and listening to preaching, I came to understand the importance of being an honest person and thus began practicing to be an honest person. After a period of time, I found that I gained some entry in being an honest person. For example: While praying or conversing with someone, I would be able to speak the truth and from the heart; I could also take fulfilling my duty seriously, and when I revealed corruption I could open myself up to other people. Because of this, I thought being an honest person was quite easy to practice, and not at all as difficult as it was made out to be by God’s words: “Many would rather be condemned to hell than to speak and act honestly.” It was not until later that I was able to appreciate through experience that it really is not easy for corrupt man to be an honest person. God’s words really are absolutely true and completely unexaggerated.

The Church of Almighty God | 18 What is an Honest Person

1. Honesty means to give your heart to God; to never play Him false in anything; to be open with Him in all things, never cover the truth; to never do that which deceives those above and deludes those below; and to never do that which is done merely to ingratiate yourself with God. To be honest is to refrain from impurity in your actions and words. If your words are riddled with excuses and valueless justifications, then God says that you are one who is very unwilling to practice the truth.

The Church of Almighty God | 106 Not Knowing Christ’s Divine Substance Is the Root of Man’s Resistance to God

The Church of Almighty God | A Hymn of God's Words 

Not Knowing Christ's Divine Substance Is the Root of Man's Resistance to God

The divinity of Christ is above all mankind. He's the highest authority among all created beings. This is His divinity, disposition and being. These are what determine the identity of Him. Normal is His humanity, in different roles He speaks, and utterly He obeys God, yet He is still God, there's no doubt.

The Church of Almighty God | A Hymn of God's Words "God Is Seeking Those Who Thirst for His Appearance"

God seeks those who long for Him, who long for Him to appear. God seeks those who don't resist, obedient as babies before Him. God seeks those who are able, able to hear His words, accept what He's entrusted and offer heart and body to Him. If nothing can shake, nothing can shake your devotion to God, He'll look down upon you, look down upon you with favor, oh … God will bestow His blessings upon you, upon you, oh … God will bestow

The Church of Almighty God | 127 Submitting to the Will of Heavenly Father Is the Substance of Christ

1. God Himself has no elements of disobedience; He is the expression of all love, as well as beauty and goodness. Even in the flesh, God does not do any that disobeys God the Father. Even at the expense of sacrificing His life, He would be whole-heartedly willing and make no other choice.

2. God has no elements of self-rightness and self-importance, or those of conceit and arrogance; He has no elements of crookedness. No matter how arduous the work or weak the flesh, God in the flesh, will never do anything that interrupts the work of Himself, much less forsake the will of God the Father.

3. God in the flesh would rather suffer pains of the flesh than go against the will of God the Father; Though He has the identity of God Himself, He still seeks the will of God the Father, and fulfills what is entrusted to Him by God the Father. Submitting to the will of God the Father is the substance of Christ.

God Is the Source of Life for All Things (IV)

Today, we are communing a special topic. For each and every one of you, there are only two main things that you need to know, experience and understand—and what are these two things? The first is people’s personal entry into life, and the second relates to knowing God. Today I give you a choice: Choose one. Would you like to hear about a topic that relates to people’s personal life experience, or would you like to hear one about knowing God Himself? And why do I give you such a choice? Because, today, I have in mind to commune some new things to you about knowing God. But, irrespective, I’ll first let you choose between the two things that I just spoke of. (I choose the one about knowing God.) (We think that communing the knowledge of God is better, too.)
