Those Who Love God Will Forever Live Within His Light

The substance of most people’s belief in God is religious conviction: They are incapable of loving God, and can only follow God like a robot, unable to truly yearn for God or adore Him. They merely follow Him silently. Many people believe in God, but there are very few who love God; they only revere God because they fear catastrophe, or else they admire God because He is high and mighty—but in their reverence and admiration there is no love or true yearning. In their experiences they seek the minutiae of the truth, or else some insignificant mysteries. Most people merely follow, they fish in murky waters only to receive blessings; they do not seek the truth, nor do they truly obey God in order to receive God’s blessings. The life of all people’s belief in God is meaningless, it is without value, and in it are their personal considerations and pursuits; they do not believe in God in order to love God, but for the sake of being blessed. Many people act as they please, they do whatever they want, and never consider the interests of God, or whether what they do is in accordance with the will of God.

God’s Utterance “The Substance of Christ Is Obedience to the Will of the Heavenly Father” (Selected Passage) | Eastern Lightning

God’s Utterance “The Substance of Christ Is Obedience to the Will of the Heavenly Father” (Selected Passage) | Eastern Lightning 

Almighty God says, “The incarnate God is called Christ, and Christ is the flesh donned by the Spirit of God. This flesh is unlike any man that is of the flesh. This difference is because Christ is not of flesh and blood but is the incarnation of the Spirit. He has both a normal humanity and a complete divinity. His divinity is not possessed by any man. His normal humanity sustains all His normal activities in the flesh, while His divinity carries out the work of God Himself. Be it His humanity or divinity, both submit to the will of the heavenly Father. The substance of Christ is the Spirit, that is, the divinity. Therefore, His substance is that of God Himself; this substance will not interrupt His own work, and He could not possibly do anything that destroys His own work, nor would He ever utter any words that go against His own will. Therefore, the incarnate God would absolutely never do any work that interrupts His own management. This is what all man should understand. The essence of the work of the Holy Spirit is to save man and is for the sake of God’s own management. Similarly, the work of Christ is to save man and is for the sake of God’s will. Given that God becomes flesh, He realizes His substance within His flesh, such that His flesh is sufficient to undertake His work. Therefore, all the work of God’s Spirit is replaced by the work of Christ during the time of incarnation, and at the core of all work throughout the time of incarnation is the work of Christ. It cannot be commingled with work from any other age. And since God becomes flesh, He works in the identity of His flesh; since He comes in the flesh, He then finishes in the flesh the work that He ought to do. Be it the Spirit of God or be it Christ, both are God Himself, and He does the work that He ought to do and performs the ministry that He ought to perform.”

“When You Behold the Spiritual Body of Jesus Will Be When God Has Made Anew Heaven and Earth” (Selected Passage) | Eastern Lightning

  Almighty God says, “Do you wish to know the root of why the Pharisees opposed Jesus? Do you wish to know the substance of the Pharisees? They were full of fantasies about the Messiah. What’s more, they believed only that the Messiah would come, yet did not seek the truth of life. And so, even today they still await the Messiah, for they have no knowledge of the way of life, and do not know what the way of truth is. How, say you, could such foolish, stubborn and ignorant people gain God’s blessing? How could they behold the Messiah? They opposed Jesus because they did not know the direction of the Holy Spirit’s work, because they did not know the way of truth spoken by Jesus, and, furthermore, because they did not understand the Messiah. And since they had never seen the Messiah, and had never been in the company of the Messiah, they made the mistake of paying empty tribute to the name of the Messiah while opposing the substance of the Messiah by any means. These Pharisees in substance were stubborn, arrogant, and did not obey the truth.

Since God loves man, why will He send disasters to destroy all the wicked who resist God? | Eastern Lightning

Since God loves man, why will He send disasters to destroy all the wicked who resist God?

The answer from God’s word:

“The approach of the end of all things indicates the end of God’s work and indicates the end of humanity’s development. This means that humanity as corrupted by Satan has reached their end of development, and that the descendants of Adam and Eve have propagated to their respective ends, and it also means that it is impossible for such a humanity, having been corrupted by Satan, to continue to develop. … When His work ends, those people who remain will be cleansed and enjoy a more wonderful second human life upon the earth as they enter a higher realm of humanity; in other words, they will enter into humanity’s day of rest and live together with God.

Now the world is falling!

Babylon is being paralyzed!

The religious world—

how could it not be destroyed by God’s authority on earth?

The Hymn of God's Word "The Sorrow of Corrupt Mankind" | Eastern Lightning

The Sorrow of Corrupt Mankind

1. Man walked with God, through all ages and times,

knows not God rules the fate of all living things,

unaware of how God orchestrates all things and how He directs all things.

        Since time immemorial till the present day,

        this is something no one ever knows.

        It is not because God’s ways are too hard to find,

        or His plan has yet to be realized,

        but man’s heart and spirit are too distant from God.

        Therefore, while man is following God,

        he is playing the role of Satan’s servant.

        He never perceives this.

The Hymn of God’s Word “Let’s All Pay Attention to the Fate of Mankind” | Eastern Lightning

Let’s All Pay Attention to the Fate of Mankind

I
God urges the people of all ethnicities, all countries and even industries:
Listen to God’s voice and see His work; pay attention to the fate of humanity;
make God the most holy and honorable, the highest and only object for worshiping;
allow the whole of humanity to live under the blessing of God,
just as the descendants of Abraham lived under the promise of Jehovah,
just as God’s creations Adam and Eve lived in the Garden of Eden.

The Hymn of God's Word "God Is Abundantly Merciful and Profoundly Wrathful" | Eastern Lightning

God Is Abundantly Merciful and Profoundly Wrathful

It is so real and it’s so true God’s mercy and God’s tolerance exist,

but when He unleashes His wrath, His holiness and righteousness

also show man the side of God that brooks no offense.

When man can fully follow and obey the commands of God

and acts in accordance to the requirements of God,

God is abundant and plentiful in His mercy toward man;

when man has been filled with corruption, filled with hatred and enmity for Him,

God will show profound anger.

And to what extent His anger will be?

His wrath will keep on till He sees no more,

no more man’s evil deeds and resistance,

till they are no longer before His eyes.

And to what extent His anger will be?

His wrath will keep on till He sees no more,

no more man’s evil deeds and resistance,

till they are no longer before His eyes.

Only at that time will God’s anger disappear.

No matter who the person is, if their heart has become distant from God,

and has turned away from God, never to return,

then regardless of how they, seemingly or how willingly

wish to worship, follow and obey God in their body or their thoughts,

once their heart turns away from God,

"God’s wrath will be unleashed without cease."

When God deeply unleashes His anger, having given man plenty of chance,

there will be no way of taking it back,

and He will never again,

will never ever again be merciful and tolerant of such man!

This is one side of God’s disposition that tolerates no offense.

He is tolerant and merciful toward things kind, beautiful, and good;

He is profoundly wrathful toward things evil, sinful, and wicked,

such that He is unceasing in His wrath, such that He is unceasing in His wrath.

These are two main and leading aspects of God’s disposition,

and they have been revealed by God from beginning to end:

abundant mercy and profound wrath.

This is one side of God’s disposition that tolerates no offense.

He is tolerant and merciful toward things kind, beautiful, and good;

He is profoundly wrathful toward things evil, sinful, and wicked,

such that He is unceasing in His wrath, such that He is unceasing in His wrath.

These are two main and leading aspects of God’s disposition,

and they have been revealed by God from beginning to end:

abundant mercy and profound wrath.

A common saying goes, “Everyone will die if the heaven falls.” Will the believers in God be spared of death when disasters befall?

A common saying goes, “Everyone will die if the heaven falls.” Will the believers in God be spared of death when disasters befall?

The answer from God’s word:

“God created this world, He created this mankind, and moreover He was the architect of ancient Greek culture and human civilization. Only God consoles this mankind, and only God cares for this mankind night and day. Human development and progress is inseparable from the sovereignty of God, and the history and future of mankind are inextricable from the designs of God. If you are a true Christian, then you will surely believe that the rise and fall of any country or nation occurs according to the designs of God. God alone knows the fate of a country or nation, and God alone controls the course of this mankind. 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.
