God’s Words Create Life’s Miracles


By Yang Li, Jiangxi Province

My mother passed away when I was a little girl, and so I had to bear the heavy burden of household responsibilities from a young age. After I got married, my responsibilities became so burdensome that I could barely breathe under their weight. Having had my fill of the arduousness and misery of life, over time I became depressed and dejected, quiet and reserved, and I frittered away one day after another. In 2002, when some brothers and sisters shared the gospel of Almighty God’s work in the last days with me, I happily accepted it and then brought my husband and children before God along with me. From then on, brothers and sisters would often come to our house for gatherings and we would fellowship on God’s word, sing, dance and praise God; this brought me incredible enjoyment and I no longer felt depressed or worried. My children said that I seemed to be getting younger and more cheerful all the time. We would often read God’s words together as a family and, through His words, we came to understand many truths, as well as God’s urgent will to save mankind. I traveled all over, spreading the gospel and bearing witness for God in order to repay God’s love and enable those who had, like me, undergone Satan’s torment to come before God and be saved by Him as soon as possible. I never imagined that, because of this, I would become the target of the CCP government’s cruel persecution …

Rising Up From Dark Oppression
















By Mo Zhijian, Guangdong Province

I was born in a poor, remote mountain area where we have burned incense and worshiped Buddha for many generations. There are Buddhist temples all over the land where all the families would go to burn incense; no one had ever believed in God. In 1995, my wife and I were working in another part of the country where we started believing in the Lord Jesus; after we returned we began sharing the gospel and the number of people who accepted it slowly grew to over 100 people. Because more and more people were believing in God, it alarmed the local government. One day in 1997, the police summoned me to go to the local police station, where the chief of the County Public Security Bureau, the chief of the Security Bureau, the chief of the Bureau of Religion and the head of the police station as well as a few police officers were waiting for me. The chief of the Public Security Bureau asked me: “Why do you believe in God? Who do you have contact with? Where did the Bibles come from? Why don’t you go to the Three-Self Church for gatherings?” I said: “People were created by God, everything they enjoy is created by God, such as the sunlight, air and water; it is the law of heaven and earth that people believe in God and worship Him. The national constitution also expressly stipulates that citizens have freedom of religion; why don’t you permit us to freely believe in God?” The chief of the Bureau of Religion said: “There are limits to religious freedom, just like a little bird inside a cage; even though its wings and feet are not bound, it can only move within the cage.” When I heard him speak these fallacies, I became indignant and angrily said: “Then the national government is lying to its people!” When they heard me say this, they knew that they were wrong and didn’t have anything to say, so they just let me go home. I wasn’t aware of the substance of the CCP government’s resistance to God until 1999 when I accepted Almighty God’s work of the last days. Only through reading God’s words and experiencing even more cruel persecution from the CCP government was I able to see clearly that the CCP was the embodiment of Satan the evil spirit; it was the enemy of God as spoken of in the Bible: “And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceives the whole world” (Revelation 12:9).

God Guides Me to Overcome the Demons’ Cruelty
















By Wang Hua, Henan Province

My daughter and I are both Christians belonging to The Church of Almighty God. While we were following God, my daughter and I were both arrested and sentenced to reeducation through labor by the CCP government. I was sentenced to three years, and my daughter was sentenced to one year. Although I was subjected to inhuman persecution and harm by the CCP government, each time I found myself despairing and in danger, God was there, secretly watching over me, protecting me, and opening a way out for me. It was the words of Almighty God which gave me the courage and motivation to go on living, which guided me to overcome the torment of being cruelly tortured, and which helped me to persevere through three years in that hellish prison. In the midst of adversity, I witnessed Almighty God’s love and salvation, and I experienced the authority and power of God’s words. I feel favored to have gained so much, and I am resolved to follow God unswervingly and to walk the right path in life.

A Song of Life Amidst the Ruin


















By Gao Jing, Henan Province

In 1999, I had the fortune to accept Almighty God’s work of the last days. Through reading God’s words, I perceived the authority and power they hold, and felt that these words were the voice of God. Being able to hear the words expressed to mankind by the Creator moved me beyond my ability to describe, and for the first time, I felt the sense of peace and joy in the depths of my spirit that the work of the Holy Spirit brings to man. From that moment on, I became an increasingly avid reader of God’s words. After I’d joined The Church of Almighty God,

Knowing the Lord Jesus: Why Did the Lord Jesus Work Amongst Man in an Ordinary Form?

May 21, 2019
By Li Qian


I am a pastor and I’ve worked and preached for the Lord for many years. Each time I opened up the Bible, I saw the words written in Matthew 13:53–57 which say: “When Jesus had finished these parables, He departed there. And when He was come into His own country, He taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished, and said, From where has this man this wisdom, and these mighty works? Is not this the carpenter’s son? is not His mother called Mary? and His brothers, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas? And His sisters, are they not all with us? From where then has this man all these things? And they were offended in Him.” And also John 19:6–7 which say: “When the chief priests therefore and officers saw Him, they cried out, saying, Crucify Him, crucify Him. Pilate said to them, Take you Him, and crucify Him: for I find no fault in Him. The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law He ought to die, because He made Himself the Son of God.”

What Are All Man's Intentions For




A Hymn of God's Words
What Are All Man's Intentions For

1
People show their kindness and are selfish in taking unbelieving kids, relatives to church. They stress just love, regardless if they believe, or whether this act is in God's willSome people bring wives or parents before God. Regardless if the Holy Spirit agrees, or the Holy Spirit carries out His work, they blindly "adopt talented people" for God. What kinds of intentions do people really harbor? Isn't it to satisfy one's own plans, selfish desires? Is it really for God's management plan and work? Is it to fulfill a creature's duty?

Christian Music Documentary "Following Close By"


Christian Music Documentary "Following Close By"


Overcomers are those who stand witness, keeping confidence and full devotion to God, even when under Satan’s influence, even though Satan holds them in siege by dark forces. If you still maintain a heart of purity and true love for God no matter what may be, you are then standing witness in front of God, you are what God Himself calls an overcomer.

God’s words free us from Satan’s chains. We’ve truly felt their authority and their power beyond compare. Seeing God’s great loveliness, we all love Him and bear witness. Free from any fear of danger, we spread the kingdom gospel.

Gospel Choir Song "Kingdom Anthem: The Kingdom Descends Upon the World" | Full Preview


Gospel Choir Song "Kingdom Anthem: The Kingdom Descends Upon the World" | Full Preview

The stirring kingdom anthem has rung out, announcing God's arrival among man to the whole universe! The kingdom of God has come! All people cheer, all things rejoice! Everything throughout the heavens brims with merriment. What captivating scenes of jubilation are these?

Among man, who lives in pain and has endured thousands of years of Satan's corruption, who does not long—does not yearn—for God's arrival? How many believers and followers of God throughout the ages have, under the influence of Satan, endured suffering and adversity, persecution and estrangement? Who does not hope that the kingdom of God will come soon? Having tasted the joys and sorrows of humanity, who of mankind does not desire for the truth and righteousness to hold power among man?

English Worship Songs Lyrics | The Truth of the Work of Conquest in the Last Days



A Hymn of God's Words

English Worship Songs Lyrics | The Truth of the Work of Conquest in the Last Days

Verse 1

Corrupt man doesn't know of God or worship Him. At creation, with Adam and Eve Jehovah's glory stayed. But man became corrupted, lost the glory and testimony when all rebelled against God and stopped revering Him.
Chorus
Today's work is to get back all of the glory, so all may worship Godbear witness among creation. This shall be done in this stage of work, the work of conquest in the last days.

We have been raptured before God. We join the rich feast, so happy. We enjoy God’s words and understand the truth, our spirits are liberated and feel so free. Our hearts are so filled with thanks and praise. We can’t help but sing. The joy in our hearts is impossible to express. 
Praise and leap for joy. God deserves honor and glory. God’s will is carried out on earth. All God’s people praise Him to the fullest.

2019 Christian Music Video | Korean Worship Song "How Important God’s Love for Man Is"



2019 Christian Music Video | Korean Worship Song "How Important God’s Love for Man Is"

The picture of “God’s Command to Adam” in the scriptures is a moving and heartwarming picture. Though there is only God and man in it, the intimacy between them is so worthy of envy. God’s profuse love is gratuitously bestowed upon man; man is naive and innocent, unencumbered and carefree, blissfully living under God’s eye; God shows concern for man, while man lives under God’s protection and blessing; every single thing man does and says is closely linked to and inseparable from God.

2019 Christian Skit "An Antichrist in the Church" | Be Careful! Don't Be Deceived by Pharisees



2019 Christian Skit "An Antichrist in the Church" | Be Careful! Don't Be Deceived by Pharisees

Brother Li is a believer who attends a house church. While he and his brothers and sisters are investigating the true way, their pastor says "God's words and works are all in the Bible, and anything outside the Bible is heresy" and "any who preach the Lord's return as incarnate flesh are false" to obstruct and prevent believers from seeking and investigating the true way. The Lord Jesus clearly said, "I have yet many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. However, when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, He will guide you into all truth: for He shall not speak of Himself; but whatever He shall hear, that shall He speak: and He will show you things to come" (John 16:12-13).

2019 English Christian Song With Lyrics | "Are You One Who Seeks to Be Perfected by God?"


2019 English Christian Hymn With Lyrics | "Are You One Who Seeks to Be Perfected by God?"

Pre-verse

If you are one of the people striving to be made perfect, you’ll have borne testimony, and you are going to say:

                                                          Verse 1

“Through each and every step of what God is doing, I have accepted this work of chastisement and judgment. Though I have suffered a lot, I have gained God’s own work, I have known His righteousness and how He makes man perfect.

                                                          Verse 2

Righteous God’s disposition has come upon me, brought me blessings and grace. And His judgment has saved me, purified and protected me. By the harsh words of GodHis chastisement and judgment, I am saved and I know Him.”

Chorus

That’s the path walked by those who are being made perfect, that’s the knowledge of which they speak. They’re people who’ve gained life, people who are like Peter, people who possess God’s truth. When they walk this path till the end, through chastisement and judgment, they’ll surely be cleansed, they’ll completely get rid of the influence of Satan, and they will be gained by God.

Christian Testimonies | I Overcome Satan’s Temptations by Relying on God
Sep 13, 2019
By Xinzhi, Australia
When returning to South Africa to handle some affairs in December 2017, I met a sister in the Lord, who told me that the Lord Jesus has returned as the incarnated Almighty God. She also fellowshiped with me in detail about such truths and mysteries as God’s six-thousand-year management plan, the purpose of God’s three stages of work and the significance of God’s name. After listening to her fellowship, I felt both amazed and excited. I had never before heard these truths, but I knew that only God Himself could reveal the mysteries of His work. I therefore became certain from the bottom of my heart that Almighty God is the Lord Jesus returned, and I gladly accepted Almighty God’s work of the last days. Every day, I enjoyed the watering and supply of God’s words and I felt incredibly at ease and supported. Little did I know, however, that Satan’s temptations were hiding just around the corner …

 Xu Qiang    Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region
My name is Xu Qiang. I was once a project contractor. I led many people to undertake contracted projects every year and had a good income. In the eyes of my contemporaries, I had a happy family and smooth career and had a great future, so I should be the happiest man. However, while enjoying the material life, I felt an unexplainable emptiness in my heart. Especially in order to undertake contracted projects, I had to ingratiate myself with the leaders of the relevant departments all day, observing their speech and behavior and fawning and flattering them. All those had to be handled extremely well, or I couldn’t earn money. Moreover, people of the same trade intrigued against one another and guarded and schemed against one another, which made me exhaust all mental efforts…. Thus, I felt very bitter and tired and felt as if I became a puppet and a moneymaking machine, losing my dignity and integrity completely. In 1999, I accepted Almighty God’s end-time work. The feeling of release in the church life and the simplicity and honesty of the brothers and sisters made me deeply moved. I liked very much to live the church life and even more liked to stay with the brothers and sisters, and I treasured such time very much. As I read God’s word and attended meetings constantly, I understood many truths and was greatly released in my heart. I felt very thankful that I had found the true human life and the true happiness. And my heart was full of gratitude to God. If God didn’t save me from the sea of misery of the world, I would never have hope in my life. Later, I began to preach the gospel, running joyfully and tirelessly among the people who investigated the true way, so that they could receive Almighty God’s salvation earlier.

Christian Testimonies | Through the Great Tribulation, I Have Reaped Great Benefits (Part 1)

Mar 3, 2015
By Rongguang
God said: “Based on their different functions and testimonies, the overcomers within the kingdom will serve as priests or followers, and all those who are victorious amid tribulation will become the body of priests within the kingdom. … In the body of priests there will be chief priests and priests, and the remainder will be the sons and people of God. This is all determined by their testimonies to God during tribulation; they are not titles that are given at whim” (“God’s Work and Man’s Practice” in The Word Appears in the Flesh). “The time of the tribulation will not be too protracted—it will not even be a year. If it were to last for a year it would delay the next step of work, and people’s stature would be inadequate. If it were too long they wouldn’t be able to withstand it—their stature has its limitations” (“How You Should Walk the Last Leg of the Path” in The Word Appears in the Flesh). When I read these words, I thought: “Position in the kingdom will be determined based on how people testify during the tribulation; these testimonies could influence someone’s fate. When the tribulation comes upon me, I will have to grit my teeth and put forth enough energy, and I will certainly offer a beautiful testimony. That way I will be able to obtain great blessings; besides, the tribulation won’t last too long–it will be less than a year. No matter what happens, I’ll be able to endure this period of hardship.” By being dominated by thoughts of obtaining blessings I made up my mind to get ready for the tribulation; I thought that by relying on my own “faith” and “will,” I would be able to be an overcomer in the tribulation.

Christian Testimonies | Rise Up in the Dark Oppression | Religious Persecution

Jan 19, 2015
Mo Zhijian    Guangdong Province

I was born in a poor remote mountain village. People there burned incense and worshiped Buddha for generations. Temples were everywhere, and each household burned incense. No one believed in God. In 1995, my wife and I believed in the Lord Jesus in another place. After returning home, we began to preach the gospel. Later, the number of the believers gradually increased to over one hundred. Because more and more people believed in God, the local government was alarmed. One day in 1997, the police asked me to go to the local police station. The director of the County Public Security Bureau, the director of the County Bureau for State Security, the director of the County Administration of Religious Affairs, the chief of the local police station, and some policemen had already been waiting there. The director of the County Public Security Bureau questioned me, “Why do you believe in God? Who do you get in touch with? Where do you get the Bibles? Why don’t you go to the church to have meetings?” I answered, “The constitution stipulates explicitly that the citizens enjoy freedom of belief. Why don’t you allow us to believe in God freely?” The director of the County Administration of Religious Affairs said, “There is a scope for the freedom of religious belief. It’s just like a bird in a cage. Although its wings and feet are not bound, it can only move around in the cage.” Hearing his fallacy, I was very indignant. I said angrily, “Then the government is deceiving the common people!” Hearing my word, they knew they were in the wrong, so they had nothing to say and could only let me go home. At that time I had no knowledge of the CCP government’s substance of persecuting people in believing in God. In 1999, I accepted Almighty God’s end-time work. Only through reading God’s word and experiencing the crueler persecution of the CCP government did I see clearly that it is exactly the embodiment of satan the evil spirit and is God’s enemy. It is just as the Bible says, “And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceives the whole world.” (Revelation 12:9)

The Church of Almighty God | (Part 1) Questions and Answers on Rapture

Question 1: You witness that the Lord Jesus has returned, and that He has appeared and worked in China, I believe that it is true because this is what the Lord Jesus had prophesied in the Bible: “For as the lightning comes out of the east, and shines even to the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be” (Mat 24:27). But we think that the Lord will return in the last days to bring us into the kingdom of heaven, or at least He should lift us to the clouds to meet with Him in the air. Just as Paul said in the Bible, “Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord” (1Ts 4:17). But why hasn't the Lord come as described in the Bible? What does Almighty God's judgment work in the last days have to do with us being brought into the kingdom of heaven?
