Christian Testimonies | Through the Great Tribulation, I Have Reaped Great Benefits (Part 2)

Mar 3, 2015

Not more than a few days after I had returned home, a sister came to notify me of a church gathering. When I heard the sister say that the tribulation was over, and that everything had returned back to normal, and that I could go and fulfill my former duty, it took a moment before I realized: “What? The tribulation is over? This was the tribulation? How could the tribulation have ended? This is not what I expected! All along these things we have been experiencing were the tribulation, now I am finished! What did I manifest during the tribulation? Besides being cowardly and afraid, I complained, escaped, and betrayed. I didn’t have any components of faith, not to mention loyalty and love. This time God has tested my work and I completely failed.” I hung my head in despair with all kinds of feelings in my heart.

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.

The words of God are full of life, offering us the path we should walk, the comprehension of what the truth is. We begin to be drawn to His words; we begin to focus on the tone and manner of His speaking, and be intentional to care about this ordinary person's inner voice.

Testimonies of Christians | I Have Found True Happiness

By Zhang Hua, Cambodia

I was born into an ordinary farming family. Even though my family was not wealthy, my father and mother loved each other and treated me very well. Our family life was quite abundant and blessed. After I grew up, I told myself: I must find a husband that will treat me well and I must establish a blissful and happy family. This is what is most important. I do not seek riches, I only need to have a loving relationship with my husband and a peaceful family life.

Praise Hymns | The Most Meaningful Life

As a created being, you should worship God. As a created being, you must pursue the most meaningful life. You are people who pursue the right path. You are people who seek progress. You are people who rise up in the nation of the great red dragon. You are people whom God calls righteous. Isn't that the most meaningful life, the most meaningful life?

Lin Ling    Shandong Province

I was born in a poor peasant family. Because my family didn’t have power or influence, I was looked down upon and often bullied by others from my childhood. At such times, I felt especially aggrieved and distressed and expected from my heart that a savior could come to change my destiny. After marriage, my life was tough and my child often got ill, so a neighbor preached Jesus to me. Learning that the Lord Jesus could save those who suffered hardships and afflictions from the sea of misery, I was very excited in my heart, feeling that I finally found the savior. From then on, I believed in Jesus and was very zealous, often going to different places to attend meetings and listen to preachings. Later, however, I found that the church became more and more desolate and the phenomenon of jealousy and strife and scheming against one another became more and more serious, which was no better than the world. I was very disappointed and my faith grew cold gradually, and I didn’t attend meetings any more.

 Top Gospel Song of All Time | Be Dauntless on the Path of Loving God

The bumpy path makes my love purer. God's words of judgment are always with me. His righteousness burns me like a fire, and now I see how corrupt I've become.

I

God's judgment drives out my rebellion. Suffering has taught me how to obey. My love for God brings me closer to Him, and to bear witness to Him is my wish. I see now that judgment is God's blessing. To gain truth, we must suffer much pain. The lazy, the timid, and the cowardly can never bear witness for Him. I wish to suffer more to satisfy God. Persecution strengthens my love for Him. Be of one mind with God, expend it all for Him. Love Him, follow His will, strive to reach what He asks. With all my will and faith multiplied a hundred-fold, I march toward real human life. Success beckons me on.
