A Hymn of God's Words

The Principle of the Holy Spirit's Work

I

The Holy Spirit doesn't work one-sided, and man cannot work alone.Man works side by side with God's Spirit.It's done with both together.Man's effort and the Holy Spirit's work yield knowledge of God's word.Gradually from daily walking this way, a perfect person can be made.To be enlightened, to be illuminated by the Holy Spirit takes some work, through cooperation and actively praying, searching and coming closer to God.

II

God doesn't do things that are supernatural, but man thinksGod takes on all things.He just waits, doesn't read God's word or pray, and waits for the touch of the Spirit.But those who understand think differently:God works by how I act.The effect of His work depends on me.I should strive to meet His word.To be enlightened, to be illuminated by the Holy Spirit takes some work, through cooperation and actively praying, searching and coming closer to God.

III

The more people learn to do their part, the more they pursue the attainment of the standards of God's requirements, the greater the Holy Spirit's work.To be enlightened, to be illuminated by the Holy Spirit takes some work, through cooperation and actively praying, searching and coming closer to God.
