    Adhering to the Lord’s Name and Defending His Way

    Liu Jie believed in the Lord Jesus because of illness, and after her recovery, she preached the Lord’s holy name everywhere and shepherded brothers and sisters. When she saw the scripture, “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved” (Acts 4:12), she resolved secretly that whatever environments she encountered, she would adhere to the Lord Jesus’s name and swear on her life to follow Him until the end and she would never betray the Lord!

Christian Video "Honesty Is Priceless" Only the Honest Can Enter the Kingdom of Heaven (Full Movie)

Introduction

Zhen Cheng was the owner of an appliance repair shop. He was kind, honest, and did business by the book. He would never try to pull the wool over someone's eyes, but he was only making enough money to barely support his family. After a time, a family member and a fellow tradesman urged him to practice the unwritten rules of business, and Zhen Cheng began to believe in sayings that represent a satanic philosophy such as: "A man without a second income will never get rich just like a horse starved of hay at night will never put on weight," "The bold die of gluttony; the timid die of starvation," "Money isn't everything, but without it, you can do nothing," and "Money is first." Zhen Cheng lost his good conscience that had guided him before and began using underhanded means to earn more money. Even though he earned more money than he had previously, and his living standards improved, Zhen Cheng nonetheless felt unhappy and a feeling of emptiness plagued him; life was hollow and fraught with suffering.

Eastern Lightning | I Was Once Kidnapped in My Seventh Month of Pregnancy…

March 26, 2018

By Li Ai, Italy

   “Freeze! Don’t scream. If you are not obedient, I will stab you, then your two lives will cease to exist.” A ferocious gangster with a knife threatened me, an unarmed pregnant woman. Over ten years have passed since, but I am still haunted when I think of it now, much more often I feel grateful to God. At the crucial moment, without God’s protection, I really didn’t know what would happen!

Eastern Lightning | Stop Being Loyal to Riches, I Live For God（2)

By Zhenglu, United States

I had to work for six days a week because of the needs of work. So I appointed Sundays for the meetings. But sometimes on Sunday I would do some extra work for making money, which caused me to miss the gatherings. Knowing this, brothers and sisters fellowshiped with me about the importance of attending gatherings. I pondered this and thought what they said was true indeed: My understanding of God’s word is, after all, limited when I read at home on my own. But when I had meetings with brothers and sisters together, it was different. Everyone shared his own knowledge and in this way I did understand more. By comparison, to attend gathering is still more beneficial to me. But then I thought: Attending gatherings is important; yet earning money is also very important.… Indeed, every time after gathering, I did get some understanding of God’s word and felt bright in my heart, this simply cannot be obtained in exchange for my money, no matter how much I earn. In this way, I kept turning this over in my mind and did not know how to choose. Just as I was worried, I came before God and prayed to Him, “O God! I feel as if I were standing at the crossroad, not knowing how to choose between attending gatherings and making money. May You guide and enlighten me to understand Your will and choose according to Your will.”

Eastern Lightning | Where Is My Home

Introduction

Wenya's parents separated when she was two, and after that she lived with her father and stepmother. Her stepmother couldn't stand her and was always arguing with her father. He had little choice—he had to send Wenya to her mother's house, but her mother was fully focused on running her business and didn't have any time to take care of Wenya, so she was often shuttled off to her relatives' and friends' homes to be fostered. After so many years of a life of foster care, young Wenya felt lonely and helpless, and longed for the warmth of a home. Only when her father and stepmother divorced did she return to her father's side, and from then on had a home, for better or for worse.

The Mankind Living Under God’s Authority

Mankind, who lives among all things, has been corrupted and deceived by Satan,
but he still can’t forgo the water made by God,
and the air and all things made by God.
Mankind still lives and proliferates in this space created by God.

How Can My Young, Brash, and Arrogant Self Get Along With My Grandmother?

Picture of the Church of Almighty God

My name is An Qi. Before the age of six, I was living at my grandmother’s house. At the time, my grandmother was the person with whom I felt closest to. Each day when I went to the kindergarten, my grandmother decided which clothes I would wear and how I would comb my hair. I felt that my grandmother did these things the best. Gradually, I grew up and I started to disapprove of some of the things that my grandmother did. My grandmother also started to disapprove of me as well. Each time I went to her house, she would scold me. If she wasn’t nagging me on one thing, she would be nagging me about something else. I felt very upset.

Put the Burden Aside, Pray to God Within Your Heart

By Yuanzhi, Brazil

Picture of the Church of Almighty God

Thank the almighty and one true God! I have followed God for 11 months since July, 2016. In the past 11 months, I have experienced much of God’s love, which made me grow under His care and protection. In the period I have also experienced trials, refinements, chastisements, and judgments. Bit by bit, I truly perceive that God’s disposition is not only merciful and loving, but also majestic and wrathful. However, no matter what God does, it is all to transform and perfect me ultimately. Thank God for His salvation!

The Significance For God Making Clothes for Adam and Eve | Eastern Lightning

The Significance For God Making Clothes for Adam and Eve

By Xiangyi

     I remembered that in the first biology class in middle school, our teacher once asked us what the mankind’s ancestors’ first piece of clothing was made of. At that time, my classmates offered various answers. Some said that it was made of grass; some said that it was made of linen. … I had ever come across an extracurricular book that mentioned this question, so I said with assuredness, “It was made of leaves.” My answer won the teacher’s affirmation and approval. And from then on I believed confidently that mankind’s ancestors used leaves to make their own first piece of clothing.
