The Deeper Will That God Created Man

The Deeper Will That God Created Man

May 24, 2018

By Lin Jing

It used to be that when I saw such words recorded in Genesis: “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them” (Gen 1:26-27), I thought that God creating man is to make man manage well all things on the earth, which was why God created man. But it was not until later I saw the words of God in one book that I understood the meaning of God’s creation of mankind is profound and long-lasting.

Time flies like an arrow, and years pass in an eyeblink.

Having sent away the last flake of snow, the year 2018 tiptoes in …

Standing before the landmark of a new year, I couldn’t help looking back to the way behind me:

How was it that I got it through?

Many things have quietly faded away, away from my heart;

Many people have receded from my memory;

Only my knowledge of God grows increasingly clear in my experience.

It was a brilliantly sunny day in March. Since my sick leave was coming to an end and I was seldom at leisure, I took my cellphone, a bottle of mineral water, and along a winding path I started to climb the mountain located in the east side of the city. As I climbed while listening to the music, I became breathless. The mountain looked not very high, but it took me over an hour to reach the summit.

Christian Testimony: It’s Such a Joy to Be an Honest Person

By Xiao Li, Japan

In real life, we are always vexed at such things. For example, you say a few careless words to someone, but unexpectedly she replies in a cold manner. It turns out that she has misinterpreted your remarks. Then you hurry to explain, but it doesn’t help the matter. Another example, a friend suddenly treats you coldly. When you have no idea what happened, another friend tells you what you said the other day has caused her to think that you were ridiculing her. Hearing this, you will cry out, “She does me an injustice! I didn’t mean that at all. How could she misinterpret it like that? How narrow-minded she is!” At this time, you must be gloomy, sorry, and helpless about it.

March 19, 2017 was the day when I flied to Australia to study. During the whole process from making preparation to successfully having all the paperwork done, God was leading me all along by my side. At the thought of this, I felt very grateful to God. But as the departure date drew nearer day by day, I became more and more afraid, and even was totally perplexed when thinking of these: It’s my first time to go abroad; without my parents’ company, I have to face a lot of challenges by myself such as getting my boarding pass, getting past the security checkpoint, checking in, going through the entry formalities, and so on; what’s more, my English is not good, which will make it hard for me to communicate with others.

Eastern Lightning | God Heals My Flesh and Soul

By Zhao Wei

I was born in a poor family. My parents tried to make ends meet by working as laborers. Therefore, people in the village all looked down on us. My parents told me to study hard to be outstanding so that someday we could live a better life. I kept their words in mind and spent most of time in studying while others were playing, hoping to be successful and change my fate. My hard study paid off. I always was the top student in the class since primary school. Fortunately, in 2006 I entered the No. 1 Senior High School in our city with excellent scores. I was the only one in our village that could go to this elite school at that time. I saw the gratified smiles on my parents’ faces when they heard the news. People in the village cast us admiring looks, too.

 The Solution Is Putting Myself Aside and Practicing the Truth

 Afterward, I read another passage of God’s word: “Approval from God is the first thing you should think about and work for; it should be the principle and scope in your practice. The reason that you should determine if what you are doing conforms with truth is because if it conforms with truth, then it certainly conforms with God’s will.

By Xiaofang

    I, who was over 20, set feet on the work-life road and began to find my better half. I always heard my female colleagues said, “If I wish to get a husband, I’ll find such a nice man as Master Zhang, who plays first fiddle either at home or in the company. He is not only a money-earner who has great skill, but also an amiable person who has a good temper. In the company, he is highly spoken of by others, and at home, he is considerate of and takes good care of his wife and undertakes the housework. One who gets such a husband will enjoy the blessing all this life.” I ever heard my friends who had gotten married said, “If you find the right man, you will be happy in the rest of life. If not, then just wait to be subject to suffering.” Hearing these hearty words of those who had come away from marriage, I hoped that I could find a model husband who had all the strengths. Meanwhile, I set a standard of choosing a spouse for myself: He must be capable, talkative, honest and dutiful as well as success in making money.

    Afterward, I returned to China. My wife took me to a sister’s house where brothers and sisters again preached the kingdom gospel of Almighty God to me. I thought to myself: Since I’ll have to face this sooner or later, today I’d like to listen to what has really been preached in Eastern Lightning. Meantime, I constantly prayed to the Lord silently, asking Him to protect my heart. Brother Hu said to me: “Brother Zhang, I heard that your wife has testified to you the kingdom gospel of Almighty God. If there is anything you don’t understand, you can bring it up; then we could seek and fellowship it together.” I said bluntly: “You say that God has been incarnated again to express the truth and do the work of judgment in the last days; I disagree with such a saying. All of God’s words and work are recorded in the Bible; the truths in the Bible are already complete; there is no need for God to return to do a new work or express new words. I can’t accept the kingdom gospel you witness.”

Short Sketch From the Christian Church | "The Police Pay a New Year Visit" (English Dubbed)

    Introduction
    Zheng Xinming, an elderly man of nearly seventy, is a devout Christian. Because of his faith in the Lord, he was detained and imprisoned, and sentenced to eight years. On his release, he was still listed by the Chinese Communist police as a target of focused monitoring. In particular, after the old man accepted Almighty God's work in the last days, the police came almost every day to terrorize, intimidate and disturb him. There was no way that Zheng Xinming could normally read the word of God at home, and even his family members shared his state of anxiety. Now it is New Year's Eve and the old man is at home reading God's word, not knowing what may happen …
