How to Know God’s Disposition and the Result of His Work (Part Three)


How God Establishes Man’s Outcome and the Standard by Which He Establishes Man’s Outcome

Before you have any of your own views or conclusions, you should first understand God’s attitude toward you, what God is thinking, and then decide whether or not your own thinking is correct. God has never used units of time to establish a person’s outcome, and He has never used the amount of suffering endured by someone to establish their outcome. Then what does God use as a standard for establishing man’s outcome?

I Have Come to Know How to Distinguish Between the True Christ and False Christs (Part 1)

I Have Come to Know How to Distinguish Between the True Christ and False Christs
March 28, 2018
Chuanyang, United States

In 2010, the winter in the United States made me feel very cold. In addition to the bitter cold from the combination of wind and snow, what was even more serious was that my heart had been invaded and attacked by a “cold wave.” For those of us in the interior decorating business, winter is the hardest time of the year, because once winter starts there is very little work. We even face losing our jobs. This year was my first year in the United States, I was fresh off the boat, and I felt that everything was unfamiliar to me. Renting an apartment, finding a job, nothing was easy, and my days were full of hardships.

Eastern Lightning | Disturbances From the “May 28” Rumor (Part 1)

Disturbances From the “May 28” Rumor (Part 1)
April 28, 2018
Xingwu, France

The First Time I Heard This Rumor a Shadow Was Cast Over My Heart

My mother is a devout Christian. Ever since I was old enough to understand things, she would often tell me stories about the Lord Jesus, telling me that the Lord Jesus is the only true God. When I was 13 years old I went with my mom to church. At that time I really enjoyed listening to the pastors’ sermons, and I had a great deal of faith. I would actively participate in every fellowship. But I gradually discovered that there was no illumination in the sermons preached by the pastors. They always repeated some theories and knowledge of the Bible or some theological theories, and as time went on I didn’t receive the least bit of pleasure from listening to their sermons, nor did I feel I was being provided with life. Therefore, I started going to fellowships less and less frequently.

Christian Debate: Why Bible Isn’t Inspired by God?

Christian Debate: Why Bible Isn’t Inspired by God?
April 6, 2018
By Xiaocaof


Pondering in silent night:

Brothers and sisters, is everybody here? Here’s a question I really can’t figure it out. Today I want to seek your understanding of it.

In 2 Timothy 3:16, Brother Paul said, “All scripture is given by inspiration of God.” I, as well as many brothers and sisters, think that all words in the Bible are given by inspiration of God and they are all God’s words, and we never doubt it. However, recently when I read the Bible, I found some contradictions in it unexpectedly. The Bible says: “Jehoiachin was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem” (2 Chronicles 36:9). But it also says: “Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months” (2 Kings 24:8). From the two verses we can see 2 Chronicles says it was at eight that Jehoiachin began to reign while 2 Kings says it was at eighteen. What’s more, 2 Chronicles says he reigned three months and ten days while 2 Kings says he reigned three months. If all the words in the Bible are God’s words and given by inspiration of God, then one thing should be recorded the same, and there should be no contradictions. Why are there different versions of the same thing? I am confused whether or not the Bible is given by inspiration of God now.

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.”

The Only Solution For Feeling Empty: The Spiritual Salvation


🌷 The conversation between Lily and her grandma 🤶
In a quiet Summer evening. Lily and her grandma sit on the gate of the yard and enjoy the cool.
🌷 Lily: Grandma, Why do you have white hair and wrinkles? Why did your teeth all drop out?
🤶 Grandma: Honey, because I’m old. I spend my whole life to bring up my children. And I can leave the world peacefully without any regret in the end.
🌷 Lily: Where are you going? I don’t want to let you go! I want you to stay with me forever!

The conversation between them make me think: Where do people come from and go away? The mystery of life reveals to us step by step as the scene and voice fades in.

    On July 21, 2012, a very heavy rain began to fall. That day I just happened to have a duty to perform, so after our meeting was finished and I saw that the rain had lightened up a bit, I rushed home on my bike. Only when I got onto the highway did I discover that water was rushing down from the mountain like a waterfall, and the road was so covered in splashing rainwater that the surface couldn’t be seen very clearly anymore.

Eastern Lightning | What Allows Me to Regain a Happy Life?


What Allows Me to Regain a Happy Life?

January 30, 2018
Xiaoping

This is an age when people care very much about physical attractiveness and a good looking body. With a beautiful face and a slim figure, I turned heads no matter what kind of clothes I wore. People around me often praised me and envied that I had both a great figure and a great face, and my husband was also very kind to me. Because of this, I was especially confident. No matter where I went, I walked with my head held high and my back straight. I displayed myself to receive praise from others. In my heart I believed: As long as a woman has a graceful figure and a pretty face, she could rewrite her own life.
