(3) - The Difference Between the Normal Humanity of Christ and the Humanity of Corrupt Mankind



God incarnates to save man and, from the outside, God incarnate appears to be an ordinary person. But do you know the essential difference between God incarnate's normal humanity and the humanity of corrupt mankind? Almighty God says, "The flesh worn by the Spirit of God is God's own flesh. The Spirit of God is supreme; He is almighty, holy, and righteous. So likewise, His flesh is also supreme, almighty, holy, and righteous. ... despite the fact that man and Christ dwell within the same space, it is only man who is dominated, used, and entrapped by Satan. By contrast, Christ is eternally impervious to Satan's corruption, because Satan will never be capable of ascending to the place of the most high, and will never be able to draw near to God" (The Word Appears in the Flesh).

Gospel Movie clip "The Mystery of Godliness: The Sequel" (2) - How to Understand God Incarnate



In the last days, God has become flesh to work to save man. But because we don't understand the truth of the incarnation, we regard God incarnate as the same as an ordinary person, we cannot recognize God's voice and we know even less how to welcome the Lord—to the point where we are even able to follow the religious world and ruling powers to defy and condemn God—the situation becomes no different from when God incarnated as the Lord Jesus to do His work of the Age of Grace. It appears, therefore, that understanding the truth of the incarnation is key to our knowing God. So what exactly is the incarnation? What is the essence of the incarnation?

"The Mystery of Godliness: The Sequel" (1) - How Will the Lord Appear to Man When He Comes Again?


Over the centuries since the Lord Jesus resurrected and ascended to heaven, we believers have yearned eagerly for Jesus the Savior's return. Most people believe that it will be the spiritual body of the resurrected Jesus that will appear to us when the Lord returns. But why has God appeared to man incarnating as the Son of man in the last days? Almighty God says, "If God does not become flesh, He remains the Spirit both invisible and intangible to man. Man is a creature of flesh, and man and God belong to two different worlds and are different in nature. The Spirit of God is incompatible with man of flesh, and no relations can be established between them...." "Only through becoming flesh can He personally deliver His words to the ears of all so that all who have ears can hear His words and receive His work of judgment by the word. Only such is the result achieved by His word ..." (The Word Appears in the Flesh).

God With Me | Faith Christian Movie "Sweetness in Adversity"



Han Lu is a leader of the Church of Almighty God in the Chinese mainland. She has believed in God for over a decade and has experienced the work of Almighty God in the last days. She understands some truths and knows that it is only through Christ of the last days, Almighty God, that man will be able to be freed from sin and live a significant life. She has cast away everything to follow Almighty God, and she has gone around and testified to God's appearance and work in the last days. However, in China where the atheist political party the CCP is in power, there is no freedom of religious belief whatsoever. The CCP government has issued secret documents completely banning all house churches, and they have frantically captured and persecuted Christians. Han Lu and others were monitored and tracked by the CCP police officers, which led to their capture. The CCP police officers have brutally tortured Han Lu to try to rob the church of its wealth and capture more church leaders, and they have also used rumors and fallacies to try to brainwash her, used her family to try and coerce her, and other despicable methods to try to threaten her in an attempt to compel her to deny God and betray God. … In her pain and weakness, Han Lu has relied on God and prayed to God, and under the guidance of the word of God, she has been able to see through all of Satan's tricks. She has made it through many interrogations under torture and has powerfully refuted the various rumors and fallacies of the CCP. Within the bitter environment of the CCP's persecution, a beautiful and resounding testimony has been made ...

Who Knows the Motherly Heart of God?

20. Who Knows the Motherly Heart of God?

Qingxin    Zhengzhou City, Henan Province
Regarding the “God is righteous” aspect of the truth, I used to always have a somewhat absurd understanding. I thought that as long as someone reveals corruption in their work or commits transgressions that damage the church’s work, that person shall face retribution, or lose their duty or be subjected to punishment. That is God’s righteousness. Given this incorrect understanding, plus the fear of losing my duty from committing mistakes in my work, I thought of a “clever” method: Whenever I do something wrong, I try my best to not let the leaders know first, and quickly try to make up for it myself and do my utmost to make it right. Won’t that then help me keep my duty? Hence, whenever I gave reports on my work, I would reduce big issues into small ones and small issues into nothing. If I was sometimes passive I would do my best to cover it up in front of the leaders and pretend to be very active and positive, terrified that the leaders would think I was incompetent and stop using me. So just like that, I would be very carefully guarded against the leaders in everything I did.

God’s Words Have Awakened Me

22. God’s Words Have Awakened Me

Miao Xiao    Jinan City, Shandong Province
In the past, I used to always think that when God said “a puppet and traitor who flees from the great white throne” He was referring to those who accept this stage of work but end up retreating because they are unwilling to bear the suffering of His chastisement and judgment. Therefore, whenever I saw brothers and sisters back out from this path for whatever reason, my heart would be filled with contempt toward them: There goes another puppet and traitor fleeing from the great white throne who shall receive God’s punishment. At the same time, I felt I was behaving properly in accepting God’s judgment and was not far from receiving God’s salvation.

With Life Hanging by a Thread, the Hand of God Came to the Rescue

Ling Wu    Japan


“If I were not saved by God, I would still be drifting in this world,
struggling hard and painfully in sin; every day gets bleak and hopeless.
If I were not saved by God, I’d still be crushed below the devil’s feet,
snared in sin and its enjoyments, ignorant of what my life would be.
If I were not saved by God, I’d be without my blessings here today,
much less know why we should live on or the meaning of our lives.
If I were not saved by God, I’d still be confused about my faith,
still in empty space passing the days, unaware in whom to put my faith.
I have finally understood God’s loving hand holds mine as we go.
