Enter the New Age!

“God is the truth, the way, and the life. His words and His appearance exist concurrently, and His disposition and footprints shall always be accessible to mankind. Dear brothers and sisters, I hope that you can see the appearance of God in these words, and will begin to follow His footprints toward a new age, and into a beautiful new heaven and new earth prepared for those who await the appearance of God” (The Word Appears in the Flesh).

Eastern Lightning| The Twenty-eighth Utterance

When I came from Zion, I was awaited by all things, and when I returned to Zion, I was greeted by all men. As I came and went, never were My steps hindered by things that were in enmity to Me, and hence My work progressed smoothly. Today, when I come among all creatures, all things greet Me with silence, deeply fearful that I will depart once more and remove their support. All things follow My guidance, and all watch the direction indicated by My hand. The words from My mouth have made perfect many creatures and chastised many sons of disobedience. Thus, all men gaze intently upon My words, and listen closely to the utterances from My mouth, and are profoundly afraid of missing this good opportunity. It is for this reason that I have continued to speak, so that My work may be carried out more quickly, and so that gratifying conditions may appear sooner on earth and remedy the scenes of desolation on earth. When I look upon the skies is when I once more turn to mankind; all lands are instantly filled with life, dust no longer hangs in the air, and mire no longer blankets the ground. My eyes at once shine forth, causing the people of all lands to look up to Me and take refuge in Me. Among the people of today’s world—including all those who are present in My household—who truly takes refuge in Me? Who gives their heart in exchange for the price I have paid? Who has ever dwelt in My household? Who has ever truly offered themselves before Me? When I make requirements of man, he immediately closes up his “little storehouse.” When I give to man, he quickly opens his mouth to take My riches stealthily, and in his heart he often trembles, deeply fearful that I will “strike back” at him. Thus the mouth of man is “half open and half closed,” and he is incapable of truly enjoying the riches that I bestow. I do not easily condemn man, yet he always “takes Me by the hand” and asks Me to bestow “mercy” upon him; only when man entreats Me do I once again bestow “mercy” upon him, and I give unto him the harshest words of My mouth, such that he immediately feels ashamed, and, being incapable of directly receiving My “mercy,” instead makes others “pass it on” to him. When he has thoroughly grasped all of My words, man’s stature is commensurate with My wishes, and his pleas are fruitful, and not in vain or futile; I bless the pleas of mankind that are sincere, and not a pretense.

Eastern Lightning| The Fourth Utterance

All of My people who serve before Me should think back on the past: Was your love for Me tainted by impurity? Was your loyalty to Me pure and wholehearted? Was your knowledge of Me true? How much of a place did I hold within your hearts? Did I fill their entirety? How much did My words accomplish within you? Don’t take Me for a fool! These things are perfectly clear to Me! Today, as the voice of My salvation is uttered forth, has there been some increase in your love for Me? Has part of your loyalty to Me become pure? Has your knowledge of Me deepened? Did the praise of the past lay a solid foundation for your knowledge today? How much of your inside is occupied by My Spirit? How much of a place does My image hold within you? Have My utterances struck you at your Achilles’ heel? Do you truly feel that you have nowhere to hide your shame? Do you truly believe that you are unqualified to be My people? If you are completely oblivious to the questions above, then this shows that you are fishing in murky waters, that you are only there to make up the numbers, and at the time preordained by Me, you will surely be eliminated and cast into the bottomless pit for a second time. These are My words of warning, and any who take them lightly will be struck by My judgment, and, at the appointed time, will be assailed by disaster. Is this not so? Do I still need to provide examples to illustrate this? Must I speak more plainly to provide a benchmark for you? From the time of creation until today, many people have disobeyed My words and thus been cast out and eliminated from My stream of recovery; ultimately, their bodies perish and their spirits are cast into Hades, and even today they are still subjected to grievous punishment. Many people have followed My words, but they have gone against My enlightenment and illumination, and have thus been kicked aside by Me, falling under the domain of Satan and becoming those who oppose Me. (Today all those who directly oppose Me obey only the superficialities of My words, and disobey the substance of My words.) There have been many, too, who have merely listened to the words I spoke yesterday, who have held on to the junk of the past and not treasured the produce of the present day. These people have not only been taken captive by Satan, but have become eternal sinners and become My enemies, and they directly oppose Me. Such people are the objects of My judgment at the height of My wrath, and today they are still blind, still within the dark dungeons (which is to say, such people are rotten, benumbed corpses that are controlled by Satan; because their eyes have been veiled by Me, I say that they are blind). It would be well to provide an example for your reference, so that you can learn from it:
