Eastern Lightning | The Testimony of a Christian | God’s Love Strengthened My Heart

🙏🌺Xiao Li    Liaoning Province🙏🌺

  I had a harmonious family. My husband cared for and looked after me and our son was sensible and obedient, and moreover, our family was well-off. By rights, I should be very happy, but the fact was not so. No matter how good my husband and son were to me, and no matter how well-off my family was, it couldn’t make me happy. That was because I had lung disease, arthritis, and serious insomnia. I couldn’t sleep the whole night, my brain was lack of blood supply, and my limbs were weak. I felt very distressed but was unable to be free from them. The pressure in my business and the tortures of the illnesses caused me to suffer unspeakably. Those illnesses even more made me feel extremely miserable. To get free from those sufferings, I tried many ways, but in vain.

  In March, 1999, a friend of mine preached Almighty God’s end-time gospel to me. Through reading God’s word every day and having meetings and fellowshipping with the brothers and sisters constantly, I understood many truths and knew many mysteries that I had never heard, and I was certain that Almighty God is indeed the returned Jesus, so I was very excited. Every day, I read God’s word thirstily. I also attended the church life, and often had meetings, prayed, and sang hymns and danced to praise God with the brothers and sisters. My heart was full of peace and joy, and my mental outlook got better and better. Unknowingly, I recovered from my diseases little by little. I often offered my thanks and praises to God for that, really hoping that all people would come to enjoy God’s love and salvation. Not long afterward, the church assigned me to take charge of the gospel work, and I threw myself into it with full enthusiasm. However, I had never expected that….

Gospel Movie clip (2) - Is There a Basis in the Bible for the Lord's Return Through Incarnation?!

💖👀🕊📘Thoughts after reading:💖👀🕊📘

When God comes, it's true that no one knows, the Son of man doesn't know, only the Father knows. That refers to the moment when God comes, because God's Spirit coming to flesh is in secret. But when God begins to work publicly and express the truth, when we see God's work, we know that God has come back. Just as before the Lord Jesus began to work, no one knew that He is God; but when He began to work, people heard the truth expressed by Him and gaiend a knowledge of Him, that is, they saw God. Revelation 2:7 says, "He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit said to the churches". So, in the last days, when we hear God's voice, that means we've seen God's appearance. If we couldn't see God, how could He work among us? Then wouldn't His work on man become in vain?


Many people in welcoming the second coming of the Lord only attach importance to the prophecy in Scripture that the Lord will descend from the clouds to come again while neglecting the prophecy that the second coming of the Lord is through incarnation. They declare as false any way that bears witness to the second coming of the Lord as God become flesh. Is their understanding and practice consistent with Scripture? In regard to the Lord's return through incarnation, how actually is it prophesied in Scripture?

Eastern Lightning | The Testimony of a Christian | In Prison at the Prime of Youth


truth,Judgment,God’s family,God’s will,Jesus

Chenxi, Hebei Province

  Everyone says the prime of our youth is the most splendid and purest time of life. Perhaps for many, those years are full of beautiful memories, but what I never would have expected was that I spent the prime of my own youth in prison. You might look at me strangely for this, but I do not regret it. Even though that time behind bars was full of bitterness and tears, it was the most precious gift of my life, and I gained a great deal from it.

  I was born into a happy family, and since childhood have worshiped Jesus along with my mom. When I was fifteen, my family and I, convinced that Almighty God is Jesus come again, gladly accepted His work of the last days.

Eastern Lightning | The Testimony of a Christian | God’s Word Led Me to Forge Testimony

Xiao Min    Shandong Province

  I was born in a poor and backward village, and lived in poverty from childhood. After I got married, to make my little life become rich as soon as possible, I worked and labored like crazy. In the end, I fell sick from overwork. The previously healthy me got many illnesses. Since then, I lived in the affliction of illnesses and began to see doctors and seek remedies everywhere. I spent a lot of money, but my illnesses never got better. In the spring of 1999, two sisters preached Almighty God’s end-time work to me. Through reading Almighty God’s word, I knew that Almighty God is the returned Savior Jesus and He can save man from all the miseries. As I read more and more of God’s words, I understood some truths, my outlook on life and my values changed somewhat, and my distressed and oppressed heart was released. Gradually, I recovered from my illnesses. I was deeply grateful to God, so I preached the gospel to testify God’s end-time work actively.


  However, not long afterward, I was arrested by the CCP government three times in succession because of that. Every time, I overcame satan’s persecution under the leading of Almighty God. In 2012, once when performing duty, I fell into the devil’s den again and was tortured cruelly by satan the devil….

Eastern Lightning | Christian Movie | Who Can Change Your Life | ''Unchaining the Heart''


Chen Zhi was born into an impoverished farming family. At school, "Knowledge can change your fate" and "One's destiny is in his own hand" as taught by the school became his mottos. He believed that as long as he constantly worked hard, he would be able to be a cut above the rest, and achieve merit and fame. On graduation from university, Chen Zhi found a quite well-paid job in foreign trade. However, he was not at all satisfied with his current circumstances. In order to realize his ideal of being a cut above others, he quit his job and set up his own trading company. But the good times did not last for long. Because the operation was not well-run, clients became fewer, and the company's business slackened off. In the end, the company could not continue operating. After the firm went out of business, Chen Zhi was most unwilling to accept failure. He believed that by relying on his own intelligence and ability, as long as he persevered he would be able to make a comeback. Later on, Chen Zhi set up a digital marketing website and established a business on the Internet. After rushing about busily for a number of years, he still ended up in failure. Chen Zhi sank into profound distress and hopelessness … In 2016, Chen Zhi's family went to the United States to live. With the help of his wife, he accepted the last days' work of Almighty God. Through reading the words of God, Chen Zhi eventually understood that God controls the destiny of mankind, and that man simply cannot change his own destiny relying on his own ability. He also knew the source of man's distress during his life, and how Satan has corrupted mankind. He came to know that if man is to live a meaningful life, then he must come before God, accept the judgment and chastisement of God's words to obtain cleansing, and live relying on the words of God, and only then will he obtain God's praise. Chen Zhi understood some truths in the words of Almighty God, established a correct outlook on life, entrusted his whole life to God, obeyed God's control and arrangements, and finally rid himself of the yoke on his soul of "One's destiny is in his own hand," and obtained release and freedom. From then on he walked onto the bright and correct path of life.

Eastern Lightning | Christian Experience Articles | God’s Word Created Miracles of Life

Yang Li    Jiangxi Province
 When I was a child, my mother died. I shouldered the family burden at a young age. After getting married, I was even more loaded down with the burden of life. Having fully tasted the hardship and misery of life, I gradually became depressed and silent and fiddled my life away day by day. In 2002, when the brothers and sisters preached Almighty God’s end-time work to me, I accepted it readily and also brought my husband and children before Almighty God. From then on, the brothers and sisters often came to my home to have meetings. We fellowshipped about God’s word and sang hymns and danced to praise God together. I felt great enjoyment in my heart and no longer felt distressed or worried. My children said that I was getting younger and younger and more and more cheerful. My family often read God’s word together. From God’s word, we understood many truths and also knew that God’s eager intention is to save man. To repay God’s love and bring those who had been afflicted by satan like me before God earlier to be saved, I went out to preach the gospel. Unexpectedly, I suffered the CCP government’s cruel persecution because of that….

 It was past 7 p.m. on November 23, 2005. Two sisters and I were having a meeting. Suddenly, there was a violent knocking on the door. Realizing that it might be the police, I hurriedly put the books of God’s word away. As expected, very soon the door was kicked open and five evil cops frantically rushed in and surrounded us. The heading one shouted, “You can’t run away! Search!” Immediately, the whole house was turned upside down. Afterward, they confiscated our handbags and a hymnal, and then handcuffed us and took us to the police station. In face of such a situation, I was very afraid in the heart and desperately cried to God to keep us. At that time, I remembered a passage of God’s words, “Do you know that all the surrounding circumstances are permitted by me and arranged by me? See this clearly. Satisfy my heart in the circumstances that I have given you. Do not fear this or that. The Almighty God of hosts will surely be with you. He will be your rear guard and shield.” (from “The Twenty-sixth Piece of Word” in The Word Appears in the Flesh) God’s words gave me great faith and strength and removed my timidity, and I had courage in my heart. Yes! All matters and all things are in God’s hand. The evil cops are also controlled and manipulated in God’s hand. With Almighty God as my strong rear guard, I shall fear nothing. I should learn the lessons I ought to learn in the circumstance which comes upon me and rely on God to stand testimony.
