The Substance of Christ Is God I God who becomes flesh

AlmightyGod says, "The meaning of incarnation is that God appears in the flesh, and He comes to work among man of His creation in the image of a flesh. So, for God to be incarnated, He must first be flesh, flesh with normal humanity; this, at the very least, must be true. In fact, the implication of God’s incarnation is that God lives and works in the flesh, God in His very essence becomes flesh, becomes a man. " 
Jehovah, Jesus,Christ,Bible,Holy Spirit


I
God who becomes flesh
is called Christ,
so the Christ
that can give people truth
is called God.
It is not too much to say like that.
For He possesses
the substance of God.
He possesses God's disposition
and wisdom in His work,
which are unreachable by man.
Those who call themselves Christ
yet cannot do the work of God
are frauds.
Christ is not merely
the manifestation of God on earth,
but the particular flesh
assumed by God,
as He carries out,
completes His work among man.
Christ is not merely
the manifestation of God on earth,
but instead,
the particular flesh assumed by God,
as He carries out,
completes His work among man.

Why is it said that God’s two incarnations complete the significance of the incarnation?

Bible Verses for Reference:
“So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and to them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin to salvation” (Heb 9:28).
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God” (Jhn 1:1).
Jesus,grace,gospel,Bible,Holy Spirit

Relevant Words of God:
The first incarnation was to redeem man from sin through the flesh of Jesus, that is, He saved man from the cross, but the corrupt satanic disposition still remained within man. The second incarnation is no longer to serve as a sin offering but to fully save those who were redeemed from sin. This is done so that those forgiven can be delivered from their sins and be fully made clean, and attain a change in disposition, thereby breaking free of Satan’s influence of darkness and returning before the throne of God. Only in this way can man be fully sanctified. God began the work of salvation in the Age of Grace after the Age of Law had come to an end. It is not until the last days, when God has fully purified mankind by doing the work of judgment and chastisement of man for rebelliousness, will God conclude His work of salvation and enter into rest. Therefore, in the three stages of work, only twice did God become flesh to carry out His work among man Himself. That is because only one in the three stages of work is to lead man in their lives, while the other two are the work of salvation. Only if God becomes flesh can He live alongside man, experience the suffering of the world, and live in an ordinary flesh. Only in this way can He supply man of His creation with the practical word that they need. Man receives full salvation from God because of God incarnate, not directly from their prayers to heaven. For man is fleshly; man is unable to see the Spirit of God and much less able to approach Him. All that man can associate with is God’s incarnate flesh; only through Him can man understand all the words and all the truths, and receive full salvation. The second incarnation is sufficient to get rid of the sins of man and fully purify man. Hence, the second incarnation will bring to a close all the work of God in the flesh and complete the significance of God’s incarnation.

Enlightenment From a Story of Solomon—Two Flower Baskets

  wisdom of Solomon, Enlightenment From Two Flower Baskets, story of solomon
grace,gospel,Bible,Holy Spirit,kingdom

 During my free time, I read a story about Solomon from the internet. A king from a neighboring country gave, as a present, two uncommon and rare flower baskets to Solomon. The flowers of one of the flower baskets were real and the flowers of the other basket were fake. However, the flowers of both baskets looked extremely similar. There was almost no way to distinguish the real flowers from the fake flowers just by looking at their appearance. The state official from the neighboring country that delivered the flower baskets had heard of Solomon’s wisdom. So, he asked Solomon to distinguish between the real flowers and the fake flowers. Solomon sent some people to bring the two flower baskets to his garden. Nobody understood what Solomon’s intentions were. Solomon asked everyone to gather at the garden and there they understood why he brought the two baskets into the garden. The real flowers had attracted many bees to them while the fake flowers did not have any.

How Do You Have a Relationship With God? 4 Ways

By Jin Qiu

Brothers and Sisters of Find the Shepherd:

  I’m a Christian. Since I believed in the Lord, I have been enjoying the Lord’s grace and blessings, but recently I couldn’t feel the Lord’s presence. I didn’t feel enlightened when reading the Bible nor moved through prayer. When encountering things, I couldn’t act according to the Lord’s words. Losing my former faith and love, I felt confused and worried. What should I do to resolve my problem?
truth,Judgment,salvation,God's word,God’s family

Sincerely yours,
Zhao Xun

Brother Zhao Xun:

  I understand how you feel. I had the same problem as you in the past. Later, through reading some spiritual books, I gained some light and enlightenment and understood some things. Your situation is the consequence of your losing the work of the Holy Spirit. If you want to recover the work of the Holy Spirit, you must establish a proper relationship with God. There are four ways for you to achieve that.

A Hymn of God's Word "God's Realness and Loveliness" | The Church of Almighty God


“For Adam and Eve, the Lord God made coats of skins, and clothed them.”
What we can see from this image is that God appears in the role
of the parent of Adam and Eve.
Ah … ah … ah … ah …

I
God made Adam and Eve, taking them as His companions.
As their only family, He looked after their life,
as well as took care of all, all their basic necessities.
God appears in the role of the parent, the parent of Adam and Eve.
God made Adam and Eve, taking them as His companions.
As their only family, He looked after their life,
as well as took care of all, all their basic necessities.
God appears in the role of the parent, the parent of Adam and Eve,
as the parent of Adam and Eve.
In this work God does, in this work God does,
man is unable to see how lofty God is, or His paramount supremacy.
Nor can they see Him shrouded in mystery, or His wrath and majesty.
Everything they can see is the love of God and His humility.
And they see His concern for man as well as His duty and care toward man.

Jan. 31, 2018 Super Blue Blood Moon and Lunar Eclipse


Impression after watching:
Let God's word be the guide of our life. Only in God's word can we find the value of the life and the meaning of human life. Four Blood Moons have appeared. Looking at the world, more and more disasters occur. Our humans' life is so fragile and can't stand a single blow in front of disasters. I have to reflect: am I able to control my own fate? The One Who Holds Sovereignty Over Everything discloses the answer for us.


January 31 brings a lunar trifecta: the super blue blood Moon! Starting at 5:30 a.m. Eastern, NASA TV will offer a livestream of the Moon. This full moon is the third in a series of “supermoons,” when the Moon is closer to Earth in its orbit -- known as perigee -- and about 14 percent brighter than usual. It’s the second full moon of the month, commonly known as a “blue moon.” The super blue moon will pass through Earth’s shadow to give viewers in the right location a total lunar eclipse. While the Moon is in the Earth’s shadow it will take on a reddish tint, known as a “blood moon.”

How I Nearly Became a Foolish Virgin

Li Fang, China

  In the fall of 2002, Sister Zhao from my denomination, the Church of Truth, brought her niece, Sister Wang, to my home to tell me some great news that the Lord has come back. After a few days of reading the words of Almighty God and listening to the sister’s detailed fellowship, I understood that from the creation of the world until now God has performed three stages of work in order to save mankind. Other truths that I also came to know were God’s adoption of a different name during each stage of the work, the significance of God’s name for each age, and the mystery of God’s incarnation, etc. These truths really allowed me to open my eyes wide and see my fill. I said to myself: “It all sounds crystal clear, and Almighty God very probably is the returned Lord Jesus so I’d better make sure I grasp this chance and read more of Almighty God’s words.” Before leaving, Sister Wang left some books of God’s words for me. Whenever I had time during the day, I read God’s words. The more I read the more I loved reading them and the more I felt that they were the words of God. After three days I became anxious. I thought: “My son, who is also a believer, and many brothers and sisters in our church still don’t know this great news about the return of the Lord. I’d better hurry up and tell them.”

  The next day early in the morning I went to my son’s home. I said happily to him: “This is such a great book. You should read it as soon as possible.” My son glanced at me and asked: “What book? You seem pretty delighted. Just put it down there and I’ll take a look at it when I have time.” I thought that as all believers were looking forward to the Lord’s return my son would be happy to learn that the Lord has already returned.
