Who Is a Truly Righteous Man in God’s Eyes?

the kingdom of heaven, God’s words, God’s will, the last days,God’s work

By Chengshi

The Lord Jesus said, “Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father” (Matthew 13:43). These words tell us that only righteous man can enter God’s kingdom, and enjoy the blessings of the heavenly kingdom. So what kind of people are righteous? Most Christians reckon that as long as we accept the Lord Jesus’ salvation, persistently attend meetings, often pray and read the Bible, show others tolerance, patience and love, can suffer, work, trek and expend, we will then be righteous man in God’s eyes and be people after God’s heart. Is this view right? Does it accord with the Lord’s will? It’s necessary to fellowship about this topic, because only if we correctly understand the standard for being righteous man can we seek in accordance with God’s requirements and enter the kingdom of heaven in the end. Let’s fellowship about this issue.

My impression:

I saw the poster of large-scale choir performance on Facebook. A light from sky flashes to the earth.  Brothers and sisters in tidy moves, stately and powerful scene. On the poster are the words "Oh, Zion! Raise your triumphant banner to celebrate Me! Sing your triumphant song of victory and spread My holy name! All things on earth!" Looking forward to Kingdom Descends on the World, magnificent choir performance, to be released soon. Sharing the great joy with you all.

Christian Hymn | I Live in the Presence of God

Christian Hymn, God's grace, truth, God's words,  judgment

   

Christian Hymn | I Live in the Presence of God


I

I live in the presence of God.
Looking up to Him,
in reliance I believe.
Each person and thing we see,
orchestrated by the hands of God.
I live in the presence of God,
yes, I live in the presence of God!
I live in the presence of God,
reading His word each day,
thinking on the truth that lies within
in light of my real state.
Only in reflection
can I see my true colors.
Arrogant, selfish, and cunning,
not like a human should be.
All this has made me like Satan.
I abhor my corruption,
bow down to judgment,
and seek to change my disposition.
God's words lead me to the right path.
I live in the presence of God,
search for His will in all things.
The less conformed to man's thoughts,
the more truth to be found.
I live in the presence of God,
yes, I live in the presence of God!

2019 Christian Worship Song | "The Life of Man Is Entirely Under God’s Sovereignty" (Lyrics)

2019 Christian Worship Song | "The Life of Man Is Entirely Under God’s Sovereignty" (Lyrics)


1
If a person only believes in fate
but they are unable to know,
if a person only believes in fate
but they are unable to recognize,
if a person only believes in fate
but they are unable to submit,
unable to accept the Creator’s
sovereignty over man’s fate,
their life would be a tragedy,
their life would be lived in vain,
their life would be a void,
they can’t submit to His dominion,
they can’t become a created being
in the truest sense of the phrase,
and enjoy the Creator’s approval,
enjoy it through the days.
A person who knows God’s sovereignty,
they should be in an active state.
A person who sees God’s sovereignty,
they should not be in a passive state.
While accepting all things are fated,
they’ve a right definition of fate:
The life of man is entirely
under God’s sovereignty.

2019 Gospel Hymn "Those Who Don't Accept the Truth Aren't Fit for Salvation" | Exhortation of God

Gospel Song | "Those Who Don't Accept the Truth Aren't Fit for Salvation" 


I
In hearing truth and word of life,
you may think only one word aligns
out of thousands of these words
with your thoughts and with the Bible, the Bible.
Seek in that 10,000th of words.
God advises humbleness,
to not be over-confident, to not exalt yourself.
Aren’t you unfit for God’s salvation
if you can’t accept truth clearly spoken?
Aren’t you one who lacks the fortune
to return before God at His throne,
to return before God at His throne?

How to Handle Bible Prophecy So as Not to Miss the Lord’s Return

flesh, God’s salvation, the Bible, Lord Jesus, the last days

By Qianhe

Prophecies are about things that haven’t happened yet, that God has already told us about. Some of them are signs that He gave to prophets so that they would write about them, such as in the books of Isaiah and Daniel. Some of them were told to people directly by God in the flesh, like the Lord Jesus’ prophecies about the last days. How a prophecy is actually fulfilled isn’t something that we as humans can fathom. What I want to express here is that we all know that prophecies aren’t things that people can full understand, but many people still try to rely on their own thinking and imaginations in looking at biblical prophecies. They give sermons without any restraint based on the literal meanings of prophecies. This is a really serious issue. Not only can this bring harm to others, but it can also mislead them so that they may miss out on God’s salvation or even be resistant to God.

CCP collects information on CAG members who fled China, uses agents and online propaganda to harass them. Anyone opposing the persecution deemed hostile to China.


The Church of Almighty God (CAG) is the largest Chinese Christian new religious movement, which, due to its rapid growth, has been regarded as a threat to the CCP. It was included in the list of the xie jiao in 1995 and has become the most targeted and heavily persecuted religious movements in China ever since. Under the CCP’s ruthless oppression, often accompanied by torture and long-term imprisonment, some CAG members have been forced to flee overseas, but the authorities haven’t given up on persecuting them.
