2019 English Christian Hymn With Lyrics | "Are You One Who Seeks to Be Perfected by God?"

2019 English Christian Hymn With Lyrics | "Are You One Who Seeks to Be Perfected by God?"

Pre-verse

If you are one of the people

striving to be made perfect,

you’ll have borne testimony,

and you are going to say:

Verse 1

“Through each and every step

of what God is doing,

I have accepted this work

of chastisement and judgment.

Though I have suffered a lot,

I have gained God’s own work,

I have known His righteousness

and how He makes man perfect.

2019 Christian Worship Hymn With Lyrics | "No One Can Fathom God’s Authority and Power"

Christian Praise and Worship Song | "No One Can Fathom God’s Authority and Power"

Once the words of God are uttered, His authority takes command

and what He has promised becomes true step by step.

Changes start to happen in everything around.

These are the miracles out of the Creator’s hands.

It’s like when spring comes: grass turns green, flowers bloom,

buds sprout, and birds sing; people fill the fields.

God’s authority and power, unconstrained by time, 

by place, person, and matter, nor by anything. 

His authority and power, man cannot imagine.

They feel it hard to fathom or fully understand.

2019 English Christian Hymn With Lyrics | "God Long Ago Determined Man's Fate"

Verse 1

As far as fate is concerned, everyone is independent.

As far as fate is concerned, everyone has his or her own fate.

So no one’s parents can stave off one’s fate in life

or exert the slightest influence on the role one plays.

Chorus

Nothing except the predestination of the Creator

has a bearing on a person’s fate.

No one can control what kind of future one will have,

predetermined long before, not even parents have a say.

God’s name may change, but His essence will never change

 God’s name may change, but His essence will never change

    Relevant Words of God:

    There are those who say that God is immutable. That is correct, but it refers to the immutability of God’s disposition and His substance. Changes in His name and work do not prove that His substance has altered; in other words, God will always be God, and this will never change. If you say that the work of God is unchanging, then would He be able to finish His six-thousand-year plan of management? You only know that God is forever unchanging, but do you know that God is always new and never old? If the work of God is unchanging, then could He have led mankind all the way to the present day? If God is immutable, then why is it that He has already done the work of two ages? His work never ceases to move forward, which is to say that His disposition is gradually revealed to man, and what is revealed is His inherent disposition. In the beginning, God’s disposition was hidden from man, He never openly revealed His disposition to man, and man simply had no knowledge of Him. Because of this, He uses His work to gradually reveal His disposition to man, but working in this way does not mean that God’s disposition changes in every age. It is not the case that God’s disposition is constantly changing because His will is always changing. Rather, it is that, because the ages of His work are different, God takes His inherent disposition in its entirety and, step by step, reveals it to man, so that man may be able to know Him. But this is by no means proof that God originally has no particular disposition or that His disposition has gradually changed with the passing of the ages—such an understanding would be erroneous. God reveals to man His inherent and particular disposition—what He is—according to the passing of the ages; the work of a single age cannot express the entire disposition of God. And so, the words “God is always new and never old” refer to His work, and the words “God is immutable” to what God inherently has and is. Regardless, you cannot make the work of six thousand years hinge upon a single point, or circumscribe it with dead words. Such is the stupidity of man. God is not as simple as man imagines, and His work cannot linger in any one age. Jehovah, for example, cannot always stand for the name of God; God can also do His work under the name of Jesus. This is a sign that God’s work is always moving in a forward progression.

The relationship between each stage of God’s work and His name

    (1) The significance of God taking the name Jehovah in the Age of Law

    Bible Verses for Reference:

    “And God said moreover to Moses, Thus shall you say to the children of Israel, Jehovah, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you: this is My name for ever, and this is My memorial to all generations” (Exo 3:15).

    Relevant Words of God:

    “Jehovah” is the name that I took during My work in Israel, and it means the God of the Israelites (God’s chosen people) who can take pity on man, curse man, and guide the life of man. It means the God who possesses great power and is full of wisdom. … That is to say, only Jehovah is the God of the chosen people of Israel, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, the God of Jacob, the God of Moses, and the God of all the people of Israel. And so in the current age, all the Israelites apart from the tribe of Judah worship Jehovah. They make sacrifices to Him on the altar, and serve Him wearing priests’ robes in the temple. What they hope for is the reappearance of Jehovah. … The name Jehovah is a particular name for the people of Israel who lived under the law. In each age and each stage of work, My name is not baseless, but holds representative significance: Each name represents one age. “Jehovah” represents the Age of Law, and is the honorific for the God worshiped by the people of Israel.

The Savior’s Come | What Is Wise About the Wise Virgins?

The Lord Jesus said, “And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom comes; go you out to meet him” (Matthew 25:6). Revelation prophesied, “Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me” (Revelation 3:20). This is the true meaning of rapture at the coming of the Lord. If you want to greet the second coming of the Lord, it is principally important to be able to hear His voice. When God works and expresses His word, the wise virgins will be able to recognize His voice and thus go to the marriage feast of the Lamb and be raptured before the throne.

What is the nature of the problem of man not knowing the significance of God’s name or accepting His new name?

What is the nature of the problem of man not knowing the significance of God’s name or accepting His new name?

    Relevant Words of God:

    In each period of time, God will begin new work, and in each period, there will be a new beginning among man. If man only abides by the truths that “Jehovah is God” and “Jesus is Christ,” which are truths that only apply to a single age, then man will never keep up with the work of the Holy Spirit, and will forever be incapable of gaining the work of the Holy Spirit. Regardless of how God works, man follows without the slightest doubt, and he follows closely. In this way, how could man be eliminated by the Holy Spirit? Regardless of what God does, as long as man is certain that it is the work of the Holy Spirit, and cooperates in the work of the Holy Spirit without any misgivings, and tries to meet the requirements of God, then how could he be punished? The work of God has never ceased, His footsteps have never halted, and prior to the completion of His work of management, He has always been busy, and never stops. But man is different: Having gained but a modicum of the Holy Spirit’s work, he treats it as if it will never change; having gained a little knowledge, he does not go forth to follow the footsteps of God’s newer work; having seen but a bit of God’s work, he immediately prescribes God as a particular wooden figure, and believes that God will always remain in this form that he sees before him, that it was like this in the past and will always be thus in the future; having gained but a superficial knowledge, man is so proud that he forgets himself and begins to wantonly proclaim the disposition and being of God that simply do not exist; and having become certain about one stage of the Holy Spirit’s work, no matter what kind of person it is that proclaims the new work of God, man does not accept it. These are people who cannot accept the new work of the Holy Spirit; they are too conservative, and incapable of accepting new things. Such people are those who believe in God but also reject God. Man believes that the Israelites were wrong to “only believe in Jehovah and not believe in Jesus,” yet the majority of people act out a role in which they “only believe in Jehovah and reject Jesus” and “long for the return of the Messiah, but oppose the Messiah who is called Jesus.” No wonder, then, that people still live under the domain of Satan after accepting one stage of the work of the Holy Spirit, and still do not receive God’s blessings. Is this not the result of man’s rebelliousness? … Even though they have the “utmost loyalty” toward the words spoken by God, their words and actions still feel so disgusting because they oppose the work of the Holy Spirit, and commit deceit and evil. Those who do not follow to the very end, who do not keep up with the work of the Holy Spirit, and who only cleave to the old work have not only failed to achieve loyalty to God, but on the contrary, have become those who oppose God, have become those who are rejected by the new age, and who will be punished. Are there any more pitiable than them?

“I Refused to Go to Seoul”: One Relative Exposes the CCP’s Plot

On July 22, coerced or manipulated relatives of The Church of Almighty God refugees will stage false “spontaneous demonstrations” in Korea. But some relatives refused to go.

Bitter Winter is following closely the CCP’s plot to prevent refugees from The Church of Almighty God (CAG) from obtaining asylum in Korea and have them deported back to China. As we reported, the CCP is continuing to harass China-based relatives of the CAG refugees who live in South Korea—coercing, inciting, and luring them to travel to South Korea to take part in false “spontaneous demonstrations” and protests, in an effort to have the CAG refugees arrested and sent to China.
