God’s Words Are the Forever Unchanging Truth
God’s words are the forever unchanging truth. God is the supply of life for man
and the only guide for mankind.
The worth and meaning of God’s words
are not determined by whether they are recognized or accepted by mankind,
but by the substance of the words themselves.
Even if not a single person on this earth can receive God’s words,
the value of His words and their help to mankind
are inestimable to any man.
Therefore, when faced with the many people
who rebel against, refute,
or are utterly contemptuous of God’s words,
His stance is only this:
Let time and facts be God’s witness
and show that His words are the truth, the way, and the life.
Let them show that all He has said is right,
that it is that which man should be furnished with and, moreover, that which man should accept.

After the Lord Jesus was baptized in the Jordan River, there was a voice from heaven, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased” (Matthew 3:17). Isn’t the Lord Jesus God’s beloved Son? Why is it said He Is God Himself? In fact, there is a mystery within. Almighty God, Christ of the last days, has come and expressed words, revealing this mystery.
Almighty God says, “There are still those who say, ‘Did not God expressly state that Jesus was His beloved Son?’ Jesus is the beloved Son of God, in whom He is well pleased—this was certainly spoken by God Himself. That was God bearing witness to Himself, but merely from a different perspective, that of the Spirit in heaven bearing witness to His own incarnation. Jesus is His incarnation, not His Son in heaven. Do you understand? Do not the words of Jesus, ‘I am in the Father, and the Father in Me,’ indicate that They are one Spirit? And is it not because of the incarnation that They were separated between heaven and earth? In reality, They are still one; no matter what, it is simply God bearing witness to Himself. ”

Sometimes, because we are busy with studies or work, we don’t pay attention to praying to God or we just say a few words to God half-heartedly, going through the motions in prayer. This causes us to develop an abnormal state. So, how should we pray to God?
The Lord Jesus said: “When the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeks such to worship Him” (John 4:23). “But you, when you pray, enter into your closet, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father which is in secret” (Matthew 6:6).

When it comes to today’s world, lots of people say: “Today’s world is becoming more and more dark and evil. There are no proper relationships or genuine love between people. For the sake of money and interests, men engage in intrigue and even kill each other; selling bodies, toying with fleshly desires and betraying marriage are common occurrences; gambling, stealing, murdering, swindling and cheating occur frequently….” We can’t help but lament: Why is the world so dark and evil?
It says in the Bible: “The whole world lies in wickedness” (1 John 5:19).
God says: “Adam and Eve created by God in the beginning were holy people, which is to say, whilst in the Garden of Eden they were holy, untainted with filth. They were also faithful to Jehovah, and knew nothing of the betrayal of Jehovah. This is because they were without the disturbance of the influence of Satan, were without Satan’s poison, and were the purest of all mankind. They lived in the Garden of Eden, undefiled by any filth, unpossessed by the flesh, and in reverence of Jehovah. Later, when they were tempted by Satan, they had the poison of the serpent, and the desire to betray Jehovah, and they lived under the influence of Satan. … After being corrupted by Satan, man became a beast. His thoughts were filled with evil and filth, without good or holiness. Is this not Satan?”

God’s words say: “When praying, you must have a heart that is quiet before God, and you must have a sincere heart. You are truly communing and praying with God—you must not deceive God using nice-sounding words. Prayer should center upon that which God wishes to accomplish right now. Ask God to grant you greater enlightenment and illumination, bring your actual states and your troubles into His presence when you pray, including the resolution that you made before God. Prayer is not about following procedure; it is about seeking God with a sincere heart. Ask that God protect your heart, so that your heart may often be quiet before Him; that in the environment in which He has placed you, you would know yourself, despise yourself, and forsake yourself, thus allowing you to have a proper relationship with God and truly become someone who loves God” (“Concerning the Practice of Prayer”).

The Prophecy of the Lord’s Return Has Been Fulfilled: Have You Welcomed the Lord?
When the Lord Jesus prophesied His return, He said, “Then said he to them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven” (Luke 21:10-11).

Almighty God says, “When you have finished reading this book, when you have experienced each step of the work of God incarnate in the Age of Kingdom, you will feel that the hopes of many years have finally been realized. You will feel that only now have you truly seen God face-to-face; only now have you gazed upon the face of God, heard the personal utterance of God, appreciated the wisdom of God’s work, and truly sensed how real and almighty God is. You will sense that you have gained many things that people of times past have never seen or possessed. At this time, you will clearly know what it is to believe in God, and what it is to be after God’s heart. Of course, if you cling to views of the past, and reject or deny the fact of the second incarnation of God, then you shall remain empty-handed and acquire nothing, and ultimately be guilty of opposing God. Those who obey the truth and submit to the work of God shall come under the name of the second incarnate God—the Almighty. They will be able to accept the personal guidance of God, and shall acquire more and higher truth and receive the real human life.

The Lord Jesus said: “Our Father which are in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come, Your will be done in earth, as it is in heaven” (Matthew 6:9–10). “The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of His Christ; and He shall reign for ever and ever” (Revelation 11:15). “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself shall be with them, and be their God” (Revelation 21:3). The Lord Jesus clearly told us that God’s kingdom is on the earth, not in heaven, and that His will shall be done on earth as it is in heaven. If God’s kingdom is in heaven and we’ll be raptured up there when the Lord returns as we think, then wouldn’t these words of God be in vain?
Almighty God says: “When humanity enters into rest, it means that man has become a true creation; humanity will worship God from upon the earth and have normal human lives. People will no longer be disobedient to God or resist God; they will return to the original life of Adam and Eve. These are the respective lives and destinations of God and humanity after they enter into rest.

When you encounter difficulties in life, do you often entreat and pray to the Lord? For example, when you get sick, you pray to the Lord, asking Him to take your sickness away; when you can’t find a job, you ask the Lord to open a way out for you; when seeing others struck by natural disasters or man-made calamities, you ask the Lord to protect yourself. However, when such prayers are not answered by God and you can’t feel peace and joy in your heart, do you feel confused, thinking: “I have prayed to and entreated the Lord, so why has the Lord not answered my prayers? Could it be that praying like this is not approved by God?”
