The Church of Almighty God | Exactly what work will Jesus do when He returns?

the Bible, Jesus Christ, God's word
the Church of Almighty God

the Church of Almighty GodExactly what work will Jesus do when He returns?

The Answer from God’s Word:
Though Jesus did much work among man, He only completed the redemption of all mankind and became man’s sin offering, and did not rid man of all his corrupt disposition. Fully saving man from the influence of Satan not only required Jesus to take on the sins of man as the sin offering, but also required God to do greater work to completely rid man of his disposition, which has been corrupted by Satan. And so, after man was forgiven his sins, God has returned to flesh to lead man into the new age, and begun the work of chastisement and judgment, and this work has brought man into a higher realm. All those who submit under His dominion shall enjoy higher truth and receive greater blessings. They shall truly live in the light, and shall gain the truth, the way, and the life.

    The Church of Almighty God | When God became flesh in the Age of Grace it was in the image of a Jewish man, so why has God of the last days appeared as an Asian person?

The Answer from God’s Word:
God is the greatest in the entire universe, so could He fully explain Himself using the image of a flesh? God puts on the flesh in order to do a stage of His work. There is no significance to the image of the flesh, and it bears no relation to the passing of ages, and has nothing to do with God’s disposition. Why did Jesus not allow the image of Him to remain? Why did He not let man paint His image, so that it could be passed on to later generations? Why did He not allow people to acknowledge that His image was the image of God? … He becomes flesh only so that the Spirit can have somewhere appropriate to reside when doing His work, so that He can achieve His work in the flesh—so that people can see His work, come into contact with His disposition, hear His words, and know the wonder of His work. His name represents His disposition, His work represents His identity, but He has never said that His appearance in the flesh represents His image; that is merely a notion of man.

Why has God been incarnated as a female in the last days? What is the significance of this?

The Church of Almighty God | Why has God been incarnated as a female in the last days? What is the significance of this?

The Answer from God’s Word:
Each stage of work done by God has a real significance. When Jesus arrived, He was male, and this time He is female. From this, you can see that God created both male and female for His work and with Him there is no distinction of gender. When His Spirit arrives, He can take on any flesh at will and the flesh represents Him. Be it male or female, both represent God as long as it is His incarnate flesh. If Jesus arrived and appeared as a female, in other words, if an infant girl, not a boy, was to be conceived by the Holy Spirit, that stage of work would have been completed all the same. If so, this stage of work would have to be completed instead by a male and the work would then be completed all the same.

The Church of Almighty God | Why does the Lord’s return involve incarnation—descending in secret—as well as publicly descending from the clouds?

the Church of Almighty God

Why does the Lord’s return involve incarnation—descending in secret—as well as publicly descending from the clouds?

The Answer from God’s Word:
God is incarnated in the Chinese mainland, what the compatriots in Hong Kong and Taiwan call the inland. When God came from above to the earth, no one in heaven and earth knew about it, for this is the true meaning of God returning in a concealed fashion. He has been in the flesh working and living for a long time, yet no one has known about it. Even to this day, no one recognizes it. Perhaps this will remain an eternal riddle. God’s coming into flesh this time is not something anyone is able to be aware of. No matter how large-scale and powerful the Spirit’s work, God always stays composed, never giving Himself away. One can say that it is as if this stage of His work is taking place in the heavenly realm. Even though it is perfectly obvious to everyone, no one recognizes it.

The Church of Almighty God
| The Lord Jesus said that He will return, and what will be the manner of His return?


The Answer from God’s Word:
For several thousand years, man has longed to be able to witness the arrival of the Savior. Man has longed to behold Jesus the Savior on a white cloud as He descends, in person, among those who have pined and yearned for Him for thousands of years. Man has longed for the Savior to return and be reunited with the people, that is, for Jesus the Savior to come back to the people from whom He has been apart for thousands of years. And man hopes that He will once again carry out the work of redemption that He did among the Jews, will be compassionate and loving toward man, will forgive the sins of man, bear the sins of man, and even bear all of man’s transgressions and deliver man from sin. They long for Jesus the Savior to be the same as before—a Savior who is lovable, amiable and venerable, who is never wrathful toward man, and who never reproaches man. This Savior forgives and bears all of man’s sins, and even dies upon the cross for man once more. Since Jesus departed, the disciples who followed Him, and all of the saints who were saved thanks to His name, have been desperately pining for Him and awaiting Him. All those who were saved by the grace of Jesus Christ during the Age of Grace have been longing for that joyful day during the last days, when Jesus the Savior arrives on a white cloud and appears among man.

The Church of Almighty God | If Lord Has Come in Secret, Will You Seek and Investigate?

If Lord Has Come in Secret, Will You Seek and Investigate?


By Su Xing
    In the cool moonlight, the autumn night is cold. A crescent moon hangs in the sky; now and then, the floating clouds swim across it. When the moon is blocked out, there appears darkness, and then it will unyieldingly struggle from the cloud, shining and dispelling darkness.
    In the moonlight, the village was especially peaceful. Lin Muran was sitting in the chair. Above his head, an incandescent bulb hung there, the light shining on his grey hair. He wrinkled his forehead and his face was covered with sadness. On the desk a Bible lay open, whose torn and yellowed pages were curled. Beside the book, there was a small notebook filled with many words. “Alas!” Lin Muran heaved a long sigh, got to his feet and walked up and down in the room.

The Origin and Development of The Church of Almighty God

The Origin and Development of The Church of Almighty God

In the Age of Grace, the Lord Jesus promised to His followers, “And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you to myself; that where I am, there you may be also” (Jhn 14:3). He also prophesied, “For as the lightning comes out of the east, and shines even to the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be” (Mat 24:27). In the last days, as promised and foretold by Himself, God has again become flesh and descended to the East of the world—China—to do the work of judgment, chastisement, conquest, and salvation using the word, on the foundation of the redemption work of the Lord Jesus.

The Church of Almighty God | The Word of God | "What Do You Know of Faith?" | What Is True Faith in God?

The Word of God | "What Do You Know of Faith?" | What Is True Faith in God?


Introduction

Almighty God says, "My deeds are greater in number than the grains of sand on the beaches, and My wisdom greater than that of all those sons of Solomon, yet men merely think of Me as a physician of little account and an unknown teacher of man! How many believe in Me only so I would heal them? How many believe in Me only so I would use My powers to drive unclean spirits out of their bodies? And how many believe in Me simply to receive peace and joy from Me? How many believe in Me only to demand from Me more material wealth, and how many believe in Me just to spend this life in safety and to be safe and sound in the world to come? How many believe in Me only to avoid the suffering of hell and to receive the blessings of heaven? How many believe in Me only for temporary comfort but do not seek to gain anything in the world to come?"

The Church of Almighty God | Some people, in their study of the Lord Jesus’ return, only base their studies on the Bible’s prophecies, but they do not seek to listen to God’s voice. What is the problem with this practice?

the Church of Almighty God, the truth, Lord Jesus has returned
Lord Jesus has returned
The Answer from God’s Word:
“First, let us not verify each statement. Instead, let us look at how the Holy Spirit works. Let us compare against the truth to see whether the path we walk is in line with the work of the Holy Spirit, and use the work of the Holy Spirit to check whether such path is correct. As for whether this statement or that statement has come to pass, we humans should not interfere. It is better for us to instead speak of the work of the Holy Spirit and the latest work that God is doing now. The Bible comprises the words of God told by the prophets and the words written by the men God used at the time; only God Himself can explain those words, only the Holy Spirit can make known the meaning of those words, and only God Himself can break the seven seals and open the scroll.

the Bible
The Answer from God’s Word:
This is because the Bible followed several thousand years of human history and people all treat it like God to the point that people in the last days replace God with the Bible. This is something that God really hates. So in His spare time, He had to clarify the inside story and the origin of the Bible. Otherwise, the Bible would still be able to replace God’s place in people’s hearts and they could condemn and measure God’s actions based on the words in the Bible.

The Church of Almighty God | How did the Bible take shape? What type of book is the Bible

The Church of Almighty God | How did the Bible take shape? What type of book is the Bible

the Church of Almighty God, the bible, God's word
the Bible

The Answer from God’s Word:
The things recorded in the Old Testament are Jehovah’s work in Israel, and that which is recorded in the New Testament is the work of Jesus during the Age of Grace; they document the work done by God in two different ages. The Old Testament documents the work of God during the Age of Law, and thus the Old Testament is a historical book, while the New Testament is the product of the work of the Age of Grace. When the new work began, these books became out of date—and thus, the New Testament is also a historical book. Of course, the New Testament is not as systematic as the Old Testament, nor does it record as many things.

The Church of Almighty God | There are many people that believe that despite the Bible being written by man, all of the words come from the Holy Spirit and are the words of God. Is this correct?

The Answer from God’s Word:
Today, people believe the Bible is God, and that God is the Bible. So, too, do they believe that all the words of the Bible were the only words God spoke, and that they were all said by God. Those who believe in God even think that although all of the sixty-six books of the Old and New Testament were written by people, they were all given by inspiration of God, and a record of the utterances of the Holy Spirit. This is the erroneous interpretation of people, and it does not completely accord with the facts.

That God has become flesh shakes the religious world, upsets the religious order, and stirs up the souls of all who long for God's appearance. Who does not marvel at this? Who does not long to see God? God has spent years among man, but man is simply unaware of this. Today, God Himself has appeared to renew His old love with man.

What is the reason behind the religious community’s frantic resistance against and effort to condemn God’s new work in each age? What is the root?

The Church of Almighty God | What is the reason behind the religious community’s frantic resistance against and effort to condemn God’s new work in each age? What is the root?

the Church, the Church of Almighty God,
Lord Jesus

The Answer from God’s Word:
The reason that man opposes God stems, on the one hand, from the corrupt disposition of man, and on the other hand, from ignorance of God and lack of understanding of the principles of God’s work and His will toward man. These two aspects merge into a history of man’s resistance to God. Novices in the faith oppose God because such opposition lies within their nature, while the opposition against God of those with many years in the faith results from their ignorance of God, in addition to their corrupt disposition.

The Answer from God’s Word:
My entire management plan, which spans six thousand years, consists of three phases, or three ages: first, the Age of Law; second, the Age of Grace (which is also the Age of Redemption); and finally, the Age of Kingdom. My work in these three ages differs according to the nature of each age, but at each stage it accords with man’s needs—or rather, it varies according to the tricks that Satan employs in My war against it.

Testimonies | Almighty God’s Work Has Caused Us to Walk the Same Path as Husband and Wife


Testimonies | Almighty God’s Work Has Caused Us to Walk the Same Path as Husband and Wife


Liu Xue, Henan Province
    In 1991, since we were enduring the hardships of family conflict, my husband and I believed in the Lord Jesus together. From then on, we no longer quarreled. We read the Bible and attended gatherings together very zealously. Not long afterward, my husband left the Three-Self Church and switched over to the Stream of Recovery. In regards to the matter of my husband switching denominations, I did not mind. I believed that as long as we believed in one God, it did not matter which denomination we belonged to.

How does one actually confirm that Almighty God is the returned Jesus?

The Church of Almighty GodHow does one actually confirm that Almighty God is the returned Jesus?

the name of God, the Truth
the Church of Almighty God

The Answer from God’s Word:
First, He is able to open up a new age; second, He is able to supply the life of man and show man the way to follow. This is sufficient to establish that He is God Himself. At the very least, the work He does can fully represent the Spirit of God, and from such work it can be seen that the Spirit of God is within Him. As the work done by the incarnate God was mainly to usher in a new age, lead new work, and open up new circumstances, these few conditions alone are sufficient to establish that He is God Himself.

The Church of Almighty God | Testimony of Experiences of the CCP’s Brutal Persecution

Testimony of Experiences of the CCP’s Brutal Persecution Given by Christian Li Chuansong



    Her faith in the Lord Jesus began in 1987, and she accepted the kingdom gospel of Almighty God in 1999. While preaching the gospel in 2005, she was arrested by the Chinese police. During her incarceration, she was tortured with various means including whipping, handcuffs with teeth, doing half squats, punches, kicks, etc. As a result, she was completely unable to take care of herself. Eventually, it was God’s words that gave her the faith to survive …
