  • Good evening, everyone.

  • Welcome to the interview dialogue of The Trumpet of Truth.

  • I'm your host Jane.

  • Since Almighty God started His end-time work in China,

  • the words of Almighty God have been testified and spread wider and wider.

  • Now, God's work in the last days has already been extended overseas.

  • Almighty God's Word has also been translated into many languages and published online.

  • More and more people who truly believe in God, thirst for and seek the truth

  • are investigating Almighty God's work.

  • Many people want to know more about The Church of Almighty God

  • and God's new work in the last days.

  • So today we invite two American Christians from The Church of Almighty God

  • to share with us their stories,

  • and what they have experienced in The Church of Almighty God.

  • They are our special guestsTina and her husband Charlie.

  • Hi Tina, Charlie.

  • Hi Jane.

  • Nice to meet you.

  • Nice to be here.

  • Welcome to our studio.

  • Thank you for having us.

  • Which part of the U.S. are you from?

  • Golden Valley, Arizona.

  • Yes, between Laughlin and Kingman. And it's a small town.

  • Kingman's the bigger city.

  • But, we're like in a small town.

  • There's probably 35,000 people.

  • And Arizona is known for its sunsets and sunrises.

  • We have some beautiful sunsets and sunrises there.

  • Are there many Christians there?

  • There's quite a few Christians there.

  • There's a lot of different small Churches.

  • Baptists, Methodists, Lutheran.

  • Were you a Christian before you accepted God's end-time work?

  • Yes.

  • I've always been a Christian.

  • I've always believed in God since I was a young child. So, yes.

  • So, you read the Bible often and pray to God everyday?

  • Um ... Yes,

  • I read the Bible starting probably in my early twenties on my own.

  • And it progressed on through the years.

  • So yeah, I read a lot of the Bible.

  • And, how about your family?

  • How many children do you have?

  • We have four children. Two older girls. One 24 and one 19.

  • The 24-year-old, her name is Brittney.

  • She works in the medical field.

  • My 19-year-old, her name is Gabrielle.

  • She works in the dentistry field.

  • And then we have two boys, 12, Doniphan and John.

  • They're still in middle school, very active in sports.

  • And they also believe in God.

  • We're raising them with God also.

  • Wonderful. Blessed family.

  • Thank you.

  • Thank God.

  • We actually fellowship as a family on Sundays.

  • And the two younger boys, they fellowship with the youth group on Fridays.

  • Wonderful.

  • Yeah.

  • How did you come into contact with The Church of Almighty God?

  • Um … I actually came in contact with the Church, it was um

  • it's God's blessing actually, He directed me to the Church.

  • UmBack in 2016,

  • I started thinking about what life was really about,

  • the purpose of life, and what the meaning of life was.

  • Because of going through the motions of tradition

  • working, striving to make money, gaining possessions,

  • then the end result is always being death.

  • I thought there's gotta be more to life than this.

  • Life is very precious.

  • So, I started praying to God every day.

  • And I asked God to show me what His will was,

  • and what my purpose in life was to have meaning.

  • 'Cause I wanted to have meaning within my life,

  • I dedicated myself to praying every day.

  • And I saw a lot throughout the year about words,

  • how important words are,

  • that God's words are very very powerful.

  • He said beginning "Let there be light." And there was light. (see Gen 1:3)

  • So, God's words are very powerful.

  • And then I recognized I've read many times in the Bible, in John 1:1,

  • it says, "In the beginning was the Word,

  • and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."

  • So, Words are very important.

  • And I looked on Facebook a lot 'cause I wanted to find truth.

  • So, I'd punched in "truth" on Facebook.

  • And I've never seen anything different.

  • So, I joined some different Christian sites

  • just to see if I could find God, find the truth.

  • And I've never seen much difference.

  • It was all about

  • "give all your problems to God and God will solve everything."

  • It's kinda like:

  • Rely on God, just believe in Him, and rely on Him,

  • and He'll make the way for you.

  • So it was nothing different than what's been preached throughout time, history.

  • And then I recognized a different site on Facebook.

  • It was called "The Lord Jesus Has Already Returned."

  • And I started reading some of the stuff they were posting from there.

  • And it amazed me. It was a lot different.

  • It talked about God's judgment in the end times,

  • that it is here, how one really believes in God,

  • how you should believe in God,

  • and that God's words have been expressed,

  • and they've been brought down to the earth.

  • And it made me think, you know,

  • I was very interested in finding out more.

  • And one day there was a live video on from that site.

  • And I actually clicked on the live video.

  • And I wasn't on there very long and I got a message in my messenger box

  • from a sister from The Church of Almighty God.

  • And we started talking about my beliefs.

  • And she started telling me a little bit about God's end-time plan.

  • And it was very interesting.

  • I wanted to learn more, so I agreed to start fellowshiping.

  • And I can tell you it was the best decision of my entire life.

  • Amen.

  • Amen.

  • Yeah, your prayer's answered.

  • Oh yes.

  • Wonderful.

  • Yeah, I have met some people,

  • who are eagerly waiting for the Lord's return,

  • and have kept on praying for it.

  • And one day they saw a film or a video, or an article of Almighty God's word

  • that touched their heart.

  • And they realized their prayer's answered.

  • Yes.

  • And from then on

  • they started to truly believe, and accept God's end-time work.

  • Yes. It's something that we've never seen before.

  • Everybody believes that

  • just believing in Jesus, and asking for forgiveness for your sins,

  • we're saved.

  • But this seems to go a little bit beyond that,

  • of knowing how God's been among us managing us, trying to save us.

  • So, it goes a lot deeper than what I've learned searching on my own.

  • And then finding this, it was a blessing to find it.

  • So, how did you, in the end, become certain that it is God's work?

  • UmBecause it's a continuation of the Lord Jesus' work in the Age of Redemption.

  • Like I was saying,

  • forgiveness of sins, we sin during the day

  • and we ask for forgiveness of sins at night.

  • Well, the Age of Kingdom is here

  • and it's a purification process.

  • God is the beginning and the ending.

  • God is the only One that can end an age and open up a new age.

  • And we can see that from the Old Testament into the New Testament,

  • where God gave mankind laws in the Old Testament.

  • And in the New Testament

  • He was actually the sin offering for mankind, to redeem mankind of their sins.

  • So He ended the age, which is called the Age of Law of the Old Testament,

  • and the Age of Grace which is the New Testament.

  • He ended that age and opened up a new age.

  • And now, we've gone into the Age of Kingdom,

  • and the Age of Kingdom has opened up to where

  • God is holding us up to a higher standard of purifying us.

  • So we can be cleansed of our corruption

  • and actually know where the root of our corruption comes from.

  • So, it's amazing.

  • And God is the only One that can actually express the truth.

  • Mankind doesn't have truth.

  • They have opinions, they have notions,

  • they have imaginations.

  • But, who's to say who's right and who's wrong?

  • Now God, He expresses the truth,

  • He reveals everything about God:

  • God's disposition, God's substance.

  • He knows what's in man's heart and what's in man's mind.

  • No man could ever know that.

  • So, God has revealed all truths.

  • And, by revealing the truth and giving us one way to follow,

  • we can recognize how corrupt we are.

  • 'Cause when we see the truth, it's God's truth,

  • we see that we've fallen so far away from God over the years,

  • that God's trying to give us the way to get back to Him to be purified,

  • to be able to enter into the Kingdom.

  • Amen.

  • So, it's amazing.

  • I'm so happy for you.

  • Oh, I feel very blessed, believe me,

  • that I can hear God's voice.

  • Amen. How about you Charlie then?

  • Um … I was very skeptical.

  • I'm very arrogant. And I'm a stubborn man.

  • So, I didn't wanna believe initially.

  • There was nobody that was going to make me believe:

  • my wife, my dad, my mom.

  • So, until I picked up the book (Utterances of Christ of the Last Days)

  • and started reading for myself,

  • I've seen the authority and the power in the words in the book.

  • And I said to myself: Well, no man can talk to me this way.

  • It must be God, because that's how the Bible used to talk to me.

  • So I found a lot of authority and power in the words.

  • And that touched my heart deeply.

  • So then I also started reading and fellowshiping after that.

  • That means Tina first contacted the words of Almighty God,

  • and then you were not really convinced before.

  • And then

  • Gradually I came around to it and started searching it,

  • because it seemed, you know, it seemed like it was right

  • by what she was studying and what she was saying.

  • It sounded true, but I didn't …

  • Me being skeptical and arrogant I just was like: No way.

  • You know, it's (the Lord's return) supposed to be in the clouds.

  • I didn't expect words to be what was gonna judge me and chastise me.

  • I never expected that.

  • So, it was very deep that it happened that way.

  • And from there, from reading those words,

  • then I started to get more interested in it.

  • And started researching the truth more.

  • And researchand it was very good.

  • Yeah. So from which aspect did you make certain that it's God's work?

  • UmActually it was a passage in His book.

  • May I read it to you?

  • Yeah. Sure, go ahead.

  • "My words are the forever unchanging truth.

  • I am the supply of life for man and the only guide for mankind.

  • The worth and meaning of My 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 My words,

  • the value of My words and their help to mankind are inestimable by any man.

  • Therefore, when faced with the many men who rebel against, refute,

  • or are utterly contemptuous of My words,

  • My stance is only this:

  • Let time and facts be My witness

  • and show that My words are the truth, the way, and the life.

  • Let them show that all I have said is right,

  • and is that which man should be furnished with,

  • and, moreover, that which man should accept" (The Word Appears in the Flesh).

  • Amen!

  • It's very touching.

  • It's deep words that,

  • you know, only God could speak to you through.

  • It's very powerful to know that of this time,

  • He is speaking to my heart through His words.

  • And nobody's able to do that.

  • Anybody that truly knows me knows

  • that I'm very arrogant, very stubborn.

  • I'm not an easy person to persuade.

  • So only God can persuade me.

  • And I've had many men say they were gonna judge me.

  • And I tell them, "No. Only God will judge me."

  • That's how (I was), you know.

  • And I thank my wife.

  • She stayed dedicated to bringing me to the Word

  • even though I was fighting against it.

  • I had to look at it myself.

  • I had to acknowledge it for myself.

  • That was the only way.

  • And thank God.

  • That's true.

  • I'm gonna give it the best shot that I can possibly give to make that change.

  • 'cause eternal life means more than anything else.

  • It's eternal. It's better than anything material.

  • So I'm happy to be on a different path

  • and to be learning more new things about God.

  • Amen.

  • The mysteries, and everything's being revealed.

  • And it's very exciting.

  • Well, I can vouch for the arrogance, 'cause he is very very arrogant.

  • But, when he picked up God's words,

  • God's words speak for themselves.

  • He's recognized it.

  • He's a very arrogant person,

  • and he's like self-right. You know,

  • he even wonders:

  • "Can I change my disposition, 'cause I'm so arrogant?"

  • "And God's words, they pierce me in my heart,"

  • he's said that to me.

  • So, God's words are very very powerful.

  • That's true.

  • And God's words reveal our corruption.

  • And, only because we're so corrupt,

  • that's why those words affect us in such a deep way.

  • Because, if we weren't corrupt,

  • just by God expressing the truth we would be able to accept it a little bit easier.

  • But by being so corrupt, it pierces your heart

  • 'cause we can see how far away we've gotten from God,

  • and how we actually have become the embodiment of Satan,

  • where Satan has misled us down the wrong path.

  • I can see that it's Almighty God's word that touched your heart,

  • and brought you into The Church of Almighty God.

  • And God's word is the truth.

  • Yes. Thank God. Amen.

  • Yes. The truth is very very powerful.

  • And, when I've first seen it

  • I thought: God is brilliant.

  • By just revealing the truth He can accomplish so much.

  • And it is the only thing that can change mankind, and the direction of mankind.

  • It's the only thing that can purify us,

  • because only God can speak the truth, and only God knows the truth,

  • and only God knows our hearts and our minds

  • to be able to put it into the right perspective.

  • Basically, so

  • That's really true.

  • And, I'm very happy for you to finally find the truth.

  • I also met some people

  • who listened to the CCP's propaganda against The Church of Almighty God.

  • The CCP is atheistic

  • and is liar against The Church of Almighty God.

  • And it has spread a lot of rumors.

  • Yeah. (Yes, they have.)

  • Have you ever heard of any of them?

  • You know, I've seen the one rumor on YouTube,

  • 'cause I started researching a lot of the videos about the Church on YouTube.

  • And, when you look up the Church,

  • you'll see a video that talks about the murder in China

  • where they say 5 members of The Church of Almighty God beat a woman to death

  • for not giving them her phone number.

  • And, I just thought that was ridiculous.

  • I study with a lot of these Church members,

  • the brothers and sisters from the Church.

  • And they're very nice, compassionate, loving people.

  • And actually, when I joined the Church,

  • I learned that there're actually principles to join the Church.

  • You gotta have good humanity, you gotta love God,

  • and you gotta love the truth.

  • And, it says on there that she wouldn't give a phone number,

  • so that's why they beat her to death.

  • So for people like that beat that woman to death,

  • they wouldn't even be allowed to be members of the Church.

  • And I know that

  • Christians are heavily persecuted in China just for believing in God.

  • And there're a lot of House Churches,

  • to where if they're caught preaching the gospel or preaching about God,

  • they're arrested, and they're tortured.

  • So I know that

  • they would never ask for a phone number for somebody to spread the gospel,

  • because that's automatic condemnation.

  • If they're caught,

  • the CCP confiscates their phones, their computers,

  • and any numbers on there,

  • they start to go research those other people.

  • So, they would never use a phone to spread the gospel.

  • So, I didn't believe that.

  • And knowing how the Church members are,

  • what they're trying to seek,

  • it just did not make sense to me.

  • So, that's really a false statement.

  • It was put out there.

  • And I think it was 'cause the CCP is hard after the Church members.

  • Right, facts speak louder than words.

  • Anyone who has some knowledge of The Church of Almighty God

  • can see clearly that the McDonald's case is merely the CCP's slander

  • to attack and defame The Church of Almighty God.

  • Unfortunately, some people believed the rumor

  • before they actually investigated Almighty God's work,

  • so they were caught by fear

  • and refused to investigate Almighty God's work in the last days

  • and lost their salvation.

  • It's really a pity!

  • So about this rumor of the CCP, Charlie, what do you think?

  • When I researched it, it really angered me

  • becausewhy didn't anybody help?

  • I mean, if I would've been there that wouldn't have happened.

  • There's just no way!

  • I wouldn't have let that happen.

  • If I see that in my country, here in the U.S.,

  • five people beating up one lady,

  • I am not going to let it happen.

  • I would gonna jump in there and stop it.

  • So, to me, it was ridiculous,

  • it almost seemed like they staged it,

  • because who wouldn't help a woman?

  • Who would just allow that to happen?

  • So, to me I felt like it was an act.

  • Rumors are always rumors.

  • Even though they have been repeated millions of times,

  • they can never become the truth!

  • Yeah.

  • So, you mentioned about the brothers and sisters in The Church of Almighty God,

  • and you don't think they can do such kind of thing.

  • So in your opinion,

  • what kind of people are they, the brothers and sisters? (The brothers and sisters?)

  • Yeah, you contact.

  • I can start sharing my understanding of what we're reading

  • and when I leave something out,

  • or I don't touch on all of the topics, or all the expressions

  • I have a brother out there that I've only met one time,

  • and his name's Jimmy.

  • And Jimmy, he picked up from where I left off,

  • and he was able to fill in where I missed

  • to where me and him together are tag team brothers.

  • And we're not even of the same culture.

  • I'm American and he's Chinese, but we speak to each other's hearts,

  • and we're able to know how each other feels.

  • So, the brothers and sisters, we all get along like a family.

  • It's great!

  • It's different from any Church.

  • Amen.

  • How about you, Tina? What do you think?

  • They're God-fearing people. They love God.

  • They're very knowledgeable about God's end-time work,

  • about God's management plan,

  • you know, how God's been among us for such a long time for salvation basically.

  • So their goal is to accept the purification,

  • the judgment and chastisement from God.

  • So they're very loving people.

  • They're very kind. They're very trustworthy.

  • They're very reliable.

  • To where if you need them, you know, and they're in a fellowship or something,

  • they'll let you know they're doing something.

  • But, as soon as they're done,

  • they're glad to get with you and help us solve our problems.

  • They know how to seek out God's words, (it's) very good.

  • To where, if I'm going through something,

  • they can send me a passage of God's words

  • or a movie that relates to problems I'm having

  • or trials I'm going through at that time.

  • So theythey love God.

  • Thank you, Tina.

  • They're pretty much like family to me.

  • They have all the answers that I've had questions about.

  • So I tend to treat them like family.

  • Thank you.

  • Yeah.

  • You seem to have found a very good team to fellowship with.

  • Yes. They, they likethey work as a team.

  • You know, it's like God's family is trying to achieve the same goal.

  • So everybody's helping each other,

  • going through the judgment and the chastisement,

  • but everybody has to accept their own judgment and chastisement.

  • But it's a matter of, when we encounter trials,

  • of everybody helping each other to, you know, to overcome, to become purified.

  • So it's a blessing to be able to be a part of the family.

  • Amen.

  • That means that they have the same goal to pursue.

  • Yes.

  • I don't have very many friends, and I never have.

  • And it's been very hard for me to open up to people.

  • And, you know, I can open up and tell my deepest, darkest secrets to them,

  • or things that are deep-felt, heart-felt emotions to them.

  • And they can do the same with me.

  • To where, you know, it's very very close interactions.

  • To where the outside world I could never do that with

  • because I could not trust people.

  • You know, you tell them something, and they'll use it against you.

  • And, you know,

  • with the brothers and sisters from the Church

  • it's nothing like that.

  • You know, it's all of us helping each other

  • to build each other up to become purified.

  • I think (that the) fellowship you start with the brothers and sisters

  • really helps a lot.

  • And what is the fellowship you have gone through?

  • And what kind of the church life is like in The Church of Almighty God?

  • UmWe do fellowships, we watch gospel movies,

  • we'll sing together during the fellowships, or we'll dance.

  • It's a whole different way of life, to where people are real.

  • They're expressing their heartfelt emotions, their heartfelt inside self,

  • instead of trying to look good in front of others.

  • Most people will try to tell you the positive things,

  • to where they try to make a good impression.

  • Well, the good impression doesn't exist with the Church members.

  • It's all about laying your heart out in the light,

  • and trying to overcome your corruptions.

  • Help each other.

  • And everybody helps each other with (exposing) their corruptions.

  • Like, if I go through problems, I can tell one of the sisters.

  • And they'll send me some of God's words that I can read,

  • pertaining to what I'm going through,

  • so I know how to seek the truth that's within it, and overcome it.

  • So, it's a whole different way of life.

  • And it's more real way of life, more compassionate, more loving.

  • They're very trustworthy people. They're very reliable.

  • You can contact them at any time.

  • And, if they're doing a fellowship, they'll tell you,

  • "Well, you know what, I'm in a fellowship.

  • When I get finished, we can talk."

  • So, it's very togetherness, I guess you could say.

  • From what you're sharing,

  • I can see you all feel released in the meeting,

  • and lay bare all the difficulties to each other,

  • and solve them by seeking the truth together.

  • Everyone pursues to be an honest person.

  • Such kind of church life is indeed beneficial to the growth of life.

  • What about you, Charlie?

  • Could you share what you have gained and your feelings in the church life?

  • I gained a family. A new family, that's what I gained.

  • There's no other way to explain it.

  • I mean,

  • everything else I've gotta change for myself through God's words.

  • But, through that I've gained a family.

  • And brothers and sisters, they were so excited to take pictures with us,

  • and just talk with us,

  • and it was an amazing feeling to actually go to the Church.

  • Because it's not like any church I've ever gone to.

  • I mean, every church I've ever been to was

  • You had a pastor,

  • and the pastor spoke words out of the Bible, which, you know, we've all read.

  • He'd just mock up a sermon and tell us words we already knew.

  • And he'd kinda shout 'em with authority.

  • But when I came to The Church of Almighty God, I found out:

  • Wow! There were only two hosts.

  • And wow! We studied all of God's words together.

  • Oh, and wow! I can get up there,

  • and I can share my understanding of what we just studied.

  • I don't have to just keep it to myself.

  • So I was able to get up and share before the Church and everybody

  • what I was enlightened by these words.

  • When I was done my heart was touched,

  • and my brothers and sisters were happy.

  • They were happy that my heart was touched.

  • And now I touched their heart because I was touched.

  • So it was a very very good feeling

  • that people I didn't even know were touched by my understanding.

  • And then somebody else would share their understanding

  • and it would touch me again,

  • and also they were touched.

  • So, it's not like a regular church.

  • The Church of Almighty God, it was very exciting.

  • There's so much to learn.

  • Yes.

  • What is your experience then?

  • Um … I gained a lot of meaning and purpose to my life,

  • to where I've learned a lot about God:

  • God's substance, God's disposition.

  • My corruption's actually deep within myself.

  • It's like I'm trying to gain reality of the truth, and making that your life,

  • to where you live that everyday.

  • And you live and have experiences, trials, tribulations within our corruptions

  • to eliminate them.

  • And everybody's doing the same thing.

  • So, when we do fellowships and we share,

  • you can actually feel the work of the Holy Spirit,

  • because you feel these people are enlightened by what they are reading.

  • And when we're sharing, we learn from each other.

  • People are going through different things.

  • And so, when we read a passage and we share,

  • something we might miss they might bring up.

  • And we're like: Oh, I can relate to that, I can see that.

  • And there's a lot of different fellowships,

  • where there's like life experience fellowships

  • where people have experienced their corruptions,

  • and they open themselves up.

  • They don't feel like they'll receive any condemnation.

  • No one gives them condemnation.

  • But, you can relate to that, seeing your arrogance in dealing with other people.

  • And it's kind of, you work with it through God's words.

  • And out in the outer world you think:

  • I'm gonna tell nobody that I'm arrogant.

  • But within the Church,

  • it's something that everybody's experiencing.

  • And it's like you can see how they've eliminated theirs.

  • So, maybe you look within yourself:

  • I have that same thing.

  • How can I eliminate my arrogance?

  • Or, how can I deal with it?

  • Or, how can I help them with theirs?

  • Yes. So, it's amazing.

  • So, it's give and take when it comes to our fellowships.

  • You can usually hear when somebody's down in a fellowship,

  • like they're going through something.

  • Yes.

  • And to have the nerve enough to ask them,

  • "What's going on?"

  • "What is the problem?"

  • That takes a lot to do that to somebody.

  • That means that you care for them.

  • And when they explain to you their problems,

  • then you start thinking of ways to try to help them, and build them back up

  • so that they feel strength within them again.

  • And then God overtakes their spirit again.

  • And then they feel positive and they can get through their problems.

  • So that is real.

  • That's a plus that we can help each other that way.

  • It's amazing.

  • I can see that, The Church of Almighty God gives you a same goal

  • to pursue to get rid of the corruptions.

  • From what you share,

  • I think that's something very very important.

  • Well, it's amazing that God's words affect everybody.

  • We're all very corrupt.

  • But, you have this one truth that affects everybody in a different way.

  • And they're all seeking the same goal to eliminate their corruptions.

  • So, it's kinda like finally having reality.

  • You know, knowing what truth is,

  • and be able to put that into your life, life experiences through the truth.

  • So, it's a whole different way of life.

  • Instead of relying on ourselves, our own imaginations, our own notions,

  • we now have the truth that we can follow to gain life.

  • God says,

  • "I am the way, I am the truth, I am the life" (see John 14:6).

  • And there's only one way. There's only one truth.

  • And, if you know those two ways, you can actually gain life.

  • So, God is very amazing.

  • And that's what God is, God has. (Very practical.)

  • He reveals everything. He's a very very practical God.

  • Amen!

  • It is really very practical

  • that Almighty God expressed the truth to save the corrupt mankind in the last days.

  • As long as we accepted the judgment and chastisement of God's word,

  • we can gradually know the truth, and know our corruption,

  • and have a true knowledge of God's righteous disposition.

  • In the end, we will have a true heart of fearing God

  • and receive the purification and completely get rid of sin.

  • So that's amazing!

  • Yes.

  • You grow rather fast—(Yes. Rather fast.)

  • because God is speaking directly to you. (Yes.)

  • If you are a true God-fearing person,

  • God is speaking to your heart and your spirit,

  • so, how could it not be God?

  • Because nobody speaks that way.

  • Yeah.

  • I've read the Bible for a long time.

  • And I've learned more in the last six months about God, about me, about Satan,

  • than I have read the Bible since I was 20.

  • So, that's 30 years ago.

  • I've learned more in six months than I have in 30 years,

  • and that's by having the truth, by finally having the truth.

  • Yeah. That's all because

  • Almighty God started the work of word disclosing all the truths.

  • So that we can understand so much, understand His work, and understand

  • Thank God for the power of Almighty God's word!

  • Amen.

  • I never knew God was so practical.

  • It's like you feel God's presence everyday.

  • And, we know that God has been trying to save us since the beginning of time.

  • God is the only One that can reveal His six-thousand-year management plan.

  • And we're at the end of this management plan,

  • to where we need to be purified to continue on into the kingdom.

  • And, I never realized how God was among us that whole time.

  • And you can see God's love, God's patience for mankind,

  • and all the pain that He's endured of (us) being so far away from Him.

  • So, it's a blessing to try to even repay God's love by accepting His new work.

  • Amen. You know what,

  • many people admire the disciples of the Lord Jesus at that time,

  • because they could listen to the preaching of the Lord Jesus very often

  • and be face-to-face with the Lord.

  • Today, we can hear the personal voice of Almighty God

  • and know God's will directly from Almighty God's word.

  • That is being face-to-face with God! (Amen.)

  • Thank you, Tina, Charlie,

  • thank you for your wonderful sharing!

  • You're welcome.

  • Yes.

  • Very nice.

  • And, in the end of our interview,

  • do you have anything to say to our audience?

  • For the end, I'd like to read some words that really touched my heart.

  • OK, of course. Sure.

  • "In the last days, Christ uses a variety of truths

  • to teach man, reveal the essence of man,

  • and dissect his words and deeds.

  • These words comprise various truths,

  • such as man's duty,

  • how man should obey God, how man should be loyal to God,

  • how man ought to live out the normal humanity,

  • as well as the wisdom and disposition of God, and so on.

  • These words are all focused on the essence of man and his corrupt disposition.

  • In particular, those words that reveal how man spurns God

  • are spoken in regard to how man is an embodiment of Satan

  • and an enemy force against God.

  • When God does the work of judgment,

  • He does not simply make clear the nature of man with just a few words,

  • but carries out revelation, dealing and pruning over the long term.

  • Such manner of revelation, dealing, and pruning

  • cannot be substituted with ordinary words

  • but with the truth that man does not possess at all.

  • Only such manner of work is deemed judgment;

  • only through such judgment can man be persuaded,

  • be thoroughly convinced into submission to God,

  • and gain true knowledge of God.

  • What the work of judgment brings about is man's understanding of the true face of God

  • and the truth about his rebelliousness.

  • The work of judgment allows man to gain much understanding of the will of God,

  • of the purpose of God's work

  • and of the mysteries that could not be understood by man.

  • It also allows man to recognize and know his corrupt substance

  • and the roots of his corruption,

  • as well as to discover the ugliness of man.

  • These effects are all brought about by the work of judgment,

  • for the substance of such work is actually the work of opening up the truth,

  • way, and life of God to all those who have faith in Him.

  • This work is the work of judgment done by God " (The Word Appears in the Flesh).

  • These words are very powerful,

  • and our judgment is done through God's words.

  • It's just amazing.

  • I would like to say that: Guess what, God is back!

  • And He's come with a purpose.

  • And if He's able to change somebody as corrupt and arrogant as me,

  • it should be easy for the rest of you. (Amen!)

  • So I can say to that. (Amen!)

  • People that know me know what kind of person I was,

  • and all the corrupt things I've done.

  • So, thank God that I was able to find the truth.

  • So, when I finally started researching Almighty God,

  • it was an incredible feeling because I just was like:

  • How? How? How could this talk to me this way?

  • And just, it's a very incredible feeling.

  • And that's what I'm gonna share about that.

  • Because I could go on and onand I don't need to do that.

  • I'm very touched by God,

  • and it's a very amazing thing to be touched by God.

  • It's like nothing other that I've ever experienced.

  • Thank God! That's really true.

  • God has already returned,

  • and He is doing the work of judgment with His word,

  • so that those who truly come before Him can be completely purified!

  • Tina and Charlie, you can accept God's work in the last days,

  • you are blessed!

  • This is the only way to the kingdom of heaven

  • for without holiness, no one can see God.

  • So I really hope those who are eagerly waiting for the Lord's return

  • and those who are thirsty for the truth

  • can enjoy Almighty God's word like you do

  • and be purified, and finally receive God's promise.

  • I've gained a lot. And all the thanks go to Almighty God!

  • Amen!

  • Praise God!

  • Amen!

  • For the ending of it, I'd like to share a hymn I've learned

  • to show my gratefulness and praise to Almighty God.

  • Sounds like a good idea.

  • Why not?

  • What song is that?

  • It's called The Heart's Voice of a Created Being.

  • Oh, good!

  • It's a good hymn.

  • Great! Let's start!

  • "I wanted to cry but no place felt right.

  • I wanted to sing but no song was found.

  • I wanted to express the love of a created being.

  • Searching high and low, but no words could say,

  • could say just how I feel.

  • Practical and true God, the love inside my heart.

  • I lift my hands in praise,

  • I rejoice that You came into this world."

  • from Hymns of Life Experience in Follow the Lamb and Sing New Songs

  • And we gonna see you next time.

  • Thank you.

  • It's great to me.

  • Thank you, good to be here.

  • Yeah. Thank God, praise God.

Good evening, everyone.
