  • 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 guests—Tina 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.

  • Um … Back 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?

  • Um … Because 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.
