Do you know the true meaning of the coming of the Son of man? Many brothers and sisters don’t know about this, and according to the prophecy of the Lord Jesus, “And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory” (Matthew 24:30), they believe that the Lord Jesus will come back in the last days in His resurrected spiritual body with great glory, appearing publicly to all peoples.

You say that during the last days, God does the work of judgment in order to class each according to his kind, to reward good and punish evil, to bring the old age to an end, and that, ultimately, Christ’s kingdom shall be realized on earth. How will Christ’s kingdom appear on earth? And what will the beauty of the kingdom look like?

Who Are the Poor in Spirit?

One day, I saw that the Lord Jesus said, “Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven” (Matthew 5:3). I pondered: The Lord likes the poor in spirit. Those who are not poor in spirit cannot enter the kingdom of heaven. Then, what kind of people are the poor in spirit?

When we had a meeting, I discussed about this question with my brothers and sisters. Continue reading “Who Are the Poor in Spirit?”

God’s word of the day: “Knowing God Is the Path to Fearing God and Shunning Evil” (Excerpt 1)

bible study | lord Jesus

Everyone should examine anew his life of believing in God to see whether, in the pursuit of God, he has truly understood, truly comprehended, and truly come to know God, whether he truly knows what attitude God bears to the various types of human beings, and whether he truly understands what God is working upon him and how God defines his every act. This God, who is by your side, guiding the direction of your progress, ordaining your destiny, and supplying your needs—how much do you, in the final analysis, understand and how much do you really know about Him? Do you know what He works on you every single day? Do you know the principles and purposes on which He bases His every action? Do you know how He guides you? Do you know the means by which He supplies you? Continue reading “God’s word of the day: “Knowing God Is the Path to Fearing God and Shunning Evil” (Excerpt 1)”

Will the Lord Jesus take believers up into the kingdom of heaven when He comes again?

For every Christian who is waiting devoutly for the return of the Lord, the topic of the believers’ rapture when the Lord returns in the last days is always attractive. None of believers are not expecting to be raptured into the kingdom of heaven when the Lord comes back. However, what on earth is the true meaning of rapture? Does it really mean that the believers are lifted into the air by the Lord in the last days? To understand this aspect of the truth, let’s first read several verses. Acts 8:39-40 says, “And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing. But Philip was found at Azotus: and passing through he preached in all the cities, till he came to Caesarea.” Continue reading “Will the Lord Jesus take believers up into the kingdom of heaven when He comes again?”

Knowing Jesus – Why Did the Lord Jesus Not Keep the Sabbath?

Liu Jing

Previously, when I saw the scriptures recorded in the Bible, “At that time Jesus went on the sabbath day through the corn; and his disciples were an hungered, and began to pluck the ears of corn and to eat. But when the Pharisees saw it, they said to him, Behold, your disciples do that which is not lawful to do on the sabbath day” (Matthew 12:1-2), I thought to myself: Why did the Lord Jesus lead His disciples to the outdoors on the Sabbath although He clearly knew the Pharisees kept the laws and rules? Wouldn’t it be easy for the Pharisees to get a handle and attack and judge Him? Then why did the Lord Jesus do like this? These questions had been preying on my mind. Continue reading “Knowing Jesus – Why Did the Lord Jesus Not Keep the Sabbath?”

The Poor in Spirit Can Hear God’s Voice and Follow His Footsteps

Matthew 25:6 says, “And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom comes; go you out to meet him.” The Lord Jesus’ words tell us clearly that, when He returns in the last days, people will testify to us that “the bridegroom comes,” meaning they are testifying that the Lord has returned. So what practices should we adopt to accord with the Lord’s will and that will enable us to greet the Lord? The Lord Jesus did in fact tell us of two paths of practice for investigating the true way long ago.

Will the Lord Jesus Come Again in a Jewish Image?

bible study | lord Jesus

Revelation 3:11 says, the Lord said: “Behold, I come quickly….” Many brothers and sisters in the Lord read this verse and believe that when the Lord returns, He shall still descend among His sincere believers in the image and clothes of a Jew because He ascended to heaven in a Jewish image. Just as the Bible says: “You men of Galilee, why stand you gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as you have seen him go into heaven” (Acts 1:11). We have waited for so many years, and now in the last days, prophecies of the return of the Lord have come true. However, none of us see the Lord Jesus arrive among us in the image of a Jew.

This Is the Significance of God Appearing and Working in China

The breeze of spring gently blew. Zhong Hui sat at her desk holding the Bible, deep in thought: “Nowadays disasters are growing ever worse, the world is in a state of constant upheaval and turmoil with wars on the rise, and the four blood moons have already appeared—many of the prophecies about the Lord’s return have been fulfilled. It seems that the Lord’s day is upon us. Yet not only haven’t I received the Lord, but my spirit is becoming ever darker and the church is growing more and more desolate.” Thinking of this, she became even more anxious, so she prayed earnestly to the Lord … Continue reading “This Is the Significance of God Appearing and Working in China”

To Whom Should We Listen When Investigating the True Way?

This essay will tell you the differences between the wise and foolish virgins, showing you the way to welcome the Lord’s second coming.

Cui Yinglu is a devout Christian expecting to welcome the Lord’s return. Once, he listened to sermons in another city and unexpectedly he ran into Jin Minzhe, a friend who he hadn’t seen for years. More surprisingly, Jin Minzhe bore witness to him on the work of Almighty God in the last days. Hearing the words of Almighty God, he thought these words came from God. Therefore he decided to examine carefully Almighty God’s work of the last days.
