The Kingdom of God Is Come | Gospel Song | "God's Name Will Be Magnified Among the Gentile Nations"

I

The purpose of God’s judgment is to encourage man’s obedience;

the purpose of God’s chastisement is to allow for man’s transformation.

Though God’s work is for His management’s sake,

none of what He does isn’t good to man.

God wants the lands beyond Israel to obey as the Israelites did,

to make them into real men, so that in the lands beyond Israel

God’s foothold shall be gained. This is the management of God.

It’s His work in the lands of the Gentiles.

II

Today, many people still don’t understand God’s management.

It’s because their cares and desires are focused on the future they’ll acquire.

No matter what God speaks, Him and His work they don’t seek.

Man only thinks of tomorrow’s land.

If this goes on, how will God’s work expand?

How will the gospel spread the world?

You must know when God’s work grows, you will be scattered far and wide.

God will strike you, God will strike you, as Jehovah did with Israel tribes,

so the gospel will spread the earth, God’s work to Gentile lands.

Among young and old God’s name will expand,

and from the mouths of all tribes shall God’s holy name be praised.

III

In the end times, in the final age, God’s name

will be magnified among Gentile nations.

The acts of God will be by Gentiles seen,

and they’ll address Him as the Almighty,

and thus His words shall one day soon come true.

God will make man know true He is not only God of Israelites,

but God of all Gentile nations too, and those accursed by Him.

God will make every man see that the God of all creation is He.

This is God’s greatest work, the purpose of His work in the end of days,

and the only work He shall do at the end of days.

God’s Words Comfort Me After My Daughter Is Involved in a Sudden Car Accident

It was gone 11 a.m. on the morning of October 8, 2011 and I was just preparing lunch at home, when suddenly the phone rang. As soon as I answered it, the person calling said anxiously, “Your Lanlan has been in a car accident and they’re trying to save her at the county hospital. You’d best get here as soon as you can!” Hearing this, I felt a loud buzzing in my head, and before I’d said anything, the other person hung up. After I’d put the phone down, I just stood there for a while, thinking: “My daughter went out on her bicycle this morning to run some errands. How could she have been in a car accident? It’s just a prank call, isn’t it? But their tone didn’t sound like they were trying to trick me….” I didn’t have time to think any more, so I stopped what I was doing and left the house. I hurriedly waved down a cab and rushed to the county hospital. I was so worried as I sat in the cab that I clenched my fists tightly together, and I just kept looking out the window. I felt totally confused and upset and I couldn’t stop thinking: “How badly hurt is my daughter? Where has she been hurt? Is her life in danger? She’s only 17. She must be really scared being in the hospital on her own….” The more I thought about it, the more panicky I got, and I couldn’t calm down. I wanted to be there instantly by my daughter’s side to see what exactly the situation was. In my helplessness, I thought of God, and then quickly I called on God in my heart: “O God! I hear that my daughter has been in a car accident. My heart is in turmoil and I’m really worried, and I don’t know how my daughter is right now or how bad her injuries are. O God! I ask that You protect my heart so that I may keep calm before You. However serious my daughter’s injuries are, give me the courage to face it all.” After praying, I thought of these words of God: “Because I am your Father, I am your strong tower, I am your shelter, I am your backup, and moreover I am your Almighty One, and I am your everything!” (“Chapter 109” of Utterances of Christ in the Beginning). Yes, God is almighty, and He holds sovereignty over everything and administers all things. God is our strong backup and He is our greatest support. I should entrust my daughter to God and rely on God as I experience this situation. As I thought this, my panicked heart gradually began to calm down.

I Am Willing to Accept the Supervision of All

I Am Willing to Accept the Supervision of All

By Xianshang, Shanxi Province

A little while ago, whenever I heard that upper-level leaders were coming to our church to implement some work, I would feel a bit ill at ease. I didn’t reveal my feelings outwardly, but my heart was full of opposition. I thought: “It would be best if you all didn’t come. If you do come, at least don’t water the church with me. Otherwise, I’ll be restricted and unable to commune.” Later, the situation got so bad that I actually hated their coming. But being so numb, I had no understanding of the state I was in, much less did I think to seek the truth to resolve it.

Amidst Disaster, I Saw God’s Hand

Amidst Disaster, I Saw God’s Hand

  Ying Xin, Beijing

On July 22, 2012, the day after Beijing’s flood of July 21, I hurried over to visit a sister who had just accepted God’s work of the last days two months previously. No sooner had I entered her village when the scene I saw before me stunned me speechless! I saw that the roads had collapsed, revealing their foundations beneath the asphalt. Everywhere were stone fragments that had tumbled down from the mountain, the larger of them weighing a few tons. Mud had piled up to thirty centimeters deep, and the rainwater running off the mountain slopes had already formed into a small river…. The entire village was in a total mess, completely beyond recognition.

Is There Any Biblical Basis for the Statement “Once Saved, Always Saved”

Is There Any Biblical Basis for the Statement “Once Saved, Always Saved”

By Yang Xin, Shandong Province

     The sun sank into the west, and the last light of the sinking sun spread across the world as I walked back home after a meeting, thinking of what the pastor had said: “Once saved, then we are always saved, for the Bible says, ‘That if you shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you shall be saved. For with the heart man believes to righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made to salvation’ (Romans 10:9-10). As we believe in the Lord Jesus, as long as we believe in our hearts and acknowledge Him with our mouths, then we are saved, and if we are saved once then we are always saved. As long as we keep working and expending ourselves for the Lord and endure till the very end, then when the Lord returns, we will immediately be raptured up into the kingdom of heaven!” I gave an Amen to the pastor’s words: “Yes! The Lord Jesus was nailed to the cross so that we could be redeemed, so as long as we call upon the Lord’s name, confess our sins and repent to the Lord, then our sins will be absolved and we will be saved by His grace—once saved, always saved, and afterward we will surely be raptured up into the kingdom of heaven.” Over the years of my belief in the Lord, I had always firmly believed that this view was correct, and never once doubted it.
