  • We have accepted the Lord, and obtained salvation.

  • Why do we still have to accept Almighty God's work of judgment and purification?

  • because the sinful nature inside us still remains.

  • People are still compelled by their satanic nature to resist and betray God.

  • Sister, I have another question.

  • The Lord Jesus was crucified as a sin offering to redeem man.

  • We have accepted the Lord, and obtained salvation.

  • Why do we still have to accept Almighty God's work of judgment and purification?

  • We believe the Lord has already forgiven us, forgiven us all our sins.

  • The Lord doesn't see us as sinners.

  • Why does the Lord need to do the work of judgment on His return?

  • About this question, can you please explain more?

  • Yes, sure. This is what so many people don't understand,

  • and a question we absolutely have to look into.

  • We need fellowship about this.

  • In the Age of Grace, the Lord Jesus did the work of redemption.

  • It was not God's work of judgment in the last days to save all of man.

  • What the work of redemption achieved

  • was a sacrifice to atone for the sins of man through the Lord Jesus' work.

  • He saved us from the clutches of Satan,

  • made us repent our sins and accept God's salvation.

  • He qualified us to go before God and enjoy God's grace and blessing.

  • That was the real significance of the work of redemption.

  • But many people don't understand.

  • They always think that the Lord Jesus' work of redemption

  • granted complete salvation to all mankind into the kingdom of heaven.

  • That notion comes from man's imagination.

  • We were given redemption by the Lord Jesus. That much is true.

  • But did that change our sinful natures?

  • Does the fact that God forgave us our sins mean we've truly been holy?

  • Then why do we still sin so frequently?

  • Can those who often sin really be approved by the Lord?

  • No, they can't.

  • Not many people have considered this problem,

  • and we've never seen anyone truly understand this problem.

  • The Lord Jesus redeemed us from a state of sin.

  • We were forgiven our sins, granted salvation, and this is a fact.

  • But then, as we believe in and follow the Lord,

  • we also often betray the Lord's teachings,

  • and give in to our fleshly desires to sin.

  • We do things like lie, commit fraud, deceive,

  • engage in intrigue, seek fame and fortune.

  • We give in to vanity, lust for wealth, and follow evil worldly trends.

  • In times of bitterness and trial, we often misunderstand and blame God,

  • or even leave and betray God.

  • When God's work doesn't align with man's notions,

  • we carelessly judge, condemning God.

  • At the same time we follow God, we worship man and follow man.

  • People live in a cycle of sinning and repenting. That's hard to escape.

  • We can't free ourselves from the binds and control of our satanic nature.

  • This is a fact.

  • And although the Lord Jesus' work of redemption is done,

  • people's sins are forgiven,

  • and people are no longer cursed for violating God's laws,

  • and can come before God to pray to Him,

  • and enjoy the entirety of God's grace,

  • that does not mean God's work of saving mankind is over,

  • because the sinful nature inside us still remains.

  • People are still compelled by their satanic nature to resist and betray God.

  • People have no knowledge of God and can't fear God and shun evil,

  • even less can they reach complete obedience to God and the sanctity with God.

  • These people haven't been gained by God.

  • We all know God is holy and righteous.

  • Unsanctified people can't see the Lord.

  • God won't allow the impure or corrupt into the kingdom of heaven.

  • This is decided by God's righteousness.

  • So in the last days,

  • God will, according to His management plan to save mankind,

  • carry out His work of judgment and chastisement,

  • remove the shackles and restraints of the corrupt mankind

  • and the root causes of sin,

  • and help mankind completely escape the influence of Satan,

  • be saved by God, and enter God's kingdom.

  • Let's look at two more passages from Almighty God.

  • In the last days, God will completely save man from Satan's influence,

  • make man to turn to God, be compatible with Christ,

  • becoming holy people who fear God and obey God.

  • The only way to achieve that

  • is through God's work of judgment and chastisement in the last days.

  • Only through the judgment and revelations in God's words

  • can people finally come to know the truth of how they've been corrupted by Satan

  • and the essence of their nature,

  • and know the righteousness, majesty, and intolerance of offense

  • in God's disposition.

  • Only in this way can people produce true remorse and repentance,

  • wills that hate the flesh and betray Satan, and hearts that fear God,

  • truly escape the dark influence of Satan, turn to God, and be gained by God.

  • Only such people will finally be those who are saved and enter God's kingdom.

  • Thanks be to God. All these years,

  • I've often suffered and been confused over the cycle of sin and repentance.

  • Hearing your fellowship today, I feel liberated.

  • Even though we've been redeemed, our sinful nature hasn't changed,

  • which is why we can't achieve true sanctity,

  • and are unqualified to enter God's kingdom.

  • We need the purification of God's judgment!

  • Like it says in the Bible,

  • To cast off our sinful nature, be holy and enter God's kingdom,

  • we need to undergo God's judgment of the last days!

  • Thanks be to God.

  • Thank the Lord. Your fellowship is wonderful.

  • It's answered so many of my doubts.

  • Looks like God's work of judgment in the last days is meaningful and necessary.

  • We need to read more of Almighty God's words!

  • Hearing your fellowship on Almighty God's words,

  • it feels very practical and contains truths. (Yes.)

  • We want to seek those truths.

  • Can you loan us this book The Word Appears in the Flesh?

  • Of course I can!

  • People find answers to difficulties and confusion about believing in God

  • in Almighty God's words.

  • The Word Appears in the Flesh is an expression of Almighty God.

  • Anyone who wants to seek can read it.

We have accepted the Lord, and obtained salvation.
