"Rapture in Peril" (4) - God's Work of Judgment in the Last Days Has Perfected a Group of Overcomers

Subtitles section Play video

As long as we pursue according to the path Brother Lin led,
we'll surely become overcomers.
Brother Lin didn't experience God's end-time judgment.
He wasn't an overcomer.
So how could he lead others on the path to becoming overcomers?
Could you tell us what the overcomer is?
The true overcomers will only be made through experiencing God's work of judgment.
In the midst of God's chastisement and judgment,
they bear various testimonies of overcoming Satan and the dark influence of the great red dragon.
All these blessed overcomers are the fruits of Almighty God's judgment in the last days.
Thanks to God for letting us fellowship with you.
Everyone, our long-awaited Lord Jesus has already returned to us.
He's returned as the incarnate Almighty God.
And the arrival of Almighty God means the Age of Grace is done.
The Age of Kingdom has begun.
Almighty God has expressed all the truth
that purifies, saves and perfects mankind.
He began the work of judgment with God's house.
By the end, He'll have some overcomers.
What God will perfect are those who are of one mind with Him.
He'll then bring them into His kingdom
to receive His eternal promise and blessing.
That is the overcomers will be made
through God's work of judgment in the last days.
So then, whether we're able to accept God's judgment in the last days
will determine whether we'll be raptured before His throne,
and granted entrance to His kingdom.
What? The Lord's returned to make a group of overcomers?
Impossible!
Brother Lin was our leader. He taught the Local Church how to be overcomers.
If we stick to the path he showed us, we'll surely be overcomers! (Amen!)
Overcomers come from the Local Church! (Amen!)
And the rapture? We're going first!
We can enter the kingdom of heaven when the Lord's back. (Amen!)
You said Almighty God will do the work of judgment to make overcomers.
Impossible!
Amen! As long as we pursue according to the path Brother Lin led,
we'll surely become overcomers
and be taken into the kingdom of heaven! (Amen!)
Hallelujah! (Amen!)
Brothers and sisters, let's not argue with one another! (Right. Yeah!)
Arguing's a sign of arrogance and conceitedness.
When we search for God's appearance and His work,
we should treat it with reverence and seek the truth in all things. (Amen!)
As you know the Local Church has been desolate
without the work of the Holy Spirit.
You've heard the testimony of the Lord's return,
and as the church workers and leaders, you haven't sought it further,
but have been rude and arrogant!
You're the ones who revere God?
This is how you seek knowledge of the Lord's return?
Amen!
We long for the kingdom of heaven. We await the Lord's return. (Yes.)
Only one church in the world, the Church of Almighty God,
says the Lord has returned and has begun the judgment at the house of God.
Yes. Right.
We should try to be clever virgins with a reverence for the Lord.
We should investigate the work of Almighty God, which is after the Lord's heart.
Yes. That's right.
Ask anything you like and then we can discuss and fellowship.
Yes. That makes a lot of sense.
All right! Allow me to start.
You testified that God incarnate has come to do the work of judgment,
that is the work to make overcomers.
We believe the Lord Jesus will come to take His believers.
So how could He do the work of judgment and make overcomers? (Amen!)
Brother Lin was raised up and used by God.
He led us to be regenerated, transformed, conformed
and glorified to be overcomers. (Amen!)
We believe that we'll be raptured first! (Amen!)
You testified that only God can make overcomers.
We believe following Brother Lin and walking the path he led
will make us overcomers, (Amen.)
and we will be raptured! (Amen.)
Am I right or not?
Why don't you fellowship about that!
If Lord's words are constituted into us by praying, studying and preaching,
and through regeneration and transformation, we'll be overcomers! (Amen!)
When the Lord comes, we'll be taken into the kingdom of heaven!
As for God incarnate, we don't need Him to perfect us into overcomers.
If the Lord comes and doesn't rapture us into the kingdom of heaven,
then it's not His return!
We won't accept!
Brother Wang, we need to know what the Lord's return really means,
as well as what it means to be raptured, and that what work the Lord will do.
We can't fathom at all, so how then can we define it?
What if it happens Almighty God is the returned Jesus,
and He starts the very work of judgment at the house of God?
If we resist, condemn,
won't we become sinners just like the Pharisees who resisted Lord Jesus?
Even now, I'm not aware of any church or any sect
who says the Lord's returned to do the work of judgment in the last days.
The Church of Almighty God is the only one who says so.
So then, shouldn't we investigate it?
It's so important we really should discuss it.
We can't judge blindly. We have to be careful.
All right. Brother Meng, Brother Yang,
we'd all love to hear, so would you fellowship?
Brother Sun would love an answer to his question!
I can't wait for your profound insights.
I'd like to hear them too.
You said that the path Brother Lin led is to make overcomers
and if we follow the path Brother Lin led, we could be overcomers.
The Lord Jesus comes again to rapture the believers,
so He couldn't do the work of judgment to make overcomers.
Could you tell us what your biblical support is?
Where is the prophecy of the Lord Jesus testifying that?
Those who understand the Bible all know that
God makes overcomers before the disaster.
God incarnate descends in the last days
and He expresses the truth necessary for the judgment,
so He can make a group of overcomers.
The prophecy in Revelation says,
Amen!
And 1 Peter 4:17 says,
The Bible prophesied what the Spirit said to the churches,
the Philadelphia Church's rapture
and the judgment that begins at the house of God.
All this is what the Lord Jesus does when He comes again.
God incarnate descends secretly in the last days,
just to do the work of judgment beginning at God's house and make us overcomers.
Almighty God's utterance, The Word Appears in the Flesh,
is what the Spirit says to the churches and is the hidden manna.
The name of Almighty God is God's new name.
The Philadelphia Church accepts the new name of God,
which means they are raptured.
All those who call on the name of Almighty God
and read His words throughout their daily lives,
are raptured before God's throne,
receive the judgment and purification of His words.
They will obtain the truth and overcome Satan to be gained and perfected by God.
The people are truly the overcomers.
It's obvious that God's own work in the last days is to make us overcomers.
It must be done by Him. No one else can. (Yes. Amen.)
I always thought that we were the Philadelphia Church
and that we'd be raptured first.
Now it seems that we don't know God's voice,
nor do we accept what the Spirit says to the churches.
How can we hope to receive God's new name?
How can we be the Philadelphia Church, be raptured before Him?
Brother Lin said overcomers come from the Local Church. How is it possible?
Mm, great question. How is it possible?
Brothers and sisters,
overcomers are made by God incarnate
as He does the work of judgment beginning at God's house in the last days.
It's not only in the Bible, but spelled out clearly by Almighty God.
Maybe we should look at the words of Almighty God.
I'll read it! (Great.)
Mm, interesting. (Mm, Yes.)
Brothers and sisters,
the true overcomers will only be made
through experiencing God's work of judgment.
In the last days, the incarnate Almighty God descends into China secretly,
and does the work of judgment starting at God's house.
Almighty God has expressed all the truth that purifies and saves us
to judge and reveal man's satanic nature that resists God and their true self.
He has revealed to man God's righteous and holy disposition,
and His almightiness and wisdom.
After experiencing the judgment, pruning and trials of God's word,
man has surely witnessed the truth of his ugliness and corruption from Satan,
man's true self, arrogant and self-conceited, full of ambition,
judgmental, selfish and base, crooked and crafty, shirking the truth,
full of false ideas about God
and prone to resisting and betraying Him at any time.
They are definitely Satan's descendants who rebel against God.
They're simply unworthy of living before Him or being saved by Him.
But they've also felt God's word is truth,
falling down in conviction.
They appreciate God's holiness and disposition,
which is not to be defiled or offended. They've learned this through experience.
These people have a real reverence for God.
They're able to obey Him and live by His words.
In the midst of God's chastisement and judgment,
they bear various testimonies of overcoming Satan
and the dark influence of the great red dragon.
Especially some who overcome the cruel persecution of the great red dragon.
All these blessed overcomers
are the fruits of Almighty God's judgment in the last days.
On Mainland China, there's a group of God's overcomers.
This is the ironclad proof! (Amen!)
Just now, you said that the path of Brother Lin would make overcomers of you.
Brother Lin led for many years. Tell me, are there any overcomers among you?
Can Brother Lin do the work of judgment starting at the house of God?
Is his expression the same as what the Spirit says to the churches?
Is it the word of judging man and purifying man?
Actually, Brother Lin was like us, just a corrupt man.
He's not God incarnate and he has no divine substance.
And so he can't express God's word or do the work of judging and purifying.
So tell me how this man can lead you to be overcomers.
He preached to be regenerated, transformed, conformed and glorified.
Now after so many years, what results have you seen?
No matter how closely his preachings conform to man's imagination,
they're still the knowledge of man and nothing else,
which have nothing to do with Almighty God or with His truth.
Also, Brother Lin didn't experience God's end-time judgment.
He wasn't an overcomer.
So how could he lead others on the path to becoming overcomers?
So Brother Lin's path couldn't help you be an overcomer,
regardless of what you told me.
That is against the fact of God's work, with no proof in God's words.
It's purely meant to deceive man and it's meant to resist God as well.
Everyone, are you still with me?
Yes. Absolutely. I think it makes sense. Yeah.
You seriously believe this guy?
Brother Lin was…
We spent years following Brother Lin's path. Where did it get us?
No one's an overcomer. That's a fact!
Right. Whether one can lead the path to become overcomers
should be judged by results.
You're right.
Could you tell us what the overcomer is?
Yes, please explain it!
Right. (Yes. Please.)
Brothers and sisters,
what does it mean to be an overcomer?
Which aspects of truth should an overcomer have?
Can we see that clearly? (Mm.)
The way mankind sees it,
if he can labor in work for the Lord and keep His name,
he'll be an overcomer in the end.
But that's not right at all.
Let's see what God has to say. He has standards on being an overcomer.
As chapter 14 in Revelation says,
Now let's see what Almighty God tells us. (Mm.)
Yes.
From the words of God we can see that
overcomers are those who follow the Lamb's footsteps,
who experience God's judgment and refinement in the last days,
grasp the truth and obtain knowledge of God, (Mm.)
who revere God and shun evil. (Amen!)
No matter how Christ works and speaks,
they will obey and be faithful to Him, no matter what.
Under the great red dragon's ruthless arrest and persecution,
they still eat and drink God's word, performing their duty as a creature.
Even when they are suffering,
they won't complain and they're faithful till death,
bearing God a beautiful and true testimony.
These are the people made overcomers by God's work in the last days.
These are just the victorious male-children prophesied in the Bible.
I've never thought about that. Yes, they are.
You said that we can seek to become overcomers by following Brother Lin.
Then let me say,
you've followed him for many years,
listening to his biblical knowledge and theologies every day.
What do you know of God's work and disposition? Did he teach you?
Do you know the ways Satan attempts to corrupt mankind?
Have you seen through its evil nature and substance?
Do you hate the great red dragon?
Do you have a firm grasp on how it resists and condemns God whenever it can?
Do you have a true knowledge of your own satanic substance and nature?
Have you overcome the flesh and Satan's influence upon it?
Do you honestly revere and obey God while shunning the temptation of evil?
What do you know of God's disposition? Of His inherent disposition?
If God incarnate expresses the truth,
can you commit to obeying Him simply because you heard His voice?
If you don't have these realities of truth, how can you be overcomers?
Does that make any sense to anyone? (Mm. Yes.)
God incarnate has revealed all of those who don't know God.
The entire truth that God expresses,
reveals all of those who don't love the truth.
Those who don't accept God's work of the last days
are the ones who don't know God,
and the arrogant and self-conceited children of Satan.
How can those people be overcomers?
It's impossible. Wouldn't you say so? (I think I would. Yes.)
Oh, Lord, what they say is reasonable and fully convinces me.
The overcomers are indeed made by God's work of judgment in the last days.
I've spent so many years pursuing the truth
according to the path led by Brother Lin. So many years.
In doing so, I was certain that in the end I would become an overcomer.
It never occurred to me that it could all be untrue.
People lacking a firm knowledge of the truth are easily deceived.
How dangerous this is.
That's it!
We've tried to be overcomers. But now, we know we've made no progress at all,
according to the path shown us, shown us by Brother Lin.
Instead of having true knowledge of God or experiencing the truth of His words,
we're becoming more arrogant,
believing that we're superior in spiritual doctrine,
condescending to those of other beliefs.
In reality, we're merely talking about the doctrines of Brother Lin,
rather than obeying the Lord Jesus' word.
This is where we're wrong.
We're worshiping man, obeying the word of man all the time.
We've revered man without any reverence for God.
And we're ambitious in that we want to be God, be Christ.
Isn't that like the archangel? (Yes.)
Aren't we just a bunch of antichrists?
We're not overcomers.
The path led by Brother Lin doesn't make us become overcomers,
but rather deviates from the Lord's way.
In the end, overcomers are made by God's work of judgment,
and not at all made by man.
Yes. That's right. It makes so much sense.
Yes. If the path Brother Lin led was really to make overcomers,
we should've seen some result after so many years.
At least he should've been one that would've been a start.
Mm. Right. Yes.
But as we know, even Brother Lin himself wasn't raptured alive.
So the path he led must've been the wrong one.
That's obvious. It's so obvious.
In the Local Church, we live a church life.
Regeneration, transformation, conformation and glorification,
these words we shout loud every day.
But so far, we've seen no evidence of this.
Surely, we don't have the Lord's words or His place in our heart.
We've been neglectful in caring for Him.
We have no patience for brothers and sisters.
Instead we envy them. We scheme against them, create conflict.
All we ever wanted is to be enthroned and to rule and become God and Christ.
So what do we expect? How could we be overcomers? (Yes.)
Obviously, man's work can't replace the work of God.
Man thinks they know the Bible, spiritual knowledge and doctrine,
but they still can't do God's work. (Amen.)
If we follow man to the end,
we'll be hypocritical and end up just like the Pharisees,
all arrogant and self-conceited, overbearing antichrists.
Even then, we think we'll be raptured into the kingdom of heaven.
Don't you think we're all dreaming?
