The Parable of the Lost Sheep

(Mat 18:12-14) How think you? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, does he not leave the ninety and nine, and goes into the mountains, and seeks that which is gone astray? And if so be that he find it, truly I say to you, he rejoices more of that sheep, than of the ninety and nine which went not astray. Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.

Eastern Lightning | The Recitation of Almighty God's Word "The Sighing of the Almighty" (Excerpt, Stage Version)

Eastern Lightning | Almighty God says, "As dawn arrives, a morning star arises from the east. It is a star never there before. It lights up the still starry skies and ignites the extinguished light in the hearts of people. People are no longer lonely, because of this light, the light that shines upon you and upon others. But only you remain soundly asleep in the dark night. You are unable to hear the sound, nor see the light, unable to notice the advent of a new heaven and a new earth, a new age. Because your father tells you, ‘My child, do not get up, it is still early. The outdoors are cold, stay inside, lest the sword and spear pierce your eyes.’ You believe only in your father’s exhortation, because you believe that father is correct as father is older than you, and that father truly loves you.

Eastern Lightning | Praise Song "Through Thick and Thin, Faithful Till Death"

I

From heaven to the earth, hiding in the flesh. Working among men, through winds and rains. Taking a rough path, open a new age. To redeem mankind, lay down Your life and shed blood. Wind and rain, so many years. Forsaken by every man. Humble and hidden, enduring all along. Humble and hidden, enduring all along.

II

Sacrifice for Your will; this is my wish. Though flesh's in trials, stronger is my will. Love You more intensely; bitterness most sweet. Eyes blurred by tears, but my life is so bright. Broken and smashed time after time, care about Your will even more. Faithful till death, through thick and thin. Faithful till death, thick and thin.

Beautiful darling, Your love surrounds my heart.

Though I rise alone in the early morning, I feel enjoyment when meditating on God’s word.

The tender words are like a loving mother, the words of judgment like a severe father. (Hey….)

Eastern Lightning | Choir Song | Music Concert "Chinese Choir 7th Performance"

God created everything and governs everything; at the same time, He rules over and supplies all things. This is God’s true identity: the unique God Himself. God is in heaven and also on earth. He can both ascend to the highest place and humble Himself by assuming flesh. Since man was corrupted by Satan, God has never left man, but has been taking good care of, showing concern for, and watching over man. To save man from the influence of Satan thoroughly, God carries out the six-thousand-year management plan, does three stages of work, and changes ages by different names. In the last days, God is no longer called Jehovah or Jesus, but is called the powerful Almighty God Himself. He will use this name to conclude the entire age and restore His original status in the hearts of all creatures. He will make the whole of mankind see His true face and acknowledge that He is the God of all creatures.

Eastern Lightning | Almighty God's Word "The Creator’s Sincere Feelings Toward Mankind" (Selected Passage)

Almighty God says, "People often say that it is not an easy thing to know God. I, however, say that knowing God is not a difficult matter at all, for God frequently allows man to witness His deeds. God has never ceased His dialogue with mankind; He has never concealed Himself from man, nor has He hidden Himself. His thoughts, His ideas, His words and His deeds are all revealed to mankind. Therefore, so long as man wishes to know God, he can come to understand and know Him through all sorts of means and methods. The reason why man blindly thinks that God has intentionally avoided him, that God has intentionally hidden Himself from humanity, that God has no intention of allowing man to understand and know Him, is that he does not know who God is, nor does he wish to understand God;even more so, he is not concerned with the Creator’s thoughts, words or deeds…. Truthfully speaking, if one only uses their idle time to focus upon and understand the Creator’s words or deeds, and pay a little attention to the Creator’s thoughts and the voice of His heart, it will not be difficult for them to realize that the Creator’s thoughts, words and deeds are visible and transparent. Likewise, it will take little effort to realize that the Creator is among man at all times, that He is always in conversation with man and the entirety of creation, and that He is performing new deeds every day.

The Chinese Choir Episode 13 of the Church of Almighty God comprises various performances like Peking Opera, rock, Haozi, Latin dance, and animation. It vividly presents the journey where man, though corrupted and deceived by Satan, receives God’s salvation and returns to Him after rejecting Satan.

In the old world ruled by Satan, man is corrupt and depraved, struggling painfully in sin. Worse than that, God’s chosen people are suffering from suppression and slaughter. The human world is like hell, utterly dark and extremely miserable. Just when Satan, the great red dragon, commits evil in a rampant way and resists God to the utmost, the lightning flashes forth from the East: Almighty God, Christ of the last days, comes to earth personally and expresses the words, bringing the true light, wrath, and judgment. In God’s majestic judgment, Satan is revealed in its true form and reduced to ashes by God’s wrath. Taking God’s word as the sharp sword, God’s chosen people are no longer controlled or manipulated by Satan and finally defeat it. They ultimately regain the sanctity they once possessed and return to God’s throne, singing and dancing with joy to celebrate the complete accomplishment of God’s work!

He has worked in the construction and decoration industry for fifteen years. As to how such jerry-built buildings as “the leaning building” and “the falling building” were produced, he knows it better than anyone else.In this dark society where if one doesn’t practice the “unspoken rule” of “collusion between officials and businessmen,” he’ll have no business, in order to survive, he helplessly followed the evil trends of the society. Offering bribes, indulging himself, and acting in collusion with the government officials, he lost himself and lost his character and dignity. The pricks of his conscious accompanied him everyday, and made him struggle painfully.…Later, Almighty God’s end-time gospel came upon him. Through reading God’s words, his soul revived. Under the judgment and chastisement of God’s word and God’s discipline, he gradually gets to break free from the bondage of satanic poisons, be an honest person according to God’s word and the truth, live in God’s blessing and keeping, and walk on the bright right way of human life….

Eastern Lightning | The Hymn of God's Word "The Work of God Continues to Advance"

I

The work of God continues to advance;

although the purpose remains unchanged,

the means of His work constantly change,

and hence so do those who follow Him.

The more work that God performs,

the more man knows, knows Him completely,

the more man’s disposition changes

along with His work accordingly.

The work of God continues to advance;

His work is never old and always new.

He never repeats work of old,

only work never done before is what He shall do.

Eastern Lightning | The Hymn of God's Word "Do You Wish to Know the Root of Why the Pharisees Opposed Jesus?"

I

Do you wanna know why the Pharisees opposed Jesus?

Do you wanna know what their substance is?

They were full of fantasies about the Messiah,

only believing in His coming, not seeking truth of life till today.

They’re still waiting for Him, still not knowing the way of truth or life.

II

Do you wanna know why these silly folk didn’t gain God’s blessing?

Do you wonder how they failed to behold the Messiah?

They opposed Jesus, not knowing He spoke the way of truth,

didn’t understand the Messiah or the Holy Spirit’s work, never seen or been with Him.

They paid empty tributes to His name and all the price to resist Him.

Eastern Lightning | A Hymn of God's Words "God's Love and Essence Has Always Been Selfless"

Never disclosing or showing His suffering. God, He endures, waiting in silence. Not cold or numb, not a sign of weakness. God's essence and His love are always selfless. God gives His best, His best side He gives. The best things, very best things, He gives. For all mankind, He suffers; He suffers, bearing quietly. Quietly He gives, He gives His best.

But You have never departed from me.

You led me through many hardships, You kept me through many dangers.

Now I know that You have loved me.

How Satan uses knowledge to corrupt man (Satan uses fame and gain to control man’s thoughts)

Almighty God says :"Though many people believe in God, few understand what faith in God means, and what they must do to be after God’s heart. This is because, though people are familiar with the word “God” and phrases such as “the work of God,” they do not know God, much less do they know His work. No wonder, then, that all those who do not know God are possessed of a muddled belief. People do not take belief in God seriously because believing in God is too unfamiliar, too strange for them. In this way, they fall short of the demands of God. In other words, if people do not know God, do not know His work, then they are not fit for God’s use, much less can they fulfill the desire of God. “Belief in God” means believing that there is a God; this is the simplest concept of faith in God. What’s more, believing that there is a God is not the same as truly believing in God;

“I am the way, the truth, and the life …” (Jhn 14:6).

“Sanctify them through your truth: your word is truth” (Jhn 17:17).

“He answered and said to them, Well has Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me. However, in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. For laying aside the commandment of God, you hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things you do. And he said to them, Full well you reject the commandment of God, that you may keep your own tradition. … Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which you have delivered: and many such like things do you” (Mak 7:6-9, 13).

A piece of truth can let all of humanity survive for thousands of years, and truth is the life of God Himself, representing His own disposition, representing His own substance, representing everything within Him.
