Diary of a Christian: Learning the Lesson of Obedience

Friday, January 5, 2018 Sunny

Today was a day I’ll never forget. The person in charge told me that the church urgently needed a sister to perform hosting duties and asked if I’d be willing. When I heard this, my heart was in turmoil and I couldn’t calm myself down. I never thought I would be asked to perform this duty, and the discontent I felt inside came straight out: “How can you arrange for me to do hosting duties? Elderly brothers and sisters are suited to do that kind of duty. Though my caliber may be lacking, it’s not so poor that I’m only fit to do hosting duties! I’ve been a leader for years and wherever I go, brothers and sisters host me and revolve around me, and yet now I’m actually expected to host others in turn? Don’t you know anything about how to use people? Won’t this be like using a huge crane to move chicken feathers, or putting fine timber to some trivial use?

Christian Short Sketch "A Warning From History" (English Skit)

Two thousand years ago, when the Lord Jesus appeared and worked, the Pharisees clung to the laws and condemned His work, saying that His work went beyond the Scriptures. To protect their status and livelihood, they strove with all their might to stop people from seeking the Lord Jesus' work, and joined forces with the Roman government to nail Him to the cross. In the last days, as the Lord Jesus again appears in the flesh to do work, the leaders of the religious world repeat the historical tragedy of the Pharisees' resistance of Lord Jesus. How do they resist God's work of the last days?

English Christian Skit "Starving for Fear of Choking"

In the matter of welcoming the Lord's coming, there are some in the religious world who close their door and wait alone for fear of being deceived by false Christs. They starve themselves for fear of choking, and cling to the words, "Then if any man shall say to you, See, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; so that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect" (Mat 24:23-24). They think anyone who preaches God's gospel of the last daysor testifies the Lord's return is false, and utterly refuse to hear, see, or come into contact with them, but they ignore how to welcome the Lord's coming. The protagonist of this skit is one such person …

The Hymn of God's Word The Sighing of the Almighty

The Hymn of God's Word The Sighing of the Almighty 

 Ah … ah … 

I 

The Almighty looks around at the mankind deeply afflicted. He hears the wailing of those who suffer, sees the shamelessness of those afflicted, and feels the dread and helplessness of the mankind who's lost salvation. They reject His care, walk their own path, and avoid the searching of His eyes. They'd rather taste all the pains of the deep sea, along with the enemy. They'd rather taste all the pains of the deep sea, along with the enemy. The sighing of the Almighty can no more be heard by any one. The hands of the Almighty no longer want to touch, His hands no longer want to touch this miserable mankind. Ah … ah …

A Hymn of God's Words God Judges and Perfects Man With His Words in the Last Days

God became flesh in the last days mainly to speak, to show what man's life needs and what he should enter, show man God's deeds and His omnipotence, show man God's wondrousness and His wisdom. Through the many ways in which God speaks His words, man sees God's supremacy, magnitude, sees God's humility and hiddenness, that the supreme God can become the least of all. God uses words, not signs and wonders to perfect man in the last days. Words expose, they judge and chastise, and make man perfect in every way. In the words of God, man comes to see God's loveliness and His wisdom, man understands God's disposition. Through God's words, he sees the deeds of God.
