The words of this place are not such as teach the knowledge of man’s intellect and mind, like the learning of worldly scholarship, wherein one may comfortably see, hear, understand, study, and acquire through education and instruction as men do. If I were to speak of the things I have seen and heard, they are indeed found within the words of the Scriptures, yet they are testimonies and experiences so difficult to comprehend that no one hath ever truly experienced them. Likewise, if one knew how these writings were penned, they are matters that, by human common sense and experience, could neither be understood nor comprehended even when seen. Thus, these writings, recorded from all that I have heard and spoken plainly and without reserve—concerning all things I desired to know, from the creation, the kingdom of heaven, and God’s providence over this earth, unto all ideals and mysteries—through conversations with Christ or God, as though face to face with a friend, asking and answering in dialogue, are by no means things learned or acquired by the intellect or mind of man. They are the labour of many years, prepared in the company of God’s grace and the holy wisdom of God, which is learned, understood, and realized by the heart.
Several years ago, numerous records—amounting to 150 entries—of answers I had given to countless questions of struggles or inner conflicts on the internet were deleted, and more than 30 posts I had uploaded to an internet community were also removed. I had never once engaged in slander or profanity, and I had merely responded to many churches, pastors, and believers with answers concerning true salvation and righteous faith, based solely on the Word, through teachings, reproofs, and instructions; yet, without any proper explanation or excuse, those responsible pastors, deeming it mere criticism of Christianity, mercilessly deleted a vast number of my responses. Even the contents they had once accepted were erased, stripping away the right of believers to see, hear, and know. It may perhaps be natural that those who cannot discern what is true and what is false would scrutinize and delete my writings. If they were truly faithful shepherds of Christ, they ought to lead believers toward perfect discernment and a standard of righteousness by allowing them to see and hear more, guiding them into true faith through complete discernment; yet instead, these pastors, swayed by selfish desires and interpreting according to their own tastes, present their own sermons and doctrines—twisted by their own stubbornness and falsehood—as though they were true, and thus unconditionally label as heretical and exclude any reproof or instruction concerning their corruption, depravity, lawlessness, lies, and wickedness.
This arrogant and resolute form of rejection from those who call themselves shepherds leading believers shows that they themselves, unable to escape the sins from which they ought to be reborn, teach regeneration while remaining blind guides leading the blind—an utter ignorance and arrogance. A true shepherd would lead believers to see more and hear more, enabling them to clearly discern what is truly God’s Word and truth, fostering in them a sound judgment; that would be the proper teaching. However, failing even to keep the commandment of the Apostles’ Creed they so often recite—‘the communion of saints’—they forbid their flock from hearing other churches and sermons beyond their own, treating them as heretical or hypocritical, not for the sake of fostering righteous discernment in believers, but out of fear that their own congregation might be taken by other churches. These are the ones who block the eyes and ears of believers; I ask whether such people are truly apostles of Christ and shepherds of God. If you believe the contents and words here to be true and truthful, then spread them!
The Word is God. To proclaim this Word is to spread the light of the Word, which illuminates the conscience, across the whole earth. By spreading the writings here, you are not merely a simple person but become a witness of the kingdom, testifying to the path of salvation and the kingdom of heaven. If, even after reading these words, you still believe that your own assertions, spoken only with your lips and theories, are correct, I hope you will turn back and reconsider; but if you are someone seeking a pretext to oppose the contents of this Word, then leave this place quickly. Those who fail to recall that, even in the days of Christ, the greatest heretics and antichrists were the churches of God that ruled the world at that time, along with the pastors, apostles, and believers who claimed to believe in God, are blind to this truth. Before God and Christ, the greatest adversaries and enemies were not the unbelieving people of the world, but those who called themselves believers in God and Christ and prided themselves on their faith. Likewise, those who fail to remember that it was out of their own zeal, will, and pride in believing in God that they persecuted and killed Christ and His disciples are merely foolish ones whose unwavering confidence, pride, and blind faith have become their word and belief—blind guides who can only misuse the Word as a means to justify themselves. Thus, today’s religion and faith have become a world where too many believers forget the precious opportunity to use God’s Word as a lamp to illuminate all their sins and darkness, and as a mirror to reflect their own form and faith, following the perfect will of God.
Since the purpose of countless believers in trusting God is solely to lead a happy life and achieve their goals, they rationalize their own desires, confidence, and pride as faith, casting aside God’s holy will and Word; instead, their own selves become the center, and their own desires, confidence, and pride, which they control, become their faith—a perverse faith that dominates most of them. Pursuing a broad and smooth path, chasing only their own happiness, success, and desires, they rationalize a faith that follows the love of the cross with mere words and theories, excusing it as a faith of works, turning it into a faith of mere hearing; unable to recognize their own pride and stubbornness, their lives, increasingly weary and defiled by the ways of the world, bear witness to this fruit, and believers abound only in growing poverty and affliction. Thus, most people are following a fruitless and vain faith—one that does not reflect upon themselves in the light of the Word, but instead is built solely upon sermons and theories of men who rationalize sin and distort Scripture. As they increasingly justify their own sins with bold passion, conviction, and pride, their consciences grow more desolate, leading them into a more wretched and impoverished spiritual state. Since their standards, rooted only in pursuing their own desires, satisfaction, and worldly goals, have no connection to salvation, they fall into a faith unable to break free from the evil habit of sinning again despite constant repentance and reflection; claiming their zeal, confidence, and pride as faith, they misuse the Scriptures to rationalize their lies and stubbornness with interpretations and explanations they call the Word—thus, caught in endless cycles of sinning and futile repentance based on self-interest, they become believers tamed by sin and greed, blind and deaf to the Word that pierces their conscience.
What use is it to teach such blind ones? Is it not like casting pearls before swine? This place is the Word that reveals our darkness, shame, and sins, which we fail to fully follow, to establish our conscience. What use is it to shine light on the blind who cannot see or hear, whose darkness veils their sight? The contents of the Word here belong to those who desire to see, the wisdom of those who seek to follow the Word, the truth for those who wish to restore the eyes and ears of their conscience, and the life for those who seek the grace worthy of reaching the kingdom of heaven. Please, have the eyes and ears of a good conscience that can fully discern good from evil! No longer be ensnared by the deceit of turning your zeal, confidence, and pride—which rationalize your sins by chasing worldly desires and ideals—into faith! No longer desolate your good conscience with the zeal, confidence, and pride that justify your sins and greed! The true Word and truth worthy of leading to salvation are never the knowledge and wisdom seen and heard by human intellect and mind. Awakening, zeal, and pride are merely human emotions that sway with self-interest, nothing but human arrogance. Faith in God is a faith united with love, possessed only by those who do not pursue their own greed, desires, and ideals, but follow the holy will of God and the hope of Christ, pursuing the sacrificial love of the cross.
Because they try to serve God alongside the world and material things, their pride—driven by the notion of rationalizing their greed and sins in pursuit of worldly things—rules them; unable to recognize their own sins, their zeal, tamed by their pride, and their selfish judgments aimed only at their own happiness and success, have become their faith and word for most believers. Do not be deceived by teachings and learning that, in trying to serve God alongside the world and material things, increase only excuses, lies, and stubbornness based on self-interest; forsake the world and the flesh, and become true Christians who bear the perfect fruit of Christ, following the love of the cross with the hope of Christ, fulfilling the complete fruit of Christ. Our tongues already testify that the day of judgment is not far off, saying, “The last days, the last days”; therefore, heed the Word that says not to waste time, for this is God’s Word to us all. A faith that merely attends church, knows only theories, seeks only its own gain, and lacks the example and model of light and salt is a dead faith that cannot become a child of light. Because they regard their own will, zeal, confidence, and pride as faith, without the example and model of following the love of the cross, they desolate even their own conscience, dishonor God—the source of love—and the love of the cross, and distort God’s Word by interpreting and explaining it selectively according to their own desires and greed; now is the time to soberly examine whether such a faith has become the greatest adversary before God.
There are many churchgoers who prioritize words and theories, but no Christians who follow the love of the cross; there are many pastors who prioritize words and sermons, but no true shepherds who care for the flock by following the love of the cross. Therefore, it is said that on the day of judgment, He will destroy all churches, and both shepherds and sheep will be distinguished—those Christians with the fruit and testimony of following the love of the cross, the wheat and fruit of Christ, from those churchgoers who pursue only their own greed with words and theories, like fruitless tares destined for destruction and judgment; now is the time to soberly discern whether this Word applies to me. Is a beautiful temple of the heart, bearing the love of the cross worthy of becoming a perfect child of God, being built in my heart? Or am I, with mere words, repeating meaningless repentance while ruminating on recurring sins, desolating my conscience in the bondage of repeated sin, rationalizing lies, pride, and stubbornness with excuses and pretexts, claiming my zeal, confidence, and pride as faith? It is time to soberly reflect.
How can those who sin, regret, repent, and yet turn back to sin again in an evil cycle be called reborn, recipients of the Holy Spirit, anointed, gifted, or saved? How can those unable to escape the evil habit of committing sins equivalent to murder as easily as eating a meal, based on self-interest, be said to possess the faith of Christ united with His love? Salvation is not a broad and smooth path obtained merely by believing and confessing, as many believers today claim with words alone. It is found only in those who forsake all their worldly desires, ideals, and greed, offering even their lives in sacrifice, with the suffering, labor, and sacrifice of Christ piercing their bones and engraved in their hearts, obtained through tears and compassion by following the love of the cross, becoming like the holy nature of God—the source of beautiful love; these alone are true Christians. Only those who follow the love, sacrifice, and suffering of the cross, following the example of Christ, can obtain the glory worthy of becoming perfect children of God and the grace worthy of becoming the perfect people of Christ. Like the pastors and believers today who claim to believe in God, calling only on His name while forsaking His holy will and commandments, rationalizing their pride, stubbornness, and lies, treating their zeal, confidence, and pride as though they were the true faith of Christ, and unable to escape the path of sin that accumulates only sin and greed—these are never true Christians.
The zeal, confidence, and pride that deceive even their own good conscience based on self-interest ultimately desolate their conscience, stripping away the eyes and ears of conscience that can rightly judge and establish standards. There are hardly any pastors or believers who realize that their own passion, conviction, determination, and pride—when they silently condone or rationalize even the slightest harm, disturbance, or unease to a good conscience—are, before God, the greatest devil, the greatest heresy, the greatest enemy, and the greatest Antichrist. Thus, the zeal, confidence, and pride aroused by momentary emotions and teachings they see and hear are merely deceit, vanity, and delusion that swallow their good conscience—nothing of the faith, hope, love, or salvation of a Christian following the love of the cross. Rather, they become adversaries to the love of the cross and enemies of the Word, increasing only excuses and pretexts, piling up pride, lies, and stubbornness to rationalize their sins. Therefore, spread these words! This is our mission, the way we approach God, and our glory in participating in the suffering of Christ. Thus, it is said, “Blessed are they who participate in the suffering of Christ through the Word.” Become one who longs for and follows the beautiful fruit of Christ by pursuing the love of the cross!
