103 The Work to Manage Man Is the Work to Defeat Satan
Verse 1
All of God’s work, whether judgment or chastisement,
is directed at Satan; it is to save humans, to beat Satan.
God’s work has one objective: to fight Satan till the end.
God won’t rest till victory.
Verse 2
Because God’s work is directed at Satan,
and because those corrupted are under Satan’s domain,
if God did not start a fight against Satan,
or cause man to break with it, they could never be gained.
Pre-chorus
If man were held by Satan, and if they weren’t gained,
it’d prove Satan unbeaten, it has not been defeated.
Chorus
The substance of God’s 6,000-year work
is the battle against the great red dragon,
and the work of managing mankind
is also the work of beating Satan.
Verse 3
God has battled for 6,000 years
and worked to bring man to a new realm,
one where Satan is conquered, man will be free.
Each stage is aligned with real needs
and requirements of man, so Satan God can defeat.
Pre-chorus
If man were held by Satan, and if they weren’t gained,
it’d prove Satan unbeaten, it has not been defeated.
Chorus
The substance of God’s 6,000-year work
is the battle against the great red dragon,
and the work of managing mankind
is also the work of beating Satan.
Bridge
In God’s 6,000-year management plan,
in the first stage He did the work of the law.
In stage two was the work of Age of Grace.
Then He conquers mankind in the third stage.
This work is directed at the extent
to which Satan has corrupted mankind.
Defeating Satan is what this work aims,
and all these three stages are for this sake.
Chorus
The substance of God’s 6,000-year work
is the battle against the great red dragon,
and the work of managing mankind
is also the work of beating Satan.
