Among all these words, none are more unforgettable than those of today. God’s words previously exposed the states of man or disclosed the mysteries of heaven, yet this present utterance is unlike those of the past. It does not mock or satirize, but is something completely unexpected: It is God sitting down and calmly talking with people. What is His purpose? What do you see when God says: “Today, I have begun new work above the universes, causing the people on earth to have a new beginning and asking them all to move out from My house. And because people always like to indulge themselves, I advise them to show a bit more self-restraint, and to not always disturb My work”? And what is this “new beginning” that God speaks of? God has spoken similar words before, advising people to leave, but according to God’s original intention, those words were used to try people’s faith. So today, when He speaks with a different tone, is He being genuine or false? Before, people did not know the trials of which God spoke. It was only through the step of work of the service-doers that their eyes saw, and they personally experienced, God’s trials. Thus, from that time onward, thanks to the example of Peter’s hundreds of trials, people have often fallen into the deviation of thinking that “this is a trial from God.” Furthermore, very few of the things spoken in God’s words have come upon people as concrete facts. As such, people have sunk ever deeper into blind beliefs about God’s trials, and so in all the words spoken by God, they have never believed this to be the work of the facts carried out by God; instead, they have believed that God, with nothing else to do, is specifically using words to try people. It is amid such trials, which are hopeless and yet seem to offer hope, that people have followed, and so after God said “all who remain will very likely meet with disaster,” people have still followed attentively, and have had no intention of leaving. People have followed amid such illusions, and not one of them has dared be sure that there is no hope—this is part of the proof of God’s victory. God’s viewpoint shows that He maneuvers all things to render service to Him, and that harnessing this human illusion, God impels them not to leave Him, regardless of the time or place. So during this step it is through people’s imperfect motivations that God makes them bear a step of testimony for Him, and herein lies the profound meaning of God’s words: “I have gained a portion of people.” Satan uses man’s motivations to cause disruptions, whereas God makes use of man’s motivations to render service—this is the true meaning of God’s words that “people imagine that they can worm their way in, but when they hand Me their false entry passes, I cast them into the pit of fire there and then, and seeing their own ‘heart’s blood’ in flames, they lose hope.” God maneuvers all things to render service to Him, and so He does not skirt the various opinions of man, but boldly tells people to leave; this is the wondrousness and wisdom of God’s work—combining honest words and the method into one, leaving people dizzy and at a loss. From this it can be seen that God really is asking people to move out from His home, that this is not some sort of trial, and God takes this opportunity to say: “Yet I also tell people that when they fail to gain blessings, no one may complain about Me.” God’s words are a mixture of truth and falsehood, and no one can see through them; yet God uses this opportunity to stabilize people, to strip them of their desire to leave. Thus, if one day they are cursed, they will have been forewarned by God’s words, just as people say that “the words that are unpleasant to hear are the good ones.” Today, people love God with complete sincerity, and so in words that they couldn’t tell were genuine or false, they were conquered and came to love God, which is why God said: “I have already accomplished My great undertaking.” When God says: “I hope they find their own path to survival. I am powerless in this,” this is the reality of God’s utterance of all these words—yet people do not think so; instead, they have always followed without paying the slightest attention to God’s words. As such, when God says: “In the future, there will no longer be any words between us, we will no longer have anything to talk about, and will not interfere with each other, but each go our own way,” these words are reality, and not in the least bit tainted. Whatever people think, such is the “unreasonableness” of God. God has already borne this step of testimony before Satan, and God said that He shall make all people not leave Him, regardless of the time or place—and so this step of work has been completed. God pays no heed to whatever complaints people voice, yet God has spoken in advance, and so people are left helpless, forced to swallow their anger and hold their tongues. The battle between God and Satan is entirely based on man. People have no autonomy; they are well and truly puppets, while God and Satan are the ones who pull the strings from behind the scenes. When God uses people to bear witness for Him, He does all He can think of, everything possible, to use people to render service for Him, causing people to be manipulated by Satan, and, moreover, directed by God. And when the testimony that God wishes to be borne has finished, He tosses people to one side and leaves them suffering, while acting as if He has nothing to do with them. When He again wishes to use people, He picks them up once more and puts them to use, and people have not the slightest awareness of this. They are merely like an ox or horse used as its master pleases, and none of them have any personal autonomy. This might sound a little sad, but regardless of whether or not people have any autonomy, rendering service to God is an honor, not something to become upset about. It is as if God ought to act in this way. Is being able to satisfy the Almighty’s need not something to be proud of? So, what do you think? Have you ever set your resolution to render service for God? Could it be that you still wish to wield a little power in search of your own freedom?

Regardless, all that God does is good and worthy of emulation, and man and God are, after all, different. Upon this basis, you should love God with a human heart regardless of whether God has any regard for your love. God’s words show that there is also great sadness within God’s heart. It is only because of God’s words that people are refined. Yet this work did, after all, happen yesterday—so, what exactly will God do next? This remains a secret to this day, and thus people are incapable of understanding or fathoming it, and can but sing along to whatever music God plays. That said, all that God says is real, and it all comes true—this is without doubt!
