I

The two incarnate fleshes of God

have existed in order to defeat Satan,

and also in order to better save man, in order to better save man.

That’s because the one doing the battle with Satan can only be God,

whether it be the Spirit of God or the incarnate flesh of God,

whether it be the Spirit of God or the incarnate flesh of God.

In short, it cannot be the angels who are doing battle with Satan,

much less can it be man, who has been corrupted by Satan.

The angels are powerless to fight this battle, and man is even more impotent.

As such, if God wishes to work the life of man,

if He wishes to personally come to earth to save man,

then He must personally become flesh—

that is, He must personally assume the flesh, and with His inherent identity

and the work that He must do, come among man and personally save man.

If not, if it were the God’s Spirit or man that did this work,

then nothing would ever come of this battle,

and it would never end, it would never end.

II

The battle with Satan can only be carried out by God Himself;

it would simply be impossible for man to do it.

Man’s duty is to submit and to follow,

for man is unable to do work akin to creating the heavens and earth,

nor, moreover, can he do the work of battling Satan.

Man can only satisfy the Creator under the leadership of God Himself,

through which Satan is defeated; this is the only thing that man can do.

And so, every time a new battle commences,

which is to say, every time the work of a new age begins,

this work is personally done by God Himself,

through which He leads the entire age

and opens up a new path for the whole of mankind.

The dawn of each new age is a new start in the battle with Satan,

through which man enters a newer, more beautiful realm,

man enters a newer, more beautiful realm,

and a new age that is personally led by God Himself.

The dawn of each new age is a new start in the battle with Satan,

through which man enters a newer, more beautiful realm,

man enters a newer, more beautiful realm,

and a new age that is personally led by God Himself.
