I

God hopes that more people will be able to examine it carefully

when faced with His utterances and His work,

and treat this important message with earnestness and piety.

Do not tread in the footsteps of those who are punished

and, even more than this, do not be like Paul—

who clearly knew the true way but knowingly defied it—

and lose the sin offering.

God does not want more people to be punished,

but instead hopes for more people to be saved;

He hopes for more people to keep up with His footsteps

and hopes for them to enter into His kingdom.

II

God treats all people righteously;

no matter your age, how senior you are

or even how much suffering you have been through,

how much suffering you have been through,

God’s righteous disposition

is forever, forever unchanged in the face of these things.

God does not treat anybody with high regard,

nor does He favor anybody.

His attitude toward people is based on

whether or not they can accept the truth

and accept His new work by relinquishing all things.

If you can comprehend His new work

and comprehend the truth that He expresses,

then you will be able to gain God’s salvation.

You will be able to gain God’s salvation.
