In coming among man today, God’s purpose is none other than

to transform people’s thoughts and spirits,

as well as God’s image in their hearts

that they have had for millions of years.

He will take this opportunity to make man perfect.

He will change people’s knowledge of Him and their attitude toward Him,

allowing man to make a triumphant new beginning in knowing God,

and in this way achieve the renewal and transformation of the human spirit.

Pruning and discipline are the means,

while conquest and renewal are the goals.

God’s eternal intention

is to dispel man’s superstitious thoughts about the vague God,

and lately this has also become a matter of urgency to Him.

Would that people might take the long view of this.

Change the way in which each person experiences

so that this urgent intention of God may soon reach fruition

and so that the last stage of God’s work on earth

may be perfectly brought to completion.

Give God the loyalty that it behooves you to give Him,

and for the last time render comfort to God’s heart.
