Question 1: The apostle Paul once said, “I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: From now on there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness …” (2Ti 4:7–8). Therefore, acting in accordance with Paul’s words means we are doing God’s will. In that case, we will definitely be able to enter the kingdom of heaven and gain rewards.

Answer: As to the question of what kinds of people can enter the kingdom of heaven, the Lord Jesus said long ago, “but he that does the will of My Father which is in heaven.” This completely shows God’s substance of righteousness and holiness. People of Satan, filthy and corrupt, cannot enter the kingdom of heaven. However, Paul said that fighting the good fight, finishing his course and keeping the faith would allow him to enter the kingdom of heaven and be rewarded. According to Paul, as long as man labors for the Lord, they can enter the kingdom of heaven, even if they do not follow God’s words or have not attained sanctity. Then how should God’s righteousness and holiness be reflected? When Paul said this, he was opposing God. He was openly denying the Lord Jesus’ words and interrupting and disturbing God’s work! Could it be that fighting the good fight and running the course men are supposed to run is doing the heavenly Father’s will? Keeping the Lord Jesus’ name without betraying the Lord, is that doing the heavenly Father’s will? Doing the heavenly Father’s will is following God’s words, God’s commandments and God’s instructions. If people do not practice according to the Lord’s words, they can’t be doing the heavenly Father’s will, no matter what they do or how they suffer. What Paul said was completely based on his own conceptions and imaginations and mixed with his own ambitions and opinions. This is enough to prove that Paul was not a person that did the heavenly Father’s will. If he was doing God’s will, why didn’t he lead the followers to obey the Lord Jesus’ words? Why did he just throw out an opinion like that, one that was completely against the Lord Jesus’ words? Why did he work against the Lord Jesus? He misled and deceived others with his own absurd conceptions, He prevented others from walking in the Lord Jesus’ way, and made His words empty and meaningless. He made the believers listen to him and betray the Lord. This proves that Paul was not someone who pursued the truth or followed God’s will. Brothers and sisters, when we pursue entry into the kingdom of heaven, we must use the Lord Jesus’ words as the standard because the Lord Jesus is the King of the kingdom of heaven; Only His words are the truth; only they have authority. Only the Lord Jesus determines what kinds of people can enter the kingdom of heaven, and Paul was only an apostle who spread the gospel. He was not Christ. His words are not the truth. Therefore, his words do not hold weight. The Lord Jesus determines whether or not Paul can enter the kingdom of heaven, so how is Paul qualified to determine whether other people can enter?

Previous: Question 14: Many brothers and sisters worship the pastors and elders in the heart. They do not understand why, although the pastors and elders often interpret the Bible and exalt the Bible, they still hate the truth and resist and condemn Almighty God incarnate. Interpreting the Bible and exalting the Bible, is that the same as bearing witness to the Lord and exalting the Lord?

Next: Question 2: You say Paul’s words are not the truth. Then why are his words in the Bible? Paul’s words are written in the Bible. Therefore, they were inspired by God; they represent God’s words. We should pursue them!

Question 2: What’s the difference between God’s work and man’s work? And what’s the essential difference between God incarnate and the people who God uses?

Almighty God says, “The work of God Himself involves the work of all of mankind, and it also represents the work of the entire era. That is to say, God’s own work represents the movement and trend of all of the work of the Holy Spirit, whereas the work of the apostles follows God’s own work and does not lead the era, nor does it represent the working trend of the Holy Spirit in the entire era. They only do the work man ought to do, which does not at all involve the management work. God’s own work is the project within the management work. Man’s work is only the duty of men being used and bears no relation to the management work”

Question 1: In all my years of faith, despite knowing that the Lord Jesus is God’s incarnation, I didn’t understand the truth of the incarnation. If the Lord’s appearance in the second coming is similar to how the Lord Jesus was incarnated as the Son of man to do His work, then we’ll be unable to recognize the Lord Jesus, we’ll be unable to greet the Lord’s coming. I believe that the incarnation is a great mystery. Few are able to truly understand the truth of the incarnation. Please commune with us on this issue, what exactly is the incarnation.

Almighty God says, “The meaning of incarnation is that God appears in the flesh, and He comes to work among man of His creation in the image of a flesh. So, for God to be incarnated, He must first be flesh, flesh with normal humanity; this, at the very least, must be true. In fact, the implication of God’s incarnation is that God lives and works in the flesh, God in His very essence becomes flesh, becomes a man.”
