The outcomes of all things will have run their course, God's work will reach its end, His management plan will come to its close, and He will rest. God won't be happy for any person, nor will He be sad, or weep, or shed tears for any person. Of course, He'll also not rejoice and be glad that any person survives, or that any person is able to become a master of all things. Why is that? God has expended too much, for too long, for the sake of this humankind, and He needs to rest. He needs to close the book on His six-thousand-year management plan, and He'll no longer exert any mental efforts, or plan anything, or say any words to man or do any work on man. He'll hand over the work of the future and the days to come to the masters of the next age.

What is it I am telling you, then? It's that you should pursue the truth. Don't muddle through your days; it won't do to be muddleheaded. That will be the ruin of you. If there comes a day when God no longer remembers any of your expenditures, and no longer cares what path you walk, or what your outcome will be, at that time your outcome will truly be set. What is it you must do now? That is, while God's heart still toils for mankind, while He's still making plans for mankind, while He still feels sorrow and concern for every move made by mankind, you must make your choice and determine the goal and direction of your pursuit as soon as possible. Don't wait until the day of God's rest has arrived to make your plans, or only truly feel sorry, regretful, and deeply grieved and remorseful at that point—then, it will all be too late, no person will be able to save you, and neither will God.

This is because at that time—at that moment when God's plan truly ends, when He draws a full stop behind it, when He closes the book on it—He will work no longer. God needs rest; He needs to enjoy the fruits born of His six-thousand-year management plan, and enjoy all things being managed for Him by the human beings who remain. What God wants to enjoy is the sight of those human beings managing all things in an orderly manner according to the rules and laws He established, according to the laws of the four seasons, all things, and mankind which He created, without going against anything He wills or anything He wishes. God wants to enjoy His rest, He wants to enjoy solace, and then He will no longer worry about mankind or do anything for their sake. That day will soon come.
