In Believing in God, You Should Establish a Normal Relationship With God

Relevant Words of God:

In your faith in God, at the very least you should make sure you have a normal relationship with God. Without a normal relationship with God, you lose the meaning of your belief in God. Establishing a normal relationship with God is totally dependent upon quieting your heart before God. A normal relationship with God means not doubting or denying any of God’s work, but being able to obey God’s work, it means having the right motivations before God, not thinking for yourself, it means putting the interests of the house of God first no matter what you’re doing, and accepting being looked upon by God, and obeying the arrangements of God. It means being able to quiet your heart before God in all you do, and even when you don’t understand God’s will, still performing your duty and responsibilities as best you can; when God’s will is made clear to you, then it is not late to abide by it in your practice. When your relationship with God is normal, your relationship with people will be normal. All is built upon the foundation of God’s words: Through eating and drinking the words of God, you must practice according to what God asks, you must put right your views, you must not do things that oppose God or interfere with the church, or do things that have no benefit to the lives of your brothers and sisters, or say words that are unedifying to others, or do anything reprehensible; all that you do must be bright and honest, and able to be brought before God. Although there will be times when your flesh is weak, you must be able to put the interests of the house of God first, you must not seek personal profit, and you must be able to act with righteousness. If you are able to practice in this way, then your relationship with God will be normal.

Are You Aware of the Biggest Deviation From Investigating the True Way?

I have on occasion heard conversations that go something like this:

A: “The Church of Almighty God testifies that the Lord Jesus has returned, that He is Almighty God, and that Almighty God expresses truths and carries out the work of judgment. Should we investigate the true way to see if this is indeed the return of the Lord?”

Many of those who believe in the Lord believe that as long as they make sacrifices, expend themselves, and work hard, they will certainly be among the first to be raptured. But is there a basis for this in the Lord’s words? The Lord Jesus said, “But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first” (Matthew 19:30). “My sheep hear my voice” (John 10:27). It is clear that whether or not someone can be raptured is determined by whether they hear the voice of the Lord. Those who first hear His voice and accept His appearance and work are the wise virgins, and they will be the first to be raptured.
