68 The Main Goal of God’s Work of Conquest
Verse 1
You’ve all fallen under darkness,
and you have all been deeply harmed.
For you to know human nature,
live truth is what God’s work aims for.
If you can escape the darkness,
divorce yourself from things unclean,
if you can become holy,
you possess truth, that’s what this means.
Chorus
The main goal of conquering
is so humanity’s cleansed,
so man can possess the truth,
for too little they understand.
To do conquering work on these ones
is of the deepest significance.
Verse 2
It’s not that your nature is changed,
but that you can practice the truth.
You’re able to forsake the flesh.
This is what those who’ve been cleansed do.
Only those who have and live truth
can completely be gained by God.
Those who live out Peter’s image
are perfected, others conquered.
Chorus
The main goal of conquering
is so humanity’s cleansed,
so man can possess the truth,
for too little they understand.
To do conquering work on these ones
is of the deepest significance.
Verse 3
The work done to all the conquered
consists of issuing curses,
chastising and the show of wrath.
They get righteousness and curses.
To work on these people is to
reveal their corruption within,
so that they recognize it,
and so they are fully convinced.
Bridge
Once man becomes obedient,
then the conquering work will end.
Even if most don’t seek the truth,
the conquest work will have ended.
Chorus
The main goal of conquering
is so humanity’s cleansed,
so man can possess the truth,
for too little they understand.
To do conquering work on these ones
is of the deepest significance.
