Within the subject of God incarnate not enticing people, there is another specific manifestation, which is that He does not incite people. There are similarities between not inciting people and not instigating people. I won’t go into these similarities, but I will talk briefly about the differences. When discerning various kinds of people in the church—which involves discerning antichrists, evil people, and various people who disrupt and disturb the work of God’s house—for one thing, you must have discernment of the character of these people and you must reject these people. Additionally, God’s house has corresponding ways of handling these people. What you most ought to do is know the corrupt dispositions and corrupt essence of various kinds of people, and be able to know people’s essence. After you come to know these things, you should not be someone of that type, you should not do those kinds of things, and you should also recognize and let go of the states and manifestations you have—as well as the specific intentions, motives, and viewpoints behind your actions—that are the same as theirs. The goal of discerning such people is not to incite one group of people to attack another group of people, nor is it to engage in factional struggles; is this point clear? (Yes.) You see, when we fellowship on some of the behaviors and manifestations of antichrists and evil people during formal gatherings, we never mention people’s names; we only mention the manifestations of such people, and then expose and dissect the essence of some of their behaviors and the viewpoints they hold, and finally characterize what their essence is. As for the purpose and goal of the fellowship, it is to help you be able to know and see clearly Satan’s true colors and Satan’s essence, and to help you realize more clearly what kind of people God loves and what kind He loathes. In addition, for you personally, it’s to help you realize what kind of path is correct to walk. You should be guarded against the kind of people God dislikes, you must reject their wrong ways of doing things, and you should also let go of their fallacious thoughts and views. The goal of our fellowshipping on these issues to begin with is not to incite you to attack such people. Even if, through fellowship, people come to have discernment of them, become averse to them in their hearts, and become able to reject them and not interact with them, fellowshipping in this way is not inciting people to do anything. That is, fellowshipping on these issues and topics has nothing to do with the campaigns to torment people or the partisan and factional struggles you might find in the nonbelieving world. People engage in factional struggles for the sake of power, desire, and personal interests. We, on the other hand, fellowship, expose, and discern some people in this way so that you can better understand the truth. The goal of such fellowship is to bring you before God, and get you to walk the right path, discern what positive things are and what negative things are, and improve your ability to discern right from wrong through this matter. As for the one who gets exposed through such fellowship, if they can feel remorse and have a repentant heart, then regardless of whether people accept them, God accepts them. What does it mean for God to accept them? It means God accepts their repentance; if they repent, God will not condemn them. But it is quite rare for people to repent, right? (Yes.) If they have done evil and have transgressions, we should also help them. We cannot completely write such a person off, decide that they are hopeless and can’t be given any more chances, and clear them out of the church; we have never taken such an approach. God’s house has established full-time duty churches, part-time duty churches, ordinary churches, and B groups; unless people reach the point where they’re completely hopeless, they will be given opportunities to repent. Even when the manifestations of many people have been the same as those of antichrists and the great red dragon—meaning they are manifestations of the same sort—we have not directly cleared those people out either. The only exception is antichrists whose circumstances are particularly serious, who have misled many brothers and sisters, and who have brought losses to the church’s work that are too severe to be measured in dollars and cents—such people are directly characterized as antichrists and expelled. Except for this most serious of situations, we give everyone else opportunities for repentance, and do not directly characterize them as those who will perish. The reason we give them opportunities is that everyone is accepting God’s work of the last days for the first time—it’s not that they have experienced God’s work for many years, have listened to so many sermons, and have committed multiple transgressions and are still given opportunities. What is it instead? It’s that many people are first-time offenders in doing evil, or they do it unintentionally, or there are some other reasons behind what they do. No matter how many reasons there are, in fact, according to the actual situation, they should not have done evil. However, God’s house still gives people leeway and gives them opportunities for repentance, and observes their manifestations time and time again. Some people do not repent after doing evil, so they are sent from full-time or part-time duty churches to ordinary churches or B groups. If they still do not repent in the B group, continuing to do evil and cause disturbances, they are ultimately cleared out of the church. Anyone who is cleared out is cleared out because they have committed all kinds of evil deeds and have not shown any repentance for many years. They can only blame themselves for not accepting the truth, because God’s house gave them several opportunities to repent and they did not cherish them, letting them all slip by; they have no one else to blame. In short, what is My aim in talking about these things? No matter which people we discern or handle, the goal of doing so is not to incite people to rise up and torment them, nor is it to incite them to engage in factional or gang struggles. Rather, it is to help people learn to discern, see through the essence of various kinds of people, and then mete out the deserved punishment and retribution against evil people, so that those who have been harmed can learn a lesson after witnessing the evil deeds of these people, know how to discern people, and understand an aspect of the truth. Therefore, when I fellowship with you on the specific manifestations of some people doing evil, it’s not to incite you to hate them, and then win you over to believe in Me and trust Me more; this is not My aim. Moreover, what I fellowship with you are only their ways of doing things that they outwardly exhibit; I have not told you about many of their specific manifestations that occur in secret. Though sometimes when I chat with some of you and this topic comes up, I say a bit more. My aim then is also not to incite you, or to make you rise up and denounce them, but to help you learn to discern people according to the truth, and know what exactly the principles of God’s house for handling people are. The principles of God’s house for handling people are fair and just; they are not about tormenting people—My aim is to help you understand this in your heart. In this way, even if I do bring up more specific details, it’s not to incite you; if you truly have discernment of the person being exposed, then that is enough for you. Some people who are very impetuous always want to fight. I say that is inappropriate—handle matters impartially, and treat people according to principles; there is no need to fight. If someone has repented, we will forgive them and treat them as a brother or sister. But if they still persist in their original wrong ways of doing things without the slightest repentance, and still try to justify and vindicate themselves, arguing at every opportunity, and even passing judgment and spreading things behind people’s backs, then we will treat them as enemies, never interact with them, and never allow them to enter the church. Is it appropriate to do this? (Yes.) From beginning to end, in all these ways of doing things, can you not see that every step follows the truth principles, and that people are treated according to the correct principles? Are any of these approaches informed by human will? Do they rely on impetuousness? (No.) Do emotions or feelings play any role here? (No.) Is the approach of tormenting people ever taken? Is the point ever to safeguard someone’s status, the church’s reputation, someone’s dignity, or My own dignity and image? (No.) This is never the case.

No matter what kind of person or which individual is being handled, our way of handling them is to hand the matter over to the church, which will handle them according to principles. In most cases, it’s the brothers and sisters of the decision-making groups who participate in these matters. If more brothers and sisters need to participate, then the case is sent to more church leaders or brothers and sisters in various churches so they can get a clear understanding of it, and then vote and express their viewpoints. Finally, the brothers and sisters decide how to handle this person. This authority is handed over to the church and to the brothers and sisters; however the church handles it, it will be done according to your decision. So what are the principles by which the brothers and sisters handle various kinds of people? People are measured according to the principles I and the man used by the Holy Spirit have been fellowshipping about all these years. After it’s handled, you will report what happened to the Above. I will take a look at it, and the man used by the Holy Spirit will also take a look at it; we will both review it. Sometimes, I see that you have handled the situation relatively appropriately, and sometimes the result of the handling does not quite match what I had intended. For certain individuals, the result of the handling is more severe than what I had in mind, and for some others, of course, the result is lighter than what I had in mind. However, I never make any suggestions; I respect your decisions and hand this authority over to you and to the church. What is the reason that I hand it over to you? You’ve listened to sermons and fellowships for so many years—I believe that most of you have a standard for measuring evil people and the evil deeds of those who harm the interests of God’s house and the interests of the brothers and sisters. Regarding how to handle these people, over eighty percent of people should have a scale in their hearts and know how to measure and handle them appropriately. Even if there are slight deviations in the handling by some church leaders and workers, the general direction will not be wrong; this is certain. What is this based on? It is based on the fact that you have understood the words I have spoken to you and the viewpoints I have taught and provided to you throughout all these years; you know what to do, and I believe in you. Therefore, judging from these situations, no matter what kind of person’s manifestations God’s house fellowships about and exposes, or what kind of person it handles, it absolutely has nothing to do with the kind of incitement that is referred to in the nonbelieving world. No matter what kind of person or which individual God’s house handles, such handling is never a campaign; rather, evil people who do evil, resist God, and oppose God will inevitably be revealed. This is an inevitable result. In addition, from God’s perspective, it is God setting up lessons and environments—time and time again—for every person who pursues the truth and every person who follows God. It’s an opportunity for you to know God’s work and discern evil people, and it is also your repeated practice of the truths you have comprehended and understood. Accepting things from God means learning lessons; it’s as simple as that. These situations are excellent opportunities for you to learn lessons and discern evil people. If God did not place these evil people and antichrists before you, and did not let you see with your own eyes how these evil people do evil and resist God, then these words I have fellowshipped over the years about discerning evil people and antichrists might just be a kind of doctrine to you. You would feel that there are no people who are that evil in the church, and in your heart these words would always be followed by a question mark. Although you would not deny these words, you would always treat them as a kind of doctrine. But if some evil people and antichrists do appear, and actual examples occur, you will genuinely realize: “So this is how Satan treats God. So Satan and antichrists are this averse to the truth and hate the truth this much. So Satan and devils are this wicked, deceitful, and greedy, and resist God like this. God says that Satan never accepts the truth, and that Satan is averse to the truth and hates the truth; now I have seen this. These evil people and antichrists lie inveterately. Even with the facts right before their eyes, they still try to argue; they really are living Satans! Satans truly never change their nature!” God sets up these people, events, and things just to help you learn lessons. Is this point clear? (Yes.) Therefore, no matter which people God’s house clears out and handles, and no matter which people it exposes and discerns, the nature of this is different from the nature of the internal struggles or campaigns of any group or force in the world. At the very least, these things that happen in God’s house are all orchestrated by God. When the time comes, God sets up these environments to let evil people come out and perform, and then has them revealed and exposed, so that God’s people can learn lessons. When God’s people see these things happen, they fellowship about them. Through fellowship, everyone gains more and more knowledge and discernment, and increasingly feels that evil people do not love the truth, and are even averse to the truth and hate the truth, and that they are living Satans. Now they see the nature essence of evil people clearly, because there are actual examples. Everything God’s house does in this regard is what all of God’s chosen people must experience in the process of God saving people. Viewed as a whole, it’s all orchestrated by God, so it is not a campaign. When these things happen, the words I speak to you are the same as any other sermon or fellowship for you—they are a kind of provision. That is, God sets up such a matter within the larger environment—and what role do I play here? I just give you a helping hand. When you do not have a clear view or knowledge of this matter, I fellowship the truth to help you, counsel you, and give you pointers. What pointers do I give? Ones that enable you to clearly recognize the focal point of the matter at hand and the essence of this problem. With a few simple pointers and prompts, you immediately gain clarity and know what’s going on. With just this slight assistance, you easily pass the test posed by this matter, just as you wished, and hand in a satisfactory answer to God. You have discernment of the evil person, no longer worship them, are no longer misled by them, and no longer believe the devilish words they speak. You have a clear knowledge of them: They lie inveterately, they never accept the truth, and they are a devil. This point is finalized. Previously, you worshiped them quite a bit and felt they were someone who sincerely wanted God. Now you have discernment of them, and have determined that this type of person cannot attain salvation, and that this type of person is God’s enemy. No matter what happens in the church or what kind of things happen in your work, with all the work I do and all the words I speak, I’m just continuously pulling and dragging you along, doing My utmost to bring you before God and onto the right path, and help you understand and gain the truth, so that you are no longer foolish or blind, and no longer rely on impetuousness or adhere to your old notions in how you approach any people, events, or things. No matter what results the purpose and goal of My speaking ultimately bring about in you, in short, I have only one goal and direction, which is to bring you before God and enable you to take your proper place as a created being. So, this is not incitement. Incitement entails the schemes and goals of human will, making others take risks to achieve one’s own goals behind the scenes. So, is what I do inciting you? (No.) When you have gained the truth and learned some lessons, I am satisfied; I have no other intentions. Am I doing this for the sake of My own selfish interests? (No.) On the contrary, I have to pay a price, expend thought, and talk at length to fellowship with you tirelessly, doing everything possible to explain every key point clearly to you. For example, if a certain matter involves ten key points, and I leave out three or five of them, you will miss out on a lot. If I only fellowship briefly on these ten key points, then people of poor caliber will gain even less; for people of good caliber to gain something, these points must also be fellowshipped on clearly, and people of poor caliber need to have them fellowshipped multiple times to understand. Thus, I have to explain all ten key points clearly, so that when everyone shares and communicates with each other during gatherings, they gradually gain all of them. God’s house is a big family. No single person can thoroughly eat and drink all the truths. Everyone needs to share with each other; you must always pray-read, share, and fellowship together. Only in this way can you understand more things and understand them more comprehensively. So, church life is indispensable, and you also cannot do without fellowshipping and sharing among yourselves. It may be that you gained three or five of those ten key points I spoke of at the time, and later, through everyone sharing with each other, you can gain seven or eight. After a few more years, others also share, and perhaps, as your gains gradually accumulate day by day and month by month, you will come to gain all ten key points. In this way, My words were not spoken in vain, right? (Right.) So, you gain the truth and grow in stature—what do I stand to gain from that? Am I hoping you will make Me something good to eat? Or buy Me some nice clothes? Maybe a big house? I do not value these things. It’s just like how David wanted to build a temple for God back then—would you say it was the temple that God was after? At that time, people truly did not understand God’s intentions; they were really quite foolish. Although God did not ask for it, seeing that David had such a heart, God accepted and tacitly consented to it. In the context of that age, people’s stature was just like that; God did not have high requirements for people. If it was to happen today, for people to do that would be too foolish and would not accord with the truth principles at all.

I never speak words of incitement or do things that incite people. Although I hate evil people and antichrists, I do not incite everyone to rise up to hate and reject them. The many words I speak are all to enable people to understand the truth and see the truth of the facts clearly, so this cannot be called incitement. No matter what aspect of the truth I fellowship, you must treat it correctly and be able to comprehend it correctly. This is just how the church’s work is done. I just tirelessly fellowship and provide the truth, and tirelessly share My knowledge of and insights into the truth, My viewpoints on various things, My knowledge of various kinds of people, and My views and attitudes toward them. My ultimate aim in fellowshipping tirelessly like this is to enable you to understand the truth and enter into the truth reality. So, in terms of this result, have I achieved it? Has God’s work achieved this result? (Yes.) There is a portion of people who are always afraid of believing wrongly; they buy Satan’s baseless rumors, thinking they have been misled, and that the One they believe in is not God but a person. You say you have been misled, but are the words you read not God’s words? Are God’s words not the truth? Is what is fellowshipped in the gatherings of God’s house not the truth? Can you gain the truth by believing in a person? What work done by God’s house is misleading you? On what basis do you determine whether you’ve been misled? You’ve only been misled if what you believe in is not the truth. If what you believe in is the truth, you cannot say you’ve been misled. Even if you have not gained the truth, it cannot be said that you’ve been misled; it can only be said that you do not pursue the truth, that you are not a right person, and that you have harmed yourself. You believed in the Lord for many years without gaining the truth—what was the problem then? You were definitely worshiping pastors and following people; this is what it truly means to be misled. God’s house treats everyone fairly. If you are willing to do your duty, God’s house gives you a duty, and also takes care of your living expenses without splitting hairs with you. Is this not God’s exaltation? Are you not receiving special favor? (Yes.) Then what is the goal of giving you a duty? It’s so that you, as a created being, can establish a fixed and stable relationship with the Creator while doing your duty. On this foundation, God provides you with the truth, and also sets up various environments for you to learn lessons. God’s house also always fellowships the truth and the principles of doing various duties with you. Does God expend a lot of thought for the sake of helping people gain the truth? Does God’s house do a lot of work to this end? (Yes.) People are the greatest beneficiaries in all this. You do not pursue the truth, but only pursue fame, gain, and status, yet you say you have suffered a loss. Are you not reversing black and white by saying this? Do you have any conscience speaking this way? Some people say, “Doing a duty in God’s house is so hard; there’s no end to the work you have to do!” Your efficiency in doing your duty is so low, so you should get in gear. You always want to eat for free without doing any work; this does not accord with the principles. Some people always want to eat for free and not do any work; what is the problem here? Aren’t these people gluttons? They must have starved to death in their past lives! They come to God’s house just wanting to eat for free. People with conscience and reason are unwilling to do this. If God’s house lets them eat their fill, they can repay God’s grace and love, and they can do their duty well without shying from hardship or fatigue. People without conscience and reason always want to eat for free. They’re terrified that doing a little work might mean they suffer a loss, so they eat more to take advantage of God’s house. Can such people do their duty well? I think sooner or later they’ll be eliminated. Some people also say, “Working in God’s house is tiring!” Well, you have no strengths. If you don’t work and don’t do your duty, then you will have to return to the world to work for a living—won’t the work you do there be tiring? Do you want to eat for free in God’s house? God’s house is not a nursing home, nor is it a charity. If you always want to eat for free, are you not devoid of conscience? Let’s not even go into how much God’s house has spent to provide for your food, clothing, and daily expenses—just in terms of the truth you’ve gained, what could you possibly use to buy it? Could you buy it with gold or diamonds? You could not buy it with anything; the truth is priceless. In providing you with the truth, have I asked you for a single penny? (No.) How much of My heart’s blood do I have to expend in preaching sermons to you? Which of My fellowships on the truth did not allow you to gain benefit? Which gathering was a waste of your time and energy? (None.) I’ve more than done right by you. Every time I preach a sermon, I allow you to gain something. When I chat and make small talk with you, even if I tell a joke, it’s all to help you understand the truth. Therefore, I keep speaking ceaselessly so that you can become able to understand the truth. Even so, some people still say that they’re being misled by believing in God. Are they being misled? (No.) One thing is certain about those who say they are being misled: They are not God’s sheep. Not being God’s sheep, they cannot enjoy the blessing of understanding the truth. They should suffer the torment of sin and live in pain, with Satan afflicting them as it pleases and continuing to corrupt them, and then perish together with Satan; this is their deserved destination. Not being God’s sheep, they cannot enjoy that blessing. As soon as they read God’s words, they cannot bear it or handle it in their hearts, just like some people who are ill-fated and cannot handle blessings; if they enjoy too good a life, they will die young. Tell Me, I have gathered and fellowshipped with you for so many years—have I ever asked you for a single penny? (No.) Some people have tried to give Me a few hundred yuan to My face, asking Me to buy some supplements to improve My health. I said, “I don’t need it, I have enough. You hold on to the money, or see what the church needs and buy something for it, or see which brothers and sisters need money for living expenses or travel expenses, and give it to them. There’s no need to give it to Me.” There are also people who give Me some good things to My face, and I refuse them all without exception. From the beginning up to now, I have never taken a single penny or a single thing from any individual. Some people offer up some items to Me, and most of the time I refuse them. If it is truly something I need, I will accept a little, and then I also have to express My gratitude. I have never demanded any personal items from anyone. I would not ask you to give Me one or send Me some just because I see you wear nice clothes or eat well; I have never asked for any of these things. For so many years, My gathering and fellowshipping with you has been free of charge. I have not asked you for one cent, nor have I asked you to hand over a single penny. Moreover, we never talk about making offerings in our gatherings and fellowships. So I do not know why some people who have accepted this stage of work and believed for so many years can still say they’ve been misled. How were you misled? Were you cheated out of your money or tricked into sex? Neither. Then how do you characterize someone who can say these sorts of things? (They’re a disbeliever.) They are a disbeliever. They are not God’s sheep; they are a devil, so they can spew venomous slander.

We always fellowship the truth when we gather, and after fellowshipping for so many years, you have finally learned the basics. I see that in so many experiential testimonies now, people have some experiences and knowledge regarding various things they encounter in life, especially in doing their duty. They all have made some gains in the truth and some growth in life. This shows that, through often listening to Me speak and preach sermons, you have developed correct thoughts and views and have shared genuine experiential knowledge; this is what I am most pleased to see. I encourage you to write more experiential testimony articles. Even if your understanding is shallow, write it down as long as it’s even remotely relevant; the more you write, the more profound your understanding will become. This is just how people come to know the truth, understand the truth, and experience the truth. The more seriously you approach it and the more importance you attach to it in your heart, the more definite the thoughts and views you will have in your understanding of the truth. The more definite your thoughts and views are, the more substance there will be in what you write when you put pen to paper, and the better able you will be to express it in writing. But if you only ever ponder things subconsciously or just think about them simply, you will not develop any definite thoughts or views. When you put pen to paper, you will feel, “I have understanding—why can’t I convey it in writing?” You cannot get it out because you have no thoughts or views, and you do not know how to write. Without thoughts and views, the article you write will lack soul, a direction, and a goal, and you will not be able to determine the thrust of the article. If you don’t know and can’t determine what the goal of writing the article is, what results you hope to achieve through it, what truth principles are involved that you have come to understand, and what truth is involved that you have come to understand, you will not be able to start writing. If you can determine these things, if you know what the truth actually is, where your fallaciousness and distortions lie, what things you’ve turned around and what you have gained through now understanding the truth—if you are clear on all these things, you will be able to put pen to paper. Many people have already had some gains in this aspect, which can be seen from these experiential testimony articles uploaded by God’s house. A portion of people have already begun to have definite life entry, and of course, a portion of people have also had definite gains in the truth. It can be said with certainty that for this portion of people who have had gains in the truth, some truth principles have already become their life within them. This is a very good beginning, and it is also a great phenomenon. It can be said that having these gains is the effect achieved because our fellowship on various aspects of the truth has become more and more detailed and specific over all these years. What’s the point of giving this example? It’s to tell you that, having listened to My sermons and fellowships for so many years, based on the truths you can understand, whether on the level of doctrine or on a practical level, you should no longer think that God’s house is a so-called “human group.” No matter what aspect of the truth is being fellowshipped, what specific matter you are trying to know, or what special behaviors and incidents of evil people are being fellowshipped, you should no longer measure them with the thoughts and views of nonbelievers. Rather, you should accept them from God, strive to learn lessons, treat them seriously, and then attentively ponder and learn the truths that ought to be understood within these things. You must remember this point: Whether it’s My fellowship, the fellowship of the man used by the Holy Spirit, or the fellowship of the brothers and sisters below, if it truly involves a type of evil person that people should discern or a type of lesson that should be learned, as long as it involves the truth, and as long as it is an aspect of the truth that you ought to understand and grasp, you should treat it correctly and take it seriously. Even if the actions of a few individuals are somewhat radical and obstinate, as long as you do not act that way, it is fine. Focus on the truth, put effort into the truth, know the essence of the facts of the matter at hand, know and discern negative figures, accept positive things, and practice according to the positive path—in doing this, you will achieve the desired effect and be able to reap a harvest. You should not approach this with the viewpoints of nonbelievers, always thinking, “God’s house fellowshipping about exposing and cleansing away evil people is launching a campaign; it’s inciting and enticing us to do certain things. I fear I’d end up getting burned and bringing trouble upon myself if I exposed evil people.” There is no need to worry about this; in God’s house, the truth absolutely holds power. If you believe that God holds sovereignty, that God is almighty, and that God is righteous, then you should have a correct comprehension and attitude toward this matter, and strive to reap a harvest in the truth when encountering every matter and these special incidents, rather than doing your utmost to protect yourself by acting as a bystander or a disbeliever. Do you understand? (Yes.) You see, are these words I speak helpful to you? (Yes.) If you want to be a bystander and live timorously, then your faith in God is too small; you do not believe the facts of God’s righteousness and almightiness, or the fact that God holds sovereignty over all things. Even if it cannot be said that you are a disbeliever, at the very least you have a skeptical attitude; you have not given your heart to God, and you do not have a true heart for God. This is a type of person: They are very timid, and when the church does cleansing work and needs to expose antichrists and evil people, they shrink back, evade, and compromise. There is also another type of disbeliever who, when encountering such matters, thinks, “God’s house is launching a campaign again. I will not take part in this. I won’t say anything. What if I say the wrong thing and get expelled? I will not expose anyone, and I will not make enemies with anyone. All I’ve got to do is protect myself; I’ve got to preserve myself. I do not see anyone’s evil deeds, I do not hear anyone’s preposterous words, and I am unaware of and do not see anyone doing things that cause disruptions and disturbances or harm the interests of God’s house. This all has nothing to do with me.” This is the viewpoint of a disbeliever. Not only do you fail to safeguard the interests of God’s house, but you also laugh at God’s house, while at the same time doing your utmost to protect yourself, betraying the interests of God’s house. In God’s eyes, what kind of person is someone like this? Does God like such people? (No, in God’s eyes, such a person is a nonbeliever.) If you are like this, God treats you as a nonbeliever. You may be doing your duty, but God does not accept you, or acknowledge you as a created being of His—this means trouble for you. Even if you protect yourself quite well, that is of no use; you must let God protect you. If God protects you, then you will be perfectly safe; if God protects you, you will be able to gain the truth and God’s acceptance. You should pray for God’s protection, and fulfill the duty and responsibility that a person ought to fulfill; do not try to protect yourself alone. How capable are you, that you can protect your own life? How capable are you, that you can secure your own destination? You are not this capable; you are not in control of yourself. If you’re smart, you should give yourself over, assume your proper position as a created being when encountering any matter, fulfill your responsibilities and your duty, and do your utmost to safeguard the interests of God’s house. If you can do your duty devotedly and well, and you can safeguard the interests of God’s house, see whether God would hand you over to Satan, whether you would die, and whether the church would expel you. If you cannot even be certain of this, then you are an out-and-out disbeliever; you are a nonbeliever. God does not save or perfect nonbelievers; He does not want such people. Do you understand? (Yes.) Once you have such thoughts and views, when you next encounter any matter, do not stay out of it. You must treat yourself as a member of this big family which is the house of God. The interests of God’s house concern the interests of every brother and sister, and they also concern your interests. When the interests of God’s house suffer a loss, you should realize that your own interests also suffer a loss. You should stand up to put a stop to this and discern this, and then fellowship with the brothers and sisters to safeguard the interests of God’s house. This is what people in God’s house ought to do and the behavior they ought to exhibit; this is what God’s people and the good soldiers of the kingdom ought to do. Do you understand? (Yes.)

Alright, we will end our fellowship here for today. Goodbye!
