I

Awaken, brothers! Awaken, sisters! My day will not be delayed; time is life, and to reclaim lost time is to save life! The time is not far off! If you fail the college entrance examination, you can study for it again and again. However, My day will not be further delayed. Remember! Remember! These are My kind words of exhortation. The end of the world has unfolded before your very eyes, and the great catastrophes will soon arrive. Which is more important: your life, or your sleep, your food and drink and clothing? The time has come for you to weigh these things!

How pitiful! How poor! How blind! How cruel people are! You actually turn a deaf ear to My word—am I speaking to you in vain? You are still so remiss—why? Why is that? Have you really never had such a thought? For whom do I say these things? Believe in Me! I am your Savior! I am your Almighty One! Keep watch! Keep watch! Time lost will never come again—remember this! There is no medicine in the world that cures regret! So, what else could I possibly say to you? Is My word not worthy of your careful pondering, your repeated pondering?
