Rapture in Peril (7) - Difference Between the Words in Accord With the Truth and the Truth Itself

The Church of Almighty God|Eastern Lightning| Rapture in Peril (7) - Difference Between the Words in Accord With the Truth and the Truth Itself 


Some religious leaders write many spiritual books and release a lot of messages, and have people treat their words as the way of truth.
Only when the believers have discernment can they realize what their leaders write and say is not the truth. Then what exactly is the truth? And what are the words in accord with the truth? After watching the movie, I understand that all the words expressed by God are the truth, that only God has the substance of truth, and that only God is the truth. Just like the Lord Jesus’ love, mercy, forbearance, and forgiveness toward mankind, His requirement for man to love God with all his heart, mind and soul, to love his neighbor, to be light and salt, and so on, all these are the expression of truth. However, man’s words are of his own knowledge of truth, are his own point of view and understanding, and they involve human impurity. Besides, man's experience and knowledge about the truth is limited. I thought of some religious leaders I had encountered before. They preached some theologies that once sounded reasonable, acceptable and in line with the truth. But after practicing according to their words for some time, people of good caliber would find those words actually empty and with no reality. They're all man's imagined notions and unfeasible, and some of them were even fallacies against the truth. Nevertheless, to those who didn’t understand the truth or had no ways of practice, they regarded those words as the truth. It seems that though people read the Bible and pray in the Lord's name all the time, they may not grasp or practice the words of the Lord Jesus, but take the words of the religious leaders as the truth. In name, people believe in the Lord Jesus. But in practice, they’re following man. While watching the movie and think about what is the truth, I understand I actually followed man in my former belief in God, and that such pursuit didn’t conform to God’s will indeed.(repost)
