Discern the Pharisees’ Substance of Opposing God
When the Lord Jesus came to do His work, the head of the religious world slandered and condemned Him, and in the end they united with the Roman government to nail Him on the cross. Nowadays the sinful conduct of those in the religious world who oppose Almighty God is similar to the terrifying words and actions of the Jews who opposed the Lord Jesus back then. Why is this? Do you know the root cause of why they oppose God? Do you want to understand their substance? Then watch this clip!
On the Fifth Day
“The unique authority of the Creator was manifested not only in His ability to create all things and command all things to come into being, but also in His ability to govern and hold sovereignty over all things, and bestow the life and vitality upon all things…..”Know More:

Specific Manifestations of Job’s Fear of God and Shunning of Evil in His Daily Life
"Next, let us look at specific manifestations of Job’s fear of God and shunning of evil. In addition to the passages that precede and follow it, let us also read Job 1:5, which is one of the specific manifestations of Job’s fear of God and shunning of evil. It relates to how he feared God and shunned evil in his daily life; most prominently, he not only did as he ought to do for the sake of his own fear of God and shunning of evil, but also regularly sacrificed burnt offerings before God on behalf of his sons. He was afraid that they had often “sinned, and cursed God in their hearts” while feasting. And how was this fear manifested in Job? The original text gives the following account: “And it was so, when the days of their feasting were gone about, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all.” Job’s conduct shows us that, rather than being manifested in his outward behavior, his fear of God came from within his heart, and that his fear of God could be found in every aspect of his daily life, at all times, for he not only shunned evil himself, but often sacrificed burnt offerings on behalf of his sons. In other words, Job was not only deeply afraid of sinning against God and renouncing God in his own heart, but also worried that his sons sinned against God and renounced Him in their hearts. From this can be seen that the truth of Job’s fear of God stands up to scrutiny, and is beyond the doubt of any man. Did he do thus occasionally, or frequently? The final sentence of the text is “Thus did Job continually.” The meaning of these words is that Job did not go and look in on his sons occasionally, or when it pleased him, nor did he confess to God through prayer. Instead, he regularly sent and sanctified his sons, and sacrificed burnt offerings for them. The “continually” here does not mean he did so for one or two days, or for a moment. It is saying that the manifestation of Job’s fear of God was not temporary, and did not stop at knowledge, or spoken words; instead, the way of fearing God and shunning evil guided his heart, it dictated his behavior, and it was, in his heart, the root of his existence. That he did so continually shows that, in his heart, he often feared that he himself would sin against God and was also afraid that his sons and daughters sinned against God. It represents just how much weight the way of fearing God and shunning evil carried within his heart. He did thus continually because, in his heart, he was frightened and afraid—afraid that he had committed evil and sinned against God, and that he had deviated from the way of God and so was unable to satisfy God. And at the same time, he also worried about his sons and daughters, fearing that they had offended God. Thus was Job’s normal conduct in his everyday life. It is precisely this normal conduct which proves that Job’s fear of God and shunning of evil are not empty words, that Job truly lived out such reality. “Thus did Job continually”: these words tell us of Job’s everyday deeds before God. When he did thus continually, did his behavior and his heart reach before God? In other words, was God often pleased with his heart and his behavior? Then, under what circumstances and in what context did Job do thus continually? Some people say that it was because God frequently appeared to Job that he acted so; some say that he did thus continually because he would shun evil; and some say that perhaps he thought that his fortune had not come easily, and he knew that it had been bestowed upon him by God, and so he was deeply afraid of losing his property as a result of sinning against or offending God. Are any of these claims true? Clearly not. For, in the eyes of God, what God accepted and cherished most about Job was not just that he did thus continually; more than that, it was his conduct before God, man, and Satan when he was handed over to Satan and tempted. The sections below offer the most convincing evidence, evidence which shows us the truth of God’s assessment of Job. Next, let us read the following passages of scripture."

The Hymn of God's Word "God Does New Work in Every Age"
God's wisdom never changes, God's wonder never changes, God's righteousness never changes, God's majesty never changes. God's substance never changes, and what He has and what He is shall never change.
I
And His work is moving forward and going deeper; God is always new and never old. New name, new work in each age; a new will and disposition. If man couldn't see this disposition, God'd still be nailed to the cross and would be defined by them! God's wisdom never changes, God's wonder never changes, God's righteousness never changes, God's majesty never changes. God's substance never changes, and what He has and what He is shall never change.
II
God's work is new and never old, but who He is never changes. You can't define 6000 years of God's work in static language. God's not as simple as you think, His work goes on from age to age. Changed His name from Jehovah to Jesus. See His work changed through the ages! God's wisdom never changes, God's wonder never changes. God's righteousness never changes, God's majesty never changes. God's substance never changes, and what He has and what He is shall never change. History is moving forward and going further. God's work is always moving to end the 6000 year plan. But there's still new work to do, each day and each year. New paths, new times, bigger work, and new things. God isn't stuck in old ways; new work, never ceasing, always happening. God's wisdom never changes, God's wonder never changes. God's righteousness never changes, God's majesty never changes. God's substance never changes, and what He has and what He is shall never change. All the time! (New work!) Going on! (New work!) Moving forward (New work!) Every age! (New work!) God does His new work!

Only When God Becomes Flesh Can Man Be His Confidant
I
Only when God
humbles Himself to an extent,
meaning He becomes flesh
to dwell among men,
that's when they can
become His confidant,
that's when they can
be His intimate friend.
How can man qualify as God's confidant
when God is of the spirit,
exalted and hard to fathom?
Only by becoming
the same created flesh as man
can man understand His will
and be gained by Him.
II
God speaks and works in the flesh,
sharing in man's joys,
sorrows and tribulations,
living in their world,
protecting and guiding them,
thus cleansing them
to gain His blessing and salvation.
How can man qualify as God's confidant
when God is of the spirit,
exalted and hard to fathom?
Only by becoming
the same created flesh as man
can man understand His will
and be gained by Him.
Through this,
man can truly understand God's will
and become His confidant;
only this is practical.
If God were invisible
and intangible to man,
how could man be His confidant?
Isn't this doctrine idle?
How can man qualify as God's confidant
when God is of the spirit,
exalted and hard to fathom?
Only by becoming
the same created flesh as man
can man understand His will
and be gained by Him.
Only when God becomes flesh
can man be His confidant.

2. The Daily Food and Drink God Prepares for Mankind
"God has given mankind more than just these—there are also vegetables. When you eat rice, if rice is all you eat, you might lack nutrition. If you then stir-fry a couple of small dishes or mix up a salad to go with the meal, then the vitamins in the vegetables and various trace elements or other nutrients will be able to supply the needs of the human body in a very normal way. When people are not eating main meals they can also have some fruit, right? Sometimes, when people need more fluids or other nutrients or different flavors, there are also vegetables and fruits to supply them. As the soils and climates in the north, south, east and west are different, they also have different varieties of vegetables and fruits. Since the climate in the south is too hot, the majority of fruits and vegetables are of the cool type that can balance the cold and heat in people’s bodies when they eat them. On the other hand, there are fewer varieties of vegetables and fruits in the north, but still enough for the people of the north to enjoy. "

The Hymn of God's Word"God Is Abundantly Merciful and Profoundly Wrathful"
It is so real and it's so true
God's mercy and God's tolerance exist,
but when He unleashes His wrath,
His holiness and righteousness
also show man the side of God
that brooks no offense.
When man can fully follow and obey
the commands of God
and acts in accordance
to the requirements of God,
God is abundant and plentiful
in His mercy toward man;
when man has been filled with corruption,
filled with hatred and enmity for Him,
God will show profound anger.
And to what extent His anger will be?
His wrath will keep on
till He sees no more,
no more man's evil deeds and resistance,
till they are no longer before His eyes.
And to what extent His anger will be?
His wrath will keep on
till He sees no more,
no more man's evil deeds and resistance,
till they are no longer before His eyes.
Only at that time
will God's anger disappear.
No matter who the person is,
if their heart
has become distant from God,
and has turned away from God,
never to return,
then regardless of how they,
seemingly or how willingly
wish to worship, follow and obey God
in their body or their thoughts,
once their heart turns away from God,
God's wrath will be unleashed
without cease.
When God deeply unleashes His anger,
having given man plenty of chance,
there will be no way of taking it back,
and He will never again,
will never ever again
be merciful and tolerant of such man!
This is one side of God's disposition
that tolerates no offense.
He is tolerant and merciful
toward things kind, beautiful, and good;
He is profoundly wrathful
toward things evil, sinful, and wicked,
such that He is unceasing in His wrath,
such that He is unceasing in His wrath.
These are two main and leading
aspects of God's disposition,
and they have been revealed by God
from beginning to end:
abundant mercy and profound wrath.
This is one side of God's disposition
that tolerates no offense.
He is tolerant and merciful
toward things kind, beautiful, and good;
He is profoundly wrathful
