In March 2018, The Church of Almighty God’s website and YouTube channel
rolled out a special series called “Church Life—Variety Show Series,”
that includes short sketches, crosstalk, scene plays, songs and dance
performances etc., and in which Christians present their understanding,
attainment, and all kinds of testimonies of their experiences of God’s
work in the last days using various different art forms. In this
program, we interview the actors as well as Christian viewers of the
shows and, through sharing their experiences, the audience can
understand how Christians in The Church of Almighty God experience God’s
work of the last days, and can also follow closely the salvation of the
last days brought by the return of the Lord Jesus—Almighty God.
“God does the work of the word in the last days, and such words are that of the Holy Spirit, for God is the Holy Spirit and can also become flesh; therefore, the words of the Holy Spirit, as spoken of in the past, are the words of the incarnate God today. … For God to speak utterances to carry out work, He must become flesh, else His work cannot accomplish His goal” (from “How Can Man Who Has Defined God in His Conceptions Receive the Revelations of God?” in The Word Appears in the Flesh).

Christian song | Learn How to Pray to God | "True Prayer"
True prayer is speaking your heart’s words to God.
It’s based on God’s will and His word.
True prayer is feeling, oh, so close to God, as if He’s in front of you.
True prayer means you have much to say to God,
your heart is radiant as the sun,
you feel inspired by the loveliness of God, those who hear are gratified.
True prayer will bring both peace and pleasure,
the strength to love God rises up, the worth of loving God is felt;
and all of this will prove your prayers are true.

God's will | The Path … (4)
That people are able to discover God’s loveliness, to seek the way of loving God in this age, and that they are willing to accept the training of the kingdom of today—all of this is God’s grace and even more, it’s Him uplifting mankind. Whenever I think of this I strongly feel the loveliness of God. It is truly that God loves us. Otherwise, who would be able to discover His loveliness? It is only from this that I see that all of this work is personally done by God Himself, and people are guided and directed by God. I give thanks to God for this, and I’d like My brothers and sisters to join Me in praising God: “All glory be to You, the supreme God Himself! May Your glory multiply and be revealed in those of us who have been selected and obtained by You.” I have gained enlightenment from God—before the ages God had already predestined us and wanted to gain us in the last days, thus allowing all things in the universe to see God’s glory in its entirety through us. Thus, we are the crystallization of six thousand years of God’s management plan; we are the models, the specimens of God’s work in the entire universe. Not until now have I discovered how much love God truly has for us, and that the work He does in us and the things that He says all surpass that of ages past a millionfold. Even in Israel and in Peter, God never personally did so much work and spoke so much. This shows that we, this group of people, truly are incredibly blessed—incomparably more blessed than the saints of times past. This is why God has always said people of the final age are blessed. No matter what others say, I believe that we are the ones who are most blessed by God. We should accept the blessings bestowed upon us by God; perhaps there are some who will complain to God, but I believe that blessings come from God and that proves that they are what we deserve. Even if others complain or are not happy with us, I always believe that no one can accept or take away the blessings God has given to us. Because God’s work is carried out on us and He is speaking to us face to face—to us, not to others—God does whatever He wants to do, and if people are not convinced, isn’t that just asking for trouble? Isn’t that courting humiliation? Why would I say this? It’s because I have deep experience with this. Just like the work God does on Me that only I can accept—can anyone else do it? I am fortunate that God entrusts Me with this—could someone else just indiscriminately do that? But I hope that My brothers and sisters can understand My heart. It’s not to hold up My own credentials to boast to people, but it’s to explain an issue. I am willing to give all glory to God and to have Him observe each and every one of our hearts so that our hearts are all purified in front of God. I would like to make a wish from the bottom of My heart: I hope to be completely obtained by God, to become a pure virgin who is sacrificed upon the altar, and even more to have the obedience of a lamb, appearing among all of mankind as a holy spiritual body. This is My promise, the oath I have set forth in front of God. I am willing to fulfill it and repay God’s love through this. Are you willing to do this? I believe that this promise of Mine will invigorate more younger brothers and sisters, and bring more young people hope. I feel that it seems that God places special emphasis on young people. Perhaps it’s My own bias, but I always feel that young people have hope for their future; it seems that God does extra work in young people. Although they are lacking in insight and wisdom and they are all overly exuberant and hot-headed just like a newborn calf, I believe that the youth are not entirely without their merits. You can see the innocence of youth in them and they are easy to accept new things. Although young people do tend toward arrogance, fierceness, and impulsivity, these things do not impact their ability to receive new light. This is because young people generally don’t hold fast to outmoded things. That’s why I see limitless promise in young people, and their vitality; it is from this that I have a tender feeling for them. Although I don’t have any dislike for the older brothers and sisters, I’m also not interested in them. I do, however, sincerely apologize to the older brothers and sisters. Perhaps what I’ve said is out of line or is inconsiderate, but I hope that all of you can forgive My recklessness, because I am too young and do not place too much emphasis on My manner of speaking. However, to tell the truth, the older brothers and sisters do, after all, have their functions that they should perform—they are not at all useless. This is because they have experience in dealing with affairs, they are steady in how they handle things, and they do not make as many mistakes. Aren’t these their strengths? I’d like for all of us to say before God: “Oh God! May we all fulfill our own functions in our different positions, and may we all do our very best for Your will!” I believe this must be God’s will!

Gospel Q&A | 2. Why does God have to judge and chastise people?
Relevant Words of God:
Though Jesus did much work among
man, He only completed the redemption of all mankind and became man’s
sin offering, and did not rid man of all his corrupt disposition. Fully
saving man from the influence of Satan not only required Jesus to take
on the sins of man as the sin offering, but also required God to do
greater work to completely rid man of his disposition, which has been
corrupted by Satan. And so, after man was forgiven his sins, God has
returned to flesh to lead man into the new age, and begun the work of
chastisement and judgment, and this work has brought man into a higher
realm. All those who submit under His dominion shall enjoy higher truth
and receive greater blessings. They shall truly live in the light, and
shall gain the truth, the way, and the life.

praise song | The Love of God Is Great | "Only God Loves Man Most"
God becomes flesh in the last days to save man for He loves man.
Driven by His love, He carries out today’s work.
It’s under the foundation of love.
God takes on flesh and suffers disgrace to save the tainted and broken ones.
He endures such pain.
For again and again, He shows His immeasurable love.
God doesn’t want any soul to be lost.
Man doesn’t care what his future will be.
Man doesn’t know how to cherish his own life.
But God does. Only He loves man. Oh … oh …

Christian Skit | "The Stakeout" | Who Has Forced Christians to Leave Home and Live in Exile
Xu Huilin and her husband Zhiyong are leaders with The Church of Almighty God. They flee their hometown after learning the Chinese
government is in pursuit of them because of their beliefs. Their only
child Lingling goes to live with her grandmother, and they come to
depend on each other. Xu Huilin secretly returns home on New Year's Eve
to be with her family, but the Chinese police have already set up a
stakeout, hoping for an opportunity to arrest the couple. The story
unfolds from there …
Recommendation:
Question 20: It’s written right there in the Bible: “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever” (Heb 13:8). So the name of the Lord never changes! But you say that when the Lord comes again in the last days He will take a new name and will be called Almighty God. How do you explain it?
