Height Determines Your Perspective

Good morning, everyone. Let us turn to Revelation Chapter 4, a rather mystical chapter. After much consideration, I have revised the theme of this chapter from my previous sermon, "All things were created because of God's will," to "Viewing everything from the height of God's throne."

Height determines one's perspective. People are often perplexed, and why is that? It is because their vantage point is too low. Standing at a human level, they cannot comprehend. What is the purpose of human existence? To suffer, to endure hardship, to live a life that seems utterly meaningless. I tell you, as I live in this world, a certain feeling often overwhelms me. When it does, a sense of emptiness engulfs me, pushing me into an abyss. It is not a pleasant feeling. However, living too earnestly and strenuously in this world can be even more agonizing. Later, I realized that some matters require us to elevate ourselves to the height of God's throne to understand. Therefore, this chapter is titled "Viewing everything from the height of God's throne."

Old John was filled with many perplexities, and he sought answers. After his seeking, we find that God did not directly address his confusions. When we ascend to the height of God's throne and view things from the perspective of the One who was, who is, and who is to come, it is extraordinary. Then, when you look at a human life that spans only seventy or eighty years, or even just thirty or forty years for some, it puts things into perspective.

Thus, we arrive at many conclusions: How insignificant humans are in this world, isn't it? Standing at the height of God's throne, you see why things are the way they are. There is no why; it simply is. Therefore, height determines one's perspective.

After writing about this, I must confess that I struggled to explain it to you. Later, I referred to the interpretation of the Apostle Paul. One of Paul's characteristics is that he was caught up to the third heaven. Whether he saw the four living creatures or anything else, he did not say. Why? Because saying it would serve no purpose.

Neither Jesus Christ nor the Apostle Paul elaborated. Jesus Christ, who knew the things of heaven even more clearly, said, "If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how then will you believe if I tell you heavenly things?" (John 3:12). As for why God elevated Old John to this height, allowing him to see and then write about it, I do not fully understand. Frankly, I do not know what Old John saw, and I cannot prove it.

Therefore, we must begin to readjust our understanding. What should we readjust? The Apostle Paul's words are more practical: "I tell you, and you do not know whether I truly saw it or only imagined it." Even today, many churches claim to see this and that, to have visions, and to hear God's voice.

Old John, in fact, had Jewish customs. For example, Ezekiel saw certain things, and Old John saw certain things. But thank God, He allowed them to see and write them down. However, do not be perplexed today. Simply summarize it as: height determines one's perspective. If you understand this, it is quite beneficial. Therefore, Old John viewed everything from the height of God's throne.

It is not that this matter is unimportant; it is important. However, what Old John wrote and saw can cause confusion for you and me. We do not know what he is saying. It seems we understand, but we do not. I believe that one day you and I will come before God, and at that time, these things will all be clear. When Old John wrote to the seven churches, it was written in a way that we can understand.

A Door Standing Open in Heaven

After this I looked, and there before me was a door standing open in heaven. And the voice I had first heard speaking to me like a trumpet said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must happen after this.” (Revelation 4:1)

Old John saw a door standing open in heaven. Why did the door open? I tell you, all things are obtained through seeking. Our brothers and sisters, Old John's seeking was somewhat similar to that of the Jews. He was perplexed, living on the island of Patmos, seeing the corruption of the church, and the various forms it took. He could not resolve the issues. There was the heresy of the Nicolaitans, Gnosticism, and other isms, much like the church today. One moment it is charismatic, the next it is about the gospel; one moment it is Presbyterian, the next it is Wesleyan, then Anglican, and Catholic. I tell you, after seeing all this, you become bewildered.

Therefore, Old John was likely seeking in a state of bewilderment. God said, "Since you cannot understand, I will bring you to heaven and let you see." Even in heaven, his confusions were not answered, but because he stood at that height, he was different. Therefore, God revealed heavenly things to Old John. Were Old John's confusions resolved? We do not know. God simply brought him to heaven, and Old John wrote down what he saw. Paul also saw these things, but he did not write them down. We do not know what he saw because he did not write it. But Old John wrote down what he saw.

After writing it down, the door in heaven opened. Let us try to avoid seeking what Old John sought in Revelation. Clear and evident things belong to us humans. Mysterious things belong to the Lord God. I truly do not understand Revelation Chapter 4. I do not know why Old John wrote these things, but I can summarize it as viewing things from the height of God's throne.

The door in heaven opened, and he saw all these things in heaven. I tell you, I am even more perplexed. Frankly, I am not trying to deceive you. Oh, the four living creatures are endlessly saying, "Holy, holy, holy!" My goodness, we do not even know if it is just noise, do we? They ceaselessly say it day and night. As for how Old John knew they were ceaselessly saying it day and night, he only glanced at it and then came down. How did he arrive at that conclusion? Perhaps Old John assumed they were ceaselessly saying, "Holy, holy." If we go to heaven and endlessly shout "Holy, holy, holy," what do you think? It still seems quite perplexing.

Then the twenty-four elders fall down before the throne and worship. Is this what they do from morning till night? Perhaps not. If that is truly the case, then so be it; we cannot control it. Therefore, do not assume that our God is constantly saying "Holy, holy, holy," and we are prostrate on the ground, and the twenty-four elders are worshiping the One who lives forever and ever. Our Lord, our God, You are worthy to receive glory and honor and power. This endless loop is likely not the work of our God.

Do you understand? Do not assume that this is how it is, because God wants to make us creative beings. Remember, where is this revelation written? It is written in Genesis. Revelation cannot overturn Genesis. Genesis was revealed to Moses. When God created man, what did He say? He arranged for man to manage everything on earth.

As for what the four living creatures in heaven or the twenty-four elders are doing, we know that God's purpose in creating us has not changed from the beginning, which is to manage the entire earth. God is the Creator, and we are creative beings. God has His attributes, and we have God's attributes. This is the logic. The door in heaven opened, and Old John entered the spiritual realm to see the things in the spiritual realm.

Come Up Here, and I Will Show You What Must Happen After This

This statement is very important. So, why was Old John brought to heaven? To tell him what will happen in the future. What will happen in the future, as Old John wrote in Revelation, is that Jesus Christ will bring the angels, messengers, and us to heaven to meet God, and then come to earth to reign for a thousand years, managing the earth. This logic is correct.

What Old John wrote later and what we see are two completely different things. So, what are you going to do when you come up here? Standing at God's height, seeing the future, I will reveal the future to you. I will tell you God's plan. What is God's plan, how did God create, and what is the purpose of God creating man? When you stand at this height, at the height of God's plan, many of your confusions will disappear. Are you in God's plan or outside of God's plan? If you are in God's plan, you see that it is good, isn't it?

Today, we need to understand God's plan and know God's plan. It is easy to know that this is God's will for us. So, in this whole matter, combining Revelation, Genesis, and Ecclesiastes, I can tell you that without God's will, without understanding God's will, life on earth is truly vanity of vanities.

Many of our brothers and sisters are ignorant. They have not received much education since childhood, and what they think about is just living, which is completely outside of God's will. If you are completely outside of God's will, will you not suffer? Look at the sins you have committed. Today, brothers and sisters, if anyone is not in God's will, it is vanity of vanities. If you are in God's will, you will live out God's glory. Which path will you take? Living out God's glory is crucial.

So, returning to Genesis, man was created in God's image. Later, he ate the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Later, Jesus Christ came to restore us and accomplish His salvation in us. That salvation is not to let you travel to heaven. That salvation is to allow you to live out God's image while you are alive. Our God is the God of the living. This is the final thing that must happen.

What are the things that must happen in the future? All things will be united in Jesus Christ. All things were created by God and for God, for our Jesus Christ. Therefore, all things will be united in Jesus Christ. When you see this plan, it is wonderful, isn't it? Wonderful! There is no confusion. If you carefully read Genesis and Deuteronomy again, you will see many wonderful words that suddenly become a system.

First, understand God's plan. Come up here, and then I will show you what must happen in the future. Your worldview, your understanding of what the world is and what it means to live, your outlook on life, and your entire value system will suddenly change. In fact, God did not solve Old John's confusions, but Old John came here, saw these things, and was greatly shaken, shattering our original and inherent things.

I once met a person who reportedly died for three days and then came back to life. This person was actually in my hometown. I visited him, and this person received a revelation from an angel, telling him: "Tell your family not to bury you or cremate you, and you will come back to life on the third day." Later, he really stopped breathing, but his body was still soft and warm. Then his family waited there, and many brothers and sisters gathered around. He saw many things in heaven, and he shared some of them with me. I said, "Why didn't you take a picture and bring it back?" He said, "I couldn't bring it back. I couldn't take a picture. I forgot to bring my phone."

After telling me, he really came back to life on the third day. After he came back to life, he experienced very miraculous things. What he said was very miraculous, and his own experience was also very miraculous. But later, I felt that knowing God's word in understanding may be more practical. This matter also ended without a conclusion. Many people cared about what he said. He said that he was with God, and Jesus Christ told him these things.

But I do not think there is much point after I finish speaking. I do not think I will be like Old John. I believe that understanding the Bible and sharing it with everyone is more important. God brought Old John to this height, so where did he go? He went to the throne of God.

Saw the Throne of God

Many people ask me, how is that person doing? That person is just like that. Really, there is not much meaning to it. Do not fall into that state of liking to know these things.

Let us return here, we saw the throne of God. Today, I am preaching Revelation to you, not about that person. Why? I want to prove one thing, that he died for three days and then went to heaven and saw secret things. There is also a book called "Five and a Half Days in Heaven." I am not interested in these things at all. I do not even want you to pursue listening to God's voice or seeing visions. I do not want you to seek confirmation. Many people have been fooled badly because of pursuing these things.

Today, we see the throne of God, we see the throne of God set in heaven. Old John entered the spiritual realm, and then in the spiritual realm, he saw the throne of God set in heaven. Our God is in heaven. What does heaven mean? Heaven is the first heaven, the second heaven, and the third heaven. So the throne of our God is in the spiritual realm, and heaven is the spiritual realm. Then the spiritual realm of the devil and the spiritual realm of heaven are not the same spiritual realm. Remember, the spiritual realm of the devil is much lower than the spiritual realm of God. Old John saw the throne of God in heaven, which is what we often say. Then he saw seven spirits before the throne of God, which are the seven Spirits of God, and the seven lamps are the seven Spirits of God.

If we know this, what can we do? This is how I explain it: the things in the spiritual realm determine the things on earth. The things in the spiritual realm, especially in the spiritual realm of God in heaven, determine the things on earth. So Paul said: I was caught up to the third heaven and saw secret things, but I do not want to tell you. Telling you is like what we are saying today, Old John saw it, what is the point of writing these things? I do not know what he wrote these things for either.

"Also before the throne there was what looked like a sea of glass, clear as crystal. In the center, around the throne, were four living creatures, and they were covered with eyes, in front and in back. The first living creature was like a lion, the second was like an ox, the third had a face like a man, the fourth was like a flying eagle. Each of the four living creatures had six wings and was covered with eyes all around, even under its wings. Day and night they never stop saying: 'Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come.'" (Revelation 4:6-8)

I cannot explain it to you in such detail, but I have grasped one thing: because they are covered with eyes. You either look at things from the perspective of an ox, or from the perspective of a man, or from the perspective of an eagle, or from the perspective of a lion, covered with eyes.

So we people must know that the throne of God is supported by a lion, an ox, a man, and an eagle, and they are covered with eyes. What does it mean? It means that our perspective must change, our perspective must be at the height of God's throne to see these things. I ask everyone, what can be summarized from these four living creatures below the throne? To summarize, these four living creatures are covered with eyes, you must have eyes. The perspective of people is amazing.

Our Chinese Mingding Doctrine has a very incisive saying, that spiritual things determine earthly things. In the spiritual realm, the things on earth have long been determined. When you are born and when you die, it was all determined before the creation of the world, do not be surprised.

After having eyes, you will see that these four living creatures will never stop saying: Holy! Holy! Holy! Why? Because when looking at problems from the perspective of those four living creatures, they are below the throne of God, a little shorter than the throne. When they look at things from this height, they will see the holy God: Holy! Holy! Holy! The Lord God is the Almighty who was, and is, and is to come. Do you understand? So today we must know that God sees it this way! God sees this matter this way! Be sure to make it clear.

Someone asked me: "Have you studied theology?" I said: "I quit halfway." He said: "Why quit halfway? It is such a pity." What a pity? I spent money, I went to class, I spent time, I worked while going to school, the tuition was very expensive, very emotional. One day I asked the theology professor, I said: "How does Jesus see this matter?" I really wanted to know how Jesus saw this problem. The professor said: "I am not Jesus, how would I know?" I almost choked on my breath.

I am studying this theology, am I not studying how Jesus sees things? Is it not? I want to have the same perspective as God after I finish studying, at least I have to have the perspective of these four living creatures. I do not even have the perspective of these four living creatures, I do not even have the perspective of Jesus Christ, I do not even know how God sees it. What am I studying? I am studying a pile of garbage, it is all meaningless. So seeing the throne of God, everyone think about it, the throne of God is not even God, it is just the throne of God. Do you understand? It is too important how Jesus Christ sees it! Today, brothers and sisters, we must ask, what is God's will? What is God's heart?

Until today, many cursed people still think they are paying the price for God, and they are still training patience in the curse, making themselves extremely rigid, a bit like the rigidity of Pharaoh. Why suffer this sin? There is no glory at all. Why? Without the perspective of Jesus Christ! And without the perspective of these four living creatures! And do not know that He is the Almighty who was, and is, and is to come.

If you can summarize this sentence: Holy! Holy! Holy! Lord God, is the Almighty who was, and is, and is to come. You are amazing! Since I met such a lecturer, I think I will give up! What else to study? It is exhausting! Do you understand? What is the point of writing that stuff? But also thank God, I still got something, I know that building a church is not done by studying at a seminary.

Then going forward, I met a pastor, and I asked: "Have you studied theology?" He said: "Yes." I said: "Then is your study of theology useful for building a church?" He said: "No." Then I said: "Then did you learn what is useful?" He said: "No." Then I was even more sure, give up! I still have to read the word of God well, and be raised to the height of God's throne.

So I tell everyone, let go. Why? Because you can let go at the height of God's throne. Why do I say that living is vanity of vanities? Because when you stand on God's throne and look, that is the way it is. Because people live in the world, living so seriously, so hard, and working too hard, they make themselves sick!

So, every time I lead prayer, I say these words. You may be tired of hearing it, and I am a little tired of saying it. But I have to say it, many people are still living so seriously! They have cancer and are about to die, and they are still so serious! And taking care of a cancer patient, taking care of them so seriously! What for? Is it not? Living this life so wronged, so hard.

Why do people love money so much? Their perspective is too low. Some people have a little money and do not know who they are. Oh, I ask: How much money do you have? He said: Just one or two million RMB, and I have to manage my finances. I tell you, if you do not manage your finances, you have surpassed 60% of people. Then if you manage your finances, the leeks being cut are the people who manage their finances!

Brothers and sisters, standing at the height of God's throne, I give our brothers and sisters and co-workers a very unconventional request. Why is it unconventional? The church does not save money, the church does not manage finances, the church only does one thing, that is, the church brings brothers and sisters into God's blessing, and brings them to the height of God's throne to see problems.

Is money not just paper money? When you stand at the height of God's throne, you will praise God day and night, saying: Holy! Holy! The Almighty who was, and is, and is to come! Everything is in your hands! How good! What are you worried about? Depression, you do not know how powerful God is! So God uses our praise as His throne. What is praise? You know that God is an almighty God. This is called praising God. Do you understand?

So when we praise, we know that when the four living creatures give glory, honor, and thanks to the one who sits on the throne and lives forever and ever, the twenty-four elders fall down before the throne and worship Him.

Brothers and sisters, start to raise your perspective and solve many confusions. All the confusions are because you do not know that He is the Almighty who was, and is, and is to come. Some brothers and sisters tell me: Teacher, let me tell you a little secret. After telling me, I said: What do I need to know this for? This is spreading nonsense. Can everyone understand? Just these petty things. I trust in the Almighty God who was, and is, and is to come, can God not manage it? I do not care much about these trivial things. So, many things are gone among us. It is not that I think my height is enough, but when I look at problems, I am working hard to see God's heart.

Saw God Sitting on the Throne

My God, saw God sitting on the throne! Did you see the throne? I saw it. Did you see God on the throne? I saw it. Forever and ever, glory, honor, and authority, all belong to Him. Then what are you worried about? We are worried about this and worried about that all day long, it is just living too seriously. You die if you are serious, you look at it from a human perspective, he died at fifty years old, what a pity. In fact, he has lived twenty years longer than Jesus, what is there to regret? Someone lives to sixty years old: I cannot die, I have to work hard to live. Suffering like this, and still working hard to live. I tell everyone, sometimes it is really annoying.

Every time I lead prayer, I really hope that brothers and sisters can see God sitting on the throne. Not seeing you build the church into a large church with sixteen thousand seats, not seeing the seats in the church are full of people, not seeing the church is decorated luxuriously, what is the point of that? Is it not? We must see that God's people can recognize this Almighty God, see God, see His glory, His honor, and His authority. See how wonderful it is when we are united with God! Do you understand?

If I can give you the best grace, it is to see through life and death. In my theological system, money is just paper money. When we die, who do we give these things to? It is useless. And giving it is meaningless, if you have God, what do you need that for? So today, brothers and sisters, we must see God sitting on the throne. I also want to live out God's glory! I want to behold God's beauty! How good, is it not? Start to thirst, and you will have God's perspective.

Standing at that height and watching, you will find that many things in the world are disgusting, dirty, and filthy. Do not think that being president is so great, the little old man is exhausted, right? And did not make the country greater. We people, until today, many Christians are still living in the political system of the world, is it not very strange? The kingdom of our Lord Jesus Christ is based on the throne of God in heaven, and God sitting on the throne, is it not? Forever and ever. Brothers and sisters, start to have the perspective of eternity, have the height of God's throne, see God's glory, honor, and authority, see God's omnipotence, and see God's plan.

Saw Twenty-Four Elders

You ask me, what are these twenty-four elders? I do not know, because old John did not say either. He only saw twenty-four elders dressed in white robes. I really cannot explain what this term "elder" means. What exactly is it? If you ask me, Peter and James of the early church, including old John, they were all elders. I am not too keen on being such an elder. I think we have seen these twenty-four. As for whether they are the twelve apostles plus the twelve tribes or something else, never mind that. We only care about one thing: they wear golden crowns on their heads, are dressed in white robes, and prostrate themselves before God to worship Him.

If we possess God-like vision, reaching that height, I tell you, it is a position of elder. The elders mentioned in Revelation are not the elders on earth. Those are dressed in white robes and wear golden crowns. These are the victorious people. To be victorious means you have lived out the image of God, because you know the God who sits on the throne, and the God on the throne knows you. Then you can come before God and be one with Him, through prostrating yourself before God.

In this matter, let me explain to everyone, prostrating oneself before God is very important. You know, in Genesis, when Jacob was about to cross the Jabbok River, he wrestled with the angel of God and was pinned to the ground. What did he do? He grabbed the angel's thigh and refused to let go: "Unless you bless me, I will not let you go." Later, God said, "You shall be called Israel, for you have striven with God and with men, and have prevailed."

If you strive with God and prevail, I really do not understand what this means. What kind of victory is this? Being pinned to the ground by the angel of God, with a crippled leg, and yet it is called victory? This is victory. Submitting to God, believing in God's blessing, believing in the Almighty who was, and is, and is to come, this is victory. What is gained? The blessing of God is gained, the blessing of God is won. And what is the result? It is difficult for anyone to kill him! Esau came to Jacob and forgot that he wanted to kill him. He forgot what he came for. Instead, he came to embrace him and weep bitterly. So, I tell you, this is victory.

Prostrating oneself before God to worship Him, knowing that God is the God who sits on the throne, you will receive a golden crown and be dressed in white robes, washed clean by the precious blood of Jesus Christ. Then you will declare: "Our Lord and our God, You are worthy to receive glory and honor and power." Do you understand? Those who come before God and submit receive golden crowns and are dressed in white robes. Not just twenty-four. As for whether it is twenty-four or twenty-five, we do not care about that. We only care that this is a prophecy of one thing: a theology of victory, a victorious theological system.

All Things Created by God's Will

If you do not know that all things were created by God's will, you are in trouble. You will live in your own little world, living miserably. When you reach that height, you will understand that all things were created by God's will. Today, the theme we want to share is viewing everything from the height of God's throne. We saw the four living creatures, we also saw the God sitting on the throne, and we also saw the twenty-four elders. After seeing all this, we also saw what the twenty-four elders declared: all things were created by God's will.

Then you should understand one thing: was Satan created by God? Satan was also created by God. So many people are confused: God, why did you create Satan? God said: "I willed it." So these fallen angels, who to this day rule the powers of darkness in the world, who created them? God created them. Why did God create them? Seeing that all things were created by God's will, that is how it is done. God said: "I willed it."

There is another sentence that everyone should understand: God makes all things beautiful in their time. This tree of the knowledge of good and evil was created exceptionally well. Now, it is not just one tree in the garden, but all along the avenues are trees of the knowledge of good and evil. The fruit looks so good, and eating it gives wisdom. As a result, they eat basket after basket, eating until today, eating until they feel very uncomfortable.

So, brothers and sisters, do you know what God's will really is? God's will is so powerful. He created Satan, He created these fallen angels, and He created man. Each is beautiful in its time. How is it beautiful? A victorious person is truly beautiful.

I will tell everyone something that may make many people think I am a bit arrogant, but I am not. I think that although there were tears and sweat in the past, and it was very hard, it is really good to have walked through victory step by step. Now I feel that it would be boring without demons. Casting out demons is so good, isn't it? All are created according to God's will. So what exactly is God's will? I tell you, God's will is to sift out the treasures through this screening mechanism, through this spiritual warfare screening mechanism, those who are dressed in white robes and wear golden crowns.

Some people say: "Teacher, actually it is okay for me to just go to heaven and be a cleaner. I do not care about having a crown." I tell you: there is no such thing in heaven. There is no cleaning job in heaven. Do you understand? So today we must thank God.

When I was casting out some demons, I asked: "Who are you?" It said: "I am 'Coming and Going'." It is a name from "Journey to the West." I said: "Then who are you?" "I am 'Going and Coming'." It is the same name. Later, I discovered that the names of the little demons in "Journey to the West" are actually real. It is so amazing. Without these demons, what would we do? Without these demons, could we sift out the victorious people? This is so interesting.

So I tell everyone, I enjoy being this pastor so much. It is so good. And you know what? Some time ago, there were a few demon names that were very interesting. The demon names were Ben Bo Er Ba and Ba Bo Er Ben. So good! So when you stand on God's throne and look at the problem, you will know that all things were created by God's will. We either live in God's will or we live in your own will.

How wonderful it is to live in God's will and be victorious! So God is such a God. So you either play this game, or you are eliminated by this game. If a person lives victoriously in this world, even if it means dying, they do not care about their own life. What else can defeat you? God created all things so well.

Jesus came into this world and said: "A person's enemies will be the members of his own household." Listen to this, it is difficult to understand, right? People must forsake this and forsake that for the sake of God's kingdom, forsake wives, children, parents, fields, and houses, all for the sake of God's will. They must forsake everything, and there is no one who will not receive a hundredfold in this age and eternal life in the age to come. So you know that God's will is victory, right? This is why Chinese Mingding Doctrine is a theology of victory.

Today, brothers and sisters, you live too seriously, you are too intense, you are too intense about these trivial matters in the world. The moment you lie in a coffin, it becomes meaningless. Your love and your hate all vanish like bubbles. So let us all live happily, okay? Can we know God's will? Nothing can deprive us of the grace we have received from God within us. Overcome it, it is that simple.

No More Confusion

Perhaps today, when you read Revelation again, if you fall into a pit and are confused about what this is and what that is, you will be bewildered. But if you follow my train of thought, viewing everything from the height of God's throne, there will be no more confusion. Are you still confused? Are we all still confused? There is no more confusion. Is there any Q&A session today?

It is just that we do not know how powerful God is. If we obey God's will, according to God's word, and obey God's Spirit. Remember, all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God. All who rely on the power of the Spirit of God to put to death the deeds of the body can live out the glorious image of God. It is not that you are good enough, it is that you are rotten enough, but God will definitely help you.

So if we still have any confusion today, it is because of one thing: height. If your height is sufficient, and you were able to live to today with a frown, can you live to tomorrow with joy? I wish that all brothers and sisters could understand what I am saying.

This worldly logical system is too confusing, isn't it? Because we do not know the purpose for which God created these things, we do not know how wonderful it is to obey God's will. Being busy with this and busy with that, making yourself sick, what is the point? It is all vanity of vanities. If we are at the height of the spiritual realm, not the spiritual realm of the devil, but the spiritual realm of God, looking again from the height of God's throne, many problems will be easily solved. There is no need to be so intense. Do you understand?

For example, a sister went back to her hometown. Oh my goodness, the basin was covered in grime. How could it be used? She had just cleaned the house during the Spring Festival. She is a very lovely sister. Do you ask me how spiritual she is? She is not that spiritual, but at least she can keep her life clean. Only a few months later, in May, she went back and the basin was covered in grime again.

The people in her family are all useless. They do not even want to wash a basin clean. I told her: "If the basin is like this, everything will be like this. They go to the toilet and do not wipe their bottoms clean, and they still live to this day. Do you understand? They have not died. What are you worried about? You clean it for them, but you will never finish cleaning it." She said: "Teacher, what you said is true."

It is not just "true." The question is, from when can we live our lives clearly, living according to God's will? Today we pick this thorn, tomorrow we pick that thorn, and then we become a thorn-picker all day long. Is that not tragic? Actually, I tell you, God is sustaining us. As long as we obey God's will and live, we will lack no good thing. Is there still any confusion?

So, brothers and sisters, see through life and death, see through living, and from now on offer yourselves as a living sacrifice, living in God's grace according to God's will, living out God's glory, honor, and power, and trampling the devil under your feet. How wonderful! It is difficult not to live out God's glory. Is there still pressure at work? No. Are there still those fears at work? No. Is there still that restlessness inside? No. Is there still that attitude of muddling through? No. Living without pressure, and yet doing everything seriously, as if doing it for God.

Have you stood at the height of God's throne? If you have not yet stood at the height of God's throne, may the heavens open before you, may the gates of heaven open, may you ascend there to see what must take place in the future. When you see what must take place in the future, these things of the world are all rubbish. This is the future when we will all be completely united with God and with Jesus Christ, which is what we call the union of heaven and man. We are completely united with Jesus Christ. All things were created for Jesus Christ, and all things were created through Jesus Christ. The Apostle Paul clearly explained this matter.

Thank God, suddenly our hearts are enlightened, suddenly we feel especially open inside. Is that how it is? This is comfortable, isn't it? The church is not held up by my hands, it is held up by God's hands. Do I need to be nervous? I do not need to be nervous. It is not that after you die, you worry about who this will be handed over to. This is not my business, this is God's business. I do not need to worry unnecessarily. We do not need to make ourselves so miserable in this world. God will surely protect you. Amen!

May God bless everyone!
