Introduction

Good morning, everyone. We begin the seventh session of the series Building God's Glorious Church. Building God's Glorious Church is the fundamental solution to problems. If God is among us, if God is with you, would you still be in debt? I have never seen such a situation where a person has God with them and is still heavily in debt. If God is with me, will my life be difficult? No. Nor have I heard anyone say, God is with me, and I am full of sickness, yet I still persevere in faith. See how great I am. Does that happen? That is a great myth.

Therefore, building God's Glorious Church requires caution. The seventh session is titled Be careful, make them according to the pattern shown to you on the mountain. I thank God that I developed a careful professional habit when I was an engineer. Because as an engineer, you cannot do a good job without being careful. Caution is not just a requirement for engineers; it is required of all who want to build God's Glorious Church. Be cautious in your work, or you will become like Nadab and Abihu and be burned to death before God.

Last night, I and several colleagues watched a lot of materials about building God's Glorious Church online, talking about everything. Is that the pattern God has shown us? No, it is not. Sometimes people say, You are the only one who is right. I say, No, it is God who is right.

Our brothers and sisters must follow theology, be cautious and rigorous. For example, as an aerospace engineer, you send people into the sky, and you must ensure they can land safely. Would you dare to sit on a plane that cannot land? If you get on a plane that can fly up but cannot come down, then it is finished. So, aerospace engineers must be rigorous.

A colleague told me that once, test pilots flew a plane developed by their engineers. There were four test pilots on board, and three of them died. During the landing process, when the plane was a short distance from the ground, the bottom of the plane suddenly turned upwards, and the cockpit rubbed on the ground, eventually exploding like sandpaper. Later, they checked the cause of the accident and found that the engineer had written 1 instead of -1 in one place. The difference between -1 and 1 is not just a minus sign; it is a human life.

Later, when I became a pastor, I knew that building God's Glorious Church required even more caution and to do it according to the pattern God has shown. This is working in the spiritual realm. Until now, we still adhere to a basic principle, which is caution. Is that what God has shown you? If it is not, it is best not to do it. My instructions are not effective; God's instructions are effective. My meaning is not important; God's meaning is important.

In fact, there is no most rigorous, only more rigorous. Until now, I am still doing God's work with trepidation, adhering to this principle. This is a work that God is present in; this is not a joke. I do not want to become like Nadab and Abihu. I tell you, Chinese Mingding Destiny explains many strange phenomena. For example, someone said, Teacher, look, this pastor loves the Lord very much, but how did he get cancer? Some of the people he mentioned are people I know. If you also know him, you will know where the problem lies.

If he builds the church according to people's ideas, will he not become like Nadab and Abihu? If you want to be Nadab and Abihu, it is easy; just build the church casually. Do not just put up a church sign but without God's presence, attracting a group of demons. If the church is not built according to God's will but according to the will of demons, then it is troublesome.

Be careful, make everything according to the pattern God has shown us on the mountain. Do you understand? When we were building the church, we first built a cursed church, but I was soft-hearted and quickly realized that this was not right, so I quickly changed it.

In the past, we thought that if we told people about Jesus, they would not come. Does everyone have this idea? It must be similar to mine. You tell people about Jesus, and they will come? It seems unlikely, right? That was the idea at the time. That is okay, I will tell him about Jesus later. What do you rely on to attract people? Relying on braised beef, roast chicken, and roast duck? Is that preaching the gospel? That is preaching roast chicken, roast duck, and braised beef.

Later, I deeply repented. Our Jesus is much better than braised beef. It is so good to talk about Jesus because all the problems in a person's life are inseparable from Jesus and inseparable from God. We have too many problems here. All your problems at work and in life need God.

At that time, some people in the church rented houses and had problems with the landlord, so the pastor would mediate. There were also problems with finding work. Anyway, there were many problems. Now these problems are almost gone. Even if someone comes with a problem at work, they know that this is a person living in a curse and should first fix the matter of being blessed. It is not okay for people not to be rigorous.

It is a bit difficult for others to put a hat on us. A pastor came to me and said, Teacher, many people ask me if you are heretics. I said, What do you say? He said, I have been investigating for a long time, and I have started listening on your website. He really listened a lot. I said, What did you find after your investigation? Are we heretics? He said, You are not heretics, but you are quite extreme. I said, How are we extreme? Is it extreme to carefully obey God's words? He said, Your standards for God are very extreme. Our standard is that we do what God says.

We must be extreme in pursuing God's words and cannot be careless. We cannot compromise at all in being rigorous and carefully obeying God's words. There are too many examples of not building the church according to God's pattern and being careless.

Building a church requires several basic elements. The first element is to read the Bible and deal with the knowledge of good and evil. The second element is prayer. The third element is to be like Jesus and do healing and deliverance like Jesus. I have written a book called Doing Healing and Deliverance Like Jesus. Jesus is the Jesus who heals the sick and casts out demons. If you are a Christian who does not heal the sick and cast out demons, then you are getting into heresy.

In the past few years, I have found that there are many examples of not building the church according to God's pattern. I have deeply learned a lesson. I have carefully observed that there are many incomprehensible phenomena in the church circle, and in the end, they are all attributed to one reason: not carefully obeying God's words.

Many years ago, a sister who leaked urine came to me for prayer. She was old and still wearing diapers. Later, I prayed with her, and the urine leakage improved. Did the person repent? No. She still did not know that God is only present in our place, and she thought, Are you the only ones who are right? Is it not the same in any church?

Some churches are urine-leaking churches, and some churches are healing and deliverance churches. They are not the same. Some churches are cancer-causing churches, and some churches are cancer-healing churches. Can they be the same? Some churches carefully obey God's words, and some churches are loose and confused. It is really sighing.

Once, someone invited me to attend their meeting. When the pastor was leading the meeting, as soon as he prayed, everyone fell to the ground. In the end, I did not understand what was going on. After falling, that was the anointing of God. It looked so powerful.

Later, they said, Teacher, come and serve. So, I served simply. I knew about this thing of falling earlier than they did. The first time people fell was when I first believed in the Lord. It was very popular in the church. It was a game from decades ago that they are still playing. Now you can see a lot of videos of people falling. One person was a little dazed, wondering why everyone else had fallen, but he was the only one who had not fallen. When he saw that everyone else had fallen, he quickly fell down too.

I recalled the scenes I had seen before. In that era, I found that everyone around me fell as soon as they went up, and then it was over. I was very familiar with it. After a few months, people were still the same. I wondered, what is the use of making people fall back and forth? Is the feeling of falling down good? Then you go to the church, fall down, and lie there for a nap. What is the use? Until now, I have not understood what its use is.

As a result, they asked me to serve on the spot. I dislike the thing that people fall down and are still the same. I said, People with illnesses can raise their hands. Oh my goodness, there were people with cancer and depression, all very serious illnesses. I thought, what was all that falling for just now if they are still the same? If they are all better, then thank God, you made people fall down correctly.

I felt that this thing was quite evil, so I served what I am best at: lumbar and cervical spine pain. I am best at these pains in the lumbar spine, cervical spine, shoulders, and hip bones. I asked the people behind to hold the shoulders of the people in front and pray for them together. After praying, all the lumbar and cervical spine pain was gone. This is the appearance of Jesus.

Jesus is the Jesus who heals and delivers. When have you ever seen Jesus make people fall down and then they are still the same? Can we say that there is no work of the Spirit of God when people fall down? Certainly there is. But what happens later is not known. There are Bible records of falling at the time, but that is not theology.

Later, I developed a habit. I would wonder if Jesus did this. If Jesus did not do this, then I would not do this either. This is doing things according to the example of Jesus. For example, if two brothers come to Jesus to divide their property, does Jesus care? Jesus said, Go, go, go. I do not care. If a couple quarrels and comes to Jesus for judgment, Jesus also said, Go, go, go. I do not care. If someone with an illness comes to Jesus, Jesus will definitely heal them. This is the appearance of Jesus. Jesus has already revealed this matter to us.

Now many churches hold marriage retreats, arranging divorced couples on a boat, then having them wear wedding dresses, holding ceremonies, and promoting lifelong commitment and monogamy. Did Jesus do these things? No. After the ceremony, were the problems solved in the end? None of the problems were solved. We should learn from Jesus. We should not do what Jesus did not do, and we should do what Jesus did well. This way, things will be simple.

On the road to building God's Glorious Church, one thing that cannot be blasphemed is to read the Bible and learn the word of God, which was written with the blood of Jesus Christ and the prophets. I found many pastors online who like to talk about Chicken Soup for the Soul: God wants to bless you. It sounds so comfortable. When you come to Chinese Mingding Destiny, you are asked to give up this and give up that, with a lot of rules. Others do not have these requirements. Because there are no these requirements, people have this big pile of problems. Our brothers and sisters must restart and return to the word of God and return to the Book of Acts.

One of the sisters among us told me that in her former church, she was most afraid of being lined up to pray after someone because that person could pray for an hour without repeating anything, and the people behind had to wait for him. Then they put him at the end, otherwise, everything would be said by him, and how would the people behind pray? Later, when this person came among us, we found that he was deeply oppressed. He liked to watch pornographic films when he had nothing to do. What did you pray for in the church? Just to show your presence.

We need to have a deeper understanding of these things. We must build the church according to the key points that Jesus talked about. What Jesus wants are disciples, not gorgeous prayer words. What Jesus wants is a group of disciples who are willing to give up parents, brothers, sisters, wives, children, houses, and fields for Jesus Christ. Everyone should not think that being a disciple of Jesus Christ is difficult. This is a matter of grace.

Scripture

The scripture we are going to talk about now is Exodus chapter 25, verse 40, the words of God to Moses when he built the tabernacle of God. Later, when I read the Bible, I found that the temple built by David and Solomon, as well as the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem, were all left over from that period and were built according to God's revelation. Building according to God's revelation, this sentence is deeply imprinted in my mind.

God, may you lead me to build your Glorious Church according to your will, cautiously and rigorously. God's words are not a joke. Be sure to build according to God's instructions. When God's glory is revealed, some people become Nadab and Abihu and are directly burned to death. When God's glory descends, and God's revelation is given to us, many people's problems are solved. Many captives are released, and the oppressed are set free.

See that you make them after the pattern for them, which is being shown you on the mountain. (Exodus 25:40)

See that you make them after the pattern for them, which is being shown you on the mountain. This sentence is so simple, is it not difficult? Building God's Church according to God's words is not difficult, but building God's Church according to people's ideas is very difficult. It creates cancer, cerebral infarction, myocardial infarction, and tubes in the hospital. How difficult is that?

Prayer

Let us pray together. God, give us a determination to choose to carefully obey your words. God, give us a determination to be inspired by your words to build your church, to build a church where you are present, and to do according to your will.

We believe in your words and build according to what you have instructed. Your glory will surely fill us, and your will will be fulfilled among us. God, you are among us, let the captives be released, and the oppressed be set free. Let us know that we live for you; you are everything to us. In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Scripture Background

The background of this scripture refers to the Israelites being slaves in Egypt for hundreds of years in the Book of Exodus. Later, they were so tired that they cried out to God, and God chose Moses to bring them out of Egypt. Several million Israelites were about to leave Egypt, which was a heavy blow to the Egyptian economy. Egypt was very miserable. Millions of people suddenly wanted to leave, slaves, who were all working people and creating value.

If hundreds of thousands of maids in Singapore leave, then Singapore will be in big trouble. You can see many maid agencies and maid training on the street. The most important thing in Singapore is that it cannot be without maids. When you work in the office, a few old women gather together and talk about maids.

After the Israelites came out of Egypt, they hit the Egyptian economy hard. Do you know if the Pharaoh of Egypt would let them leave easily? What would happen to Egypt's labor force if they left? So, Pharaoh led his army to chase after them, so that Pharaoh and his army were sunk to the bottom of the Red Sea.

The Israelites then wandered in the wilderness and eventually reached Mount Sinai. Moses went up the mountain and was with God for forty days and nights. How many words can you write and how many pictures can you draw in forty days and nights! The entire work plan, including how to build God's tabernacle, is described in detail in the Book of Exodus. Moses was really great and was able to clearly describe the method of building the temple in words.

Moses described how to build God's Glorious Tabernacle in forty days and nights, and God also hopes to build His Glorious Church among us. In the information Moses received on the mountain, one sentence is particularly important: Be careful, make them according to the pattern shown to you on the mountain. Every object must be made according to God's instructions.

Among them, one question is very curious: why did Moses not ask God why he wanted to build it this way? Moses faces God, and God tells him step by step what to do, but Moses never asks why. Once someone asks why, things may become complicated.

Because once people ask why build it this way, it is broken, because you want to know the secret. The secret belongs to the Lord God. Even if God tells you, you will not understand the explanation. Why is this built this way? The reason is very simple: these things are made according to the appearance of heaven. Moses is very powerful. If we go up, we will offer strange fire like Nadab and Abihu.

So, do not try to explain the Bible like this, or you will be finished, and it will be difficult for you to carefully obey God's words. Because people tell you how to do this and how to do that. I will read it to you. You must make a cabinet of acacia wood, two and a half cubits long, one and a half cubits wide, and one and a half cubits high, and then cover the inside and outside with pure gold, etc. It tells a lot. Does it tell why? I tell you, God will tell you, I am willing to do this. Are you building the tabernacle for God to live in? That's for God to live in. God tells you, I want it like this, is there a problem? No problem. You cannot ask God, why do you want this kind of tabernacle?

====输出开始
Some people prefer minimalist decor; others favour the Neo-Chinese style. Some opt for the Japanese aesthetic; still others, the rustic mountain lodge feel. And there are those who like the farmhouse look. That person simply has an affinity for that style. So I tell you, there is no why. The reason is simply an attitude that has been cultivated. In building God's glorious church, we sorely need an attitude of meticulous adherence. Therefore, in studying the Bible, be careful not to do so in a manner that God finds repugnant.

In the Bible, Jesus spoke so much, made so many demands, but did He give reasons for them? No, He did not. I will build My church on this rock, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. Whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. No reasons given.

Why can't the church be built on sand? Why must it be built on rock? God would say, Forget it. With your paltry efforts, just get out of My sight. Have any of you been in management? As a manager, the most annoying thing is someone who constantly asks Why? I once had a fresh graduate who came in and immediately asked, Why do we do it this way? Looking at him, I thought, even if I explained it to you, you wouldn't understand. He would have been mortified.

I said, I can tell you, this is the result of years of accumulated experience. Doing it this way reduces the likelihood of errors. He asked, Why? I said, There's no why. You wouldn't understand even if I explained it. So why does God do it this way? It is to cultivate an attitude, that every item is made according to God's will.

This is an attitude of meticulous adherence. If God says fifty tent pegs, then it must be fifty tent pegs. You cannot make do with forty-nine. Is forty-nine strong enough? Yes. Can I make the pegs thicker, use forty-eight and still be alright? But that is not what God wants. So there's no why. From our first week, we will gradually understand that in Exodus chapter 25, God is testing people, examining what kind of person you really are. There must be this kind of meticulous attitude, so all items must be made according to what God instructs.

There is a particularly good passage in the Bible – how God commanded Moses, so Moses carried it out. Moses was an extraordinary man. Many years ago, when I was reading Exodus, I said, God, I too want to be like Moses. Without asking why, whatever You ask me to do, I will do. As I did, God's glory manifested. I did not become Nadab and Abihu; I became Moses. That is wonderful. So many people study the Bible, asking what is this, what is that, explaining the whys, as if they are defending God.

For example, when the Israelites left Egypt and entered Canaan, they were to kill all the firstborn in the Egyptian families. You say, God, why did You do that? Why kill so many people? Many of the firstborn were good people; why did You kill them all? Yes, God killed them all. Upon reaching Canaan, they were to wipe out all the Canaanites. Can you understand that?

Many people defend God, saying It's not like that... What are you defending? Does God not have the right to do so? If God wants to kill, let Him kill, as long as He doesn't kill me. When I say this, don't think I'm being selfish. This is something we cannot control. You can't say, God, don't kill them, then kill me instead. That's not how it works.

This is the background to the building of God's tabernacle, and how the golden lampstand was constructed, how the Ark of the Covenant was constructed, and how the table was constructed. Within, a Holy Place and a Most Holy Place were constructed. In the Holy Place were the table and the golden lampstand; in the Most Holy Place was the Ark of the Covenant. The Most Holy Place was entered by the High Priest only once a year; no one else could enter, or they would perish.

When the High Priest entered, they feared he would die inside, and no one would be able to rush in to carry him out. So they tied a rope around his waist. If he died, they would pull him out. This is the rationale. Seeing the Holy Place and the Most Holy Place is to see God's presence. The above is the background to this passage of scripture.

## Offerings

The Lord said to Moses, “Tell the Israelites to bring me an offering. You are to receive the offering for me from everyone whose heart prompts them to give. These are the offerings you are to receive from them: gold, silver and bronze; blue, purple and scarlet yarn and fine linen; goat hair; ram skins dyed red and hides of sea cows; acacia wood; olive oil for the light; spices for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense; onyx stones and other gems for the setting of the ephod and breastplate. Then have them make a sanctuary for me, and I will dwell among them. Make this tabernacle and all its furnishings exactly like the pattern I will show you.

This matter of offerings is very interesting. Many churches, when encouraging people to give offerings, say Bring your things! People then bring things they no longer need – old clothes, tattered quilts... All they bring are things they don't want. When our church first started, I said Don't bring your old, unused rice cookers and kettles. If you give God things you don't need, do you think the church is a junkyard? After you bring them, I would have to dispose of the junk.

We never do such things. What God wants is gold, silver, bronze, blue, purple, scarlet yarn, fine linen, goat hair, ram skins dyed red, hides of sea cows, and acacia wood. These are all good things. Remember, the things you despise, you give to God? Do you think God would value it? For example, if you were to meet your local mayor or governor, would you bring them your old, unused kettle? Then you would have a very difficult life. Can you treat God this way?

I wonder, what is God trying to do by doing this? God wants you to feel the pain, to feel the pinch. In the early years of giving, I believed that I had to give to the point of feeling the pain. Later, it became a habit, and I no longer felt the pain, what pain is there in taking advantage of a good deal?

The smartest decision I have made in my life is to give. I would give even if it killed me. The reason is simple. If God gives me ten dollars, I give Him one dollar. If God gives me a million, I give Him one hundred thousand. If God gives me ten million, I give Him one million. I still have nine million left. Isn't this obviously taking advantage of a good deal? Therefore, giving is grace. Among us, there is no shyness in talking about giving; giving is something that allows you to gain. Therefore, to build a church, one must give.

In the beginning, we used roast chicken, roast duck, and braised beef to attract people. All we attracted were gluttons. Later, the roast chicken and roast duck were gone, replaced with boxed meals. Then, the boxed meals were gone, replaced with a few dollars worth of fruit. Next, the fruit was gone, replaced with bottled water. Finally, you had to put in a one-dollar coin to get a bottle of water. I'll tell you the truth, I buy them wholesale for twenty cents and charge one dollar. Some people say, Why do you do this? Because the church is a place for giving; it is a place to train you to give. If you are new, you must develop the habit of giving.

The church is not to train a group of selfish people, but to train a group of people who are willing to offer themselves to God. If you are unwilling to give, then go do something else; giving is very important. Even now, I tell you, the church is still a place to train people to give.

For example, if you do writing ministry, that is grace. Some pastors see us doing writing ministry and they want to do it too. But our writing ministry is to train people in the attitude of giving. Their writing ministry, however, costs money. How much per hour? They hire people to help. Can it be done? It cannot be done. The church cannot train people to be selfish; the church must train people to give.

It is not that we desperately need giving. Rather, people desperately need to become givers, for that is grace. Take out your treasure – that is what it means to build God's glorious church. You will then have a portion of God's glory upon you.

## The Sanctuary

**Make a table of acacia wood: Two cubits long, a cubit wide and a cubit and a half high. Overlay it with pure gold and make a gold molding around it. Also make around it a rim a handbreadth wide and put a gold molding on the rim. Make four gold rings for it and fasten them to the four corners, where the four legs are. The rings are to be close to the rim to hold the poles used in carrying the table. Make the poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold, so that the table may be carried with them. And make its plates and dishes of pure gold, as well as its pitchers and bowls for the pouring out of offerings. Put the bread of the Presence on this table to be before me at all times.**

**Make a lampstand of pure gold. Hammer out its base and shaft, and make its flowerlike cups, buds and blossoms of one piece with them. Six branches are to extend from the sides of the lampstand—three on one side and three on the other. Three cups shaped like almond flowers with buds and blossoms are to be on one branch, three on another branch, and the same for all six branches extending from the lampstand. And on the lampstand there are to be four cups shaped like almond flowers with buds and blossoms. One bud shall be under the first set of branches that extend from the lampstand, a second bud under the second set, and a third bud under the third set—six branches in all that extend from the lampstand. Their buds and branches are to be of one piece with the lampstand, hammered out of pure gold. Then make its seven lamps and set them up on it so that they light the space in front of it. Its wick trimmers and trays are to be of pure gold. A talent of pure gold is to be used for the lampstand and all these accessories. See that you make these things according to the pattern shown you on the mountain. (Exodus 25:23-40)**

So what is the sanctuary for? We can receive God's word in this place. It is a place to meet with God, so that God may be in our midst. Priests can enter the sanctuary, but ordinary people cannot. Inside the sanctuary are the table, the bread of the Presence, and the golden lampstand. So what is the building of God's glorious church? It is the building of a place where there is God's Spirit and God's word. The bread of the Presence is the word of God, and the golden lampstand is the Spirit of God. If you read Revelation, you will know that it allows God to be in our midst, allowing us to meet with God.

Therefore, to build a church, there must be the bread of the Presence, which is the word of God, and there must be the golden lampstand, which is the Spirit of God. The seven Spirits of God are the seven lampstands. We must know that the Spirit of God dwells within us and our eyes are bright, because the eyes are the windows to the soul. Whether or not a person has the Spirit of God in their heart can be seen through their eyes.

If you find that a person's eyes are dim, that person needs to pray more in the spirit – both praying in tongues and praying with understanding, being filled with the knowledge of God in understanding, and constantly practicing in the spirit. There must be much praying in tongues, allowing God's Spirit to move upon you. This is called the golden lampstand.

So what do priests do? They tend to the lamps, constantly tending to the lamps, not letting them go out. Sometimes I think, such a small bowl, after you add some oil, it burns out in a little while, and then you have to add more oil, and then you have to add more oil again. If you oversleep and the lamp goes out, that would be troublesome.

So you have to tend to the lamp. Why not just install an oil pipe that connects directly to a large oil drum outside, so it can burn forever, right? Such a small lamp bowl, the priest has to come in and add oil little by little. The priest needs to tend to it. So people need to pray in tongues a lot, not just play旋风and listen. You must open your mouth and pray along. People cannot be lazy.

When we built God's glorious church, the first few things we did were according to God's word. Training people to give time and money, giving your most precious things to God. In the early days when our church had just began, all of Singapore's public holidays were taken to fast and pray. After we finish praying, we add in some sharing, then everyone would go and do other things.

Everyone in the church came to participate, and God was truly in our midst. The church trains people to read God's word. When you come to Chinese Mingding Destiny, mustn't you take notes? You must know that taking notes is the norm. If you don't take notes, what are you here for? You can't let it go in one ear and out the other. Later, many people who come here live a very fulfilling life, squeezing out the time to scroll through Douyin and go out to play. It prevents a lot of disasters and avoids being scammed. This place is the sanctuary.

## The Most Holy Place

In the Most Holy Place are the Mercy Seat and the Ark of the Covenant. Above the Mercy Seat are two cherubim. Inside the Ark of the Covenant are the Ten Commandments. God would reveal Himself to Moses there, to convey the things about the future to the Israelites. The High Priest enters the Most Holy Place once a year. Has the High Priest ever died in the Most Holy Place? It seems that there have been such cases. So God made a backup plan – to attach a rope and a bell. If something goes wrong, the body can be pulled out. The Most Holy Place is a place to meet with God, to speak with God.

In building God's glorious church, the Ark of the Covenant and the tablets of the law are the Ten Commandments. Everyone must not think that these are the Ten Commandments of the Old Testament. It is a covenant made with God; it is the foundation of faith. Therefore, once touched, it will certainly be cursed. The Ark of the Covenant, the tablets of the law, and the cherubim are a place to meet and speak with God. God wants to build everything with gold. So the church is to build the Outer Court, the Holy Place, and the Most Holy Place. The Most Holy Place is Jesus Christ.

Jesus Christ has become our High Priest, sanctified once and for all by offering Himself once, solving all the problems of later sacrifices. Everyone must know that the requirements of the New Testament far surpass those of the Old Testament, because Jesus has opened up a new path for us, not to offer bulls and sheep, but to offer ourselves. When you obtain Mingding Destiny and offer yourself up, then you can come to the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus Christ, to receive from God the things concerning us.

To build God's glorious church, it must be built into a Most Holy Place. What is it to build a Most Holy Place? It is to offer oneself up completely like Jesus – no longer a fleshly person, but a son of God, faithful in God's household. Then you have reached the Most Holy Place.

Now I am still waiting for that day to come, when we can speak with God face to face, and receive from God the things concerning His church and His people. I don't know which stage you are at. You may still be outside the door, or perhaps you have entered the gate and are still in the outer courtyard, or perhaps you have passed the hand basin, then passed the washing basin, and then you walk and walk, and you walk into the Most Holy Place.

If you walk into the Most Holy Place, you will certainly be like Jesus. You know, Chinese Mingding Destiny is to allow us to live out the likeness of Jesus Christ. This is called salvation. To live out the likeness of Jesus Christ while we are alive. If you can reach the Most Holy Place while you are alive, then this spiritual path is worth it.

This is a path of complete dedication. The earliest dedication is the dedication of things. When you reach the Most Holy Place, that is the dedication of yourself, completely offering yourself up as a burnt offering. This is what is pleasing to God, and our such dedication is also our reasonable service, because the path that Jesus has opened up for us is the path to the Most Holy Place.

Therefore, I say be careful, this is God's standard. When you reach the Most Holy Place, you become a son of God, possessing the likeness of Jesus Christ. Now look in the mirror, see what we look like. If we look like Black and White Impermanence, then don't talk about being like Jesus, we haven't even entered the door yet. So I long for everyone to immediately understand that the path we Christians walk is not to live a slightly better life, not to have a little less debt, a little less sickness, and then live a better life, and live a more prosperous life. It is none of these things.

Through receiving God's word and God's Spirit in the sanctuary, and then entering the Most Holy Place, walking the path of victory – this is God's standard. So Jesus said that disciples must forsake this, forsake that, forsake everything, even forsake themselves. That is merely a disciple. It turns out that our path to victory is still very far. So I long for brothers and sisters to begin to know God's heart.

So there is still a long way to go on the path of dedication. Is it easy? It is not easy, because you have to abandon your fleshly evil deeds, but it is worth it, it is incomparably good. When we enter the Most Holy Place, and come before the Mercy Seat, and are able to meet with God, God will give us many revelations.

It turns out that reaching the Most Holy Place is the best. Begin to thirst for it now. You say, Teacher, have you reached it? I have not. I really hope to be able to speak with God face to face. Let us hold hands together and run this path, building God's glorious church, so that God may be glorified in our midst.

May God bless everyone.
