What is the difference between an honest person and a deceitful person?

What is the difference between an honest person and a deceitful person?Relevant Words of God:

Honesty means to give your heart to God; to never play Him false in anything; to be open with Him in all things, never cover the truth; to never do that which deceives those above and deludes those below; and to never do that which is done merely to ingratiate yourself with God. In short, to be honest is to refrain from impurity in your actions and words, and to deceive neither God nor man. What I speak is very simple but is doubly arduous to you. Many would rather be condemned to hell than to speak and act honestly. Little wonder that I have other treatment in place for those who are dishonest. Of course, I understand the great difficulty you face in being an honest man. You are all very clever and adept at judging others from your own perspective, so this renders My work much simpler. And since you each harbor secrets in your heart, well then, I shall send each of you into disaster to undergo a “trial” by fire, so that thereafter you shall be utterly committed to belief in My words. Finally, I shall wrest from your mouth the words “God is a God of faithfulness,” then shall you beat upon your breast and lament that “devious is the heart of man.”

What is the difference between wheat and tares?

Relevant Words of God:

As I have said, Satan has sent those who do service for Me to interrupt My management; these service-doers are tares, yet wheat does not refer to the firstborn sons, but rather to all the sons and the people who are not the firstborn sons. Wheat will always be wheat, tares will always be tares; this means that those of Satan’s nature can never change. So, in short, they remain as Satan. Wheat means the sons and the people, because before the creation of the world I added to these people My quality. Because I have said before man’s nature does not change, wheat will always be wheat.

In What Way Will the Lord Jesus Make His Return?

Question:

     Many Christians are hoping for the Lord Jesus to descend on a cloud and take them up into the kingdom of heaven. When studying the Bible carefully, we can find there are many prophecies about the Lord’s descent. For example, “Be you therefore ready also: for the Son of man comes at an hour when you think not” (Luke 12:40). “For as the lightning, that lightens out of the one part under heaven, shines to the other part under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day. But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation” (Luke 17:24-25). These prophecies mention “the Son of man comes” or “the coming of the Son of man”, so what exactly is meant by “the coming of the Son of man”? In what way will the Lord Jesus make His return?

 Life Is Short, How to Stop Living in Vain? – Spiritual Awakening

By Feifei, China

    One day, a friend of mine told me a joke: A white cookie asked a black cookie why he was so black. The black cookie replied, “Because I don’t want to live in vain.” (In Chinese, “in vain” and “white” have the same pronunciation but different meanings.) After hearing this bad joke, in addition to feeling ridiculous, I couldn’t help but think: It is true that we are all unwilling to spend our lives in vain and we all want to live a life of value. Some choose to earn a great deal of money; some choose to make a go of a career; others choose to pursue prominent status…. However, will such pursuits bring us a meaningful life? In the past I would say “Yes” without hesitation; but having experienced and seen much, I had a question mark about it.

Walking the Bright Path of Human Life

Xieli United States

      I was once a man who pursued worldly trends, liked eating, drinking, making merry, and cared about fleshly enjoyments. I often sang with friends in a KTV room all night, had a whirlwind driving at midnight, went fishing on the sea, and traveled far and wide to look for delicacies. When I saw everyone around me also pursuing to eat well, dress well, and enjoy well, I thought that man spent all his life struggling desperately and working hard to earn money just to pursue those things, which was his goal in life; only if man lived like that would he not live in vain. In order to achieve those things, I made light of going over the water and traveling thousands of miles to US. After several years of struggling, I set up a business of my own, had my own car and house, and lived a kind of life that I wanted. I spent every day in eating, drinking, and making merry, thinking that only living like this was meaningful.

Why Do We Live? And Why Do We Have to Die?

    God says: “Those who die take with them the stories of the living, and those who are living repeat the same tragic history of those who have died. And so mankind can’t help but ask itself: Why do we live? And why do we have to die? Who is in command of this world? And who created this mankind? Was mankind really created by Mother Nature? Is mankind really in control of its own fate?”
