God's words express all aspects of the truth

and provide what is needed by all mankind.

While people are in different times and in different environments,

God takes different standpoints

and uses all kinds of different working methods to guide them

without them being aware of it

and to achieve different results on each person.

No matter how weak you are,

or how far you feel you are from meeting God's requirements,

God's words and work have already taken hold of your heart.

Even if you are not too interested in pursuing the truth,

even if you still don't regard

the significance of attaining salvation as very important,

the truth of God's words and the content of the words God utters

give you hope,

and in your innermost heart you come to have expectations

regarding God's work and the facts God wants to accomplish.

Regardless of how great your faith is now, or how your stature is,

you surely have hope, you surely have hope.

God's words are what mankind needs, they provide what mankind needs,

and you have unknowingly come to have a certain acceptance

of God's words in your innermost heart.

III

From these facts and indications,

we can see that God's utterances and work

are imbued with the power, authority, and wisdom of God.

This also verifies something else: Mankind was created by God,

and although they can do without sunlight, water, and air,

they cannot do without God,

they cannot do without God's words and they cannot do without God's provision.

Only the guidance, provision, and shepherding of God

and all the truths God expresses

can give mankind hope and light,

as well as goals and direction for its survival.
