I

Man will be fully made complete in the Age of Kingdom. After the work of conquest, man will be subjected to refinement and tribulation. Those who can overcome and stand firm in their testimony during this tribulation are the ones who will ultimately be made complete; they are the overcomers. During this tribulation, man is required to accept this refinement, and this refinement is the last instance of God's work. It is the last time that man will be refined prior to the conclusion of all the work of God's management, and all those who follow God must accept this final test, and they must accept this last refinement.

II

Those who are beset by tribulation are without the Holy Spirit's work and God's guidance, but those who have been truly conquered and who truly seek after God will ultimately stand fast; they are the ones who are possessed of humanity, and who truly love God. No matter what God does, these victorious ones will not be bereft of the visions and will still put the truth into practice without failing in their testimony. They are the ones who will finally emerge from the great tribulation. Those who truly follow God are able to withstand the test of their work, whereas those who don't truly follow God are incapable of withstanding any of God's trials. Sooner or later they will be expelled, while the overcomers will remain in the kingdom.

III

Whether or not man truly seeks God is determined by the test of his work, that is, by God's trials, and it has nothing to do with the decision by man himself. God does not reject any person lightly; all that He does can utterly convince man. He doesn't do anything that is invisible to man, or any work that cannot convince man. Whether man's belief is true or not is proved by the facts and cannot be decided by man. That "wheat cannot be made into tares, and tares cannot be made into wheat" is without doubt. All those who truly love God will ultimately remain in the kingdom, and God will not treat anyone who truly loves Him poorly.
