I

Your destination and your fate are very important to you—they're of grave concern. You believe, if you do not do things with great care, it will mean that you cease to have a destination, that you've destroyed your own fate. But has it ever occurred to you that people who expend effort solely for the sake of their destination are laboring in vain? Such efforts are not genuine—they are fakery and deceit. Then those who work only for the sake of their destination are on the threshold of their final defeat, for failure in one's belief in God is caused by deceit. I do not like to be flattered or fawned on, or treated with enthusiasm. I like honest people to face up to My truth and My expectations. Even more, I like it when people can show the utmost care and consideration for My heart, and when they're even capable of giving up everything for My sake. Only in this way can My heart be comforted.

In My heart, I don't wish to be hurtful to any heart that's positive and aspires upward; still less do I wish to dampen the energy of anyone who is faithfully doing his duty. Nonetheless, I must remind each of you of your inadequacies and of the filthy soul that lies in the deepest recesses of your hearts. I do so in the hope that you will be able to offer up your true heart in coming face to face with My words, because what I hate most is people's deceit toward Me. I only hope that, in the last stage of My work, you'll be able to give your most outstanding performance, and that you will devote yourselves wholeheartedly, no longer half-hearted. Of course, I also hope that you can all have a good destination. Nevertheless, I still have My requirement, which is for you to make the best decision in offering up to Me your sole and final loyalty.
