I
God has made a new beginning on Earth, so on Earth He has found His glory. The final prospect is so beauteous God cannot keep the pride in His breast from swelling. God's heart is beating, and the hills leap for joy in time. The waters dance merrily, and the waves keep time, slapping against the rocks. God's heart is ineffable. From this we see, what God plans is just what He has made, is what He's foreordained, and asks that man should experience, that man should see.
II
The kingdom's prospect is great, it's King victorious. From head to foot He has no flesh or blood. Holiness makes up His whole part. From Him radiates a holy luster, mixed with no jot of human will. He is filled with righteousness, with the breath of heaven, gives off a bewitching scent, like the beloved in the "Song of Songs." Lovelier than the assembled saints, loftier than the saints of old, an exemplar for all mankind. Man is unfit to compare with Him, unworthy to look Him in the face. God's glorious countenance, God's face, and God's image, are ever unattainable to man. None may compare with God, none can lightly praise God, praise God with his mouth.
from “The Interpretation of the Twelfth Utterance” in The Word Appears in the Flesh
話在肉身顯現
這是創世以來神第一次面向全人類說話,是神在人類中間發表的第一部揭示人、引導人、審判人、與人談心的著作,也是第一部讓人知曉神的腳蹤、神的躺臥之處、神的性情、神的所有所是、神的意念與神對人類的眷顧的說話。可以說,這是創世以來第一部神站在三層天向人類的說話、發聲,也是神第一次以他原有的身分在話語中向人類顯現,發表心聲。
