“The Lord GOD’s Spirit is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to preach good news to the humble.” - Isaiah 61:1 (WEB, British Edition, 2016 update) The clock is ticking again. I am J.Z., and I am here to tell you how The Book of the Lord came into being. God is doing a new thing in America in the year 2018. What is this new thing? Why now? Why here? First, what is God doing now with his new message? God is fulfilling his promise to mankind. The Lord said in his new book: “It is already two thousand years since Jesus Christ sacrificed himself on the cross to bring the salvation of God to mankind. Now it is time to finish what he started. My Gospel of salvation should reach every human being on Earth so all souls can have the chance to know about their purpose on Earth and to make free decisions to accept the covenant of life or not.” God wants to reveal the mysteries of his Kingdom in plain words to today’s generation. All fundamental questions of humanity are answered directly and clearly for the first time in history. This revelation must come before the salvation, as Scripture said: “This good news of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world for a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.” (Matthew 24:14) People on Earth deserve to know the truth before they make their final decisions to accept the covenant. The Lord said: “My truth is here, complete, naked, and straightforward for the first time in history. … It is time for you to become children again and learn to look at the world as I the Lord am showing it in a whole new way. I am sure you will find many wonders and will be amazed by the true beauty of the creation.” The two-edged sword from the mouth of Jesus Christ is here. The truth is the sword of the Lord. The truth alone will slay falsehood, conquer spiritual chaos, awaken the children of God, and bring about the salvation and the sanctification of civilization on Earth. Our planet is the cradle of the highly advanced universal civilization to come—the Kingdom of God. We are getting our destination. This is the final invitation from the Lord to mankind to make the covenant of life with him before the harvest. Why now? Every journey has an end. Every play has a finale. Today the grand finale of the Lord’s great play is ushered in: Exodus of all mankind. Every day existed for this day; thousands of years of history have prepared us for this very moment; every tear and every effort on this tough journey will be proved worthwhile. The development of human society has been greatly accelerated in the past two hundred years for this day. People could read this article from anywhere in the world because of the internet technology. We are ready. Just like Moses led the people of Israel out of Egypt, the Lord God will lead his children on Earth out of the final seventy-year spiritual Babylonian Prison that has held them captive in spiritual hibernation and chaos. God is bringing a revival of belief in higher meaning and holy purpose in our hearts to wake us up to his truth. The Lord said in the book: “In 1948, the modern state of Israel was established, which was the beginning of the end of my Earth experiment. Today, seventy years later, my final Gospel has arrived on this spiritually silent world to wake you up and prepare you for the grand finale that you have been waiting for. It is time now, it is, my beloved children.” Why here? “One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.” The Lord God has chosen the United States of America as his launching platform for this new gospel. It was decided from the moment the Earth was created. If you take “Jerusalem” apart, you will find USA inside it. This great nation on Earth is the spiritual mirror image of the city of David, it was built for this day, and it will carry the eternal torch of the Lord forward to lead the children of God to their destination. Why me? I am an impossible candidate for this impossible mission. Yet God can make anything possible. Throughout history, whether mentioned in Scripture or not, numerous people have been called by the Lord to accomplish their pre-assigned missions. I am just another person following in their footsteps. The method of the Lord does not leave much room for elaboration: The Lord called us, and we answered. It is simply the way. What I would like to share here is how I came to know the Lord and understand his deepest love toward his children on Earth. Now it is impossible for me to imagine a life without this knowledge, but a few years ago I neither knew nor understood him. To me, God was a myth, a poetic existence. That was when I was living my ordinary and happy life as an accountant in sunny Southern California, a dry and cozy spot at the corner of the map of the United States. The dreams of youth faded quickly when I grew into my thirties, busy surviving a typical middle-age life where the main pressures are from family, mainstream media, and the square footage of my neighbor’s house. I didn’t have time for religion. I knew about religions, but I never knew any of them very well. I love visiting temples and churches and staring at their statues and altars, but I seldom questioned what they could offer me other than their magnificence. I had many questions about the world, but I never found anyone or anything that could provide me with satisfactory answers. I stopped asking them a long time ago. In such a busy world, who has the patience for more confusion and frustration? When the Lord called me, I didn’t know who it was. I knew nothing at all. Heaven and hell, to me, existed only in the daydreams of poets like Dante and Milton. It was hard for me to believe in their existence in reality. It was even harder to believe that they would intersect with my life. I have visited a church a dozen times, and that’s all there is to say about Christianity and me. Spiritually, I had always stood alone in the middle of my turmoil of memories and emotions. I was doing fine there and didn’t need a way out until the Lord God called me. The Lord has been patient with me. It took me almost five years to know who it really was and it took me even longer to understand his love, even though he has been protecting me and providing for me my entire life. In the early spring of 2011 I was suffering from a minor illness. It was misdiagnosed, and a minor problem became serious. I was very ill, and my very last life energy was fleeing from me. In my weakest moments, I could hear my screams for help resounding in my chest, my mind, and my spirit. Nobody would ever hear me. But help came. I felt a great energy answering my call, a mighty energy radiating with golden healing power. It protected me; it strengthened me; it comforted me. And it has never left me ever since. It was an invisible force, but it was physical and real. It strengthened me day by day, month by month, year by year. By the year 2013, I was almost fully recovered with a much stronger mind and body. One night in the fall, I was half-dreaming in my bed when I saw him for the first time in a vision. I must have seen him many times before without knowing, but he never appeared to me like that, right in front of my eyes. My eyes were shut, but I could see him with the eye of my heart: an old man with hair white as snow in an amazingly elegant long robe, smiling. He was majestic and gracious beyond anything our world has seen. He was standing by my bed, but I know he was also not there. He was from another world, another space, another realm. There are layers of space and time between us. He smiled and didn’t say anything. I didn’t know who he was. I could only speculate that he had something to do with the mighty energy with healing rays. The energy remained closely connected to my consciousness. I could sense its movement through everything near and far, through the sea, the sky, the mountains, and fields. Nothing could block it. It went through them all as if everything were made of the same basic elements and it could manipulate them into any shape it wanted. I enjoyed its warm, soothing, and powerful companionship. It felt to me like an eternal flame with unlimited warmth and light. Everything was quiet for a while. One day our car passed a church. I glanced at its spires and commented: “If there is a God, how could he be three persons?” That very moment, I suddenly realized that there was indeed someone like this in the world, someone I knew very well. Could he be the one worshipped in the church? It sounded rather absurd. Why did the Creator want to keep such an intimate relationship with me? Why did the Father of all pay so much attention to one individual? I knew nothing about love. I knew nothing about him. After my startling speculation, I thought a lot about him, the mighty energy wave through everything, and the relationship between them. Apparently, the energy wave did his will faithfully like it was part of him—a representative, an extension, and an embodiment. They are separated from each other, but they are connected through an unknown, wondrous mechanism beyond our understanding of the physical world, like magic yet much more powerful than any magic. They are exactly like God the Father and the Holy Spirit. Yet I was uncertain. He didn’t seem like a ruler in a worldly sense. He was kind, patient, and approachable. Sometimes I had some success in understanding him when I tried harder. But the very next second, I could become clueless: His way is not our way. My wisdom was too finite to understand such a high being, whether he was God or not. He had a way to convince me, just like he had convinced billions of believers through the history of mankind. We had many conversations since I came to the knowledge of his existence as the Trinity. Even though he rarely spoke, our communication was effortless. Sometimes he used dreams and visions; other times he simply put ideas into my brain. I learned things. A lot of things. The things I would never figure out with my physical brain even if I were given ten thousand years. I learned about the world. I learned about where it came from, how it became what we see today, and about his vision for its future. I learned that there are indeed light and darkness, right and wrong, and there is a tomorrow for people who are kind and righteous. I learned about dreams and hope, salvation and enlightenment, and that he shoulders our burdens with us, despite all the pain and emptiness in our life. I learned about who I am. I always wondered about it, and the question had scared me. I never dared to ask myself: “Who am I?” But now I can answer it without fear and pain: “I am who I am.” This is the final answer to this question for everybody. You are who you are. You don’t need to live to the standards of this world. You are fine as you are, but only if you know what love is. I was always afraid before I knew him. I thought I was afraid of the world, the crowd, or simply any uncertainties. Now I see that I was afraid of none of these. I was afraid of myself. I didn’t know who I was, and I was too scared to find the answer. I was alive, but I was not living; I was just surviving causes and consequences. I was torn apart by the world’s judgments and standards and got lost in the maze leading to my true heart. Human society, with its tens of thousands of contradictory ideas and its gilt vanity, caused me to lose my direction. I was trapped in spiritual dreams woven of incomplete memories, bitter or sweet lost reveries, exhausting relationships, and my own false pride. But he woke me up. There is only one truth about our world. The truth is love. I saw the love in him. He has shown me. I saw his genuine affection for his children, his creation, his world. Love knows no fear. True love is not afraid of anything. He is not afraid—not because of his great power, but because of his love. In this fearless love the whole world is held together. He was not afraid to create although he knew there would be imperfection. He was not afraid to love all his children without reservation although he knew some of us repay him only with treacherous betrayal. He was not afraid to allow sin to manifest under the sun so all of us could learn to tell right from wrong. He was not afraid to be nailed to the cross as a mere human to awaken us with his message of truth and love. He designed, launched, and nurtured the mankind civilization on Earth. One day he will make our planet a new Eden, and there will be no more sin and suffering. He is our fearless Father. He does everything for us, yet many of us know so little of his efforts and sacrifice. He has been bearing with all our misunderstandings and judgments with his love and patience. He has been waiting for the day that everyone sees the naked truth. And, everyone on Earth deserves to know the truth. In a dream in summer 2015, he showed me a golden scroll he held in his hand and told me to write a new Scripture for today’s people. He wished to reveal himself for the first time in plain words. Thus, my work began. It was not smooth at all. I thought I should familiarize myself with Bible first, which was the right direction. Yet I was slow and became stuck on the confusing interpretations from earlier generations. Half a year later, I had to stop reading anything else and focus on Scripture alone. The greatest challenge was the actual writing of the book: My mind was blank, and I had no idea what to write or where to begin. Months passed but I wrote just a few scribbled pages scattered over various topics. I didn’t know how long the book would be or what it would look like. For a while, I doubted that I could offer anything more than a little flier with several sentences to announce the approaching of the Kingdom. He has more than that to say. In early summer of 2017, I found the way to deliver his message: All I had to do was to allow his words to appear in my mind and write them down as quickly as I could. It was still not easy because I often got distracted and lost the signal. Whenever that happened, it would require several days and great effort to resume the connection. The hardest thing I have ever done. But it is worthwhile. A book in his words. The final gift to mankind before the salvation is accomplished. It is here so everyone can see the truth. I am glad that I have done this, but I know it is only the first step of a million-mile journey. I am not afraid. In the end, life is all about courage. He has led me to find my courage. I finally see who I am, and I can live with the truth. I found the love I was searching for, and I will never lose it. He can give you the courage to truly live, too. He can show you what love is. All you need is to ask. One day our world will become perfect. One day everyone will see that you don’t have to make yourself the same as the Most High to be worthy. You are perfect as you are, as long as you find the love of life itself in your soul. My fellow souls on Earth, please read The Book of the Lord.
