Her name is Zheng Lu, and since childhood, she has been especially proud. Because of her social environment and traditional educational culture, she studied tirelessly, hoping to get into university and realize her dream of outperforming her peers and becoming successful, but an unexpected accident shattered her dream. Just when she felt negative, weak, and unable to find direction in life, Almighty God's work of salvation in the last days found her. After starting to believe in God, she pursued passionately, enthusiastically performed her duties, won the approval of her brothers and sisters, and two years later was selected as a church leader. But unconsciously, her desire for prominence again began to grow in her, and the reckless conceit and desire for fame and prestige of her satanic nature exposed themselves constantly in her duties, greatly disrupting church work. Through repeatedly experiencing the judgment, chastisement, pruning, and dealing in God's word, she reflects deeply, and finally sees clearly that she has been deeply corrupted and poisoned by satanic toxins such as "To be a man is to get ahead," "As a tree lives for its bark, a man lives for his face," and "A man leaves his name behind wherever he stays, just as a goose utters its cry wherever it flies," which led her to become conceited and to worship status and power, and caused her to focus exclusively on pursuing fame and prestige over her years of belief in God instead of pursuing the truth. Unbeknownst to herself, she walked the path of the antichrist. At the same time, as she gains deep penetration into the essence and dangers of pursuing fame and status, she comes to loath fame, status, and her own satanic nature, change her mistaken perspectives and values, and gradually begins to walk the path of light in her life, that of pursuing truth.

Gospel Movie clip "The Mystery of Godliness" (6) - The Necessity for God to Do His Work Through Incarnation
Why is it said that it is more beneficial to saving corrupt mankind for God to incarnate? In what can the necessity and major significance of God incarnating be seen? Almighty God says, "The flesh of man has been corrupted by Satan, and most deeply blinded, and profoundly harmed. The most fundamental reason why God works personally in the flesh is because the object of His salvation is man, who is of the flesh, and because Satan also uses the flesh of man to disturb the work of God. The battle with Satan is actually the work of conquering man, and at the same time, man is also the object of God's salvation. In this way, the work of God incarnate is essential. Satan corrupted the flesh of man, and man became the embodiment of Satan, and became the object to be defeated by God. In this way, the work of doing battle with Satan and saving mankind occurs on earth, and God must become human in order to do battle with Satan. This is work of the utmost practicality" (The Word Appears in the Flesh).
The Church of Almighty God- "The Mystery of Godliness: The Sequel" (4) - Why Does God Twice Become Flesh in Order to Save Mankind?
In the Age of Grace, God incarnate was nailed to the cross, taking upon Himself the sins of man and completing the work of redeeming mankind. In the last days, God has once again incarnated to express the truth and to thoroughly purify and save man. So why does God need to incarnate twice to do the work of the salvation of man? Almighty God says, "The first incarnation was to redeem man from sin through the flesh of Jesus, that is, He saved man from the cross, but the corrupt satanic disposition still remained within man. The second incarnation is no longer to serve as a sin offering but to fully save those who were redeemed from sin. This is done so that those forgiven can be delivered from their sins and be fully made clean, and attain a change in disposition, thereby breaking free of Satan's influence of darkness and returning before the throne of God. Only in this way can man be fully sanctified. ... The second incarnation is sufficient to get rid of the sins of man and fully purify man. Hence, the second incarnation will bring to a close all the work of God in the flesh and complete the significance of God's incarnation" (The Word Appears in the Flesh).
