Even though God's word is very clear to understand so we can recognize Heavenly Father and Mother-Christ Ahnsahnghong in Church of God World Mission Society is the savior of this age. People who are arrogant to the Bible maybe not think about the blessing will be theirs.
God chooses the humble
When we think of God's salvation work which has been fulfilled through the ages of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, we can fathom the providence of God who fulfills His great work through the humble. When God chose His prophets in each era, some were chosen from among shepherds, some among fishermen, and others among tax collectors. A shepherd, a fisherman or a tax collector was not a respectable leading position in the eyes of people. All of them were the poorest and the lowly ones in those days.
1 Co 1:20-29
『 … For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe. … For the foolishness of God is wiser than man's wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man's strength. Brothers, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. He chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things―and the things that are not―to nullify the things that are, so that no one may boast before him.』
This is the way God chooses. He has chosen the weak, the foolish and the poor and fulfilled His great work of salvation through them. A shepherd can become a great prophet and a fisherman or a tax collector can be an apostle whose name will shine forever, if God uses them.
