Some religious people believe that all of God's words and work are in the Bible, and that there are no words and work of God besides those in the Bible. Does this kind of view accord with the truth? The Bible says, "And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written" (John 21: 25). Almighty God says, "What God is and has is forever inexhaustible and limitless. ... Do not delimit God in books, words, or His past utterances again. There is only one word for the characteristic of God's work—new. He does not like to take old paths or repeat His work, and moreover He does not want people to worship Him by delimiting Him within a certain scope. This is God's disposition" (The Word Appears in the Flesh).
Ang Kidlat ng Silanganan, nilikha ang Iglesia ng Makapangyarihang Diyos dahil sa pagpapakita at gawain ng Makapangyarihang Diyos, ang ikalawang pagdating ng Panginoong Jesus, ang Cristo ng mga huling araw. Binubuo ito ng lahat ng mga taong tumatanggap sa gawain ng Makapangyarihang Diyos sa mga huling araw at nilupig at niligtas ng Kanyang mga salita. Lubos itong itinatag nang personal ng Makapangyarihang Diyos at pinamumunuan Niya bilang Pastol. Talagang hindi ito nilikha ng tao. Si Kristo ay ang katotohanan, daan, at buhay. Kordero ng Diyos pakinggan ang tinig ng Diyos. Hangga't nababasa ninyo ang mga salita ng Makapangyarihang Diyos, makikita ninyo na nagpakita ang Diyos.
