English Christian Song | "Submission to God Is the Reason a Created Being Should Possess"

I
Whether a person receives blessings or suffers catastrophe is in God's hands, God is sovereign over this and arranges this. It depends on whether that person can obey God's words, accept the truth, and do their duty well according to God's requirements—God will repay each person according to their deeds. If someone has this bit of sincerity, and they devote all the strength that they can muster to the duty they should do, then that is enough, and they will earn God's approval and blessing. If you feel that you haven't done well enough, but in God's evaluation, you're sincere and have given it your all, He wishes to show you grace and bless you.

II
Nothing God does is wrong, and you must praise His righteousness. No matter what God does, it's always right, and even if you harbor notions about what God does, believing that what He does isn't considerate of human feelings, that it's not to your liking, you should still praise God. It's because God is God and you are human; He is the Creator, you are a created being. You are not qualified to demand that God act in a certain way or that He treat you a certain way, whereas God is qualified to make demands of you. Blessings, grace, rewards, crowns—how all these things are given and to whom is up to God. These things belong to God, and God bestows them upon those whom He promises to bestow them upon. If God doesn't promise to bestow them upon you, you should still submit to Him.

III
The identity, status, and essence of God can never be equated with the identity, status, and essence of man, nor will these things ever undergo any change—God will forever be God, and man will forever be man. If a person is able to understand this, they should submit to God's sovereignty and arrangements—this is the most rational way to go about things, and besides this, there is no other path that can be chosen. If you don't submit then you are rebellious, and if you are defiant and argue, then you are being outrageously rebellious, and you should be destroyed. Being able to submit to God's sovereignty and arrangements shows that you have reason; this is the attitude people must have, and only this is the attitude created beings should have.

from The Word, Vol. 4. Exposing Antichrists. Item Twelve: They Want to Withdraw When They Have No Status or No Hope of Gaining Blessings
