Vision of Door of Light

By Sis. Liliana Chan
In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I testify.
Background
First, I’d like to share a very brief background. I was not born into church. My siblings and I were born and raised in Central and South America, in countries where the True Jesus Church did not have members or a prayer house. At age 12, by the great and inexplicable mercy of God, I received water baptism and the precious Holy Spirit at a Student Spiritual Convocation in El Monte Church. Soon after, my family returned to Latin America, where we remained for six years. During those six years, God Himself carried us through a great numbers of trials and tribulations, including civil wars, natural disasters, and other tragedies of life (but those are testimonies for another time). It is because of God’s immeasurable compassion that I can testify before you today.

Ministry Volunteer Program at San Jose
I was given the opportunity to participate at the Ministry Volunteer Program as a member of the Spanish Ministry project. I really thank and praise God for the many living testimonies I found among the youth there. I was extremely touched by the faithfulness and diligence of several participants, who by their loving heart and righteous conduct did not allow others to despise them because of their youth (1 Tim 4:12).

Vision
During one of the group prayers, I received a vision. First, there was complete and utter darkness. It was darkness so deep and desolate that it felt physically painful. It was the darkness that lives in those who are separated from the love of God.
Suddenly, a door of light opened into the darkness. It was a light full of comfort and love. When the door first opened wide, many departed from the darkness and stepped into the light. This reminded me of verses in 2 Corinthians 4:6 and Luke 1:76-79 (2 Co 4:6 For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. Luk 1:76 "And you, child, will be called the prophet of the Highest; For you will go before the face of the Lord to prepare His ways, 77 To give knowledge of salvation to His people By the remission of their sins, 78 Through the tender mercy of our God, With which the Dayspring from on high has visited us; 79 To give light to those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death, To guide our feet into the way of peace.")

However, as soon as many abandoned the shifting shadows to enter the heavenly light, the darkness furiously pressed against the door. The door closed until it was a narrow opening. It remained open because the Light would not allow it to be shut (Isa 22:22), and because the servants of the Lord had rushed to the door and stood there to hold back the pressing darkness.

The servants of God were few, but they stood together as one. The more they were pressed and pierced with suffering, the stronger they became. At first, I could not fully understand why the Light allowed them to undergo such terrible pain, which was provoked by the darkness. Then I looked closer, and saw that some of those dwelling in the darkness were able to break free from their chains and slip through the narrow opening into the light. It was through the suffering of the servants of God, along with the abidance of the Light, that many more were released from their imprisonment.

Then I looked around, and there was a great crowd of witnesses and angels observing this spectacle. This brought to mind verses found in Hebrews 12:1 and 1 Corinthians 4:9 (Heb 12:1 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. 1 Co 4:9 For I think that God has displayed us, the apostles, last, as men condemned to death; for we have been made a spectacle to the world, both to angels and to men.) The spectacle was meant for the glory of God.

This vision brought me to a few realizations, lessons which may be edifying to all of us. First, many of us who are here today may be enjoying a peaceful and comfortable phase of life because God has blessed us by keeping the enemy at bay. We have enjoyed and are enjoying the benefits of being in the light, and we thank God for this. However, we should be careful to be too complacent in our prosperity. There are countless souls on the other side of the door, longing for an opportunity to share in our blessings.

We can no longer sit at the sidelines. The end is near. Now, it is our turn to enter the battlefield, join the servants of God at the door, and push back against the powers of darkness. We need not be afraid of suffering or difficulty. Actually, we should welcome them willingly and endure patiently, because we are not only saving up treasure in heaven, but it may be that we are also saving a soul or two.

Let our goal be to work together to become a spectacle that brings glory to God. If we have a testimony, let’s share it. If we can’t think of our own testimony, surely we’ve heard of someone else’s testimony. Share that. If we know the Bible, let’s share it. If we haven’t read the Bible through, surely we’ve read one verse that we can still remember. Share that. If we have an hour to offer a prayer of intercession, share it. If we only have ten minutes to pray for someone else, let us share that. I’m sure there are too many things that we lack, but all we need to do is share what we do have, simply share what we have seen and heard (John 8:38a "I speak what I have seen with My Father." Act 22:15 'For you will be His witness to all men of what you have seen and heard.)
If we can make a determination to do these things when we return home, we will have joined the workers at the door of salvation and will share in their rewards in heaven.
May all glory, honor, and praise be unto God.

到第三天、第四天，我真的很餓，我那時候瘦到不及35公斤……第四天、第五天，我已經不覺得餓，麻麻的，麻木了，只覺得頭暈。我聽到廚房旁的柴房有母雞生蛋，我就想去拿蛋來煮。我去看，有六個蛋，我就拿兩三個，本來要煮；我煮了，我就會飽。可是想，可能我婆婆有算，她會罵我；不行！我再痛苦，也不能得罪神。果然真的，我婆婆有去算……我那時候有一點想，先聽他們的，遷就於他們，然後將來我好過一點，再回到我的教會。我真的受不了！當晚我做了一個夢，夢見一個非常⋯⋯帥的男青年追求我，我說：「你條件這麼好，為什麼要喜歡我這麼醜的人？」他說：「我看妳最漂亮啊！」他有手下跟著他，那手下一直幫助他說：「嫁給他嘛！嫁給他嘛！他是我們世界王的兒子。」我說我沒有資格嫁給他。他們一直強迫要我嫁給他；他們硬要我穿新娘禮服，就帶我去結婚。進去禮堂時，原來是戲院，就是電影院，哇！裡面坐了滿滿的有頭有臉的人，他們的穿著都是西裝筆挺的，哇！人長得壯壯的，好像在社會上是很有地位的人。新郎站在門口，就牽著我的手要進去、在台階上結婚；我跟新郎說：「我是基督徒，我要在教會結婚，我不要在這個戲院結婚！」他說：「這個是我的教會」(原來電影院是魔鬼的教會)。我一直掙扎說我不要在這裏，我要在教會。他就看我不安靜，即不悅。可是我不能從這裏往大門跑，因為有很多人會抓我。我就看到後門，有一個人進來，我就想我從這裏馬上跑出去！新郎很不高興說現在要證婚啦！他的爸爸，就是國王，要給我們證婚。他說：「妳為什麼東看西看！妳看什麼？！」其實我在找逃走的路。剛好後門打開、有一個人進來，我就朝著那個方向衝出去！牠們追我！禮服一一被牠們拉破、頭巾也拉走，只剩下內衣。我跑來跑去，牠們一直追！我一直大聲說：「救命哪！救命哪！我被牠們追啦！」我在禮堂時即看到那新郎原來長牙、尖銳的牙齒！他罵我為什麼不安靜時，那牙齒長出來！我認定這不是人、是鬼！後來牠也衝出去追我的時候，還好！有一個穿白衣的、高高的人，祂站在那邊，我從裡面進去，就一直抓住祂的腿！說：「祢要救我！祢要救我！牠們要抓我！要結婚！我不要嫁給牠！我是基督徒，我要在教會結婚！」牠們要靠近的時候，那穿白衣的說：「誰敢進來？！」誰敢接近祂？！牠們看到了，就都跑回去啦！我夢醒的時候，我說：「啊！我信心太軟弱啦！心裡想要妥協一下，才知我如果妥協，就要跟魔鬼結婚。」我就下定決心，好！餓也沒有關係！我要忍！忍！忍！我要到天國！忍！沒有關係！到了第八天，我真的走不起路來，我全身都會抖，他們看到這樣，也不會同情我…後來晚上睡覺，我已經不能坐著禱告，我就躺著禱告神，我說：「主啊！祢愛我的時候，今天晚上接我走；因為我要活、是容易，我要吃飯，但是我不能因為吃飯離開祢……我要走、祢要接我走，連我的孩子也要帶走；我相信祢可以！因為只有帶我走，我的孩子淪落到外邦生活，他的靈魂很可憐！」我就這樣子抱著孩子(那就是田輝煌傳道)，他睡著了，我跟他說：「媽媽對不起你！你不能長大！因為我們明天就到天國啦！」就這樣睡著了。到了早上，為什麼我聽到他們的聲音，怎麼那麼熟悉？欸！我沒有死嘛！我睜開眼睛看，還是那個天花板，我向神說：「祢不愛我！為什麼沒有帶我走！？」我連起來都不能起來；全身一直抖著！一直抖著！我想強忍著、不要讓人家看到！可是沒辦法，一直抖、一直抖；因為缺氧……

我那時候的生活，只有「禱告」是我的快樂；怎麼說，我不能離開神，因為在禱告、或者在睡覺的夢中，神常常給我看異象、看異夢。儘管我先生說要離婚，可是我不答應……
在這當中，我先生一直以離婚的方法要我離開真耶穌教會；他拉我的手說我們到派出所辦離婚，我說不用拉啦！你去辦，我的條件是孩子給我。他說孩子不可以給妳，孩子是我的；我說我怎麼不知道孩子是你的？我告訴他、我有義務負責孩子的信仰，因為孩子還不懂的時候，我給他們受洗，我要負這個責任。他說孩子⋯⋯不給妳；妳不走的話，妳會餓死！我說沒關係餓死，至少，如果我現在就走，你不給我孩子，以後你會騙孩子、說：你們的媽媽信那個教，不要孩子、不要你，就這樣扭曲；我死在這裏，至少給孩子說：「媽媽沒有離開你。」在這個過程中，我做一個異夢，天使跟我說，我要帶妳到天國，也帶妳到地獄看；我說好，就跟祂去。我們先到地獄，就看到一間很大的牢，有鐵欄杆、縫口很小、人不能出來，但是我們看得很清楚。他們的手都伸出來！說：「救我們！救我們！打開門！我們受不了在這裏！擠得這樣！……」看了他們的頭都擠在一起、密密麻麻的頭，那身體都壓得扁扁的，好像我們醃酸菜、用力擠！用力擠！這樣子。我看了，心裡很難過！真想要打開、把他們放出來深呼吸！真的很可憐！每一個瘦巴巴的，哦！真的！衣服又邋遢，真的很可憐！有一個動的時候，大家就說不要動嘛！我受不了！受不了了！就是不能動到，受不了！然後天使說我們到第二間。第二間和第一間一樣，只是多了煙霧，起起伏伏地看到他們的影子；因為有烟，所以他們嗆到！有的咳嗽，有的喘不過氣！一直叫！一直哭！比前面還加一倍的苦！那天使說，我們到第三間。地獄是這樣子斜斜下去；我們要到第三間、還沒到，我就感覺，從下面很濃的煙、升上來，我馬上想到聖經裡面說：有火湖！下面沒有火的話，怎麼會有煙從下面升上來？我就想到第三間更不好看！更可憐！……
