Jesus said, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon me and learn me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, my burden is light.” The Holy Injil, Matt. 11: 28-30
Preface
This book is dedicated to future love, understanding, and hope between the Christians and Muslims of the world.
Once a foolish man stood in front of a fast train and said, “If you believe, it exists. If you don’t believe, it doesn’t.”
The True God exists! And He wants to rescue you!

“True gold does not fear fire” by Ma Rong Guang
Introduction
God, the One and only True God, loves the people of China. He is not an unknowable, mysterious Force hidden from His creation. He is not an evil demon-like being like the gods of ancient Chinese folklore. He is not a ideology or philosophical idea or principle of nature. He is not a superstitious figment of peoples imaginations or fears. He is not a foreign religious belief or a foreign idea of men. He is none of these.
God is the One Supreme, Eternal, and Heavenly Ruler of China and of all the Earth. He is the most ancient Ruler of China. Before Buddhism, before Taoism, before Confucius was born, before Muhammad, before dynasties, before all things, “Shang Ti” was worshipped as the One and only True God. He is “above” the Emperor, the Heavenly Ruler and “He is the Living God, and He endures forever;
His Kingdom will not be destroyed, His dominion will never end. He rescues and He saves; He performs signs and wonders in the heavens and on the earth.”
God is a Spirit who used His eternal Intelligence to create and design all things and how they function and balance together. He is the Great Designer and looks with care over all the works of His hands, if we may say He has hands. All the peoples of the earth were created in His image; not so much any physical image but rather in His spiritual image.
We are not an object of random Chance or blind Fate. We are more than blobs with no meaning or purpose; existing only to reproduce, consume and die like any other animal. We are more than the dirt that we were originally created from, as seen by the ancient word, Zao: “to create.” In the word “Zao,” we see the following meanings: “dust + mouth breath =alive = to talk= walking!” The meaning of this ancient Chinese word can trace its reference back to Genesis 2:7 in the Bible:
“The Lord God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living being.”
An apple tree didn’t come from a rock; it is a living thing. Non-living doesn’t and has never created any thing living. Living creates living. A Living God created a living world and living intelligent people. An intelligent God created intelligent people.
Though lacking the history to develop today’s technology of trial and error efforts, earliest man was very intelligent. Early pyramid ruins and early inventive ideas of all cultures attest to great intelligence far surpassing any evolutionary explanations. They do attest to an Intelligent Source- -God. And He wants to communicate with you!
The Mystery of God Revealed
God is a loving, respectful, Father of all peoples of the earth. He is like the ideal loving, wise great grandfather, and will not force Himself on His people. He is moved deeply in His heart when one of His creation desires to know Him and spend time with Him. He will come to that person and reveal Himself more fully to them!
You, His creation, will know when He becomes manifest to you, because your heart, soul and mind will be aware just as a young child will be aware of a loving parent’s presence. God brings a deep peace and happiness to your soul. In fact, the ancient word for “blessing” or happiness came from “Fu,” which means:
“God, who is ‘one’ or first, mouth, over the garden.” The meaning of this ancient Chinese word can trace its reference back to Genesis 2:8 in the Bible.
