Update on French Translation

Dear saints,

I have finished translating into French the Thanksgiving conference held in Dallas, Texas, on November 23-26, 2023, and also the semiannual training held on December 25-30, 2023, in Anaheim, California.

I am currently translating into French the international Chinese-speaking blending conference held in Taipei, Taiwan, on February 10-11, 2024. The general subject of the conference was “Fighting the good fight, finishing the course, keeping the faith, and loving the Lord’s appearing in order to receive the reward of Christ as the crown of righteousness”

The apostle Paul said in 2 Timothy 4:7,8 “I have fought the good fight; l have finished the course; I have kept the faith. Henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, with which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will recompense me in that day, and not only me but also all those who have loved His appearing.”

The prize that the believers win for running the race is an incorruptible crown (1 Cor. 9.25), which is a reward as an incentive. This reward will be given to us according to our works at the Lord’s coming back (Matt. 16.27 ; Rev. 22.12 ; 1 Cor. 4.5). It will be decided at the judgment seat of Christ (2 Cor. 5.10) and enjoyed in the coming Kingdom (Matt. 25.21, 23). (International Chinese-speaking blending conference, 2024, week 2, day 1)

When the Lord comes again, faith will be turned to facts, and praise will replace prayer. Love will consummate in a shadowless perfection, and we will serve Him in the sinless domain. What a day that will be! Lord Jesus, come quickly! (4th key statement of the International Chinese-speaking conference)

Saints, let’s finish our course, receive our prize and enter into the joy of our dear Lord Jesus!!!

Your sister,
