Only when God passes into the new heaven and earth

does He take the other part of His glory

and reveal it first in the land of Canaan,

causing a glimmer of light to shine forth in the whole earth,

sunk in the pitchy darkness of night,

to allow the whole earth to come to the light.

Let men all over the earth come to

draw strength from the power of the light,

allowing God's glory to increase

and appear anew to every nation.

Let all humanity realize that

God has long ago come to the human world

and long ago brought His glory from Israel to the East;

for His glory shines from the East,

where it was brought over from the Age of Grace to this day.

But it was from Israel that God departed

and from there that He arrived in the East.

Only when the light of the East gradually turns white

will the darkness across the earth begin to turn to light,

and only then will man discover that

God has long ago gone from Israel and is rising anew in the East.

Having once descended into Israel and later departed from it,

God cannot again be born into Israel,

because His work leads all of the universe

and, what is more, the lightning flashes straight from East to West.

For this reason God has descended in the East

and brought Canaan to the people of the East.

He wishes to bring people from all over the earth

to the land of Canaan,

and so He continues to issue forth utterances in the land of Canaan

to control the entire universe.

At this time, there is no light in all the earth apart from Canaan,

and all men are imperiled by hunger and cold.

He wishes to bring people from all over the earth

to the land of Canaan,

and so He continues to issue forth utterances in the land of Canaan

to control the entire universe.

At this time, there is no light in all the earth apart from Canaan

and all men are imperiled by hunger and cold,

all men are imperiled by hunger and cold.
