[Shincheonji God's Word] Today’s faith check-up

Today’s faith check-up


Since the scriptures cannot be broken (Jn 10:35), everyone’s deeds will be judged according to what is written in the book (Rev 20:12).
Catholicism emerged from Judaism, and Protestantism emerged from Catholicism. Now Protestants have splintered into hundreds if not thousands of denominations that each claim to be orthodox and to have received the holy spirit. Can this be true?
Jesus asked whether or not he would find faith on earth when he returns (Lk 18:8). The Bible says that all nations have been deceived and have married the devil (Rev 18:23). It says the sun, moon and stars will darken and fall (Mt 24:29; Rev 6:12-13), Jerusalem will be destroyed (Mt24), and that the second coming will be like the time of Lot and the time of Noah (Mt 24:37-39). Can anyone say that they the only orthodox people who are saved after reading these passages? The prophecies of Revelation say that no one who adds to or subtracts from the Bible’s words of prophecy can enter the kingdom of heaven (Rev 22:18-19). I would like to ask one question to everyone who claims to be saved. Do you truly know and understand Revelation without adding to it or subtracting from it? If you do not, how can you claim to be saved or to be orthodox? Jesus said in Rev 10 and Rev 22:16 that he sends his messenger to testify about these things for the churches. Who else, apart from this messenger of Jesus, can testify about Revelation?
If you met Jesus’ messenger, would you listen to him? Would you persecute him as a heretic? You can hide from men, but you cannot hide from God. Let us become honest believers. Let us repent, understand the truth, believe, and be saved. People who have learned only the teachings of men cannot understand the word of revelation that is taught by the holy spirit. Just as Jesus and his disciples were persecuted in the time of the first coming, these people persecute the messenger sent by Jesus by calling him a cult leader. Today, this one messenger sent by Jesus has come into the world (Rev 10; Eze 2-3).

[Man Hee Lee Quotes] Becoming the Light - Shincheonji

 

"Let us not think about who does right and who does wrong.

If we become the light, then all things will be resolved."

[Shincheonji God's Word QT] Our life of faith in Shincheonji

Main reference: 1 Cor 3:16-17
 
Shincheonji is not something of the old, but it is something new. It is the kingdom of God which He newly created after destroying what was old and corrupt. This is fulfilled at the time of Revelation through the Lord’s Second Coming. This is the new people of heaven of the new kingdom, the people who are harvested from the corrupt churches as wheat, born of the righteous seed of God.
 
Those who became corrupt in their life of faith are the outsiders. They are mere gentiles who have no part with God; They are sinners just like Adam. Their worship is offered to demons, not to God. How can the children of God have a relationship with demons? We cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons too, and we cannot have a part in both the Lord’s table and the table of demons (1 Co 10:21).
 
The coming of the end of the age of the believers is caused by their corruption. The Lord’s return comes so that the true believers can be delivered and saved from corruption. Satan controls every corrupt church (Mt 24, Rv 1-22), and God’s people, who are held captive, can cross over from death to life as they understand the word preached to them and come before the Lord (refer to Jn 5:24-25).
 
Look at Rv 2 and Rv 3. God and His Word are not in the kingdom that became the kingdom of demons due to its corruption. It is only a place full of money, fame, and authority. How can anyone say that he is not aware of this?
[2 Cor 6:14-18] Do not be yoked together with unbelievers [if you believe in God and his word]. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness? *What harmony is there between Christ and Belial? What does a believer have in common with an unbeliever? *What agreement is there between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said: “I will live with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be my people,” *“Therefore come out from them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you.” *“I will be a Father to you, and you will be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.”
This is the reality of Christianity at the time of the Lord’s second coming.
 
Whoever denies this denies Jesus and his word, and does not believe in Jesus and his word. This is the end of Christianity, and the Christian world became the kingdom of demons, Babylon, due to its corruption. Jesus’ words written in Mt 7, “By their fruit [actions] you will recognize them,” also apply to today’s time.
 
Because today’s Christian world does not have the Word, the spirit of God is not there. People love money and authority and make up numerous lies as if they were manufactured from lie factories. Corruption and curses are preval‍ent, and people are busy persecuting others just like the priests and the elders in the past. The reason for such actions is that they have become the people of Satan.
 
Their actions are bees’ sting, lobsters’ pinch, and vipers’ poison (refer to Prv 23:32). Pastors at the First Coming gathered and plotted to persecute and kill Jesus who fulfilled the Old Testament and testified to it. Likewise, pastors today are trying to kill Shincheonji that is fulfilling the New Testament and testifying to its reality as seen and heard. These pastors are obsessed with what they are doing, and it seems like they inherited the same traditions from the persecuting pastors at the First Coming. Will you say you are not aware of this, even with seeing this reality?
If the congregation members of Shincheonji and the pastors of the world took the same 100-question test regarding the Bible, the difference of their scores would be like heaven and earth. Would they still be able to continue to say with their lips that Shincheonji is heresy? If they are confident, they must participate in an open discussion about the Bible and take the test on the Bible, and they must compare their abilities to the abilities of the members of Shincheonji, instead of insulting Shincheonji.
 
Life of faith in Shincheonji is faith based on the highest truth of humanity that is given through the Spirit of truth, the Counselor, according to the promise of the Bible (refer to Jn 16:13-14). People of Shincheonji are children of God born of God’s seed of the word, and they are the word in flesh and the walking Bible. Just as God and His Son, Jesus, are both the word (refer to Jn 1:1-4; 1 Jn 1:1-2), the members of Shicheonji born of that word are also the word. The one who receives the word is God’s offspring, and he is a god whom God is with (refer to Jn 10:34-35; Acts 17:29).
The churches of the world once dwelled in heaven just like the sun, moon, and stars, and they were people who once shined their light. However, as the end of the age came, they became dark and fell to the earth, becoming a dark night (spiritually). They became the sons and the children of the night and of darkness. We in Shincheonji, by contrast, received the light of life and became the sons of the day and of the light. The churches of the world came to their end, and they now dwell in night and darkness where the word, the light, is absent. All nations fell because of the wine of adulteries, which refers to the doctrine of Satan. The scripture testifies that they married demons (refer to Rv 18:23), but we in Shincheonji have become the new creation born again with God’s seed. We give all the thanks and glory to the Lord God as His new creation (refer to Rv 7; Rv 14; Rv 19; Rv 21; Rv 12:10-11).
 
People’s dried hearts and spirits, which suffered from spiritual drought, are receiving showers of blessings—the new word of Shincheonji given by the holy spirit of truth. They are dancing for God and are offering glory to him. If any believer refuses to carry out a beautiful life of faith, and refuses the beautiful Shincheonji and the City of Truth, his reason for refusal is because he became Satan’s family. Whoever does not believe will receive destruction the world of Adam did, and whoever believes will become the person of heaven, the family of God, who is born from God.
 
Amen! Hallelujah! Thank you.

[Shincheonji God's Word] The church teaches the way to the God of Heaven

 

 

Religions like Christianity, Buddhism, and Confucianism are similar in that they all attempt to teach the path to heaven. The way to heaven, however, is known only to the one who has been to and come back from heaven. Since the way to heaven is not the way of the world, it is not something that just anyone can know or teach. God sends a messenger in every generation to work on his behalf. A spirit is sent from heaven to earth to teach and lead God’s messenger. Since heaven is where God and God’s kingdom are, believers with their hopes set on heaven must find it no matter where it might be. Can a pastor who has never been to heaven lead anyone else there?
Jesus came from heaven, returned there, and he will come from heaven once again (Jn 3:34; Jn 14:1-3). When and where will he appear? If he appears today, will anyone be able to see him and believe in him? Speaking from one’s own wisdom, knowledge, judgment, and thoughts is like spitting in the ocean to try and raise the tide. Physical thoughts and knowledge are different from spiritual thoughts and knowledge. Until the revelation (Matt 11:27), mentioned in the OT (Isa 29:9-14; Hab 2:2-3; Eze 1; Eze 2; Eze 3), came, all the religious leaders of the time taught only the teachings of men. This is why no one could understand Jesus’ revelation (Matt 22:29).
Similarly, from the time of the first coming to now, when the revelation of the NT has come (Rev 5; Rev 6; Rev 8; Rev 10), all pastors have been preaching only the teachings of men. Today, every pastor has his own interpretation of Revelation that springs from his own mind. This proves that men’s teachings have been taught until today. Anyone who believes in the true faith, the true heaven, and true eternal life must acknowledge the Bible and its fulfillment. They must accept the true revelation that Shincheonji is testifying. Instead of slandering us and calling us a devil-worshiping demon-possessed cult, in the same way the prophets and apostles of the past were persecuted, all believers should truly repent of their biblical ignorance and other wrongdoings. Blaming and persecuting others without knowing the Bible’s true meaning will not take you to heaven or grant you eternal life. You cannot make your thoughts and opinions true just because you want them to be true. Even pastors and theologians must learn the things they do not know to be saved.
The Bible is the standard of our faith. Since Shincheonji alone teaches the word of revelation, even if people want to repent and base their faith on the Bible, their efforts are futile unless they go through Shincheonji. If Shincheonji approached people today the way Jesus did at the first coming, this generation would be in an uproar. Do you remember what Jesus said at the first coming? If you believe what he said, then you will find what Shincheonji says faultless. Persecuting someone or some group as a cult without any biblical basis reveals a deep spiritual problem only in the person who is doing the persecuting. Shincheonji is doing its best to proclaim the truth of the prophecies of the Bible and their fulfillment. Those who receive the word of revelation and the testimony, keep it, and reach salvation are truly blessed (Rev 1:1-3).

[Shincheonji God's Word] Prayers at the End of the Age when All Nations have Fallen

Main reference : Rv 17-18
 
All nations have fallen and have become the possession of Satan, and maddening wine of adulteries comes out from the mouths of the pastors who have become Satan’s possession. At a time like this, where must the congregation members pray?
 
Because the Physical Israelites worshipped Gentile gods at the time of King Solomon, the 11 tribes in the North became the possession of the Gentiles and gave service in Samaria. One tribe in the South – the tribe of Judah—gave  service in Jerusalem. Even the one tribe of Judah (Jerusalem) in the South betrayed God and became the possession of Gentiles (Isaiah 1).
 
Furthermore at the time of Jesus’ First Coming, Israel was held captive by the Gentiles (Roman Empire). It was during this time Jesus came and spoke with a Samaritan woman. He said at this time, ‘it is not in Samaria, nor in Jerusalem, but when you pray go into your room’ (refer to Jn 4). Why did prayers and service have to be done in their rooms and not in the temples? God was searching for those who were praying in rooms. What is the reason for this? At that time, just like the words of Isaiah, Israel was captured by the Gentiles, and the pastors became Gentile pastors, offering service worshiping Gentile gods. This is because of the maddening wine of adultery; Satan’s words came out of the mouths of these pastors who became Gentile pastors.    
 
At the time when God and His son Jesus came, the actions of the pastors of that time were the actions of Satan, and the actions of an enemy.  Having service together with them is listening to the words of Satan, and worshipping Satan himself. Of the prayers that are lifted up, there are prayers the Lord does not accept or listen to according to the words of Isaiah chapter 1.
 
Today is the end of the age as a result of the corruption of the world of religion, and the end of the era Satan controlled. All nations fell as a result of the maddening wine of adulteries, and have married the spirit of Satan (Rv 17-18). Will God really receive prayers lifted up to Him from a place like this? Even today, it is the time to go into our rooms to pray just like at the time of the First Coming. 
 
At the time of Moses, God separated His people from the Gentiles, and the angels destroyed all the firstborns of the Egyptians. Also in Ezekiel chapter 9, a mark (seal) was placed on the foreheads of those who grieved and lamented over all the detestable things done in the city of Jerusalem. All those who did not have the mark were slaughtered. Even today, at a time when all nations have fallen, there are those who are sealed and those who are not. Those who are sealed will live, and foreigners (Gentiles) who are not sealed will be killed 1/3rd at a time (refer to Rv 8, 9).
 
Why is it that today, those who claim they are the most fervent believers do not believe in Jesus’ promises? Today there are the sealed people who are harvested, and the weeds that are not harvested. Of the two, whom will God save and whom will He throw out? Why do they not believe in the words of the Lord?  
 
The Christian Council of Korea (CCK) split into two (CCK and the Committee to Countermeasure Cults [CCC]). They are calling each other cults. Is this what you call orthodox? Are they believers who truly believe in the Lord? Is this what you call the light and salt of the world? Would God really dwell at a place like this?
 
Look at the 12 tribes at Mt. Zion who have been sealed and harvested. They are the Light created according to the New Testament promises God made. People at that time called Jesus, who came as the Light in the name of God, a heretic, and now there are those who call the pastor, who has united with the spirit of Truth who comes in the name of Jesus, a heretic. This is blasphemy against the Holy Spirit (refer to Mt 12:31).  Believers must discern for themselves which path is the road to salvation.

[Shincheonji World News] Jet-setting monk to explain himself

By Wisit Chuanpipatpong
 The Nation/Asia News Network
 Sunday, Jun 23, 2013

NAKHONPATHOM - Luang Pu Nenkham, who has recently been at the centre of a lot of negative publicity, is getting ready to clarify his position on Sunday, the National Buddhism Office's director Nopparat Benjawatananun said yesterday.
"He will hold a press conference and I will be there to listen," he added.
Luang Pu Nenkham landed in hot water after a video clip of him on board a private jet, sporting brand-name sunglasses and a Louis Vuitton bag went viral. More questions arose when a photograph of him lying next to a woman started doing the rounds on the Internet.
In addition, an activist lodged a complaint with the Crime Suppression Division (CSD) against the monk yesterday.
"I think his behaviour goes against the rules and beliefs of Buddhism," said Songkran Achariyasap, who chairs a network that monitors activities considered detrimental to national agenda, religion or monarchy.
Songkran, armed with documents and photographs, met CSD deputy commander Colonel Prasopchoke Prommoon yesterday. The CSD has agreed to investigate his claims.
"I have already assigned investigators to launch a probe. I will release the probe results at a later date," Prasopchoke said.
Songkran wants the division to investigate the case on 13 fronts, including Luang Pu Nenkham's status as a monk; his assets and the assets of those close to him; his donation campaigns; as well as his relationship with the woman seen lying next to him in the photo.
The activist also urged the CSD to check the background of people working for Khantitham Khao Na Co Ltd, a company linked to Wat Pa Khantitham, where Luang Pu Nenkham allegedly serves as abbot.
The temple is located on a plot donated by Lon Manas, who now wants it back. The 68-year-old donor said she had given the land to the monk in the hope that he would build a proper temple.
"More than 10 years have passed and he has still failed to construct a temple," she said.
Lon added that when she asked Luang Pu Nenkham about what had happened, he told her that if Wat Pa Khantitham gets registered as a temple, he would be subject to all kinds of scrutiny and so had decided against it.
"So, I will try to take the land back and ask other monks to help set up a temple instead," she said.

Nopparat said Lon had the right to lodge a complaint and hand the land over to other monks.

The rulers of the nation cam from traditional media for cheating go up and down constantly.
They were corrupt and dissolute.
'More than 10 years have passed and he has still failed to construct a temple.'
I feel like the temple of the true meaning is our souls.

Shinchonji is not Catholic or Protestant. It is the new heaven and new earth, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony that God and Jesus promised in the New Testament.
The promised true theology is the revealed word, the ‘new song,’ that only the saints, the promised 12 tribes, can learn, according to Revelation 14.
 Come and see whose evidence is the true one!
 

[Man Hee Lee Quotes] Flaws - Shincheonji

 

"Let us have pity for one another and help each other to realize our fauth.

Let us not condemn people because of their flaws."

[Shincheonji God's Word] Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony(1)

The following article has been written according to SCJ Open Bible.
Our purpose is to instruct all Christians in a deeper knowledge of God's word and to lead them to a deeper faith.

Why do we call our church
"Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony?"

"Shincheonji" is a Korean word that means new heaven and new earth.
It is a reference to the new heaven and the new earth in Rev 21.
We are the "Church of Jesus" because Jesus is the Lord of our church.
We use the name "The Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony" because we are the place where the testimony about the fulfillment of the New Testament is being proclaimed.
The fact that we are the "Temple" is also important because a temple is a holy place where God dwells (Rev 15:2-5).

The Holy City, the new Jerusalem (Rev 21:2)

While most churches in the world have concocted their names using their thoughts,
Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Tmeple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony and its congregation members are prophesied in the New Testament (Rev 1:6; Rev5:9-10; Rev 7:14).
We are the new kingdom of god and the new chosen people of God. It was approximately 2,000 years from Adam to Abraham (physical Israel) and another 2,000 years from Abraham to Jesus' first coming.
Today, it has been another 2,000 years since Jesus' first coming.
There have been many transitions over the course of biblical history.
The world of Noah began when Adam's world was put to an end.
The period of the law (physical Israel) began when the world of Canaan - the descendants of Noah - was put to an end.
The period of the church (Spiritual Israel), during which the seed of the gospel of heaven was sown, began when the period of the law was put to an end.
Today, the period of the church has come to an end and the time of harvest has begun.
Indeed, the period of the 1,000 years of Shincheonji Church of Jesus(Spiritual New Israel) has begun.

Althought they listened to the revealed word from Jesus (Isa 29:9-14; hab 2:2-3; Eze 1-3; Mt 15:24), because the Physical Israelites were accustomed to the teachings of men, they could not understand or accept Jesus' words.
Instead they persecuted him and his followers as heretics.
Today, over the alst 2,000 years the people of Spiritual Israel have been proclaiming the good news about Jesus, who fulfilled the Old Testament.
They have been spreading the seed of the gospel of heaven, which Jesus spoke in figurative language.
Although Spriritual Israel has worked so hard for so long to spread this gospel, they do not understand the revealed words of God's scroll being preached to them (Rev 6, Rev 8, Rev 10) - the scroll that was once sealed with the seven seals (Rev 5).
They, too, label those who deliver the revealed word as "heretics".
This tragedy has occurred because the testimony of the revealed word is at a different level than the teachings of men.
Just as Paul cast aside the knowledge of the world and opted instead for the revealed word (Php 3:7-9), believers of today must abandon the knowledge and teachings of men for the sake of the revealed word.
There will be salvation only for those who truly understnad the revealed word and believe it.

The Christian world today has been plunged into a spiritual night without the sun, moon, and stars (Mt 24:29-44; Rev 6:12-13).
Today believers live in comfort and secrity without discerning the nature of the times.
Those who live in comfort claiming to be saved, claiming to be orthodox, and claiming to have already received the Holy Spirit are not telling the truth.
The Bible tells us that the time of Revelation is a time for the passing of one generation and the approach and creation of another (Rev 21).
At the time of Revelation's fulfillment, those who are purchased by the blood of Jesus (Rev 5:9-10) and whose names are recorded among the 12 tribes (Rev 7) receive salvations as the chosen people of God's new kingdom.
Only those who understand the revealed word will "board the ark" of the 12 tribes and receive salvation.

[Purpose of Visiting Europe]

Greetings, brothers and sisters in Europe, it tis nice to meet you.

The message I would like to give to you today is Mt. 24, Mt. 13, and Revelation, the words of God's promise. I am not here to speak my own words.
I am to testify to you the words of the New Testament.
I am to let you know that the words of the new covenant,
promised by the blood of Jesus in the New Testament, have been fulfilled today by God and Jesus. Whether you believe or not believe, that is in your hands.
Though it would easily take over a month to tell you all these things in detail, I will summarize these words for you today.

[Mt 24, Signs of the End of the Age]

Everyone, today is a very important time in which one era is ending and another important era is beginning.
In this time, one must have a straight mindset and be deply roted in God's Word.

The war that is spoken of in Mt 24 can be easily understood if we take a look at the time of the First Coming.
At that time, who tried to capture Jerusalem?
It was the Pharisees who were called "Satan, snakes,"
as tried to capture Jerusalem (Mt23).
Who was working in Jerusalem?
Isn't it the place where John the Baptist, the messenger who prepares the way, was working in?

When the Pharisees threw out John the Baptist and overtook Jerusalem, Jesus fought against them.

with what did Jesus his fight with?
Did he fight with his fists?
Did he fight with the weapons of the world?
No, he did not.
He fought with "doctrines."
He fought with the Word of God.
Therefore, this war was not a war against the Gentile nations but a war against people from the same nation, the Pharisees and Jesus, who had different gods.
Jesus delivered the Word of truth to them that was given to him by God,
but they fought against Jesus with their own doctrines, teachings, and authority.

Such content is recorded in Mt 23.
Mt 24 speaks about the events that occur at the time of Jesus' Second Coming.
Just as such, the war at the end of the age is also a war between doctrines,
not a war fought with the weapons of the world.

[Mt 12, Two Types of Seeds and Harvest]

Just as God promised Jeremiah the Old Testament prophet, Jesus came and planted God's seed in this earth.
The place where the seeds were planted is in the church,
not anywhere else in the world.
However, the problem was that Satan, too, planted the weeds among the wheat (Mt 13:24~25).

Now, the time has come for the harvest, but what occurs at the time of harvest?
The weeds are tied in bundles to be thrown and be burned in fire, and the wheat are harvested and brought into the barn (Mt 13:30).

Then, what are these two types of seeds?
It is clearly written in Mt 13:37~39.
The disciples asked Jesus who replied,
"The good seed stands for the sons of the kingdom.
The weeds are the sons of the evil one."
It is also said that, "The mean by the end of the age?
Does it mean that this world will disappear?
No!
This means that everything belonging to the field where the seeds were sown comes to an end.
It is because it tis the time of harvest.

[Man Hee Lee, Shincheonji Open Bible] The Special Talk: Man Hee Lee and Lothar de Maiziere

Mr. Man Hee Lee met with various officials and peace makers(peace leaders) throughout Germany on his recent trip, spreading a message f peace and hope to the world.
 

"Unification must be fulfilled no matter what shape or form."

(Man Hee Lee, Chairman of Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony)

"Public opinion regarding unification is important."

(Lothar de Maiziere, the last Prime Minister of East Germany)

 


< Lothar de Maiziere, the last Prime Minister of East Germany >


Chairman Man Hee Lee of Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony (Shincheonji), who has been making various efforts for the Korean unification, had a three-hour-long meeting with the last Prime Minister of the German Democratic Republic (East Germany), Lothar de Maiziere, on May 11, 2012 (German date) at Cecilienhof Palace in Potsdam, Germany.
 


< The Special Talk at Cecilienhof Palace in Potsdam, Germany >


In order for this meeting to take place,
the chairman visited the German Embassy in Yong-San-Gu on May 4, the day before his departure, and met with Hans Ulrich Seidt German Ambassador to Korea and spoke with him regarding helping the relationship between Germany and Korea, giving him much expectations.
Chairman Man Hee Lee is already famous between the ambassadors for globally serving beyond national borders and friendly relationship with them through the global volunteer organization, "MANNAM" which he is the honorable chairman for.

 

 


This meeting was especially prepared for the Chairman Lee to ask the last Prime Minister Lothar de Maiziere about his experience in unification.

 

 

Chairman Lee started the conversation by saying,
"I would like for you to provide much help and guidance for the unification of Korea. Korea must be reunited."
The last Prime Minister of east Germany, Maiziere answered, "The basis of the German reunification came from the peaceful protest of its citizens.
What is important is the education of the Korean youth regarding the need for the Korean reunification."
He also said, "It is impossible to break apart the people of the same nationality for a long time.
The German reunification was not something expected, either.
It seems like history is made by God," and continued to give a positive message by saying, "I believe the Korean Peninsula will also be reunited soon."
chairman Lee also sincerely expressed his opinion that "the Korean reunificaiton is very important, for the purpose of world peace and religious independence."

What is the true meaning of the Lord’s prayer, and what are his kingdom and his righteousness referring to?
 
After the choosing of the disciples, starting in Matthew 5, Jesus gave us commands to keep as believers. One of them is the Lord’s prayer (Mt 6:9-13). He also said to seek first his kingdom and his righteousness (Mt 6:33). These are the two main points of Matthew 6.
 
After seeing the way in which the hypocrites prayed and gave to the needy, Jesus told his disciples not to do these things to be seen by men as they (hypocrites) do, but to pray to God who is unseen. He then told us what we should pray (Mt 6:1-13).

 
This prayer is the Lord’s prayer that many believers recite at the end of worship services. They do so with their mouths without knowing its meaning. If one does not follow through with their prayer in action, one is a liar to God. He listens to our prayers only if we act as well.
 
● Explanation of the Lord’s prayer
 
1) Verse 9: Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name
 
① In heaven
Where is the ‘heaven’ at which God resides? The place in Revelation 4 where God’s throne is located is the spiritual heaven. God coming to Jesus at the First Coming (Mt 3:16-17; 4:17) was the spiritual heaven coming down to earth.
Also, the ‘tabernacle’ on earth on which heaven came down was called ‘heaven’ as well. The reason is that just as the sun, moon, and the stars are in the sky, Israel, who are God’s chosen people, were figuratively referred to as the sun, moon, and the stars, and thus, God’s tabernacle was heaven, the spiritual sky (Gn 37:9-11; Rv 13:6; 12:1; 15:1, 5; Mt 13:24).

 
② Our Father
In John 8, when the Jews claimed that God was their father, Jesus said to them that their father is not the true God, but the lying devil (Jn 8:41-44). This was because they were born of the seed of the devil (liar).
Only by being born of God’s seed, which is his word (Lk 8:11), can one call God ‘father’. Furthermore, God will only acknowledge those born of his seed as his sons (children). God doesn’t just automatically become the father of someone born of the devil’s seed just because he calls (the true) God his father. Neither can he just automatically become God’s son.
 
③ Hallowed be your name
God is the creator of the heavens and the earth. He has no sin; he is the light of righteousness and life. He is the Lord who judges between righteousness and wickedness. He is also the owner of all nations and all creation. God is truly a holy and flawless being. It is only logical that his creation reveres and praises God’s holiness as he deserves.
 
2) Verse 10: Your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
 
① Your kingdom come
This is praying for the spiritual heaven to come down to and unite with the tabernacle of heaven on earth. It is also praying for God, who left the world, to come down to the recreated kingdom (tabernacle) on earth.
 
② Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven
Moses (Ex 25) and Jesus (Jn 5) fulfilled on earth just as they saw in heaven. In the same way, at the Second Coming, the one who fights against and overcomes the devil (the promised pastor) sees the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, in Revelation 21 and 4. He then fulfills it (Rv 3:12). Although the devil and his group will interfere with this, God and Jesus will be happy. We also ought to be happy, as seen in Revelation 19.
 
3) Verse 11: Give us today our daily bread
 
In the time of Moses, until they entered into Canaan, produced their own crop, and settled in the land, God gave the people of Israel manna from heaven every morning (Ex 16:14-36). Jesus said, however, that although the forefathers ate the manna that Moses gave, they died; but that he gives the food that does not spoil, that endures to eternal life. He said that this food was the living bread from heaven, his flesh and blood (Jn 6). Jesus himself is also the ‘Word’ as seen in 1 John 1.
The true daily bread that Jesus gives is the revealed word of the New Testament. This revelation was sealed in God’s right hand in Revelation 5, but Jesus opened it starting in Revelation 6, and thus, gave it as ‘the manna from heaven’, as the real food that endures to eternal life. The one who overcomes (i.e. the New John) in Revelation 10 is the only one through whom we can receive this (revelation).

 
4) Verse 12: Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors
 
⇒ Refer to the explanations of verses 14-15
 
5) Verse 13: Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. For yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.
 
① Lead us not into temptation
Jesus told us to pray this because he knew what would take place at his Second Coming. As seen in Matthew 24, nations will rise against nations and kingdom against kingdom. At that time, many fall into deception and temptation so as to betray each other; and as there is an increase of evil, the destroyer stands on the pulpit. He is telling us to pray to not fall into these temptations and trials.
 
② But deliver us from the evil one
He is telling us to pray for deliverance from the destroyer during when he strikes and overtakes the chosen people.
 
③ For yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.
It is only proper for the power and the glory to be God’s because he is the creator of everything, the Lord of all, and the Lord of lords (1 Cor 15:28; Ep 4:6; 1 Tm 6:15). All created things must befittingly give glory to the maker (creator) of all beings.
 
● Verse 14-15: For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. *But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.
 
Jesus spoke about forgiveness as follows.
In Matthew 18:21-35, the one whose master canceled his debt of ten thousand talents did not forgive his servant who owed him a hundred denarii, but had him thrown into prison until he could pay back the debt. The master, having heard this, called in the one whose debt he canceled, and asked why he threw his servant in prison instead of canceling his debt of a hundred denarii, when the master has canceled his own debt entirely. He then said that he too shall be thrown into jail, until he should pay back all that he owed.
This is a moral teaching regarding forgiveness. One who does not forgive others will not be forgiven.
 
● Verse 33: Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness.
 

What kingdom is this referring to? It is indeed referring to heaven. One cannot see or touch this heaven. Expressed in parables, heaven comes down on the tree that grows from a seed (Mt 13:31-32). This heaven also comes down on the one who overcomes (Rv 3:12). God’s kingdom (heaven) fulfills here on earth as it is in heaven, and it is to this place that heaven (above) comes down. This heaven is the kingdom that he told us to seek. This kingdom is the sealed twelve tribes of New Spiritual Israel (Rv 7, 14). We must seek and find this kingdom which God and the angels are with. Furthermore, ‘his righteousness’ that we must seek is the revealed word (Rv 10; 14:1-5) and faith, both of which can be found at this kingdom.

 
God’s will, as well as the objective of our faith that the 66 books of the Bible points to, is the twelve tribes of New Spiritual Israel, the kingdom that is created here on earth as it is heaven. This is the place we as believers must go to.
