Man Hee Lee, Elementary teachings and maturity

Elementary teachings and maturity

Main references: Heb 6 and 1 Cor 13

What (where) are the elementary teachings? What (where) is maturity?
Teachings refer to God’s word. The elementary teachings refer to the Mosaic Law, the fulfillment of the Old Testament during Jesus’ first coming, and the figurative prophecies.

The scripture records, “Let us leave the elementary teachings about Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again the foundation of repentance from acts that lead to death, and of faith in God, instruction about baptisms, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment” (Heb 6:1-2). The scripture also says, “For we know in part and we prophecy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known” (1 Cor 13:9-12).

Our hope as believers is to go to heaven and God. The only path to go to heaven and God is to go through Jesus, who is way, truth, and life (Jn 14:6). Hosea records that God desires acknowledgment of God rather than sacrifice or burnt offerings (Hos 6:6). Jesus also said, no one knows the father except those who receive the revelation (Mt 11:27). Furthermore, God spoke about how His people are destroyed from a lack of knowledge (Hos 4:6).

What we must believe in is the New Testament, more than the Old Testament. The Old Testament already passed away, but the New Testament is coming, and as a matter of fact, it is being fulfilled today. One of the reasons why the Physical Israelites did not believe, even though the Old Testament was fulfilled, was because they only knew and kept the Mosaic Law. They believed the law but they rejected the faith that should be revealed. The law, however, was a tutor which was put in charge to lead saints to Christ.

What we must believe is the prophecy and its fulfillment at the time of the fulfillment. Even if someone believes in the New Testament prophecy without believing in its fulfillment, their faith is futile. At the first coming, Jesus fulfilled the Old Testament (Jn 19:30), but the Physical Israelites did not believe. The Israelites believed in and put the words of their own pastors above the promises of God. How can they be acknowledged as true believers?

We (Christians) all believe in Jesus. The words Jesus spoke are the promises (new covenant) he asked us to believe. The physical embodiment of the words of the Old Testament appeared in flesh at the first coming. Likewise, the physical embodiment of the prophecy in the New Testament will also appear at the second coming. The betrayers, destroyers, and the savior recorded in the New Testament will all appear.

When the scripture says we need to leave the elementary teachings and go on to maturity, “the maturity” refers to the place which has the physical realities of the fulfillment of the prophecy. Prophecy was given to us so that when it happens, we will believe (Jn 14:29). When the events take place, their physical realities appear. If the prophecy is compared to a dream, then its physical fulfillment is compared to a reality.

One does not attain salvation just by superficially saying, “I believe.” The one who truly believes is someone who believes in the word which asks us to flee to the mountains when seeing the destroyer standing in the holy place, and actually flees according to that very word. Furthermore, a person who does this is the one who leaves the elementary teachings. As the prophecy is fulfilled, one can see the betrayers, destroyers, and the savior at the place of maturity, the location where people can see face to face.

What Jesus and Apostle Paul talked about in the New Testament is to leave the elementary teachings. Heaven, the sealed twelve tribes, is found in the place of maturity. Just as Paul mentioned, current believers in this world are dwelling in the elementary teachings, and they do not have the faith that should be revealed (refer to Rv 5:1-3). There is no one who can attain salvation with their current life of faith (refer to Rv 22:18-19).
Among the words Jesus spoke to the crowds, Jesus only explained the meanings of the parables to those who belonged to God. Jesus, however, only spoke in parables to outsiders who were not permitted to understand them. Jesus said, if one does not know the parables, they are an outsider, and they are unable to receive forgiveness of their sins (Mk 4:10-13).

He also stated that if one adds to and/or subtracts from Revelation, which is the promise written in parables, they will not attain salvation (Rv 22:18-19). All the pastors on earth have added to and/or subtracted from the prophecy. (Ask yourself) In a situation like this, who really has a right to call someone a heretic?

It is only one person (Jesus) who opens Revelation and fulfills it (Rv 6). It is also only given to one person (the New John) to testify (Rv 10). This New John is the promised pastor who has seen the physical fulfillment of the entire book of Revelation. Arrogant people have received authority and degrees of doctorates of divinity from men, and they testify about Revelation according to their own thoughts. They are nothing but the ones who are conducting lawlessness. They are unable to testify about the physical fulfillment of Revelation. They are the pastors of the devil who give the false wine, the wine of adulteries.

All believers must leave the elementary teachings. Without adding or subtracting from Revelation, everyone must come to the place where it is being fulfilled. They must see and believe in the maturity, and become the born again chosen people. Shincheonji’s twelve tribes are God’s promised kingdom. It is the place where God dwells. It is a place never before created, where one can find the testimony of the fulfillment of the book of Revelation and receive the revelation, which is the eternal gospel. It is the promised new heaven and new earth, Shincheonji. It is also the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony, the city of the highest truth in the 6,000 years of biblical history of mankind.

Whoever wishes let them come and drink the water of life, just as it says in Revelation 22:17 and they will attain eternal life.

Amen!

Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is Near by Man Hee Lee Shincheonji Church of Jesus

Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is Near!

Main reference: Mt 4:17

○ Time:        Roughly 2,000 years ago
○ Location:  Judah and Jerusalem
○ Scribe:      Matthew

What kind of place is the kingdom of heaven, which is near? Why does Jesus ask for repentance? Heaven is a spiritual world in which God dwells. Jesus asked for repentance because people must confess the sins which they have committed. Since the heaven which people have longed for has come, people can only welcome and enter into this heaven by confessing their sins and receiving forgiveness for their sins. This is the reason why Jesus asks people to repent.

What is the sin of which the chosen people, the Israelites, must repent? Just like the words of Isaiah, the chosen people, the Israelites, referred to as Judah and Jerusalem, betrayed God and worshiped gentile gods. This was their sin. According to 1 Kings 11, people worshiped gentile gods during the time of Solomon. Furthermore, if you look at Matthew 23, the Israelites appointed the Pharisees, who were snakes in the holy place, and worshiped them during the time of John the Baptist. This was their sin.

☼ From now on, two persons’conversations are used for giving more understanding.

- Did they repent of their sins? Did they believe in and accept God and the pastor whom God sent?
No, they did not.

- What did they do?
They persecuted the pastor whom God sent at the first coming, and in the end, they crucified and killed him.

- What did he preach to the people that they had to believe?
He preached the Old Testament, its fulfillment, and things that were yet to be fulfilled in the future (the New Testament).

- What was the result?
 Jesus said this gospel of heaven would be proclaimed to the whole world as a testimony to all people, and then the end would come (Mt 24:14). He also promised to return (Mt 24:29-31). He was arrested and crucified by the Jews; later, he resurrected and ascended to heaven.

- What did Jesus say concerning the situation of his return?
He questioned whether he would see faith on earth (Lk 18:8).

- Will there be persecution again at the second coming?
Yes, there will be persecution! Look at Revelation 11 (vv. 3-12).

- If there is persecution again at the second coming, how will the promises be fulfilled?
In the midst of persecution, during the first coming, Jesus fulfilled the Old Testament (Jn 19:30). The scripture also records, “It is done,” at the second coming (Rv 21:6).

- What did he promise to fulfill?  The New Testament!
At the Lord’s second coming, the pastors of God’s kingdom and the pastors of the devil’s kingdom are destined to fight against each other through ecclesiastical authority and words. As the chosen people are defeated, the devil’s pastor takes over the holy temple, and the one who destroys the chosen people stands in the holy place just like during the first coming (Mt 23). At that time, the promised pastor, who belongs to God, appears and fights against the devil’s pastor and overcomes him. At the end, the devil’s pastor and the devil are captured, and the devil is locked up in the Abyss (Rv 19:19-21, Rv 20:1-3).

The promised pastor (the one who overcomes) shouts, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near!” just like it was proclaimed at the first coming. This is the kingdom of the second coming. This is the promised event of the second coming.

- Why is he asking for repentance?
Jesus says, in Matthew 24, if we see the destroyer standing in the holy place, we must flee to the mountains. Today this prophecy has been fulfilled. However, people did not flee, but instead they received the teachings from the devil’s pastors and praised and worshiped them. During Japanese colonization, the Korean people of Christianity bowed down to a Japanese god and praised it. Please look at Revelation 13. People received a mark from the devil’s pastor and worshiped him. They betrayed God, but they were faithful to the devil. This is why the promised pastor is asking for repentance.

- Where has the kingdom of heaven, which is near, come?
Perhaps you might not have seen a Bible verse, which promises this very thing (Rv 3:12). It is the one who fights against and overcomes the devil’s pastor to which God, heaven, and Jesus come to (Rv 3:12), and the one who overcomes sits with them on the throne (Rv 3:21). At the first coming, God dwelt with Jesus, who overcame (Jn 16:33). At the second coming, Jesus comes to the one who overcomes and gives him the blessings recorded in Revelation 2 and 3. Maybe you have not realized this promise. Without this, there is no salvation. You might need to learn all over again. If you have studied the theology from the world, then you must also study the theology of heaven. It is as high as the heavens.

The first battle was between the tabernacle that prepared the way and the destroyers (Rv 13). The second battle took place with the promised pastor (Rv 12).

- Who won?
Take a look at the Bible.

- If one overcomes, what does he do?
There is a certain work he must perform.

- What is it?
He blows the trumpet to the north, south, east, and west and gathers people who are born of God’s seed. He teaches people with the things of heaven again and creates heaven, the leaders and the people of heaven (Rv 11:15, Rv 12:10, Rv 7, Rv 14, Rv 5:9-10). This is how harvesting and sealing takes place and how the creating of God’s kingdom, the new heaven and new earth, is carried out. God promised this work, and He has fulfilled it today at the appointed time. Now you should better understand why the promised pastor is asking for repentance, and what the kingdom of heaven that is near, is referring to.

Now is the time of song gu young shin ho shee jeol (ring out the old and ring in the new, a good season; 송구영신호시절), the time when the universe has completed its orbit. We have the food of eternal life that has come from heaven, which was given to the one who overcomes. If people keep drinking this water, sip by sip, it will lead them to eternal life. I am praying that everyone will eat of it and that they will become the family of heaven and live in heaven together.

Amen!

Man Hee Lee Advocate, Prophecies and Fulfillment of God’s Word Man Hee Lee Shincheonji Church of Jesus

Prophecies and Fulfillment

of God’s Word

Main reference: Jn19:30, Rv21:6

Adam who became a living being (Gn2:7) ate the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil that God told him if he are, he will surely die(Gn3). What is this tree of knowledge of good and evil and why was it made? What exactly is this tree that for the past 6,000 years until today the pastors did not know the true identity of this tree? The pastors and congregation members must know it’s true identity.

Inside Scriptures, there are many things hidden since of old, and what was hidden since the creation of the world, Jesus made it known by speaking them in parables (Mt 13:-34-35). At that time, the fulfillment was not spoken since it was not time yet. It was prophesied however, that when the time comes, everything will be plainly known (Mt13, Jn16).                  
What God promised to Abraham (Gn15), He fulfilled all of it at the time of Moses (refer to Ex12:37-41, Jos 1:1-9) and what was promised through the Old Testament prophets, was fulfilled at the first coming of Jesus (Jn19:30). Furthermore, what was promised by Jesus in the New Testament, he promised with his blood that it will fulfill at the time of his second coming (refer to Mt26:26-29, Lk22:14-20,Rv21:6).       
 
 What the congregation members hope for is the fulfillment of the New Testament. The New Testament is recorded focused on Revelation, and it’s written anyone who adds or takes away from the prophecies of Revelation cannot enter the kingdom of heaven (Rv22:18-19).  However, the pastors and the congregation members of this generation have their hearts closed, and do not even think about the prophecies and fulfillment to the New Testament. Instead they are stained with their own thinking, proclaiming commentaries they made on their own, putting it above Scriptures. As a result, although they have the Bible, it’s nothing but a sealed book, with meaningless writings to them. Furthermore, inside the commentaries these people made, they have distorted and misunderstood Scriptures, interpreting it on their own, making it “another gospel” (Gal 1:8-9). This is their seed, it is their wild wine. (Dt32:32-33). Inside God's Word (Bible) contains life (Jn 1:1-4), and inside the words of man born of original and hereditary sins, there is death (refer to R0m5:12, Rom8:6). Those who carry out their walk in faith with the Bible as their standard belong to God, and those who follow books of commentaries belong to man.
    
God made known what will be fulfilled in the New Testament to the whole world for the past 2,000 years (refer to Mt24:14). Just as He promised, the New Testament was fulfilled in a nation in the East. In order to make this fulfillment known to the churches, Jesus chose a person to testify on His behalf, having him make known the reality to the fulfillment of the New Testament Revelation (Rv22:16).          
    
Until the faith that is revealed in the New Testament comes, the congregation members are locked up under prophecies (refer to Gal3:23), waiting for that time to come. At the time of the revealed fulfillment, we are no longer under prophecies, but we become righteous through faith that is opened and revealed, becoming the sons of God who receive our inheritance (refer to Gal3:26-29).
   
The messenger who testifies on behalf in the New Testament is the pastor promised by the Lord, who has seen and heard the fulfillment of the New Testament – Revelation, who makes everything known according to what was commanded to Him, a pastor who is absolutely needed. This promised pastor is one who fought and overcame the pastors of Satan (Rv2-3, 12:10-11), the one and only witness who saw all those who appeared as reality at the location of fulfillment (refer to Rv1:2, 22:8, Rv11).     

Furthermore, he is also the messenger who testifies on behalf whom the Spirit of Truth is with, who comes in the name of the Lord (refer to Rv19:10, 22:16).
   
At the time of the first coming, to John the Baptist Elijah was with him (Lk1:17), to Jesus God was with him (Mt3:16-17, Jn5). The one who overcomes promised in the New Testament today, the messenger who testifies on behalf, is one with the Spirit of truth the Counselor who comes in the name of Jesus (Jn14:16-17, 26).
   
The Spirit of Truth is the spirit that brings the Word(Truth), testifying plainly the fulfillment (reality) to what Jesus did not make known plainly and His words spoken in parables (Jn16:12-13, 25).
    
The pastor whom God fulfilled the promises made to Abraham was Moses. The pastor who fulfilled Old Testament was Jesus (refer to Jn19:30). The pastor at the time of the New Testament fulfilled is just like Jesus (Jn16:33) the One who overcomes (rerfer to Rv2,3,12). The one who overcomes just like Jesus (Mt11:27) received the revealed word of the New Testament, and makes it known (Rv10). The difference between those who received the revealed word of the New Testament verses those who don’t is like the heavens and the earth, the difference between heaven and hell.  Not one person from the church pastors and the congregation members belonging to churches coming to an end according to the New Testament Scriptures (refer to Rv6, Rv13) will gain salvation. Anyone who knows the will of the New Testament will say the same thing.

Although the heir is the owner of everything, when he is a child, he is no different from a slave, a congregation member under guardians and stewards (pastors). When the appointed time comes, God sends the spirit of His son into our hearts, allowing us to become sons who receive God’s inheritance (Gal4:1-7). It is with revealed faith of the New Testament one can become sons of God, the heirs of God’s inheritance. As a result, those who do not receive the revealed word, are like the night, the sons of darkness whether they are pastors or congregation members - who do not know the True God, heaven, Jesus, or the one whom He sent, or the fulfillment of Revelation. However, God and life dwells with those who received the revealed word, so as a result they are like the day, the children of light (1Thes5:1-9).
   
Those who are in the midst of darkness will believe persecution, which are the actions of Satan are right.
    
In order to dwell with the Holy Lord, the Light of Life, we too must become righteous, and the way to become righteous is through the revealed word (Jn17:17) that is life and light.

Man Hee Lee Advocate, Shincheonji Church of Jesus- The Energy of the West That Came to the East, the Fulfillment of the East Made Known to the West

The Energy of the West That Came to the East,

the Fulfillment of the East Made Known to the West

Main reference: Mt 24

God, the creator of the heavens and the earth, sent his son Jesus as the savior of mankind, to a world of evil and sin. Jesus came to this evil world in obedience to God’s command. He took up the cross on our behalf for our sins, granted us life, and left. This means that the world was shown huge grace, and also is in a huge debt to the heavens.  

God said in Acts chapters 1 and 2 to be Jesus’ witnesses to the ends of the earth after receiving the Holy Spirit, and in Matthew 24:14, it is written, “…this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” The “end” here refers to the harvest, “the end of the age”, as written in Matthew 13:37-39. It is also the end of the sun, moon and stars, the end of spiritual Israel, and the end of the churches, where not one stone will be left on another (refer to Mt 24:1-2, 29-31). This is the same time as when the first heaven and the first earth passes away in Revelation 21, and a new heaven and a new earth is created; it is the same time as when the first heaven ends in Revelation 6 and a new heaven is created in Revelation 7.

As Jesus prophesied 2,000 years ago, the gospel of the kingdom was proclaimed from the West to the East (thus, “the energy of the west that came to the east”), all the way to the end of Asia, to the land of the East, the Republic of Korea.   
This was proclaiming that the gospel of the kingdom (prophecies) that Jesus promised would fulfill; and because it has been proclaimed, the gospel has come to an end; and now, as promised, the gospel is being fulfilled. 
The promised gospel was fulfilled in the East, in the Republic of Korea, so now, the fulfillment is to be made known in the West, from where the gospel was first proclaimed. This is the act of returning the energy of the west that came to the east – by making known what has been fulfilled in the east back out to the west. This is making known to the whole world that which it has been waiting for – the fulfillment of the gospel of the kingdom that Jesus promised. Jesus is making this known in the way that he promised in Revelation 22:16, “I, Jesus, have sent my angel (the pastor who speaks on behalf) to give you this testimony (what has been fulfilled in Revelation) for the churches.” Furthermore, it is as Jesus said in John 14:29, “I have told you now before it happens, so that when it (what was promised) does happen you will believe.”

 

To all the believers worldwide living in the New Testament era, who are you waiting for, and what are you waiting for to fulfill? Are you not waiting for the Second Coming of Jesus, for the promised pastor to come, as well as for the New Testament to fulfill? These three things have fulfilled here on earth, so come and see for yourselves! In Matthew 21:43, Jesus told the Israelites at that time, “…the kingdom of God (heaven) will be taken away from you and given to a people who will produce its fruit,” and that kingdom is here today in the Republic of Korea – Shincheonji.

If the promised Revelation does not fulfill, then there is neither salvation for mankind nor God’s kingdom here on earth. The era promised in the New Testament, the era of harvest, the era of sealing, the era of the creation of the twelve tribes of heaven, and even the era of making known the fulfillment of Revelation, is right now, and right now only. Jesus said that this era will be like the days of Noah and Lot (Lk 17:26-30). Think hard about those days, and put in strenuous effort now.   

God’s will, and even our hope, is fulfilling heaven here on earth as it is done above. Today, just like the First Coming, other than the one who receives the revealed word (the fulfillment of Revelation), no one knows heaven, God, Jesus, or whom they have sent, and no one can enter heaven (refer to Mt 11:27; Jn 17:3).

Heaven and hell is right in front of us today, so if you have eyes, ears, and discernment, then come and see. The fulfillment of the New Testament is here. Those who see and believe become the citizens of heaven.

A Great Success at the Requested Lectures

in Overseas Countries

 

◎ The content of the lectures during the seminars

Testimony of the unprecedented physical fulfillment of all the chapters of Revelation
About 2,000 years ago, Jesus proclaimed through his disciples the gospel of the kingdom of heaven (to be fulfilled in the future) to the whole world and even to the ends of the earth (Mt 24:14). Today according to his promises, Jesus completely fulfilled it in the Republic of Korea, the country of the far-east, located at the ends of the earth. The Lord has chosen Chairman Lee who saw and heard the physical fulfillment of Revelation in the very location it was fulfilled. The Lord has commanded him to go and proclaim this fulfillment to the believers who believe in Revelation and look forward to its fulfillment. This is why Chairman Lee made a visit and gave the testimony.

Chairman Lee is the messenger of the Lord, prophesied in Revelation 22:16, who speaks on his behalf. He proclaimed that he came as the fulfillment of the very verse that states that Jesus has sent his angel (referring to the messenger both in the spiritual and physical worlds) to give this testimony (regarding the events of the entire book of Revelation) for the churches. The revealed word he proclaimed is the unprecedented testimony about the physical fulfillment of Revelation’s prophecies. He pleaded with people to verify his testimony and believe so that they would become the citizens of heaven. Chairman Lee also said at the seminar at the Times Center, New York, that no one knows God, Jesus, and heaven, and no one knows the promised physical fulfillment of Revelation, unless he receives the promised revelation (refer to Mt 11:27; Jn 17:3).

Furthermore, instructor (Chairman) Lee made known to the crowds the purpose of his visit. He said that he came neither to judge pastors nor congregation members, nor to earn money nor evangelize to people. The promises of Revelation have become flesh (have fulfilled), so he was making known that which he saw and heard in the location it was fulfilled, that which he was commanded to speak of. He also made a point that no one could now make an excuse on the day of judgment that they did not heard about it (refer to Jn 15:22). 

On hearing this revealed word, pastors and press officials there were filled with inspiration, and their smiles, like the flowers of heaven, embroidered the area. The continuing sound of applauses and “amen’s” were like the billows of grace. Without drinking a sip of water, Chairman Lee proclaimed the message for almost two to three hours, and his voice was like the sound of a roaring lion. All these are evidence that God has fulfilled the promised new covenant.
After the seminars, the press officials all agreed that Chairman Lee did not seem like he was 82, but a young man of 25. It was truly a miracle among miracles.
How does the state of the believers of the world look today? The following is the diagnosis of the current state of the believers in this world.

God made a promise with Abraham when Adam’s and Noah’s worlds became corrupt. God came to Moses and fulfilled these promises. In Exodus 19:5-6, God also made a covenant with the descendants of Abraham, the Israelites. With the guidance of Moses and Joshua, the Israelites made it to the land of Canaan. By erecting a large stone in Shechem, Canaan, they made an oath that they would not worship any other gods except God (Jo 24). After this, Solomon broke the covenant and worshiped gentile gods (1 Kgs 11). In doing so, the Israelites, like Adam, became the possession of the gentile gods (Hos 6:7). Thus, God had appointed the Old Testament prophets and promised future events through them. After these promises were proclaimed, God came to Jesus and fulfilled the Old Testament. God also established the New Testament (the new covenant) through Jesus. As promised, the end would come when the New Testament (the covenant made in blood; Lk 22:20), which is the gospel of the kingdom, would be preached to the whole world as a testimony to all nations (Mt 24:14).

 

The world and the life of faith of the churches during Jesus’ First Coming
Jesus came to the corrupt Israelites who were serving gentile gods. He exhorted them to be born again (refer to Mt 4:17; Jn 3:5), but not knowing themselves (refer to Jer 31:32), they still thought that they were the chosen people of God, the standard for orthodoxy, the righteous with the greatest faith, and good keepers of the law. They treated Jesus and his disciples as though they were heretics, even the devil himself, and they excommunicated and killed them (refer to Acts 24:5; Mt 23:34; Acts 7:51-53; Heb 11:35-38). Who were the real heretics and the children of the devil (refer to Mt 23:33)?
The world and the life of faith of the churches during Jesus’ Second Coming
Right before Jesus’ Second Coming, Jerusalem (God’s temple) was destroyed and held captive by the gentiles; as it was in the First Coming (Mt 23), the destroyer stood in the holy place and ruled (refer to Mt 24). The pastors of Satan, the Nicolaitans in Rv 2 and Rv 3, invaded the tabernacle of the congregation members (i.e. the tabernacle of the seven golden lampstands = the Tabernacle Temple = the tabernacle of heaven, Revelation 13:6). They fed the believers food sacrificed to idols, and enticed them to receive the teachings of Nicolaitans as well as commit adultery with the spirit of the devil. The beastlike pastors of the group of the dragon (Satan) in Revelation 13 entered into God’s tabernacle and fought against and conquered the congregation members. These pastors forced them to receive their (the pastors’) mark on their foreheads and hands, and the congregation members worshiped the pastors of Satan.

As according to Revelation 17 and 18, the pastors of the earth and their congregation members became drunk together with the prostitute of Babylon, the home of demons, off her wine of adulteries. All nations fell because of this wine of adulteries; and with it, all the pastors of this world did business—that is, evangelize and give sermons. They also married the spirit of Satan (refer to Rv 18:23). This is how the churches of the world carry out their life of faith at the Lord’s Second Coming. This is the very reason for which Jesus said in Luke 18:8, “When the son of man comes, will he find faith on the earth?” Are such actions the actions of keeping the new covenant that was made with blood?

Nevertheless, just like the pastors at Jesus’ First Coming, the pastors of this world do not know themselves. They think that they are with God, despite being with gentile gods. They think that their father is God, and that the gentile doctrines are the truth, and that their prayers and worship are lifted up to God. They also label people other than themselves as heretics (cults) and the devil. Some examples that show how their doctrines and actions are not in line with the Bible are that they give and take money in exchange for the president position of the Christian Council of Korea (the CCK). Also, anyone who pays money can become a pastor.

Not only did their senior pastors bow down before the Japanese emperor during the Japanese colonization, but pastors today are dwelling in gentile gods, having received the mark from and worshiped the group of the dragon. Who are they to label others as cults? Isn’t this the reality of the current Christian world? Jesus stated that whoever adds or subtracts anything from the book of Revelation will not enter heaven, but receive plagues (Rv 22:18-19). The CCK, which belongs to the Protestant Church, is completely adding and subtracting from Revelation. How can they be the orthodoxy or the truth? Can they still claim to believe in the Lord? Can they say that they have kept the new covenant? Who is calling whom a cult? Are these people qualified to label others as cults?
The promised pastor of Shincheonji is the messenger who speaks on behalf, whom Jesus sent for the churches (Rv 22:16). This messenger was sent for the churches to testify the physical fulfillment of Revelation (refer to Rv 1:2; Rv 10). He said countless times that if one finds fault (lies) in Shincheonji’s word of testimony, one should speak up. It is not Shincheonji’s fault that the congregation members from other churches stream to Shinchonji. They stream to us to receive the revealed word of truth, and also because the current churches, along with the CCK, have become corrupt and do not have the truth. 

Why do they have hard feelings against us instead of saying sorry and thank you to us? Doesn’t the way they act resemble the devil? Those who belong to the earth (refer to Jn 3:31) have the spirit of the devil, and for that reason they have added and subtracted from Revelation. This very fact will keep them from going to heaven. Anyone who belongs to these people must leave them and find the path to life (refer to Rv 17:14; Rv 18:4). Jesus pointed out that a prophet has honor not in his own country (Jn 4:44) but in others. As it is stated, the promised pastor in Shincheonji is being severely rejected by the Korean pastors, but he received such a huge welcoming reception in Europe and the United States. They welcomed him with palm branches in their hands (refer to Jn 12:13), and they were standing on the streets, rooftops, and walls. During this warm reception, the clouds in the sky formed themselves into the shape of a cross, and it heated up the reception even more. Pastors and journalists there also gave him a heartfelt reception as well, and the pastors got busy inviting him to their churches. Christians in Korea are being tied up by their pastors, kept from being harvested and receiving grace and salvation. It seems that the people of other countries will be the ones to receive salvation as the great multitude in white. Someday when the Christians in Korea realize this fact, where will their pastors be able to flee?

At Noah’s era, the sinful world of Adam—where people worshiped the gentile snake—came to an end. At Moses’ era, the sinful world of Canaan (Noah) came to an end. At Jesus’ First Coming, Moses’ Physical Israelites faced their end, and at Jesus’ Second Coming, the Spiritual Israelites are brought to an end. In each and every era, when the first heaven sinned against God, he prophesied about the appearance of the new heaven. By the time that prophecy was widely proclaimed, God chose one pastor to bring the first heaven to an end, and fulfilled the new heaven as promised. The first heaven of today is Spiritual Israel that started at the First Coming of Jesus. The new heaven is the new heaven and the new earth, Shincheonji, of Revelation 7, 14, and 21. A generation comes to an end because of its corruption and unity with the gentile spirit of Satan. The eternal new kingdom and new people prophesied in the Bible are the twelve tribes in Revelation that are harvested and sealed.
When this kingdom is completed, God’s objective is accomplished, his work finally ends, and the eternal Sabbath-rest comes. How can the people of the world possibly know this? They claim to be believers on the outside, but they are not aware that they have the false spirit of Satan.
No one can know God, Jesus, the promised pastor, the Bible, heaven, or that Revelation has fulfilled, unless he is born again by receiving the promised revealed word. Furthermore, no one can attain salvation, but will go to the fires of hell together with their own god. How can the Scriptures be broken (Jn 10:35)?

Whoever calls himself the orthodoxy without receiving the revelation of today (the Second Coming) is a liar who received the spirit of Satan. Whoever adds or subtracts from Revelation cannot go to heaven (Rv 22:18-19), and such people are the children of the devil, born of the seed of weeds, the seed of the wicked (Mt 13). Today, whoever is not harvested proves himself to be a weed, a son of the evil one.
No matter who, all will be judged according to their deeds as recorded in the Bible, and they will either go to heaven or hell (Rv 20:12-15). The twelve tribes who are harvested and sealed today will live eternally with God in paradise (Rv 21:1-4; 22:1-5).
Amen!

Shincheonji Church of Jesus, Who is Man Hee Lee (Man Hee Lee peace advocate)?

The chairman of Shincheonji Church of Jesus, Man Hee Lee's life of faith began on day in the midst of prayer.
A huge star from heaven came down and, by its guidance, he met a heavenly pearson. He then wrote a pledge in his won blood and swore his loyalty.
From that moment on, he walked on the path of faith.
He saw and heard the events of the New Testament and he is now testifying about Revelation according to the commands of Jesus.

During this time when christianity is rapidly decreasing in Korea, hundreds of thousands of people from the East, West, North and South are gathering and believing, after hearing the work of the Holy Spirit and the testimony of Revelation.
The new of all this rapid growth is spreading internationally as Christian Instructor Man Hee Lee receives numerous invitations to speak.

The content of his lecture is the testimony of the fulfillment of the New Testament - a testimony that is making known the fulfillment of the promises of Jesus, which has never happened before and will never happen again.

This testimony is given to those who believe in the prohecies of the Bible and have been waiting their fulfillment.
Having started in the Republic of Korea, the fulfillment will now go out to the ends of the earth.

Pastors Who Did Not Believe in Every Generation & the Persecution_ By Man Hee Lee peace leader, shincheonji church of jesus

Pastors Who Did Not Believe

in Every Generation & the Persecution

Main reference:  Is 1
(further reference:  Acts 7:51-53; Mt 23; Mt 5:11-12; Lk 20; 1 Kgs 11)


    In every generation, why do the pastors not believe, lie, and persecute? 

God made a covenant with the Israelites, who came out of Egypt, through Moses in Ex 19:5-6. The content of the covenant:  If you keep my covenant, you will become God's kingdom and priests and a holy nation. However, they bowed down to gentile gods during the time of Solomon as it is written in 1 Ki 11, and as a result, eleven tribes became North Israel, that is, gentile, and in Jerusalem, which was located in the South, Judah was the only tribe left. As it is written in 1 Ki 11, as could be seen from Is 1, Judah and Jerusalem were also captured by the gentiles. 

In order to save these people, God prophesied numerous times through the Old Testament prophets about the future of Judah and Jerusalem and made it known to His people that Jesus, the savior, would come. However, the pastors, who had become Satan's gentile pastors, cruelly killed the prophets, who prophesied. Regarding this, Jer 31 and Hos 6 say that the people broke the covenant like Adam.  At a time like this, Jesus came and carried out the work of salvation with the twelve disciples, but the pastors and elders at that time did not believe.  Instead, they treated Jesus and his disciples like the Old Testament prophets by labeling them a cult, persecuting them, and killing them.  Amongst them, who is the true pastor and who is the false pastor?  Who is God's pastor and who is the devil's pastor?  As could be seen from the Bible, the prophets, the apostles, and Jesus came to the nation that had become Satan's nation, to the pastors who had become Satan's pastors, to the people who had become Satan's people, fulfilled the Old Testament and proclaimed about what was fulfilled. However, Israel did not realize what kind of situation they were in and they thought they were the righteous, chosen people. Jesus and the disciples, who had come into this kind of world, promised what is stated below and were killed. 

< The promise for the Second Coming:  Jesus said he would come like a thief in the night and harvest (Mt 24). 
He said those who are harvested would be sealed in the name of God and Jesus (Rv 7). 
He said God's kingdom, the twelve tribes, would be created through those who are sealed (Rv 14). 
He said if anyone adds to or takes words away from the words of Revelation, he would not be able to enter heaven and be cursed (Rv 22:18-19). 
He said only those whose names are recorded in the book of life are able to enter heaven (Rv 21:27). 
 He said the one who overcomes Satan's pastor would receive the blessings of Rv 2 and 3 (Rv 12). >

Who is the true believer--the one who believes in this word of prophecy or the one who doesn't believe?
What is stated above is one of the most epoch-making and important content of the New Testament that gives hope to the believers.
These prophecies have been fulfilled today in the Republic of Korea.  "I have proclaimed it." 
I have seen and heard the fulfillment, and I am testifying about the physical fulfillment of the prophecies as I have been commanded. 
Are those who persecute someone because that person is testifying about these things believers or the devil?
Are they God's pastors or the devil's pastors?  Please judge for yourself. 
Are they not like the false pastors who killed the prophets and apostles?  Why do they not believe? 
Is it not proof that they do not believe in God or His Word (New Testament) (Rv 21:8)?
Are they not like the priests and elders of Israel who did not believe even if Jesus fulfilled the Old Testament and testified about it (Lk 18:8; Rv 9:20-21)?
Are they not the same as those who persecuted Jesus and labeled Jesus a cult?
Will these people go to hell or to heaven?
It is written that people will be judged according to their deeds as written in the books.  Please read Rv 20:12-15 and Jn 12:48.  These things are happening right before our very eyes. 
It is sad to see the false pastors, who are captured by the devil, and it is also sad to see the believers, who are captured by Babylon, the devil's kingdom, and do not know this fact. 
If they do not believe in the Bible, why do they carry it around?  It is a sad situation.  They are blind!

The chosen people, whose citizenship was in heaven (Phil 3:20) and who were referred to as the sun, moon, and stars of spiritual Israel (Mt 24:29; Rv 6:12-13), became dark and fell from heaven. The reason for this is because they were destroyed by Satan's pastor (Mt 24:15).  The reason why the sun and moon (pastor) could no longer shine light (Word) was because they were struck (Rv 8:12) by Satan's pastor's authority.  To say they fell from heaven means that they went from being the citizen of heaven as a result of the Holy Spirit to returning to the earth, that is, the flesh and becoming a part of Babylon's group.  It means they were captured and enslaved (Rv 17, 18). 
This is how the life of faith within spiritual Israel became like the night.  When it becomes like the night, Jesus comes with the angels and harvests.  They come like a thief in the night to gentile Babylon where the believers are captured and quietly bring people out from there.  This is the work of salvation and harvesting.  Please read 1 Thes 5:2; Rv 17:14 and Rv 18:4.  This is why Jesus harvests like a thief in the night. 
If one truly believes in Jesus and his words of promise, one should realize that the promise has been fulfilled when he hears about the news regarding the work of harvesting and come running.  "Those who believe in the New Testament"
The reason why one doesn't come running is because he doesn't believe in the promise. 
Anyone who hears about the work of harvesting, sealing, and the creation of the promised kingdom, the twelve tribes, realizes that the promised prophecies are coming true, and believes in this would come running. 

Those who do not believe nor come and instead persecute do this because they have become the devil's kingdom, Babylon.  Although they add to or take words away from Revelation and do no not have their names recorded in the book of life, they do not consider this seriously and think of themselves as orthodox.  This is proof that their lives of faith are false.  If they heard that the New Testament prophecies have been fulfilled, they should put everything aside and come looking for the fulfillment.  This is what a believer should do.  Isn't this what believers hoped for and isn't this why believers carried out their lives of faith?
How can a dead life of faith and a dead spirit regard this as precious?  "It is so heartbreaking." 

As the pastors and the people of physical Israel, which had become gentile, did not believe even if Jesus fulfilled the Old Testament and proclaimed about it, today, the reason why the pastors and the church members do not believe is because a different water has been mixed.  "Please take a look at Is 1:22."
God gave offered his Son on the cross for the new kingdom of the New Testament.  Jesus, the Son, sacrificed himself and shed his blood.  This was proclaimed for two thousand years and the promised kingdom has been fulfilled as mentioned above.  We are raising our voices and asking people to believe this (refer to Rv 5:4-10). 
If people do not believe like the First Coming, then God, Jesus, and the spirits will strike the ground and wail. 

Let us believe.  Let us unite.  Let us become the promised kingdom.  "The Counselor is crying out."
We at Shincheonji know the reality of each generation through the Spirit of Truth, who comes in the name of the Lord, and this is why we are teaching again through the Introductory, Intermediate, and Advanced Level teaching materials.
For those who have not been harvested, we help them to be harvested.  For those who have not been sealed, we help them to be sealed.  For those who have added to or taken words away from Revelation, we help them not to do so.  For those who are not a part of the promised kingdom, the twelve tribes, we help them to become a part of the twelve tribes.  For those whose names have not been recorded in the book of life, we help them to have their names recorded in the book of life. 
Should we call Shincheonji, who is doing this work, a cult?  Or should we thank them?
Is there anything more precious than this for a believer?
We have sent letters urging repentance and making the facts listed above known to pastors in Korea and all over the world, and therefore, they will not be able to make an excuse by saying they did not hear about it on judgment day (refer to Jn 15:22). 
The words of the messenger, who speaks on behalf of Jesus, are the words of Jesus, and the words of Jesus are the words of God, the Father (Jn 16:8-15). 

The words that were testified were the promised words of Revelation; that is, life was conveyed.  If one does not believe, it does not mean one does not believe in the messenger, who speaks on behalf of Jesus.  It means one does not believe in Jesus' words, that is, one does not believe in God's words. 
Those who believe will receive salvation.  Those who do not believe will be thrown into the lake of fire as a result of the sin of not believing. 
Shincheonji earnestly prays that people will believe and receive salvation. 

Amen!

Pastor, do you have the Bible?
When the disciples asked, Jesus said, "...this gospel will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come," (Mt 24:14).  He also said the time of the harvest is the end of the age (Mt 13:37-39). 
The sun, moon, and stars (Gen 37:9-11, Mt 24:29, Rv 6:12-13) turning dark and falling, and the temple being destroyed with not one stone left on another is the end of spiritual Israel.  It is making known that the generation of the church of spiritual Israel has come to an end. 
Please do not neglect words of advice that are given at this time as well as the words that are spoken on behalf of Jesus.
The hearts of the pastors living at the end of the age are like the sun that cannot shine light. 
Our branch is located in Cape Town, and therefore, in order to go to heaven and attain eternal life, please throw away yourself and with a heart to be born again, please study.
It was very difficult to say these words to you, Pastor. 
This is because you are a pastor of stature. 
I ask you earnestly.  You have not learned anything here because of time. 
Please try to lower yourself once, become a layman, and try studying.
There are countless lives depending on you.

Dear Pastor Barry Isaacs,

Pastor Barry Isaacs, how are you doing?
I write this letter as I envision you in my mind.
I fear that we were lacking in our hospitality in the midst of a hectic schedule. 
Our prayers are continually with you.

Pastor Isaacs, I liked your facial expressions and your voice. 
If you click on the two Internet broadcasting links (www.scj.tv) and the two links of "The Correct Understanding of Shinchonji" (correctunderstandingofshinchonji.wordpress.com/tag/correct-understanding-of-the-bible-and-shinchonji/), you will be able to see more information.  Pastor Isaacs, I, too, have thrown everything away and am doing God's work as my life. Let us forgive, love, and bless one another and act in accordance to the Lord's will.
There is nothing to look back at a world that is passing away.

Our branch is available in Capetown and so I would like to request that you would humble yourself like a child, who is not yet mature, and with a heart that desires to be born again, please listen from Lesson 1 of the Introductory Level. 
If you graduate after the Advanced Level, God will be with you.
I have enclosed an attachment.  Please read it.
I pray that the grace of the Lord be with you abundantly.

[Man Hee Lee peace leader;quotes] The pastor whom Jesus has Promised in the New Testament

 

The Pastor Whom Jesus has Promised in the New Testament

           -Man Hee Lee quotes-

Jesus promised in the New Testament what is yet to be fulfilled.
He said, “I have told you now before it happens, so when it does happen you will believe” (Jn 14:29).
If anyone hears the news regarding the fulfillment of the New Testament, he must make an effort to go and verify the testimony through the Bible.
Such a person is a true believer.

The correct understanding of the Bible and of Shincheonji
Written by Man Hee Lee peace leader(peace advocate)

[Man Hee Lee peace advocate; Shincheonji God's Word] The Words in the Bible the Saints Must Perceive, Believe, and Keep

The Words in the Bible the Saints Must

Perceive, Believe, and Keep

Main reference: Hos 4:6

One becomes destroyed if he lacks the word of God, the knowledge of the Bible.

The content of the 66 books (39 books in the Old Testament and 27 books in the New Testament) of the Bible (the Old and the New Testaments) can be categorized into four types: History, teachings (moral instructions), prophecy, and fulfillment.

The logical order of the events that occur in every era: The betrayal of the chosen people, the destruction by gentiles, and salvation through the promised pastor.

The logical order of creation and re-creation:
1. Selection of a pastor
2. Creation of a kingdom
3. Covenant with the chosen people
4. The betrayal of the covenant by the chosen people and destruction
5. Selection of a new pastor
6. Judgment and salvation
7. Creation of a new kingdom
8. New covenant

(The logical order can be seen in ten steps if the numbers 4 and 6 are divided into two parts each--number 4 can be divided into the betrayal of the covenant and destruction, and number 6 into judgment and salvation.)

Distinguishing of the eras during the 6,000 years of biblical history:
1. The era of Genesis
2. The era of the Exodus and the Law
3. The era of the Judges
4. The era of the Kings
5. The era of the Prophets
6. The era of the Gospel of Heaven
7. The era of the Epistles
8. The era of Revelation and Re-creation

Qualifications to enter into heaven: Six things which must be fulfilled in us are.
1. One must be born of the seed of God.
2. One must be harvested.
3. One must be sealed.
4. One must belong to the promised kingdom, the 12 tribes.
5. One must not add to and/or subtract from Revelation.
6. One's name must be recorded in the book of life.

Testimony according to the 5Ws and 1H: who, what, where, when, why, and how

Distinguishing of the pastors:  Pastors are categorized into three types.
1. The pastor of prophecy (Old Testament prophets)
2. The general pastor (a pastor who peaches the fulfillment)
3. The pastor of promise (the pastor promised before things are fulfilled)

These three types of pastors must exist. Among these three, the pastor of promise appears at an appointed time. At the appointed time, everyone must listen to the words of the pastor of the promise in order to attain salvation.

● The parables, the secrets from of old, and the testimony of the physical realities (prophecy and fulfillment)


Main references: Mt 13:34-35 (Gn 3:22; Mt 13:11-15)

· The world of Adam: Pastor and creation, covenant (Gn 2:17), betrayal of the covenant by the deception of the gentile, fulfillment of the covenant (Gn 3, Gn 7), judgment and destruction.

· The covenant with Abraham: Gn 15
☞ The fulfillment: The exodus and the entry to Canaan

· The prophecy in the Old Testament: Is 14:24
☞ The fulfillment: “It is finished” in Jn 19:30.

· The prophecy of Revelation in the New Testament: Rv 1:1
☞ The fulfillment: “It is done” in Rv 21:6.

When books of prophecy are testified, both the pastor of prophecy and the pastor of fulfillment need to be testified about. The fulfillment should be testified according to its prophecy as well as to the 5Ws and 1H.

In regard to the fulfillment of the books of prophecy, there is a fulfillment of the Old Testament, and there is a fulfillment of the New Testament. The Old Testament was fulfilled at the time of the first coming, and the New Testament has been fulfilled at the time of the second coming. A promise was given so people will believe when the foretold prophecy comes to pass (Jn 14:29).

Now is the time of the testimony of the fulfillment of the New Testament. At a time like this, causing problems with trivial matters is a trick of Satan. We must realize it is the devil's play which takes our time away and confuses our minds. Let us keep our promise and attain our hope.

★ Shincheonji is neither the corrupt Christian Council of Korea which is tainted with money, nor is it the people of Canaan who entered Sabbath-rest. We are the leading characters for the work of the new creation.

[Peace Advocate Man Hee Lee] : Open Bible Seminar in the Philippines - Fulfillment of the East, travels to the South

Open Bible Seminar in the Philippines

“If this word spread, people’s thoughts and their acts will be change.” “I realized that God’s wish is to make peace by making all people into one.” “If this word is preached, peace will come to this country.” - Parts of pastors’ testifies in the Philippines  

Wherever World Peace Leader, Chairman Man Hee Lee, preached the word of fulfillments and peace messages, a magnificent sight that people gathered like clouds appeared. Pastors and Christians that saw this spectacle sight were so amazed.


Fulfillment of the East, Travels to the South

Wednesday, June 12, 2013 – Thursday, June 18, 2013 in the Philippines


Chairman Man Hee Lee and Hee delegation chose the Philippines to notify the solution of world peace for this visiting. They received a passionate welcome from the local pastors and the young. Also, the press in the Philippines showed high interest to a peace activist, Chairman Lee, as soon as they heard that he arrived at the capital of the Philippines, Manila. About 30 main presses attended the conference asking a lot of questions. Chairman Lee took part in live broadcast and introduced the meaning and acts of world peace and the restoration of light. Major press media in the Philippines reported work of Chairman Lee for peace day in.

 Open Bible Seminar, thousands of people gathered – local pastors “Amazing”

  Staying in the Philippines, it was the Open Bible Seminar that it took all interest of residents. Four Seminars were held, and about 5,000 people attended. The first day of Open Bible Seminar, Chairman Lee testified the whole contents of Bible connecting the Old Testament and the New Testament and showed a passionate figure to help listener’s understanding. Pastors were impressed about these points that Chairman Lee testified and showed. Also, they never have listened to this kind of word that is about the fulfillments of the New Testament before, so they were surprised and glad to listen to this word.

Pastors who attended this seminar wanted to listen more about the word of fulfillment, so they invited Chairman Lee to hold another conference. They voluntarily ask Chairman Lee to hold the convocation of Revelation, and about 100 pastors came to listen to the word of Revelation.  After the convocation, they had a question and answer session at dinner time.

“Thank you for delivering the light to the Philippines sincerely.”
  One of pastors expressed his gratitude. Also, pastors who visited Chairman Lee’s seminar said if they have a chance to learn this word, they will learn this word, and they would gather more pastors to learn this word.
    Wherever Chairman Lee goes, the work of Holy Spirit appears. People were happy to meet this Peace Advocate, Chairman Lee, and they could learn the source of the world peace to make world more beautiful than before.

The real material of World Peace is the word of God that is about the fulfillments of the prophecies in the Bible. Shincheonji has the fulfillments of the Bible that no one has ever heard it before, and world will be healed by this word of fulfillment. The world gladded to listen to the word of fulfillment and light, and they already acknowledged this word of God.

 There must be a reason why people wanted to hear this word. Come and listen to the word of God, word of fulfillment, then, you can find the reason why people wanted it.

[Shincheonji God's Word] God’s messengers and the pastors of each generation

Main reference: Acts 7:51-60
Who persecuted and murdered God’s prophets, Jesus, and his disciples? How will the situation be different at the time of Revelation’s fulfillment?
In each and every generation, God chose and sent his messengers to his people to speak on his behalf. Unfortunately, the pastors and elders of each generation persecuted and murdered God’s prophets. They carried out this wicked work of persecution because they themselves had become corrupt—because they belonged to the devil. The scriptures testify about how this work of persecution was carried out in the time of the Old Testament, how it was carried out in the time of the New Testament, and how it is carried out at the time of Revelation’s fulfillment. Just as God’s prophets, his chosen pastors, and his apostles were tormented in the past, they are still being persecuted today (Mt 23:34-35; Lk 11:47-51; Acts 7:51-53; Rv 11). Who was it that Jesus fought against in the four gospels? Who was it that persecuted and even crucified him? Who was it that Jesus’ disciples fought against, and by whom were they murdered? The adversaries of Jesus and his disciples were the elders and pastors of that generation (Mt 15:1-6). No one can deny that it was the elders and pastors of that time who persecuted and killed Jesus and his disciples (Mt 27; Jn 19:21-30; Acts 7:51-60).
What about the two witnesses who stand before the Lord in Rv 11? What about the people in the tabernacle? Who killed them?
Just like at the time of the first coming, the two witnesses and the people in the tabernacle were persecuted and killed by false pastors who have united with the beast, the devil. Those who have read and perceived the truth in the Old and New Testaments will agree that this testimony is true. In the four gospels, Jesus promised to send us a messenger to speak on his behalf (Mt 23:39; Rv 22:16). In addition, Jesus prophesied that this promised messenger will testify about all the chapters of Revelation when he comes. This messenger, as a matter of fact, is the one who sees and hears all the events of the chapters of Revelation and who receives and delivers Jesus’ commands (Rv 1:2; Rv 10). Today, however, all nations have gone astray because of the figurative nation of Babylon and the pastors who belong to Satan. People have married the devil (Rv 17; Rv 18). The scriptures describe how these pastors and their congregation members have become intoxicated with the wine of adultery, which symbolizes the false teachings of the devil (Rv 17:1-5). Using different metaphors, the seed of weeds has been sown in the hearts of these people, and the venom of serpents has filled their entire bodies.
Today, the messenger Jesus promised has fought and overcome using the truth (Rv 12:7-11) by testifying about the events of Revelation according to what he saw and heard. He had to uproot the seed of weeds from their hearts before sowing again with God’s seed. He had to destroy the house the devil had made before re-building God’s house in their hearts. In other words, Jesus’ messenger had to help people be born again (Jer 1:10). He had to fight against Satan using the truth (Rv 17:14) to deliver God’s saints from the organization of Satan (Rv 18:1-4). Because he overcame, the messenger of Jesus is able to receive the blessings promised in Rv 2 and Rv 3.
All believers and pastors in this generation must understand the Bible and repent. They must ask, seek, and knock for the messenger whom Jesus our Lord promised in the New Testament (Mt 7:7-8; Rv 3:20).
No one in this world was able to understand Revelation because it was awaiting its fulfillment at the time of the second coming. No one was able to know it until the events of Revelation’s fulfillment appeared—until God opened it and showed it to us. Now, the time of the physical fulfillment of Revelation has come (Jn 16:25)! God has fulfilled the prophecies of Revelation and has shown their physical fulfillment to the one who overcomes. He has opened the scroll and has given it to the one who overcomes to eat. God commands that the one who overcomes should testify to the churches what he has seen and heard (Rv 10), and the one who overcomes is doing so accordingly.
The book of Revelation is the revelation of Jesus Christ (Rv 1:1). The testimony of Jesus is the testimony about the events that occurred in the location of Revelation’s fulfillment (Rv 1:2). Let us cast away our wicked hearts and step forward with good and noble hearts before Jesus. It is only when we receive the revelation and the testimony of Jesus Christ that we can acquire salvation (Mt 11:27). The testimony regarding the three entities of Revelation—the seven stars who betray (Rv 1:19-20; Rv 2; Rv 3; Rv 6), the beast who destroys (Rv 13; Rv 17), and the overcomer who saves by creating the twelve tribes of New Spiritual Israel (Rv 12; Rv 7)—is being clearly proclaimed by Shincheonji.
Among all the nations of the world, it is only Shincheonji  Church of Jesus that has been created according to Jesus’ commands. It is only Shincheonji Church of Jesus that has been testifying about what has been revealed by Jesus. Today’s believers do not have God’s word in their hearts because their pastors do not have the word to teach them. Today’s pastors do not have the word in their hearts because their seminaries do not have the word. The seminaries do not have the word because they do not have the holy spirit that is the source of God’s word.
Unlike all the seminaries of the world, Shincheonji does has the word and the physical fulfillment of the word because God, Jesus, and the holy spirit of truth are with us (Rv 3:12; Rv 21). If you are trying to draw water from a dried up spring, no matter how hard you try or how long you wait you will never be able to drink water. The thirsty people of the world should come and find the spring where the living water flows. All the waterless springs of the world should stop desperately trying to keep believers for themselves (Mt 23:13). Instead, they should send their congregation members to the spring that is flowing with living water. If the pastors and believers of this generation continue refusing to repent, they will not be saved. This is the truth from the Lord. Pastors and believers who truly understand heaven and hell will repent.
Today, Sshincheonji is growing rapidly because we have God, God’s word, and the physical fulfillment of God’s word with us.

In Matthew 25, Jesus said that those who do not prepare the lamp and oil cannot receive the bridegroom Jesus, and they will be left outside the wedding banquet. Is Jesus referring to a literal lamp and oil? Or are they metaphors? According to the Scriptures “I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter hidden things, things from of old,” (Ps 78:2), Jesus “did not say anything to them without using a parable” (Mt 13:34-35).
What does the lamp and oil symbolise? Jesus told this parable using the ancient Israelite wedding banquet custom. In those days, the Israelites held their wedding banquets at night. Each bridesmaid would carry a lamp to receive the bridegroom and lead him into the house and into the room where the bride waits.
God said in Jeremiah 31, “… I took them by the hand to lead them out of Egypt... they broke my covenant though I was a husband to them.” He also spoke in Hosea 2:19-20, “I will betroth you to me forever.” In the same manner, Jesus has said that he will come in the position of a bridegroom. Like the Israelites that came out of Egypt, we too have become the brides. Why is Jesus expressed as the groom and we as the brides? Jesus is spirit and we are flesh, the house for the spirit. We become one with the Lord by embracing the Lord in our hearts. This is a spiritual marriage. In this sense, the metaphor of the bridegroom and brides is used. This can also be found in Apostle Paul’s letter when he stated, “I promised you to one husband, to Christ, so that I might present you as a pure virgin to him” (2 Cor 11:2).
In order to partake in this spiritual wedding banquet and to receive the Lord, one must prepare the lamp and the oil. In Moses and Aaron's case, Aaron used olive oil to light up the lamps in the tabernacle (Lv 24). In Zechariah 4, two olive trees and seven lamps appear. The seven lamps were the seven spirits before the throne (Rv 4). The two olive trees beside the lampstand, symbolises the pastors who served the Lord (Zec 4:14). In Revelation 11, the two witnesses who stand before the Lord are likened to two olive trees. Thus, spiritual 'oil’ symbolises the word of testimony that comes out through the mouths of the two witnesses. They have seen and heard the fulfilment of the prophecies of the entire Revelation and this is testified just as they were commanded. This very word of testimony is the oil of the Holy Spirit of the Lord.
What is the lamp? Just as Jesus is the light (Jn 12:46) and the Word (1 Jn 1:1), the spiritual lamp is Jesus’ word of promise, that is, the Bible. [Since the witnesses, likened onto olive trees, know the word (prophecies) of the Bible that was hidden through the parables and its physical fulfilments, the word of the Holy Spirit, which testifies about the physical realities that have been fulfilled is the oil, which lights up the Bible]. The main reference (Mt 25) mentions those who sell the oil, which refers to the olive trees i.e. the witnesses. Only those who receive the revealed word from these witnesses, the olive trees, and gain the understanding are able to receive the returning Lord.
At the time of the First Coming, the Jews failed to receive their God as their groom despite having the Old Testament (prophecies). This was due to their lack of understanding of the words of the promise. Likewise today, if one does not know the returning path of the Lord and the promised pastor, they will be unable to recognise God, the Holy City of New Jerusalem coming down from heaven, and Jesus when they come and only become persecutors. Without the proper teaching, the pastors of each denomination will be held responsible for their members’ ignorance. The Bible even promises after which events and to whom heaven, God and Jesus would come (Rv 3:12).
The word of the New Testament is the path, the lamp and the light the Lord uses to return. The oil of the Holy Spirit is the revealed word, which is the evidence of the fulfilment of Revelation. Being part of the fulfilment (the physical realities and entities) transpires as, being reborn in a new image as the new covenant is fulfilled in you. The eligibility of receiving the Lord at the wedding banquet is preparing the lamp and the oil, and acting in accordance to the prophecy and its physical fulfilment. The five qualifications include:  being harvested, being sealed, becoming a part of the twelve tribes, not adding to and/or taking away from Revelation, and having your name recorded in the book of life. This is the new covenant that believers must keep. God made it known to us that we will be able to reign eternally as kings, as His Kingdom (heaven) and his priests, if we obtain the five qualifications. These are the marriage qualifications to receive the Lord, and serve as a sign that the lamp and oil has been prepared. If one’s lamp shines no light due to a lack of oil, this means their heart has turned dark from not knowing the Bible's prophecy and its physical fulfilment and signifies the deficiency of their faith. How can such person receive the Lord if their position is like that of a non-believer? Like the sun, moon, and stars of the sky have darkened and fallen to the ground, they have returned to being mere flesh, despite having begun their faith with the Holy Spirit. Although this is the reality, they do not realise that they are in this situation and therefore they are in the night.
In 1 Thessalonians 5 there are those who are asleep at night and urged them to awake. Those who do not have the light will get destroyed, but those who become like the light of the day will attain salvation.
Today, at the time of the Second Coming, anyone involved in the acts of persecution and cursing is a pastor of Satan. Such actions serve as the evidence that they are a part of Satan’s people. It is only those who believe and keep the word of promise whom will attain salvation. I pray for all to believe and be saved.
Amen!

[Shincheonji] The Lecture; Man Hee Lee from the Europe Open Bible Seminar

Due to popular request, the content the lecture from the Europe Open Bible Seminar is presented.

[Purpose of visiting Europe]
Greetings, brothers and sisters in Europe, it is 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 deeply rooted 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 (Mt 23). 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 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 13, Two Types of Seed 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 harvest is the end of the age.” Then, what does it 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 seed s were sown comes to an end. It is because it is the time of harvest.

[Shincheonji God's Word] The Purpose of the Cross

What a great time to reflect on the purpose of the cross. Why is it that Jesus had to bear the cross? Why did God allow the blood of His son to be shed? What is expected of us today?


2000 years ago Jesus shed his blood to atone for man’s sin (Heb 10:10-14). Through the sacrifice of one man the sins of many were taken away. This took place at the time of the first coming, but what does the rest of Hebrews 9:28 say concerning Jesus’ return?


“Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many;
and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.”


When does salvation come? When can we truly claim to ‘be saved’?


2000 years ago Jesus shed his blood to atone for our sins so that today we can be made into the perfect and holy kingdom and priests of God, those who have been purchased by Jesus’ blood and sealed with the seal of the living God (Rv 5:9-10; Rv 7:2-4).


The 144,000 who have been sealed and born of God’s seed, the word of truth (Rv 7:4; James 1:18), are those who can sing the new song (Rv 14:3).


If you don’t know what the ‘new song’ is, can you sing it?


Those who are singing the new song, the 144,000,  are gathered at Mount Zion, together with God and Jesus (Rv 14:1).


Today is the time when we can learn the new song!
 Today we must be those who are harvested and sealed according to the prophecies in the New Testament (Mt 13: 24-30; Rv 14:14-16; Rv 7:2-4).


What was God’s hope and desire as He allowed the blood of His son to be shed?


God desires to create His eternal kingdom here on earth, as it is in heaven, His holy nation and treasured possession, His kingdom of priests (Ex 19:5-6), those who have been purchased with the blood of  Jesus.


Today is the time when Jesus’ blood comes into full effect. Today is the time we can truly receive salvation.


Have you been purchased? Have you been harvested and sealed? Can you sing the new song?


Now is the time! Let us not be like those living at the time of Noah, who lost the opportunity of salvation by not getting on the Ark because they did not recognize or understand the time they were living in.


Let us be those who fulfill God’s hope!

[Shincheonji Bible QT] Love, Seek and Find

Let us be those who truly seek, those who are only satisfied with the truth, and those who are acknowledged by God. Now is the time to understand all the promises and prophecies recorded in the New Testament, let us be those who have open and humble hearts, so that we can hear, believe, and understand.
These things we pray for all mankind

[Shincheonji God's Word] Two Covenants

Main reference : Heb 8, 9

God said to the Hebrews (Israelite people) who came out of Egypt, through Moses, “If you keep my covenant, then out of all nations you will be my treasured possession. Although the whole earth is mine, you will be for me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.” (Ex 19:5-6). But they neither trusted in God, nor obeyed him by the Jordan River. (Ex 32, Dt 9:11-24, Heb 3)
So God said in Jeremiah 31, he would make a new covenant because they broke the first covenant (Jer 31:31-32, Heb 8:7-13), and made the new covenant in the blood of Jesus after about 600 years. (refer to Mt.26:26-29, Lk 22:14-20, Heb 9:13-15)  This new covenant is the New Testament, which main point is the promise of Revelation. Those who keep this covenant will be forgiven for their sins and become a kingdom of God and priests, and a holy nation, that is, the people of Heaven (Rv 1:5-6, Heb 9:24-28).

They were the covenant through Moses, and the New Covenant through Jesus. Today, those who keep the New Covenant will be blessed as promised. What we should trust and obey are the word of promise (prophecy) and its fulfillment in the New Testament.

The affairs in the past (at the time of Moses) are the examples then, and what appear in the mirror are their faces (appearances). Today, we look in the mirror glass, which is far more transparent like pure gold. (Rv 21:21) As this mirror is the everlasting word like gold, everyone will be judged according to his deed as recorded in the Bible. (Rv 20:12)
