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!

Writen by Man Hee Lee shincheonji, The Prophecy Promised In the New Testament & the Testimony of Fulfillment

The Prophecy Promised

In the New Testament

& the Testimony of Fulfillment

 

Shincheonji, Tabernacle of Testimony (abbreviated as Shincheonji) is God's Kingdom and the temple of the New Testament (Rev.15:4-5, 21:1-7).

Shincheonji won the battle against the pastor of dragon with the blood (word) of Jesus and testimony (Rev.12). Because of this victory, the promises in Rev. 2&3 were given and 12 tribes of the new spiritual Israelites were established (Rev.7).
Shincheonji is proclaiming everything that it has seen and heard according to Revelation and announcing it to all the nations, peoples, languages and kings (Rev. 10) Just as the Jesus' first coming, no one knows the true God, except for the ones who received the word of revelation, Jesus and the one sent by Jesus and angels (Mt. 11:27).

According to what was commanded by Jesus, Shincheonji goes to the field (church) sown by Jesus and harvest good seeds with the angels and delivers them to Mt. Zion where God dwells (Rev. 14). Jesus said those who are left at the field, that they are weeds, sons of Satan (Mt.13:30, 38-39).  Also, the ones who keep them from being harvested are the pastors of Satan, similar to the Pharisees (Mt.23).
Judge us according to the words of the Scriptures. How come you do not believe the promise?

The war of the New Testament refers to the war between God's kingdom and Satan’s kingdom, between denominations, just as the first coming. It is not a physical war. Those who claim that it is a world war are the false pastors. Would you receive salvation following these false pastor? Lies are the seed of Satan and the wine of adulteries. The 'Dubious Secret of Shincheonji' reported by MBC PD Note was a false coverage, which was based on the false reports by false pastors.

Not receiving the revelation of the New Testament (the new song) and not being part of the 12 tribes of the promised kingdom, you cannot become a man of heaven, and there is no salvation (Rev. 14). The place where all the nations should go and worship is the Tabernacle of Testimony where God's throne is (Rev.3:12,21, Rev.14 &15). Will there be salvation if you deny this fact? Those who admit their sins belong to God, and those who deny them belong to the world (Satan).

The promised pastor of the New Testament is the one who received the revealed words in Rev.10, and the Tabernacle of Testimony with the one who overcame is the promised temple of Rev. 15. The promised kingdom is Shincheonji Church of Jesus where the 12 tribes are as Rev. 12. These are fulfilled and created according to the New Testament.
Those who cannot accept this fact are from the same affiliation as the Pharisees, the serpent (Mt.23:33). Why not believe the words of promise of the bible? Let us believe it and receive salvation.

Who is the God of KCC? Jesus said “for those who drink his blood and eat his flesh, there is salvation, which should be looked for in his name.” But Mr. Shin who staged a coup and walked out of Shinchonji insisted that “there is salvation only by eating the blood and flesh of Man-Hee Lee, the president of Shincheonji, and we should pray in his name.”
An affiliated denomination of KCC appointed Mr. Shin as a preacher and is letting him preach false testimonies by hosting seminars all over the country. Unless they belong to the same God, how are they able to walk down the same path?

Members of Heaven and Earth! As the fulfillment of the New Testament has been testified, you would have no excuse saying that you did not hear (Jn.15:22) Anyone who verifies and believes in it as true people of faith, will enter heaven and eternal life.

Amen!

[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.

[Shinchonij God's Word] Have you been harvested?

All things about God and heaven can be answered through God’s word, since God and his word are never separate (Jn 1:1).
 Let’s look at what scripture says about each simple question.


Have you been harvested?
In Matthew 13 Jesus tells the Parable of the Weeds:

24 Jesus told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. 25 But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away. 26 When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also appeared.
27 “The owner’s servants came to him and said, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?’
28 “‘An enemy did this,’ he replied.
“The servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and pull them up?’
 
29 “‘No,’ he answered, ‘because while you are pulling the weeds, you may uproot the wheat with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.’”
 


95th graduation ceremony of John tribe held on 24th June 2012.
 

second coming, the “end of the age” (Mt 13:39).
At the time of the first coming Jesus was the good man who sowed the seed of the kingdom of heaven in his field, the field of Christianity. But there comes a time when the seed that has been growing in Jesus’ fields needs to be harvested.
It tells us that at the end of the age Jesus will come with his angels and harvest the good grain, the wheat, from the field – those who have been born of the word of God (Mt 13:39; Mt 24:30-31). They do not remain in the field; instead they are harvested and taken to the barn.

parable of the weeds Shinchonji
 
So, what then are the weeds?

The weeds represent those that are born of the lies of Satan (the seed of the devil), and are therefore “sons of the evil one” (Mt 13:25 & 38). They are not born of the word of truth, they are not God’s children (James 1:18).
Even though for many years the two seeds grow together and are perhaps indistinguishable between the two for a while, it becomes very clear who truly belongs to God (wheat) and who actually belongs to the evil one (weeds) at the time of the harvest.
Those that are harvested are the good grains, those that remain in the field are the weeds, born of lies, and ultimately end up being burned (Mt 13:30 & 40).
If we are those who claim to belong to God, then we have to be those who are harvested. If we claim to be harvested, then we have to be those who know where and what the barn is (Mt 13:30).
Mt 24:15-16 is also a prophecy concerning the second coming. We have to be those who flee to the mountains, not those who stay in the temple when we see the abomination standing in the holy place. This is the same situation as being harvested out of the field in Mt 13.


Man Hee Lee, Chairman of Shinchonji

Where are God’s firstfruits gathered today, at the time of Revelation’s fulfillment? Rv 14:1-4 tells us that those who belong to God and Jesus are gathered at Mt Zion, God’s dwelling place (Ps 43:3; Is 2:2). They have come out of Babylon (Rv 18:4), and have gathered before God’s throne at Mt Zion. These are the good grains that have been harvested and taken to the barn (Mt Zion).
If we claim to be those who are harvested and those who truly belong to God, then we have to know where and what Mt Zion is. If we stay in the same place and never ‘flee’ then we prove ourselves to be those who have chosen to stay in the holy place with the abomination. Those that remain in the field and refused to be harvested prove themselves to be the weeds.The wheat Shinchonji.

Today, at the time of Revelation’s fulfillment, the harvest is taking place (Rv 14:14-16). God is with the promised pastor, whom he has sent, and that promised pastor is at Shinchonji, Church of Jesus – the Temple Tabernacle of the Testimony. He is testifying to the truth of Revelations fulfillment! Have you heard? Can you judge it according to the words Jesus promised us? And are you following the word of God to his holy mountain?
Today is the time of harvest… Do not remain in the field!!




Have you been harvested?

[Shinchonji God's Word] God and the Chosen Pastor

The text:  Jn 16:8-15

In every generation, there was a pastor who was chosen by God. In the New Testament, who, when, and where is the promised pastor?

God chose Moses and through him He fulfilled what was promised to Abraham. What God fulfilled through Moses, was previously spoken to His people, the Israelites, before it was fulfilled. Furthermore, Jesus was chosen (Lk 9:35) to fulfill the prophecies and testify what was previously spoken through the Old Testament prophets.  

The prophecies of the New Testament were prophesied through Jesus and His disciples. At the time of the second coming, one pastor (the one who overcomes) is chosen, shown the events of the fulfillment and told to testify what was seen and heard to the world.

In each of the different generations, there are pastors of prophecy who speak of the future, but there is also a pastor who testifies to what was seen and heard. The second of these two is the promised pastor, whom God has chosen.

Prophecies are told in advance, so that the fulfillment can be believed in at the time they are seen and fulfilled (Jn 14:29). The prophecies of the New Testament (gospel of the kingdom of heaven) that will be fulfilled, is made known to the whole world as a testimony to all nations (Mt 24:14). When the gospel of the kingdom of heaven is spread to all nations, then the end will come, the Lord will return and fulfill the promised prophecies (Mt 24:29-31).

At this time, the Lord chooses the witness who saw and heard the events of fulfillment, from the location in which they were fulfilled. He is then commanded to make this information known to the churches. The congregation members, who have heard the testimony concerning the fulfilled prophecies, must examine whether the prophecies were fulfilled according to the promises of the scriptures. They must then believe in this reality, and become those who testify about them together.     
 
All believers today have the Bible, and within the content of the scriptures, history, moral instructions (teachings), prophecies and fulfillment are recorded. The people, who live at the time of the New Testament, believe that the New Testament prophecies will be fulfilled in the future. They all gather their hands in prayer, waiting for that day. Since God has always fulfilled His promises, (Is 14:24, Hab 2:2-3), one can certainly believe God will also fulfill the New Testament promises.

However, there is no one who knows regarding when, or where this fulfillment will occur. Nor do they know who will see these events of fulfillment, and testify to them. Not only this, but the meaning of the New Testament, which was recorded in parables, is even harder to understand (Mt 13:34-35, Jn 16:25). Also, no one actually knows how big these events truly are.

The purpose of God’s 6,000 years of biblical history is recorded in the New Testament. It is recorded that a new world will be created (Rv 7, 14, 21, 22). When the New Testament is fulfilled, God’s new kingdom is created, and we become the people of heaven in this new kingdom. By receiving salvation, we are receiving the greatest and highest blessings given in 6,000 years. We must ask ourselves, since we will be dwelling with God and receive heaven and eternal life, is there a bigger blessing than this out there? 

However, it is recorded in scriptures regarding this era, ‘will there be any faith on this earth’ (Lk 18:8). As a result of betrayal and destruction, which has taken over this world, there will be an increase in wickedness (Mt 24). At a time like this, there must be one who fights and win these lawless men for there to be salvation, and for the promised kingdom of God to stand (Rv 12:10-11). Let us believe in this truth and be those who inherit salvation.

We must find the promised pastor spoken of in the Bible and become the people of heaven. The promised kingdom, New Heaven and New Earth “Shinchonji”, is the promised kingdom in the New Testament, and is fulfilled today, according to the promises of the Bible. Those who believe in this are those born of God’s seed. Those who do not believe and persecute this are those born of Satan’s seed.

Shinchonji people are of heaven, they have been harvested and sealed according to the promises in the Bible. They are reborn as new creations. Not believing in this truth is evidence of being born of Satan’s seed. Just because someone is a pastor, it does not make him or her God’s pastor. And just because someone calls himself or herself a believer, it does not automatically make them people of God. We must ask, if one considers themselves a person of God, is there any reason to refuse being harvested and sealed?

The firstfruits harvested in Revelation 14, are the fruits from the seed (gospel of the kingdom) Jesus planted 2,000 years ago. This was done in accordance to the fulfillment of prophecies (Mt 13:24-30). The seed Jesus planted at the first coming, is the fulfillment of the prophecies given in Jeremiah 31:27, and the two seeds Jesus and the devil sowed were planted together in Jesus’ field (churches).

At the time of harvest, it is only the ripened wheat, from the good seed planted by Jesus, who are harvested and taken in front of the throne where God dwells. The ripened fruit born of the good seed are the sons of heaven. Those not harvested at the time of harvest, but are left remaining in the field (churches), are the sons of the evil one born of Satan’s seed (Mt 13:37-40). The actions of all those refusing to believe the fulfillment of God’s promises, testify they are not born of God’s seed.

We at Shinchonji overcame (we overcame Satan and the world with Truth and the word of testimony), have been harvested, sealed, and have created God’s kingdom the 12 tribes. Additionally, Shinchonji is where heaven and the earth became one (Mt 6:10, Rv21), the place of salvation for the entire world. Those who believe in the New Testament will come to Shinchonji. This is the place recorded in the Scriptures; this is the place of the fulfillment of God’s will. Amen!

[Shinchonji God's Word] The True Path and Teacher of Faith

Where is the true path to faith, and who is the true teacher of faith?

There is only one God, one Bible, one hope, and one place to go. The world, however, has ripped apart one religion into hundreds and thousands of different paths, and there are now hundreds of thousands of different denominations and pastors. In the midst of all this, where must one go, and whose commands must one follow in order to find the true path and the true teacher of faith? No matter which direction one looks, it is dark, formless and empty. There is not one person who knows the meaning of the Bible or knows the true God. If there is only one destination that God has chosen in the Bible, then isn’t every other place a fake, a cult, and an organization based on man’s own thinking and will?
 
The path to heaven that God has shown us is the Holy Scriptures, and the true teacher that we must follow is also the Holy Scriptures. This teacher and this path are the only true ones. How can one be called a believer if he does not follow this teacher and path but instead follows a flesh and what the flesh says? The lives that the flesh (man) leads result in straying far from the true word and teacher (i.e. the word) and in making their own paths onto which they lead others. Then they claim that their teachings are orthodox. In a world like this, would the laws made by these self-proclaimed Gods allow the revelation, that is, the true path of God, to be testified (2 Thes 2:4, 9-12)? Jesus said that no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him, and that knowing God is eternal life (Mt 11:27; Jn 17:3). The world today has met the promised era of harvest (the end of the age) (Mt 13:39-40), but as the revelation and the work of the Holy Spirit has been stopped (in the world of believers), no one knows this. This is why each church practices their faith out of habit and their own thinking. It has become night where there is no light of truth (Jn 9:4; Lk 18:8; 1 Thes 5:1-3). The spiritual sun, moon and stars have darkened and fallen from the sky (Rv 6:12-14; Mt 24:29), and the life of faith that started in the Spirit has returned to the flesh (Gal 3:3).
 

After 2,000 years of night since Jesus gave his promise, that promise is finally fulfilled as prophesied. Just as how the promised revelation came to Apostle Paul (Gal 1:11-12), how it came to Apostle John (Rv 1:1-3), and how it came to Jesus at the First Coming (Mt 11:27), the promised revelation has come to us in this night as the true light. This revelation is passed on from God’s hand to Jesus (Rv 5:1-7), from Jesus’ hand to the angel (Rv 10:1-2), from the angel’s hand to the promised pastor, the one who overcomes (Rv 10:8-11), and is finally passed on from the promised pastor to the promised servants, the 144,000 of the twelve tribes, and to the great multitude in white robes, as life and the light (Rv 1:1-2; 10:1-11). This is the long-awaited rain in the drought. This is the promised word of God, but will one believe it? I ask this to those who have let go of God and his word and instead are believing and following the flesh of man (pastor).
This is the final and last revelation, and without believing this, there is no salvation. This revelation has come to Shinchonji Church of Jesus today. I advise you to come out of the darkness, into the light, believe, and be saved (1 Thes 5:1-9).

[shinchonji god's word] The Pastor of Truth and of Lies

Main reference: Jn17:17, Jn1:1-5, Jn8:44
 
What is the meaning of truth and lies?
Truth means logic and a lie is when it does not accord with logic. Truth is the word of God, and a lie is the word of evil. The truth is the seed of life that belongs to God, and lies are the seed of death that belongs to the devil.
 
Truth is from God, and lies are from the devil. Depending on whether the word of a preacher is of truth or not, he or she is classified as either God's pastor or Satan's pastor. On a superficial level, both of them might look the same, seeming like God's pastors. However, Satan's pastors pretend to be God's pastors, dressed in sheep’s clothing, and they are guided by the evil spirit dwelling in them.
 
As an example, let's have a look at the chief priests (pastors), the elders and the congregation at the time of Jesus' first coming. They were seemingly pastors, workers and the chosen people of God, but they were manipulated by the spirit of Satan living within them to persecute, murder and interrupt, as you may know.
 
The only way to discern these two kinds is with the holy bible, since their acts can be revealed according to the bible. Therefore, Jesus said to 'repent' (Mt 4:17), and to 'be reborn of water and the spirit (holy spirit) (Jn3:5)'. Unless you're not reborn, you would be just the kingdom and people of Satan. Therefore, apostle Paul said 'as it is written, there is no one righteous, not even one' (Ps14:2-3, Ro3:10).
 
Similarly, even in today’s time you will not be able to find the truth nor orthodox away from the bible. Not being able to come to the public dispute requested by Shinchonji, why do they persecute, curse and engage in forced conversions and murders? Is that the commandment of Jesus? Is this orthodoxy? It is only an exertion of their ecclesiastical authority. They say there are almost 60 legal advisers of CCK (The Christian Counsel of Korea), and for what are these people needed? There are laws of the earth and laws of the heaven. The laws of the earth are a compendium of law, and the laws of heaven are the 66 books of holy bible. Even if it is not a violation of the law in this world that does not mean that they're innocent according to the laws of heaven.
 
The reason why pastors who insist on lies persecute the promised pastor who speaks the truth is because their testimonies are being proven to be false; their congregations leave them distrusting them.
 
God prophesied in the bible beforehand to let us know about the betrayer, the destroyer and the savior. When the three existences appear, each of them commits to what they are meant to do as written on the bible. A believer realizes who the betrayer, the destroyer and the savior are reflecting on their deeds based on the bible. Therefore, unless the believer know the bible properly, he or she would not be able recognize the betrayers from the chosen people, the gentile destroyers and the promised pastor, the savior.
 
If one has no interest in the bible, it is because he or she has no true faith as a purpose. If he or she did not have real concerns on the heaven and hell, or any interest in truth and untruth, their faith is not for the sake of a true wish. If one truly believed in the word of Jesus and kept the faith in heaven, he or she would have made efforts to know the real meaning of the word.
 
If the members of the city of truth, beautiful Shinchonji and all the believers around the world took a test about the bible, what would be the result like? If the members of Shinchonji got 90 points, all other congregations (with their pastors included) would not even get 20 points. As that is the fact, even if Jesus promised (prophesied) and fulfilled the promise, how could they figure it out and believe that? Since they taught lies and the commandments of men, how could they know the word of promise?  If they were told the truth, they would say 'what is truth?' To some renowned man, I told that he should know the true God, and he said 'God is just God. What is true God?', and accused the one who said 'the true God' as a heresy.
 
Therefore, a believer should be born of the word to know the true God (Jn17:3), to know the truth, and believe the promised covenant who became in flesh. It is a pity that many pastors in the world are preaching false testimonies and feeding their congregations notes that are made of lies. The liars, the pastors of lies should realize that they are the pastor of Satan in the bible, and seek for the truth to be reborn as true believers.
 
Jesus bore the cross and bled to save us from the sin. He let us know where the omens of the 2nd coming will appear in Mt. 24, Rev. 13 and 12.  Any pastor who teaches the war mentioned in those passages as the war of the world is a false pastor who makes up lies. The case of rapture and 666 barcode were all made up. The testimony of the one who saw and heard the war is the only truth.
 
Jesus told us about betrayers, destroyers and the promised pastor, the savior in the second coming (2Th2:1-4, Rev.6,12,13), and that he will return (Jn14:2-3).  The omens that would appear then are written in Mt.24 and in the book of Revelation. He told us about being destroyed and being saved. He spoke about the period of tribulations when the pastor of Satan goes in and trample over the church(Rev. 13:5), the mountain where the believers should escape to and hide themselves in (Mt. 24:15-16, Rev. 14:1-5), and the Kingdom of God and his new temple which is to be created in the second coming (Rev.7, Rev.21:1-7, 15:4-5).
 
I dearly pray that the believers follow God's word recorded in the bible and receive salvation.
 
Amen!

The Messenger Who Speaks On Behalf Is Sent Today

Main reference: Revelation 22:16-17

 
The messenger who speaks on behalf is the pastor who has seen and heard the events of the fulfillment of the entire book of Revelation at the location where they took place (Rev 22:16, Rev 1:1-3). 2,000 years ago Jesus promised, “what will soon take place” to apostle John, and today Jesus has come to the New John (the promised pastor) and fulfilled them.
Just as the Old Testament prophecies were fulfilled at one place, the temple of John the Baptist (Jerusalem) at the time of Jesus’ first coming, the prophecies of the New Testament and Revelation have been fulfilled at one place, the tabernacle of the seven stars (seven messengers) at the time of Jesus’ second coming, today. Because of this, many people on this earth could not see the events. Jesus has chosen the one who has seen and heard the fulfillment of the event, at the location where they took place, as the messenger who speaks on behalf of him, and told him to testify the fulfillment of Revelation to the churches according to what he has seen and heard.

Today, according to Revelation 1:1-3, all the churches of this earth must believe the word of this testimony to obtain salvation. The revelation of the gospel of the kingdom has been preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations for the last 2,000 years (Mt 24:14), and many saints of the earth are waiting for the fulfillment of the prophecies of the book of Revelation, so its fulfillment is being announced today.
Don’t be people like the time of Jesus’ first
coming who didn’t believe. I hope that you will verify according to Scripture and believe so you can be the saints who will attain salvation.

shinchonji - Truth and Lies

Truth and Lies

Truth comes from God and lies come from the devil (Jn 8:41-47).
A pastor from Shinchonji (SCJ) recently participated in a debate with a certain pastor of another church. This pastor’s identity will not be revealed to avoid embarrassing him. The pastor from SCJ had no idea what the topic of the debate would be prior to his arrival. Instead of talking about biblical explanations or testimonies, however, the other pastor brought only slanderous attacks to the discussion table. This was not a respectful discussion between pastors. The pastor from SCJ, therefore, suggested to put an end to the slanderous attacks and instead to talk only about the Bible. The pastor from SCJ asked the other pastor to answer a set of 40 questions about the Bible before continuing the debate. Furthermore, the pastor from SCJ pointed out that slandering others is a way of degrading oneself as a pastor. Instead of continuing the discussion by answering the 40 questions, the other pastor left. Later he posted an article on the Internet claiming to have won the debate against SCJ without even mentioning the 40 questions that he failed to answer.
Later on, that pastor also filed a legal complaint at the police station against the pastor of SCJ. When the pastor from SCJ met the other pastor at the police station, they both agreed to meet alone to settle their differences in private the following day. Breaking his promise, the pastor who had filed the complaint came the next day with two other followers. The pastor from SCJ placed a recorder on the table and asked, “Why did you announce that you won our debate without answering the 40 questions I gave you?” The SCJ pastor continued, “I will give you another chance. Please try to answer just 10 questions.” Five minutes had not even passed before the other pastor claimed to have an appointment he just could not miss. He left without answering a single question. Who do you think won the debate?
Lies cannot become the truth and the truth cannot become lies. Instead of lying in order to please men, we should speak the truth to please God (Gal 1:10). SCJ has received the revelation of heaven, which no one in heaven, on earth, or under the earth could know. Now, we are working diligently to testify the word of revelation according to God’s will and command (Rev 10). This is the appointed task God has given to SCJ. Only the one who receives the revelation can know the one true God (Mt 11:27). All believers can enter their hope of eternal life, by getting to know God and the one God has sent (Jn 17:3). Let us understand it, confirm‍ it, believe it, and truly become the people who attain salvation.

Shinchonji - The highest truth in the world

The highest truth in the world
 

God and Jesus are the word and the truth (Jn 17:17; Jn 1:1-4; 1 Jn 1:1). First, let's examine the culture of heaven and the eternal truth of God’s word in the Bible.

Before the time of Moses, God's truth was spread only by word of mouth. Finally, God decided to give Moses the law so he could write it down. God's ultimate purpose in giving the law of Moses, though, was that it might lead people to Jesus Christ (Gal 3:23-25). When Jesus came, he was also charged with delivering the word of God. Although Jesus preached the gospel of heaven at the time of the first coming, the meaning of many of the words he spoke (especially the prophecies) were hidden in parables (Mt 13:34-25; Mk 4:10-12). When the prophecies appear as a physical reality, Jesus' parables are finally revealed in plain language (Jn 16:25) by the holy Spirit of the Counselor, who comes in the name of the Lord (Mt 23:29; Jn 14:26).

The Counselor is the Spirit of Truth and the truth is the word of God (Jn 14:16-17; Jn 17:17). The Counselor is the spirit of God that testifies about the words of Jesus (Rv 19:10). How does this spirit testify Jesus? The Spirit of the Counselor dwells within a person and guides his heart and mouth. That person speaks only what he hears from Jesus (Jn 14:16-17; Jn 16:13-15). The Spirit of the Counselor does not speak figuratively like Jesus—he speaks plainly about God (Jn 16:25). If Jesus spoke figuratively, why does the Spirit of the Counselor speak plainly? When the Spirit of the Counselor comes he testifies about what he has seen and heard not about what will take place in the future. The figurative language hides the details of what will occur in the future. The Spirit of the Counselor must testify according what he has witnessed because it has already happened. The prophecies are evidence that his testimony is true.

When does the Spirit of the Counselor appear? The Spirit comes when the prophecies of the New Testaments are fulfilled at the time of Jesus’ second coming (Rv 1:1; Rv 10:1; Rv 19:10). That is why he testifies about Jesus and the physical fulfillment. At the time of the first coming, God opened the sealed scroll of the Old Testament (Is 29: 9-14; Hb 2:2-3; Ez 2-3), gave it to Jesus, and then spoke through him (Jn 14:24). In the same way, Jesus opens the book of Revelation, which is the sealed scroll of the New Testament (Rv 5:7; Rv 6), and gives it to his chosen pastor so that he can testify on Jesus' behalf (Rv 10). This promised pastor preaches according to what he has seen and heard and he carries out God's commands just as Moses and Jesus did (Jn 5:17-19).

When the sealed book of Revelation is revealed, it is the most important era of all the 6,000 years of biblical history. The word that is preached at that time—the testimony about the physical fulfillment of the prophecies—is the most precious word of all time. The prophecies of the New Testament have become flesh and appeared in the physical world. Revelation is being revealed to the world. Before, the truth was hidden in figurative language, but everything is revealed at the time of Revelation’s fulfillment because that is when God’s work is completed (Rv 21:6).

Corrupt spiritual leaders (pastors) have persecuted and killed God's messengers in every generation because the words those messengers spoke were different from the words the corrupt pastors were preaching (Mt 23:34-35; Jn 8). Although Shinchonji Church of Jesus is being persecuted today, our persecution is occurring in fulfillment of the words of the Bible. It is also happening so the members of Shinchonji will be rewarded by God (Mt 5:110-12). We are being persecuted because we have the highest truth in the world. Shinchonji is the only place that has mastered the Bible and the only place that testifies about the fulfillment of Revelation. Those who believe will be saved, but those who refuse to believe will not.

People must come out of the darkness (ignorance) into the light of God's word. Now is the time to understand that all nations have gone astray. They have become a part of Babylon, the kingdom of demons, according to prophecy (Rv 17; Rv 18). Those who flee spiritual death in Babylon to pursue spiritual life in Shinchonji will be saved. Shinchonji is the tree of life and God's people eat its fruit. Some may not be able to believe this, but that does not change the fact that there is only one God, one Jesus, one Bible, one Spirit of the Counselor, one holy city New Jerusalem (Rv 3:12; Rv 4; Rv 21:2), one promised pastor (Rv 10; Rv 22:16), and one place all nations must come to worship (Rv 15:4-5). The 12 tribes of Shinchonji are God's kingdom and his promised temple. Those who come and are sealed by the promised pastor at this promised place will become the citizens of heaven and they will be saved (Rv 21:1; Rv 7; Rv 14:1-5).
