[Shincheonji Truth] Judge Shincheonji & Man hee Lee for yourself

I grew up going to church and attending a Christian school K-12. During my years in university, I was greatly involved in campus ministry, even leading small Bible study groups.
In all my years attending a Christian school and listening to sermon after sermon, there were still a few things that didn’t make much sense and for which no one could supply a sufficient answer. It mostly came down to doctrinal or denominational differences (e.g. baptism, the trinity, the second coming and tribulations, etc.. and yes, about dinosaurs I must admit).
Once I was able to find the truth of the opened word of revelation, things started to slowly fall into place. In the center studies, we learn that once the lamp stand goes out, we are completely in darkness. And that’s the state I had been living all my years of being a devout Christian– in complete darkness. However, I didn’t realize it and was doing the best that I could with what I had  –  man-made doctrines and teachings.
Now that it is revealed that the one promised is here and he is the only who to whom God and Jesus come.. where else have I to go? I find that if I truly want to be with God and Jesus and posses eternal life, I must go to the place where they reside– Mount Zion, Shincheonji, New Heaven and New Earth, where the one who overcomes has established the 12 tribes of New Spiritual Israel.

Like the 12 disciples at Jesus’ time, we must be able to drop our nets, the only way of life we knew, and follow the one who is sent by God, the one who speaks the words of eternal life. What have we to lose? There is nothing greater worth living for and nothing more valuable than this truth. To anyone who truly desires to know God, His will and have eternal life, the very least you can do is listen to this word; then judge for yourself.

[Shincheonji God's Word] Having the eyes and heart to understand the Bible

Having the eyes and heart to understand the Bible

Adam was created by God (Gn 1:26-27; Gn 2:7). Noah was chosen by God (Gn 6:8-9). Abraham was chosen by God (Gn 12:1). Moses was chosen by God (Ex 3:4-10). Jesus, too, was chosen by God (Lk 9:35).
Apostle John, a servant at the time the prophecies are fulfilled, has been chosen by Jesus (Rv 1:17). If he keeps the covenant and overcomes according to prophecy, Apostle John sits with Jesus on his throne (Rv 3:21). Apostle John also becomes the son who inherits everything (Rv 21:7).
In the time of the Old Testament, Moses, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel and the rest of the prophets were held captive in enemy nations. In the time of the first coming, too, Jesus was in Jerusalem where God’s tabernacle had been taken over by Satan’s Pharisees (Mt 23:2; Mt 23:33). In the same way, at the time of the second coming—at the end of the age—the child who rules all nations is in the tabernacle of the chosen people that is invaded by the group of the dragon (Rv 12:1-5).
When Apostle John is mentioned in Revelation, it refers figuratively to the person who is used as a servant when the prophecies are fulfilled (Hos 12:10). This Apostle John figure is the promised pastor in the time of the second coming and he is the child that rules all nations. He is the pastor of Shincheonji who has been chosen by Jesus. He has not learned the teachings of the world, nor has he learned any of his knowledge of the Bible from other men. He, too, was once among God’s people while they were in captivity. He was chosen from among those people, and he mastered the Bible by learning from the Holy Spirit. By overcoming, he became New Spiritual Israel and established the promised twelve tribes (Rv 12:11; Rv 7; Rv 14). He has accomplished, according to the Bible, things no one else could ever have accomplished.
Those who deceived and killed Adam, even though he was righteous, were the same as those who persecuted and killed Jesus. They were all children of Satan. Today, too, people who persecute the pastor chosen by God and Jesus are the same as these children of Satan from long ago. Instead of allowing their jealousy and hatred to condemn them to hell, the pastors of the world and their congregation members should come learn, understand, and verify that we speak the truth. They should enter heaven and receive its blessing, which is salvation. We are with God and we speak the word of truth. If you see and still do not understand, what else can I say?
Even though people who walk on this narrow path are persecuted because of their righteousness, we have hope. We have life and the kingdom of heaven. God, Jesus, and his angels are with us. This place, which has mastered the Bible, is Mt. Zion (Ez 8:3; Rv 14:1; Rv 15:2-5). It is the city of truth whose people joyfully return glory to God. This place is heaven on earth—Shincheonji—to which the spiritual heaven descends (Rv 21:1-7).
No matter how many people deny it, and no matter how much they persecute the harvesters, today is the time of harvest (Mt 13:30) and those who are harvested are blessed. God harvests his people to Shincheonji, which is Mt. Zion (Rv 14:1-5; Rv 14:14-16). Since the days of the churches have come to an end, it is time for the wheat to be harvested. Those who remain in their churches instead of being harvested will continue to wait in hope, but their hopes will never be fulfilled.
Believing in words that are spoken according to the Bible is believing in God and his promises. I pray that you will see and understand the Bible with spiritual eyes so you can receive salvation.

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

Main reference : Rv 17-18

All nations have fallen and have become the possession of Satan, and maddening wine of adulteries comes out from the mouths of the pastors who have become Satan’s possession. At a time like this, where must the congregation members pray?

Because the Physical Israelites worshipped Gentile gods at the time of King Solomon, the 11 tribes in the North became the possession of the Gentiles and gave service in Samaria. One tribe in the South – the tribe of Judah—gave  service in Jerusalem. Even the one tribe of Judah (Jerusalem) in the South betrayed God and became the possession of Gentiles (Isaiah 1).

Furthermore at the time of Jesus’ First Coming, Israel was held captive by the Gentiles (Roman Empire). It was during this time Jesus came and spoke with a Samaritan woman. He said at this time, ‘it is not in Samaria, nor in Jerusalem, but when you pray go into your room’ (refer to Jn 4). Why did prayers and service have to be done in their rooms and not in the temples? God was searching for those who were praying in rooms. What is the reason for this? At that time, just like the words of Isaiah, Israel was captured by the Gentiles, and the pastors became Gentile pastors, offering service worshiping Gentile gods. This is because of the maddening wine of adultery; Satan’s words came out of the mouths of these pastors who became Gentile pastors.    

At the time when God and His son Jesus came, the actions of the pastors of that time were the actions of Satan, and the actions of an enemy.  Having service together with them is listening to the words of Satan, and worshipping Satan himself. Of the prayers that are lifted up, there are prayers the Lord does not accept or listen to according to the words of Isaiah chapter 1.

Today is the end of the age as a result of the corruption of the world of religion, and the end of the era Satan controlled. All nations fell as a result of the maddening wine of adulteries, and have married the spirit of Satan (Rv 17-18). Will God really receive prayers lifted up to Him from a place like this? Even today, it is the time to go into our rooms to pray just like at the time of the First Coming. 

At the time of Moses, God separated His people from the Gentiles, and the angels destroyed all the firstborns of the Egyptians. Also in Ezekiel chapter 9, a mark (seal) was placed on the foreheads of those who grieved and lamented over all the detestable things done in the city of Jerusalem. All those who did not have the mark were slaughtered. Even today, at a time when all nations have fallen, there are those who are sealed and those who are not. Those who are sealed will live, and foreigners (Gentiles) who are not sealed will be killed 1/3rd at a time (refer to Rv 8, 9).

Why is it that today, those who claim they are the most fervent believers do not believe in Jesus’ promises? Today there are the sealed people who are harvested, and the weeds that are not harvested. Of the two, whom will God save and whom will He throw out? Why do they not believe in the words of the Lord?  

The Christian Council of Korea (CCK) split into two (CCK and the Committee to Countermeasure Cults [CCC]). They are calling each other cults. Is this what you call orthodox? Are they believers who truly believe in the Lord? Is this what you call the light and salt of the world? Would God really dwell at a place like this?

Look at the 12 tribes at Mt. Zion who have been sealed and harvested. They are the Light created according to the New Testament promises God made. People at that time called Jesus, who came as the Light in the name of God, a heretic, and now there are those who call the pastor, who has united with the spirit of Truth who comes in the name of Jesus, a heretic. This is blasphemy against the Holy Spirit (refer to Mt 12:31).  Believers must discern for themselves which path is the road to salvation.

[Shincheonji meaning of the gospels] "Who am I" Praise by Casting Crowns

Still You hear me when I'm calling Lord, You catch me when I'm falling....

 

But God demonstrates His own lobe toward us,

in that while we were yet sinners, christ died for us. [Romans 5:8]

 

"Who am I"

Who am I, that the Lord of all the earth

Would care to know my name, Would care to feel my hurt

Who am I, that the Bright and Morning Star

Would choose to light the way For my ever wandering heart

 

Not because of who I am

But because of what You've done

Not because of what I've done But because of who You're

 

I am a flower quickly fading

Here today and gone tomorrow

A wave tossed in the ocean A vapor in the wind

 

Still You hear me when I'm calling Lord,

You catch me when I'm falling

And You've told me wh I am I am Yours,

I am Yours

 

Who Am I that the eyes that see my sin

would look on me with love and watch me rise again

Who Am I, that the voice that calmed the sea

Would call out through the rain And calm the storm in me

 

 

Not because of who I am

But because of what You've done

Not because of what I've done But because of who You're

 

I am a flower quickly fading

Here today and gone tomorrow

A wave tossed in the ocean A vapor in the wind

 

Still You hear me when I'm calling Lord,

You catch me when I'm falling

And You've told me wh I am I am Yours,

I am Yours

 

Not because of who I am

But because of what You've done

Not because of what I've done But because of who You're

 

Here today and gone tomorrow

A wave tossed in the ocean A vapor in the wind

 

Still You hear me when I'm calling Lord,

You catch me when I'm falling

And You've told me wh I am I am Yours,

I am Yours

 

I am Yours Whom shall I fear

Whom shall I fear 'Cause I am Yours,

I am Yours

"Who Am I" in the Bible?
 
 
There are many believers in the world who walk a life of faith. Most think that they will be saved if they believe in God and Jesus without knowing the promise of God, or who they are in the Bible. Let’s find out what God has promised us today and who I am in the Bible.  

1. The Physical Israel
God made a promise with Abraham in Genesis 15, and if we look in Genesis 17, it was an eternal promise which should have been believed in and kept by his descendents. The promise was that after suffering for 400 years in foreign land, the descendents of Abraham would bring abundant wealth out of Egypt and conquer and rule over the land of Canaan. As the time came, God brought out the people from Egypt through Moses as he promised (Ex 12), and God made a promise with the people again, that  “if you obey me fully and keep my covenant, then you will be for me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation” (Ex 19:5-6).

These people were ones who multiplied greatly and lived as slaves to Pharoah, the king of Egypt (Satan) (Ex 1, 3, 5). It was to the slaves God said that if they kept the promise they would be for Him a kingdom of priests and a holy nation. What was the covenant? It was that they would be God’s kingdom and priests, made righteous through faith, the people of the covenant what would be promised to live ruling over Canaan after multiplying greatly and coming out from Egypt.

However, just before entering into the land of Canaan, they did not believe and broke the covenant with God. God made them wander around for 40 years and left them to die in the desert (Nm 14:32-35, Heb 3). Afterwards, Joshua and the descendants conquered the land of Canaan (Jo 1) and made a covenant for the people at Shechem (Jo 24), stating that they would believe and serve God eternally. Therefore, they were the nation of promise, and by keeping the promise they would be made God’s kingdom and priests.

People will think how those who were enslaved under the devil’s king (pharaoh) could become God’s kingdom and sacred nation. However, God regarded faith in His covenant as righteousness (Rom 4:1-3, 5:1, 10:10) and that he will make those who believe God’s kingdom and priests.

2. The New Spiritual Israel
Among today’s Christians, there is no one that knows who they are within the Bible. They live believing that just faith in God and Jesus will bring salvation and lead them to heaven. It is said in the New Testament that by believing in the covenant recorded they become the promised nation and the kingdom and priests (Rv 1:5-6, 5:9-10). What is this covenant?       
 
At the time of the Second Coming, wheat from the field the seeds which Jesus and his disciples had sown 2000 years ago, will be harvested (Mt 13:30, 38-39) and taken to Mount Zion. On Mount Zion, one must be sealed with the word of revelation (the new song) (Rev 14:1-5), as the 12 tribes of the sealed 144,000 (Rv 7:3-4) become the kingdom and priests of God who were purchased with the blood of Jesus (Rv 1:5-6, 5:9-10). This is the promised nation and kingdom of the New Testament. This is not physical Israel, born of the seed of Abraham. It is the family of new Israel, the 12 tribes, born of God’s seed. God creates those with faith in the new testament into His nation and His kingdom and priests as he promised.

3. I, found in the Bible
If anyone asks who you are in the New Testament, you should be able to say confidently “I am God’s sealed kingdom and priests, the 12 tribes, harvested to Mount Zion.” Everything that has been fulfilled in Shincheonji (Rv 21) through the Bible today is what God has promised us in the New Testament and what God has told us to believe. By believing in this, we have obtained righteousness and have become God’s kingdom and priests. The promised words of New Testament that said “The sealed 12 tribes are God’s kingdom and priests” is what testifies us, who have  appeared in accordance to these words. We are the reality fulfilled according to the promised words of the New Testament.

We completely believe in everything that has happened to us today according to God and His promise.

[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!!

Shinchonji Twelve Tribes

Shinchonji Twelve Tribes

God's kingdom appearing in every era was the twelve tribes.
Jacob of the Old Testament received the name of "Israel (the ne who overcomes)" and became the beginning of the twelve tribes of the physical Israel.
Jesus who came to the land of Judea also overcame the world (Jn 16:33, Mt 4, Lk 4) and created the twelve tribes of the Spiritual Israel through the twelve disciples.

Work of harvesting and sealing 144,000 with the Word takes place at the time of harvest in Revelation 7.
It is mount Zion where the 144,000 are sealed, and the 144,000 who are sealed with the Word are called the "firstfruits"(Jas 1:18). The 144,000 are the Twelve Tribes created by being sealed with God's seal.
God's new kingdom, Shinchonji, is made up of such Twelve Tribes.

The Twelve Tribes of the New Spiritual Israel, created by God, is something new that has never eisted before, and it is the only kingdom of God and His temple.
The Twelve Tribes are established with the names of the twelve tribes of the Old Testament era, along with the names of Jesus' disciples.
Because it is said that those who do not belog to the Twelve Tribes in the last days do not become part of the people of God's kingdom, Shinchonji Twelve Tribes are working for the purpose of making known Shinchonji to the whole world, while healing all nations.
