About Adding and Taking Away from Revelation

About Adding and Taking Away 
from Revelation



Main reference: Rv 22:18-19






Revelation is the summary of the promise God made in the New Testament. God made this promise so that when it does happen we will believe (Jn 14:29). Just as Jesus fulfilled the Old Testament at the First Coming (Jn 19:30), he also fulfills the New Testament at the Second Coming (Rv 21:6). The people at the First Coming (the Jews) persecuted and killed Jesus, whom God was with, because they did not know that all of the Old Testament was fulfilling at that time. Likewise, if one does not know that the New Testament is fulfilling at the Second Coming, they will also persecute in the same way Jesus was persecuted at the First Coming.




God said that no one in heaven or on earth can open or even look inside the book sealed with seven seals, the book of Revelation (Rv 5). This has been a mystery that God (and Jesus) will fulfill. If one does not recognize when the fulfillment takes place, how can he believe in it? Jesus fulfilled this work and made it known to the churches through the messenger (the One Who Overcomes) who saw and heard these things (Rv 22:16). Just as God fulfilled the Old Testament and preached the fulfillment through Jesus at the First Coming, Jesus fulfills the New Testament at the Second Coming and preaches the fulfillment through the One Who Overcomes as he promised in Revelation 2 and Revelation 3. Therefore, all the congregation members and pastors in the entire world must meet and listen to the messenger sent by Jesus to know about the fulfillment. If they defy the promised messenger, they will not know about the fulfillment of Revelation, nor believe in it. As a result, they will not receive salvation in the same way physical Israel didn't receive salvation at the time of the First Coming.




The work of the betrayer, the work of the destroyer, and the work of the savior are recorded in Revelation. These three types of people appear and carry out their work as recorded. How can one receive salvation if they do not see or know about these people? Church members say that they have faith in their pastors, but their pastors do not know Revelation.



Furthermore, the end of the age, the time of Revelation, is the time when all the earthly pastors are corrupt. Anyone who knows the New Testament of the Bible will admit to this. It is recorded in Revelation 6 and Revelation 21 that Spiritual Israel ends in the era of Jesus’ Second Coming which is the time of Revelation, just as Adam’s generation ended at Noah’s time, Noah’s generation at Moses’ time, and Moses’s generation of physical Israel at the time of Jesus’ First Coming.



Even though the corrupt Spiritual Israel of today are turning the churches into the pastors’ own business enterprises, pastors deceive their congregation into thinking that the pastors have received salvation, and that they are leading the congregation to salvation. Despite their lack of knowledge of the Word of God in the New Testament, the pastors today are guiding their church members by their own thoughts and own knowledge.


Because the church members regard their pastors’ words above God’s Word, God is now fulfilling the prophecy—he is ending the corrupt world of religion and starting a new era.



The believers of today are not even acknowledging the words in Lk 17:26-30 that Jesus’ Second Coming will be like the days of Noah and Lot. Even though it is recorded that one will receive curses (plagues) if he adds or takes away from Revelation (Rv 22:18-29), they do not take it to heart.



Both pastors and church members alike have added and taken away from Revelation, and they are not taking these words to heart. It is written that one must be harvested to receive salvation, but they are fearful of being harvested and fearful of being sealed by the Word of revelation. How can they not be Satan’s army? They are also afraid of becoming a part of the twelve tribes of the promised nation. Therefore, they are not believers of God, but people who oppose God. They are unlawful children and enemies who refute and stand against God. They are no different from the pastors and the church members at the First Coming.




In this era, those who believe in God and do not add or take away from Revelation are those born of God’s seed, the promised people of God, and the eternal children of God. They open a new era and become the people of heaven who live eternally with their Father God in heaven.

The Proof for Believing in God


The Proof for Believing in God
 



God is the one and only God (Jn 17:3). He is the creator of heaven and earth and the source of all blessings (Gn 1:1; Rom 1:20). What is the evidence for believing in God?
 
God is the founder of religion and the author of the scriptures (i.e. the Bible). Christians must carry out their lives of faith based on the scriptures. Living people have neither been to heaven, nor have they seen God. We believe in both heaven and God, however, because of the scriptures and because of the spiritual path that has been passed down to us.
 
What acts as evidence to prove a person believes in God? What do we need for God to acknowledge our faith?
 
Since we cannot see him, believing in God’s word is the same as believing in God (refer to Rom 10:17; Heb 11:1). Faith in God’s word, therefore, provides evidence that a person believes in God. John 1:1 says, “In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and the word was fully God.” Wherever the word is, there is God; wherever God is, there is the word. Thus, believing in God’s word is the same as believing in God.
 
 
Since the word is life and light, people with the word become light and possess life (Jn 1:1-4, Jn 8:12). The word is also symbolized by the seed of God. Hence, a person born of God’s seed is God’s son (refer to Mt 13:37-38; Jas 1:18; 1 Jn 3:9) and can be created in God’s image and likeness. People without the word, however, do not have God, light, or life. Without being born of God’s seed, they cannot be created into God’s image or likeness.
 
Jesus was the son of God and he was the true light and life. He was also the word created in God’s image and likeness (refer to 1 Jn 1:1-3) because he was born of God’s seed. If we, like Jesus, also receive and are born of God’s seed, we will become like Jesus. This is, in fact, God’s will.
 
The type of faith God acknowledges is faith in the words God promised. When the fulfillment appears according to the words of promise, the faith of people who believe in that fulfillment proves that they really believe in God.
 
Just because a person claims to believe in God with his lips, attends church, makes monetary offerings, does volunteer service, and serves his pastor does not mean that he is acknowledged by God as a true believer. People who are zealous without knowing God’s will or the true meaning of righteousness are simply trying to lift themselves up above others (refer to Rom 10:2-3). More than offering money or giving worship, God wants us to truly know him (refer to Hos 6:6). We prove we believe in God by knowing God and by believing in and obeying his promises (Rv 1:2-3).
 
If we were to give a group of Christians 100 or even 1,000 questions from the New Testament, how many people could answer just one question properly? It wouldn’t surprise me if none of them could answer those questions properly. If this is the case, is it right for these people to claim that they are orthodox or that they have already received salvation and the holy spirit? The Bible says, “Now this is eternal life—that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you sent,” (Jn 17:3). The Bible also says, “For the spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God,” (1 Cor 2:10).
 
We must be honest before others and even more honest before God. Our yes should be yes and our no should be no. We should claim to know only what we really know and admit that we do not know what we do not know. It is only when we earnestly pray to God—when seek to know him and his will—that God will reveal himself to us.
 
Today is the same as the times of Noah and of Jesus’ first coming (Mt 24:37-39; Rv 11:8). The kingdom of heaven is indeed near. Everyone must repent. The words of the promises in the New Testament are being fulfilled. Believing in the words of the promises is believing in Jesus. No one can attain salvation unless they know the words of the promises and their physical fulfillment.
 
All the wealth, fame, and power in the world are nothing but empty dreams. They are not eternal life. We will become believers whom the Lord acknowledges when we seek eternal life and when we understand and obey the Lord’s will.

Distinguishing a Good Person and an Evil Person

 
 
Distinguishing a Good Person
and an Evil Person
 
Main reference: Mt 7:13-14
 
 
After the sin of Adam, Adam who had consumed good and evil had good and evil within himself, and anyone born of his gene would also carry good and evil.

From the time of Genesis 4 to Revelation in the New Testament, there was opposition between good and evil, and even though God sent His prophets in every era, the pastors in that era who said that they believed in God, persecuted and killed them all.

Similarly, at Jesus’ First Coming, in Lk 20 (vs. 9-15), Jesus and his disciples whom God was with were killed by them. The very pastors who killed the prophets and the disciples – who is true and false, and who are the chosen people of God? And whose spirit is using the pastors who killed the messengers sent by God?

At the First Coming, Jesus called the teachers of the law and the Pharisees who persecuted him ‘the snakes that deceived Adam and Eve,’ and those whom they guided, the people of Jerusalem, ‘the brood of vipers’ (Mt 23:33). Today, when Revelation of the New Testament is being fulfilled, Jesus said in Rv 22:16 that he sent his messenger to the churches to testify to the fulfilled events of Revelation. However, how many will truly believe and acknowledge him? Just as they did to Jesus at the First Coming, will they persecute and kill him? We are asking the pastors of today for their honest answer!

Today, we, Shincheonji (New Heaven, New Earth), have mastered the entire Scriptures (1 Cor 2:10), have seen, heard and understood the fulfillment and have testified to the churches. The pastors of today do not accept this good news and accuse Shincheonji that testified, through persecution. Even now, the worldly churches have proclaimed war with Shincheonji, and just like Jesus’ First Coming, they have mobilized together to tighten around Shincheonji’s neck. In 2007, the members of Christian Council of Korea united with those who sinned within Shincheonji and left, and in order to kill Shincheonji, they fabricated 14 lies and televised them through MBC PD Note, and even without confirm‍ing the truth at all, conducted a biased, distorted report twice (one was 50 minutes, another short version of approximately 15 minutes) to the people of the country, and condemned Shincheonji as a cult, the way the pastors and elders did to Jesus at the First Coming. Through this, they prosecuted a detailed investigation on Shincheonji, and broadcasted their biased distorted reports, but in October of 2009, the MBC PD Note program showed a correction report, and a counterargument.

Even after this, Christian magazine publishers and broadcasting companies constantly published false articles and reports about Shincheonji. Is this an act of love, forgiveness and blessing? How can persecution, cursing, judging and lies be of God’s truth and very love that Jesus taught us?

The Christian Council of Korea, just like Calvin, labels anyone who does not belong to them as a cult. Heresy Countermeasure Committee (이단대책위원회), who belongs to the Christian Council of Korea, deceive the parents whose children go to Shincheonji by convincing the parents to believe that their children have fallen into hell, and tells them that for multiple payments of hundreds of dollars per child, they will convert their children back; they use the parents to force handcuffs on their child’s hands and feet, tape over their mouths, and forces them in a car and locks them up in a room for compulsory conversion education. The content of this education is false, which they made into a DVD and their own website (café, blog, home page, etc), which is the start of their personal attacks. Is this the truth? Is this the Bible?

Currently churches buy and sell board seats for money, and the pastors that belong to them do not even graduate from seminary but give money to become ordained as pastors. This shows that the church is more corrupt than the world. Can this place and Shincheonji Temple of Tabernacle of the Testimony become united as one?

Jesus, in Mt 19:27-29 said, “at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel, for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life.” Not only this, but in Rv 21, heaven and God will come down upon Shincheonji (New Heaven New Earth) (Rv 3:12) and there will be no more death and pain in this kingdom and will instead receive the inheritance.

Could this place belong to the currently existing denominations that have thrown away this promise and have become corrupted? These churches today are divided because of titles, authority and fame (The Christian Council of Korea and 한교연), calling each other cult and judging one another. Their respective magazine publishing companies condemn Shincheonji and make books filled with lies, selling them to all the church members to make money, while broadcasting companies are showing lies about Shincheonji, slandering and raising their viewer ratings. How will they avoid the judgment of hell?

We ask Jesus and his disciples these questions.

 “Are the actions of the current existing churches sincere and true?”

 “Will we become true orthodoxy if we become united with them? Or must we become one with Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of Tabernacle of the Testimony, promised according to the Bible, and according to the promises in the Bible, be reborn through God’s seed and His holy spirit, be harvested, be sealed, belong to the 12 tribes of the promised kingdom, do not add to or subtract from Revelation, and be written in the book of life?

“Please define good and evil between these two. Please make this known to them. We want to keep the promises of the Bible, becoming a congregation member of God and Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of Tabernacle of the Testimony, so that we can eternally become the family of our Father God.”

 Those born of the seed of persecution whether then or now will still persecute, and those born of truth and love will be as they are today and back then (Jn 15:18-34).

Mt 23:29-36

“Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of dead men’s bones and everything unclean. And you say, ‘If we had lived in the days of our forefathers, we would not have taken part with them in shedding the blood of the prophets.’ So you testify against yourselves that you are the descendants of those who murdered the prophets. Fill up, then, the measure of the sin of your forefathers! “You snakes! You brood of vipers! How will you escape being condemned to hell? Therefore I am sending you prophets and wise men and teachers. Some of them you will kill and crucify; others you will flog in your synagogues and pursue from town to town. And so upon you will come all the righteous blood that has been shed on earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah son of Berekiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar. I tell you the truth, all this will come upon this generation.”

Acts 7:51-53

“You stiff-necked people, with uncircumcised hearts and ears! You are just like your fathers: You always resist the Holy Spirit! Was there ever a prophet your fathers did not persecute? They even killed those who predicted the coming of the Righteous One. And now you have betrayed and murdered him – you who have received the law that was put into effect through angels but have not obeyed it.”

Mt 5:11-12

“Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.”

Jn 15:18-23

“If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you. Remember the words I spoke to you: ‘No servant is greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also. They will treat you this way because of my name, for they do not know the One who sent me. If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. Now, however, they have no excuse for their sin. He who hates me hates my Father as well.”

Jn 16:1-4

“All this I have told you so that you will not go astray. They will put you out of the synagogue; in fact, a time is coming when anyone who kills you will think he is offering a service to God. They will do such things because they have not known the Father or me. I have told you this, so that when the time comes you will remember that I warned you. I did not tell you this at first because I was with you.”

Lk 20:9-16 He went on to tell the people this parable: 

“A man planted a vineyard, rented it to some farmers and went away for a long time. At harvest time he sent a servant to the tenants so they would give him some of the fruit of the vineyard. But the tenants beat him and sent him away empty-handed. He sent another servant, but that one also they beat and treated shamefully and sent away empty-handed. He sent still a third, and they wounded him and threw him out. “Then the owner of the vineyard said, ‘What shall I do? I will send my son, whom I love; perhaps they will respect him.’ But when the tenants saw him, they talked the matter over. ‘This is the heir,’ they said. ‘Let’s kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’ So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them? He will come and kill those tenants and give the vineyard to others. When the people heard this, they said, “May this never be!”

Jesus ended corrupted Physical Israel and established Spiritual Israel promised in the New Testament, which is now the former heaven at the end of age, the Lord’s Second Coming. The churches of the former heaven at the Second Coming have become corrupted, and not one stone will be left on another, but it was said that everyone one will be thrown down (Mt 24:1-2). This appears in Rv 18, where the nations have become drunk and are destroyed, and this is like the falling of the sun, moon and stars that belong to heaven, and it is said that heaven and earth will disappear (Mt 24:29, Rv 6:12-13). And the Second Coming is said to be like the time of Noah and Lot (Mt 24:37-39, Lk 17:26-30).

However, the Christian Council of Korea, who do not have Jesus’ words of prophecies, call themselves orthodoxy and say they are saved. Should we believe in Jesus’ words or believe in the words of the Christian Council of Korea? The Bible is telling us the answer. We at Shincheonji absolutely will believe in the words of the Bible. Those who belong to the Christian Council of Korea will believe in the words of the Christian Council of Korea. Who is truly saved then?

We of Shincheonji have learned the prophecies and reality of the fulfillment from Rv 1 to Rv 22:21, and have taken an exam, graduated with 90% and above, and have not added to or subtracted from the words of Revelation. The Christian Council of Korea, like Calvin, have completely added to and subtracted from Revelation. Will they truly go to heaven, or hell? Look at Rv 22:18-19. Is this truly orthodoxy? No matter how much you look at it, they are scoundrels.

We know the realities of the betrayers, destroyers, and savior that appear in Revelation. Does the Christian Council in Korea know? A fool will not know this.

We of Shincheonji are receiving persecution like Jesus did at the First Coming, and just as it is written in Mt 7:13-14, we are walking on the road that leads to life.

The broad road, Christian Council of Korea and [Christian Council of Korea that loves money and Communion of Churches in Korea that came out of it], is going down to its destination of the fiery hell, isn’t it?

The reason why the Christian Council of Korea persecutes Shincheonji is because Jesus dwells within Shincheonji (Jn 15:18 If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first).

Jesus in Jn 14:20, taught in regards to today, “On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you” and as written, we know of this. The Christian Council of Korea do not know this because Jesus is not within them.

Those who want to know the Word and receive salvation can find refuge if they come to Shincheonji. This is what Jesus spoke (Rv 7, 12, 19). We are the sealed 12 tribes!

Amen!

The Reason and the Cause of Persecution

The Reason and the Cause of Persecution
  
Main reference: Acts 7:51-53, Mt 23:30-33
 

<Persecutor and those who are persecuted>
In the Bible, there is God and the Devil, and the pastors who belong to them. In the 6,000 years of God’s work, there are persecutors and those who are persecuted (refer to Mt 5:10-12). The persecutors belong to the Devil and those who are persecuted belong to God. God’s pastors loved, forgave and blessed while the Devil’s pastors persecuted, cursed, liked, and quarreled. Those who belong to God and those who belong to Satan are made known through this.

 
<The Reason for and Cause of Persecution>
As written in the Bible, the reason for and cause of persecution are to hide their own false testimonies (Jn 15:18-25, 16:1-30). But, these cannot be hidden and only add to their sins. While persecuting, putting people out of the synagogue and killing, they say that this is the example of serving God (Jn 16:2); in the same way, persecutors still argue that they are orthodox and accuse others of heresy. This is like judging others when they themselves did wrong; the heretics set themselves up as orthodoxy and make the true orthodox a cult. If one says that black is white, does the black become white? And if one says that white is black, does the white become black? (Is 5:20-23)
 
The old prophets whom God sent, Jesus whom God was one, and his disciples were called heretics by the Jews ((refer to Mt 26:65-73), Acts 24:5), but they were not real heretics. Rather those who called them heretics were the true heretics. Today, would people not call Shinchonji a cult? However, the twelve tribes of Shinchonji are the kingdom of God that was promised in the Bible and fulfilled on earth as it is in heaven (Rv 7, 14:1-5, 21:1-2). Therefore, Shinchonji is not heretical but “true-ical”—orthodox, and of all orthodoxy, the direct orthodoxy from Revelation.
 
At the time of Jesus’ First Coming, God and Jesus delivered the most wondrous (Is 29:14) Word of revelation (Mt 11:27); the disciples also delivered the revealed words of Jesus (Gal 1:11-12). As Jesus proclaimed the revealed word (Mt 11:27), he called the pastors of that time the blind from the passage in Isaiah 29:9-10, saying, “If a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit” (Mt 15:14). He also said that the things they taught and learned were nothing but teachings of men, and they were close to the Lord with their lips, saying “Lord, Lord” but their hearts were far from God (Is 29:13, Mt 15:7-9). This means that the pastors of the time and their congregation were unable to receive salvation, and only those who received the revelation as Jesus’ will knew God and were saved.
 
This is the reason and cause that the Jewish pastors persecuted Jesus and his disciples. At the time, the pastors called Jesus a pestilent fellow, a heresy in order to keeping people from going onto Jesus and not hear the Words as described above (Mt 23:13). The reason why they used this method, was because they were afraid of their false testimony or lies surfacing and of them (power, status, honor and wealth) being destroyed. Had they repented and become lower and obeyed the Word, they could have been saved.
 

<The Reason for Persecuting Shinchonji, Church of Jesus, as a cult>
The reason for persecuting Shinchonji, Church of Jesus as a cult is same as that of the time of the Jesus’ First Coming. There is no truth anywhere and only the teachings of men, and to raise their prestige, fear that their false testimony of the sealed word and its reality would be revealed, they persecute Shinchonji by calling it a cult. Shinchonji is the only place in the whole world that received and is testifying to the revealed words of Revelation 10Upon the whole world, and the only place that mastered the Bible and testifies the revelation and its physical reality. 
 
Jesus took the sealed scroll that was in the right hand of God in Rev 5 and, after he removed all the seals, gave it to an angel in Rev 6, 8. The angel then gave it to the New John to eat in Rev 10 and commanded him to deliver the revealed word and what he saw, to many peoples, nations, languages and kings. Therefore, Jesus’ will is for the peoples, nations, languages and kings to receive the revelation from the New John; this is the will of Jesus and the New John. Those who do not obey this will do not believe in Jesus nor his Word. How can one gain salvation if he does not believe in the promise?
 
Through this explanation of the difference between the false testimony of the teachings of men and the revealed words of today’s New Testament, they should no longer lie. We Shinchonji testified to what no one could so no one can give excuses for their sin.
 

Those who want to receive true salvation must believe in the revelation of Jesus more so than the words of men, and must make biblical judgments. Revelation is the revelation of Jesus, and if anyone adds anything to them, or takes words away from the book, he can neither enter the heaven nor avoid disaster (Rev 22:18-19). Do pastors and believers truly believe in these words? Have they not added to took words away from Revelation? Everyone is to be judged according to what has been recorded in the Bible based on their deeds (Rev 20:12). Whoever believes in today’s promised Revelation and its reality will be saved.

Our life of faith in Shincheonji

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

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!
