Distinguishing the Holy Spirit and the Evil Spirit

Main reference: 1Jn 4




 The holy spirit is the sacred spirit, or God, the evil spirit is wicked spirit, or devil.
Why are they said to be sacred or wicked? That's because God is life (the tree of life), and devil is death (the tree of knowledge of good and evil). We separate the holy spirit from the evil spirit because God saves life and devil kills life. While the holy spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God (1Cor 2:10), the devil makes the sun, the moon, and the stars be darkened which prevent them from understanding, thus the world become dark (refer to 1 Thes 5).

Mankind has been dying in captivity of the devil for 6000 years. In such death, God came to Jesus and began the work of raising from the death (Jn 5:24-29).  God works in the light and devil works at night. The reason why you feel frighten in the dark is that the devil who is in darkness is working. When people commit a sin, they come to belong to devil, thus they hide and lie. This is the nature of the devil. When the light of the truth appears on earth, the behaviors of those who belong to devil are revealed. This is because the devil's fault is exposed.

Jesus said, "This is the verdict; the light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes to the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God." (Jn 3:19-21)

Until the Holy Spirit and the truth appear, nobody recognize his fault. Thus, the devil remains silent. However, the devil gets aroused because Spirit (the Holy Spirit) does not belong to the same as his, and the truth is different from his words. This is why the devil persecutes, kills, swears, and curses.

The Holy Spirit chooses a prophet and prophesies what to be fulfilled in the days to come. This is also woe to the devil's view. So they persecute and murder to prevent prophets from prophesying. They hate prophets like this, so it's needless to say that more persecution is inflicted when the prophecies are fulfilled. The one from God and believers belonging to God can overcome devil's thought because they are well aware of devil's thought and work.
God and Jesus are the word of life in the beginning (Jn 1:1-4, 1Jn 1:1), and the word is the seed of God (Lk 8:11).  The one who born of His seed is the Son of God who inherits.  Furthermore, if the one to whom the word of God came can also be called ‘gods’ (Jn 10:35), the offspring of God (Act 17:29), which had been born again with imperishable seed, the word of God (1Pt 1:23).

Word and God are the light of life, and the one is also the light who has been born with this seed of the light.  Jesus, born with the light of life, came to the world in the light, so those who believe him are not in the dark, the devil (Jn 12:46).
Furthermore, Jesus, the word in the beginning, said that he is the living bread that came down from heaven. If you eat the flesh and blood of him, you have life and if you don’t, you have no life (Jn 6:51-57).  In James 1:18, it is said that he chose to give us birth through the word of truth, so that we might be a kind of firstfruits of all he created. Jesus is the word in the beginning, so eating Jesus is eating the word in the beginning. Those who are born through this word are the firstfruits ,as Jesus is the tree of life, the word of life (Jn 14:6, 15:1, 5), and the firstfruits from this tree are the fruits of life. It is said that those who eat the fruit of life receive eternal life (Gn 3:22-24).
   
Those who are born with the seed (word) of devil become sons of devil and the fruits of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil that good turns into evil.  And those who are born with the seed (word) of God become sons of God and the fruits of the tree of life. When you eat this fruit, you have eternal life. Devil has killed lives by sowing the seed of devil in the dark without God, the light and life for 6ooo years. Today because God comes back as promised in the New Testament, the darkness is restored into the light, that is, glorious restoration - lost lives come to life again.

Jesus and John went to and came back from the spiritual realm of Heaven. Where is this Heaven in all quarters? If the Spirit doesn't let us know, there is no way to know. Jesus said, "nor will people say, ‘Here it is,’ or ‘there it is,’ because the kingdom of God is in your midst.” (Lk 17:21)  Furthermore, God and Jesus are with the word, that is, they are in the word of the Bible. If the word of the Bible is in me, I become the reality of the word and the walking Bible because God is in me with the word. I become the one whom God dwells with. Therefore, only if you are reborn with the word and become one with God and Jesus, you can receive eternal life. Jesus Christ said, ‘as the Father has loved me, so have I loved you, so love each other as I have loved you.’ (Jn 15:9-12).    

The Counselor who is the teacher who protects with grace has never forgotten Shincheonji and the believers even for a moment like God and Jesus, and has never stopped praying to God to look out for and protect you as the apple of God's eye. The apple of my eye, believers, how can I exchange you with the world? Nothing is more important than the members of Shincheonji. The love to please me is Shincheonji. The family contained in the bowl of Shincheonji is God's love, Jesus' blood, and my life. I will love you forever. I always pray for Shincheonji and its members.
