Shincheonji News - Ten thousand Shincheonji congregation members became light of the world doing serving work behind the scenes



As a part of ‘Love Society Serving Love’, the volunteer work of serving for the farming area, cleaning and purifying Mt. Moo-Deung, cutting hair, molting, helping elders and tutoring are ongoing volunteer work from Shincheonji Gwangju Zion Church. This volunteer group is like a great dutiful son for that region.

The farming season has been on going since last May, and this volunteer group visited to help anywhere a hand was needed to work on strawberry, tomato and pepper farms. The owner of a tomato farm, Kwon, Mi Sook (52, female) stated, “Due to a lack of helping hands, there were many hardships and I could only sleep two hours a day, but now, I am so thankful because I received help from Shincheonji Church.”

These farming areas still need more help along with harvesting each item, such as getting rid of the weeds and checking the vinyl houses for future harvest.

Shincheonji volunteer group, the light and salt of the world

The work of Shincheonji volunteer groups became a hope to residents. Volunteer work first began to help low-income residents, to give free haircuts for the elderly, and to serve meals and spend time together with the elders. These volunteer services have since continued, and many people have called to become part of this volunteer work.

Kwang Sook Kim(45, female) who lives in Gwangju, Ochi-Dhong said, “It’s been a while since I have seen a big smile from the old lady next door.” She also stated the volunteer work from Shincheonji Church is sincere and heartfelt.

Since the start of summer vacation, the volunteers have gathered students who do not have a mom or dad, and have given free tutoring, cooked together with them, helping students forget about the hot summer.

Mi Young Lee (28, female) is part of Shincheonji volunteer group and said, “We are the ones who get served by serving other people.” Ms. Lee stated, “If I open the window, do the laundry, clean all the dust and finish organizing my area, ‘I’m the one who feel the happiness.” She promised that she will serve anywhere help is needed.

One of the representatives from Shincheonji Gwangju Zion Church said, “The work of serving is the mindset that all believers should have. Just like the sky pours upon us constant light, rain and air, our serving work to help a life to live will continue in the same way for the residents in this area.”

The Energy of the West That Came to the East, the Fulfillment of the East Made Known to the West

Main reference: Mt 24





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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Shincheonji - The New Testament’s Twelve Tribes, 144,000 & the Multitude in White



Main reference: Rv 7

The New Testament is the new covenant Jesus established with his blood (Lk 22:20). The conclusion of the New Testament is the twelve tribes of God’s promised new kingdom. The 144,000 of the twelve tribes are those who are sealed (Rv 5:9-10), and the multitude in white are those whose sins have been washed away by Jesus’ blood (Rv 7:9-14). The sealed 144,000 are the priests (pastors) of God’s new kingdom, and the multitude in white is the new kingdom’s subjects (the congregation members) whose sins have been washed away. They were promised by the Lord with his blood at the First Coming; they are God’s kingdom and priests, and His people.

According to Rv 7:9-14, the great multitude dressed in white, that no one could count from every nation, tribe, people and languages, come out of the great tribulation after the 12,000 from each of the tribes are sealed. What is the reason for this event? The winds that were blown in Rv 6 are held back in Rv 7 while the 144,000 are sealed. The winds stop as promised, but they blow again once all of the 144,000 are sealed—this is why it says that the multitude in white comes out of the great tribulation.




The winds that were blown in Rv 6 were plagues given to the chosen people who betrayed, but the winds in Rv 7 are blown on every nation, tribe, people and languages, which means that they are blown on the churches of the whole world. The judgment (the wind) in Rv 6 takes place after they were urged to repent in chapters 2 and 3, and the winds in Rv 7 are blown on the people who did not repent and obey despite the fact that the fulfillment of Revelation was made known to them first. The sins of those who came out of the great tribulation were washed with Jesus’ blood so they could become the multitude in white, and this great tribulation takes place because the messenger of the covenant testifies to the fulfillment of Revelation to the whole world; the multitude in white comes out of this tribulation.

The events of the end of the age written in the Book of Revelation was originally preached in the nations of the West, Europe, and eventually came to the East, the ends of the earth (the energy of the West coming to the East). The gospel of heaven comes to an end because it was preached to the ends of the earth as promised (Ref: Mt 24:14), and the twelve tribes of the new kingdom of the latter-heaven is created by harvesting and sealing after the end of the previous-heaven.
Then, Jesus who fulfilled the New Testament (Revelation) sent his messenger to the churches to testify (to the revealed word of reality, the fulfillment of Revelation). The messenger who speaks on Jesus’ behalf saw and heard the events of Revelation’s fulfillment where these events took place. The work of harvesting and sealing began as he received and ate the revealed scroll, and he went around the whole world, starting from Europe, the nations of the West, for all the peoples of the world who had been waiting for the fulfillment of the New Testament; this is the “fulfillment of the East traveling to the West,” and through this, he made known the fulfillment of the New Testament to the whole world as described in Rv 2 and 3.
Those who believe and repent will come, but those who do not believe will not come. As promised, the four living creatures of Rv 6 release the strong winds to the whole world as the news of the New Testament’s fulfillment is made known and as many believers hear and know it. Those who perceive and come at this time are the multitude in white.

Events of betrayal, destruction, and salvation occurred at the time of Jesus’ First Coming. The betrayer was Jerusalem, the destroyers were the Pharisees, the snakes (Mt 23:33), and the savior was Jesus. The events of betrayal, destruction, and salvation also took place in today’s era in the same way, and the global harvest, the multitude in white, will come from all the nations of the world at the time of salvation. The pastors of the world are streaming to Shincheonji in Korea at this moment. They will learn the facts of the fulfillment of the New Testament and go back to blow the trumpet and cry out to the world of Christianity. As in the time of the First Coming, there will be clashes between those who believe and those who do not believe in this era (the time of the Second Coming), and there will be religious tribulation because of it. Just as there was an uproar among the established churches in Korea when Shincheonji began, the same thing will happen wherever this Word is preached. But the words of promise continue to be fulfilled. This is how the world will be conquered, and this is how God will take back the world that He lost and reign for the first time in 6,000 years.

As the the dragon is seized and the wedding banquet of the Lamb takes place (Rv 20:1-6), the First Resurrection beings, religious wars come to an end, and the world’s peace and rest come. As these events draw nearer to us, we must make a new turn in our hearts to hold the hands of the Lord and run, again and again. Let us become the light of the City of Truth, and the chosen people who are righteous and just.

Who acted as the master and controlled the world for the past, long 6,000 years? Satan was acting like the master, as God the Creator became a wanderer to His own creation. The family of Satan, not God, received all creation as their inheritance and had been living as such. People’s words, ideologies, histories, habits, actions, and sinful genes all belonged to Satan. What in the world took after God? People did not know about the Lord of Creation or Satan. They only knew how to live in such a way, as they had become accustomed to the world of Satan throughout the years. They lived without even knowing what truly was sin or righteousness. But people came to know who God is through religion, and came to know the history, moral teaching, prophecies, and fulfillment of the Bible, and who the true master of the world is.

Satan has been reigning over the earth for the past 6,000 years, and has been ruling and controlling over it; he was the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the one with the authority of the world. He was the seal of perfection in Eden and was full of wisdom, covered with every precious stone (Eze 28, NKJV). Jesus and the Promised Pastor of the New Testament must fight and overcome this Satan to take back from him what belongs to God.

Today, they overcame in the heavens (the spiritual realm) and the earth (the physical realm), and starting now come God’s kingdom, salvation, and authority (Rv 12). And it is written that the one who overcomes will receive the promises of Rv 2 and 3. The one who overcomes receives the food for eternal life (the hidden manna), the authority to judge (the white stone), and the authority to rule over all nations (the iron scepter). He heals all nations as God, heaven, and Jesus come down on him, and rules over all nations as he sits with Jesus on his throne.
This is the day of Shincheonji. Father God, thank you. Please reign on the heavens and the earth.

Amen! Hallelujah!

The Internet Broadcast is also gaining popularity outside of Korea

A letter from a Christian in China, wanting to watch Shincehonji Internet broadcast.

Many people from different backgrounds are viewing the Shincheonji Internet Broadcast. 

The Word of Truth is being spread through Shincheonji Internet broadcast, transcending time and space from all the regions of Korea to the whole world.
The target of the broadcast is not limited to the members of Shincheonji, but extends to all people including Christians who are learning the Word of Shincheonji, people who criticize Shincheonji, the pastors and the lay members. The viewers are sending in countless stories that move people’s hearts, though it only has been about a month since the broadcast was launched.

A student who is currently learning the Word of Shincheonji said, “I thought Shincheonji would probably teach moral teachings and historical things, a collection of all the sermons that I have heard before, wrapping them up nicely so that many people from different churches can agree to it.” However, after seeing Chairman Man Hee Lee’s lecture he confessed that, “The Chairman had no hesitation when preaching the Word. He went all the way from Genesis to Revelation without any stopping, hitting all the key points. Such content of the lecture could not be figured out by anyone, no matter how much time and money were available.”

Even people who are unfamiliar with the Internet are also sitting in front of their computers to view the Internet broadcast. A viewer who watched the Internet broadcast with the help of his son even sent an email saying that he wants to learn further detail—he found the Internet broadcast through a flyer that he received on the streets.

Broadcast that gives strength to the members of Shincheonji

The Internet broadcast was intended for ordinary Christians, but it also gives strength to the congregation members of Shincheonji who are far away and are not able to easily encounter the Word of Shincheonji. Last early March, a letter from a soldier came to the person in charge of the Internet broadcast. In the letter he said, “It was difficult to hear the Word of Shincheonji as I was called to serve the country in the army. However, I am so moved by the fact that I can hear the Word of life through the Internet broadcast now and increase in faith. It is so awesome the way the Internet broadcast explains, so that the content is very easy to understand.”

The value of the Word is recognized first in foreign countries

The Internet Broadcast is also gaining popularity outside of Korea. The number of viewers are increasing from outside of Korea, because of the advantages of the Internet’s not being tied down to time and space.

End of last February, there was an email inquiry from a Chinese person living in China that said, “I heard from a Christian regarding the Internet broadcast of Shincheonji. I thought the content of the broadcast was so great after hearing the content. I have already viewed lessons 1 to 4. How can I listen to more lessons?”

Basic knowledge of the Bible


Today lesson is basic knowledge of the Bible. I hope you read it and learn the bible correctly.


 In heaven and earth there exists God, Devil, and creation. We should know who God and Devil is through the bible. First, God is spirit not flesh so it is unable to see God with our eyes. He is also the creator and the only God.


 God made numerous angels and the angels were made to bless the lord and do God's word(ps 103:20-22). However, one of the four cherubs betrayed God and made his own nation interrupting God's work. We call that Devil.


We learned that God is the Creator. So he made everything. If we see John 1:1-4 God is word. And the word has life in it. He made creator of all things with his word which has life in it because God word is life.


However, evil betraying God, his desire made sin and sin made death to us. So God had to leave the earth(Gn 6:1-3) 



 However, because the will of God is to be with and dwell in men, God and Devil has had wars each other. We should know the war between God and Devil is not flesh and blood but against spiritual(Eph 6:10-17). Shouldn't we be God's servants? By knowing God's words we are able to be God's servants and win.

Shincheonji - The seven stars and the seven golden lampstands

Main reference : Rv 1,2,3




What are the seven stars and the seven golden lampstands that were prophesied in Revelation?

Jesus said to John, ‘The mystery is this, the seven stars are the angels, and the seven golden lampstands are the seven churches.' (Rv 1:20) Then, who are the seven messengers and what are the seven churches, when and from where do they appear and from which church? John saw Jesus holding seven stars in his right hand standing among the seven golden lampstands (seven churches) (Rev 1:12-16)

Is Jesus in flesh or in spirit? Is John who saw this in the flesh or in spirit? Jesus was among the seven golden lampstands in the spirit. John was the flesh that was moved when he saw and heard the holy spirit and the word in flesh.


New John saw the fulfillment of the prophecies to the main reference which took place in Gwachon, Korea in 1979. Jesus worked with the seven angels who were the chosen messengers; they are the lampstands - messengers who prepare the way at the time of the end (at Revelation's fulfillment). The seven golden lampstands is the body or church, who do the work of unveiling. As seen in Rv 4, the light on top of the candlestand is God's seven spirits blazing before Gods throne. The reason this is clearly made known is according to Jesus' promise because it is not the era to speak figuratively but to speak clearly through the reality (Jn 16:25).


The seven messengers and the seven golden lampstands who were in the tabernacle (heaven) are connected to each other.

It was made like this at the time of Moses (Ex25:31-40) everything was exactly made according to the things that were seen in heaven. It is the same at Jesus' First Coming (Jn 5:35, Mt 11:12-13). John the Baptist worked as the light of a lamp.

According to the promise in Rv 1, first there is a work of a lampstand - the messengers from the church of the golden lampstands - that prepares the way  even at Jesus' second coming. The work of the seven golden lampstands or lampstands, is to prepare the way for the bridegroom who is Jesus at the time of the end.

Jesus doesn't come at until the messengers who are the seven golden lampstands prepare the way at the time of the end. When the work of the messengers who prepare the way is seen, then Jesus will come again soon.


Believers must perceive this and repent. What we first need to know from the Bible is that when the messengers who prepare the way do their work, there is someone who comes before Jesus at the time of the end. This is the group of destruction who are Satan's Nicolaitans (beast with seven heads and ten horns). Like this, the work of religion begins with the work of God. God works through men who then work together with Him. This is the same with those who belong to God and those who belong to Satan. The messengers of the seven lampstands and the messenger of Revelation 22:16 are different.

When the spirits of the seven lampstands before God's throne chooses a person on earth and works together with them, if that person falls into Satan's deception the spirit working within that person leaves (reference Rv 2:5), and Satan's spirit dwells together with them.

The summary of the messenger who prepares the way - the seven golden lampstands reveal the way to the Lord, this is not Jesus but he is the one who comes before the Lord to prepare the way for him. We must never forget that the Lord comes out from the place where the messenger who prepares the way appears from.

As recorded, Satan's group invaded through the appearance of the messengers who prepare the way and started a war between them. The messenger who prepares the way is defeated and flees in seven directions (Dt 28:25) at the time of the first coming and the second coming. Then, Jesus comes to fight and overcome Satan's pastors who destroyed the first tabernacle and establishes God's nation.


Therefore, if you don’t know the purpose of the Bible then you will not know the reality of the promises even if you see it according to the fulfillment. By perceiving the word you enter into the heaven you have hoped for through faith and receive salvation. Those who are defeated from the war flee in seven directions as recorded in the Scripture and the One Who Overcomes becomes Israel and creates the twelve tribes. How can you say that you are a believer even after seeing this? We at Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of Testimony have fought and overcome Satan and the Nicolaitans and created the twelve tribes. God and Jesus Christ are with Shincheonji as promised in Revelation chapter 2 and 3 (Rv 3:12, 21, 21:1-7).

Amen!

Shincheonji - God's World and Satan's World

Main references:
Acts 7:51-53; Mt 5:10-12; Mt 23:29-35; Jn 15:18-24; Jn 16:1-4

Looking back at the six thousand years long history of the Bible, it is not the outsiders nor the non-believers, but people who say they truly and faithfully believe in God who persecuted and killed all the pastors God had sent (Mt 23:29-35, 26:1-5; Mt 27; Acts 7:51-60).

In Jesus' first coming, God's people the Israelites who faithfully believed in God didn't accept God and His son Jesus (Jn 1:9-11), but persecuted Jesus and his disciples calling them a heresy, a devil and eventually killed them (Mt 12:22-24; Jn 16:1-4; Acts 24:1-9). 
Again in the second coming, the pastors and their people will persecute and threaten to kill the promised pastor who God and Jesus sends (Rv 11:7-10; Rv 12; Rv 16:13-16). This is due to their ignorance of the Bible (Hos 4:6), and the evil spirit that controls them.

Today (time of Revelation), the promised nation Shincheonji is in God's six thousand years long history of the Bible to be the greatest City of Truth (Jn 14:16-17, 15:26, 16:13-15). No one on earth can come to God, Jesus or the kingdom of heaven without going through Shincheonji. Because God, Jesus, and the Kingdom of heaven is at Shincheonji (Rv 3:12, 21; Rv 21). If this was not true then you should give us reasons from the Bible.

God's world is a world of truth, love, forgiveness and blessing. While Satan's world is false teachings (lies), persecution, murder, and cursing.
Whether in the past or today, Satan's false pastors make up lies and spread them (Jn 8:44). We, Shincheonji holds the testimonial entities that fulfilled the prophecies of Revelation. It is for this reason that we claim our testimony is true.
