The root of true religion is God, which means Christianity has its roots in the time of Adam. If we understand this, then Christianity has a 6,000 year history and can be considered the world's oldest religion. The great number of arguments and incidents that have occurred over this long history indicates that both the true God and many false gods have been working and fighting one another within Christianity. These incidents have occurred because the false gods were working to interfere with God's will (refer to 2 Thes 2:4), which is in the future of Christianity. Just because Buddhists and Confucianists claim to be seeking goodness and acting out of kindness, it does not mean there are no evil spirits working within them. Many non-Christians count themselves as Buddhists or Confucianists just because they have the heart to live out of kindness for others.
There is a path in all religions. The path is in the word (i.e. the holy scriptures). There are actually two kinds of paths: one leads to heaven and the other leads to hell. The scriptures describe these two paths in (refer to Dt 30:15-20). It is only when you realize there are two paths and are able to recognize them that you can choose to walk the path to heaven and steer clear of the path to hell. Walking the true path to heaven and teaching others to do the same is the path of righteousness. If you teach incorrectly, whether knowingly or unknowingly, you are walking the path to hell. There is an old saying that goes, "Even if you receive all the things of heaven, if it isn't the proper path, do not follow. If it isn't the path to righteousness, do not walk on it." This saying is about the true path of the scriptures--it is about the word.
People who do not know the meaning of the word or the path given by God through the prophets--people who interpret the Bible according to their own thoughts--walk a path of their own design, not one given by God. There are hundreds of different interpretations of the Bible that have been published in the form of biblical commentaries. This diversity of opinion is evidence that people walk on paths of their own design. The path of righteousness is a life of faith carried out according to the proper interpretation of God's word. Therefore, we must know the words of God's book to know God and his will. It is only through this knowledge that we can walk the path of righteousness (refer to Hos 6:6; Prv 11:9; Jn 17:3; Rom 10:2-3).
Over the past 6,000 years of Christian history, why did the pastors and people who claimed to believe in God curse and persecute the messengers God sent (Mt 23:34-35)? If the actions of these so-called God-fearing pastors are not evidence that the spirit of the devil entered and worked through them, then what is (refer to Jn 8; Rv 13)? By understanding this correctly, these kinds of actions can be avoided in the future. The fact, however, that they still continue to act in this way (refer to Acts 7:51-53) proves they have not yet understood.
Spirits have also entered and are working through people today. These spirits are in the words they speak (refer to Jn 6:63). False gods speak lies through them, carry out evil actions, refuse to allow them to believe the truth, and persecute the righteous (refer to Jn 8:44-45). These spiritual shells may look like religious people, but they are people who do not know true Christianity and its history; they do not know God or the words of the Bible. There are many people who gather in the name of Christianity and work together to seize ecclesiastical authority for their own benefit. They set themselves up as spiritual leaders and direct others to persecute the path of righteousness as heresy. How can they call themselves people of faith? How can they call themselves Christians? Are their actions characteristic of one walking the path of righteousness?
We have requested that they appear for a public discussion about these issues with us, but they refuse to participate. Instead, they indoctrinate their people to see everyone else as members of a cult. When they are questioned about verses in the Bible, they cannot respond with even a single word.
If a person wants to be one of God's saints, he must lower himself. Because the congregation members of these misfit pastors do not know any better, they wholeheartedly believe and obey their pastor's teachings as if they were the words of the God. In fact, this sort of behavior has led to numerous religious wars and judgment over the course of history. In the time of his first coming, Jesus told his disciples a story about a rich man who went to hell. The rich man asked Abraham to send Lazarus into the world to warn his family about their coming judgment. Abraham replied, however, that people who refuse to listen to God's messenger will refuse to listen even if someone rises from the dead to warn them (Lk 16:19-31).
Today, at the time of Revelation's fulfillment, the work of Shincheonji has begun. The messenger of Jesus has come and is testifying (Rv 1:2, Rv 10, Rv 22:16). Those who have the ears of the holy spirit must hear, understand, believe in the path of righteousness, and achieve salvation.
