The Time of the Second Coming which is Like the Times of Noah and Lot

The Time of the Second Coming which is
Like the Times of Noah and Lot


Main reference: Luke 17:22-30


      What does it mean when the scriptures say, one will not see the days of the Son of Man although they may long to see it, and the days of the Son of Man will be like the days of Noah and Lot?

One will be unable to see the days of the Son of Man, although they long to see it, because in the second coming the Lord will come as a spirit. The days of the Son of Man will be like the days of Noah and Lot because judgment will occur suddenly, just as it took place in the days of Noah and Lot. During the time of the judgment, it was only eight people in Noah's family and three people in Lot's family who were saved. The world was quiet. People were eating, drinking, selling, buying, marrying, and giving in marriage. Nothing was different from an ordinary life, but the judgment suddenly began. The scriptures, therefore, speak about how it will be the same in the time of the second coming.

The reason why people were judged during those times was because of the corruption and the betrayal of the previous or first heaven. The main reference in the New Testament refers to the corruption of the Spiritual Israelites at the time of the Lord's second coming. They are judged because of their acts of betrayal. Looking back on the reality of the Spiritual Israelites, which have lasted for the past 2,000 years, there is no one who truly knows God and the Bible. It is not easy to find people who believe in the Bible. Despite such corruption, people claim they are the orthodoxy, and they have attained salvation and the holy spirit. They treat others who are not part of their own organizations as heretics. Is this the command of the Lord?

Today's churches have formed an enormous organization, and it has turned into the marketplace where people buy and sell authority. According to Matthew 24, the temple of the chosen people was sabotaged and destroyed by the gentiles. Those who belong to heaven went dark and fell, just as the sun, moon, and stars go dark and fall from the sky. The scriptures also explain how the destroyer stands in the holy place and reigns over people. Revelation 13 and 18 portrays the fact the chosen people have been captured by the gentiles, and they have received the mark from the gentile pastors of Satan and worshiped them. Furthermore, all nations have fallen because of Satan's wine of adulteries. Can anyone say they have already gained salvation and are the orthodoxy? People neither seem to care about their corruption and sin, nor do they know the new covenant established through the blood and the word of the Bible. Today, Spiritual Israel has merely turned into the world of leaders, who are oppressing their congregation members with the authority they have exchanged with one another.

If one truly believes in God and his word, the Bible, they must at least consider the words which say the days of the second coming will be like the days of Noah and Lot, and they must reflect upon these words themselves. The reality, however, is believers are not concerned with those words in the scriptures. But instead, they have so much ignorance and arrogance within them, don’t they? How can they claim to believe in God and the Bible?

If the scriptures make references to the end times or the end of the age, believers should have thought at least once of whose end it refers to. If it was the Tabernacle Temple in heaven which fell, believers should have known the end referred to the end of the religious world, not of the world of non-believers. If one has acted according to their own will for the sake of money and authority, how heavy their punishment will be!

Several places in the Bible predicted the end of Christianity. They speak about how the first heaven and first earth will disappear. It speaks of how the second heaven, the new heaven and new earth will be created after the first heaven (the Spiritual Israelites). If one is a true believer, they will attentively listen to the word of the Bible and will not conduct any wickedness. Today's pastors and the congregation members, however, have betrayed God and the word, and they have become one with the devil. Are they not persecuting the returning Lord once again?

This is the act of sin which appears at the time of the second coming, just like at the times of Noah and Lot. Is this not the reality of the chosen people of the first heaven, the Spiritual Israelites? Have they not become evil men just like the Physical Israelite at the first coming?

This generation approves of any words from a religious organization which has seized authority, and it sides with that organization. Knowing the enormous size of this organization, even the authority figures in the world have affiliated with them, and they despise and look down upon the poor and the minority. Nevertheless, God is righteous. There will be judgment just like in the days of Noah and Lot. Even if it is a small group, God will still acknowledge righteous faith. If one does not believe in God's word of promise and does not even make an effort to know it, and if they put men's words above God's words, and oppress others to believe in men's words, they will certainly not escape being judged.

If one believes in the word of the Lord, which says today is like the days of Noah and Lot, they will be able to know what is taking place today.

We have seen the beginning and the end of Adam's world in the Bible. We have also seen the beginning and the end of the world (Canaan) of Noah, the ninth descendant of Adam. Through the time of the first coming, we have witnessed the beginning and the end of the world of the Israelites, the descendants of Abraham, who was also the tenth descendant of Noah.

The Spiritual Israelites originated from Jesus, and the era of the gospel of the Spiritual Israelites has lasted for the past 2,000 years. What was promised as the new covenant in the gospel of heaven, which Jesus and his disciples have preached for approximately 2,000 years? It has been promised in the gospel, the Spiritual Israelites and the gospel will come to an end through the second coming of the Lord, and the era of the new Spiritual Israel will launch. The events which occur during this transition of the eras are described to be synonymous as the events during the days of Noah and Lot. This very word also makes known how there will be the betrayal of the chosen people, the destruction by the gentiles, judgment, salvation, and re-creation. Believers in this current world are not interested in these events. Why aren’t they interested in them? It is because they have betrayed and have been tainted by the gentiles just like Adam and the Physical Israelites. At the time of the Lord's second coming, this current era will be judged and brought to an end. A new era and a new kingdom, the twelve tribes of the priests and the great multitude dressed in white, are promised to be created through the blood. All of these are promised through blood as a covenant, and these are the words of the promise in the New Testament. The saints who perceive, see, and believe in this will attain salvation. The only place of salvation is Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony.
