The Seed of God & the Inherited Seed of the Sinner
Main reference: Jer 31:27
The main reference is the word which God prophesied to Jeremiah, the son of Hilkiah, roughly 2,600 years ago. He promised to sow the seed of man and the seed of animals. About 600 years after it was promised, God came to Jesus and sowed seed (Mt 13).
What is the seed of man, and what is the seed of animal?
Jesus referred to this seed as the secret of the kingdom of heaven in Matthew 13:10-11. The seed (the seed of man) which Jesus, the Son of Man, planted, was the word of God (Lk 8:11). The seed (the seed of animals) that the Pharisees, who were the snakes, the animals, planted was the word of the devil (Mt 23). These were spiritual seeds, not physical seeds. Since they were spiritual seeds, they were planted in people’s hearts. Thus, people’s hearts are figurative fields (1 Cor 3:9).
Religion transcends science. If oil runs out of a lamp, then the light will soon be put out. In the same logic, the breath of life which was given during Adam’s time (Gn 2:7) gradually decreased. People lived nearly 1,000 years and then died at that time. The people of today, the children of Adam, however, do not even live 100 years before they die. They die in this way because the life line has been disconnected [from God]. Their life cannot be replenished due to the disconnection, and their breath of life has run out.
What is this life? That life is the word of God. God, who is the word, left men, and as a result, the life line has been disconnected. This is why people’s life expectancy has decreased. The sinner who ate the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil might seems to be alive because he has a soul, but his spirit is dead. Flesh gives birth to flesh, and spirit gives birth to spirit (refer to Jn 3:1-6). Therefore, only when one receives the breath of life from God, will he become a living spirit again. His dead spirit will resurrect from his own tomb and come out of it.
No one can enter heaven unless they are born again of God’s spirit and His seed. Before they are born again, they bear the genes of the sinner, the serpent, and they have both good and evil within them. Under this situation, they are like beasts (serpents) which are born of the seed of animals. How can such people live with God in heaven? God chose Adam’s descendants (Noah, Moses, etc.) and worked through them for about 4,000 years, but as a result of what was in their genes, they ended up betraying God. This is why God prophesied in Jeremiah 31, and He gave birth to Jesus through His seed in Luke 1. In doing so, God also allowed Jesus’ disciples to be born again. Since Jesus and his disciples were born again, they did not betray, and they were devoted and faithful even to the point of martyrdom. This is the new work which Jesus carried out. The work of the seed of God’s Son, who is without sin, has begun (Jer 31:22, 27; Mt 13; Jn 1:12-13). This seed has been sown for about 2,000 years. Today, those who are born of this seed are harvested, and God’s new kingdom, heaven, is constructed (Rv 14).
Let us examine the beast, the entity of good and evil.
The beast is the serpent. It was the serpent that deceived Eve. The Pharisees were snakes. Even the seven heads and the beast with ten horns in Revelation are the serpents, the group of the dragon. According to Revelation 12:9 and 20:2, the serpent is the devil, Satan, and the dragon. Whoever is born of the genes of this serpent is also a serpent (Mt 13:25-30, 38-39). The serpent was one of the wild animals that God created (Gn 3:1). Eve and Adam ate the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, which the serpent gave to them. Unlike the words of the serpent, they neither became like God, nor did they live, but they died.
There is life in God’s word (Jn 1:1-4), but there is poison in the serpent’s word. Whoever receives the word of this poison also tells lies because both good and evil dwell within that person. His end is death. The serpent has the poison of good and evil, which kills life. According to Deuteronomy 32:32-33, the vine is the same as the snake. The wine, which is made of the grapes, the fruit of the vine, represents the poison and the venom of the serpent. Why did the serpent conduct such actions? He attempted to take away what belonged to God, and to become like God.
This is also portrayed in Ezekiel 28. This serpent was the archangel who sinned, just as it says in Isaiah 14. He was one of the four living creatures in the North, South, East, and West, whom God ordained. He was full of wisdom, and he was a perfect seal. Every precious stone adorned him. He was in the Garden of Eden and walked among the fiery stones. However, wickedness was found in him. He proclaimed himself to be God. This entity was good, but he became evil. Since his wickedness kills life, the life of those who receive his word will die.
What are these two types of trees and their fruit?
If one eats the fruit of the tree of life, he will live eternally (Gn 3:22). If one eats the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil, he will die (Gn 2:17). God spoke in Psalm 78, “I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter hidden things, things from of old.” Through coming to Jesus, God spoke hidden things from of old in parables (Mt 13:34-35).
According to the parable in Matthew 13:31-32, if two types of seed are sown, two types of trees grow from them, just like in Genesis 2:9. They become big trees, and birds come and perch in them. A tree symbolizes a person (pastor), and a bird symbolizes a spirit. Jesus was described as a tree in John 15, and his twelve disciples as branches. The twelve branches bore twelve kinds of crops every month. Furthermore, since Jesus referred to himself as the way, the truth, and the life, Jesus is the tree of life in Revelation 22. On the other hand, Babylon in Revelation 18 is the kingdom of demons. This Babylon was the organization of King, Nebuchadnezzar, in Daniel 4:20. This tree bears much fruit. Beasts find shelter under the tree, and birds have nesting places in its branches. What kind of tree is this? It is the tree of the serpent, the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Its fruit, the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, is the same as the venom of the serpent, which kills life if one eats.
Between the fruit of these two trees, the fruit of the tree of life (firstfruit) represents the word of truth, and the people who are born of this word, according to James 1:18. The fruit made of the word is a person who is born of the word. The identity of the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, which is the ancient secret in the Bible, is not a plant in nature. The serpent (the archangel) who betrayed God was the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, and his word was his fruit. In short, the fruit of good and evil is the same as the venom of the serpent. It symbolizes a lie that kills life, as well as people who are born of untruth, the venom of the serpent. This fruit of good and evil is depicted as the fruit which Babylon longed for, in Revelation 18:14. Jesus spoke about this in parables (Mt 13). According to Jesus’ promise (Jn 16:25), the true identity has been made known today. The serpent and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil both symbolize a false pastor.
Why do the scriptures say the seed of animals? Just as it says in Proverb 30:2-3, a person who does not know God and His word is compared to a beast. In other words, God compared people who speak their own words rather than the word of God, to the beast, because the beast does not have the word of God. Ask animals. They neither perceive the word, nor can they speak the word.
Today, those who have not received God’s seed, but have instead received the seed of flesh are the people who have been born of the genes of Adam, the sinner, for the last 6,000 years. The genes of Adam are tainted, the mixture of good and evil. We must know what the Bible tells us, and who we are according to the Bible. We also must perceive what kind of era we are living in according to the Bible.
The next series of this article will speak about Genesis 1, 2, and 3. Let us all enter into the word and be born again of that seed. I am praying for this.

Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is Near!
Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is Near!
Main reference: Mt 4:17
○ Time: Roughly 2,000 years ago
○ Location: Judah and Jerusalem
○ Scribe: Matthew
What kind of place is the kingdom of heaven, which is near? Why does Jesus ask for repentance? Heaven is a spiritual world in which God dwells. Jesus asked for repentance because people must confess the sins which they have committed. Since the heaven which people have longed for has come, people can only welcome and enter into this heaven by confessing their sins and receiving forgiveness for their sins. This is the reason why Jesus asks people to repent.
What is the sin of which the chosen people, the Israelites, must repent? Just like the words of Isaiah, the chosen people, the Israelites, referred to as Judah and Jerusalem, betrayed God and worshiped gentile gods. This was their sin. According to 1 Kings 11, people worshiped gentile gods during the time of Solomon. Furthermore, if you look at Matthew 23, the Israelites appointed the Pharisees, who were snakes in the holy place, and worshiped them during the time of John the Baptist. This was their sin.
☼ From now on, two persons’conversations are used for giving more understanding.
- Did they repent of their sins? Did they believe in and accept God and the pastor whom God sent?
No, they did not.
- What did they do?
They persecuted the pastor whom God sent at the first coming, and in the end, they crucified and killed him.
- What did he preach to the people that they had to believe?
He preached the Old Testament, its fulfillment, and things that were yet to be fulfilled in the future (the New Testament).
- What was the result?
Jesus said this gospel of heaven would be proclaimed to the whole world as a testimony to all people, and then the end would come (Mt 24:14). He also promised to return (Mt 24:29-31). He was arrested and crucified by the Jews; later, he resurrected and ascended to heaven.
- What did Jesus say concerning the situation of his return?
He questioned whether he would see faith on earth (Lk 18:8).
- Will there be persecution again at the second coming?
Yes, there will be persecution! Look at Revelation 11 (vv. 3-12).
- If there is persecution again at the second coming, how will the promises be fulfilled?
In the midst of persecution, during the first coming, Jesus fulfilled the Old Testament (Jn 19:30). The scripture also records, “It is done,” at the second coming (Rv 21:6).
- What did he promise to fulfill? The New Testament!
At the Lord’s second coming, the pastors of God’s kingdom and the pastors of the devil’s kingdom are destined to fight against each other through ecclesiastical authority and words. As the chosen people are defeated, the devil’s pastor takes over the holy temple, and the one who destroys the chosen people stands in the holy place just like during the first coming (Mt 23). At that time, the promised pastor, who belongs to God, appears and fights against the devil’s pastor and overcomes him. At the end, the devil’s pastor and the devil are captured, and the devil is locked up in the Abyss (Rv 19:19-21, Rv 20:1-3).
The promised pastor (the one who overcomes) shouts, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near!” just like it was proclaimed at the first coming. This is the kingdom of the second coming. This is the promised event of the second coming.
- Why is he asking for repentance?
Jesus says, in Matthew 24, if we see the destroyer standing in the holy place, we must flee to the mountains. Today this prophecy has been fulfilled. However, people did not flee, but instead they received the teachings from the devil’s pastors and praised and worshiped them. During Japanese colonization, the Korean people of Christianity bowed down to a Japanese god and praised it. Please look at Revelation 13. People received a mark from the devil’s pastor and worshiped him. They betrayed God, but they were faithful to the devil. This is why the promised pastor is asking for repentance.
- Where has the kingdom of heaven, which is near, come?
Perhaps you might not have seen a Bible verse, which promises this very thing (Rv 3:12). It is the one who fights against and overcomes the devil’s pastor to which God, heaven, and Jesus come to (Rv 3:12), and the one who overcomes sits with them on the throne (Rv 3:21). At the first coming, God dwelt with Jesus, who overcame (Jn 16:33). At the second coming, Jesus comes to the one who overcomes and gives him the blessings recorded in Revelation 2 and 3. Maybe you have not realized this promise. Without this, there is no salvation. You might need to learn all over again. If you have studied the theology from the world, then you must also study the theology of heaven. It is as high as the heavens.
The first battle was between the tabernacle that prepared the way and the destroyers (Rv 13). The second battle took place with the promised pastor (Rv 12).
- Who won?
Take a look at the Bible.
- If one overcomes, what does he do?
There is a certain work he must perform.
- What is it?
He blows the trumpet to the north, south, east, and west and gathers people who are born of God’s seed. He teaches people with the things of heaven again and creates heaven, the leaders and the people of heaven (Rv 11:15, Rv 12:10, Rv 7, Rv 14, Rv 5:9-10). This is how harvesting and sealing takes place and how the creating of God’s kingdom, the new heaven and new earth, is carried out. God promised this work, and He has fulfilled it today at the appointed time. Now you should better understand why the promised pastor is asking for repentance, and what the kingdom of heaven that is near, is referring to.
Now is the time of song gu young shin ho shee jeol (ring out the old and ring in the new, a good season; 송구영신호시절), the time when the universe has completed its orbit. We have the food of eternal life that has come from heaven, which was given to the one who overcomes. If people keep drinking this water, sip by sip, it will lead them to eternal life. I am praying that everyone will eat of it and that they will become the family of heaven and live in heaven together.
Amen!

Revelation in the New Testament, the Promised Kingdom and Pastor
Revelation in the New Testament,
the Promised Kingdom and Pastor
Main references: Rv 1 ~ 22
What is the book of Revelation in the New Testament? What is the promised kingdom, and who is the promised pastor?
The book of Revelation in the New Testament was written by John, the disciple of Jesus, roughly 2,000 years ago. Having been inspired by the holy spirit, John saw a vision and recorded the vision revelation while he was in exile on the island of Patmos. There are a total of 22 chapters in Revelation. Besides Revelation, John also recorded the gospel of John (21 chapters), 1 John (five chapters), 2 John (one chapter), and 3 John (one chapter) in the New Testament.
Revelation, which John recorded, summarizes the entire prophecy in the New Testament. It will be fulfilled without adding to and/or subtracting from it. After Jesus’ ascension, he came back and made known the revelation to John so we would believe when it happens.
Who fulfills this Revelation? Who witnesses it and testifies about it? Regarding the revelation (the sealed scroll) in the Old Testament, God fulfilled it, and Jesus testified about it by receiving the scroll (refer to Is 29:9-14; Hab 2:2-3; Ez 1, 2, 3; Mt 11:27). In regards to Revelation in the New Testament, Jesus receives the scroll (the sealed scroll) from God and fulfills it. He gives the opened scroll to the New John and has him testify about the physical fulfillment, which he sees and hears. Therefore, it is only one pastor, the one who receives the scroll of the revelation, that is able to testify according to what he has seen, heard, and has been commanded to proclaim.
Please look at Revelation 10. Except for the New John, whoever claims to know Revelation and interprets it on his own is a thief and a false pastor. Such false pastors are Satan’s pastors, antichrist, those who practice magic arts, and sorcerers who are to appear in the end of the age. The promised pastor, in contrast, is a person who receives the revelation, the one who sees and hears the entire book of Revelation, and receives a command. At the end of the Spiritual Israelites in the era of the New Testament, one will attain salvation by believing and following the promised pastor, rather than following his own pastor. This was the same at the time of the first coming.
Revelation in the New Testament begins to be fulfilled as the messengers of the seven lampstands appear. At the first coming, John the Baptist, who prepared the way, appeared and later, in the same temple, the promised pastor, Jesus, also appeared in the temple of John the Baptist. This took place according to the prophecy in Malachi 3. Likewise, the messengers of the seven lampstands who prepare the way must appear first at the time of Revelation. And then the Nicolaitans, Satan’s pastors, invade their tabernacle. At that time, the promised pastor (the one who overcomes) appears in the temple of the tabernacle that prepares the way. This is the beginning of the fulfillment of Revelation chapters 1, 2, and 3.
The messengers of the seven golden lampstands that prepare the way at the second coming are the pastors who represent Spiritual Israel at the end times.
The pastors and the prophecy of the New Testament are only proclaimed until the seven stars (messengers) which prepare the way appear. Therefore, the betrayal of these representative seven messengers indicates the betrayal of the Spiritual Israelites. Furthermore, serpents, the Nicolaitans, who are similar to the snake-like Pharisees at the first coming (Mt 23:33), are the destroyers at the time of the New Testament’s fulfillment. On the other hand, a person who sends the letters asking for repentance to the seven messengers who prepare the way is the promised pastor (the one who overcomes) and the savior.
The events of Revelation record the events of these three entities. God’s people who prepare the way are the seven messengers, while the pastors of the dragon (Satan) are the seven heads and the beast with ten horns (seven pastors and ten elders, who are equivalent to the priests and the elders at the first coming). In addition, the savior begins with the twelve disciples, that is, the twelve tribes, just like at the first coming.
The pastors of the dragon invade the tabernacle of the messengers who prepare the way, and they entice the saints of the tabernacle to receive the mark on their foreheads and hands, and to worship them (Rv 13). These pastors destroy the tabernacle just as portrayed in Matthew 24. These are the actions of betrayal and destruction, and the end of the Spiritual Israelites.
Since that time, the time of the first coming, God’s gospel of the revelation of the New Testament has been proclaimed (Lk 16:16), and wheat-like saints are harvested and created into God’s new kingdom. They are the sealed 144,000 of the twelve tribes (priests) and the great multitude whose sins are washed away (people). This event takes place in Revelation 7 after the event in Revelation 6.
Let us examine this more precisely.
There are two battles in Revelation. The first battle takes place between the seven stars and the dragon’s seven heads and ten horns (Rv 13). The dragon wins this first battle, whereas the saints of the tabernacle of heaven are defeated and destroyed. In the second battle, the male child who is born from the woman clothed with the sun, moon, and stars, and his brothers overcome the group of the dragon with the blood of Jesus and the words of their testimony. As a result, salvation and the kingdom of God are able to come (Rv 12:10-11). The one who overcomes receives the promises of Revelation 2 and 3. There is no salvation and no eternal life without the promises of Revelation 2 and 3.
Do you know the promises of Revelation 2 and 3? By overcoming, that which was lost to the devil can be taken back, and God, who comes, can govern the entire world of mankind. Before this work of overcoming, the devil has been controlling and reigning over the world, and people have married the devil (Rv 18). However, when one fights against the devil and overcomes him, God can govern, and the wedding banquet with Jesus, the Lamb, and the wedding itself can take place (Rv 19).
The events of Revelation point to the warfare between God and the devil. As those who belong to God overcome, salvation and God’s new kingdom can come (Rv 21:1-7).
Revelation is a book of prophecy. Its fulfillment is the event which occurs during the time of Jesus’ second coming. Just as the Old Testament was fulfilled at the time of the first coming, Revelation in the New Testament is fulfilled without adding to and/or subtracting from it (Rv 21:6). At the time of the fulfillment, the word of prophecy becomes the embodiment, and the flesh entities (actual realities) appear. This is what Jesus asks us to see and believe (Jn 14:29). John saw a vision during the time of prophecy, but at the time of the fulfillment, the New John (the one who overcomes) witnesses the physical fulfillment from Revelation chapter 1 through chapter 22, and he receives the opened scroll. According to the command he receives, he is sent to the churches to give the testimony just as it says in Revelation 22:16. Therefore, this testimony is the truth.
The promised pastor who is sent [by Jesus] knows the physical entities of the entire book of Revelation. Except for the promised pastor, whoever interprets Revelation according to his own thoughts is a deceptive liar. I pray that everyone will listen to the promised pastor and attain their hope.
If one desires to be part of God’s promised kingdom and receive heaven and eternal life, he first needs to equip himself with the six qualifications below.
① He must be born again of God’s seed.
② He must be harvested at the time of harvest (time of second coming).
③ He must be sealed.
④ He must not add to and/or subtract from the prophecy and the fulfillment of Revelation.
⑤ He must belong to the twelve tribes.
⑥ His name must be recorded in the book of life.
One will attain salvation only by keeping these six commands.
I pray that everyone will hear and perceive the words of the pastor promised in the New Testament, and attain their hope.

Therefore, the betrayal of these representative seven messengers indicates the betrayal of the Spiritual Israelites. Furthermore, serpents, the Nicolaitans, who are similar to the snake-like Pharisees at the first coming (Mt 23:33), are the destroyers at the time of the New Testament’s fulfillment. On the other hand, a person who sends the letters asking for repentance to the seven messengers who prepare the way is the promised pastor (the one who overcomes) and the savior.
The events of Revelation record the events of these three entities. God’s people who prepare the way are the seven messengers, while the pastors of the dragon (Satan) are the seven heads and the beast with ten horns (seven pastors and ten elders, who are equivalent to the priests and the elders at the first coming). In addition, the savior begins with the twelve disciples, that is, the twelve tribes, just like at the first coming.
The pastors of the dragon invade the tabernacle of the messengers who prepare the way, and they entice the saints of the tabernacle to receive the mark on their foreheads and hands, and to worship them (Rv 13). These pastors destroy the tabernacle just as portrayed in Matthew 24. These are the actions of betrayal and destruction, and the end of the Spiritual Israelites.
Since that time, the time of the first coming, God’s gospel of the revelation of the New Testament has been proclaimed (Lk 16:16), and wheat-like saints are harvested and created into God’s new kingdom. They are the sealed 144,000 of the twelve tribes (priests) and the great multitude whose sins are washed away (people). This event takes place in Revelation 7 after the event in Revelation 6.
Let us examine this more precisely.
There are two battles in Revelation. The first battle takes place between the seven stars and the dragon’s seven heads and ten horns (Rv 13). The dragon wins this first battle, whereas the saints of the tabernacle of heaven are defeated and destroyed. In the second battle, the male child who is born from the woman clothed with the sun, moon, and stars, and his brothers overcome the group of the dragon with the blood of Jesus and the words of their testimony. As a result, salvation and the kingdom of God are able to come (Rv 12:10-11). The one who overcomes receives the promises of Revelation 2 and 3. There is no salvation and no eternal life without the promises of Revelation 2 and 3.
Do you know the promises of Revelation 2 and 3? By overcoming, that which was lost to the devil can be taken back, and God, who comes, can govern the entire world of mankind. Before this work of overcoming, the devil has been controlling and reigning over the world, and people have married the devil (Rv 18). However, when one fights against the devil and overcomes him, God can govern, and the wedding banquet with Jesus, the Lamb, and the wedding itself can take place (Rv 19).
The events of Revelation point to the warfare between God and the devil. As those who belong to God overcome, salvation and God’s new kingdom can come (Rv 21:1-7).
Revelation is a book of prophecy. Its fulfillment is the event which occurs during the time of Jesus’ second coming. Just as the Old Testament was fulfilled at the time of the first coming, Revelation in the New Testament is fulfilled without adding to and/or subtracting from it (Rv 21:6). At the time of the fulfillment, the word of prophecy becomes the embodiment, and the flesh entities (actual realities) appear. This is what Jesus asks us to see and believe (Jn 14:29). John saw a vision during the time of prophecy, but at the time of the fulfillment, the New John (the one who overcomes) witnesses the physical fulfillment from Revelation chapter 1 through chapter 22, and he receives the opened scroll. According to the command he receives, he is sent to the churches to give the testimony just as it says in Revelation 22:16. Therefore, this testimony is the truth.
The promised pastor who is sent [by Jesus] knows the physical entities of the entire book of Revelation. Except for the promised pastor, whoever interprets Revelation according to his own thoughts is a deceptive liar. I pray that everyone will listen to the promised pastor and attain their hope.
If one desires to be part of God’s promised kingdom and receive heaven and eternal life, he first needs to equip himself with the six qualifications below.
① He must be born again of God’s seed.
② He must be harvested at the time of harvest (time of second coming).
③ He must be sealed.
④ He must not add to and/or subtract from the prophecy and the fulfillment of Revelation.
⑤ He must belong to the twelve tribes.
⑥ His name must be recorded in the book of life.
One will attain salvation only by keeping these six commands.
I pray that everyone will hear and perceive the words of the pastor promised in the New Testament, and attain their hope.

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!

The God and the Pastors of Persecution and Curses
The God and the Pastors of Persecution and Curses
Main reference: Acts 7:51-53
Who persecutes and curses? Who receive persecution and curses? Why do they persecute and curse others? Whoever persecutes and curses do such work as they receive the spirit of persecution, and as they are driven by the will of that spirit. They persecute and curse people who receive God’s holy spirit. Why do they do that? The evil spirit persecutes the holy spirit because the holy spirit reveals the identity of the evil spirit. In addition, the evil spirit curses the holy spirit and even labels it as an evil spirit in order to cover up their identity.
The scriptures record that there is one and only God, the creator, and there is also Satan, one of the archangels who betrayed God although he was a created being. The war between these two spirits is the history of the 6,000 years of the history of the Bible. These two spirits have been working through the people who belong to each of them. It first started with the event of deception between the serpent and Eve.
God chose prophets to speak his word in order to save this world, which has been deceived by Satan. The Bible is the book that records the word they received. God allowed us to know the work of God and the work of Satan by looking at the word of the Bible. For the last 6,000 years, people have been born of the genes of Adam and Eve, the genes of good and evil, because they were deceived by the serpent, Satan, and they ate the fruit of good and evil. For this reason, everyone has good and evil, and people are the children of good and evil.
God the creator has been working to remove evil from people who have good and evil. He sowed God’s seed so that people would be born again of it. People can be truly born again when they are born again of God’s seed.
Satan, on the other hand, has been plagiarizing God’s work, proclaiming himself to be God. Just like Jesus in the New Testament, Satan, too, started to sow his own seed (Mt 13:24-30). Just as God planted his seed through Jesus, Satan planted Satan’s seed through the Pharisees. Satan proclaims himself to be God. He deceived people about his identity in such a way, and he planted his own seed to people and made them to be his own children. This is why John 17:3 uses the term, the only true God. In fact, the serpent himself was the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, and yet he masqueraded himself to be the tree of life that would not die. This was how the serpent deceived Eve. God’s true pastor, Jesus, referred to himself as the true vine.
God started his work with the true word, while Satan started with lies. As God and God’s pastors appear, Satan mobilizes his crowd and blindfolds people. They lie and persecute. Why do they conduct such actions? It is because their true identities will be revealed otherwise.
God’s commands in Matthew chapters 5 and 6 teach love and truth. Let us examine who the devil and his pastors are based on the scriptures below.
[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.
This is the testimony of Stephen.
[Matthew 23:29-36]
Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You build tombs for the prophets and decorate the graves of the righteous. 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.
This is the testimony of Jesus.
[Matthew 27:20-25]
But the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowd to ask for Barabbas and to have Jesus executed. “Which of the two do you want me to release to you?” asked the governor. “Barabbas,” they answered. “What shall I do, then, with Jesus who is called Christ?” Pilate asked. They all answered, “Crucify him!” “Why? What crime has he committed?” asked Pilate. But they shouted all the louder, “Crucify him!” When Pilate saw that he was getting nowhere, but that instead an uproar was starting, he took water and washed his hands in front of the crowd. “I am innocent of this man’s blood,” he said. “It is your responsibility!” All the people answered, “Let his blood be on us and on our children!”
This is the testimony of Matthew—what he saw and heard at that time.
[John 15:18-21]
“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.
This is the word of Jesus.
[John 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.
This is the word of Jesus.
[Matthew 5:10-12]
Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. “Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and false 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.
This is the word of Jesus.
[Luke 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!”
This is also the word of Jesus.
Through the Bible references listed above, we have seen the results of persecution and the persecutors. Is today’s situation not the same?
Before the world of Jesus, there were Confucius, Siddhartha, and many pastors from Moses’ time in this world. The priests and elders killed Jesus and his disciples, as well as the old prophets. It is not wrong to say that the devil, who opposed God, was inside the corrupt pastors, who claimed to believe in God, rather than in non-believers.
The scriptures show that many people (chosen people) die one-third at a time at the time of Revelation’s fulfillment (Rv 8). Who kill them? What type of people does the devil enter into and work? According to the Bible, it is neither non-believers nor people from other religions. It is the corrupt pastors from the previous generation. For this reason, God prophesied to bring the corrupt era to an end and to create a new era. At that time when the new era is created, God destroys the tenants of the vineyard, which represent the previous pastors, and rents the vineyard to other tenants, just as prophesied in Luke 20 (Mt 21:33-41). He also promised that the kingdom of heaven would be taken away from them, and that it would be given to a people who would produce its fruit (Mt 21:43).
Revelation 21 records the era (world) that is passing away and the era (world) that is coming. Which era must we belong to in order to attain salvation? If one sees with eyes and hears with ears, and yet does not understand, can he receive salvation?
The person that all the saints on earth must meet now is the one who receives the food of heaven, manna, the white stone to judge, the iron scepter to rule all nations, and the one who sits on Jesus’ throne—the pastor whom God, heaven, and Jesus have descended upon (Rv 3:12, 21)—according to Revelation 2 and 3. This is the pastor whom God has promised. At the end times of religion, if one follows his own pastor, he will not attain salvation. It is only when one believes and follows the promised pastor, that he will gain salvation and heaven. This promised pastor is the one who overcomes who testifies about the fulfillment of the New Testament. People think that they will attain salvation and go to heaven, just by believing in the words of their own pastors and following them. They think such a way because they do not know the Bible and the will of God (Refer to Mt 22:29). God and the Bible, however, speak differently.
Look at Jesus at the first coming. Whoever followed their own pastors became the ones who opposed God and Jesus, but even if someone was a tax collector, he attained salvation because he followed the promised pastor (Mt 10:2-3; Lk 5:27-28; Lk 18:10-14).
All must realize that only by following the promised pastor at the second coming, will there be salvation for people. It is because God, heaven, and the food of eternal life all come upon the promised pastor. Will there be salvation in a place where there is no God and no food of eternal life? How can one say he does not understand this?
The end of the age is the time when one generation passes away. It is the time when a new era is created through the new promised pastor. No one can come to the Lord except through the pastor promised in the New Testament. Please look at Revelation 3:12 and 3:21 and understand this.

But the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowd to ask for Barabbas and to have Jesus executed. “Which of the two do you want me to release to you?” asked the governor. “Barabbas,” they answered. “What shall I do, then, with Jesus who is called Christ?” Pilate asked. They all answered, “Crucify him!” “Why? What crime has he committed?” asked Pilate. But they shouted all the louder, “Crucify him!” When Pilate saw that he was getting nowhere, but that instead an uproar was starting, he took water and washed his hands in front of the crowd. “I am innocent of this man’s blood,” he said. “It is your responsibility!” All the people answered, “Let his blood be on us and on our children!”
This is the testimony of Matthew—what he saw and heard at that time.
[John 15:18-21]
“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.
This is the word of Jesus.
[John 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.
This is the word of Jesus.
[Matthew 5:10-12]
Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. “Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and false 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.
This is the word of Jesus.
[Luke 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!”
This is also the word of Jesus.
Through the Bible references listed above, we have seen the results of persecution and the persecutors. Is today’s situation not the same?
Before the world of Jesus, there were Confucius, Siddhartha, and many pastors from Moses’ time in this world. The priests and elders killed Jesus and his disciples, as well as the old prophets. It is not wrong to say that the devil, who opposed God, was inside the corrupt pastors, who claimed to believe in God, rather than in non-believers.
The scriptures show that many people (chosen people) die one-third at a time at the time of Revelation’s fulfillment (Rv 8). Who kill them? What type of people does the devil enter into and work? According to the Bible, it is neither non-believers nor people from other religions. It is the corrupt pastors from the previous generation. For this reason, God prophesied to bring the corrupt era to an end and to create a new era. At that time when the new era is created, God destroys the tenants of the vineyard, which represent the previous pastors, and rents the vineyard to other tenants, just as prophesied in Luke 20 (Mt 21:33-41). He also promised that the kingdom of heaven would be taken away from them, and that it would be given to a people who would produce its fruit (Mt 21:43).
Revelation 21 records the era (world) that is passing away and the era (world) that is coming. Which era must we belong to in order to attain salvation? If one sees with eyes and hears with ears, and yet does not understand, can he receive salvation?
The person that all the saints on earth must meet now is the one who receives the food of heaven, manna, the white stone to judge, the iron scepter to rule all nations, and the one who sits on Jesus’ throne—the pastor whom God, heaven, and Jesus have descended upon (Rv 3:12, 21)—according to Revelation 2 and 3. This is the pastor whom God has promised. At the end times of religion, if one follows his own pastor, he will not attain salvation. It is only when one believes and follows the promised pastor, that he will gain salvation and heaven. This promised pastor is the one who overcomes who testifies about the fulfillment of the New Testament. People think that they will attain salvation and go to heaven, just by believing in the words of their own pastors and following them. They think such a way because they do not know the Bible and the will of God (Refer to Mt 22:29). God and the Bible, however, speak differently.
Look at Jesus at the first coming. Whoever followed their own pastors became the ones who opposed God and Jesus, but even if someone was a tax collector, he attained salvation because he followed the promised pastor (Mt 10:2-3; Lk 5:27-28; Lk 18:10-14).
All must realize that only by following the promised pastor at the second coming, will there be salvation for people. It is because God, heaven, and the food of eternal life all come upon the promised pastor. Will there be salvation in a place where there is no God and no food of eternal life? How can one say he does not understand this?
The end of the age is the time when one generation passes away. It is the time when a new era is created through the new promised pastor. No one can come to the Lord except through the pastor promised in the New Testament. Please look at Revelation 3:12 and 3:21 and understand this.

If God and Heaven Come to Korea …
If God and Heaven Come to Korea …
Main references: Rv 21, Rv 3
※ This article is written in a conversational format in order to help understand those who have questions concerning persecution- Who is God? What kind of kingdom of heaven?
- God is the creator of heaven and earth (Gn 1:1; Jn 1:1-4). He is the one and only Lord (Is 37:16; Mk 12:29; Jn 5:44, 17:3), and he is spirit (Jn 4:24). Heaven is God’s kingdom, and the world of the spirits who belong to God.
- God and heaven left the world that he created after Adam’s fall.
- Why did they leave?
- It was because of the sin of Adam, who was created by God.
- What type of sin did he commit?
- Adam believed in the words of the serpent, who was the archangel that had betrayed (refer to Ez 28), and he ate the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil (in short, the fruit of good and evil). As a result of eating that fruit, he became good and evil. His sin, therefore, was to want to be like God, just like the serpent. Because of his sin, all things in heaven and on earth that were once entrusted to Adam as an inheritance became the possession of the serpent. Since Adam believed and followed the serpent more than God, God left the world.
- Who, then, is in control of the world?
- It is the serpent, that is Satan. Please read Matthew 4:8-9. Did the devil not say that all the kingdoms of the world were his? God left the world, and Satan came to rule over it instead. This devil is the serpent according to Revelation 12:9 and Revelation 20:2.
- What is the fruit of good and evil, which Adam ate?
- The fruit of good and evil is the fruit of the spirit, which is the ideology of both good and evil. Since the serpent betrayed God’s affiliation and proclaimed himself to be God, he became evil after being good, did he not? Thus, the fruit of good and evil represents the words mixed with good and evil. [You, foolish person,] Listen carefully! You have read James 1:18, right? How did people become the firstfruits?
- Through the word.
- Please look at John 15:1-5 as well. Jesus is the true vine, and the disciples are the branches. Many fruits are born from those branches, right? How many fruits?
- Twelve kinds of fruit every month (Rv 22:1-2).
- Have you not seen it in the Bible? Furthermore, Babylon is the kingdom of demons (Rv 18:2). The king of Babylon, Nebuchadnezzar, was symbolized by a tree. Its top touched the sky, its branches are visible even to the ends of the earth. It has abundant fruit, and birds come to rest in the tree. It also gives a shelter to the beasts of the field (i.e. wild beasts). This tree, in fact, refers to a person, the king, Nebuchadnezzar (Dn 4:20-22).
Should we take a look at the tree of the serpent? Listen carefully, you foolish person! Deuteronomy 32:32-33 makes a reference to Sodom’s wild vines (refer to Is 5:2-4). This is the tree of the serpent. Its grapes and wine symbolize the venom of serpents and the poison of cobras. If one eats it, he will die. It was the serpent that gave the fruit of good and evil to Adam and Eve. Do you follow me? The fact that Adam ate the fruit of good and evil, which God had formerly told him not to eat, shows that he listened to the word of the serpent and accepted it. This was his sin. We have gone too far, so let us get back to the main issue. Don’t try talking to me. It confuses me, OK?
- Let me ask you one more time.
- What is it?
- When and where will heaven and God come?
- First the world has to be renewed. In order for the world to be renewed, God and the promised pastor have to appear, and they have to fight against the devil and overcome him (refer to Rv 12:10-11). After overcoming the devil, God brings to an end the previous corrupt generation through the promised pastor, and afterwards he harvests and seals people to create God’s new kingdom, the twelve tribes. When God’s kingdom is established here on earth just as it is done in heaven, God and heaven descend upon that place.
- Where is that place?
- Why do you ask? Do you want to go there?
- Yes, I do.
- If you do not understand anything, you will be thrown outside even if you go there.
- I still want to go.
- Mr. Foolish, you first need to be qualified for going there. God is the foundation of all blessings. He is sovereign over life, death, blessings and curses, and he is the creator of heaven and earth. If you are not qualified for meeting a president of the earth, how can you meet God, the creator? If you truly want to meet God, you need to be born again.
- How can I be born again?
- You can be born again of God’s seed. In doing so, you can become God’s son and become the same family of God who can live with him. Do you understand this?
- Is that true? But my question is about where God and heaven are coming to.
- It is actually the Republic of Korea.
- What will happen if God and heaven come to Korea?
- Mr. Stonehead, listen carefully. Just as I spoke earlier, do you remember I said that God and heaven are coming to the kingdom of God, which is created here on earth by harvesting and sealing people? Therefore, a saint cannot come to the kingdom of God unless he is harvested and sealed. At a time when God’s kingdom is created here on earth, people are divided into the people of heaven and the people of the earth. As God and heaven descend upon this world, the spiritual realm becomes one with the physical realm. It becomes the world where spirits and flesh are united as one. Korea to which God and heaven have come, will become the best nation in the world, which will shine like the light of heaven. It will become a place where all nations come and worship. It will be the kingdom of God and the people of heaven, the family of God, in the midst of this world. Thus, Korea will be the most blessed country.
- What will happen to the ones who persecute and curse today?
- They cannot breath.
- If they cannot breath, what will happen to them?
- Ask those people who are not breathing and see what they answer. Even if the pastors of Korea conduct evil deeds just like the pastors during Jesus’ first coming, the leaders and the politicians must recognize the promised pastor and make him known to the whole world. The promised pastor is the boast of Korea. He is an outstanding person and the light by which all nations can live. There is no greater or more valuable than this. There is no better boast than this. Through the promised pastor, Korea becomes the best country, and Koreans become the greatest people. Korea is the country where God and heaven have come to.
- Through whom have they been able to come?
- They have been able to come through the one who overcomes promised in the New Testament (refer to Rv 3:12). The one who overcomes has become the place where the holy spirits of heaven, angels, and God’s throne are situated (Rv 14, Rv 21). There is no greater blessing than this. This is the greatest country in heaven and on earth.
If Korea understands this quickly, the words mentioned above will be fulfilled soon. If Koreans want to be blessed, they should announce the glory of God and the light of life by making known the one who overcomes, the promised pastor, to the whole world. Today is the time when the Bible is mastered for the first time in the entire history of mankind. Thus, it is a gigantic work that testifies about how the promises in the New Testament are all fulfilled. It is not the act of killing, but the act of bringing people to life.
God and heaven have come to our country, Korea. That which the whole world has been awaiting and looking forward to has been accomplished. God and heaven have come according to the promises. This is the hope of God, hope of religion, and the hope of believers. Korea will become the kingdom of God out of all nations. It will become the kingdom of priests and the holy nation, the people of heaven.
I pray that you will understand and believe in this, and that you will attain salvation.

Those who Persecute and Those who are Persecuted
Those who Persecute and Those who are Persecuted
Main reference: Mt 5:11-12
※ This article is written in a conversational format in order to help understand those who have questions concerning persecution.
- Who are the ones who persecute? Who are the ones who are persecuted?
- Those who persecute are part of the devil, whereas those who are persecuted are part of God. Examining the 6,000 years of biblical history, the prophets, apostles, and Jesus whom God chose and sent were persecuted, beat to death, or were crucified by false pastors (Mt 5:12, Mt 23:34-35; Lk 18:32-33; Acts 7:51-53). Who are the false pastors? They are the pastors from the previous corrupt generation. They are the pastors who are controlled by the spirit of Satan. Just like Adam and Eve, Satan was the source that caused people to know good and evil.
At the first coming, God, angels, and heaven came to Jesus. Who persecuted and killed God and Jesus who came at that time? It was the chosen people among all peoples of the world, the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the ones who were led out of Egypt through Moses, and people who kept the law. They were the high priests and elders, and their people, the Israelites. They were Judah and Jerusalem. Concerning this, God stated in Isaiah 1, “I reared children and brought them up, but they have rebelled against me.” It also says in John 1, “The true light that gives light to every man was coming into the world. He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him.” Not only did they refuse to accept Jesus, but they even persecuted him, labeled him as a heretic, and killed him at the end. Who were the true heretics? Who were the persecutors and who were part of the devil? Were they non-believers or believers? Were they not pastors who proudly claimed to be the orthodoxy? They thought of themselves as people who could go to heaven, and who were faithful to God and served him well. With those thoughts, they offered sacrifices and offerings to God. This was the event that took place at the first coming of God and Jesus.
- What does the scriptures testify regarding the Lord’s second coming?
- Jesus explained this well in Matthew 24 and Revelation in the New Testament.
- What did he speak about?
- He spoke about the end of the Spiritual Israelites.
- How did he speak about it?
- Look at Matthew 24 and Revelation 13. Look at Luke 18:8 as well. Matthew 24 and Revelation 13 portray how the tabernacle of the chosen people was destroyed by the gentile pastors of the devil, and how the saints of the tabernacle received the mark from the devil’s pastors on their foreheads and hands, and worshiped the devil. Furthermore, the pastors of the devil even have persecuted and cursed the Lord of the second coming. Do you understand? Is this not hard to believe? According to Luke 18:8, did Jesus not say, “Will he find faith on the earth?” I sometimes call you, Mr. Foolish, but the term I use is still very nice comparing to the words that those persecutors use.
Would you like to listen further regarding the end of Spiritual Israel? Do you know what the end of the age means? During Jesus’ first coming, roughly 2,000 years ago, the Physical Israelites came to an end (the end of the age), and the Spiritual Israelites started through Jesus. This Spiritual Israelites have existed for about 2,000 years up to this present time. Again Spiritual Israel started through Jesus’ first coming. At the Lord’s second coming, however, Revelation in the New Testament speaks about the end of the Spiritual Israelites.
The sun, moon, and stars symbolize Israel (Gn 37:9-11). According to Matthew 24 and Revelation 6:12-14, the sun, moon, and stars go dark and fall from the sky to the ground. This shows how they are part of heaven, and yet, they return to dust, that is, mere flesh. In fact, this is the end of the age. Why? They face their end due to their corruption. They—the Korean Christian Council (CCK), which loves money, and the Communion Churches in Korea (CCIK), which emerged from the CCK—still claim to be the orthodoxy and label others as heretics. Such words, however, are lies in order to cover up their identities. They say such things because the spirit of the devil, whose native language is lies, has entered into them.
- What will take place when they meet their end?
- Listen carefully ,Mr. Foolish. The corrupt Spiritual Israelites, the first heaven, are judged just as shown in Revelation 6. They come to an end like the sun, moon, and stars that go dark and fall. After their end, a new kingdom, the New Spiritual Israelites, are created again by sealing people in Revelation 7. This same event is also described in different chapters throughout Revelation. For example, the tabernacle of the first heaven is destroyed by the gentiles in Revelation 13. They receive the mark and worship the gentiles. They become the kingdom and people of the gentile nation. Afterwards, the sealed 12 tribes of God’s new kingdom, are created again in Revelation 14. Likewise, the chosen people ate Babylon’s fruit of good and evil, which is the wine of adulteries, and married the devil in Revelation 18. Afterwards, they are invited to the wedding banquet and marry Jesus, the Lamb, in Revelation 19. Do you understand this?
These are the events regarding the first heaven and the second heaven. Revelation 6 illustrates the world that is passing away, which is Spiritual Israel that is coming to an end. In contrast, Revelation 7 speaks about the New Spiritual Israelites, which are created again. Revelation 13 is concerning the tabernacle that is destroyed by the gentiles and comes to an end (Spiritual Israel), whereas Revelation 14 is concerning New Spiritual Israel that is created again as people are harvested. Furthermore, Revelation 18 illustrates the marriage with Babylon’s devil, whereas Revelation 19 illustrates the marriage with Jesus, the Lamb. Which of these two would you like to go to?
- Is that really what will happen?
- You do not believe in the Bible and God?
- Yes, I do.
- Then, please believe. I only speak according to the Bible and the word of God.
- Where are those two places?
- It is the Christian Council of Korea and Shincheonji. After the Christian Council of Korea comes to an end, the kingdom that is newly created is Shincheonji. Please go to the Christian Council of Korea and then go to Shincheonji, and verify these two places, Mr. Foolish. Look at these two places with the Bible as a basis. Some places believe in the teachings and the words of men. Those foolish people mock the word of God, and they do not even try to listen to it. If a test is given to those people with the most essential content from the Bible, they would probably be unable to get three right answers out of 100 questions. They still claim to believe in God and Jesus. How can people who believe in men (their own pastors) and men’s words understand God’s word and its meaning?
They are the people of the world. We, however, are born of the seed of God. We have been sealed, and we are the people of heaven whose names are written in heaven. They pretend to know without seeing their own shamefulness. They think of men’s doctrines as the best teachings, but the God they call as God is a false God (Jn 8:41-44). It is the God according to 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 and Ezekiel 28. It is an antichrist. Do you understand?
- Why don’t you take a test with the Bible?
- Yes, you are right. Next time I am going to give a test with a few easy questions from the content of the Bible. The devil conducts the actions of the devil, and God carries out the actions of God.
- Do you think they will be able to write out the answers?
- We should give it a try. Will people who call themselves Jesus and God not know what they have said?
- Will they realize their wrongdoings?
- If they understand, they will repent. I will still try to be a friend of those foolish people. Once you understand, knowing the Bible and going to heaven are easy. One just needs to be born again and becomes a new creature. Eternal life and eternal punishment are not to be taken lightly.

It was the chosen people among all peoples of the world, the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the ones who were led out of Egypt through Moses, and people who kept the law. They were the high priests and elders, and their people, the Israelites. They were Judah and Jerusalem. Concerning this, God stated in Isaiah 1, “I reared children and brought them up, but they have rebelled against me.” It also says in John 1, “The true light that gives light to every man was coming into the world. He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him.” Not only did they refuse to accept Jesus, but they even persecuted him, labeled him as a heretic, and killed him at the end. Who were the true heretics? Who were the persecutors and who were part of the devil? Were they non-believers or believers? Were they not pastors who proudly claimed to be the orthodoxy? They thought of themselves as people who could go to heaven, and who were faithful to God and served him well. With those thoughts, they offered sacrifices and offerings to God. This was the event that took place at the first coming of God and Jesus.
- What does the scriptures testify regarding the Lord’s second coming?
- Jesus explained this well in Matthew 24 and Revelation in the New Testament.
- What did he speak about?
- He spoke about the end of the Spiritual Israelites.
- How did he speak about it?
- Look at Matthew 24 and Revelation 13. Look at Luke 18:8 as well. Matthew 24 and Revelation 13 portray how the tabernacle of the chosen people was destroyed by the gentile pastors of the devil, and how the saints of the tabernacle received the mark from the devil’s pastors on their foreheads and hands, and worshiped the devil. Furthermore, the pastors of the devil even have persecuted and cursed the Lord of the second coming. Do you understand? Is this not hard to believe? According to Luke 18:8, did Jesus not say, “Will he find faith on the earth?” I sometimes call you, Mr. Foolish, but the term I use is still very nice comparing to the words that those persecutors use.
Would you like to listen further regarding the end of Spiritual Israel? Do you know what the end of the age means? During Jesus’ first coming, roughly 2,000 years ago, the Physical Israelites came to an end (the end of the age), and the Spiritual Israelites started through Jesus. This Spiritual Israelites have existed for about 2,000 years up to this present time. Again Spiritual Israel started through Jesus’ first coming. At the Lord’s second coming, however, Revelation in the New Testament speaks about the end of the Spiritual Israelites.
The sun, moon, and stars symbolize Israel (Gn 37:9-11). According to Matthew 24 and Revelation 6:12-14, the sun, moon, and stars go dark and fall from the sky to the ground. This shows how they are part of heaven, and yet, they return to dust, that is, mere flesh. In fact, this is the end of the age. Why? They face their end due to their corruption. They—the Korean Christian Council (CCK), which loves money, and the Communion Churches in Korea (CCIK), which emerged from the CCK—still claim to be the orthodoxy and label others as heretics. Such words, however, are lies in order to cover up their identities. They say such things because the spirit of the devil, whose native language is lies, has entered into them.
- What will take place when they meet their end?
- Listen carefully ,Mr. Foolish. The corrupt Spiritual Israelites, the first heaven, are judged just as shown in Revelation 6. They come to an end like the sun, moon, and stars that go dark and fall. After their end, a new kingdom, the New Spiritual Israelites, are created again by sealing people in Revelation 7. This same event is also described in different chapters throughout Revelation. For example, the tabernacle of the first heaven is destroyed by the gentiles in Revelation 13. They receive the mark and worship the gentiles. They become the kingdom and people of the gentile nation. Afterwards, the sealed 12 tribes of God’s new kingdom, are created again in Revelation 14. Likewise, the chosen people ate Babylon’s fruit of good and evil, which is the wine of adulteries, and married the devil in Revelation 18. Afterwards, they are invited to the wedding banquet and marry Jesus, the Lamb, in Revelation 19. Do you understand this?
These are the events regarding the first heaven and the second heaven. Revelation 6 illustrates the world that is passing away, which is Spiritual Israel that is coming to an end. In contrast, Revelation 7 speaks about the New Spiritual Israelites, which are created again. Revelation 13 is concerning the tabernacle that is destroyed by the gentiles and comes to an end (Spiritual Israel), whereas Revelation 14 is concerning New Spiritual Israel that is created again as people are harvested. Furthermore, Revelation 18 illustrates the marriage with Babylon’s devil, whereas Revelation 19 illustrates the marriage with Jesus, the Lamb. Which of these two would you like to go to?
- Is that really what will happen?
- You do not believe in the Bible and God?
- Yes, I do.
- Then, please believe. I only speak according to the Bible and the word of God.
- Where are those two places?
- It is the Christian Council of Korea and Shincheonji. After the Christian Council of Korea comes to an end, the kingdom that is newly created is Shincheonji. Please go to the Christian Council of Korea and then go to Shincheonji, and verify these two places, Mr. Foolish. Look at these two places with the Bible as a basis. Some places believe in the teachings and the words of men. Those foolish people mock the word of God, and they do not even try to listen to it. If a test is given to those people with the most essential content from the Bible, they would probably be unable to get three right answers out of 100 questions. They still claim to believe in God and Jesus. How can people who believe in men (their own pastors) and men’s words understand God’s word and its meaning?
They are the people of the world. We, however, are born of the seed of God. We have been sealed, and we are the people of heaven whose names are written in heaven. They pretend to know without seeing their own shamefulness. They think of men’s doctrines as the best teachings, but the God they call as God is a false God (Jn 8:41-44). It is the God according to 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 and Ezekiel 28. It is an antichrist. Do you understand?
- Why don’t you take a test with the Bible?
- Yes, you are right. Next time I am going to give a test with a few easy questions from the content of the Bible. The devil conducts the actions of the devil, and God carries out the actions of God.
- Do you think they will be able to write out the answers?
- We should give it a try. Will people who call themselves Jesus and God not know what they have said?
- Will they realize their wrongdoings?
- If they understand, they will repent. I will still try to be a friend of those foolish people. Once you understand, knowing the Bible and going to heaven are easy. One just needs to be born again and becomes a new creature. Eternal life and eternal punishment are not to be taken lightly.
