34th Annual Commemoration of the Establishment of Shincheonji Church

On Wednesday, 14th March 2018, Jamsil Dorm stadium hosted the 34th Annual Commemoration of the Establishment of Shincheonji Church in Seoul, Republic of Korea, that was attended by some 20,000 congregation members of the 12 tribes. Shortly after, JoongAng Daily - one of the three main English-language newspapers in Korea that is sold in conjunction with the New York Times - published an article outlining the significance of the Commemorative Service.

These 12 tribes are those promised in the Bible (Revelation 7:4-8). Also in attendance was ManHee Lee, the ‘One Who Overcomes’, who is the Promised Pastor of our times today (Revelation 3:12, 21). Directly appointed by Jesus to testify the physical fulfilment of Revelation (Revelation 1:17; 22:16), he is the only person who has seen and heard all the events of the 22 chapters of the Book of Revelation (Revelation 22:8) and is the instrument through which God and Jesus are working today to help fulfil God’s ultimate purpose of achieving world peace and eternal life (Revelation 21:4). For over an hour, the Promised Pastor delivered a sermon outlining the four main contents of the Bible - history, instruction, prophecy and fulfilment - that included testimony of the physical fulfilment of Revelation.

In 2018, Shincheonji Church has nearly 200,000 congregation members in 135 branches across 19 countries. However, it started out with very humble beginnings. The first Service was held in a tiny apartment building in the Bisan-dong neighbourhood of Dongan district in the city of Anyang, Gyeonggi Province on 14th March 1984. In 1990, its theological arm, the Zion Christian Mission Centre, was set up in Seoul, and has since grown to providing over 400 centres both domestically and internationally to teach the revealed word of the Bible to those who wish to study. According to the promise of Revelation 22:2, the church is continuing to grow by bearing 12 crops of fruit.

Shincheonji Church has not only spread the Gospel, but also devoted time and effort to caring for thousands of isolated and vulnerable people within mainland Korea through its Volunteer Group, established in 2003. Since then, it has received 67 awards for volunteerism from governmental, civil and private organisations, and is currently the largest Korean-based NGO operating in mainland Korea.

Shincheonji Church is fulfilling every single promise written in the Book of Revelation and its congregation members are mastering the 66 books of the Bible. It is through Shincheonji Church that God’s will and the hope of humanity will be fulfilled. Please come and learn for yourself.
