“Denominations who exercise those actions are not Christian. They are
extremist and anti-Christian. I want to ask them: in which chapter and which
verse are you following to commit such bad actions? If the Bible does not say
so, why are you doing that?"
Recent global media coverage of the murder of Ms. Ji-In Gu from
the religious “coercive conversion” programme established and implemented by
pastors of the Christian Council of Korea (CCK) has reached the ears and eyes
of people all over the world.
Since its founding in December 1989, the CCK has shown its vested
interest in politics, bought and sold positions and ordainment certificates for
money and distorted the words of God’s promise (the new covenant), sowing lies into
congregation members’ hearts by making their own interpretations of the Bible, making
them children of the devil born of the devil’s seed (Mt 13:39). Furthermore, in
the late 1990s, an ex-chairman of CCK spread rumours to the entire Korean
Christian community about a forthcoming rapture to heaven; yet the church is
still standing. Is this the work of a true pastor? Can this organisation be considered
Orthodox or a church of Jesus?
CCK’s congregation members - who once numbered 12 million - are
now leaving in droves after having perceived their lies and the dirty mesh of
religion and politics. They neither believe in what their leaders preach nor vote
as they are told to. Their membership has fallen to 1.9million and continues to
fall dramatically.
Perhaps worst of all is the “coercive conversion programmes” which
violate human rights on every level and has led to two deaths and over 1000
kidnappings. The CCK has used this practice in an attempt to bring their congregation
members, who have fled to a different denomination due to their corruption,
back to them. These are not the actions of Christianity, but of Calvin (who
established Presbyterianism upon which the CCK is founded) and murdered men,
women and children who opposed his theory on predestination.
Moreover, CCK conversion pastors deceive the parents of
Shincheonji Church’s youth, receiving weekly payments of approximately
600,000KRW (£420), and educate parents on ways to convert their child, forcefully
feeding them sleeping pills, taking away their cell phones, handcuffing them,
confining them in isolated places, beating them into signing an agreement to
receive conversion programmes and forcing them to apply for a leave of absence
from school or work until they sign for conversion education. If children are still
not converted, they are sent to psychiatric wards. Parents then return to their
child’s church and shout out all sorts of profanities, saying “give back my son (daughter)”. What do
you think about this?
The CCK will not stand for long. Ms. Gu’s death has triggered a wave of global protests as this news is being made known to religious communities and people all over the world through media and press in various countries. The UN has condemned the CCK’s coercive conversion programme and is calling for its abolishment. The entire world is crying out for the CCK to shut down for their oppression of the freedom of religion and human rights. They are aware of this.
According to the Bible, there will be a time of judgment whereby one’s actions will be judged according to what is recorded in the Bible, resulting in either heaven or hell (Revelation 20:12-15). Shincheonji Church has appeared according to what God and Jesus promised in the Book of Revelation, has mastered its prophecies and the word of God here is being delivered freely without cost through the mouth of the messenger (promised pastor) promised by Jesus Christ (Revelation 22:16). Here is the creation of the promised twelve tribes of new heaven and new earth, which is a new kingdom and new people (Rv 21:1). It is the desire of every Shincheonji Church congregation member that the pastors of the CCK turn from their ways, come to hear the true word of God and receive salvation.
To the pastors of the Christian Council of Korea (CCK)
