Commemoration Service of Shincheonji's 35th Anniversary

#19840314 #ShincheonjiChurch #35thAnniversary #Foundationday

On 14th March, Shincheonji Church of Jesus (hereon Shincheonji church) will celebrate the 35th anniversary of its founding with a commemoration service. Since its small beginnings with a handful of believers giving worship in an apartment in the city of Anyang, Republic of Korea, on 14th March 1984, Shincheonji church has today grown to 205,000 congregation members worldwide. What is this church?

In English, “Shincheonji” is translated as ‘New Heaven New Earth’. The reason it has this name is because it is a place promised in the New Testament of the Bible; specifically within the Book of Revelation, which is a book of prophecy. Its full name is ‘Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony’. Jesus - not man - is the head of the church because he is the one who promised about future events recorded in the book of Revelation and he is the one who opened the scroll that had been sealed for 2000 years (Rv 5). It is the tabernacle (church) where the testimony of the fulfilment of Revelation is plainly and freely made known to believers (‘tabernacle of the covenant law’ in Rv 15:5). It is the promised ‘New Heaven New Earth’ of Rv 21 where God promises to dwell with His people and end all mourning, death, crying and pain (Rv 21:3-4). This is a very hopeful promise that only God can fulfil and make real.

According to the word of God, whenever God has worked to fulfil His will, the devil has also worked to oppose it (Gal 4:29). Slander has been meted out against Shincheonji church - particularly by the Christian Council of Korea (CCK) - because they want to hold on to their power and authority as their members leave and come to perceive the word taught at Shincheonji church. Whilst the CCK continues to fall in number, Shincheonji church continues to grow rapidly with an average of 2000 people of all faiths coming to learn the revealed word through Zion Christian Mission Centers (Shincheonji church’s teaching wing) around the world. The growth is exponential because the word taught in Shincheonji church is pure and flawless. It testifies to the meaning of the entire 66 books of the Bible with the Bible alone as the standard and is the place Jesus promised in the New Testament. The reason this greatest truth has been hidden for 2000 years until the appointed time today is to hide it from the devil who has led the world astray (Rv 12:9). The promises made by Jesus Christ in the New Testament must be fulfilled somewhere, according to God and Jesus’ will. If Shincheonji church is not the place promised in the Bible, then one must explain clearly where this place is without distorting the words of the Bible.

I am grateful to God and Jesus that I am a congregation member of Shincheonji church. Although I had my own plans, I believe that God sent His angels to guide me to Zion Christian Mission Center where I could learn the revealed word for free (Prov 16:9). During the six-month course, I perceived the secrets of the entire Bible from Genesis-Revelation and, although it was difficult having to acknowledge that some of my then Christian beliefs were outside the word of God, I know that I am now at the place where God, Jesus and the angels of Heaven will return to dwell and end all mourning, death, crying or pain, as promised in Rv 21. What could be more hopeful than this?

I congratulate the 35th anniversary of Shincheonji church of Jesus and look forward to participating in the growth of this beautiful, promised church😊
