On the 23rd, the joy of the gospel announcing a new beginning resounded from Haenam, the southernmost tip of the Korean Peninsula.

Haenam symbolises both an end and a beginning. Many embark on a pilgrimage across Korea, beginning or concluding their journey at Haenam. It also has symbolic spiritual meaning as it is a location that many people align with the words of Matthew 24:14: “And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.”

The Bible frequently references the 'ends of the earth' and the 'east' as places where God's work begins, making this dedication all the more significant.

Chairman ManHee Lee attended the dedication, emphasising that just as Old Testament prophecies were fulfilled at Jesus’ first coming, the prophecies of Revelation are now being fulfilled. He urged believers to recognize the fulfilment of God’s Word and testify to the truth. He also reminded the congregation that true faith is not based on human thoughts but on God's promises, which are now coming to fruition.

Chairman Lee further stressed the importance of understanding and keeping God’s Word exactly as written, without adding or subtracting from it, as warned in Revelation 22:18-19. He encouraged believers to become true witnesses of the Word by seeing its fulfilment firsthand and living according to God’s teachings. He emphasised that today’s faith must align with the reality of God’s work, urging members to commit themselves fully to spreading the gospel and building God’s kingdom on earth.

The event was filled with joy as believers reaffirmed their mission, pledging to bring God’s Word to all people, fulfilling the task of evangelising to the ends of the earth.

The dedication was more than just a ceremony - it was a festival of faith. Believers gathered from near and far, sharing in the joy of witnessing God’s work. Hymns of praise filled the air, and many were moved to tears as they reflected on the significance of this moment. With hands raised in worship and hearts united in faith, attendees expressed gratitude for the continued expansion of God's kingdom.

Meanwhile, Shincheonji’s rapid global expansion demonstrates the fulfilment of God’s work. With pastors and believers worldwide embracing the revealed gospel, the dedication of Haenam Church marks another step toward spreading the truth to all nations. As God’s promises unfold, Shincheonji remains committed to leading people into His kingdom. This dedication serves as a reminder that the mission is far from over - there are still countless souls waiting to hear the truth, and Shincheonji will continue to work without rest until the gospel has reached every corner of the earth.
