What does it mean that Jesus 'rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest' in Revelation 6:2?
📰The Bible is one of the best-selling and most widely distributed books in history, yet it is also considered to be among the least understood. The Bible, which is referred to as the New Covenant and Promise of God, in which 'the way to heaven and salvation' is presented, differs in theologians' interpretations that make it difficult to understand. These differing interpretations have been the cause of the rise of denominations with each one establishing their own doctrine. With the increase in online church services and gatherings resulting from the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, there has been growing interest in the comparison of various church doctrine. This paper, therefore, attempts to provide readers with the opportunity to compare differing Biblical teachings without interpretation. Among a host of online sermons and Bible-based teachings, the contrasting doctrine between the established Church and Shincheonji Church of Jesus, which has drawn public interest throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, is hereby compared and summarised. Best efforts have been made to provide a summary of Shincheonji Church of Jesus' understanding of the Bible. Judgment as to what is right or wrong is left to the reader’s discernment.
There are many references to war in the Bible, and there were actual physical wars in the Old Testament. However, you should know that the warfare spoken of through the prophets is spiritual warfare. In Ephesians 6:12 and 2 Corinthians 10:4, it is said 'we do not wrestle against flesh and blood', but 'against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms'. Neither are the weapons we fight with physical weapons. Likewise, the warfare in Revelation is spiritual warfare, that is, a war of doctrine that took place in the tabernacle of heaven at the Second Coming of the Lord.
The answer to being victorious at the first coming is found in John 16:33. Jesus fought and overcame the scribes and Pharisees, who were the shepherds of Satan at that time. Victory was achieved by fighting and overcoming them with the words of Jesus and fulfilling the promises of the Old Testament on this earth.
Then, what does it mean to 'conquer again'? If you have to win again, it means that you haven't yet secured the victory. If so, who wins, when, where and how?
First, let's look at the background. The book of Revelation is a prophecy written by Apostle John 2000 years ago. This prophecy has been fulfilled today, and the seven messengers who made a covenant in blood with God appeared in Gwacheon, Korea, in 1966, together with the tabernacle of heaven.
This sealed book was in the right hand of God in Revelation 5, and no one in heaven or earth could open it, but Jesus, who had overcome the war with the devil, could open the seals of this book. In this way, the prophecies of Revelation were fulfilled and their realities appeared.
Afterwards, the shepherd promised in Revelation 10 took this open book and ate it. The word he received - that is, the blood of the Lamb and the words of testimony - is what he used to fight against the dragon in Revelation 12 and overcome.
The place where the battle is won is the tabernacle of heaven, and the reality of the dragon in this battle is the Prostitute in Revelation 17 and Babylon, the kingdom of demons in Revelation 18.
This is the process of restoring the kingdom of God, which has been lost for 6,000 years, and of creating a world of peace to rule over. It is not the creation of a nation of war, but a nation of peace.
The only person who can testify to the book of Revelation is the angel (messenger) of Jesus who has seen and heard the fulfilment of the book of Revelation at the location of their events (Rev. 22:16).

Because of this greed, we will enter into a tragic war. At that time, an international social climate that has no choice but to be like that will be created; but it is a time when God can give people a chance to live a better life. Although God gives them more time, people cannot become more corrupt and there will be no hope for the church to be restored. At that time, if God allows war to happen, war will break out."
