These are the words of a pastor who attended the 'Shincheonji 12 Tribes Bible Seminar' hosted by John Tribe (tribe leader Gi-won Lee) of Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony (Shincheonji Church of Jesus, Chairman ManHee Lee) at the Ibis Ambassador Hotel in Suwon city, Gyeonggi province on the 22nd.

Tribe head Yoo first explained the theme of the day, 'Revealing the Fulfilled Reality of Revelation, the New Covenant'. Tribe head Yoo explained, “In line with the theme of 'Revealing the Fulfilled Reality of Revelation, the New Covenant', Shincheonji wants to testify not only the prophecies but also what has been fulfilled. So that we could know the truth, Jesus said, 'I have told you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe' (John 14:29).”

At the same time, he gave lectures on the topics of God's will and purpose, the 6000-year history of the Bible for the re-creation of God's kingdom, and the prophecies of the entire book of Revelation and their fulfilled realities.

He also cited the reasons for Shincheonji's rapid growth: God, Jesus, and the angels of heaven are with Shincheonji; it is the place where the promised word of revelation and its fulfilled realities are testified; it has been created as if stamped according to the book of Revelation; and it masters the book of Revelation without adding or subtracting to it. Tribe head Yoo said, “The pride of Shincheonji is its mastery of the Book of Revelation.”

He also testified how he came to Shincheonji Church of Jesus. Tribe leader Yoo said, “After 10 years of faith in the Presbyterian Church, it has been a little over 30 years since I became a believer in Shincheonji.” The attendees responded with 'Amen' and applause.

Tribe head Yoo's lecture resonated with the attendees, leading to a response that they would like to learn the words of Shincheonji. Pastor Tae-jin Kim of Wooridul Church of the Presbyterian Church of Korea (PCK), who experienced the revealed word of Shincheonji on the spot, confessed, “(To learn about the Book of Revelation), I went to many churches and finally knocked on the door of Shincheonji Church of Jesus.” He continued, “You explained all the chapters of the Book of Revelation in detail today. It is very regrettable that pastors of the Korean churches today do not know this.” He also said, “Today, Presbyterian churches and their congregations are very jealous of Shincheonji, but Shincheonji is the only organisation that is proclaiming that 'We Are One'.”

Regarding the reason for attending the lecture that day, Pastor Bo-bae Lim of Ramanayot Church in Yeokgok, Incheon, said, “I was very curious because Shincheonji said they would inform us about the truth of the Book of Revelation. That's why I came to attend.” He also said, “Among everything I heard, the words 'new heaven new earth' are what touched my heart the most.”

There were also pastors whose perception of Shincheonji changed when they encountered the teachings from Shincheonji. Pastor Yeong-ok Yoo of Sarang Jeil Church in Anyang said, “I'd heard of it being a cult, but after coming here and hearing the word, I realised that this is not so.” He said, “Among everything I heard, the teaching about the importance of clearly learning and understanding according to the words of Revelation and the word of God is what touched me the most.”

As such, believers, including pastors, are responding enthusiastically to the revealed theology of Shincheonji Church of Jesus. In fact, according to Shincheonji Church of Jesus, 8176 churches in 80 countries have signed MOUs (Memorandums of Understanding) with Shincheonji Church of Jesus. Shincheonji’s free Bible education institution, Zion Mission Center, currently has over 110,000 students.

Regarding this, an official from Shincheonji's John Tribe said, “(The Shincheonji Bible Seminar) is a good opportunity to see for yourself why many people are interested in the words of Shincheonji Church of Jesus.”

Meanwhile, this Shincheonji 12 Tribes Bible Seminar was held at the request of the pastors who had participated in the Shincheonji Bible Seminar, held predominantly for pastors from April to June of this year.
