The Shincheonji Bible Seminar, where Chairman ManHee Lee of Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony (Shincheonji Church of Jesus) personally toured major cities across South Korea to give lectures, concluded its one-month crusade with favourable reviews from pastors and believers alike.

Pastors who attended the Shincheonji Bible Seminar series in Daejeon, Daegu, Busan, and Gwangju, starting from Seoul on the 7th October, were amazed at the fact that Shincheonji's lectures on the fulfilled realities of the entire Book of Revelation were purely based on the Bible without error, and revealed the fulfilled realities of the Book of Revelation. They expressed their gratitude to Chairman Lee for his testimony. A pastor who opened his carefully written notes said, “I really want to share this message when I return to church,” and pastors expressed a desire to sign an MOU (Memorandum of Understanding) to have the revealed word from Shincheonji Church of Jesus taught to church congregations, showing strong interest in the revealed word of Shincheonji.

In Seoul, over 1600 people including 450 pastors attended; in Daejeon, over 2000 people including 200 pastors; in Daegu, over 2000 people including over 100 pastors; in Busan, over 1600 people including over 100 pastors; and in Gwangju about 4000 people including 300 pastors attended.

Mr. Kim, a pastor from the Seoul area who came to listen to the lecture, said, “I'd kept my distance to the point where we even hung a ‘no entry’ sign at the entrance of our churches because Shincheonji was said to be a heresy, but when I attended and heard the Shincheonji lecture in person, I was very surprised because the teachings were entirely biblical.” “Thank you - every single word has deeply resonated with me,” he said.

Mr. Choi, a pastor who has been in ministry for 19 years, said, “I'd first heard of the lecture on the Book of Revelation through YouTube, and by chance, I ended up attending the event in person through an acquaintance.” He added, “I visited many Presbyterian, Holiness Church, and Baptist churches, and the Chairman of the church (Shincheonji) spoke on Chapter 1 of Revelation. As I listened to his fluent lecture up to chapter 22, I thought to myself, ‘This is the only place where you can learn the Bible.’”

Pastor Seung-chun Jeon, who serves at a non-denominational church, said, “I think having a deep understanding of the Bible and a sermon delivered with confidence is what differentiates Chairman Lee from pastors who do not understand the Bible well.” “It was a great blessing and I was deeply moved,” he said.

Pastor Park from the Presbyterian Church said, “The reality is that even seminary deans don’t know the Word, and it’s not uncommon to sell pastoral licenses for tens of millions of Korean won, so it was good to hear a clear and accurate Bible-based lecture. I think it will be of great help in future sermons I give.”

Pastor Kim, who runs a Presbyterian church, said, “I've been a pastor for 19 years, but I was surprised to hear for the first time that the words of Revelation in the New Testament were fulfilled as prophesied and had appeared in reality.” “I thought no pastor could testify like this unless he had actually received the revealed word,” he said.

Pastor Park, who said that he had difficulty interpreting the Book of Revelation even after 40 years of pastoral life, said, “It was difficult to preach on the Book of Revelation,” and added, “But Chairman Lee completely understands the Book of Revelation and spoke clearly about it.” He expressed surprise. At the same time, he recommended Shincheonji's teachings on Revelation to his fellow pastors. Pastor Park emphasised the need for dialogue, saying, “I think it's important to have deep and open dialogue to understand each other’s beliefs,” and added, “If possible, all denominations should gather in one place and discuss the Word.” “I hope such a venue will be created,” he said.
