"The Word Entered Me and Changed My Life" - Shincheonji Church Peter Tribe's 3rd Revelation Study Helps Grow Believers' Faith
Shincheonji Church of Jesus imparts clear and deep biblical teachings, to the extent that many people join the church because of its focus on the Word of God. In Gwangju, South Korea, Shincheonji Church of Jesus' Peter Tribe (hereafter referred to as Shincheonji Peter Tribe) is leading the way with special Bible study programmes to help believers understand God’s Word more and live according to it.
In particular, on November 29th, the Shincheonji Church of Jesus Peter Tribe held the 3rd Revelation Memorization Heavenly Exam across seven churches - Gwangju, Mokpo, Yeosu, Suncheon, Songha, Gwangyang, and Haenam.
An annual tradition for the Peter tribe and now in its third year, the Heavenly Exam was created to help believers engrave the New Covenant - the Book of Revelation - into their hearts and minds. This year, a total of 11,057 members participated, choosing among three difficulty levels (Level 1, Level 2, Level 3).
Their goal is to help members grow into what they call “walking Bibles” - believers who can recall and explain the Word accurately.
One congregant named Kim, who is a working professional and who attempted the Heavenly Examination for the third time, said that despite his busy schedule, he would always open the Bible app and study during his commute, and even made an hour before work and bedtime to memorise the Bible.
Having passed the Heavenly Examination on the third time, Kim said he didn't simply view it as the fruit of hard work. He believed it was a grace from God, a culmination of all the sleepless nights he had spent.
Kim said, “As the Word entered my heart, my life changed. There were difficult moments, but I was able to overcome them with the hope of 'heaven and salvation.”
Peter Tribe Leader Jae-wook Yoo encouraged those who took the exam:
“Your year of preparation will never be in vain. God remembers your effort and sincerity. As believers who have learned the revealed Word from the one who saw and heard the fulfilment of Revelation, let us reveal the value of the Word with even clearer faith.”
Menawhile, the Education Department also announced the introduction of a new Master Level for next year, requiring participants to write the entire Book of Revelation by hand.
