In 2025, the Simon Tribe of Shincheonji Church of Jesus carried out a series of Bible seminars for pastors, with a total of six sessions held throughout the year. According to the Simon Tribe, 106 pastors participated cumulatively in these seminars.

The programme was designed to help pastors examine the Bible from beginning to end, focusing on the overall structure of Scripture and the place of the Book of Revelation within that structure. Rather than approaching Revelation as an isolated or symbolic text, the seminars emphasised understanding it within the broader biblical narrative of prophecy and fulfilment.

Each seminar addressed a different theme while maintaining a consistent focus on the “big picture” of the Bible. Topics included the meaning of the Lord’s Prayer, the parable of the sown seed and the harvest, prophecy and fulfilment, and the fulfilment and reality of Revelation.

The sessions were held on 15th February, 22nd March, 25th April, 20th June, 6th September, and 13th December 2025. While attendance varied by session, participants consistently reported that the seminars helped them view Scripture not as disconnected passages, but as a continuous and structured whole.

The lectures were led by Seung-ju Lee, the leader of the Simon Tribe, who emphasised that Revelation should not be set aside as an incomprehensible book. Instead, he described Revelation as the conclusion of biblical faith and a key standard for belief in the present era.

According to seminar organisers, the lectures focused on explaining why Revelation must be understood within the full framework of Scripture, rather than treated as a subject of speculative interpretation or doctrinal debate.

Pastors who attended the seminars shared that their perspective on Revelation and Shincheonji changed through direct study of the Word. Several participants stated that listening to the Bible explained in sequence - from Genesis through Revelation - helped them reassess previous assumptions.

One pastor who attended the February seminar commented that revisiting the Lord’s Prayer prompted him to reflect on how he prays and teaches prayer. Another pastor at the 20th June session on prophecy and fulfilment said the explanation of Scripture was clear and beneficial, adding that other pastors should also hear the teaching.

Across multiple sessions, pastors remarked that Revelation could be understood not merely as a collection of symbols, but as a book that follows a discernible flow grounded in prophecy and fulfilment.

Meanwhile, the 2025 Simon Tribe Bible seminars reflect an ongoing trend among pastors to move from assumption toward examination, with Scripture serving as the primary standard for understanding and discussion.
