A plasma donation began on the 13th for 500 members of the Sincheonji Church among those who completely cured the new coronavirus infection in Daegu. On the morning of the day, a Shincheonji donor is donating blood plasma at Kyungpook National University Hospital in Daegu.

500 Recovered Congregation Members of Shincheonji Church Donate COVID-19 Blood Plasma

Among the members of the Shincheonji Church, 500 people from Shincheonji Church, who have recovered from COVID-19, are donating blood plasma this week.

The Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in cooperation with the Korean Red Cross, set up mobile plasma sites to extract blood plasma from 500 congregation members of Shincheonji who have recovered from COVID-19.

This represents a 200% uptick in plasma donations in South Korea. Before the mass donation, South Korean officials reported that about 170 people's blood plasma were collected nationwide.

In June, 4,000 members of Shincheonji pledged to donate blood plasma. Due to logistical issues, 55 members were able to donate blood plasma before this week.

The 500 members' blood plasma will be procured within the week by using blood donation cars that can extract blood in large quantities. This is thought to be the first round of donations.

Health officials from the Mayo Clinic and U.S. Food and Drug Administration believe that plasma donations may contribute greatly to the treatment of COVID-19 patients as well as contribute to the research and development of novel immunotherapies.

Preliminary results of one trial cited by UpToDate, showed a statistically significant rate of improvement in patients treated with donated plasma compared to those who received standard therapies (91% compared to 68% respectively).

The plasma donated by Shincheonji will be used to make similar treatments after clinical trials.

 

 

 

※ Plasma therapy is a method of extracting plasma from a recovering patient and injecting it into another patient. The recovered patient's plasma contains a large amount of antibodies, which are known to be effective if injected into a critical patient.

The blood treatment is made by enriching and sanctioning small amounts of antibodies and immunoglobulins contained in the blood of a complete healer. This requires a lot of blood. However, it had difficulty developing treatments due to the fact that plasma donors are suitable for blood collection, and the absolute lack of plasma donors.

Meanwhile, 4,000 believers of Shincheonji expressed their intention to donate plasma on the 23rd of last month, raising expectations for the development of the Corona 19 treatment, which is good news for all mankind in the global community suffering from the coronavirus.

I'm proud to be able to deliver this good news about 'Love of Shincheonji' in Korea.

While plasma donation for 500 members of the Sincheonji Daegu Church began on the 13th among the confirmed cases of coronavirus infection in Daegu, a medical team is helping plasma donors write consent forms for research subjects.

 

 

A Shincheonji Saint's Prayer about COVID-19

 

In COVID-19 period of time,

‘A Prayer of a Shincheonji Saint'
 

 

Father God who I give all the thanks to, I am truly and deeply grateful that you have called me as the physical entity of twelve tribes of the kingdom of God at this time of fulfillment of Revelation, where the words of Revelation 7:4-8 of the Bible appeared as flesh.

 

Thank you for allowing me to receive the testimony of the physical fulfillment of the entire book of Revelation though the promised pastor who is sent to the churches as the physical entity of Revelation 22:16.

 

I am also thankful that you have allowed all the mysteries of Revelation and the Revelation of Jesus Christ to our Shincheonji saints through the promised pastor according to the passage of conveying this revealed word written in Rev 1:1.

 

I am grateful that I am witnessing the physical fulfillment of the great tribulation written in Rev 7:9, 14 with my own eyes.

 

I also greatly desire to see the physical fulfillment of Rev 18:5-10.
Father God, please come quickly.

 

Our Shincheonji family engraves the word of Rev 20:4-6 in our hearts and keeps the New Covenant recorded in Heb 8:10.

 

Jesus Christ, who proved all this through the promised pastor sent to the churches as written in Rev 22:16, please truly come quickly.

 

May the grace of the Lord Jesus be with all the people of the world as in Revelation 22:20-21.

 

Please come, so that there will be no more people of the world or the saints of Shincheonji would suffer from Corona disease.

 

And please help the confirmed patients to be cured as soon as possible.
In Korea, more than 4,000 Shincheonji saints in Daegu who overcame Covid-19 are donating their plasma for the discovery and the development of its treatment.

 

Please add wisdom, health and safety to all those who work hard at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, those in government and health centers, the police, and those who work at various organizations. And help all the domestic and international saints so that they can overcome this crisis with the strength of their faith.

 

Please send your grace to everyone in the global community who is suffering from Covid-19.
Help us so that the cure for Corona virus will be developed as soon as possible. 

 

Father God. So many Shincheonji congregation members are suffering from severe human right violation because of Coercive Conversion Program(education) and some of them even lost their lives. I desperately pray that there will be a legal punishment to the coercive conversion pastors and a legal prohibition law towards them can be enacted.

 

If Shincheonji had compromised with the world and had not lived according to the Bible, we would not be persecuted or trapped in the false stigma of heresy(cult). Shincheonji does not belong to the world, but it is being fulfilled on earth as it is in heaven according to the Bible. 

Father God, love and protect the twelve tribes which you have fulfilled according to the promise.

I pray in the name of Jesus who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood and has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve God and Father as it is written in Revelation 1:5-6.    

 

  Amen!              

 

 

 

 

Mt 1:1-17 Jesus' Genealogy

 

Matthew 1:1-17

Genealogy of Jesus

 

 



Why did Jesus' genealogy be recorded in the Bible?
Why does the New Testament begin with the genealogy of Jesus?

The New Testament begins with the genealogy of Jesus.

It is easy to think of the genealogy of Jesus as a simple list of names, but Jesus' genealogy is an important document confirming that Jesus is the promised Christ in the Bible.

Jesus came as a descendant of Abraham, but not the son of man, but the son of God, born of the seed of the Spirit of God. (Psalm 2: 7, Luke 1:35)

• The genealogy of Jesus

First, 14 generations from Abraham to David

Second, from David to Jeconiahs (until this was done in Babylon) 

Third, after died in Babylon, there are fourteen generations up to Jesus.

Matthew 1: 1 ~ The reason that the genealogy of Jesus started from Abraham was because of 'the promise of God' and because God made a covenant with Abraham in Genesis 17: 4-5, 19.

Excerpts from the book "The Acts of Jesus Christ"

Lord of Shincheonji

Who is Lord of Shincheonji?

 

The Lord of Shincheonji Church of

Jesus the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony

 

The Lord of Shincheonji is Jesus~!

 



Shincheonji Church of Jesus the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony

 

Shincheonji Church of Jesus the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony has never called its chairman Jesus nor Lord. He has come as a messenger of Jesus.

 

Refer to Revealtion 22:16

"I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things for the churches I am the root and the descendant of David, the bright morning star." 

Chairman of Shincheonji Church of Jesus the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony, he has come as a messenger of Jesus, not a false pastor, nor a cult, nor Lord, nor Jesus (Refer to Rv 22:16▲).



As I mentioned yesterday, in Rev 22:16, He introduced Jesus himself
and said that he sent Jesus' his messenger(Rev 10:) for the churches. 

- The Correct Understanding of Bible and Shincheonji -

 

No one in heaven or on earth or under the earth understood Revelation of the New Testament which is the new covenant, but Jesus, by overcoming, opened the seven seals, opened the book and fulfilled it (Rv 5), and has fed it to one person on earth (the messenger who speaks on behalf) to testify to it (Rv 10, Rv 22:16). Except for him, there is no one who knows the fulfillments and the realities of Revelation. By taking a test on Revelation, the messenger who has received the opened book and is testifying it will be revealed. Why can’t you take the test? One will have to distinguish who is heretical or ‘true-ical-orthodox’, and come to realize who is the true heresy and false pastor. The devil has disturbed God’s work for the past 6,000 years. Therefore, one must decide and judge who is the true pastor of God and the truth and who is the false pastor and the false truth through the Bible, not by arguing. If he is the true pastor of God, he will know the secret of the Bible and what is created according to the Bible. 

Shincheonji the Church of Jesus is the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony that testifies to the highest truth of mankind, and consists of the pastor of truth and the congregation members who are the promised new kingdom and people. God, Jesus, and heaven come to this place, and it becomes heaven and a paradise where God reigns (Refer to Rv 3:12, Rv 21). This is what is promised in the new covenant of the New Testament and what is fulfilled today.

Come, and you will see~!

Shincheonji's Weapon

 

 

The Weapon of Shincheonji

 

The event in Revelation :

about the last war between God and the devil.

The one who overcomes will take everything (Dt 28).
Who will overcome with what(weapon) and how?
With what and how could he overcome?
He overcame with Jesus’ blood and the word of testimony.

Jesus overcame the world (John 16:33), told to fight and overcome the enemy seven times in Revelation 2-3, and said that he will give blessings promised in Revelation 2-3. The promised pastor (New John) received the open scroll in Revelation 10 and fought and overcame the dragon in Revelation 12. In Revelation 11, the kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of God with the last seventh trumpet sound (trumpet in Revelation 10:7).

Jesus showed himself to New John and introduced himself as someone who died and came to life and who held the keys of death and Hades (Revelation 1). He also told about the mystery of the seven stars and the seven golden lampstands (Revelation 1:20), the mystery of the devil (Revelation 17), and the mystery of God’s last seventh trumpet. Only those who know about these three mysteries are Jesus and New John. So, they had enough testimony to fight and overcome the group of the dragon.

With these words of testimony, they fought and overcame the dragon in Revelation 12.
Therefore, the war in Revelation became a war where it began with God’s victory. After overcoming, the 12 tribes were created by harvesting and sealing.

CCK, Root of Social Evil?

 

I should like to put it this way, "the Christian Council of Korea, is Root of Social Evil"...... because of below contents and so on.

 Issuing a joint statement declaring the Presbyterian pastor Rev. Jeon Kwang-hoon as a “public enemy”

‘A Public Enemy’: Pan-Religious Statement Alarms Extremist Move of the Christian Council of Korea

On December 28, about 50 prominent South Korean religious leaders issued a joint statement declaringthe Presbyterian pastor Rev. Jeon Kwang-hoon as a “public enemy” with sacrilege and criminal activities,as concern and controversy are coming from his hate speeches and anti-government activities.

The event was hosted by the Christian Federation of Anti-Corruption and Sponsored by Pan-Religion Association.In the statement the religious leaders “denounce Rev. Jeon for the sins committing social conflict and division” due to his remarks including “God, if you mess around, I’ll kill you.”, “Islam and homosexuality are diseases,” and “Women say Satan’s words.”

“Tell a young female believer take off her panties and say, ‘I want to sleep with you.’ If she accepts, she is a believer. If she refuses, she is a shit,” said Rev. Jeon in a training program for pastors to explain a way to distinguish a “true” follower of church.

Criticism against Rev. Jeon from the religious world was triggered when he said, “Those who believe Buddhism should go to prison or uninhabited island.” In his inaugural speech as President of the CCK in February, he stated that his major task is to “block homosexuality, Islam and Anti-discrimination law.”

Back in October 2019, calling the South Korean President Moon Jae-In “a son of bixxh”, Rev. Jeon has led an anti-government demonstration and insisted that President Moon is a spy and there are 500,000 followers of North Korea to “drive the country to ruin” by taking it away from the United States. After the event, he added, “Hallelujah. The most pleasant time has come. Time to collect offerings.”

Massimo Introvigne, an Italian sociologist and the director of Center for Studies on New Religions (CESNUR)as the largest international organization studying new religious movements, noted that “the activities of the CCK and Rev. Jeon Kwang-hoon are causing international concern.In addition to their radical political activities, the CCK and Rev. Jeon are spreading religious intolerance in Korea and abroad through hate speech and discrimination against groups they label as ‘heretic(cult).’”

“Worse, they support violence against members of these groups, such as Shincheonji and others, who are kidnapped and submitted to ’deprogramming,’ an illegal forced conversion program trying to compel them to renounce their faith,” he added.
(Refer to http://www.shincheonji.kr/bv_shincheonjiIssue_5209)

The rise of Rev. Jeon traces back to his winning the presidential election of the Christian Council of Korea (CCK). Founded in 1989 after a series of control on church under dictatorship, the CCK has represented the majority of Christian (especially Presbyterian) churches of South Korea with millions of members and dozens of denominations.

Under the sponsorship from the military dictatorship since the 1970s, many Korean churches and later the CCK have been the forefront of conservative political activism. The CCK has exerted its influence in elections based on its members, labeled members or denominations not belonging to the CCK as “cults”.

“The growing concern of the CCK and Rev. Junis coming from the question the Constitution of South Korea that mandates the separation of religion and state. Over the political activism the Western media pointed out, Rev. Jeon’s anti-social, anti-religious, and anti-national remarks and behaviors are something to be called a “public enemy,” said Ven. Hyewon, South Korean Representative of World Buddhist Summit.



I'm curious about the reactions of other pastors of CCK in Korea~! My belief(opinion) is that CCK must be closed immediately. I want to root and weed out social evil, CCK (Please, refer to this link 👉 http://www.shincheonji.kr/bv_shincheonjiIssue_5209, then it will be easy to understand.).

To God's People, Flee from CCK

Revelation 18:2-5

 With a mighty voice he shouted: "Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great! She has become a home for demons and a haunt for every evil spirit, a haunt for every unclean and detestable bird.
For all the nations have drunk the maddening wine of her adulteries. The kings of the earth committed adultery with her, and the merchants of the earth grew rich from her excessive luxuries." Then I heard another voice from heaven say: "Come out of her, my people, so that you will not share in her sins, so that you will not receive any of her plagues; for her sins are piled up to heaven, and God has remembered her crimes.

 

 

 

Revelation is a book of prophecies written in parables.

When this prophecy is fulfilled, the prophetic truth written in the book.

What is "her" metaphor here?

Shincheonji Church of Jesus Issues Statement

To Condemn Pastor Jeon Kwang-hoon

Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony (Shincheonji Church of Jesus, Chairman Man Hee Lee) has condemned Pastor Jeon K(G)wang-hoon who is causing controversy with his alleged recent blasphemous remarks. Shincheonji Church of Jesus also strongly called for the shutdown of the Christian Council of Korea (CCK), of which Pastor Jeon Kwang-hoon is the president.

Shincheonji Church of Jesus said the above in their statement of condemnation released on the 24th, and urged the members of the CCK to leave from it for there is no salvation there.
In their statement, people of Shincheonji Church of Jesus said, Pastor Jun spoke against God by allegedly saying, If you mess around, I will kill you, and other similar remarks. They say he has committed the sin of blaspheming God and the Holy Spirit. Shincheonji also emphasized, Pastor Jeon's words are the words of the CCK. The true identity of the spirit (god) over the CCK is finally exposed.

They added, God, the Creator of the universe, is a being all the people of the earth worship and revere. Jesus and the members of Shincheonji are God's spiritual children born of Gods seed, as testified in Matthew 13:24-30 and 13:38-39; God is the Father of the members of Shincheonji. They ask: Why does Pastor Jeon wish to kill our Father?

The members of Shincheonji Church of Jesus also said, It seems that the CCK churches and pastors who are under President Jeon Gwang-hoon all have the same spirit (god) and thoughts. Jeon Gwang-hoon should leave the earth along with the CCK, enter the fiery lake of sulfur voluntarily.

People of Shincheonji Church of Jesus explained that what they describe as the atrocious acts of the Protestant churches that belong to the CCK followed the devilish deeds that have been continuing since the Japanese colonial era. They listed the CCKs deeds which they believe are anti-nation, anti-society, and anti-religion, which include their worshipping and praising the Japanese gods at their shrine, how the CCK pastors added to and subtracted the Book of Revelation, and how there have been 12,000 convictions for the crimes the pastors allegedly committed in the past ten years.

People of Shincheonji Church of Jesus said, "We are afraid that our country South Korea will be pointed out and blamed by the whole world as a country of the devil, because of Jeon Kwang-hoon, the president of the CCK. The whole world is speaking out against Jeon Kwang-hoon's ludicrous and blasphemous comment."

Along with this, the members of Shincheonji urged those who follow Pastor Jeon by saying, Believers who are following blindly do you think there is salvation in the CCK, an organization that says to kill God? Flee from there(Refer to Revelation 18:4).

A representative of Shincheonji Church of Jesus said, President Jeon Gwang-hoon claims that he has been anointed, and even asserting that the entire country of South Korea centers around him, and that he will kill God if things do not go his way. He also explained, such assertions expose his heretic beliefs that use religion for power and oppose God. The CCK a political organization masked under religion must be shut down immediately, Shincheonji say.

Sadness that goes beyond Words

In this world, there are many atrocious events that seem to shake our world to realize that there is something inherently wrong. In the United States of America, we have the first amendment to protect many of the freedoms that we live for. Specifically, the first Amendment seeks to give us our religious freedom and this should never be compromised. However religious freedom does not only exist in the United States, but it exists in other nations as well.

South Korea which is currently holding the Pyeongchang winter olympics is one the countries that have the right for religious freedom under the Korean Constitution article 20. As serious as the United States protects the citizens from their rights, South Korea should as well.

Recently there has been an event where religious freedom was compromised in South Korea. Even though there is so much joy surrounding the Olympics, there is a deep dark issue that we must be able to address. There has been a case where a 25 year old individual was murdered due to the forced conversion of the Christian Council of Korea (CCK). However, CCK is able to slip away for the crime due to a loophole in the forced conversion system in Korea. CCK was able to slip away due to making the parents commit the crimes so that whatever deed would not be at their fault. Therefore in this case, the parents of the 25 year old individual committed a crime that was being manipulated by the CCK. This loophole is something that must be addressed to the government of South Korea and this is a big issue that may spread in the dark areas of even our society.

CCK is currently on a "witch hunt" to find groups that are deemed as "cults" in Korea and new religious movements that do not follow their laws and doctrines. We know that any kind of witch hunt in history only led to the truth being spoken. During the McCarthy trials, many were accused of being a communist and even further the Salem Witch trials led to many to lose their lives for something they were not guilty of. Should lives be endangered because of religion? Should this be acceptable in any part of the world? I believe not and I hope it is the same with all of you. Let us remember that religious freedom is a right that every living being deserves. Let our beliefs not separate us and even further, may our beliefs not cause violence!

Thousands gather in Gwangju South Korea to fight for the cause of religious freedom
and punishment for those who break the laws of the deserving rights of every individual

Many are in support to stop this atrocious event, and 120,000 people rallied in support for this cause. If you do wish to support this cause, please comment and show that religious freedom is something you want to fight for.

Shincheonji Bible: Justice for All

In a time where the world is witnessing such injustice, there is a desperation for the world to recognize the need for justice that much more.

There are events of people dying and there are events of people suffering because of the lack of justice in this world. All the injustices in this world are not always resolved with justice. In fact with a lot of corruption everywhere, it is hard to say that justice prevails. This is why we need to act upon for a world of justice through our prayers and understanding what justice is according to the Bible.

Justice will come to the entire world one day just as God promises even in Eccl 3:17. God promises he will bring upon judgment for the wicked and the righteous for every deed. Knowing this, we must all realize that there will be a justice for all and act according to what God desires for this world. God tells His people in Hosea 12:6 that His people must return to Him and that they must wait for God always while maintaining love and justice. Once we do this, God promises that justice will be done and it will bring joy to the righteous, but terror to evildoers in Proverbs 21:15.

Then how must we return to God? Is not returning to God possible only if we return to wanting to earnestly seek him? How can we be one with Him?

I hope the more desperate we become, the more we search for God who is able to resolve these things. God does not work alone, but He works through the people who share the same heart as Him. Let us help God. Amen.

Shincheonji Bible: True Faith

Did you know that the appearance of Jesus as portrayed through media today, is actually incorrect? In movies and even paintings, Jesus is depicted as being very handsome with luscious locks and chiseled features. However, according to the Bible, it states that the appearance of Jesus was actually very far from this.

The reality of Jesus' true appearance is recorded in Isaiah 53:2:
"He grew up before him like a tender shoot, and like a root out of dry ground. He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him."

Jesus, the promised Lord of Lords and King of Kings, didn't even have some beauty or majesty, but had no beauty and no majesty, as would be expected from a king.

God, who is the Creator of all creation, undoubtedly had the power to grant Jesus any appearance, to be even more beautiful and majestic than any celebrity or actor that we know of today. Even today, when people see a handsome or beautiful celebrity in real life, they follow the celebrity around just to catch a glimpse of the person. Likewise, more people during Jesus' first coming could have followed him if Jesus' appearance was also in this way, because humans are so easily convinced by what is seen with the eye.

Then, why didn't God make it easier on himself and have Jesus be this way?

Because, God was seeking for those with true faith, those who would follow Jesus not by his appearance or aura, but would follow and believe in the words that Jesus spoke at that time. Those who believed in Jesus' words believed that these words were from God, and that they were the truth. It couldn't have been easy carrying out faith at this time, yet the 12 disciples believed and held on to the very words of Jesus, even though everything else was going against them.

We are now living in a time where Jesus' is soon to come. Are we going to make the same mistakes as those in the first coming and follow based on only what we see? Or, are we going to check and discern the words that we are hearing, and believe words that are truly given by God as according to the Scriptures?

Let us be those who don't have faith that is pleasing to the human eye, but have faith that is pleasing in God's eyes. Amen.

Shincheonji Bible: Faith for Thought

What do people mean when they say they have faith in something? We can start to answer this question by understanding that having faith is just another word for believing and that believing is tied to trust.

Trust is a universal concept. Children come to trust their parents because of a lifetime of caring for them. People come to trust their friends after getting to know them through time spent together. Communities come to trust their leaders based on their actions and history. But in the same way it can be established, it can also be broken! A leader that doesn't act in the interest of the community will result in this.

So what has God done to be trustworthy? This answer is in the Bible where there are countless examples of God making a promise and then working to completely fulfill it. God has already been acting for thousands of years to prove that He is trustworthy. It is up to us to delve into the Bible, learn what God has done, and have the correct faith in the promises He made.

Shincheonji Bible: The Last Hope

What is the greatest hope of our lives? Is it to be a rich? What is the hope that is deep inside of our hearts? Parents always try to help their children to have a bright dream so that they may grow to make those dreams a reality. Therefore, if we have a hope that is shining bright within our heart and mind, we can endure all hardships that come our way. However as a person with a life of faith, what are we hoping for? Is our hope to have the greatest riches of the earth? Is it to have the best career? We must reflect on what our hope is even through those who lived 2,000 years ago.

           Do you know how many prophets sacrificed their lives for God and spreading the gospel? Was it easy for them to give up their lives? Do you know why the 12 disciples of Jesus decided to follow Jesus? Weren’t they persecuted because they believed in Jesus? It is because they believed 100% of the hope of heaven that God promised. Moreover, they perceived that nothing more can be precious than life. Therefore, they believed God’s promise in order to receive eternal life.

          Then, let’s look into our hearts deeply. Do we really have the hope for eternal life? Our wishes and hopes for the world can’t last forever because it is meaningless without life. If we say that we have 100% faith in heaven and eternal life, let us put God’s Words of promise into our hearts just as the prophets and the twelve disciples did. Amen.

13 write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life. - 1 John 5:13 -
