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 -

Shincheonji: The Life of a Believer

There are many instances in life where we come upon much hardships. However in those hardships do we see them as blessings or do we see them as what they are?

People with faith and people without faith in the Bible all go through hardships. Those who go through hardships outside of the Bible may see it as an opportunity to overcome future problems. People with faith on the other hand may see it a sign or a calling from God. This may be true, but what does a Shincheonji congregation see hardships as?

A Shincheonji congregation sees hardships as nothing but a problem because of this a certain mindset that can be seen all throughout the Bible. The Bible shows God's hardships for so many years that amount to the thousands. As a believer who is able to see the Bible as a whole, one is able to find every hardship as a test to grow their faith even more. Through hardships believers must be able to overcome that hardship using the Bible. The Bible is filled with hope that no hardship is worth going through. If the disciples were able to go through death which can be weighted as the greatest hardship, then we have to ask ourselves how they were able to do this.

The reason in which the disciples were able to overcome every single hardship was because they saw a hope that was worth greater than their lives. Let us ask ourselves if we see the hope to overcome any circumstance. If the hope is unclear, we must be able to now understand God's heart through the word. God has recorded many characters in the scriptures to show us how to overcome, and this is something a believer must take into consideration. The word is full of hope, but how much of that hope do you see?

May everyone be able to pray earnestly with the heart of finding this hope so that one may be able to overcome the circumstances of their lives and even more help others overcome theirs.

Shincheonji Bible: Purpose

Before anything else, I would like to ask you as the reader, "What is the purpose of life?"

This is an answer that many on earth believe they are able to answer with confidence. In all honesty, we may all have different purposes in life and some may also say that there is no true purpose that everyone must live by. However, if I were to say that the purpose of life is to work hard, be happy and die, there are many who will say "yes, that is life."

Now let me ask you what the opposite of LIFE is. I believe everyone can say it is death. Then the opposite to live is to die. Then how can we say that the purpose of life results in death? Even the word 'Life" is the opposite of what many can say what their lives are about. We must reflect on what then is wrong.

Life is precious and the purpose of our life should be to live as long as we can. Many people in this generation strive for longer life and we ask ourselves if this is naturally built within our hearts. I guarantee that not many people will say they want to die early. Even ants see life as precious and dogs. Then as humans, what has life become to us?

Please take your time to look at these videos.

Then how do we have life?

Romans 8:11 says that the spirit of Christ that lives within us can give us life even to our mortal bodies. Furthermore John 6:63 say that the spirit gives life, the flesh counts for nothing and that the words Jesus spoke which are now recorded in the scriptures are spirit and are life.

Furthermore it says that the light that was in Jesus was the life that gave life to all.
Now is there a lot more hope then we expected right?

Therefore let us continue to see more than just physical ways to prolong life, but let us be able to look for the way that God has said gives life. It is the word and I truly believe that it is through the world, the entire world will come to truly live life with the purpose of living.
