The Passover, the secret of the kingdom of heaven

Now many people know that the Passover is the feast of God which allows us eternal life. However, some people consider those who keep the Passover as legalists or even heretics. How pathetic! Why do some realize the fact that the Passover should be observed while others do not although they all read the same Bible? Of course, we can find the answer in the Bible.

He replied, "The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them… This is why I speak to them in parables: "Though seeing, they do not see; though hearing, they do not hear or understand. (Matthew 13:11-13)

It means that there are people who are allowed to understand the secrets of the kingdom of heaven while there are also those who are not allowed to. The Passover is a secret of the kingdom of heaven which contains the blessings of the forgiveness of sins and everlasting life. Therefore, not everyone can understand the Passover. What’s the difference between those who understand the Passover and those who don’t? 

Then I saw in the right hand of him who sat on the throne a scroll [the Scriptures] with writing on both sides and sealed with seven seals. And I saw a mighty angel proclaiming in a loud voice, "Who is worthy to break the seals and open the scroll?" But no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth could open the scroll or even look inside it. I wept and wept because no one was found who was worthy to open the scroll or look inside. (Revelation 5:1-4)

The Apostle John wept much on the island of Patmos when he heard the words of God would be sealed with seven seals and no one could open the scroll or even look inside it. It is natural that John could not help but cry. Since then, people could not understand the secrets of the kingdom of heaven although they see and read the Bible. It means that people were not able to know the Passover. Fortunately, however, the Bible would not be sealed for good. 

Then one of the elders said to me, "Do not weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals." Then I saw a Lamb, looking as if it had been slain, standing in the center of the throne, encircled by the four living creatures and the elders. (Revelation 5:5-6)

It’s written that the scroll would be opened by a Lamb, looking as if it had been slain, or Jesus who is the Root of David. Therefore, those who receive the Second Coming Jesus can know the secret of the kingdom of heaven or the Passover. In other words, those who keep the Passover have received the Second Coming Jesus.

Do you know who keeps the Passover today? Only the World Mission Society Church of God (WMSCOG) keeps the Passover in the world as did Jesus and the apostles 2,000 years ago. This means that the Second Coming Jesus has already come to this church. Who is the Second Coming Jesus? We cannot realize the true meaning of the Passover until we receive him. The Passover is the feast which Jesus desired to keep and the secret of the kingdom of heaven for which the Apostle John cried bitterly with the concern that it would not be observed.

Born through the Holy Spirit

This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit…. She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins. (Matthew 1:18-21)

Two thousand years ago, Jesus came to the earth as a human like us. He came in the flesh through the Holy Spirit. However, today’s Christians believe in that Jesus as God and say that salvation is only possible through Him. They acknowledge Jesus as the Savior though He came in the flesh. There is a reason we should believe in Jesus as God: He was born through the Holy Spirit according to the prophecy.

For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. (Isaiah 9:6)

But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, though you are small among the clans of Judah, out of you will come for me one who will be ruler over Israel, whose origins are from of old, from ancient times. (Micah 5:2)

Like this, in the Bible, it’s written that God would be born as a baby in Bethlehem. However, the people of Israel faithfully believed in the Savior ‘written in the Bible,’ but could not believe in the Savior ‘who came according to the prophecies.’ Thus, they shouted with certainty, “Crucify him!”

Today, Christians agree that we must not repeat the same mistake, criticizing the Israelites for such an act. However unfortunately, they are also repeating the same mistake committed by the people of Israel 2,000 years ago. They are rejecting the Second Coming Christ Ahnsahnghong who has come according to the prophecies of the Bible.

They say they cannot believe in Christ Ahnsahnghong by saying, “Jesus was born through the Holy Spirit, but Christ Ahnsahnghong was not.” And they add an absurd claim that one who was born of a virgin is through the Holy Spirit and one who was born of a couple is not.

Then, what does it mean to be born through the Holy Spirit? Not only Jesus was born after the Holy Spirit.  The Bible wrote that Isaac, Abraham’s only son, was also born after the Holy Spirit and we, who believe in God, are like Isaac. In other words, we are also born through the Holy Spirit.

Now you, brothers, like Isaac, are children of promise. At that time the son born in the ordinary way persecuted the son born by the power of the Spirit [after the Spirit: KJV]. It is the same now. (Galatians 4:28-29)

Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called . That is , They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed. For this is the word of promise, At this time will I come , and Sara shall have a son. And not only this; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one , even by our father Isaac; (For the children being not yet born , neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand , not of works, but of him that calleth;) It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger. As it is written , Jacob have I loved , but Esau have I hated. (Romans 9:7-13)

‘One through the Holy Spirit’ means one who is prophesied in advance before his/her birth like Isaac or Jacob and born according to such a prophecy. Therefore, Jesus is called ‘born through the Holy Spirit’ not because He was born of a virgin but because He came to the earth according to the prophecies.

Christ Ahnsahnghong is also prophesied in the Bible before His birth. The Bible foretold that the Second Coming Christ shall come a second time to bring salvation. There are many prophecies regarding where He would come from, when He would be born, when He would ascend to heaven and what He would do (Revelation 7:1-4; Isaiah 46:10-11; Isaiah 41:1-10; Matthew 24:32-33; Hebrews 9:28.) Christ Ahnsahnghong fulfilled all such prophecies, which proves that He was born through the Holy Spirit.

There is one thing we must know: we should not focus on how He was born but on whether He brought us the sign of the Christ -- the new covenant of the Passover. It was Christ Ahnsahnghong who brought us the sign of the Second Coming Christ -- the new covenant of the Passover -- and the Bible testifies that He is God (Isaiah 25:6-8.) Therefore, it’s clear that Christ Ahnsahnghong is ‘God who has come according to the prophecies of the Bible’ in this age.

In Galatians Chapter 4, the apostle Paul wrote said that brothers who remain within Heavenly Jerusalem are born after the Holy Spirit. How could he say that he and brothers who were not born of virgins were born after the Holy Spirit?

God the Mother anxiously watches Her Children

Behind the Children

When I was young, there was a time when I went downtown with my mother.

My heart was really aflutter right before we went downtown.


But I was continuously sulky after we got there.


Going from store to store, mom wanted to buy me some clothes and shoes that I liked.
However, answering half-heartedly to what she asked, I walked away from mom.


“Why, nothing suits you?”


I couldn't possibly answer that question and was continuously fretful.
We eventually went home earlier than we have planned.


On the way home, in the bus, I sat away from mom and even when we got off the bus, I
quickly walked keeping a distance from her.


I was petulant because of her shabby and unattractive appearance, and I was so
embarrassed that I wished she wasn’t my mom.


Thinking of what had happened that time, my heart breaks and wells up my eyes.


Wearing out her welcome, my mom worked hard as a cleaning woman. Thinking of her
daughter, who might be discouraged by others, she wanted to buy me a pretty dress and
shoes with her hard-earned money.


I was so sorry being embarrassed and ignoring her as an immature child.


My heart aches at the thought that she would have been behind me, watching me quickly
walking alone ahead of her, without knowing why I was sulky.


When I look at my mom, she recalls of Heavenly Mother.


Even at this moment She wishes Her children who can’t realize, to turn their backs to Her, to come into Her arms.


Mother, for 6000 years, anxiously watches Her children who are not returning.


I am so sorry to Heavenly Mother.

Now, looking at Her, I want to run in Her arms.

I thank Mother for Her deep and great love towards Her children.

Parents of our bodies and Parents of our souls

A man does not consist of body only. Humans are a combination of body and soul.

... the LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground [body] and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life [soul], and the man became a living being (Genesis 2:7)

Therefore, if a man dies, the body and soul are separated and the soul returns to its former place.

... and the dust [body] returns to the ground it came from, and the spirit [soul] returns to God who gave it. (Ecclesiastes 12:7)

While the body which came from the ground returns to it, the soul which came from God returns to Him. Like this, body and soul are different and distinct in essence. So, the Bible says that our physical father and our Spiritual Father are not same:

Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of our spirits and live! (Hebrews 12:9)

If our physical father and our Spiritual Father were identical, our physical father becomes our Spiritual Father. Or, if a man were made of body only and had no soul, there would be only our physical father and there cannot be our Spiritual Father. However, the fact that there are our physical father and our Spiritual Father respectively proves that there exist body and soul individually. Then, who is the Father of our souls?

"This, then, is how you should pray: " 'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name... (Matthew 6:9)

The Father of all souls is God in heaven. But we have not only our physical father but also physical mother. Then, does there exist the Mother of our souls as well? Or, is there only Father? The answer can be found in the Bible.

But the Jerusalem that is above [the heavenly Jerusalem: GNT] is free, and she is our mother. (Galatians 4:26)

The Bible teaches us that there is our Mother as well as our Father in heaven. It's very strange. Why do we have to have our Father and Mother in heaven just as we have our father and mother on the earth? What's the reason?

For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse. (Romans 1:18-20)

All visible things were created by God to reflect God's invisible qualities--His eternal power and divine nature. Body and soul are clearly distinct elements. Our body cannot exist without our physical father and mother, which shows the principle that our soul also cannot exist without our Spiritual Father and Mother. The existence of our body causes us not to deny the existence of father and mother who gave it to us. Therefore, the existence of our soul proves the existence of Father and Mother who gave it to us.

The Bible is really the amazing Words of God which make us realize spiritual principles and God's divine nature through this world we are living in. We should know and believe in God the Father and God the Mother testified by the Bible and all things in this world.

… until the kingdom of God comes

Those who slander the World Mission Society Church of God (Witness of Ahnsahnghong) claim that they do not need to celebrate the Passover of the new covenant by citing Luke 22:

For I tell you, I will not eat it again until it finds fulfillment in the kingdom of God.” After taking the cup, he gave thanks and said, “Take this and divide it among you. For I tell you I will not drink again of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.” (Luke 22:16-28)

They say, “Since Jesus said that he would not keep the Passover until the kingdom of God comes, it’s not necessary to keep the Passover.” In other words, they say that the Passover must be observed in the kingdom of heaven because the kingdom of God means the kingdom of heaven.

At first glance, it appears that the Passover of the new covenant should not be celebrated on this earth according to their argument. It sounds plausible but given just a wee bit of thought, you can realize how non-biblical their insistence is.

What is the Passover of the new covenant for? It is the feast through which we can have the forgiveness of sins (Matthew 26:17-28.) If their claim is correct, sinners who are not entitled to enter the kingdom of heaven will celebrate the Passover at the kingdom of heaven (Revelation 14:5.) It is nonsense! Since they do not know about the basics of the feasts, they claim non-biblical claims such as they will celebrate the Passover in heaven or they will receive the forgiveness of sins there.

What does “the kingdom of God” mean?

He told them this parable: “Look at the fig tree and all the trees. When they sprout leaves, you can see for yourselves and know that summer is near. Even so, when you see these things happening, you know that the kingdom of God is near. (Luke 21:29-31)

Jesus taught in parables that “the kingdom of God” is near “when the fig tree sprouts leaves.” Also, the book of Matthew clearly reveals when the kingdom of God comes through the parable of the fig tree.

Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it [he] is near, right at the door. (Matthew 24:32-33)

From these two verses, we can know that “the kingdom of God comes when the Son of Man or the Second Coming Jesus comes in the flesh.” Therefore, the words of Jesus “I will not drink again of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes (Luke 22:18)” mean that He will keep the Passover when He appears a second time. It implies that only the Second Coming Jesus is able to establish the Passover.

Then, what does it mean that the World Mission Society Church of God celebrates the Passover? It is evidence that the Second Coming Jesus, who is the only One who can establish the Passover, has come. That is, the kingdom of God has already come.

Will you still insist that the Passover should be kept in heaven while seeing and hearing every prophecy of the Bible and its fulfillment like this? You cannot enter the kingdom of heaven without having the forgiveness of sins on this earth. You still have an opportunity: You have to know the Second Coming Christ who established the Passover, before it’s too late.

The greatest miracle in the world

Which one is the greater miracle: Rising from the dead or living eternally?

Of course, the latter is. Even if someone rises from the dead, he will die again some day. Eternal living is really the greatest miracle in the world. “Eternal life”? the area which has not been accomplished even by the state-of-the-art medical science and which will not be fulfilled by men. 2,000 years ago, God let mankind, who were destined to die, know how to experience the miracle of living forever. He allowed it through the Passover of the new covenant

Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life … (John 6:53-54)

And he said to them, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer… “This [Bread] is my body … This cup [Wine] is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you. (Luke 22:15-20)

However, Satan, who watched thirstily for a chance to destroy God’s work, abolished the Passover at the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD.

Christ Ahnsahnghong, God who has come again, said as follows to let us know what the greatest miracle in the world is and how important the Passover is:

People say that the manna which came down from heaven in the wilderness is a miracle, and they say that raising Lazarus from the dead is a miracle.

Yet, in the eyes of God, neither being cured of diseases nor rising from the dead is a miracle.

All people including Lazarus and those who ate the manna in the wilderness died.

However, those who eat and drink the flesh and blood of Jesus will live even though they die; and they will never die.

Obtaining eternal life by eating the bread of life!

Giving life through the Passover to those who are to die; there is no greater miracle than this.

The most important thing to us is the flesh and blood of Jesus, which was allowed through His death on the cross.

In this age, we should not seek miracles and signs.

We should seek eternal life.

We must understand deeply and cherish this covenant of life God gives us, and must always give thanks to God.”

I pray that all people around the world will experience the greatest miracle in the world: living forever with the flesh and blood God which was allowed through His death on the cross.

My Mirror, God the Mother

My Mirror

When I eat lunch with my daughter in Zion, I get really nervous.

Seeing Nelly dropping food while she eats or hearing her romping around, I give her that frowning face.



But that was just for that moment.
Eventually she would just be romping around noisily.

Though I talked to her to behave nicely and to be quiet while she eats, she just forgets all of it at an instant, which upsets me.



Whenever that happened, I felt like my image was damaged and I was afraid that I would have the stigma of a mother who can’t educate her daughter. So when I clench my teeth and say “I’ll see you at home,” at last, Nelly gets quiet.



It reminds me of my mom’s moan that “Your child is the enemy.”


Nelly was always my concern. I worried that she might make mistakes, behave rudely and be blamed, as she would always be restless and forget about things.



Being upset, I told my husband sulkily.



“Look at her, all restless and distracted. She looks just like you...”

Whenever I saw Nelly being naughty, It old him that Nelly looked like him. My husband would usually let my joke passed by, but today my husband looked at me as if he really had something to say to me.



“Darling, did you know that Nelly was praying to be like her mom before going to bed? Don’t you think Nelly resembles you?”



I thought I received a severe blow on my head.


Myself... Myself?



How about myself? What kind of daughter am I to Heavenly Mother?



Do I resemble Mother?



Even today, wouldn't She be upset seeing my insufficient self?



According to my sinful deeds, even now, wouldn't she be ashamed of me?



Why am I so foolish? Why couldn't I see myself?



I felt so sorry to Nelly that she was praying to God with her two small hands together so that she could resemble me.Most of all, I felt so sorry to Heavenly Mother.



A child’s faults are mom’s portion. She was my mirror...



You can just tell without being told who the parents were or the children.



The children just resemble the parents.



Appearances,personalities, the way they walk, appetites, likes, and even dislikes...



How much do I resemble Heavenly Mother?



Even though Her children acts in an opposing way, She wouldn't rebuke and prays for Her children. Though She is mocked and ridiculed by their faults, She would feel sorry for Her children’s weakness and would smile. My Mother of Love...



How much do I resemble Mother?



I didn't realize that my daughter’s faults were my faults, and that she was I, myself.



I hated so much that my image was tarnished because of my daughter, and that I had to be embarrassed.



If someone praised my daughter, I just wanted her to be praised, thinking that the praise she has received was for me and I just wanted to be honored. I am so embarrassed today seeing my foolish self.



I will first resemble Heavenly Mother.



Mother’s smile, Mother’s way of speaking, Mother’s love and sacrifice for Her children...



I will become a mom who looks just like Heavenly Mother, so that I wouldn't be a disgrace for my daughter.



For Mother, I will become only joy for Her, and cooling water on a hot summer day.

Even giving a share of God the Mother's liver

Even giving a share of her liver



Trying to see the weather forecast, I turned on the TV.


Changing channels, I stopped; something caught my eyes.


The child seemed to be like a two year old and looked very sick.
The child was suffering genetic metabolic disorder.


As a result, the child had developmental disorder, since the he couldn't digest specific nutrients, and couldn't walk but crawl.

The child had to receive a liver transplant to be cured.




Holding her child, the mother just shed endless tears.




The mother decided to give her liver to her child.


The mother and the child were hospitalized together.

The child cried because of pain and fear.

Though the mother had to go through many examinations, she cried feeling sorry for her child instead of her pain.

The mother gave her child one third of her liver.



Right after the child woke up from anesthetic, he was looking for his mother.

Mother is a person that can only be described with limited words, that is, ‘love.’ She really has something that is so great.



It reminded me about Heavenly Mother who is always sorry thinking that is insufficient, even though She gives out all of Her flesh and blood.


My God the Mother, who is still praying for me...


I give thanks again and again...

The will of God or the command of an emperor?

Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. (Matthew 7:21)

Even new Christians commonly know the Ten Commandments. The fourth commandment of the Ten is “Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.” However today, nearly all churches keep Sunday, the first day of the week, as the Lord’s Day instead of Saturday, the seventh day. Some even make illogical claims and absurd arguments such as “every day is the Sabbath day” or “Sunday is the seventh day.”

2,000 years ago, not only Jesus and his disciples but also the apostles and saints of the Early Church did not submit to Sunday Legislation enacted by a Roman Emperor and kept the Sabbath day to the end even though they were persecuted and martyred. They stuck to their noble faith while fleeing into the desert and mountains lest their religious purity should be trampled. But many people followed the Sunday Law of the Emperor. They threw away the Sabbath day of Jesus like an old shoe and kept the Sunday service. In return, they were given considerable power from the Roman Emperor.

Whose command should we follow? Will you obey the will of God whatever people say while expecting the kingdom of heaven? Or, will you submit to the command of the Emperor and continue to make vain efforts by keeping the Sunday service?

Are you still walking the opposite way to the will of God in accordance with the command of the specter of a Ruler who cried out for Sunday? Or, are you living a faith life in a vegetative state due to the influence of large churches and spineless denominations which have continuously repeated the division and unification according to the interests of people. If you are living a life of such lukewarm faith, how about leaving the contaminated church in search of the truth?

You will have to think a lot which faith will be considered to be obedient to the will of God, and reflect on the goal of your faith. Then, you will be able to realize the fact that the Sabbath day and the Passover should be kept according to the will of God.

The World Mission Society Church of God believes in God the Father and God the Mother according to the Bible

The World Mission Society Church of God believes in God the Father and God the Mother according to the Bible


One of things that many people misunderstand about the Bible is that there is only God the Father. However, the Bible clearly reveals that there exists God the Mother as well God the Father from the first page of the Bible.

Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea...." So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. (Genesis 1:26-27)

If there is only one God, God the Father, it should read ‘my image’ not ‘our image.’ In addition, only ‘male’ should have been created in the image of God the Father. But, is there only male created in the image of God? Isn’t there also ‘female’? The fact that male and female were created in the image of God is the evidence that God’s image includes God the Father and God the Mother. It’s very important to know the existence of God the Father and God the Mother because it’s prophesied that God the Father and God the Mother are to appear to give us the water of life in the last days.

The Spirit [God the Father] and the bride [God the Mother] say, "Come!" And let him who hears say, "Come!" Whoever is thirsty, let him come; and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of life. (Revelation 22:17)

Those who have met God the Father and God the Mother can receive the water of life. People who only know God the Father do not know God whom we must press on to know. The World Mission Society Church of God (WMSCOG) receives the water of life from the Spirit and the bride according to the words of the Bible.

Volunteers from the World Mission Society Church of God

[Mexico] Volunteers from the World Mission Society Church of God and a Kitlas organization cooperated to clean up the Pesquería River

Newspaper: ABC De Monterrey      
Date: January 28, 2013

Dozens of volunteers from the World Mission Society Church of God and a Kitlas organization, supported by the Monterrey Public Service, performed a clean-up campaign around the Pesquería River in Riberas del Rio, northwest of Monterrey.

Jose Luis Hernandez, a member of the Church of God, explained that this clean-up activity was designed to awaken universal our consciousness to improve the region in which we all live.

"The love of God makes us see and do things that we cannot do with our strength," said the young man. He also added that the environmental clean-up campaign has been being carried out simultaneously around the world.

He stressed that activities like this have been performed three times in Guadeloupe and two times in Monterrey since the beginning of 2012.

"We hope that this activity reaches the hearts of all people so that they can see beyond what they can do," said Hernandez.

The Courage to Face the Truth

Why do they deny and reject God the Mother whom the Bible teaches? Some would not acknowledge the truth even though the existence of God the Mother is proven from the Bible. Also, there are people who say that they just do not want to talk anymore because they have never heard such teachings while attending the church for several decades. The truth of God the Mother might sound very strange. So they sometimes say, “It’s a new view” or “it’s a new theory” since it’s very different from what they have known so far.

However, nobody boasts of ignorance. We need to listen to the words of the Bible with a humble mind if we have never been taught, don’t we? The truth of the Scriptures about God the Mother is “not” new. It’s recorded in the book of Genesis and also appears in the New Testament. It’s a precious truth which has been shared in the history of the Bible.

Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, in our likeness… So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. (Genesis 1:26-27)

But the Jerusalem that is above [the heavenly Jerusalem: GNT] is free, and she is our mother. (Galatians 4:26)

God the Mother, witnessed in the Bible, was the truth that was also present in the time of the Early Church. But the church became secularized in around the 4th century when it was united with the political power of the Roman Empire. During secularization, the church accepted pagan rituals and ideas which were rampant throughout the Empire.  Non-biblical doctrines appeared and, weirdly enough, Mary, who was just the physical mother of Jesus, took the place of God the Mother. Of course, the doctrine of virgin Mary was affected by pagan religion called the worship of “mother and son.”

God the Mother whom the Bible testifies about is the Savior and the Creator, while Mary, the mother of Jesus, was a mere creature like us.  Jesus also warned us not to regard His physical family members as someone godlike:

As Jesus was saying these things, a woman in the crowd called out, “Blessed is the mother who gave you [Jesus] birth and nursed you.” He replied, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.” (Luke 11:27-28)

The Roman Catholic Church distorted the truth of God the Mother and instead put up a false doctrine to believe in the false mother by calling a mere woman Mary “the Holy Mother.” Since then, the Catholic Church had exercised absolute power for more than one thousand years and no one had argued about its doctrines. But the corruption of the Roman Catholic Church reached its height during the late Middle Ages and at last its secular power collapsed when the Reformers appeared to obtain religious freedom and to restore the truth which had disappeared. They were the founders of Protestantism.

The Protestant churches declared that they were different from the Catholic Church. But their doctrines such as the Apostles’ Creed, Sunday service and Christmas were directly adopted from the non-biblical doctrines of the Roman Catholic Church.  In other words, their Reformation was incomplete because their restoration was imperfect and only partial amendments were made. Obviously, it it not biblical to “divinize” and rely on Mary for salvation. However, we should not only deny and reject it, but also restore the true truth of God the Mother.  The Protestant churches denied the truth of God the Mother itself.

The Scriptures clearly testify about God the Mother and it is written in Galatians 4:26. However, both Protestant and Catholic churches deny the truth about God the Mother. The former is the one that changed the truth, and the latter that seemingly understands the falsehood of Mary but insists that there is no God the Mother.  When we face the truth, we need the courage to make a decision.

For this people’s heart has become calloused; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts and turn, and I would heal them.’ (Matthew 13:15)

When the Jews faced the truth that Jesus was the Savior and God, they became so stubborn and insisted that it’s not true. Pilate, who was a judge, feared the Jews rather than the truth and played a role in Jesus’ death by turning Him over to be executed. Now, how would both the Jews and Pilate regret their choice?

You are facing the truth. Today, Christians turn their faces away from the truth of the Bible and act as if they were the Jews of 2000 years ago with a fixed idea that there is only one God — God the Father.  And some are hesitating to accept the truth although they see it. How about you? Will you persist that what you know is absolutely correct? Or, will you ignore the truth as if you did not know it? Or, will you be reluctant to make a decision because you think it’s difficult to suddenly change your belief?

There is God the Mother. We should receive God the Mother to get salvation. God still gives you an opportunity to become one of the prophets who can join and proclaim this truth.  Don’t be stubborn and don’t be reluctant. The blessings and the privileges to face the truth are given to those who make a brave decision.

Born through the Holy Spirit

This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit…. She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins. (Matthew 1:18-21)

Two thousand years ago, Jesus came to the earth as a human like us. He came in the flesh through the Holy Spirit. However, today’s Christians believe in that Jesus as God and say that salvation is only possible through Him. They acknowledge Jesus as the Savior though He came in the flesh. There is a reason we should believe in Jesus as God: He was born through the Holy Spirit according to the prophecy.

For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. (Isaiah 9:6)

But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, though you are small among the clans of Judah, out of you will come for me one who will be ruler over Israel, whose origins are from of old, from ancient times. (Micah 5:2)

Like this, in the Bible, it’s written that God would be born as a baby in Bethlehem. However, the people of Israel faithfully believed in the Savior ‘written in the Bible,’ but could not believe in the Savior ‘who came according to the prophecies.’ Thus, they shouted with certainty, “Crucify him!”

Today, Christians agree that we must not repeat the same mistake, criticizing the Israelites for such an act. However unfortunately, they are also repeating the same mistake committed by the people of Israel 2,000 years ago. They are rejecting the Second Coming Christ Ahnsahnghong who has come according to the prophecies of the Bible.

They say they cannot believe in Christ Ahnsahnghong by saying, “Jesus was born through the Holy Spirit, but Christ Ahnsahnghong was not.” And they add an absurd claim that one who was born of a virgin is through the Holy Spirit and one who was born of a couple is not.

Then, what does it mean to be born through the Holy Spirit? Not only Jesus was born after the Holy Spirit.  The Bible wrote that Isaac, Abraham’s only son, was also born after the Holy Spirit and we, who believe in God, are like Isaac. In other words, we are also born through the Holy Spirit.

Now you, brothers, like Isaac, are children of promise. At that time the son born in the ordinary way persecuted the son born by the power of the Spirit [after the Spirit: KJV]. It is the same now. (Galatians 4:28-29)

Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called . That is , They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed. For this is the word of promise, At this time will I come , and Sara shall have a son. And not only this; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one , even by our father Isaac; (For the children being not yet born , neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand , not of works, but of him that calleth;) It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger. As it is written , Jacob have I loved , but Esau have I hated. (Romans 9:7-13)

‘One through the Holy Spirit’ means one who is prophesied in advance before his/her birth like Isaac or Jacob and born according to such a prophecy. Therefore, Jesus is called ‘born through the Holy Spirit’ not because He was born of a virgin but because He came to the earth according to the prophecies.

Christ Ahnsahnghong is also prophesied in the Bible before His birth. The Bible foretold that the Second Coming Christ shall come a second time to bring salvation. There are many prophecies regarding where He would come from, when He would be born, when He would ascend to heaven and what He would do (Revelation 7:1-4; Isaiah 46:10-11; Isaiah 41:1-10; Matthew 24:32-33; Hebrews 9:28.) Christ Ahnsahnghong fulfilled all such prophecies, which proves that He was born through the Holy Spirit.

There is one thing we must know: we should not focus on how He was born but on whether He brought us the sign of the Christ -- the new covenant of the Passover. It was Christ Ahnsahnghong who brought us the sign of the Second Coming Christ -- the new covenant of the Passover -- and the Bible testifies that He is God (Isaiah 25:6-8.) Therefore, it’s clear that Christ Ahnsahnghong is ‘God who has come according to the prophecies of the Bible’ in this age.

In Galatians Chapter 4, the apostle Paul wrote said that brothers who remain within Heavenly Jerusalem are born after the Holy Spirit. How could he say that he and brothers who were not born of virgins were born after the Holy Spirit?

Parents of our bodies and Parents of our souls

A man does not consist of body only. Humans are a combination of body and soul.

... the LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground [body] and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life [soul], and the man became a living being (Genesis 2:7)

Therefore, if a man dies, the body and soul are separated and the soul returns to its former place.

... and the dust [body] returns to the ground it came from, and the spirit [soul] returns to God who gave it. (Ecclesiastes 12:7)

While the body which came from the ground returns to it, the soul which came from God returns to Him. Like this, body and soul are different and distinct in essence. So, the Bible says that our physical father and our Spiritual Father are not same:

Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of our spirits and live! (Hebrews 12:9)

If our physical father and our Spiritual Father were identical, our physical father becomes our Spiritual Father. Or, if a man were made of body only and had no soul, there would be only our physical father and there cannot be our Spiritual Father. However, the fact that there are our physical father and our Spiritual Father respectively proves that there exist body and soul individually. Then, who is the Father of our souls?

"This, then, is how you should pray: " 'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name... (Matthew 6:9)

The Father of all souls is God in heaven. But we have not only our physical father but also physical mother. Then, does there exist the Mother of our souls as well? Or, is there only Father? The answer can be found in the Bible.

But the Jerusalem that is above [the heavenly Jerusalem: GNT] is free, and she is our mother. (Galatians 4:26)

The Bible teaches us that there is our Mother as well as our Father in heaven. It's very strange. Why do we have to have our Father and Mother in heaven just as we have our father and mother on the earth? What's the reason?

For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse. (Romans 1:18-20)

All visible things were created by God to reflect God's invisible qualities--His eternal power and divine nature. Body and soul are clearly distinct elements. Our body cannot exist without our physical father and mother, which shows the principle that our soul also cannot exist without our Spiritual Father and Mother. The existence of our body causes us not to deny the existence of father and mother who gave it to us. Therefore, the existence of our soul proves the existence of Father and Mother who gave it to us.

The Bible is really the amazing Words of God which make us realize spiritual principles and God's divine nature through this world we are living in. We should know and believe in God the Father and God the Mother testified by the Bible and all things in this world.

Endless Love of Elohim God for the Sinner

A Half of a Fingernail

Being clumsy with the kitchen knife, I had a day when I almost cut half of my finger nail preparing a meal.

My finger wouldn’t stop bleeding, so I quickly put gauze over it and tied it up with some rubber band. By the time I almost finished preparing the meal, my hand was burning and sore.

As my tears that I held back dropped down my eyes, someone flitted through my mind.

The One who saved me with His precious blood…

“My Father.”

With that thought, I engraved God’s unfathomable love in my heart.

Even cutting almost a half of my fingernail approaches me as a fear of pain.

Having His whole body full of blood, how much pain would He had felt?

The pain that I had removing the gauze that wouldn’t just come off easily that clung on the skin, cannot be compared to Father’s pain; taking off the robe forcefully that clung on His body all covered with blood.

The reason why He did not open His mouth when He was oppressed and afflicted,

The reason why He did not open His mouth like a lamb to the slaughter,

It is for my transgressions, my iniquities, and to bring me peace.

After I, myself have experienced and felt the pain, my heart burned realizing God’s love towards me.

The One who loved me until His whole body was all sore,

The One who loved me even enduring the mockery of His creation,

With what kind of word from this world can we describe Father’s greatness?

Not even once, but He had endured twice, of the stinging pain of His whole body.

How can we dare know the end of God’s love for the sinner?

For God’s love, that nothing can exceed, I give all thanks with my whole heart.

How God the Mother considers me

Eat well and be healthy 

“Caitlyn, eat your breakfast!”

Without considering my urgent voice, there she goes again dawdling...

“If you don’t hustle, you wouldn’t make to school!”

Another usual talk that goes every morning to my seven-year-old daughter, wasting her time; not wanting to eat her breakfast.

As they always say, “breakfast is the most essential meal of the day,” my child would grow well when she had hardy breakfast, but when she didn’t, she would get sick quite often and wouldn’t grow.

I try my best for her to eat breakfast, but it doesn’t seem to work out easily.

One day, I happened to notice myself putting pressure on her to eat up her breakfast.

Though Heavenly Mother gave me spiritual food every day, I noticed that I was stubbornly dawdling like my daughter.

In the meantime, though I was preaching the words of life to others, I wasn’t quite full with the Holy Spirit, but lacking 2%. It was all because I haven’t taken my spiritual food regularly.

We need to eat three meals a day regularly for us to maintain a healthy body.

Likewise, I realized that we consistently needed to eat spiritual food with thanks, elaborately prepared by our Heavenly Mother for our souls to grow strongly.

Despite of all this, it was a common thing for me delaying; becoming all lazy and saying to myself, “I’m too busy today,” or “I have lots of things to do, I’ll do this tomorrow.”

Now I began to realize that I shouldn’t delay no more.

For me to realize, Mother showed myself through my daughter.

Through her, Mother makes me feel how Mother considers me and hastens me every morning for me to eat up my spiritual food.

For breakfast, I would have strengthening food called fragrance of Zion, for lunch, I would be ruminating with Father’s hidden manna - the truth of green feed, and for supper, I would be drinking Mother’s water of life that she pours down on us at all seasons of the year.

Through this, I would like to become a mature child who gives a smile on Mother’s face.

Not leaving this foolish, dying child all alone, reviving me with spiritual food, and leading me to the eternal kingdom of heaven; I give eternal thanks for Her great love and grace.

The reason it’s written that God ‘alone’ created the heavens and the earth while two God did

The Bible says that God the Father and God the Mother created the heavens and the earth.Then God [Elohim] said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground." So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. (Genesis 1:26-27)In Genesis Chapter 1 which described the process of the Creation, God is referred to as ‘Elohim,’ the plural form. In addition, the plural pronoun ‘Us’ was used. If there were only one God, God should been referred to as the singular noun ‘El’ or ‘Eloah,’ and the singular pronoun ‘Me’ should been used. God the Creator is not only one. From the passage “Male and female were created in the image of God,” we can understand that there are two Gods: God the Father and God the Mother.However, in other verse, it’s written that God ‘alone’ created the heavens and the earth.I am the LORD, who has made all things, who alone stretched out the heavens, who spread out the earth by myself (Isaiah 44:24)Why is it written that God ‘alone’ created the heavens and the earth in the book of Isaiah while it’s written that two Gods did in the book of Genesis? Is one of the two verses wrong? Or, is the Bible contradictory? No. God let us know the reason through Adam and Eve, the first man and woman, who were created in the image of God.For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh. (Genesis 2:24)It’s obvious that Adam and Eve are two individuals, who existed as a man and a woman respectively. However, it’s written that Adam and Eve will be united and become one flesh. Therefore, in the Bible, it’s referred to as one man or Adam as the representative when mentioning Adam and Eve together.Nevertheless, death reigned from the time of Adam to the time of Moses, even over those who did not sin by breaking a command, as did Adam, who was a pattern of the one to come. But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one man [Adam]… (Romans 5:14-15)It was not just Adam alone who committed the sin of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Both Adam and Eve ate from the tree of the knowledge; moreover Eve did first. However, the Bible wrote the sin of the tree of the knowledge as that of one man. It’s because Adam and Eve are considered one, being united, and Adam is referred to as the representative. This shows the reason it’s written that God ‘alone’ created the heavens and the earth, by uniting God the Father and God the Mother.Adam and Eve are the first man and woman, who were created in the image of God the Father and God the Mother. God expressed the sin of Adam and Eve as that of ‘one man’ and referred to Adam as the representative of the two. In the same way, while God the Father and God the Mother performed the Creation together, it’s expressed that God ‘alone’ did and God the Father is presented as the representative of the Creation Work.Some people deny the holy divine nature of two Gods seen through what has been made, without knowing the profound meaning of the Bible. However, the Bible clearly testifies to God the Father and God the Mother from the first Chapter of Genesis to the last Chapter of Revelation.

Who are they?

We can easily know who someone is through his actions.

For example, if a man is beating a wood block towards a Buddha statute repeating the name of Amitabha, he must be a Buddhist. Even though he does not mention his religion, we can recognize that he is a Buddhist by his actions.

And if some people gather in a specific place on Friday afternoon and bow down to Mecca, who are they? They are Muslims. Although they do not explain what religion they have, we can know they are Muslims by considering their actions.

By the way, there are people who keep Christmas, the birthday of Mithras or sun god, and Sunday, the worship day of sun god. Who are they?

He said to me, "Do you see this, son of man? You will see things that are even more detestable than this." He then brought me into the inner court of the house of the LORD, and there at the entrance to the temple, between the portico and the altar, were about twenty-five men. With their backs toward the temple of the LORD and their faces toward the east, they were bowing down to the sun in the east. (Ezekiel 8:15-16)

People worship sun god within the house of God where they have to give praise to and worship God. Such things are detestable to God. Those who participate in the sun god worship rituals are sun-god worshipers, not God's children. Their behaviors prove it.

Mother’s love everywhere

Mother’s love everywhere

On Sunday afternoon, I had some time left after preaching.   Suddenly, ‘Roola’ brought to my mind.  She was a female youth whom I met and studied the Bible with last week, even though I couldn't see her again because of her tight schedule since then. Hoping to see her to give a brochure, I headed for the shopping mall where she works.  I thought a short time should be enough to see her but the shopping mall was literally a sea of people.  I didn't even know how long it took to find the parking space.  Various kinds of people were fully packed, gathering together with family and friends.

Normally, I used to see her from a distance and turned back, worrying if she could feel uncomfortable, since her coworker and boss were always at the store.  That day, however, Roola was the only one at the store for some reasons, despite it was a very busy day.  I sincerely gave thanks to Father and Mother.  
I passed on the brochure about the Passover and Heavenly Mother to Roola, who felt sorry not to have contacted me because of her busy schedule.  We finally decided to meet again sometime and have a bible study together.  I was going to come back to Zion but it was difficult to do that because there were many people gathered together, who should hear of the good news about Heavenly Father and Mother.  So, I decided to take a few minutes to preach the words of God and then leave.  Now that people seemed to be free afternoon, there were many people who listened to preaching. Meanwhile, one female youth started to speak after watching UCC about the Spirit and the Bride.

“Oh, I know this.  It is about God Mother, isn't it?”

“Do you know Her?”

“Yes, God the Mother.  I have heard about it.”

Her name was Christy and she said she has heard about Heavenly Mother when she used to go to a University from 2 hours distance.  Moving in after graduating school, she lost contact with people who used to deliver the words of God to her but now, she could hear the truth about Heavenly Mother once again.  In the United States of America consisting of 50 states, it has large land and countless people enough to say there are 50 different countries gathered.  I was so glad to meet someone who has heard of the truth in this far place.  While preaching to others after exchanging contact numbers and saying hi to her, I could meet a female youth, ‘Christine’.  However, this youth clearly remember Heavenly Mother even though she said she couldn't study the Bible that much.  I strongly felt she must be the one Heavenly Mother is anxiously searching for. That way, I was given a mission to deliver the water of life to souls who have the seeds of words in hearts, which were scattered through Mother’s love.  At that moment, I could feel how much love Mother has toward even one single soul despite he/she does not realize the truth at all.  Mother does not give up on him/her and rather with full of care and efforts, She keeps sending the messengers so he/she could hear the truth again.

Under the love and sacrifice of Mother who never gives up one single soul, the gospel continues to be spread around the whole world.  Now I could see what the gospel is about with Mother’s heart and mind.  That day, Mother awoke me, who used to preach the words of God from a sense of duty at some point. 

I give thanks to God who allows this sinful child to step outside today and participate in the gospel of Mother’s love
