God the Mother can give us eternal life


The Heavenly Wedding Banquet
The Bible tells us that everything on this earth is a copy and shadow of what is in heaven (Heb 8:5). As we have a physical body, so we also have a spiritual body?a newly reborn body?which we, God’s children, will be clothed with when we go back to heaven. As we have our physical father and mother, so we have our spiritual Father and Mother who give birth to us and will change our physical body into a spiritual, heavenly body. We can find this fact in God’s providence over the creation.

Eternal life given in accordance with nature
Our ancestors would say that it’s natural that people should realize the will of Heaven and follow it, and that everything will go well when they do it in accordance with nature. Following nature means obeying the will of Heaven. God’s will be contained in all things He made, so following the principle of all things is the way to obey the will of Heaven.
Rev 4:9-11 『“. . . our Lord and God, . . . you created all things, and by your will they were created and have their being.”』
When God made all things, He created them by His will. No matter how much the world changes, it is impossible for a man to bear a child. Every male has his own duty as a man, and every female has her own duty as a woman, in accordance with the principle of God’s creation of mankind as male and female. So, it is natural that both of them should do their own duty. Ultimately, following the law or principle of nature means following God’s will for His creation.
God’s providence over creation is the will of God, and it is natural to follow it. Let’s find out what God has promised His people who follow His will.
1 Jn 2:25 『And this is what he promised us?even eternal life.』
Through all things on this earth, which are a copy and shadow, God shows us their realities?the things in heaven. The Old Testament and the New Testament mean the old covenant and the new covenant, respectively. So, it is not too much to say that all the books of the Old and New Testaments exist to testify about what God has promised?“eternal life.”
How is eternal life, which God has promised us, given to us? God already showed us the answer in His providence in creating all things. When we study the history of God’s work of creation in six days, recorded in the book of Genesis, we can see that God created man on the sixth and last day of the creation; God made the man Adam first, and then made Eve, saying, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.” By creating Eve God finished all His work of creation.
The most important reason why God created woman as a “helper for man” was because the fundamental role of giving birth, which men could not do, was given to women. All living things on the earth were born through their mothers. In other words, they are given life through their mothers. This principle of life shows the law of the invisible, heavenly world.

“The wedding of the Lamb has come”
The fact that we have our fathers on this earth implies that we have our Father in heaven. We also have our brothers and sisters on this earth, which shows that we have our brothers and sisters in heaven, too. Likewise, the fact that we have our mothers who gave us physical life on this earth shows us that we have our spiritual Mother who gave us eternal life which God promised us.
As we see through an earthly family, a new home is formed when a couple marries, and children are born through the couple?the main characters in the family. It is the same with the heavenly family. Jesus told us the parable of the heavenly wedding banquet as follows:
Mt 22:1-14 『Jesus spoke to them again in parables, saying: “The kingdom of heaven is like a king who prepared a wedding banquet for his son. He sent his servants to those who had been invited to the banquet to tell them to come, but they refused to come. . . . Then he said to his servants, ‘The wedding banquet is ready, but those I invited did not deserve to come. Go to the street corners and invite to the banquet anyone you find.’ So the servants went out into the streets and gathered all the people they could find, both good and bad, and the wedding hall was filled with guests. But when the king came in to see the guests, he noticed a man there who was not wearing wedding clothes. ‘Friend,’ he asked, ‘how did you get in here without wedding clothes?’ The man was speechless. Then the king told the attendants, ‘Tie him hand and foot, and throw him outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’ For many are invited, but few are chosen.”』
In the above parable, the king who prepared a wedding banquet for his son represents God, and the son, the bridegroom, stands for Jesus. Inviting people to the wedding banquet means gathering those who will be saved and go into the heavenly wedding banquet of eternal life. So, the Bible says that blessed are those who are invited to the wedding banquet.
Rev 19:9 『Then he said to me, “Write, ‘Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.’ ” . . . 』
In the parable of the wedding banquet in Matthew, however, the bride?the heroine of the wedding?is missing. This shows us that the time did not yet come for the heavenly wedding banquet to be held. Then, when is the prophecy about the wedding of the Lamb to be fulfilled?
Rev 19:6-8 『. . . “ . . . Let us rejoice and be glad and give him glory! For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his bride has made herself ready. Fine linen, bright and clean, was given her to wear.” (Fine linen stands for the righteous acts of the saints.)』
The wedding of the Lamb has an appointed time. In the parable of the wedding banquet in Matthew, the bride didn’t appear. However, in Revelation, John said that the bride of the Lamb made herself ready. Revelation is a book of prophecy that Apostle John wrote around A.D. 96 when he saw in a vision what would take place in the future. Therefore, the event that Revelation 19:7 speaks about?“The wedding of the Lamb has come, and his bride has made herself ready”?is to take place at Jesus’ second coming.

Our heavenly Mother is the Bride of the Lamb
Now, we need to find out who the bride, the wife of the Lamb, who has made herself ready, is. Jesus said that there are two kinds of people: those to whom the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given, and those to whom it has not been given (Mt 13:10-11).
The people, who have received a wedding invitation from the bridegroom and bride, know them and their names as well, but those who are not invited can’t know them or their names at all. Only those who are chosen and invited to the wedding feast of the Lamb can know this secret. As the Bible says, “Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb!” the knowledge of the Lamb and His bride at the heavenly wedding banquet is a blessing given only to those who are chosen from among the six billion people.
Rev 21:9-10 『One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb.” And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God.』
Gal 4:26 『But the Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our mother.』
The angel said to John that he would show him the “bride, the wife of the Lamb,” and then showed him Jerusalem. Here, we can see that Jerusalem represents the wife of the Lamb.
Jerusalem is our spiritual Mother who gives us eternal life. Without our spiritual Mother, a new life can’t be born. When God created all things, He let them receive life through their mothers. This is God’s will and providence.

Salvation and blessing given through Mother
In God’s work of redemption for 6,000 years, the greatest promise is eternal life given by Mother. There were so many forefathers of faith and prophets who lived in accordance with God’s will, but they didn’t receive this promise of eternal life. This promise of blessing is to be given when Mother the new Jerusalem appears in the last days.
Heb 11:38-40 『the world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and mountains, and in caves and holes in the ground. These were all commended for their faith, yet none of them received what had been promised. God had planned something better for us so that only together with us would they be made perfect.』
The promise of God, eternal life, can only be given by the coming of our spiritual Mother. Now, we are living in a very important age when this promise of eternal life is granted. God has chosen us to be the most refined people in His work of redemption for 6,000 years, and now He leads us to the kingdom of heaven. That’s why God has made known to us the core of the 66 books of the Bible, and has acknowledged us, who are following Mother in this age, as those who have the best faith.
Without the appearance of Mother, no one can get eternal life. Jesus said, “Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life” (Jn 6:53-54), when He established the Passover. We need to understand the providence of God. If salvation had been able to be fulfilled by Jesus’ establishing the Passover of the new covenant at His first coming, the age of the Holy Spirit would not have been required. The meaning of the Passover bread and wine can only be fulfilled when the existence of our heavenly Mother is revealed.
God divided the redemption period of six thousand years into three ages?the age of the Father, the age of the Son and the age of the Holy Spirit, and made plans for our salvation in each age. In God’s work of creation in six days, the last thing God did was to create Eve. This shows that salvation can be completed by our Mother who is to appear in the last days. That’s why in John 6 Jesus repeated the same words, “I will raise him up at the last day,” even four times.
Without Eve, a woman, life cannot be born. This precious secret of eternal life has been given to us in this age. Since we have received freely the promise of the greatest blessing, which cannot be replaced with anything else in the world, we must not neglect our salvation.
From the creation of the world, God has prophesied about the existence of our heavenly Mother who gives us spiritual birth.
Ge 3:20 『Adam named his wife Eve, because she would become the mother of all the living.』
The Bible tells us that Adam represents the one to come, Jesus (Ro 5:14). Since Adam stands for Jesus, we can easily understand that Eve, the wife of Adam, represents the wife of Jesus, the Lamb. Adam named his wife “Eve.” The name “Eve” means “life” (see note on Ge 3:20). Jesus, represented by Adam, named His wife “Eve,” which means “life.” Through this, Jesus showed us that it is His will for life to be born through His wife. The ultimate fruit of God’s redemption work for 6,000 years is eternal life, and the One who is indispensable for giving eternal life is our Mother, the wife of the Lamb, represented by Eve.

The Spirit and the Bride give us the water of life
Without Mother, there is no eternal life. Without Mother, there is no truth. Those who do not believe in Mother can’t receive the promise of eternal life and the kingdom of heaven.
In the last chapter of the Bible, we can see that the water of life is given to those who realize our heavenly Father and Mother, who are the Bridegroom and the Bride at the heavenly wedding banquet, and come to the wedding feast.
Rev 22:17-19 『The Spirit and the bride 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. I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book. And if anyone takes words away from this book of prophecy, God will take away from him his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book.』
The Spirit is our Father, and the bride is the wife of our Father, so she is our Mother. Our Father and Mother both give us the water of life, but the Bible describes God as a singular entity. It’s because God the Father is the representative of the heavenly family. In the book of Romans, it is written that sin entered the world through one man, Adam (Ro 5:12). This shows that the Bible views Adam as a representative, considering Eve as a part of Adam. Since Eve was created from the rib of Adam, the Bible says that they became one flesh (Ge 2:21-24). Also, people have the view that husband and wife are one. This view is originated from the providence of God.
However, in the New Testament, Mother is described as a completely separate entity. It’s because we can only be born to eternal life when our Father and Mother appear in the last days. The Bible testifies so clearly that there are the Spirit and the Bride who give us the water of life. Nevertheless, some people deny the existence of the Bride. The Bible concludes by saying that such people can never enter the everlasting kingdom of heaven.
There are so many churches in the world today, as numerous as the sands by the sea. However, they do not know the heavenly Mother, nor do they believe in Her or call upon Her. The heavenly Father and Mother, who give eternal life, are not their Gods, and the privilege to know Them is not given to them.
The Bible says, “Blessed are those who participate in the wedding banquet,” or, “Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding feast.” We can see that the blessed people, who are invited to the everlasting heavenly wedding banquet, are those who believe the truth about God the Father and also realize and believe the truth about Mother completely. I hope that we all God’s sons and daughters will keep our faith in the Spirit and the Bride, who have called us to receive the water of life, until the end, so that our mortal bodies can be changed into spiritual bodies.

God the Mother of Sacrifice and Love


The Bible says that God is love (1 Jn 4:8). Until we have got where we are today, there have been God the Father who established the new covenant-the truth of life-through His sacrifice and God the Mother who spares no effort to lead us to the eternal kingdom of heaven even at this moment.

Father's love is unmeasurable, and Mother's love is even more unfathom-able, so we cannot grasp the depths of Her love for us. From Mother comes the power that enables the members of Zion to help one another and to become united in love. The endless sacrifice and love of Mother are defeating all the hindrances of Satan in the invisible spiritual world and are leading us, Her children, to victory. Now, let's take some time to confirm this fact through the Bible.


A lavish love

A long time ago, a teacher and his students made a long journey in order to obtain enlightenment. While walking along the road, they discussed about what the greatest love in the world is. When they arrived at a village, many human bones were found heaped up together. A sudden accident or disaster had probably overtaken the whole village.

Looking at so many human bones laying twisted and tangled up together, the teacher seemed suddenly struck by a thought, and asked his students if they could find a woman's bone among those bones. His students just looked at one another's faces, unable to select a woman's bone easily.

Then the teacher picked up one of the bones, and said it was the bone of a woman. His students asked how he could recognize a woman's bone so easily among those numerous bones. The teacher explained the reason to them as follows:

"Think about a woman's life first. When she is young, she is always treated as less than a man just because she is female. When she gets married and becomes pregnant, she provides all the nourishment in her body to her unborn baby. When she gives birth to her child, she has to shed blood. Moreover, when she breast-feeds her baby, all the nutrients in her body are passed on to her child through her breast milk. Since she does so, how can the nutrients remain in her bones? Such a bitter and sacrificial life of a woman has made her bone light and dark like this."

Listening to the teacher, his students were all reminded of their mothers. ‘Such is the life of a mother. She only gives her children everything, but there is nothing she can do for herself.' As they realized this, they became solemn for a while. They were deeply moved to hear their teacher say that a mother gives her children everything-even the marrow of her bones-in the process of being pregnant, giving birth to them and raising them. Thinking of their mothers, they all shed tears.

A mother is the one who gives unconditional love to her children. She only gives her children everything she has. Why is the life of every mother on this earth so devotional? Why did God make a mother into such a sacrificial being?

A mother continuously tries to give everything to her children with careful concern for them, wishing them to succeed and prosper in life, even though she herself suffers a lot. This love and sacrifice is the nature of a mother. I believe that God has put the spirit of love and sacrifice in the hearts of mothers on this earth because it is the spiritual nature of our Heavenly Mother.


Those who love Jerusalem, and those who do not serve Jerusalem

Like the disciples in the above story, who obtained realization from what their teacher said and were moved to tears, thinking of their mothers, we shall also realize the sacrifice and love of our spiritual Mother and engrave it deep in our hearts.

Isa 66:10-14 『"Rejoice with Jerusalem and be glad for her, all you who love her; rejoice greatly with her, all you who mourn over her. For you will nurse and be satisfied at her comforting breasts; you will drink deeply and delight in her overflowing abundance." For this is what the LORD says: "I will extend peace to her like a river, and the wealth of nations like a flooding stream; you will nurse and be carried on her arm and dandled on her knees. As a mother comforts her child, so will I comfort you; and you will be comforted over Jerusalem." When you see this, your heart will rejoice and you will flourish like grass; the hand of the LORD will be made known to his servants, but his fury will be shown to his foes.』

In Galatians it is written, "But the Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our mother" (Gal 4:26). So, "those who love Jerusalem" means "those who love their spiritual Mother." Mother has given us everything-Her flesh and blood and even Her bones, until She has nothing left to give and Her bones become very light. We must realize how much Mother gives us and how much pain and sorrow She endures behind the scenes.

God bestows His blessings on those who realize the love of Jerusalem Mother, and He pours out His wrath upon those who do not realize Her love and turn away from Her.

Isa 60:1-12 『"Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD rises upon you. See, darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the LORD rises upon you and his glory appears over you. Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawn. Lift up your eyes and look about you: All assemble and come to you; your sons come from afar, and your daughters are carried on the arm. . . . Who are these that fly along like clouds, like doves to their nests? Surely the islands look to me; in the lead are the ships of Tarshish, bringing your sons from afar, with their silver and gold, to the honor of the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, . . . For the nation or kingdom that will not serve you will perish; it will be utterly ruined."』

The above prophecy of Isaiah 60 sings the glory of Jerusalem that is to appear in the future. It also proclaims God's warning that on the last day He will judge all peoples and nations that do not serve Jerusalem.


Proclaim the glory of Jerusalem to the whole world

In order for God's people, who were small and weak, to become a mighty nation, they should display the glory of Jerusalem throughout the world. God our Father told us to proclaim Jerusalem's glory to the whole world without rest.

Isa 60:21-22 『"Then will all your people be righteous and they will possess the land forever. They are the shoot I have planted, the work of my hands, for the display of my splendor. The least of you will become a thousand, the smallest a mighty nation. I am the LORD; in its time I will do this swiftly."』

Isa 62:6-7 『I have posted watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem; they will never be silent day or night. You who call on the LORD, give yourselves no rest, and give him no rest till he establishes Jerusalem and makes her the praise of the earth.』

The Bible repeatedly urges us not to stop spreading the glory of Jerusalem all over the world. If we understand Mother's boundless sacrifice, love and pain, we should proclaim Her glory to the ends of the earth.

Through mothers on this earth, we can understand the sacrifice and love of Heavenly Mother even a little bit. Every earthly system, everything done on this earth, is a copy and shadow of what is in heaven, and God created all things by His will (Heb 8:5; Rev 4:11).

If the love of a father is an invisible fence that surrounds us and keeps us safe, the love of a mother works more directly and closely with her children. Suppose an urgent situation where children are caught in a fire. When this happens, fathers tend to judge the situation rationally, but mothers judge it sensitively. Fathers are likely to make a rational judgment: ‘Since the fire has become this big, if I fail to get them out of the fire within a few seconds, both of us will die.' On the other hand, mothers run into the fire first in order to save their children. A mother's love is so unconditional.


Victory given through Mother's sacrifice and love

Thus, we are growing in the love of Mother who lavishly sacrifices everything to save us, Her children. That's why we, the offspring of the woman, can win the spiritual war against Satan in the end.

Ge 3:15 『"And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel."』

God said that He would put enmity between the serpent and the woman. The woman is described as the "mother of all the living" (Ge 3:20). The woman (Mother) and the serpent (Satan) are enemies to each other. The offspring of the woman and the offspring of the serpent are also enemies to each other.

The devil our enemy sets all sorts of traps and snares in order to tempt us to disobey the holy will of our heavenly Mother. He devises many schemes to make us waste our time on earthly things that are meaningless and transient.

In order to resist the temptations of Satan and to win victory over him, we absolutely need to make efforts to obey Jerusalem Mother and put Her words into practice, with love for Her. Heavenly Mother is working even at this moment, sparing no pains, for us Her children. How about us? What are we doing now? Are we not absorbed in things for physical comfort and pleasure and wasting our time on such worthless things? Or, are we trying to save souls while giving and sharing, along with Mother? We need to reflect on ourselves.

Rev 12:9 『The great dragon was hurled down-that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.』

Rev 12:17 『Then the dragon was enraged at the woman and went off to make war against the rest of her offspring-those who obey God's commandments and hold to the testimony of Jesus.』

The great dragon was hurled down, and the identity of the dragon was discovered to be the serpent in the Garden of Eden. The serpent was expelled from heaven, and is opposing the woman on this earth.

In the Bible, the dragon or the serpent refers to Satan the devil. Satan was enraged at God the Mother and went off to make war against the rest of Her offspring-those who obey God's commandments and hold to the testimony of Jesus. Although Satan is reigning over numerous people like the sand of the sea, he is destined to lose every war.

Rev 20:7-10 『When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth-Gog and Magog-to gather them for battle. In number they are like the sand on the seashore. They marched across the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of God's people, the city he loves. But fire came down from heaven and devoured them. And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.』

The spiritual warfare between the serpent and the woman-between the offspring of the serpent and the offspring of the woman-is to end with the punishment of the dragon in an unquenchable fire where he will be tormented forever and ever.

Satan can never triumph over Mother. Since Mother has "love" the greatest power, how can Satan win?

The power that enables God's children to be victorious is the endless love of Mother who protects Her children, even at the risk of Her own life. So, those who love Jerusalem display Her glory wherever they are, and proclaim Her holy sacrifice and love to the ends of the earth.


Salvation achieved through sacrifice

Satan is doomed to be tormented in the eternal fire of hell. Now, let's see where God our Mother is leading us, Her children.

Rev 22:1-5 『Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. No longer will there be any curse. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city, and his servants will serve him. They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads. There will be no more night. They will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give them light. And they will reign for ever and ever.』

God our Mother has continuously guarded and protected us, Her loving children, from every evil scheme of Satan to lead us to the way of eternal life and to ultimately raise us as the heavenly royal priesthood who will reign forever and ever. Until She has done that, spiritually Her flesh and bones have become so weak and frail. Everything good has been taken by Her children. She has given Her children all things that can help them. The six thousand year long period has been a series of such spiritual struggles. We can fully understand it even though we do not hear the explanation regarding how light and frail a woman's bone is.

Those who do not realize the love of Jerusalem our heavenly Mother cannot stand at the position of the heavenly royal priesthood. They cannot resist and overcome the power of Satan. Only when we cherish the love of Mother and put it into practice, we will be able to become "those who overcome" (Rev 3:12), just as Mother has won eternal victory.

Preaching without love is lifeless. It is only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. Only when we fill our hearts with God's holy love, we can preach sincerely and practice true love. Mother's love that works within us enables us to take care of one another, to correct someone if he or she has a wrong thought and to help another out if he or she goes astray, so that we will all be able to enter the kingdom of heaven together.

Let's share the love we have received from Mother with our brothers and sisters and with our neighbors and all people around the world, who have not received the truth yet, so that the glorious way can be opened for them all to fly into the arms of Heavenly Mother like clouds, like doves to their nests, according to the prophecy of Isaiah. As children of Mother, we should also care about many people around us with love for them, always remembering that the source of love is Heavenly Mother, and should repay Mother for the love we have received from Her. I earnestly hope that all our brothers and sisters in Zion will follow Mother wherever She leads us and give glory, praise and thanks to Her all the time.

Heavenly Father and Mother want us all to become a royal priesthood in heaven. Elohim have told us not to lose the glorious position but hold on to it, so that no one will take our crowns (Rev 3:11). Serving Heavenly Mother and receiving Mother's abundant love, let us preach the gracious love of life-the heavenly love-to all people around the world and provide the love to them as much as we can, so that we will all go to the eternal kingdom of heaven together.

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.

Christ Ahnsahnghong is our God truly



Jesus warned that false Christs and false prophets would appear and mislead many people:
At that time if anyone says to you, 'Look, here is the Christ!' or, 'There he is!' do not believe it. 24 For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect--if that were possible. 25 See, I have told you ahead of time. 26 "So if anyone tells you, 'There he is, out in the desert,' do not go out; or, 'Here he is, in the inner rooms,' do not believe it. (Matthew 24:23-26)
However, some unfairly use this verse to oppose the Second Coming Christ. If, we literally must not believe it when we are told “Here is the Christ”, where do we have to go? Do we need to go to the place where it says “Here isn’t the Christ and there he isn’t”? Are there any churches which do not say “Here is the Christ”?
Therefore, Jesus did not give us this word with the intent that we must deny Christ when He comes in any cases. As written, it’s clearly about warning people of false Christs. 
Then, where can we find the true Christ and not false Christs?
And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: "The deliverer [Savior: GNT] will come from Zion; he will turn godlessness away from Jacob. (Romans 11:26)
It’s prophesied that the Savior would come from Zion. Where is Zion in which the Savior dwells?
Look upon Zion, the city of our festivals … There the LORD will be our Mighty One… For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king; it is he who will save us. (Isaiah 33:20-22)
Zion where the Savior dwells is the place where we celebrate the feasts of God. God’s feasts include a weekly feast of the Sabbath and seven annual feasts of the Passover, the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the Day of Firstfruits, the Pentecost, the Feast of Trumpets, the Day of Atonement and the Feast of Tabernacles. The place where people celebrate such feasts as written in the Bible is “Zion.”
However, the place where people do not observe the feasts of God while saying “Here is the Christ” is the one where they believe in ‘false Christs’ or ‘another Jesus (2 Corinthians 11:4).’ The Bible prophesies as follows about the appearance of Christ who gives us the water of life:
The Spirit and the bride 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)
You can meet the Sprit and the bride who give us the water life only in Zion.

Christ Ahnsahnghong has come in the flesh?


“But do not have God speak to us or we will die.”
The people of Israel cried out to Moses. They felt they could die because the words of God sounded like the great thunder and lightning and the trumpet to them. They’re scared. When they heard the words of God from Moses who alone was able to hear the voice of God, they could follow the will of God (in the Desert of Sinai at the time of Exodus.)

“It thundered or an angel spoke to him.”
Many people heard the words of God but they said it had thundered. But, the Apostle Paul heard the voice of God correctly and wrote: “I have glorified it, and will glorify it again.” Through John, people could listen to the words of God correctly (at Ephesus in around 90 A.D.)

Both in the time of Exodus and in around 90 A.D., people were not able to hear the voice of Almighty God. As creatures, they could not bear the words of God, which sounded like the thunder and lightning. For this reason, God came to the earth as a man in the appearance of a creature, hiding His power and glory.

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

And He let God’s children know the way to salvation one by one and set examples for us. Putting Him in the shoes of the Son like us, He taught how we can follow the words of God to get salvation.

I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. (John 13:15)
Jesus set the example of ‘being baptized’ as a sign of salvation (Matthew 3:13-16.) And He also set the example of ‘keeping the Sabbath’ for us to get the blessing of rest (Luke 4:16,) and the example of ‘observing the Passover’ which promises the blessing of the forgiveness of sins (Matthew 26:19.) In addition, He asked His children as follows just before He ascended to heaven:

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. (Matthew 28:19-20)

It's the mind of God. God worried that His children might not be able to follow the way of salvation. So He carefully set examples one by one. Can you hear the words of God? “Please, follow the way I walked. Let’s go to our hometown -- the kingdom of heaven.

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.

God the Mother really exists!



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.
