INTRODUCE SHINCHEONJI

                                   Introduce  Shincheonji

“But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, 

the home of righteousness.”

                                                          - 2 Pt 3:13 -

This word tells you about the hope that we would look forward to.

What is your hope in your religion?

I'm found it in bible through Shincheonji.

Have you ever heard about Shincheonji?

I want to introduce Shincheonji to you.

The Name of the Church 

: shincheonji church of Jesus, Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony.

Shinchoji is the abbreviation of ‘New Heaven and New Earth,’ and it signifies the new tabernacle and new saints.

(2 Pt 3:13; Mt. 13:31-32; Rev 14:1-5; Rev 15:2-5)

Why The name is shincheonji ?

Just as Moses built a tabernacle on earth based on the patterns God had shown him from heaven,

the creation of Shinchonji here on earth today is also based on what the Promised Pastor had seen in the spiritual realm.

This is God’s Kingdom, which is created here on earth as it is in heaven, and its name is Shinchonji

Why The name is church of Jesus ?

Church of Jesus means that the Lord of the Temple of Shinchonji is Jesus as it is indicated in its name.

The Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony

The Temple of Tabernacle of the Testimony is the temple of those have seen, heard and testify the Revelation.

It is also referring to the holy house where saints worship God. 

In addition, the Temple of Tabernacle of the

Testimony is the promised temple where all nations must come to be healed and worship the Lord. (Rev 15:4-5)

Shincheonji is the nation of God, created by Him to fulfill what is in heaven on this earth in today’s time.

Furthermore, it is a holy temple where the priests and people of God who will receive salvation within God, the creation that He has been working to gather for 6000 years, belong to. 

Shinchoji Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony strives to heal the nation by following God’s will of testifying the revelation, what the church has heard and witnessed.

Shinchonji Graduation Speech

“Because the congregation members, whom I loved, were always on my mind…”

The story of one pastor who willingly became a harvest sickle for his congregation
members that he loved dearly

I was born as a farmer’s son. I pursued the life of faith my mother led. Although I was
young at the time, I served and worked hard for God in many ways and later on even
had a vision to preach the word. And as time passed by, I became a pastor.

I started my life as a pastor by re-opening a closed church up in the mountains and
guided service from then on. As I continued to guide the services for a period of time,
the church was revived, soon regaining its stability.

With a grateful heart, I promised to make more of an effort as a pastor in front of God,
and when I did, I moved to a bigger church to carry out pastoral duties. Anyone could
see that I worked hard

However, the more effort I continued to make, the more I would reach my limits. I was
guilty about myself because it felt like I was only making an effort on the outside.

And then one day, I heard unfortunate news that a pastor, whom I knew personally,
passed away. So, I went to visit the pastor’s wife. This is how she and I became close.
After the pastor’s death, his wife was the first to encounter this word of truth, and she
would ask me if I wanted to learn it as well. She was my precious harvest worker.

Of course, I had no clue about any of this, so it raised suspicions for me and my wife.
We both kindly rejected her proposal. However, she was persistent and in the end,
we gave in and decided to study with a somewhat assurance that God would guide us
according to his will.

The instructor would make his way to teach us by personally coming to the woman’s
house.

The first thought I had in mind was, “Isn’t this the teaching of a cult?” I put up
my guard with the suspicions and disapproval towards the word, but as I began to
understand the word, I was assured that the word was true! All this time when I studied
and examined the Bible, my thirst for the word was never satisfied; it was like digging
into a spring that had no water. I didn’t understand myself, yet I was teaching people the
teachings of man. I was a frustrated blind but once the words opened up my eyes, I was
overjoyed.

I still can’t forget the deep impression I received when I had the assurance that only
through the promised pastor, promised tabernacle and promised theology school can
God’s and our hope of heaven be fulfilled.

From the basic knowledge of the Bible to gradually going deeper into the study, I
realized that all this time when I thought I was preaching God’s word as a pastor, I was
actually a wolf in a sheep’s clothing preaching things that were mine. And, the reality
that the Christian world was full of untruth really woke me up. It was heart-rending and
troubling to hear that besides Shinchonji, God was not with the any of the churches. I
was embarrassed at my pathetic and miserable self.

Of course, there were many troubles and difficulties along the way because I couldn’t
give up my belief system, a frame I was stuck in. However, I was able to perceive in
repentance, gratitude and happiness within God’s grace.

Now, I couldn’t stay still when I perceived the word of life!

I decided I could no longer preach the teachings of man in vain when I plainly knew the
truth.

The instructor guided me in the studies and with what I learned, I taught the
congregation members.

I could see the change in the congregation member after learning the word. They
were becoming a true believer. I was so happy as if I had become a priest inside the
Bible. My wife, who was learning the word as well, had many doubts, questions and
earthquakes, but the more she learned, the more she came to realize and believe that this
work was not the work of man but the work of God.

It has been already four months since I started the study, and now I finally began the
work of harvest at the church I was guiding. Regarding this, my wife would respond,
“If you get caught, that’s the end to your pastor duties there.” My wife was worried,
but that didn’t stop me from making a claim. This was because as I was watching the
congregation members change according to the word, I saw a form of heaven.

It was one day when the Bible study was slowly coming to an end. An elder, who
opposed the idea of Bible studying and held seminars at three times, spoke to me one
day with a look of suspicion in his eye, “Pastor, you seem to be preaching well, but one
might mistake it to be teachings of a cult.” The moment I heard this I became uneasy.
However, I couldn’t quit the harvest work that I had been doing so far.

The elder hasn’t exactly lived according to the word, which this impropriety was later
on revealed to the congregation members, resulting in a lost of trust. So, the elder
and assistant pastor was looking for a fault within me so they could replace me with
different pastor.

Thinking this was their chance, they spread a rumor saying that the pastor joined a cult
and was trying to destroy the church. They told me to hold responsibility for this, then
they suggested for me to retire. Once this incident struck, my wife and two daughters,
who have passed over in the center, would say multiple times, “It was an inevitable
matter. Let’s go to Zion.”

However, it wasn’t an easy decision to make due to the thought of leaving the
congregation members, who did not yet know this word and whom I loved very much,
behind. In addition, I had to admit that I was troubled, considering the responsibility to
take care of the family and the financial difficulties that I had to face.

In the end, I made a decision to leave all matters to God and retired.
My fellow pastors
and along with people I knew, who were unaware that I had met the word of light, heard
the retirement news. They worried by saying, “You’re a fool for not having a plan.How can you just come out like that without a guarantee?”

However, I had hope in the
promise and thinking how Abraham left his motherland, I answered, “I will show how
God will lead me.” I made this resolution over and over again.

But what was a relief was that even in a difficult situation that we were in, my wife was
steadfast and did not look back like Lot’s wife. I was very thankful for that.

The result of relying and fully believing in God was that me, my wife and two daughters
were able to at last pass over and enter God’s kingdom, Shinchonji Temple of the
Tabernacle of Testimony. And although there were many difficulties and persecutions
faced in the process, 22 of us have successfully graduated through God’s full guidance
in grace and truth.

Moreover, coming to heaven and seeing harvesters receiving training and working hard,
happiness and hope in me grew. I felt terrible that everyone could not be harvested, but I
told myself that I won’t give up until the end. I will harvest and pray so many souls can
be led to heaven.

Hired pastors become corrupt because they are unaware that they are being deceived
by Satan’s power. They only care about satisfying their own needs.

The nation knows
they are under the teachings of man and their ecclesiastically authority and that this is
the wrong path. Yet they are unable to come to an understanding.

Healing the nation
through the word of truth is the path to atone your sins. Remember that this is the path
to pay back for the grace God bestowed upon you. I will work hard to learn the new
song and become a leaf of the tree of life that diligently conveys the word.

The life I led without the word of truth as a priest was wrong!

This is a story about a priest who traded 27 years of his life as a priest with 27 years of
Shinchonji for the truth.

This content is on page 9 of “City of Truth Beautiful Shinchonji” advertising
newspaper.

I was born in an atheist family as the third son out of five children. Since I was little,
I dreamed of giving up my life to help the neglected people. Later on, I became a
Catholic before any of my family members and soon received a calling as a priest.

First of all, I wanted to evangelize my family, but it took about not 14 days but 14
years for my family to believe. After meeting the conditions the Theology school was
demanding, my family was able to begin their own life as a priest.

In this world, it’s not normal to find a guy in a skirt. A person having to restrain from
everything in the world, to be honest but poor, to be pure, to wear absolute clothes of
obedience, to entirely sacrifice one’s youth and passion and to promise to live alone
unmarried is a Catholic priest.

The path of a priest to me is a special and holy path pursuing the truth on the neglected
people’s part.

For 13 years, I was with the children on the streets and then returning to my homeland,
I finished my duty as a priest in the Parish Church. After, living with beggars for 6
years, I made plans for my new dream. I was awaiting good news that would help the
neglected people.

However, as much as to my surprise, it all started with my sister-in-law and youngest
brother.

One day, my sister-in-law said to me, “When you know the seed, greed for this world
will disappear. You see Heaven. You can meet the truth God! And when the leaf on the
branch prospers, the holy spirit will come flying to make a nest.”

As it went differently than expected, I could’ve have refused to listen to it, but this
interpretation of the Bible was new and fresh to me.

My sister-in-law told me that anyone was allowed to study being ecumenical, even a
Buddhist monk was studying for that matter. So, without any suspicions, I decided to
study.

However, I did not expect 27 years of my life as a priest to be traded for 27 years of
Shinchonji at all.

The day I made the choice to leave the parsonage to be born again through the word of
truth, and the day I also made a painful decision, coincidentally, it was the anniversary
of my father’s death.

Anyway, that’s how I started the study. Thinking back now, it was a miracle and I don’t
think I could go through with it again even if I tried. Reason being is that I met the
instructor at the parsonage. Every time the words were interpreted into their rightful
meaning, it was hard to keep my tears of shock and surprise in.

Until now, I have attended Mass everyday in sacrifice and service. I fervently hoped for
many souls to be saved as bread and wine became Jesus’ flesh and blood. There were
many believers who came to confess their deeds, so I gave them the sacraments and
recited the Scriptures of Absolution to remove their sins. And I believed this to be the
path of salvation, but I have now learned that it was merely a shadow, not the real thing.

No matter how true the word may be how could you make the ancient traditions of
Catholicism go up in smoke in just one moment? This regrettable incident forced only
an empty laughter out of me.

So, as there is a difference between God’s thoughts and man’s thoughts, God’s path and
man’s path differs as well. ‘

But it was a first to feel this hopeful as my spirit was being born again through the
word. I couldn’t help but admit that everything that I had possessed were merely the
teachings of man, and as I lowered myself being in front of the truth, I could get a taste
of real happiness which I couldn’t have tasted before.

Then one day studying at the parsonage, a nun must’ve suspected something. “Priest!
I heard Christian praying in the halls!” she said with suspicion. I hid my baffled mind
and covered up the awkward situation by telling her that I was studying Divinity
Psychology.

This is was because the Bible was needed to study Divinity Psychology; however, there
was no place to study in Catholic besides Rome, so the instructor who I learned from
was introduced to me as an exchange professor from Rome.

I was good at studying, so I went overseas to study at Rome, Italy. This place
was actually Zion Christian Center at Busan. The study at center deepened my
understanding day by day, and at last, it came to a point where I could no longer preach
the morning sermon using false truth.

However, after 87 nuns and 800 students listened to the new sermon, they began to
offensively ask questions. “Priest! Where did this doctrine come from?” “Please, just
continue with your previous divinity sermon’s!” they said as their faces turned red.

There was a time when I toured the nation preaching Divinity sermons, but now, in the
mornings I was studying at the Center, in the afternoon I was listening to the lecture
tapes, and at night I was memorizing verses. Therefore, I was confused to which one
was my Divinity sermon but couldn’t find it as a result.

I prayed, “God, please!” Please allow me to preach my Divinity sermons at the Morning
Mass like I did before!” However, God would steal my lips and every time he did, the
nuns came our more aggressive. Leaving my body to the floor, I would lie down the
whole day feeling horrible.

Amidst this confusion, I was browsing through the internet until I came coincidentally
came across a Shinchonji slandering video by a person who once belonged to
Shinchonji but left. His logic on slandering Shinchonji seemed reasonable. And the
style of the instructor’s interpreting of the parables were exactly the same as it was in
the video.

What is happening? Are you telling me I have fallen into a cult?

In a baffled state, I called my youngest sibling right away. “Hey, you! Are you and
sister-in-law trying to ruin my life? I said. My brother would tell me that the person was
speaking lies, that there was a reason behind God’s calling of a fervent priest. So, he’d
tell me to bear with it a littler longer and I will soon find out when I continue the study.

However, I was in such a baffled state, I would look up Shinchonji, which was so new
to me, on the internet every single day. My guidance leader would have compassion on
me, and prayed in tears for me everyday.

Fortunately, like me, my guidance counselor used to be a Catholic, so she understood
what I was going through and we were able to work it out. Slowly, I was able to recover
my state of mind.

‘Yes, the word is the truth! The word is healing us!

The life I pursued without the word of truth as a priest was all wrong!

It was a life I wanted to life even if I had to shave my bones? But the answers I could
not find there I was able to find here!

In a situation like so, the word of truth nourished my soul making it healthy, and I have
never evangelized anyone but with the help of the heavens, I was able to guide a couple
from Busan and one from Seoul. Currently, they are diligently learning the word of
truth.

While working hard to save a soul, there were times where I’d experience pain as if
my body was crumbling, but thinking the suffering the promised pastor, who walked
this path first, had to go through, the pain I was feeling became nothing and I was just
grateful.

I will work harder to fully understand the words of life of the promised pastor, and
inscribe each verse in my heart and mind.

Concluding, I want to thank my sister-in-law, my youngest brother, instructor and
guidance leaders who anxiously walked with me until I was able to graduate with
honors, the seniors who prayed for me, tribe leader and especially my fellow graduates,
I love you!

Even if I had all the words in the word, I wouldn’t be able to express how I feel right
now. But there is one thing that I want to say. “Everyone! We were destined to live
forever!” I thank and glorify God, our father, and Jesus who helped me meet the true
teacher who is putting his life down to work hard. I end my graduation speech here.

Thank you.

A pastor who attended the seminar requested, “Please come to South Africa to lecture in front of 1,000 pastors.”

(Photo) On July 21st, about 1,500 believers, including pastors, gathered at the Crystal Cathedral near Los Angeles to listen to the lecture of Chairman Man Hee Lee from Shinchonji Church of Jesus who testified. The hearts of the pastors and reporters who heard the Revealed Word were moved, blooming in joy of the Spirit, like flowers of heaven. A pastor who attended the seminar requested, “Please come to South Africa to lecture in front of 1,000 pastors.” Chairman Man Hee Lee of Shinchonji Church of Jesus brought a huge wave of inspiration to the media and the pastors of the world by doing the work of “Shinchonji’s Fulfillment of the East traveling to the West - Part II” as he went from Korea to Europe, Europe to the United States, then from United States back to Korea. He went around the whole world for a month, starting from July 2nd. The gospel of heaven Jesus preached 2,000 years ago reached the ends of the earth, the Republic of Korea through Europe in the West (the energy of the West coming to the East). Since then, the New Testament has been fulfilled in the Republic of Korea in the East, and now the fulfillment of the New Testament is being preached back to the West, to be believed and put in to action. The work of “the fulfillment of the East traveling to the West” has been done with great success, twice in May and July, bringing excitement to the whole globe. Pastors and reporters were also inspired upon hearing the Revealed Word, blooming the heavenly flower of joy in the Holy Spirit. (Photo) Shinchonji Open Bible Seminar, hosted in Houffalize, Belgium, on July 4th Chairman Lee cancelled all his schedules already planned in advance for the year and went on his second trip of “the fulfillment of the East traveling to the West,” only 6 weeks after his first trip to the West. Chairman Lee said, “It wasn’t only because of the requests of the pastors overseas. I decided to go on this trip in order to fulfill the will of Jesus, who purchased me with his blood.” On July 4th, at the Chairman’s first seminar location in Houffalize, Belgium, many pastors greeted the Chairman’s party by shouting “Hosanna” with palm branches in their hands. One of the pastors was particularly passionate in greeting Chairman Lee, reminiscent of David who danced to the point of not realizing his clothes came off at the joy of recovering the Ark of the Covenant that was taken by the Gentiles. It was evident how sincere their hearts were in waiting for the Chairman’s revisit to Europe. (Photo) Atterbury Chapel Church joint service in Frankfurt, Germany, on July 8th About 300 pastors gathered from all over the world that day to meet Chairman Man Hee Lee of Shinchonji at the “13th International Conference,” representing about 10 different countries of the world. Following the conference, Chairman Lee was then invited to the Atterbury Chapel Church in Frankfurt, Germany on July 8th, and led the Sunday service by giving a sermon in front of about 200 believers gathered from all over the world. Some of them even kneeled in front of Chairman Lee at the end of service. The long-awaited "Shinchonji Open Bible Seminar of America" was also hosted at the center of the world's media in New York, United States, at the Times Center on July 14th, and at the Crystal Cathedral near Los Angeles. At the seminar in Crystal Cathedral, over 1,500 people attended the event including about 500 pastors, and 1,000 attendees among them registered to study further the Word of Shinchonji. Not only that, well-known media companies in America even visited where the Chairman was staying, and a live broadcast interview that was originally planned for 5 minutes was extended into a 40-minute interview. (Photo) Shinchonji Open Bible Seminar of America, hosted at the Times Center in New York, July 14th In particular, while believers in Los Angeles were passionately welcoming the Chairman, a large cloud appeared in the sky in the shape of a cross, allowing all who were at the scene to experience the work of the Holy Spirit with such strength. And just as the Chairman said, "the spirits of the 100,000 Shinchonji members are with us," and the work of the Holy Spirit were with the prayers of Shinchonji members all over the world, as they were praying according to the timezone the Chairman was in, no matter how early or late it was in their time.

Shinchonji Incheon Open Bible Seminar

[Shinchonji Incheon Open Bible Seminar]
Incheon-Dowon gymnasium filled with a crowd who came to hear the Word of Shinchonji
Posted 6/29/2012 3:06:00 PM | Updated 2012-06-29 오후 3:06:54
Shinchonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony (Shinchonji) announced that it will be holding a Shinchonji Open Bible Seminar at Incheon-Dowon gymnasium on the 11th and the 12th. Shinchonji has been actively hosting various activities to publicize the Open Bible Seminar through street promotions, “Por-por-por” dance performances, banners in cars and streetlamps, advertising on buses, banners on major buildings, passing out flyers and business cards, and flash mobs. The upcoming Shinchonji Open Bible Seminar will cover four topics all believers must know, “The Signs of the Lord’s Second Coming and of the End of Age”, “The Tree of Life and The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil”, “The Two Types of Seed and Harvest”, and “Revelation and Faith”. Instructor Jin-Hyun Kim from the Incheon church of Shinchonji said, “Through this seminar many will be able to hear this new Word for the first time.” Regarding this Open Bible Seminar He also said, “This seminar is made up of contents all believers must know. We hope everyone will perceive the words of Jesus’ promise and have perfect faith, becoming believers who accept the Lord.” Shinchonji Incheon church said regarding the Open Bible Seminar that, “This is a place that testifies to what has never happened before and will never happen again—the fulfillment of the prophecies of the Book of Revelation, God’s last work. It will testify to what was seen, heard, and was commanded to do, without adding anything to it or subtracting from it.” It also emphasized, “We are inviting all the famed doctors of divinity and pastors from all the churches in Korea. Through this opportunity, we hope this seminar will be a time of grace, perceiving the New Testament, Jesus’ words of promise.” Also, a person related to Shinchonji said, “The gospel that began in the West came to the East, to Korea (“Energy of the West travelling to the East”), and as the time of fulfillment the prophecies of the Bible came, the gospel fulfilled in the East, in Korea, is now preached back to Europe (“Fulfillment of the East travelling to the West”).” ▲Chairman Man Hee Lee, lecturing at the location of the Shinchonji European Open Bible SeminarLast May in Europe, Shinchonji held a Shinchonji Open Bible Seminar, being in the spotlight of the European media by receiving much attention before returning. Many of the local media in Europe fought to cover the Word of Shinchonji and Chairman Man Hee Lee extensively during the 12 days of his European visit. After listening to the lecture by Shinchonji’s Chairman Man Hee Lee, the European pastors requested for him to come to their own denomination to hold a lecture there. Also, the local Christians who heard the lecture by Shinchonji’s Chairman Man Hee Lee bowed before him and touched his hand, being saddened by the departure. On the other hand, on the 31st of last month at the Gan-Seuk Dong-lo Royal Hotel, the Incheon Citizens’ Cult Countermeasure Group of Incheon Christianity Assembly gathered to hold a secret press conference. Criticism made by this group was reported by many media outlets through this press conference. However, Christian organizations in the Incheon area such as this seem to be on high alert as Shinchonji Open Bible Seminar is being hosted in this region of Incheon just 10 days after this press conference and in the midst of persecution. The upcoming Shinchonji Open Bible Seminar is hosted by the Open Bible Research Institution, and can be viewed live on www.scjbible.tv through the Internet and through smartphones.

NBC Introduces Instructor Lee Man Hee

NBC Introduces Instructor Lee Man Hee Posted 8/16/2012 6:08:00 PM    Controversial religious leader comes to Bakersfield A controversial religious leader came to Bakersfield on Monday. Korean Christian instructor Man Hee Lee was here to speak about the fulfillment of the Book of Revelation and to what some people call the most disputed content in the Bible about the end of time. The ballroom at the Double Tree Hotel was filled with more than 100 followers and local church leaders to listen to Man Hee Lee testify on the Fulfillment of Revelation, something that often sparks controversy. Man Hee Lee was born to a poor farming family of royal descent. He claims Jesus appeared to him and anointed him. "He says that he has sent a angel, a messenger, to testify to the churches. And, that is what was promised. So to the churches, Jesus sent this individual here to testify to those very churches," said Man Hee Lee through an interpretor. Lee claims he is the only person who saw and heard the events of Revelation and can testify to their meanings exactly according to the Bible. His words Monday peaked the interest of some local ministries to do further research. "It's important that we study this in a lot more detail. This was just an overview, but we need to dissect it a little more and make sure it's spot on with the Word. I feel good about it, but I want to check it out a little bit deeper," said Lawrence Gonzales, Fresh Start Ministries. Controversy seems to go hand in hand with many parts of the Bible and interpretations. Another local minister says she can see why there would be controversy with Lee's instruction. "He is very sure of his interpretation, and I think when there is someone who is very sure of their interpretation, there is always somebody else who interprets it differently," said Doris Dunham, Church of the Brethren. Bakersfield wasn't Lee's first California stop on this trip. He spoke at the Crystal Cathedral in Garden Grove on Saturday, where many members were angry that he was appearing at their venue. Lee also spoke in New York, Belgium and Germany. His Tabernacle of the Testimony, headquartered in South Korea, has 140,000 members worldwide. Lee says the Gospel of the Kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations and then the end will come. We spoke with local Catholic leaders who said they did not know Lee was speaking here on Monday.
