The son who receives the inheritance of God

References: Gn 1, Rv 21:7, Mt 11:27, Gal 4:1-7

Only those who overcome can receive God’s inheritance.

Before discussing the topic of inheritance, we must understand God from God’s perspective. For the last 6,000 years, Satan has ruled over God’s creation. After conquering the world for himself, Satan will never willingly cede control to God.

The Nationwide Shinchonji Open Word Seminar

Shinchonji is testifying about the long-awaited fulfillment of the New Testament prophecies.

Christians have been waiting for a long time in eager expectation for the fulfillment of the New Testament, but just like believers in the time of the first coming, no one clearly understood how God’s will would be fulfilled. Today’s Christians need no longer look forward to the fulfillment of the New Testament because the fulfillment has already come according to the Bible.

The faith of the sheep and the goats

References: Heb 3:18-19 (Heb 11:33-39)

In Mt 25, Jesus promised to gather believers to him at the time of the second coming. Among those are gathered to him, Jesus prophesied that some believers would be like sheep and some would be like goats. Jesus promised that the sheep-like believers would inherit the kingdom of heaven and that the goat-like believers be expelled from heaven and sentenced to an eternity of punishment in hell (Mt 25:31-46).

These words are a grave warning to those of us who believe.

Judgment and the standard for a true life of faith

References: Rv 22:18-19, Mt 7:15-20

The prophets in the time of the Old Testament and Jesus and his apostles in the New Testament were all called heretics, persecuted, and even killed by the religious leaders of their respective generations (Mt 5:10-12, Acts 7:51-53, Mt 23:30-31, Heb 11:35-39, Lk 20:9-15).

The time and place of Revelation 22

Revelation 22 describes God’s kingdom, the tree of life, the qualifications for entering the holy city, and the identity of those who remain outside the holy city. Those who are sealed by God and Jesus in Rv 14 (i.e., the twelve tribes) become the tree of life that bears twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. They will see the face of God and will reign with him forever and ever (Rv 22:1-4).

The final destination for believers

References: Rv 10 (Rv 2, Rv 3, Mt 24:45-47, Jn 14:26)

We, as believers, have understood from the Bible, which is God’s word, that God created the heavens, the earth, and everything in them. He created the kingdom of heaven and has been working for its completion on earth as it is in heaven. Through the Bible we know about the kingdom of heaven and the kingdom of hell. We know about the existence of eternal life and eternal punishment. We also know that just as sin and death entered the world through one man, Adam, resurrection from death and life come through another man, Jesus (1 Cor 15:21-22). This is why we live our lives of faith—so that we can enter the kingdom of heaven and receive eternal life.

The holy spirit and the secret of heaven

References: 1 Cor 2:10-11 (Mt 13:11; Rv 5:1-3)

God’s spirit is a holy spirit that knows God’s secrets. Men, too, have spirits that know the secrets of their hearts. Since God hid his secrets in parables (Mt 13), no one in heaven, on earth, or under the earth has been able to open or even look inside God’s sealed book (Rv 5:1-3). We can only know the truth if God decides to reveal it to us. There are many people who interpret the Bible using their own imaginations, despite the fact that God has never revealed his secrets to them. These people are liars who have received the spirit of the devil.

The time and place of Revelation 21

Revelation 21 is about the fulfillment of Mt 6:10. It describes the new heaven and new earth and how the holy city comes down out of heaven.

The first heaven and earth betray God and are destroyed (Rv 13, Rv 6). After the destruction of the first heaven and earth, the new heaven and earth are established as the twelve tribes are harvested and sealed by the revealed word (Rv 12, Rv 7, Rv 14). This group is also described as the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony in Rv 15.

The reason for persecution

References: Acts 7:51–53, Mt 23:20–33

Those who persecute and those who are persecuted

The Bible helps us discern God from the devil and the pastors of God from the pastors of the devil.

Over the last 6,000 years of God’s work, there have been people who persecuted others and people who were persecuted (Mt 5:10–12). In every generation, those who persecute belong to the devil and those who are persecuted belong to God. God’s pastors love, forgive, and bless others, while the pastors who belong to the devil persecute, curse, lie, and create conflict. Thus, we can help discern who belongs to God and who belongs to the devil by their actions.

Jesus' blood of the new covenant and its fulfillment

References: Mt 26 (Lk 22, Rv 5:9–10, Jn 6:51–57)

Since Shinchonji Church of Jesus1 is God’s kingdom of priests and chosen people that has been created according to the promises in the New Testament (Rv 1:5–6), those who interfere with Shinchonji will be cursed. Jesus said that the days of the second coming would be like the days of Noah and the days of Lot (Lk 17:26–30). This means that people who read the Bible can know what will happen at the time of Jesus’ second coming if they know what happened at the time of Noah and the time of Lot.
