Passover -


PASSOVER = Salvation of our souls
When the people hear that the members of the Church of God World Mission Society keep the Passover, automatically without any reason we are persecuted. If you existed during the time Jesus Christ was alive, would you have mocked Him? Let us see the true reason why we keep the Passover.--ORIGIN OF THE PASSOVER--The Israelites were in slavery for 430 years (Ex 12:40). For so long they prayed to God for freedom. God could have used any type of method to free them, maybe a plan to attach the egyptians or to escape during the night. However, God made His power known by having the Israelites celebrate the Passover, and due to their obedience they received the blessing of freedom of slavey and protection from disaster. This is the origin of the Passover. This is a Law God Commanded to be kept for the generations to come. Which means as long as there are people living in this world, EVERYONE WHO CALLS HIMSELF A BELEIVER SHOULD KEEP THE PASSOVER (EX 12:14). That is why on our next post, let us see how the Passover affects current Christians. What is the blessing the Church of God members are receiving by keeping this Passover. GOD BLESS YOU!

Mother Jerusalem

Mother Jerusalem
Now, the news of salvation is spreading rapidly across the world. People who never heard or understood about God are beginning to receive the truth with great delight. Most people wish to know why they are existing in this world, and what awaits them afterward. All of these fundamental human questions can be answered through the Bible.
However, the Bible has recently become an object of humor and most peole today see it only as book stories. We, on the other hand, do not. We see the Bible as a book of prophecy which helps us understand the spiritual world and lead us to the kingdom of Heaven. Also, the Bible teaches us about the existence of our Spiritual Mother, Heavenly Mother Jerusalem. She is the spiritual city which gives eternal life. I don't mean a literal city, but She represents the place where we can receive God's abundant blessing, Jerusalem. This Jerusalem, however, is from Heaven, not Palestine. She is God the Mother; the female image of God.
People are traveling all the way around the world to visit Heavenly Mother and to receive Her blessings. I hope that you too can receive God's blessing in this last age. God bless you...

Brothers and sisters share greetings in four foreign languages at the New Jerusalem Temple. They are all the members of the heavenly family, who understand each other in God's love just by looking at each other.
ⓒ 2006 WATVThe 27th Overseas Visiting Group came to Korea to see Mother the new Jerusalem, their spiritual home. On October 22, 80 members successively arrived in Korea from fifteen cities in eight countries?from Russia , from Central and South America in the Southern Hemisphere on the opposite side of the world from Korea , from six cities in the United States , and from New Zealand . During their stay in Korea , they studied the words of truth and experienced God's love as well as brotherly love at the New Jerusalem Temple, the Head Office and the Training Institute. From early in the morning till midnight, Mother welcomed all the members, who flew from afar like doves to their nests, with Her constant love. A sister from Peru said that when she approached Mother, she was worried because she thought, Will Mother say I love you' to a sinner like me? She expressed the overwhelming emotion she experienced, saying, My heart felt like it was going to burst when Mother hugged me, saying, Te amo (I love you).' Mother appreciated the efforts of the overseas members who came such a long way. She told them about the work of the Holy Spirit of the latter rain that occurred during the Feast of Tabernacles, and blessed them, saying, Receive the blessing of the Holy Spirit abundantly and bear much good fruit pleasing to God as great workers when you go back.
ⓒ 2006 WATVThe members from Peru, Mexico, USA and New Zealand, along with the members from Brazil, Chile, Argentina and Russia who made their first visit to Korea, asked blessings for the Churches rather than for their own wishes, and desired that the world mission be quickly accomplished.

On October 29, they participated in the Awards Ceremony for the Fruits During the Preaching Festival of the Feast of Tabernacles, together with over 17,000 members in Korea , and witnessed the current status of the gospel accomplished by the power of the Holy Spirit. When Mother said, Let the fire of the Holy Spirit keep burning and lead many souls to heaven with burning love, they said, Amen, and their hearts were also burning within themselves. They showed their determination towards the gospel, saying, The fire of the Holy Spirit is burning in our hearts hotter than during the Preaching Festival of the Feast of Tabernacles. We will diligently preach the new covenant of life and find all our lost heavenly family members. The next day, the overseas members visited the Church of God History Museum and were all overwhelmed by the Holy Spirit. Watching videos with captions translated in English, Spanish and Russian, and hearing the guides' explanations, they inscribed the love of heavenly Father and Mother deep into their hearts. Their eyes welled up with tears when they said, Our souls have come to life through the suffering and sacrifice of our Father and Mother. We will follow the sacrificial path of Christ and bear beautiful fruit of the gospel.
ⓒ 2006 WATVMother blessed the overseas visiting group, saying, If you return home, bear much fruit and receive much love from Father. Cherishing Mother's love and the overwhelming emotions through the Holy Spirit in their hearts, they departed from Korea . They said, We could feel we were being touched more deeply by the Holy Spirit day by day during our stay in Korea . They will spread the blazing fire of the Holy Spirit after they go back to their country, and their enthusiasm for the gospel will accelerate the speed of world evangelism.

Ahnshanghong and God the Mother


We believe in Ahnsahnghong
True Happiness Found in Mother
NATION USANAME Paula Silson
Where do I begin? There were so many scenarios in my head about what it would be like to see Mother. I had seen the videos and heard many fragrances. I felt as though I could imagine what it was like. This could not have been further from the truth, even though my whole life was preparing me for this moment, I had no idea how much my perspective would change in just ten short days. No words can describe the feeling you get just being in the same room as Mother. Even now as I try to write the only term that comes to my mind is inexpressible. I could only imagine that it was like how heaven must be no worries or cares, only trying to take in every moment and keep it somehow.
Before coming to the truth, I was so worldly, only having physical goals: Like how I could make more money, how I could have the best stuff, anything to make myself happy. I didn’t realize the whole time there was nothing I could do that could make me happy. Father and Mother called me out of darkness and into Their light in January of 2007; They brought me into true happiness. Even though my husband had preached to me for nearly 6 years, I continued to judge and persecute and hold onto my physical life. Father and Mother full of love were so patient with this rebellious child. For this patience and mercy I am eternally thankful to my Heavenly Parents. Visiting Korea, I knew there was so much I wanted to thank Mother for, also so much I wanted to apologize for.
In the days leading up to the trip, I began to think what it was that I really wanted to learn in Korea. I felt like I lacked understanding in so many areas though I had knowledge. So whereas I knew Father and Mother loved us, I wanted to understand how much. In my heart if this was accomplished, then I truly learned something worth sharing. My prayers were answered when some of the sacrifice our Parents made was revealed to us. I knew They left Their heavenly thrones and came to this earth, bound by the flesh. However, because this sacrifice is in a realm which we cannot conceive, They sacrificed more. They forsook all things?food, warmth and sleep, and the list went on an on. How could this be possible? Only because They are God and because of the love They have for Their children, it is possible. Learning how much They had given up for our eternal life was something that weighed so heavily on my heart. I felt so ashamed for taking my salvation for granted and not thinking about the path that Father and Mother walked in order that I may receive it.
As the days passed by, I began to see Mother differently. In the beginning I could only think about Her as God who knows all things, but then I started to see Her as my Mother who has loved me from creation despite my many imperfections. Mother never hesitated to tell us how much She loved us or grab our hand if the opportunity was available, anything to demonstrate to us Her love, even listening to nearly one hundred brothers and sisters practice preaching, always encouraging and smiling, making you feel so comfortable.
Before we left, Mother earnestly prayed for Her children to receive strength to endure in these last days. Though I came to Korea with curiosity, I left with certainty that Father and Mother are God Almighty and They love us so much and also that with Them all things are possible. Now returning back to the states, I want to hold onto all the blessing and love that Mother gave me and shine Her glory to the world. Though only a portion of this gospel work is left to be complete, I pray that all of my brothers and sisters receive the Holy Spirit and work diligently till we can be together with our Heavenly Father and Mother and live in unity with perfect happiness eternally.

Ahnsahnghong - The Key Factor in Deciding an Heir Is "Mother"

The Key Factor in Deciding an Heir Is "Mother"
Let’s study the reason why God chose Isaac to be Abraham’s heir.
Both Eliezer’s father and his mother were slaves, neither of them was free. This is the reason why God did not allow him to be Abraham’s heir. Ishmael’s father, Abraham, was free, but his mother, Hagar, was a slave and not a free woman. This is why God could not allow Ishmael to become Abraham’s heir. Isaac’s father, Abraham, was a free man, and his mother, Sarah, was a free woman. The fact that Isaac had been born of a free woman was the big difference between Ishmael and Isaac, and this discrepancy became the key factor in choosing Abraham’s heir.
In those days, the eldest son inherited all of his family’s property. Since Ishmael was older than Isaac, he should have become the heir—that is, if God had made His decision according to the paternal line. Ishmael was not chosen to become Abraham’s heir, even though he was Abraham’s eldest son, because his mother was not a free woman, but a slave. Thus, it is clear that the decisive factor in choosing Abraham’s heir was his mother.
What we need to focus on while studying the history of Abraham’s family is not merely the story of a man and his family. As you know, the Bible is not a storybook to tell us of men and their families. Nevertheless, God repeatedly mentioned the story of this particular family. Actually, the history of Abraham was a shadow of what was to happen in the future. In order for us to know who could become God’s heir, the story of Abraham’s family was written, as a prophecy.
Therefore, through the history of Abraham’s family, we can clearly understand that the decisive factor in choosing an heir is the mother. As Isaac became Abraham’s heir through Sarah, his free mother, we can become God’s heirs through our heavenly Mother, who is a free woman. Only those who believe in the heavenly Mother—only the children who are born through the new covenant—can inherit the heavenly Father’s kingdom. Let us read one more verse testifying about the heavenly Mother.
Gal. 4:22-31 『...But the Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our mother...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. It is the same now. But what does the Scripture say? "Get rid of the slave woman and her son, for the slave woman's son will never share in the inheritance with the free woman's son." Therefore, brothers, we are not children of the slave woman, but of the free woman.』
The Bible declares that we are not children of the slave woman, but of the free woman. Ishmael could not inherit his father’s estate because his mother, Hagar, was only a slave, not a free woman. On the other hand, Isaac was chosen to become Abraham’s heir because his mother, Sarah, was a free woman. The Bible also testifies that we, like Isaac, are the children of promise, the children of the heavenly Mother, who is free.
In today’s world, there are three types of people: those who are like Eliezer, those like Ishmael, and those who are like Isaac. The first type of people, who are like Eliezer, are atheists, who do not believe in Father God or in Mother God. The second type of people, who are like Ishmael, are those who believe in Father God, but do not believe in Mother God. The third type of people, who are like Isaac, are those who believe in Mother God as well as Father God. According to the history of Abraham’s family, which one of these three types can become an heir of the kingdom of heaven? Only the third type of people, who are like Isaac, can be recognized as God’s heirs. There is no doubt about it.
Which group of people do you want to be classified with? If you want to be like Isaac, you must first become a child of the free woman. Thus, you must accept the heavenly Mother, who is free. The Bible testifies to this fact.
God said, "My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge" (Hos. 4:6). What kind of knowledge is God referring to in this verse? We must recognize that we have a God the Mother, as well as a God the Father. We must accept Elohim God. Also, we must firmly believe that God is our Mother, who gives us salvation alongside our Father. Only after we come to realize this can we say that we have the knowledge of God, and that we will not be those who are destroyed from a "lack of knowledge."
The Bible testifies that the Holy Spirit is God Ahnsahnghong, and that the Bride is Jerusalem Mother. Let us accept God Ahnsahnghong, the Holy Spirit, and Jerusalem Mother, the Bride, who give us the water of life in these last days, so that we can enter the kingdom of heaven.
