Church of God - Ahnsahnghong - Prophecy and Its Fulfillment

Prophecy and Its Fulfillment
As God had commanded, the priests were to wave a sheaf of the first grain before the LORD on the day after the Sabbath (Sunday) so that God would accept their offering.

Lev. 23:10-12 『"When you enter the land I am going to give you and you reap its harvest, bring to the priest a sheaf of the first grain you harvest. He is to wave the sheaf before the LORD so it will be accepted on your behalf; the priest is to wave it on the day after the Sabbath."』

Here, the first grain—the firstfruits—stands for Christ, who was raised from the dead as the firstfruits of those who had fallen asleep.

1 Cor. 15:20 『But Christ had indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.』

The offering to be presented on the Day of Firstfruits, a sheaf of the first grain, was to be brought to God on the day after the Sabbath—that is, Sunday. The firstfruits stand for Christ, so it is only logical that Resurrection Day, when Jesus rose from death, would be on Sunday, the day after the Sabbath.

Mark 16:2-6 『Very early on the first day of the week, just after sunrise, they were on their way to the tomb and they asked each other, "Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?" But when they looked up, they saw that the stone, which was very large, had been rolled away..."You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here."』

The Day of Firstfruits is the shadow of Resurrection Day. As the Day of Firstfruits was celebrated on the day after the Sabbath, Sunday, so Resurrection Day is to be celebrated on Sunday, in fulfillment of the prophecy. Therefore the Day of Firstfruits, Resurrection Day, is celebrated on Sunday every year. By rising from the dead as the firstfruits of those who had fallen asleep, Jesus became the true offering of the Day of Firstfruits, belonging to the seven feasts of three times.

Matt. 27:52-53 『The tombs broke open and the bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life. They came out of the tombs, and after Jesus' resurrection they went into the holy city and appeared to many people.』

In those days, the holy people who had been saved through the gospel became the ripe grains of the wheat harvest, and today, we have become the ripe grains of the last autumn harvest (Ex. 23:16).

Origin of The Day of Firstfruits - Ahnsahnghong

Origin of The Day of Firstfruits

When the nervous Israelites were being chased by the Egyptian army, God allowed them to cross the Red Sea under His protection, even though they had been so terrified. When God put the Sea—which had been divided—back in its place, the Egyptian army that had pursued them was buried in water. God commanded the Israelites to annually commemorate the day when they had landed on the other side of the Red Sea, so that they might remember God's great power revealed on that day. This is the origin of the Day of Firstfruits (Ex. 14:26-31).

Ahnsahnghong - The Day of Firstfruits

The Day of Firstfruits
Resurrection Day, on which Jesus rose from death, is a memorial to commemorate God's great power. In the Old Testament times, this day was known as the Day of Firstfruits. It is a sacred feast of God, which is to be celebrated on the day after the Sabbath, following the Feast of Unleavened Bread (Lev. 23:9-14). The Church of God, which faithfully obeys every teaching of the Bible, celebrates Resurrection Day on the date that was specified in the Bible. The Church of God breaks the bread that God promised would open our spiritual eyes, while the other churches eat boiled eggs—following the pagan customs—on a date which was never written in the Bible.

Let's correctly understand the Day of Resurrection as it was given in the Bible so that we can celebrate the feast holy.

Ahnsahnghong - Let's proclaim God's salvation

Let's proclaim God's salvation

We always need God. Let us live in God's promise and put God in our hearts without forgetting Him. Every day, let's ponder over what God's will and commands are, what God is pleased with, and what God is anxious and worried about.

God expresses His heart by saying, "How distressed I am!" (Lk 12:50). He feels distressed because people do not realize Him even while reading the Bible, feels distressed because they do not interpret this present time even though they see many signs, and also feels distressed because they fail to share in His glory without knowing the prepared blessings and glory of heaven and without doing His will. Thus, there must be so many things that make God distressed.

Let us not keep the good news of salvation to ourselves, but let it be known to all people, so that we can go to heaven together. Recently, scientists have warned against disasters through many convincing proofs. They say that it is a sin against humanity if we know about the impending disaster but do not tell it to people. We must not be criminals by keeping the truth to ourselves, but tell it to all people in the world, as God said, "Give them warning from me." God who dwells in Zion saves us not only from various disasters rampant throughout the world but also from the eternal disaster-punishment in hell where the fire never goes out-and leads us to the kingdom of heaven. So, let's blow the trumpet clearly, telling people to return to Zion and escape disasters (Jer 4:5-6). I earnestly ask you all to have wisdom and insight to foresee the future through all signs small and great, which appear in the world, and to lead all your family, neighbors, friends and relatives to Zion and to the way of salvation.

Please preach the Passover, the good news of salvation, as much as you can. At the time of Moses, when this good news was preached, the Egyptians did not listen to it, while the Israelites listened. What was their fate?

Through the Passover, God distinguishes His people from those who are not. So, God tells us to always have His law, the new covenant, in our hearts. I repeatedly ask all you people of Zion to participate in the salvation of God who leads us to a new heaven and a new earth, and to quickly lead many people around the world, who are living without knowing the way of salvation, to the Church of God where there is the kingdom of heaven, salvation and the truth.

Ahnsahnghong- God gives eternal salvation

God gives eternal salvation

Some people say that there are cases where people are saved from disaster even though they do not believe in God correctly. However, that is not true salvation.

At the time of the 9.11 terrorist attacks in the USA, there was a person who barely survived, but some time later he was killed in another accident. He was lucky to escape one disaster, but soon encountered another disaster. So, we cannot say that it is true salvation.

The TV movie "The Day After" was once telecast in the US and evoked a great sensation from among people. The movie shows that the situation after a nuclear explosion is as serious as the moment of explosion. Even if people survive, there is no place to receive treatment for their injuries and no place to find food because the earth is completely devastated by the radioactive dust. The movie highlights the fact that the suffering of the nuclear survivors is more severe than that of the dead. Although they've barely escaped a temporary crisis, a more severe suffering is waiting for them, so it cannot be said that they are truly saved.

The salvation God has prepared for us is eternal salvation. God not only saves us from temporary crises and disasters on this earth, but even grants us the eternal glory in a new heaven and a new earth.

2 Pe 3:10-15 『But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be laid bare. Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives as you look forward to the day of God and speed its coming.That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat. But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, the home of righteousness. So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless and at peace with him. Bear in mind that our Lord's patience means salvation, . . .』

As God has promised to save us from the deadly pestilence and all other disasters, we are now looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth. God has prepared a new world where there is no more death or mourning or crying or pain, and is leading us there.

Rev 21:1-7 『Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away. He who was seated on the throne said, "I am making everything new!" . . .』

Apostle John also saw in his vision a new heaven and a new earth. In the new world, God says, "I will be their God, and they will be my people," and promises to let His people reign for ever and ever. This is the true salvation.

Rev 22:3-5 『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.』

Elohim our Creators have granted us, people of Zion, a new heaven and a new earth, and have prepared a glorious future for us, where we will reign for ever and ever. Now the news about many disasters is frightening the world, but even amid the gloomy news, we should foresee a bright future in the kingdom of heaven, keeping in mind God's promise to let no disaster come near us-the people who live in the truth of the new covenant.

Ahnsahnghong - God will Save Us!

God Will Save Us
Now we live in a prophetic age when God's care and protection are needed much more than ever before.

In regard to Influenza A/H1N1, the South Korean Government raised its flu alert status to the highest "red" level in early November, and is struggling to develop countermeasures against the flu. A few months ago, the WHO and many countries in the world already declared the H1N1 flu to be a global "pandemic," raising its alert level to 6, the highest phase. The US even declared a national emergency for the flu pandemic.

At a time when disasters are rampant, God's people need God's saving hand more than anything else. So, now let's take some time to review the teachings about God's salvation through the Bible.

Ahnsahnghong - Elohim Will Appear in Their Own Time - Church of God

Elohim Will Appear in Their Own Time
God promised that He would appear according to His own timing (1 Tim. 6:15). Let us confirm what form He will appear in.

Rev. 22:17 『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.』

For our salvation, God always referred to Himself as "us," and then Elohim God appeared—as the Holy Spirit and the Bride—to give us the water of life. In the first book of Timothy, it is written that God alone is immortal and lives in unapproachable light (1 Tim. 6:16). Thus, only the Spirit and the Bride—the Second Coming Christ, Ahnsahnghong, and the New Jerusalem Mother—are immortal and only They have life. Nevertheless, some people boast that they, also, have the power to give life. The people who make such assumptions are greatly mistaken. The Bible says that no one can have life until he or she eats the flesh of the Son of Man and drinks His blood (John 6:53), and Jesus said, "Follow me, and let the dead bury their own dead" (Matt. 8:22). Mere human beings, such as ourselves, cannot say that we are alive.

There is no life in us, so we must go to God—Christ Ahnsahnghong and Mother—if we want to receive eternal life and salvation, because They are the only ones who have life. In order to give the everlasting water of life to mortal beings, God came down to this earth in this last age as the Holy Spirit, Ahnsahnghong, and the Bride, the New Jerusalem Mother. People who pervert or deny this Biblical teaching will never be able to enter the kingdom of heaven.

Ahnsahnghong - Church of God world mission society - Elohim God Revealed in the Book of Genesis

Elohim God Revealed in the Book of Genesis
Let us confirm that there is both a male and a female image of God, through the book of Genesis.

Gen. 1:26-27 『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.』

Both males and females were created in the image of God, and thus it is clear that God has two images: a male image and a female image. When God said, "Let us make man in our image," God used the word "us"—a plural term—instead of using "me." We come to understand that not one God, but two Gods—a Father and a Mother—worked together during the Creation. Such plural terms are used to describe God in Genesis chapter 11, also.

Gen. 11:1-7 『…The LORD said…"Come, let us go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other."』

This verse, too, makes reference to Elohim God, the same God who created male and female (in Genesis chapter 1), saying, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness." In Genesis chapter 11, God was responding to the arrogance of the people, who had collectively built the tower of Babel. Through this situation, God testifies that there exists a God the Mother as well as a God the Father by saying, "Let us go down…"

The world mission society church of God - The Wedding of the Lamb

The Wedding of the Lamb
Let's study some of the testimonies about Mother written in the book of Revelation.

Rev. 19:7 『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.』

The book of Revelation was written after Jesus had ascended, and it prophesied about the things that were to happen in the last days. Thus, "the Lamb" mentioned in the above verse indicates the Second Coming Jesus: Ahnsahnghong. When Jesus came to the earth for the first time, two thousand years ago, His wife was not yet ready. The Bride, the wife of the Lamb, would appear in the last days.

In the book of Revelation, chapter 21, the Bride—the wife of the Lamb—is described as "Jerusalem."

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...showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God.』

Apostle Paul testified that this Holy City, Jerusalem, which would come down out of heaven, is our Mother.

Gal. 4:26 『But the Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our mother.』

World mission society Church of God - Jerusalem Mother

Jerusalem Mother
The Church of God only follows the teachings of the Bible and believes in the Second Coming Christ Ahnsahnghong and Jerusalem Mother.

In the Bible, God is referred to through plural terms instead of singular terms, and it is written that God has a male image and a female image. Therefore, God exists in the male image and in the female image.

Have you ever thought about why we call God our Father?

It is written that God's invisible qualities have been clearly seen and can be understood through what has been made (Rom. 1:20). Is there any creature that is given life through only their father, alone, without a mother being present?

We need to study this matter carefully.

World mission society Church of God - God Promised to Give Us Eternal Life through the Passover

God Promised to Give Us Eternal Life through the Passover
All men desire to have eternal life, but men cannot give it. Just as God saved the Israelites during the Exodus, only God is able to give us salvation and eternal life.

1 John 5: 20 『We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. And we are in him who is true?even in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.』

Then, how will God grant us eternal life? God gives us salvation through the blood of Christ (1 Cor. 5:7), represented, during the time of the Exodus, by the blood of the Passover lamb.

John 6:53-55 『Jesus said to them, "I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink."』

Jesus promised that the bread of the Passover was His flesh, and that the wine of the Passover was His blood.

Matt. 26:17-28 『...So the disciples did as Jesus had directed them and prepared the Passover...While they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, "Take and eat; this is my body." Then he took the cup, gave thanks and offered it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you. This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins."』

The reason why we want to receive the flesh and blood of Jesus?given to us through the Passover?is because Jesus, who is life, promised that when we eat His flesh and drink His blood, we will live forever.

Since Jesus said, "unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you" (John 6:53), how can we receive eternal life unless we celebrate the Passover?

Jesus called the Passover the new covenant.

Luke 22:7-20 『Then came the day of Unleavened Bread on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed...When the hour came, Jesus and his apostles reclined at the table. And he said to them, "I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer."...And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me." In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you."』

Jesus promised to give us eternal life through the Passover of the new covenant.

World mission society - The Apostle Paul's Thoughts About the "Spirit" - Ahnsahnghong

The Apostle Paul's Thoughts About the "Spirit"
We try to understand the apostles' minds because their thoughts were established by Jesus' teachings. The apostles understood that our flesh is merely the house of our spirit.

2 Cor. 5:1 『Now we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed [if our flesh dies], we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands.』

Our spirit lives in a temporary earthly tent?our flesh?now, but it will live in an eternal house that God has built for us.

2 Cor. 5:6 『Therefore we are always confident and know that as long as we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord....We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord. So we make it our goal to please him, whether we are at home in the body or away from it.』

In this letter, the Apostle Paul says that the Lord [Jesus] dwells in the world of spirit and that we dwell in the world of flesh. Thus we are away from the Lord as long as we are in the body. The Apostle Paul also reveals that he, and the rest of the saints, would prefer to be away from their bodies and at home with the Lord.

In the above verses, what is the entity that dwells in the body and then leaves the body? Paul's spirit, the very essence of Paul, is the one who wants to leave the body. The body he wore was not the essence of his life, but instead, Paul's spirit?dwelling within his body?was his true self. To say it again, the Apostle Paul lived not for the temporary life in his earthly tent [his flesh], but he longed for the life that he would live in the eternal house. God would give him this everlasting home only after his spirit left its earthly tent.

The Apostle Paul wrote similarly in a letter to the saints in Philippi.

Phil. 1:21-24 『For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain....I am torn between the two: I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is better by far; but it is more necessary for you that I remain in the body.』

Paul's words, "We...would prefer to be away from the body," in the book of 2 Corinthians 5:6 and the words, "I desire to depart," in the book of Philippians chapter one, have the same meanings. "To be away," or "to depart," means to leave the body. What is the entity that dwells in the body or leaves it? It is Paul's spirit, the true essence of Paul.

Paul revealed that it was more necessary for the saints that he remained in his body. If Paul were to leave his body [if he were to die], he would go to Christ; thus it was good for him to leave the body. If he remained in the body, however, it was good for the saints because then he could teach them the truth of God and guide them down the right path.

Paul also uttered a revelation that God had shown him in another letter to the Church in Corinth.

2 Cor. 12:1 『I must go on boasting. Although there is nothing to be gained, I will go on to visions and revelations from the Lord. I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know?God knows. And I know that this man?whether in the body or apart from the body I do not know, but God knows.』

When Paul saw this revelation, he said twice, "...whether I [my spirit] was in the body or out of the body I do not know?God knows."

According to this verse, did the Apostle Paul think that the spirit existed as a separate entity from the body, or did he believe that the spirit did not exist?

If the Apostle Paul believed that the spirit did not exist, could he have said, "Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know?God knows"...? When Paul saw this revelation?describing himself as "a man" he knew (speaking in the third person)?he didn't know whether his spirit had traveled out of the body, or if he had gone to such a paradise in his flesh.

Because Elohim Are With Us- Ahnsahnghong

Because Elohim Are With Us
I'd like to begin my fragrance of Zion with deep thanks, praise, honor and glory to my Heavenly Father and Mother. I learned through this trip to Korea that all things are possible through Elohim God, and Their unfailing, unconditional perfect love. Father and Mother love us so much and are always taking care of us. I learned about Father and Mother's love back in May, 2008.

As soon as I learned about Father's second coming, I wanted to meet Him. Then I heard that he already went back up to heaven, for which I was pretty sad. Soon after learning about Father, I learned about Mother and heard that She is still with us! My mind and heart were already made up. I was going to see my Mother.

Months had went by and so did the summer trip to Korea. Even though I wasn't able to go to that trip, I still prayed earnestly that I could go in October. As the months went by and the October trip grew closer, it looked impossible for me to go because financially things were tough, but I had faith that if it is Father and Mother's will, I will be able to go. Somehow, after finding out through my bank and old car insurance company that I had canceled with five months ago was still taking money out of my account, I was able to get reimbursed in full from that company that was almost the exact amount of the plane ticket. I was going to Korea!

Leaving San Diego was actually bittersweet for me. Let's just say I wasn't necessarily excited about leaving my 9 month old son Cameron behind for the first time, but Father and Mother took care of him. A wonderful brother and sister from Zion looked after him. Thanks to them and, of course, Father and Mother, this was possible. Leaving Cameron made me realize how Mother must have felt when we had to leave Her and Father in heaven because of our sins, and how She must feel every time brothers and sisters leave after visiting Her in Korea.

The plane ride to Korea seemed like forever. To pass the time, all of us, brothers and sisters, preached to those who were around us. We were on fire! It was amazing! We were so excited to see Mother that if we personally had wings we'd fly to Her ourselves!

Arriving at the airport in Korea, we were greeted by many of our loving Korean brothers and sisters. They lavished us, brothers and sisters from all over the world, with hugs and gifts and with Mother's love. The joy that I felt made my eyes well up with tears. It felt like.. home!

Getting off the bus, I was suddenly greeted by our heavenly Mother. It was a shock! I wasn't expecting Her right when I came off the bus. I thought to myself, "This can't be real; this must be a dream!" Absolutely not a dream! I finally realized once Mother embraced me in Her arms for the first time in many, many years. Mother's life and Her teachings were present throughout the whole trip. Everyone could feel the amazing power of the love of Mother!

The Korean brothers and sisters set such a wonderful example for all of us. Even though at times we may have stumbled in our ways, yet with a smile and loving gestures they overlooked our faults!

I couldn't help but to also put Mother's teachings into practice by serving my brothers and sisters. I thought, 'If I take care of brothers and sister's plates at our Zion, then why not put the teachings in the presence of God Almighty?' Even God our Mother served us. At lunch Mother served us. She served us soup. Each individual was personally served by our God. Constantly She always humbles Herself in so many ways all the time. When She would speak, the whole world stood still.

I smiled so much, filled with joy, that my face started to get sore! Even with so much joy inside, there was a virus that tried to get the best of a couple of sisters and I, but of course, Mother's love and care always prevails. By the next day, after Mother's prayer for us, the sisters and I felt better. That morning, the appetite I had lost due to the virus came right back. The battle with the virus ended, yet the battle with my diabetes continued. I was going through insulin like water because of the time difference and the way my insulin's work. I never thought I'd run out. The last thing I wanted to do was create a whole bunch of worry. To make the long story short, I let a Missionary know. The next thing I knew I was going to see a doctor and within only 25min I had the insulin, which my life depends on; it was in my hands! Yes, the situation without that medicine could have been very scary. I could not believe how easy it was to get my insulin. I'm a foreigner, a military wife, miles and miles from San Diego, yet only God could have made this impossible situation possible. Even in San Diego, it takes two hours or more to get my prescription filled. Thanks to Father and Mother, I was able to have the insulin I depend so much on. Of course, my blood sugar level got better. I felt better. Without Father and Mother's love and sacrifice, we would not be here today. Through trials and tribulations, when we endure, we learn and become stronger, stronger in faith. We appreciate so much more. Arrogance disappears, and love, faith, compassion dwells within our hearts. Father and Mother give us wings to soar like eagles. We can do anything with our Elohim Gods guiding us!

Without worry about my diabetes, I could enjoy the rest of the short time left with Mother. She took a group of us, brothers and sisters, to show us the life Father lived. Compared to the way Father lived, we live in luxury. The simple things like electricity, pens and pencils, microwaves for a quick meal were nowhere to be found in the life Father and Mother lived. Mother sat with us and read us scriptures from the Bible in a small, small dark room lit only by a lamp with oil. Each one of us got a scripture read to us. Mother read, "Endure present sufferings!" It was a moment I'll carry in my memories always. The most rewarding moment with Mother was when we were all given the privilege to preach to Mother. Something amazing happened to me. With my own lack of confidence, I thought I wouldn't be able to preach in front of sisters, let alone preach in front of Heavenly Mother, who is God Almighty. We were the next in line to preach in front of Mother. Amongst our group it was decided that I would preach first since I had everything ready because I was practicing. To be honest, the whole visit I was so nervous to preach in front of Mother; but see that's just it! I myself wasn't preaching. I had said a little prayer before I began. In the presence of God, I began to preach "Heavenly Family and Earthly Family." All the anxiety and insecurity slipped away, and an ocean of warmth, assurance, confidence and an urgency to share this precious news washed over me. It was life; I had stepped aside myself and someone who was bold, strong and knowledgeable was preaching. It was amazing! It felt like I could do the impossible! Mother's smile, so comforting, so attentive, even though She probably heard this sermon thousands upon thousands of times! The expression on Mother's face you'd never know! I was so happy after preaching. The smile on Mother's face and Her love made my heart swell with utter happiness. I knew from then on I would never be satisfied with myself, or anything for that matter if I didn't preach. From then on I was so anxious to get back to San Diego to preach-to bring lost brothers and sisters into Mother's arms.

We went to the tower that overlooks all of Seoul, Korea. Amazing how within 60 years Seoul developed from a poor city into a rich one with towering buildings upon buildings, thriving with economical growth. How far Farther and Mother walked and climbed to save Their children-to get to where we are today! Thank You, Father and Mother! Only God can do something like that! They truly love us. I had learned so much through this trip. I never knew how I could love and care for some many people, whom I had only known for less than 10 days. When we parted to go back home or our temporary home, it tore my heart in two. Not only that but to leave Mother! I didn't want to leave anyone, but I knew my mission, what I had to do, my purpose! I knew I would see my overseas brothers and sisters again. Back home in heaven, together again all of us!

Thank You, Father and Mother, for opening my spiritual eyes to know and understand Your love and sacrifice, and for allowing me to overcome obstacles in this life, so I can learn and endure. I'm so honored to walk in the path that You have set out for me!

Do you want to keep the Passover? - Ahnsahnghong

Now, the time has come to study and to follow the way of salvation, according to God's guidance, displayed in the prophecies of the Bible, instead of seeking man's ways. In order to give salvation to those who believe in the prophecies, God has allowed the history of ancient times as a shadow, revealing what will happen in the end of the age.

Ex. 12:12-14 『"On that same night I will pass through Egypt and strike down every firstborn-both men and animals-and I will bring judgment on all the gods of Egypt. I am the LORD. The blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are; and when I see the blood, I will pass over you. No destructive plague will touch you when I strike Egypt. This is a day you are to commemorate; for the generations to come you shall celebrate it as a festival to the LORD-a lasting ordinance."』

In Hebrews 11:28, it is written, "By faith he kept the Passover and the sprinkling of blood, so that the destroyer of the firstborn would not touch the firstborn of Israel." This means that no destructive plague was brought upon the houses where the blood of the Passover lamb had been sprinkled, because it became a sign.

God's last plagues will be brought upon this sinful world. At that moment, who on earth can escape? Can't the people who have the blood of Jesus, who have celebrated the Passover, escape? The power of the Passover will be revealed when the last plagues are brought upon the earth. Those who have not celebrated the Passover will regret it, and they will face God's wrath and punishment.


Christ Ahnsahngong, who restored the Passover of the New Covenant
The Passover was abolished at the Council of Nicaea in A.D. 325. At that time, the Passover completely disappeared from the world. Who on earth can have eternal life as the truth of life was abolished? Therefore, Jesus said that He would come a second time to restore the Passover.

Heb. 9:28 『...so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.』

Ahnsahnghong restored the Passover of the new covenant that had been abolished by Satan. Then, who do you think Ahnsahnghong is?

Isa. 25:6-9 『On this mountain the LORD Almighty will prepare a feast of rich food for all peoples, a banquet of aged wine-the best of meats and the finest of wines. On this mountain he will destroy the shroud that enfolds all peoples, the sheet that covers all nations; he will swallow up death forever. The Sovereign LORD will wipe away the tears from all faces; he will remove the disgrace of his people from all the earth. The LORD has spoken. In that day they will say, "Surely this is our God; we trusted in him, and he saved us. This is the LORD, we trusted in him; let us rejoice and be glad in his salvation."』

Ahnsahnghong, who restored the Passover of the new covenant, is the Second Coming Christ-God-who appeared in accordance with all of the prophecies of the Bible. The saints of the Early Church had cherished and celebrated the Passover of the new covenant! Christ Ahnsahnghong came in the flesh and restored the Passover so that we may be saved from the impending plagues. The Passover of the new covenant is the very gospel of Christ.

Beware of Cult - Church of God , Ahnsahnghong

There are so many warnings in the Bible about not changing the Word of God, such as in Revelation 22: 18- 19 which says, “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.”But there was a prophecy of someone trying to change the laws of God written in Daniel 7:25 which states that, “He will speak against the Most High and oppress his saints and try to change the set times and laws.” Then only who would dare speak against the Most High God? Nobody! Except for Satan! Saturday Sabbath Day worship was changed to Sunday in 321AD by Roman Emperor Constantine because he really worshiped the Sun god. Does that make it right? Absolutely not!

We belive in God the Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and God the Mother, our Savior!

The Work of the Holy Spirit Is Fulfilled Through Preaching-Ahnsahnghong

The Work of the Holy Spirit Is Fulfilled Through Preaching
I believe that all our brothers and sisters in Zion are waiting for the blessings of the Holy Spirit of the latter rain God has promised through the autumn feasts. Just as the farmer waits for the land to yield its valuable crop, looking forward patiently to the autumn and spring rains (Jas 5:7-8), we are waiting for the refreshing rain of the Holy Spirit in order to bear the precious fruits pleasing to God.

In order not to put out the fire of the Holy Spirit but to make the Spirit well up always in our hearts, we should let the water of life flow without remaining stagnant. For this, we must pay attention to the words of the Bible, given by God through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, and put them into practice. Among the words we are to put into action, this time, let's think about the mission of preaching the gospel which God has entrusted to us, His children, in this age.


A ‘hidden treasure' is found when we put God's word into practice

There was once a farmer who had three sons. Before he died, he said to his sons in his last will, "I've hidden many treasures in the field. So, dig up the ground diligently until you find them." After their father's funeral, the three brothers ran to the field, wishing to find the treasures. They expected there would be precious stones or metals such as gold and silver in the field. However, even though they dug up the whole field and searched through it, they didn't find any treasure. The second and youngest sons finally gave up looking for the treasures. However, the eldest son believed that there would be treasures somewhere in the field as his father had said, and continued to dig out every inch of the field. Meanwhile, the harvest season came, and the field produced twice as many crops as usual. While they were digging up the field to find the hidden treasures, the soil was well cultivated, and it brought forth a plentiful harvest.

In this process, the eldest son thought over what the treasures, which his father had spoken of, really were. In actuality, his parents were not rich enough to possess treasures like gold or silver. Nevertheless, his father said in his last will that he had buried some treasures in the field. The son clearly recognized his father's will to make his sons realize that they would reap a rich harvest if they cultivated the land diligently.

‘This is the treasure which father had meant.'

The eldest brother shared this realization with his younger brothers. From that time on, they worked harder, cultivating the field more diligently, so they were able to live a rich and happy life together.

Sometimes we, God's children, fail to fathom the depth of the words that Heavenly Father and Mother have told us. As Father and Mother say, "Preach," some try preaching but give up easily when they feel tired after trying once or twice. On the other hand, some think there must be a certain will of God and run the path of the gospel diligently so that they can live a life without regret, as did Apostle Paul.

In the above story, the sons dug up the field, expecting to find expensive treasures, but what they obtained was not gold or silver but a spiritual heritage that would serve as a treasure for their families from generation to generation. Likewise, the words God has told us contain a lot of blessings. "Preach fervently; pray continually; study the Word diligently; keep the faith; love one another; be united as one." All these commands surely contain God's will for our own good.

When the sons dug up the ground diligently as their father had told them to do, they came to realize what the treasure truly meant. In the same say, when we practice God's words constantly, we can understand God's will contained in His words, although we fail to know the will of God at the beginning of our practice. When God says, "Pray," those who obey the word and pray hard can understand why God tells them to pray. When God says, "Preach fervently," those who preach eagerly can understand God's will contained in His command to preach. When God says, "Study the Word diligently," those who study the Bible hard can understand His grace contained in it.

Elohim Will Appear in Their Own Time

Elohim Will Appear in Their Own Time
God promised that He would appear according to His own timing (1 Tim. 6:15). Let us confirm what form He will appear in.

Rev. 22:17 『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.』

For our salvation, God always referred to Himself as "us," and then Elohim God appeared—as the Holy Spirit and the Bride—to give us the water of life. In the first book of Timothy, it is written that God alone is immortal and lives in unapproachable light (1 Tim. 6:16). Thus, only the Spirit and the Bride—the Second Coming Christ, Ahnsahnghong, and the New Jerusalem Mother—are immortal and only They have life. Nevertheless, some people boast that they, also, have the power to give life. The people who make such assumptions are greatly mistaken. The Bible says that no one can have life until he or she eats the flesh of the Son of Man and drinks His blood (John 6:53), and Jesus said, "Follow me, and let the dead bury their own dead" (Matt. 8:22). Mere human beings, such as ourselves, cannot say that we are alive.

There is no life in us, so we must go to God—Christ Ahnsahnghong and Mother—if we want to receive eternal life and salvation, because They are the only ones who have life. In order to give the everlasting water of life to mortal beings, God came down to this earth in this last age as the Holy Spirit, Ahnsahnghong, and the Bride, the New Jerusalem Mother. People who pervert or deny this Biblical teaching will never be able to enter the kingdom of heaven.

Elohim God Revealed in the Book of Jeremiah

Elohim God Revealed in the Book of Jeremiah
In the book of Jeremiah we can also find references to Elohim God.

Jer. 31:22 『…The LORD will create a new thing on earth—a woman will surround a man.』

God said that He would create a new thing: a woman would surround a man. Spiritually, this verse has a very profound meaning. The woman, Eve, had once been inside the man. If God had not made the woman with the ribs He had taken out of the man, how could the woman have been able to surround the man? The new thing, that God said He would bring to the earth, would be the revealing of Mother, who has been within God the Father since the beginning. The new thing would be created at the time God established the new covenant.

Jer. 31:31-34 『"The time is coming," declares the LORD, "when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah…"I will put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people. No longer will a man teach his neighbor, or a man his brother, saying, 'Know the LORD,' because they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest."』

In the Hebrew Bible, the word "God" is actually written as "Elohim"—"I will be their God [Elohim]." "Elohim" is the plural form of the word "Eloah," meaning a singular God. Therefore, "Elohim" means "Gods," plural. Once we can understand the concept of Elohim God through the new covenant, we no longer need men to teach us to know God, because we will all know God, from the least of us to the greatest. In the truth of the new covenant, we can only become the children of God when we have God the Father and God the Mother, our Elohim God.

When Elohim God created male and female, They said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness." When Elohim God punished the evil acts of God's people, They said, "Let us go down." When the Gods called to Isaiah, They said, "Who will go for us?" Throughout the Bible, God has existed as the male God and the female God: Elohim.

We can confirm the existence of Elohim God through the book of Isaiah as well. Isa. 6:8 『Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?" And I said, "Here am I. Send me!"』
When God was searching for a man to preach His words, God said, "Who will go for us?" instead of saying, "Who will go for me?" This reveals that not only the Father was working, but that there was a Mother who was working as well.

Elohim God

Elohim God
Elohim GodThe word "Elohim" directly translates to "Gods." The Bible testifies that God exists in the female image, God the Mother, as well as the male image, God the Father. World Mission Society Church of God has received Second Coming Christ Ahnsahnghong, God the Father, and the heavenly Jerusalem, God the Mother. When people hear the word "God," most immediately think of "God the Father," holding to the fixed idea that only God the Father exists; however, the Bible clearly testifies that there is a God the Mother in addition to a God the Father. We sincerely hope that you can break your fixed, man-made ideas so that you can receive the true Saviors: Christ Ahnsahnghong and Jerusalem Mother. Then, let us discover why the members of the Church of God accept Christ Ahnsahnghong and Jerusalem Mother as their Elohim God.Elohim God Revealed in the Book of GenesisLet us confirm that there is both a male and a female image of God, through the book of Genesis. Gen. 1:26-27 『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.』Both males and females were created in the image of God, and thus it is clear that God has two images: a male image and a female image. When God said, "Let us make man in our image," God used the word "us"—a plural term—instead of using "me." We come to understand that not one God, but two Gods—a Father and a Mother—worked together during the Creation. Such plural terms are used to describe God in Genesis chapter 11, also. Gen. 11:1-7 『…The LORD said…"Come, let us go down and confuse their language so they willbuilt the tower of Babel. Through this situation, God testifies that there exists a God the Mother as well as a God the Father by saying, "Let us go down…"
