Q&A on Shincheonji Church of Jesus

 
 
 
Regarding the founding anniversary of Shincheonji Church of Jesus
 
This year, Shincheonji Church of Jesus will not hold an event for its founding anniversary.
 
In addition, all worship services are being held online, and gatherings and meetings are suspended entirely until the new coronavirus epidemic is over. We also notified our congregation that those who have not been tested for the virus will not be allowed to attend service even after the epidemic subsides. If a church is compared to parents, its congregants would be like children. For the church, nothing is more important than the health and safety of its members. In situations where many congregants are suffering from the virus and feeling anxious, we make it clear that the church has no reason at all to resume services and gatherings. (Since 18 February, when the first case of COVID-19 was confirmed in the Daegu Church, all services and gatherings have been suspended entirely.)

Before congregants in Daegu and Gyeongsangbuk-do region were released from self-quarantine on 11 March, the Thaddeus Tribe of Shincheonji announced the following: △all meetings and gatherings are banned even after self-quarantine is lifted, △mass facilities should not be used, and △residents in specially controlled areas should fully cooperate with the Daegu city, Nam-gu Office, and the police.

Also, the announcement stated that personal contact with congregants who are waiting at home for in-patient admission is strictly forbidden, these congregants should isolate themselves completely, and entry to closed-down churches and related facilities is prohibited. The church made clear that it will take disciplinary measures against members acting contrary to the instructions.  

To relieve local residents’ anxiety over those released from self-quarantine, we will not only ban all meetings and but also practice hygiene and social distancing. This is to protect the communities as well as our congregants. We reiterate our intention to cooperate with the public health authorities until the COVID-19 pandemic comes to an end.
 
 
 
About the claim that footage of the 31st patient attending service at the Daegu Church has been deleted
 
On 18 February, the Daegu city took a copy of surveillance footage from inside the Daegu Church of Shincheonji on a USB drive. At the site, officials from the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Daegu City, and Nam-gu Public Health Center confirmed the footage of the 31st patient wearing a mask and using hand sanitizer in the lobby on the first floor. The copy includes the footage of two elevators on the first floor, the lobby of an educational hall on the fourth floor, and inside the church building taken from 7 to 10 A.M. on 9 February and from 7 to 10 A.M. on 16 February. Consequently, the allegation that the surveillance footage of the 31st patient was found missing or intentionally deleted during the administrative investigation on 13 March is not true.
 
 
 

The South Korean government is facing immense pressure to implicate Shincheonji in this coronavirus crisis. Various religious freedom groups such as CESNUR and USCIRF have already spoken out in concern for the treatment of Shincheonji believers. Those who are interested in preserving freedom of religion must also speak out against the discrimination, violence, and scapegoating being faced by this group of people because of their religious practices.

Shincheonji is the Best of All Creations between Heaven and Earth

The one and only God created heaven and earth and everything in them.   #Revelation_I_Have_seen_and_Heard #ShincheonjiOnlineSeminar #Hit_29million_views   As the snake (one of the creations) and Adam sinned, God the creator left this earth (the world). Since then this earth has been under the rule of the snake.     In heaven there is the realm of spirits, and on earth there is the realm of the flesh. The devil, the evil spirit of the snake is with the people on earth in the world of flesh.     God who is in heaven has been teaching the people on earth to make known what happened, and that is religion ( 宗敎 : teaching the utmost, what is shown by heaven*).   God has His throne (Rv 4), and the devil has his throne (Rv 13, Rv 16). So, two kinds of spirits came to be. There is the heavenly spirit and the spirit of the world, that is, the holy spirit of God and the evil spirit of the devil that is the snake (Satan, the dragon)....

Wise Question and Wise Answer 1

W ise Question 1 How can you prove God’s existence? ==================================  Why doesn’t God clearly reveal himself? ==================================       Seeing oneself is evidence of God’s existence.  God does not reveal himself to people because God and men have become enemies. There are two kinds of gods or spirits:  G od the creator, who is life, and an evil spirit, who is a created being. Each kind of god has a ‘parent-god’ and a ‘child-god’. The god who exists within a person is the ‘child-god’. A person (body) is like the house for a god. God is a spirit and the soul is life.   Even if the god leaves, a person is still able to breathe and live because he has a soul.   However, when both the God and the soul leave, that person dies. However, even when the body dies, the spirit is still alive. We cannot know God if we do not know about religion.   Man (Adam), who was create...
