The Small and Narrow Road to the Kingdom of Heaven and Carrying out the New Covenant

The Small and Narrow Road to the Kingdom of Heaven and Carrying out the New Covenant



God exerted great effort through prophets and apostles to save His rebellious people. However, the devil and those born of the devil’s seed desperately blocked the path of faith for the prophets, apostles, and saints who belonged to God, went so far as to kill them (Mt 23), and constantly made God’s people betray and be destroyed. Therefore, one can have the kingdom of heaven and eternal life by persevering to the end and fighting and overcoming the devil (Rv 12:10-11). This is why it says that the road to the kingdom of heaven is small and narrow (Mt 7:13-14).


In order to restore His kingdom, God promised through the Old Testament prophets that two kinds of seed would be sown and that He would make a new covenant (Jer 31). The two kinds of seed in Mt 13 were sown in the church of Jesus at the time of the first coming and grew together until the time of the harvest (Mt 13:24-30). The time of the harvest is the end of the age and the harvesters are the angels (Mt 13:39). Therefore, at the time of the harvest—which is the end of the age, or, the end of the church of Jesus—Jesus and the angels come together to harvest (Mt 24:29-31). It says that at this time, those born of God’s seed are harvested and go to God’s kingdom, while those born of the devil’s seed are not harvested and are tied up in their own churches until they are judged and enter hell, the fiery lake of burning sulfur (Mt 13:37-43). However, those who have received the spirit of the devil do not believe this fact but are only passionate about persecuting those born of God’s seed. What shall be done about this?


Jesus made the new covenant when he came for his first coming (Lk 22:14-20), and today, the time of his second coming, is the time of the fulfillment of the new covenant, Revelation. At this time, anyone who does not believe the fulfillment of Revelation even after seeing it will not enter the kingdom of heaven, but will receive curses (plagues) (Rv 22:18-19).


The time of the New Covenant Revelation’s fulfillment is the time of the re-creation of God’s kingdom. At the time of Revelation’s fulfillment, all of the prophecies in the four gospels of the New Testament and the fulfilled realities of Revelation appear. The betrayers, destroyers, and savior appear and fight each other, all claiming to be the truth, and the 12 tribes are created through the savior’s victory. This is the work of re-creation. This re-creation takes place in Rv 7 after the event of judgment in Rv 6, and the 12 tribes are created with those who have been sealed with God’s word. This place is a new heaven and new earth (Shincheonji), and it is where Jesus and the angels come (Rv 21). At the time of Revelation’s fulfillment, only the 12 tribes of Shincheonji are saved, enter the kingdom of heaven, and attain eternal life.


Even now, God’s people are fighting against the enemy. The road to the kingdom of heaven may be small and narrow, but by fighting and overcoming to the end, one will have the kingdom of heaven and salvation. Also, just as it the kingdom of heaven and eternal life were promised to those who heard and believed Jesus’ word of life at the first coming, today, the time of the second coming, anyone who believes and keeps the revealed word that testifies the fulfilled realities of Revelation that Jesus fulfilled can attain the kingdom of heaven and eternal life. This is carrying out the new covenant. Amen.

    I was oblivious to the meaning of large parts of the Bible until I came across the revealed theology from Shincheonji Church of Jesus and Chairman Lee #Shincheonjichurch

The Blood and Flesh of the Lamb on Passover Night

The Blood and Flesh of the Lamb on Passover Night   On the Passover night during Moses' time, those who ate the flesh of the lamb and put its blood on their doorframes were saved. However, those who did not eat the flesh of the lamb and put its blood on their doorframes had angels enter their homes, killing the firstborn of both people and animals (Exodus 12). In his first coming, Jesus declared that he was the living bread that came down from heaven and that those who eat his flesh and drink his blood will have eternal life (John 6). This was likening himself to the Passover lamb, calling his words of life the blood and flesh of the lamb. Furthermore, on the Passover night, Jesus established the new covenant, saying, “I will not drink again of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes” (Luke 22:14-20). Do you understand the meaning of these words and the kingdom of God? Not everyone who says, “Lord, Lord,” will be saved, but only those who do the will of the Fathe...

Shincheonji church's Quotes of Life, If we have received grace from heaven,

Shincheonji church's Quotes of Life,  If we have received grace from heaven, we must become people who can offer this grace to others - people who can save others as well. 우리가 하늘의 은혜를 받았다면, 우리도 이러한 은혜를 끼쳐주는 사람, 살려주는 사람이 되어야 한다.  It is only when the Word is engraved into our hearts that we have the Word in us. Therefore, we must not bad-mouth others or behave inappropriately. Instead, we must first examine ourselves and consider whether we have truly been created in accordance with the Word. 말씀을 깨닫고 마음에 새겨졌을 때 (비로소) 진정 이 말씀이 내 속에 들어 있는 것이 된다. 그러니 우리는 공연히 다른 사람을 헐뜯거나 잘못된 행동을 할 것이 아니라, 먼저 이 말씀대로 나 자신이 창조되었는지를 생각해야 한다.  When God created the world in the beginning, can you imagine how beautiful it must have been? Isn't returning to that condition returning to our original (heavenly) home? Thus, instead of applying expensive cosmetics on your face, you must apply the Word to yourself (adorn yourself with the Word.) 하나님께서 태초에 세상을 창조하셨을 때는 얼마나 아름답게 만드셨겠는가? ...
