[Statement from Shincheonji Church of Jesus on the Issuance of a Detention Warrant for Chairman Lee Man-hee] Shincheonji Church of Jesus expresses deep regret regarding the court's 24 June decision to issue a detention warrant. Chairman Lee Man-hee and the church have maintained fixed addresses and have faithfully cooperated with the authorities at every stage of the investigation, including the searches and seizures.  Through repeated searches and seizures, relevant materials have already been secured, leaving no risk of the destruction of evidence, and given his advanced age of 95, there is likewise no risk of flight. Under these circumstances, the decision to impose detention is deeply regrettable in light of the principle of trial without detention under the Criminal Procedure Act. To detain a 95-year-old individual before the court has had the opportunity to determine the merits of the case is, in effect, imposing a form of physical punishment in advance. As Chairman Lee curre...

Statement by Shincheonji Church of Jesus We deeply regret the Prosecution-Police Joint Investigation Headquarters’ application for an arrest warrant against the Church’s Chairman, Mr. Lee Man-hee. Chairman Lee has acted responsibly by complying with every request from the authorities and has demonstrated good faith by cooperating fully throughout the investigation. Therefore, it is our deepest regret that a request for an arrest warrant has been filed against Mr. Lee, despite there being no risk of flight or evidence tampering. In particular, despite his advanced age of 95, Mr. Lee has consistently responded to the investigation with sincerity. This clear history of compliance points to the lack of necessity and the disproportionality of pretrial detention. Shincheonji Church of Jesus intends to present a thorough account of the relevant facts at the upcoming warrant review hearing, and we trust that the Court will render a wise judgment grounded solely in objective facts and legal me...

[2026-01-28] Shincheonji, Which Has Mastered the Book of Revelation in the New Testament, Is The City Of Truth Christians, have you not added to or taken away from the Book of Revelation in the New Testament? From the perspective of Shincheonji, both Catholic and Protestant churches have added to and subtracted from this book of Revelation. It is written that those who add to or take away from it cannot enter heaven (Rf. Rv 22). Nevertheless, Catholics and Protestants persecuted Shincheonji, calling it heresy. Just like the pastors of Jerusalem at the time of Jesus’ first coming called him a heretic and the devil, today, the Catholic and Protestant pastors, ignorant of the New Testament, do not recognize their own faults but continue to persecute Shincheonji as heresy. Whether in the past or today, the Christian world is chaotic. Today, Shincheonji has mastered not only the true meaning of the Book of Revelation in the New Testament (prophecy) but also its reality, while Catholicism an...

[2026-01-27] Do the Catholic Church and Protestant Churches, Which Have Added to and Taken Away from Revelation, Have the Qualification to Enter Heaven at the Time of Judgment? Pastors, theology professors, and believers of the traditional churches (the Catholic Church and Protestant churches), have you not added to or taken away from the New Testament book of Revelation? From Shincheonji’s perspective, both the Catholic Church and Protestant churches have added to and taken away from the New Testament book of Revelation. It is written that if anyone adds to or takes away from Revelation, that person will not enter heaven and will receive curses (plagues) (Revelation 22:18–19). Despite this fact, just as the shepherds of Jerusalem at the time of the First Coming treated Jesus—who mastered the Old Testament—so today the shepherds of the Catholic and Protestant churches call Shincheonji, which masters Revelation, “heresy, heresy.” It seems they are afflicted with a disease of heresy-accu...

[2026-01-29] Throughout the Ages, False Shepherds Have Persecuted the Promised Shepherd Sent by God After Adam’s sin, in every age God has fulfilled what He promised, and in order to testify to it, He sent a promised shepherd. Yet each time, false shepherds persecuted the promised shepherd. This is evidence that this world is under the rule of the devil. At Jesus’ first coming, and even today at the Lord’s second coming (Ref. Rv 11), the shepherds of the previous age persecuted and killed the promised shepherd sent by God. This shows that although they outwardly claim to “believe in God,” in reality the devil is with them. Jesus is the Son of God and the promised shepherd whom God sent as Savior. At the First Coming, the shepherds of Jerusalem persecuted Jesus, calling him the devil. Likewise today, the shepherds of traditional churches (Catholicism and Protestantism) persecute Shincheonji’s promised shepherd, calling him heretical. Catholicism and Protestantism, which have added to an...

[2026-01-26] Global Peace and the End of War We of Shincheonji (the Promised Pastor, the Messenger of Peace) have traveled around the world 32 times, proclaiming peace and the end of war for all humanity. This is a fact known to nations across the globe. Countries that have experienced war have fallen into deep debt, and countless young lives have been lost. Why must such wars be fought? Through war, wealthy nations have grown even richer, while poor nations have fallen into even greater poverty. Why should we wage wars that take the precious lives of young people and plunge national finances into overwhelming debt? I founded HWPL, an international civilian peace organization, and as a messenger of peace, I have traveled around the world 32 times advocating for global peace and the end of war. I met with presidents, chief justices, speakers of national assemblies, religious leaders, and heads of various organizations in many countries, receiving their promises to work together for the ...
