[2026-02-18] When the Old and New Testaments Were Fulfilled, Did the Believers at the Time Believe in Them and the Promised Pastor? In the Old Testament, God announced through various prophets that He would send His son as the savior (see Is 7, Is 9). Therefore, the Israelites awaited the coming of the son of God. At the first coming, Jesus, the son of God, came as the savior according to the process promised in the Old Testament and fulfilled it; however, the Jewish pastors of the time did not believe in Jesus and his work. In the New Testament, Revelation promises Jesus’ second coming, the process and his work at his return. However, although Jesus has returned according to his promise, fulfilled the New Testament Revelation and has the promised pastor to testify about this, the pastors of traditional churches have again not believed in the second coming of Jesus, his work, and the promised pastor chosen by Jesus. They say they "believe" with their lips, but their actions d...

[2026-02-16] Have You Been Registered in the Sealed Twelve Tribes in Revelation? Have the Protestant and Catholic churches of today been registered in the sealed twelve tribes promised in the book of Revelation? After the judgment of the betrayed chosen people in Revelation 6, the twelve tribes were created with those who were sealed in Revelation 7. Anyone who is not registered in these twelve tribes cannot receive salvation. Just as the shepherds of Jerusalem called Jesus a heretic at the time of his First Coming, today the pastors of Protestant and Catholic churches call the twelve tribes (Shincheonji) heretics. These twelve tribes were sealed and created in Rv 7 after the events of Rv 6. This situation is in likeness to Matthew 23. It seems that the “spirit of heresy” is within them, because whenever they open their mouths, the word “heresy” flows out. Who is the heretic—the one who adds to or subtracts from Revelation, or the one who has mastered it? Protestantism and Catholicism ...

[2026-02-14] When the New Testament, Revelation Is Completely Fulfilled, a World Without Death and Suffering Will Come It is written that if anyone adds to or takes away from the Book of Revelation, that person will not enter heaven and will receive curses (plagues) (Rv 22). Then have not the pastors, doctors of theology, and their congregations of the traditional churches (Catholicism and Protestantism), who have labeled Shincheonji as heretical, added to or taken away from this Book of Revelation? Shincheonji has mastered this book, while Catholicism and Protestantism have added to and taken away from it. So who is calling whom heretical? Those who are heretical are the pastors of Catholicism and Protestantism and their believers who have added to or taken away from the Book of Revelation. Just as the shepherds of Jerusalem called Jesus a heretic at his first coming, today the pastors of the traditional churches (Catholicism and Protestantism) have called Shincheonji heretical, even ...

[2026-02-13] Will There Be Anyone Who Believes at the Time of the Second Coming of Jesus? At the First Coming time, Jesus often said, ‘You of little faith,’ to his followers. Today at the Second Coming time, (the time of Revelation of the New Testament) will there be anyone who believes? As seen in Lk 18:8, Jesus said, “When the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?” Since [they] don’t know the meaning of the Revelation of the New Testament(prophecy) nor its realities, how will they believe? However, these people do not know about themselves, but they call ‘cult, cult’ to others who do not belong to their organization. The world of Christianity is in madness. It is written in Rv 22 that if one adds to or takes away from Revelation, they will receive curses (plagues). However, despite it being approximately 2,000 years since the Book of Revelation was recorded, not a single person among the believers of traditional Christian churches were able to master the meaning of it. T...

[2026-02-12] The Creation of the Twelve Tribes of Shincheonji (New Spiritual Israel) The nation of physical Israel, who believe in God as Father, are the descendants who continued through the bloodline of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. And at the time of the First Coming, there were those who became children of God by receiving Jesus. These were born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God (John 1:12–13). These are the spiritual Israel, the spiritual children of God. Just as God has accomplished His will in heaven, He has likewise been fulfilling it on this earth. Therefore, at the time of the fulfilment of Revelation today, as seen in Revelation 7 and 14, those who are sealed with God’s seal have been created as the twelve tribes of Shincheonji (Rev. 21:1). This is the new spiritual Israel, and these also are the spiritual children of God. In the Book of Revelation in the New Testament, Jesus said, “Overcome.” Thus, in Revelation 12, there is the...

[2026-02-11] Which of the Two Kinds of People Born of the Two Seeds Spoken of in Matthew 13 Are You? Of the two kinds of people born of either of the two seeds spoken of in Matthew 13, one kind is the people born of God’s seed, and the other is the people born of the devil’s seed. The purpose of deeply studying the New Testament is to understand the two kinds of people born of either of these two seeds. The New Testament, Revelation, plainly reveals the realities of the people born of these two seeds.  In Revelation 22, it says that anyone who adds to or subtracts from the book of Revelation cannot enter the kingdom of heaven and will be cursed (receive plagues). Doctors of Theology and pastors of traditional churches: have you not added to or subtracted from Revelation? From Shincheonji’s perspective, all of you, without exception, have added to or subtracted from all of the New Testament, Revelation. Despite this being true, the pastors of the traditional churches today have call...

[2026-02-10] Christianity’s End and the Appearance of Heaven Today, as the New Testament Book of Revelation is being fulfilled, we can see the destruction of the Christian world as described in Rev 6 and 18, and we can also see the coming of heaven as described in Rev 7 and 21. As recorded in the Book of Revelation, if anyone adds to or takes away from the words of this book, they will not be able to enter heaven but will receive curses (plagues) (Rev 22). In the Revelation that I have seen, there is no other place of salvation except one. In this world, it seems that the most ignorant and sinful place is the religious (Christian) world. This religious world appears to be a battlefield between evil (sin) and good. This world, from which God has departed, seems to be filled with the devil. Therefore, this world seems like hell. However, if God, the angels, and the spirits of the martyrs were to return and live in this world, then this world would become heaven. The New Testament Book of...

[2026-07-23] [Official Statement] Shincheonji Church of Jesus's Position on Assemblyman Song Young-gil's False Remarks Regarding "110,000 Shincheonji Members Joining the Party and Interfering in the Primary” Shincheonji Church of Jesus hereby clearly states that the remarks made by Democratic Party of Korea Assemblyman Song Young-gil during the New Media Grand Debate on the 21st, and subsequently reported by the press, claiming that "110,000 Shincheonji members joined during the 2021 People Power Party presidential primary," are entirely false. The claim that this denomination collectively enrolled 110,000 responsible party members into the People Power Party in 2021, or that votes were concentrated on a specific candidate under the Chairman's instruction, is a clear falsehood with absolutely no objective basis. This denomination has not interfered in the People Power Party's presidential candidate primary, nor has it issued any such instruction. We expre...

[2026-07-16] Rebuttal Statement in Response to the Statement Issued by Citizens’ Solidarity for the Protection of Gwacheon Respected citizens, Gwacheon Church of Shincheonji Church of Jesus is issuing this statement to correct the factual inaccuracies contained in the statement released by the Citizens' Solidarity for Protection of Gwacheon on 7 July. The Citizens’ Solidarity for Protection of Gwacheon issued a statement calling for the denial of Shincheonji Gwacheon Church’s application to change the use of the facility to a religious facility, citing Gwacheon’s unique urban structure, student safety, and the inconveniences caused by large gatherings. Their assertions regarding “resident safety” and “protection of the educational environment” amount to unilateral claims that infringe upon constitutionally guaranteed fundamental rights and seek to stigmatize a particular religion to drive it out of the local community. While we deeply understand parents’ concerns regarding safet...

[2026-02-02] The Difference Between One Who Overcomes the Enemy Dragon and One Who Is Defeated Is Heaven and Hell At the time of the fulfillment of Revelation, after the chosen people who betrayed are judged in Rv 6, the twelve tribes are created in Rv 7 through those who are sealed. The difference between those who are sealed and those who are not sealed is heaven and hell. According to the New Testament book of Revelation, those who are sealed will fully understand Revelation, while those who are not sealed will add to or take away from Revelation. In Rv 22, it is written that if anyone adds to or takes away from this book of Revelation, they will not enter heaven and will receive curses (plagues). Have not the theological doctors and pastors of traditional churches (Catholicism and Protestantism) added to or taken away from this book of Revelation? They have all done so. Despite this fact, the pastors and congregants of traditional churches have persecuted Shincheonji, which was sea...

[2026-01-31] Biased Religious Oppression Without Verifying Heavenly Law and Biblical Facts If the current government engages in biased religious oppression against Shincheonji without properly verifying Heavenly law and biblical facts, Shincheonji will uphold its religious convictions and move forward with the spirit of martyrdom. Also, this incident, tainted by falsehoods, will be recorded in the entire Christian world and history. If politicians elected by the people, out of ignorance about religion, oppress the people and religion in a biased manner, not only they themselves but also the nation will be put at risk. Do not ignore the words of the Bible. In approximately 2,000 years of Christian history since Jesus at the First Coming, the Book of Revelation in the New Testament has been fulfilled in our time, and Shincheonji is the new kingdom and new people—the 12 Tribes—promised in the New Testament Book of Revelation. As specified in Article 20 of our Constitution, politics and re...

[2026-01-30] Those Who Falsely Testify about The Book of Revelation and Those Who Believe Those Lies Will Enter the Fire of Hell. It is written that anyone who adds to or takes away from the book of Revelation cannot enter heaven (Rv 22:18–19). God has never lied. Therefore, anyone who adds to or takes away from Revelation cannot enter heaven and will go into the fire of hell. The Catholic Church and Protestant churches that have added to or taken away from Revelation should examine themselves in front of these words and judge whether they can enter heaven or not. They often call others “heretics,” but in fact, they themselves are heretics because they have added to or taken away from Revelation. In this sense, how can they have the right to call others heretics? Even though this is true, the leaders of the Catholic and Protestant churches, who have altered Revelation, call Shincheonji a “heretic,” just as the leaders of Jerusalem called Jesus a heretic at the time of His first coming....

[2026-06-11] What about Bible Studies at Shincheonji Church Resonates with Millennials and Gen Z—the Generations Seeking Catharsis - 59% of Protestant Young Adults “Want Bible-Based Sermons”—Many Find Their Answers at Shincheonji - Non-Religious Youth Who Avoid “Wasting Time” Are Driven by a Need for Cognitive Closure - 50.7% of Graduates Say They Gained Inner Peace, Emerging as a New Haven for Young Adults The demographic profile of new members joining Shincheonji, Church of Jesus, Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony (Chairman Lee Man-hee, hereinafter Shincheonji Church of Jesus) is becoming increasingly younger. According to internal statistics, the proportion of new members in their 20s and 30s has shown a steady upward trend, rising from 17.51% in 2024 to 19.87% in 2025, and reaching 21.79% as of the end of April 2026.  At a time when many religious organizations are facing an aging membership base due to declining youth participation, the continued growth of young adult ...

[Statement from Shincheonji Church of Jesus on the Court's Dismissal of Chairman Lee Man-hee's Request for Review of the Legality of Detention] Shincheonji Church of Jesus expresses deep regret over the court's decision on 28 June to dismiss Chairman Lee Man-hee's request for a review of the legality of his detention , which had been filed on the grounds that there was neither any risk of the destruction of evidence nor any risk of flight , and in light of his advanced age of 95 . As all relevant materials have already been secured through extensive searches and seizures, leaving no risk of the destruction of evidence or flight , it is deeply regrettable that the detention has nevertheless been maintained . In particular, subjecting a 95-year-old individual to detention during the investigation is an unduly harsh measure that threatens his life and health and seriously infringes upon his constitutional right to a defense. As the question of detention does not determ...

[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...

[2026-01-23] Who Am I According to The Book of Revelation? It is written in Rv 22 that if anyone adds to or takes away from the Book of Revelation, they will not enter heaven and will receive plagues (curses). Have the traditional churches (Catholic and Protestant) not added to or taken away from Revelation? Do not lie—speak honestly. They have all added to and subtracted from it. Therefore, they cannot enter heaven and will receive curses. Those who have added to or taken away from this book of Revelation, have called Shincheonji—who has mastered Revelation—a cult (heresy), just like the pastors of Jerusalem did to Jesus in the First Coming. Between those who have mastered Revelation and those who have altered it, who is orthodox and who is heresy? From the perspective of Shincheonji, both Catholicism and Protestantism have added to and taken away from the Book of Revelation in the New Testament. Shincheonji, however, after the event of betrayal and destruction of the chosen people in...

The Promise of the New Testament Revelation In Rv 2-3, it is promised that the one who fights and overcomes will be given the authority to rule all nations with an iron scepter. This battle (war) was between those belonging to God and those belonging to the devil. Who won? The pastor belonging to God won (see Rv 12). The one who overcomes will receive what is promised in the New Testament Revelation (Rv 2-3). However, those who do not understand the meaning of the New Testament Revelation will not understand its true meaning and reality even when they see its fulfillment. Just as Jesus, the savior (the promised pastor), fulfilled the Old Testament approximately 2,000 years ago but the pastors of Israel of that time did not understand and persecuted him, today, the promised pastor has fulfilled the New Testament Revelation, but the traditional church pastors, even after seeing the realities, do not understand and have persecuted again. “Pastors, theologians, isn't this true? Isn...
