Christ Ahnsahnghong - Soul

World Mission Society Church of God follows Christ Ahnsahnghong and God the Mother New Jerusalem.

God’s children value the laws of God. Let us introduce the truths of the new covenant of the early Church, which were restored by the Second Coming Christ Ahnsahnghong.


"What happens to a man when he dies?"..."Does a man really have a spirit?"... "Where does a man go when he dies?" Questions such as these have been a matter of great interest throughout history, but no one has been able to answer them. Men eager to find such answers wrote great philosophies, but mere philosophers could never realize how they had been created.
Christ Ahnsahnghong came to the earth, established the Church of God, and taught us that all men are angels who have come to the earth after sinning in heaven. He let us know how valuable we are and revealed to us the true purpose of our lives.


The Spirit Revealed Through the Creation of Human Beings
Gen. 2:7『...The LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.』

The dust is not the essence of life; God didn't name the dust itself a "living being." Only after God had breathed the breath of life into the dust, did He call it a "living being." Therefore, the essence of life is not the flesh, but the breath of life, the spirit that God breathed into the dust. Man's flesh is made from the dust, but his spirit is made by God, and is from God.
Solomon wrote, "The dust returns to the ground it came from, and the spirit returns to God who gave it" (Eccl. 12:7).


Jesus Taught Us About the "Spirit"The concept of "spirit" became clearer in the New Testament.

Matt. 10:28 『"Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell."』

In this verse, Jesus describes the same creation process as in Genesis chapter two, revealing the separation between the death of the body [the dust] and the death of the spirit.
The Greek word for soul in this verse is "pneuma," which means "spirit."

John 4:24 『"God is spirit [pneuma]." 』

2 Cor. 33:17 『Now the Lord [Jesus] is the Spirit [pneuma].』

Heb. 1:14 『Are not all angels ministering spirits [pneuma]...?』

God is spirit and doesn't belong in the flesh. Jesus is spirit and doesn't belong in the flesh. Angels are also spirits who do not belong in the flesh. Thus, a man's death can be separated into two events: the death of the flesh and the death of the spirit. The devil, or another man, can kill our body, but it is only God who can destroy our spirit.
The Apostle Paul, in a letter to the Church in Corinth, wrote as follows:

1 Cor. 2:11 『For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the man's spirit [pneuma] within him? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit [pneuma] of God.』

Jesus taught us that the true essence of our life is not our flesh, but our spirit.


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.


The Apostle Peter's Thoughts About the "Spirit"The Apostle Peter always remembered what Jesus had told him before His ascension.

John 21:18-19 『"I tell you the truth, when you were younger you dressed yourself and went where you wanted; but when you are old you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will dress you and lead you where you do not want to go."Jesus said this to indicate the kind of death by which Peter would glorify God.』

When Peter's life of the gospel was about to come to an end, he worried about the saints, remembering what Jesus had told him.

2 Pet. 1:13-14 『I think it is right to refresh your memory as long as I live in the tent of this body, because I know that I will soon put it aside, as our Lord Jesus Christ has made clear to me. And I will make every effort to see that after my departure you will always be able to remember these things.』

Peter described his death as "putting aside" the tent of the body, and as his "departure." It is clear that it is Peter's spirit that would leave his body. While his spirit was in a fleshly body, the body itself became his spirit's house; after his spirit's departure, the body would return to the ground.
We study the apostles' thoughts to know the teachings that they learned from Jesus. Through the apostles' explanations of the spirit, we can clearly understand that Jesus Christ had taught and revealed that the spirit exists within men.


My True LifeWe often wonder, "Who am I?" Some say, "Man eats to live," while others argue that, "Man lives to eat." Neither of these opinions is correct.
Our main essence is not our physical body, but the spirit inside our body. Our spirit lives in the tent we call our "body." When we go camping, we only stay in a tent for a few days, don't we? The time we spend in the tent is temporary. Likewise, our life within the body?our tent?is only a temporary life.
If we live for our physical body, it means that we are living for our house. Life is to live for ourselves, not for the houses we dwell in.
In our life of faith, we sometimes focus on our physical life more than our spiritual life. Of course, as long as we are in the body, we can't deny the physical life; however, if we live only for a temporary tent which will soon disappear, how pitiful will our life be?
We live in these tents because of our sin, but after we receive the forgiveness of our sins, redemption?under the grace of Christ, the Passover Lamb?our eternal houses wait for us. Let's reconsider what we should focus on while we live on this earth.

2 Cor. 4:18 『So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.』




May God bless you all.

Christ Ahnsahnghong - The Savior of Each Age and the New Name

World Mission Society Church of God follows Christ Ahnsahnghong our God the Father and New Jerusalem our God the Mother.
This age is the age of the Holy Spirit.
In the age of the Holy Spirit, we can be saved only by Jesus’ new name.
Through this subject, let’s find out about the Savior of this age (Jesus’ new name).

Ecc 3:1 “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven.”

Every activity has its own purpose. Our life of faith has a certain goal.

1 Pe 1:8-9 “….for you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls.”

As you see, the goal of our faith is the salvation of our souls, that is, eternal life.
For our salvation, God divided 6,000 years into three ages and gave us a different name of the Savior in each age.

Mt 28:19 “…...baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.”

God told us to baptize people in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
It means that the Father has His name, the Son has His name, and the Holy Spirit also has His name.
As you know, the name of the Father is Jehovah and the name of the Son is Jesus.
Then what is the name of the Holy Spirit? The bible clearly says that there is the name of the Holy Spirit.
Let’s find out what the Holy Spirit’s name is.
First, let’s find out who the Savior was in the age of the Father.

Isa 43:11 “I, even I, am the LORD, and apart from me there is no savior.”

In the age of the Father, who was the Savior?
Only Jehovah was the Savior in the age of the Father.
It changed from the age of the Father to the age of the Son.
In the age of the Son, who was the Savior?

Ac 4:11-12 “Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved.

Then, who was the Savior in the age of the Son? – “Jesus”
Why was that? Because the name of the Savior changed from Jehovah to Jesus, as the age of the Father changed to the age of the Son.
Then, could people be saved by the name of Jehovah in the age of the Son? (No)
Could people be saved by the name of Jesus in the age of the Father? (No)
God gave us a different name for the Savior in each age, and each of the names has time limitation.
Which age do we live in now? We live in the age of the Holy Spirit.
Then, who is the Savior in the age of the Holy Spirit?

Rev 3:12 “I will write on him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God, and I will also write on him my new name.”

Rev 2:17 “… I will also give him a white stone with a new name written on it, known only to him who receives it.”

The new name is the name of the Savior in the age of the Holy Spirit.
In the age of the Holy Spirit, we can be saved only by Jesus’ new name.
And Christ Ahnsahnghong is the Jesus’ new name.
So, Church of God believes in Ahnsahnghong as our Savior in the last age.




May God bless you all.

Christ Ahnsahnghong - The Spirit and the Bride

World Mission Society Church of God follows Christ Ahnsahnghong and God the Mother New Jerusalem who is the Holy Spirit and the Bride.

The Spirit and The Bride are our Father God Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother.

In Revelation 22, the last chapter of the Bible, we can see the scene where God appears as the Spirit and the Bride on this earth and is leading all human beings to salvation. This is a definite revelation that Apostle John saw and a prophecy that must be fulfilled.

Rev 22:17 The Spirit and the Bride,"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.

Here, who are the Spirit and the Bride?
As you know The Spirit is our God the Father.
Then, who is the Bride?
Let's study some of the testimonies about Bride 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.』

The Bible clearly testifies that our heavenly Mother exists.

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 Heavenly Mother.
People who pervert or deny this Biblical teaching will never be able to enter the kingdom of heaven.






May God bless you all.

Christ Ahnsahnghong taught Us Our Home Country

World Mission Society Church of God follows Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother New Jerusaelm who taught us our true home country.

Sometimes while living in this world, we feel like we do not belong or we are lonely. Even according to the Bible, the forefathers of faith admitted they were aliens and strangers on this earth.(Hebrews 11:13) This world is not our true home.

If we come to think about this earth being our true home, then why haven’t the people that died returned? We never see accounts of people coming back to their home on earth. Home means your dwelling place, where you belong. Then if we do not belong to this earth, where is our home?

Philippians 3:20″But our citizenship is in heaven…”

Our true home is the Kingdom of Heaven. That is why our spirits feel like we do not belong. We are from a beautiful place where we are always happy, joyful, and relaxed. Why cannot we not remember such an amazing home?

Isaiah 59:2 ” But your sins have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear.”

Because of our sins, we cannot remember our home. Therefore, we need to be forgiven of our sins. How did God promise us that we can receive this forgiveness?

Matthew 26:19-28 “So the disciples did as Jesus had told them and prepared the Passover.’ ‘This is my blood of the covenant which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of our sins.”

Clearly God promises us forgiveness through the Passover. World Mission Society Church of God preaches the forgiveness of sins through Passover. Truly thanks to Christ Ahnsahnghong, second coming Christ, and Heavenly Mother for the hope of returning to our home and forgiveness of sins.




May God bless you all.

Zion is Church of God World Mission Society

As a Christian I believe to understand God's will and his plan is the most important thing in my life of faith. Then, what if God were to come to the earth? Where will He dwell? Will he go to a certain denomination because of it's millions of followers? Will he go to a humble church with not that many followers? Or will He establish His own Church?

Psalms 132:13 {For the LORD has chosen ZION, he's desired it for his dwelling. "This is my resting place for ever and ever; here (In ZION) I will sit enthroned, for I have disred it-" ...}

God chose Zion, He Himself will establish Zion when he comes in the flesh. Zion is the place where the Feast of God are kept (Is 33:20). Only the Church of God World Mission society keeps the Feasts of God Second Coming Christ brought. In Zion, Church of God World Mission Society, you can find the true Creator God in the flesh, for God has desired to dwell in the Church of God World Mission Society, He Himself established it.




May God bless you all.

World Mission Society Church of God, the Most Important Place on Earth

World Mission Society Church of God follows God the Father Ahnsahnghong and God the Mother New Jerusalem!

The Bible as we know is a book of prophecy but many people have a problem with the Bible because it does not reach deep into the depths of science but even though the Bible shows correlation with science the thing that many fail to understand is that the bible was not made as a regular book of scientific findings but a map and guide to eternal life meaning salvation, for it is written

1st Peter 1:9 for you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls

The Bible in fact tells us that the goal, meaning the purpose and gist of us believing in God is to receive eternal life. But now as we are living in the last days many people try to find God but don’t know where to go but in the scriptures regarding this it is written

Micah 4:1-2 1In the last days the mountain of the LORD’s temple will be established as chief among the mountains; it will be raised above the hills, and peoples will stream to it. 2Many nations will come and say, “Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob. He will teach us his ways, so that we may walk in his paths.” The law will go out from Zion, the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.

Then it says in the Bible that according to prophecies in the last day the mountain of the lord will be placed above all other mountains meaning that this mountain will become the most important place because salvation, eternal life will come from there. It says that the law will go out from Zion. But where is Zion? Of all the things we can search for in our life’s surely this is one that we must seek because from their eternal life will flow. Then let us see through the scriptures where Zion is

Isaiah 33: 20 Look upon Zion, the city of our festivals; your eyes will see Jerusalem, a peaceful abode, a tent that will not be moved; its stakes will never be pulled up, nor any of its ropes broken.

Then according to the scriptures mount Zion is not only the one that existed long ago but one that will be in the last days this is because Zion is wherever Gods feast ( Lev 23:1 )are kept. But also a characteristic of this spiritual Zion in the Last days our eyes will see Jerusalem and the word of God will come from this Jerusalem. But who is this Jerusalem that in the Last days the word of God will come from there?

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.” 10And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God.

Then according to the scripture prophecy the Jerusalem in the last days is not the earthly Jerusalem in the Palestine area but in fact the Heavenly Jerusalem that is the Bride of our father , Christ the lamb ( John 1:35 ). But who is this that is the Heavenly Jerusalem and is the wife of our Father?

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



Yes! The Jerusalem that is testified to be in the last days is our heavenly Mother. This Is in fact why salvation eternal life come from Zion in the last days because the Words of God flow from Zion meaning the words of eternal life. That is why now in the last days we must seek mount Zion which is the World Mission Society Church of God the only place in the World where the feast of God can be found along with the Heavenly Jerusalem our Mother.

John 6:68 ….. to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life

Now in the last days this is the way we should answer when we are on our way to Holy Mount Zion to who else can we seek other than Jerusalem Mother which holds the Words of Eternal Life for she is God Almighty our Mother standing on Mount Zion as was prophesied through the bible. I pray that all will come to holy Mount Zion now in the last days the only place where we can hear the words of Eternal Life which come from our Heavenly Mother.




May God bless you all.

What is the Heresy?

World Mission Society Church of God follows God the Father Ahnsahnghong and God the Mother New Jerusalem.

Many people have a misunderstanding of what heresy is nowadays. Once they find a man practicing doctrines different from their own, they likely think he belongs to a heresy. We are not supposed to judge others by our own thoughts, social standards, or popular opinions. We must understand what heresy is through the Bible.

2 Pe 2:1-3 They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them.
 
The main characteristics of heresy are as follows;
1. It results in destruction.
2. It brings the way of truth into disrepute.
3. It follows man-made teachings, not the teachings of the Bible.
4. It opposes God through the teachings of false prophets.
5. It never leads to salvation.
 
 
What does the Bible say about heresy? It does not follow teachings of the Bible, but man-made teachings instead.  

1. Heresy does not keep the Sabbath in the Bible.The Biblical Sabbath is Saturday. Every church must worship God on Saturday, not on Sunday. there are some proof.
• "… The Scriptures enforce the religious observance of Saturday" (The Faith of Our Fathers, pp. 72~73).
• "The first day of the week [Sunday] was proclaimed as a day of rest and of worship … In 321 A.D. Constantine …" (The Story of the Christian Church, pp. 60~61).
Jesus also testifies the Sabbath day is His custom in the Bible. Jesus kept the Sabbath day as an example so that we should do as He did.
Lk 4:16 On the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom
Jn 13:15 I [Jesus] have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you.

2. Heresy does not celebrate the Passover in the Bible.
The Passover is God's truth that gives us the forgiveness of sins and judges all other gods. Those who do not keep it will be cut off from God's people on the last day.
Mt 26:17-28 This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.
Jn 6:53 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life.
Ex 12:11-12 On the same night … I will bring judgement on all the gods of Egypt.
Nu 9:13 If a man fails who is ceremonially clean and not on a journey fails to celebrate the Passover, that person must be cut off from his people.

3. Most contemporary Christians keep Christmas [Dec. 25th] as Jesus' birthday. In fact, Christmas is one of many pagan festivals not in the Bible.
• "The Christian church took over many pagan ideas and images. From sun-worship, for example, came the celebration of Christ's birth on the twenty-fifth of December, the birthday of the Sun” (A LION HANDBOOK / THE HISTORY OF CHRISTIANITY, p. 141).
• "December 25―this was the date of a pagan festival in Rome, chosen in A.D. 274 by the emperor Aurelian as the birthday of the unconquered sun (natalis solis invicti), which at the winter solstice begins again to show an increase of light" (ENCYCLOPAEDIA BRITANNICA, p. 704).

4. Heresy reveres a cross, an idol, from pagan Rome. It is a type of execution tool used for crucifying brutal criminals, and is not the symbol of Jesus Christ. 
 

The standard of heresy is the bible only. However most of christians don't follow it. 2,000 years ago, Jesus and His Church of God were wrongfully accused as a Nazarene sect, one of the heresies (Ac 24:5). However, most people acknowledge Jesus as their Christ. Likewise, the whole world will acknowledge Christ Ahnsahnghong and the Church of God in the end. Come to the Church of God and receive salvation.




May God bless you.
