Those Who Are Waiting For The Christ

Hebrews 9:28   28 so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.

I have already come

 This is a prophecy about Christ who is coming for the second time to this earth. He must appear a second time and bring salvation to those who are waiting for him. That is why those who are waiting for the Christ always want to know about the Christ who will come in the last days. When will he come? In what form would he come? What would be the sign of his coming? Disciples of his first coming also eagerly wanted to know about all these information about his second coming so that they would meet him to receive salvation?

Mt 24:1   Jesus left the temple and was walking away when his disciples came up to him to call his attention to its buildings. 2 “Do you see all these things?” he asked. “Truly I tell you, not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.” 3 As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately. “Tell us,” they said, “when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?”

They wanted to know about his second coming and they asked about the things that would happen in the time of his coming so that they would know the time for his coming through the signs. To answer these questions Jesus gave a lot of teaching about the signs of his coming in the last days. Therefore, we also must know the signs he gave his disciples so that we would not miss him when he is coming. Then how would he come? In what form or way would he appear to us? The bible says, “He will appear a second time.” Through this we can get the hint of his second time. This sentence means he would appear a second time just as he appeared for the first time. Then how did Christ appear the first time? Even though he was God, he appeared to us as man in the flesh.

We can find out the Christ coming even through the word, “Christ.” Christ means “an Anointed One.” In the time of the Old Testament three types of people could get anointed: first kings, second high priest, and last prophet. So the Anointed One means a person who gets anointed to be a king, a high priest, and a prophet. Simply it was given to teach us the Christ in Greek or Messiah in Hebrew who would appear to his people to be a king, a high priest, and a prophet. This prophecy was, as we already know, fulfilled by Jesus who appeared to God’s people as Anointed One or Christ. He appeared as man in the flesh just like one of us and spiritually got anointed through his baptism to be a king, high priest, and prophet to the Jews. (John 18:37, Hebrews 5:10, Acts 3:22) Therefore, Christ means God who is coming as man in the flesh to get anointed as Savior for his people. This is how Christ appeared for the first time.

Then through this first coming we must understand his second coming too. The bible says he would appear a second time to bring salvation. Then how would he appear a second time? Many says that he would appear in his spiritual glory among the clouds and with a loud trumpet call with all the heavenly angel to make a judgment for all the people of the world. This is not true at all. Because Jesus himself prophecied that he would appear as man in the flesh for the second time and the purpose of his coming for the second time is not to make a judgment, but to bring salvation. It means his second coming is not for the destruction, but for eternal life. He foretold that the world would be filled with lawlessness in the last days and all the people would follow and worship the dragon (the Satan) in the last days without having the knowledge of God. In this situation, if he comes to make a judgment, who would receive salvation? Nobody.

Luke 18:8   8 I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?

This is not  a question, but he says that he would not be able to find faith on this earth. Then when he comes to this faithless world as judge in the last days, who would receive salvation? Through this we can see he must not appear among the cloud with full spiritual glory to make a judgment. Let us confirm one more time.

Luke 12:49     “I have come to bring fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled! 50 But I have a baptism to undergo, and what constraint I am under until it is completed!

 

He said that he must be baptized again in the future. Baptism is one time ceremony to be born spiritually on this earth. But Jesus said that he must be baptized again. Then what does this mean? It means he must come as man in the flesh for the second time and he must be baptized for the second time. In short, he is teaching us that he must come again as the Anointed One or Christ in the future to be a king, high priest, and a prophet. In the Book of John he teaces the same thing.

John 10:16   I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd.

He came as shepherd for the Jews 2000 years ago, but now he was prophesying that he must come as shepherd for the sheep outside the pen, which means Gentiles who were once not considered as people of God. He must come for the Gentiles and preach to them too, Then if Christ is coming as judge without preaching to the Gentiles, what would happen to the Gentiles? They would be destroyed, right? Therefore, he must appear for the second time as Anointed One and must preach the words of God to the people who did not know God and give them salvation. According to the bible he must come for the seocnd time as man in the flesh in secret and preach the gospel to his people to gather them together in the last days.

In the parable of “Weeds and Wheat” Jesus said that he would send out his angels at the harvest time or the end of age and pull out all the weed to tie them into bundles and burn in the fire. And also he would gather all the wheat or his people in the heavenly barn. About his Apostle John explains in the Book of Revelation:

Revelation 7:1   After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth to prevent any wind from blowing on the land or on the sea or on any tree. 2 Then I saw another angel coming up from the east, having the seal of the living God. He called out in a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm the land and the sea: 3 “Do not harm the land or the sea or the trees until we put a seal on the foreheads of the servants of our God.” 4 Then I heard the number of those who were sealed: 144,000 from all the tribes of Israel.

“Four winds” means disasters coming from all the four corners of the earth, which brings complete destruction for land, sea, and tree. The day when the winds are released is the Day of Judgment. But just before the Day of Judgment, God send out his angel to seal his people to give protection from the disasters so that they could receive salvation. Who would this angel be who brings “the seal of God”? Who has the authority to use the seal of God? The seal of a king can be exercised by the King himself. In the same way, the one who bring the seal of God is God himself coming down to bring  salvation. That is the Second Coming Christ “who appears to bring salvation.” According to the bible, the seal of God which gives protection for the disasters is the Passover. Therefore, the angel who brings the seal of God is Christ who brings to restore the Passover of the new covenant which was abolished by Emperor Constantine in 325 BC. According to this prophecy, the one who brings the seal of God (or salvation) is the Second Coming Christ who we should wait for. Then at our time, who restored the Passover the seal of God again for us so that we can be protected from disasters? It is Christ Ahnsahnghong. Nobody on this earth could restore the Passover because God’s prophecy can be accomplished only by God himself. No wise man or scholar can understand the words of God in the bible. Therefore, Ahnsahnghong, even though he came in humble human form from a unknown family and country, is the Christ who we have been waiting for salvation.

All those who are waiting for the Christ who appears for the second time to bring salvation must come to Christ Ahnsahnghong and keep the Passover of the new covenant to receive the seal of God. Also we must receive God the Mother who is the reality of the new covenant, the true reality of Adam’s flesh and blood which gives us salvation.
