  • [WMSCOG] Spiritual World Hidden In Physical World

    Many people says that the spiritual things supposed to be invisible, so it is natural for us not to know the spiritual world. If someone says that he knows the spiritual world, he is wrong. Is it true? Are we not allowed to know the spiritual world?

    Romans 1:20  For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.

    The bible teaches us that we cannot make excuses for not knowing the spiritual and invisible world because God gave us a way to know and see the spiritual things. The spiritual world can be known through the physical world. In other words, the physical world on this earth was given to us as copy and shadow to know the spiritual world which is reality and original. The reality or original can be seen and understood through the copied things on this earth.

    Heb 8:5   They serve at a sanctuary that is a copy and shadow of what is in heaven. This is why Moses was warned when he was about to build the tabernacle: “See to it that you make everything according to the pattern shown you on the mountain.”

    According to the bible, the earthly sanctuary was made as copy and shadow of the heavenly sactuary which original and reality. Then can we say that we do not know the heavenly sanctuary? No, we can’t. We are supposed to know the heavenly or invisible sanctuary. Then how? The invisible sanctuary was made visible through the earthly or visible sanctuary. Then in this case can anybody make excuse for not knowing the heavenly sanctuary? Not at all. By simply looking at the earthly sanctuary, they can grasp the characteristics of the heavenly sanctuary.

    Then what about the invisible image of God? Are we supposed not to know God? The bible says that even though God is invisible, there is a way for us to know God. How could it be possible? The bible says one thing on this earth was given to us to teach us “God’s invisible qualities-His eternal power and divine nature.” Then what was given to us to know God?

    God let us know who he is through the creation of man? God created man in his own image, creating them as male and female.

    Gen 1:26  Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”  27 So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.

    We cannot see the invisible image of God, but God gave us mankind to teach us the image of God. By looking at the image of visible man, we can know the invisible image of God. After creation, we can see two different images of man, male and female. Then through these visible images of man as copy and shadow, what is the original and reality that we should know? The invisible image of God. Then how many images of God will exist in heaven? Two, male and female. What has been the title given to this male image of God? God the Father. Then what title can be given to this female image of God? God the Mother.

    Even from the creation of the world, God already let us know the existence of two different image of God, Father and Mother. According to the bible, just as God the Father appeared as man in the flesh 2000 years ago, God the Mother will appear as man (or more precisely woman) in the flesh in the last days to give us eternal life. Are you prepared to accept God the Mother who will appear in the human form in the last days? When she does appear, how can we know who she is? “These are the Scriptures that testifies about me,” said Jesus. Christ, God who comes as man in the flesh is testified in the bible. You should be prepared to recognize her to accept her and receive salvation. She might appear as ordinary woman; but in actuality she is the one who can give you eternal life if you are willing to accept.

  • [WMSCOG] Who Should We Know Through The Bible?

    What is the bible for? What is it that we should learn from the bible? Is it moral lessons, history, stories…?

    John 5:39  You study the Scriptures diligently because you think that in them you have eternal life. These are the very Scriptures that testify about me, 40 yet you refuse to come to me to have life.

    Who is written in the Bible? How can we know the one to come?

    The bible is the book that testifies about the Christ or the Anointed One. The Christ means God Almighty who comes down as man in the flesh. When God comes down to this earth, he will make himself as man in every way so that it might be almost impossible for people to distinguish the Christ by looking at his physical appearance. That is why Jesus Christ was rejected by people of the time even though he was the God they believe for such a long time. Only a small number of people could see the divinity hidden behind the physical appearance of the Christ. Then how could they know? Through the Scriptures that is the bible because the bible is the book which testifies about the Christ. The only way for us to know the Christ is through the prophecies of the Scriptures. That is why even Jesus himself testified about himself through the bible, not through the miracles and wonders.

    John 5:31  If I testifiy about myself, my testimony is not valid. There is another who testifies in my favor, and I knwo that his testimony about me is valid.

    Who was the one testifies about Jesus? John the Baptist? No, Jesus says, “I have testimony weightier than that of John” immediately afterward. Then who is he speaking about? God. How can we receive God’s testimony so that we know who the Christ is? Through the bible.

    Luke 24:27  And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself.

    After resurrection, Jesus appeared to his disciples who almost lost their faith in Jesus because of the things that happened to him: his suffering and death on the cross. To renew their faith in him, he simply showed them through the Scriptures the reason why all those things should happen to him. By teaching them the prophecies of the bible and the fulfillment through his death and resurrection, he was proving them that he is the Christ.

    By using the bible to testify about himself, he is teaching us that the bible is the only true testimony or the weightier testimony coming from God himself. The only way for us to understand who the true Christ is through the testimony of God recorded in the bible.

    1 Corinthians 15:3   For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures

    Therefore, all the disciples of Christ also used the words of God in the bible to testify about the Christ. Those who believed God’s testimony in the bible could receive the Christ, but those who didn’t believe rejected him. All these things written in the past was written to teach us. Like the Jews who were tested about their faith in God through the Christ who fulfilled the words of God in the bible, we also are being tested now on our faith in God through the Christ who would appear for the second time according to the Scriptures. The story of the Jews teaches us what we should do to know the Christ, God coming as man in the flesh.

    The only way for us to pass the test is through the testimony of God in the bible. Who does the bible say Christ Ahnsahnghong is? Who does the bible say the Heavenly Jerusalem is? The bible says that they are God, the Spirit and the Bride who give eternal life in the last days. The Jesus who said, “I will raise him up in the last days” came back again in the name of Christ Ahnsahnghong and giving out the water of life.

  • [WMSCOG] If God Is Standing In Front Of You

    [WMSCOG] If God Is Standing In Front Of You

    When Jesus came down to this earth 2000 years ago, he was not welcomed by his people even though he was the God they had believed since the time of Abraham.

    John 1:10 He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him.

    Ecce Homo! Look at this man. Who is he to you? Is he a man or God? Is Christ Ahnsahnghong a man or God?

    It was mainly because people just looked at the physical appearance of Jesus Christ: his family background, his education, his social status, his birth place, his appearance. When they considered these physical aspects of Jesus, he was a son of carpenter unschooled and unauthoritative. Everything they saw about Jesus made them fall away from him. They could see only “a mere man who claimed to be God.” They could not see the Almightiness of God: his power and glory in Jesus Christ. Jesus was completely different from their expectation of God. Therefore, they mocked him and ridiculed him, saying, “Prophesy! Who hit you?” after blindfolding him.

    Jesus was so much distressed about Jerusalem for its unbelief and disobedience, and he wept over it, saying, “If you, even you, had only known on this day what would bring you peace–but now it is hidden from your eyes.” Their savior was standing in front of them and teaching them that he was God that “I and Father are one.” The blind could open their eyes, but those who claimed that they could see was condemned because they were spiritually blind and yet they refused to be healed.

    John 9:39  Jesus said, “For judgment I have come into this world, so that the blind will see and those who see will become blind.” 40Some Pharisees who were with him heard him say this and asked, “What? Are we blind too?” 41Jesus said, “If you were blind, you would not be guilty of sin; but now that you claim you can see, your guilt remains.

    The same Christ who came as humble man is prophesied to come back again as man in the same way. The bible says that “he will appear for the second time for salvation to those who are waiting for him.” Just as he appeared as man in the flesh for the first time, he will appear as man for the second time.

    1John 3:8  The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil’s work.

    How did the Son of God or Jesus appear for the first time? Then how will he appear for the second time? When he appears as man in the flesh for the second time, are we better prepared than Jews in the time of Jesus? Can we recognize him and accept him or are we going to make the same mistakes by rejecting him and losing our chance of salvation?  He already prophesied that he would be rejected by people when he comes back for the second time.

    Luke 17:25  But first he must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.

    Why will the Second Coming Christ be rejected by people of the contemporary generation when he comes back in the last days? It would be because of the same reasons for which people rejected him when he came for the first time. People will judge the Christ according to the worldly point of view or human standards such as his education, family, birth place, occupation, etc.. And people will reject him because he does not match with their own expectation.

    Imagine that Christ is standing in front of you as passerby on the street, in subway, or at a bus stop. Will you be able to recognize him as your savior? Would you be able to say, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God” like Peter. How would you know him? The same Peter let us know how he could know the Christ. Even though others deserted Jesus, he could remain in Christ with faith in him. He said:

    John 6:68  Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? you have the words of eternal life. We believe and know that you are the Holy One of God.”

    Through the words of God he could see the true identity of Jesus hidden behind the flesh and blood. Through the fulfillment of the words of God he could recognize the Christ. To fulfill the prophecies of the bible, the Spirit and the Bride, our Father and Mother came down to this earth to give us the words of eternal life. They are calling, “Come to me and I will heal you so that you can see and hear.” Now what do you think of yourself? Do you think you are blind or you can see? If you admit you are blind, Father and Mother will heal you so that you can see and believe. But if you insist that you can see, you might have to find your own salvation, which would be impossible.

    Jeremiah 2:13  “My people committed two sins: They have forsaken me, the spring of living water and have dug their own cisterns, broken cisterns that cannot hold water.”

    God teaches us to seek God and he will answer you. Seek the Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother Jerusalem and then they will heal you with living water and lead you to the eternal heaven where we should go back. if God is standing in front of you, will you be able to recognize the man as God who might be at odds with your expectation in every way? Can you say like Peter, “I know who you are by the words you give us” by believing in the words of God in the bible?

  • Shalom! Peace Upon You!

    Matthew 10:12 And when you enter into the house, give that household your “Shalom (or peace)!”

    The most common Jewish greeting is to say, “Shalom!” which means “Peace upon you!” Similarly in Korea we also greet each other saying, “Did you have peace last night?” The western style greetings such as handshake or salute also originated to mean peace. Then why do people throughout the world have a similar way of greeting? Why is peace so important part of life?

    Christ wanted to give us rest and peace. What is the peace we must receive from God?

    Looking back upon Korean customs, the way of greetings changed as time goes by. About 60 years ago after the Korean civil war people greeted with each other in the morning saying, “Did you have breakfast?” It was a time of need and many people could not eat properly. And they wanted to make sure that everybody had something for breakfast and everybody was managing themselves in this world. Another common expression is “Are you healthy?” Today, most Korean simply say, “Do you have peace?” Here peace means many things: peace in mind, body and maybe soul. And it means “Are you okay in every way?” Then why were they asking each other about breakfast, health or peace? Because those things were lacking even though they are essential in life. Once in history in Korea, food was lacking; and health and peace, nowadays.

    Through this teaching of Jesus, we can confirm again that peace is lacking in this world. The bible teaches us that all the people are just aliens and strangers on this earth. They do not belong here.

    Hebrews 12:13 13 All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance, admitting that they were foreigners and strangers on earth.

    1Chr 29:15  We are aliens and strangers in your sight, as were all our forefathers. Our days on earth are like a shadow, without hope.

    Think about the life as stranger or foreigner in a land. The life would be laborious, hard and lonely. There is no peace in mind or in body. Neither is it easy for them to find peace with others around them. And the bible teaches us that our life is the same. We have no peace in this world; no comfort, or no rest. God had pity and compassion on us and he wanted to give some peace to us.

    Exodus 20:8  8 “Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your male or female servant, nor your animals, nor any foreigner residing in your towns. 11 For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.

    In the spiritual sense everyone on this earth is an alien or a stranger living without any hope. But God gave to restless strangers on this earth Sabbath, the day of rest so that they can take rest. Through the Sabbath Day we can lay down the burdens we carry on this earth and can receive the blessings of rest and peace which are what is most lacking in us. The seventh day (Saturday) is the Sabbath, the day of God.

    Luke 10:5  When you enter a house, first say, ‘Peace to this house.’

    While we are living the life of hardships under the slavery of sin and death without have any rest and peace, Christ Ahnsahnghong restored the Sabbath for us so that we can take rest and so that we can have eternal rest after this life of strangers on this earth is over. And God is teaching us to remember and keep the Sabbath Day holy. In the Church of God we keep the Sabbath Day, Saturday according to the teachings of God Elohim.

  • [WMSCOG] The Tree of Life and the Passover

    Revelation 22:1  Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb 2 down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations.

    This photo of Disney’s Animal Kingdom is courtesy of TripAdvisor

    According to the bible there is a tree which bears twelve crops a year and it produces leaves that heals the nations. What is this tree? How can we eat from the tree? Even from the beginning God already taught us about the tree of life so that we might understand the meaning of the tree.

    Genesis 3:22  And the Lord God said, “The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever.”

    According to the bible, the tree of life is a tree which gives the eternal life when we eat from it. Adam and Eve were given the opportunity to eat from the tree and live forever, but they disobeyed the commands of God and ate from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. They could not eat from the tree of life anymore and they could not have eternal life. Then what is the tree of life we must eat from to live forever? Is there any place with a secret garden with the tree of life planted in the middle? With the help of satellites and all the scientific tools, we now know there is no such place in this world. Then what is the tree of life? If it is meaningless to us, God would not have written this story in the bible. Everything was given to us to teach us about our salvation. Jesus let us know how we should read this book of Genesis.

    Matthew 13:34  34 Jesus spoke all these things to the crowd in parables; he did not say anything to them without using a parable. 35 So was fulfilled what was spoken through the prophet:
    “I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter things hidden since the creation of the world.”

    Just as Jesus spoke in parable which contains hidden message in it, the book which speaks about the creation of the world, that is, Genesis also contains hidden messages in it. It means the creation of the world itself is a huge parable. Therefore, the tree of life in the book of Genesis is also a figurative language, not a reality itself. Then how can we find the reality of the tree of life? Who came to teach us the hidden things in the creation of the world? Jesus came to “utter things hidden since the creation of the world.” Therefore, we must take a look at Jesus teaching to find the reality of the tree of life. Then according to Jesus’ teaching what should we eat to live forever?

    Jn 6:53   Jesus said to them, “Very truly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. 54 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.

    According to Jesus’ teaching what should we eat to live forever? His flesh and his blood. Then what is the true reality of the tree of life? His flesh and blood. Just as Adam and Eve were forfeited of the tree of life (eternal life) because of their disobedience to the words of God, who said, “You must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of Godd and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die,” we too disobeyed the words of God and the eternal life was taken away from us. However, Christ came and opened the way to the tree of life again so that we can eat and live forever through his flesh and blood.

    Mt 26:26  While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take and eat; this is my body.” 27 Then he took a cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you. 28 This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.

    Through the Passover of the new covenant, our sins can be forgiven and we can receive eternal life back again. Just as we sinned and death came to all men (Rom 5:12) because of our disobedience to the words of God, we can receive eternal life and salvation by obeying the words of God in the Passover.

    Even though the truth of Passover, the true reality of the tree of life was taken away from us, but to fulfill the prophecy Christ Ahnsahnghong appeared for the second time to give salvation to those who are waiting for him and restored the Passover for our salvation. And in the Church of God, we keep the Passover out of obedience to the words of God. Do you also want to eat from the tree of life?

  • [WMSCOG] The Gift of God

    The 11.5-kilogram (25.35-pound) oval gemstone named “Teodora” or “God’s Gift,” figures out to 57,000 carats and was appraised Monday at $1.15 million, the Canadian Broadcasting Corp. reported. It goes up for sale Jan. 28.
    ELOWNA, British Columbia, Jan. 17, 2012 (UPI)

    Gift of God eternal life
    Gift of God

    A huge emerald stone was found and it was so huge and rare and people named it “the Gift of God.” Even though it was appraised at $1.15 million, a dealer gave real appraisal by saying, “Really the sky is the limit.” There are people who will pay anything to get this biggest and rarest gem stone. Spiritually Jesus taught the same thing and he taught us that there is a true gift of God that we must seek and get even though we might have to sacrifice everything we have.

    Matthew 13:44  “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field. 45“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. 46When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it.

    Then what is the teasure or pearl which worth more than anything we have? What is the treasure which we should get even though we have to pay with everything we have? What is the gift of God?

    Romans 6:23  For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

    The bible teaches us that the true gift of God we must seek is “eternal life.” That is why Jesus also taught, “What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul?” (Mt 16:26) The life for the soul, or the eternal life is the most important thing we must seek.

    And to give us this gift of God, he also let us know how to receive this gift of God, eternal life. He said, “Whoever eats my flesh and and drinks my blood has eternal life,” (Jn 6:54) and again he said, “This bread is my flesh and this cup of wine is my blood.” (Mt 26:26) He sacrificed even his own life to give us this precious gift of God, eternal life.

    But is there any who has wisdom to recognize the true value of the gift of God? We are acting like animals which have no wisdom trampling the precious gift of God down and denying the value of it. Even though once we might have rejected the gift of God out of our ignorance, but now we must have wisdom and understanding to know the spiritual things and its value.

    Christ Ahnsahnghong brought this precious truth of the Passover back to us, which was trampled down by the work of Satan in 325 AD and let us know the truth of the Passover. We should give thanks to God Elohm, Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother Jerusalem for giving us this true gift of God, eternal life.

  • [WMSCOG] How to Escape from Disasters?

    [WMSCOG] How to Escape from Disasters?

    Luke 21:35  35For it (the great disaster) will come on all those who live on the face of the whole earth. 36Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.

    The Day of Judgment for Sodom. Jesus compared the Day of Judgment to the day of the destruction of Sodom. How can we escape the disasters on that day?

    Jesus said all the disasters testified in the bible will happen to all the peoples of the world at its appointed time. There would be no exception. That is why many people try to prepare themselves with many things such as shelters, foods and all the survival materials they can think of to escape the disasters. But the bible says that there is no human solution for the disasters and whatever we prepare for ourselves will be useless.

    Amos 9:1  Not one will get away, none will escape.2Though they dig down to the depths of the grave,from there my hand will take them. Though they climb up to the heavens,from there I will bring them down.3Though they hide themselves on the top of Carmel,there I will hunt them down and seize them.Though they hide from me at the bottom of the sea,there I will command the serpentto bite them.4Though they are driven into exile by their enemies, there I will command the sword to slay them. I will fix my eyes upon them for evil and not for good.”

    There is nothing we can do in our own way to escape from the disasters.

    Zephaniah 1:18  Neither their silver nor their gold will be able to save them on the day of the LORD’s wrath. In the fire of his jealousy the whole world will be consumed,for he will make a sudden end of all who live in the earth.”

    Then what is the way through which we can escape the disasters? If we cannot solve this problem with our own plan, then we must ask God to find the way. Then what is the way we must follow?

    1Peter 1:18  For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your forefathers, 19but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect.

    God teaches us that we can receive redemption or salvation through the blood of Christ. Through the blood of Christ promised in the Passover, we can receive the redemption from all the disasters.

    Matthew 26:26 While they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take and eat; this is my body.” 27Then he took the cup, gave thanks and offered it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you. 28This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.

    Through the wine of the Passover, he allowed us to take part in the blood of the Christ so that we can escape from all the disasters. Nowadays, we can here people preparing many things to protect themselves by building space stations, submarines, underground shelters, food, money. But all the plan we have made will not work and cannot save ourselves from the disasters. Only the redeemed through the precious blood of the Christ in the Passover can have salvation.

    Let us give thanks to Elohim God, Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother Jerusalem, who gave us the truth of the Passover for our salvation.

  • [WMSCOG] Leave Your Simple Ways

    Sun-god worship introduced in Christianity. Do you know what you are worshiping?

    Proverbs 9:6  Leave your simple ways and you will live;
                              walk in the way of understanding.

    The way to life is in wisdom and understanding. But in this world people do not have wisdom and understanding. Even though they say they worship God, in reality they worship an idol. They do wrong things and do it again and again. About this Solomon said, “There is nothing new under the sun.” And also he said, “Whatever is has already been, and what will be has been before; and God will call the past to account.”

    God gave us everything in the bible to teach us as warnings and examples so that we might learn. But still people do not know and they do not have understanding. They are making the same mistakes over again. In the time of Hezekiah, people worshiped a bronze snake which was made in the time of Moses, but the bible teaches that it was called Nehushtan, which means “a piece of bronze.” They were worshiping a piece of bronze as if they made a bowl out of bronze and worshiping in front of it. In the time of Ezekiel people were worshiping cross made of wood as it was written: “Look at them putting the branch to their nose!” In those days, to worship Tammuz (sungod) they were worshiping cross (the initial of Tammuz). And God called the practice detestable.

    Are we any better now? We are also doing the same thing even inside God’s house. People are worshiping “merely a piece of bronze” and “merely a piece of tree.” If they have money they worship “merely a piece of gold” and if not, “merely a piece of silver or metal.” Can we say that we have understanding and wisdom to receive life? Only those who have wisdom can have life. How foolish it is in the eyes of God!!

    Isaiah 44:15  15It is man’s fuel for burning; some of it he takes and warms himself, he kindles a fire and bakes bread. But he also fashions a god and worships it; he makes an idol and bows down to it. 16Half of the wood he burns in the fire; over it he prepares his meal, he roasts his meat and eats his fill. He also warms himself and says, “Ah! I am warm; I see the fire.” 17From the rest he makes a god, his idol; he bows down to it and worships. He prays to it and says, “Save me; you are my god.” 18They know nothing, they understand nothing; their eyes are plastered over so they cannot see, and their minds closed so they cannot understand.

    Isn’t it foolish even in your eyes? But still people are doing the same, committing the same sin over again. Let us now leave our simple ways and make effort to find the way of life through the words of God in the bible which gives us wisdom and understanding for our salvation. Thanks to God Elohim, Father Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother Jerusalem.

  • Those Who Witnessed Miracles

    If we look at the bible, we can see many instances when God revealed his glory and great power. And many people witnessed and could be saved through the belief they have in God and many others could not see the glory of God and rejected the words of God to their own destruction. Then according to the bible what kind of people could witness the glory of God and believed?

    Miracle in Cana
    Do whatever he tells you.

     

    John 2:5  5 His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you. 6 Nearby stood six stone water jars, the kind used by the Jews for ceremonial washing, each holding from twenty to thirty gallons. 7 Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water”; so they filled them to the brim. 8 Then he told them, “Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet.” They did so, 9 and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside 10 and said, “Everyone brings out the choice wine first and then the cheaper wine after the guests have had too much to drink; but you have saved the best till now.” 11 What Jesus did here in Cana of Galilee was the first of the signs through which he revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him.

    When Jesus command them to fill the jar with water, they filled and when Jesus commanded them to take the water to the guests, they did. When they completely obeyed to the words of God, they could see the water changing into wine and they could believe in Jesus. When God told Moses to stretch out his hand over the sea, and he did and they could see the red sea divide into two and cross the sea on the dry ground. When God told Joshua and Israelites to shout toward the wall of Jericho, they could see the wall collapsing immediately. When they obeyed the words of God, they could see the miracles and the power of God, they could believe and be saved through the faith.

    God wants us to get rid of our own opinions and follow his command because he has always better plan for the one who believe and obey his words. Over and over again we can see the examples through the bible that teaches us to obey the words of God. Those who completely obey to the command of God could finally see the glory of God, the salvation of God. In the same way, we must obey the words of God for the salvation. What is the words of God given to us for our salvation.

    John 6:53  Jesus said to them, “I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him at the last day.

    How can we participate into the resurrection of the dead for eternal life at the last day? Through his flesh and blood. To have eternal life we must eat his flesh and drink his blood. And also he taught his disciples about how to eat his flesh and blood. On the night of the Passover, he said:

    Luke 22:19   And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body (or flesh) given for you; do this in remembrance of me.” In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.

    Through the Passover bread and wine we can receive his flesh and blood and we can receive the promise of eternal life. Therefore, to see the glory of God we must obey and keep the Passover. Who saw the glory of God? Those who completely obey the words of God. Then to be the one who is worthy to receive the promise of eternal life what is necessary for us? God has always better way than us. Only Those who believe and obey can be a part of the plan of God, and those who don’t will be destroyed. Jesus said, “If you love me, obey what I command.”

    The Church of God is the only church which believes and obeys the words of God in Passover. And It will be the only church which will see the glory of God, the salvation of soul. Give thanks to God Elohim who has better plans for us and now reveals to his people.

     

  • A Wise Man and His Son

    This is an old story about a dying man. A man was getting old and there came a time when he had to die. He was a rich man, but his only son who could inherit his estate was in the far-away country to study. And his house was managed by one of his servant. The old man was always worried that his servant might squander all his money or stow away for himself after his death, leaving nothing for his son.

    Finally, at his death bed, he told his servant, “I will give all my estate to you. Just make sure one thing: you must grant my son one thing whichever he might ask of you.” And the servant agreed to the old man. The servant worked harder than ever now because everything belonged to him. And he could increase the wealth of the old man abundantly. Long after the death of the old man, his only son came back home after finishing all his learning and he found out all the things belonged to his father were given to the servant and he was given only one thing from it.

    He was bewildered and did not know what to do. So he asked the servant to give him a couple of days to think about it. And in the town there was a friend of his father and he was a very wise man. The son visited him to ask him for advice. He told everything that he found out about the will of his father. The wise man said, “Your father was a wise man, so there might be some reason for that.” After thinking about it for a long time, his face brightened up and shouted.

    “Can you ask one thing from the servant and he must grant it whatever it might be, right?” “Yes,” said the son. “Then you must ask this and then your problem will be solved. Everything he has will be restored back to you.” Finally, the young man could receive all the things back from the servant and inherit his father’s estate.

    In Jewish law, whatever a servant owns actually belongs to his master; the servant has no possessions whatsoever.
