  • First Adam and Last Adam

    First Adam and Last Adam

    Christ Hidden in the Bible

    Just as Jesus said in the Book of John (John 5:39), the bible is the book that testifies about the Christ. The bible teaches about the Christ who was to come in many ways. One of the way most commonly used in the bible to teach the Christ is to use the figures of the Old Testament such as Melchizedek, Abraham, Moses, Elijah, etc..

    Christ Coming as Adam

    First Coming Christ and Adam

    One of the figures used to foreshadow the Christ is Adam. The bible teaches the first man Adam was created to signify the last Adam Christ who was to appear in the last days.

    Romans 5:14 Nevertheless, death reigned from the time of Adam to the time of Moses, even over those who did not sin by breaking a command, as did Adam, who is a pattern of the one to come.

    Paul argues that Adam was created as “a pattern” or representation of “the one to come,” that is, Christ. (Revelation 22:20) 2ooo years ago Jesus fulfilled this prophecy by coming as man (or Adam, which means earth or dust in the Hebrew language) in the flesh. Adam, therefore, means a man in the flesh. To fulfill the prophecy of Adam, Jesus Christ who was God came as man in the flesh.

    Second Coming Christ and Adam

    However, this prophecy of Adam was to be fulfilled by the Christ who is coming in the last days since the Book of Revelation concerns about what is going to happen in the last days. In this sense, Adam was given to us to let us know about the second coming Christ who was to appear in the flesh in the last days.

    We can confirm this through the creation work of God in the Book of Genesis. In the creation work of God, Adam was created on the sixth day, which was the last day of God’s creation work. The bible teaches that this Six-Day Creation actually represents the Six-Thousand-Year Salvation Work of God.

    2 Peter 3:8 But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day.

    This means that the six-day creation signifies the six-thousand-year salvation work of God. The creation of Adam on the sixth day foreshadows the coming of the Second Coming Christ who was to appear as man in the flesh at the end of the six-thousand-year salvation work.

    The Purpose of Christ’s Coming

    And the bible also teaches us about the purpose of his coming as Adam in the last days.

    1 Corinthians 15:45 So it is written: “The first man Adam became a living being”; the last Adam, a life-giving spirit.

    He is coming to give us “life” that is, eternal life. To give us salvation, he must come again as man in the flesh.

    Hebrews 9:28  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.

    When he comes, he must bring “life” to us. 2000 years ago, Jesus who came as spiritual Adam also brought life to the world through the bread of life (John 6:35), that is, his flesh and blood of the Passover. And he testified about himself that He is the life. (John 11:25) Likewise, when he comes in the last days, he is coming as “life-giving spirit,” which means he must give us life, the Passover, the bread of life.

    The Reality of Life, Eve

    Creation of Adam and Eve

    Jesus, who was Adam, gave his flesh and blood as life that the world could have eternal life. However, there is a deeper secret in this prophecy of Jesus coming as Adam. In Genesis, God created Adam with the dust of the ground and with his flesh and bone (or blood since the marrow in the bone produces blood) God created Eve, which literally means “life”. (Genesis 3:20) Through this creation work of God, God teaches us the reality of “life” of Adam (or Christ) is Eve, the last secret and creation of God.

    According to the prophecy, at the end of the six-thousand-year salvation work, God would appear as Adam and he will reveal Eve, his flesh and blood. Just as the first man Adam testified and revealed the first Eve as his flesh and blood (Genesis 2:23), the last Adam will reveal the last Eve, the reality of his flesh and blood of the Passover.

    Life Through God the Mother, the Last Eve

    And the bible testifies about the last Adam and the last Eve as the Spirit and the bride who gives life through living water to the world.

    Revelation 22:17 The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let the one who hears say, “Come!” Let the one who is thirsty come; and let the one who wishes take the free gift of the water of life.

    According to the prophecy, the Spirit is the last Adam, the Second Coming Christ. Then who is the bride, the wife of the Second Coming Christ (or the last Adam)? She is the last Eve, the Mother of all the living, who is the reality of the flesh and blood of Christ. (Genesis 3:20)

    Conclusion

    Now the time of the fulfillment of the prophecies of the bible has come. And the last Adam and Eve, the Spirit and the bride has come and calling us to come for the water of life. Those who has faith in God and the words of God in the bible must listen to the voice of God and come to the Spirit and the bride, God the Father and God the Mother. Even though they are God, they left the glory of heaven and came down to this earth in the human form. They hid their glory in the flesh and came as the last Adam and Eve to give us life.

    Let us receive them and they will give us the free gift of the water of life. Thanks to Father Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother New Jerusalem for the great love and sacrifice for us sinners.

  • Return to God

    Return to God

    Return to God

    Just as Moses said in the Book of Psalm, our life on this earth is but trouble and sorrow and it quickly pass, and we fly away to death in the end. (Psalm 90:9) Then why are we living the life of hardships and troubles on this earth?

    The Parable of Garden of Eden

    God teaches us the reason through the parable of the Garden of Eden. In the Garden of Eden lived Adam and Eve. Their life was prosperous, and everything was provided to them, even eternal life by eating from the tree of life. However, one day, eating from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, they were driven out of the Garden of Eden. Since they disobeyed the words of God and ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, they were cast out from the paradise to the cursed land which produced thorns and thistles instead of the tree of life.

    This story of the Garden of Eden is a parable given to us to teach us about our origin and our life on this earth. We were once in the Garden of Eden (the Heavenly Kingdom) with God and other angels, but due to our disobedience we were sent down to this earth, the land of sufferings. We broke the heavenly law, and practiced lawlessness or committed sins. And because of the lawlessness and sins, we were separated from God. Because we were sent away from God and His blessings, we are in the agony of death on this earth.

    Separation From God Due to our Sins

    Isaiah 59:1 Surely the arm of the Lord is not too short to save, nor his ear too dull to hear. 2 But your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear.

    Then how can we restore to the Garden of Eden our Home and live in joy and happiness with God again? Is there any way we can go back to the paradise again? The bible teaches we can go back to the Garden of Eden and eat from the tree of life again. To return to God, the very first thing that we need is to receive the forgiveness for our sins we committed in heaven. Since we were sent out due to our sins, it is natural that we should receive the forgiveness of our sins to go back to God and heaven.

    The Forgiveness of Sins Through the Passover

    Then how can we receive the forgiveness of sins to return to God? 2000 years ago, Jesus Christ taught us the way to receive the forgiveness of sins and return to God. On the night of the Passover, Jesus took bread and wine, which represents his flesh and blood, and gave to the disciples, teaching them that they could receive the forgiveness of sins through the Passover.

    Matthew 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.

    Returning To God through the Passover

    By giving us the new covenant, Jesus opened the way to the Garden of Eden again that we may return to God. When we keep the new covenant Passover, we can return to God and be with God, receiving all the blessings we received from God in heaven again.

    John 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. 55 For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink. 56 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in them.

    Hezekiah’s Passover

    Once we got separated from God because of our sins, but now we can be with God by keeping the Passover. Therefore, we can be sure that we can go back to God by keeping the Passover. We can confirm this this the bible. In the time of King Hezekiah, the king realized the importance of the Passover and sent his message all over the land, inviting them to keep the Passover. And this was his message to the people.

    2 Chronicles 30:6 At the king’s command, couriers went throughout Israel and Judah with letters from the king and from his officials, which read: “People of Israel, return to the Lord, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel, that he may return to you who are left, who have escaped from the hand of the kings of Assyria. 7 Do not be like your parents and your fellow Israelites, who were unfaithful to the Lord, the God of their ancestors, so that he made them an object of horror, as you see. 8 Do not be stiff-necked, as your ancestors were; submit to the Lord. Come to his sanctuary, which he has consecrated forever. Serve the Lord your God, so that his fierce anger will turn away from you. 9 If you return to the Lord, then your fellow Israelites and your children will be shown compassion by their captors and will return to this land, for the Lord your God is gracious and compassionate. He will not turn his face from you if you return to him.”

    Again and again he earnestly entreated the people of Israel to return to God by keeping the Passover. This message clearly teaches us that the Passover is the way to return to God and receive His blessing.

    The Results of Obedience and Disobedience

    Then what will happen if we do not keep the Passover and return to God? In the story above, despite the message from the king, many people did not listen to him. In those days, the nation of Israel was divided in two kingdoms: southern Judah and northern Israel. The people of Judah obeyed to the message of the king and kept the Passover, but the people of Israel not. Later the two nations had to face completely different consequences due to their action.

    The kingdom of Israel got destroyed by the Assyrian army, but the kingdom of Judah was saved out from the war against Assyria. And God teaches the reason for those results.

    2 Kings 18:12 This happened because they had not obeyed the Lord their God, but had violated his covenant—all that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded. They neither listened to the commands nor carried them out.

    God teaches that the nation of Israel was conquered by the army because they did not obey the command of God and keep the Passover. On the contrary, the land of Judah was protected from the disasters because they obeyed the command of God.

    Conclusion

    This lesson was given to us as examples. We are living on this earth, going through many sufferings and in the end to death. It is all because of our sins we committed against God in heaven by disobeying his commands. Now God came down to this earth and opened the way to the heaven again by giving the forgiveness of our sins through His own flesh and blood.

    We should not be like the people of Israel who ridiculed and scorned the message of God to their own destruction. Rather, we should obey the words of God and keep the Passover like the people of Judah.

    Christ Ahnsahnghong and God the Mother came down to this earth and opened the way to return to God by restoring the new covenant Passover which Jesus established 2000 years ago. And they are inviting us to return to them and to receive the water of life by keeping the Passover. Now we should not practice lawlessness again and disobey the words of God. We must return to the Spirit and the bride with a mind of humility and keep the Passover. And then they will forgive our sins and take us back to the eternal Garden of Eden.

  • Christ Ahnsahnghong Coming as Elijah

    Christ Ahnsahnghong Coming as Elijah

    Elijah Ahnsahnghong

    In the previous article, we have seen the relation between John the Baptist and Jesus Christ. John the Baptist came as Elijah to prepare the way for the Lord and he testified Jesus as Lord God who would come for the forgiveness of sins and salvation.

    However, even though the prophecies of Elijah were partially accomplished by the coming of John the Baptist, the complete fulfillment of the prophecies did not happen at that time. If we look at the prophecies closely, the true fulfillment of the prophecies was reserved for the last day.

    The Time of Appearance of Elijah

    In the Book of Malachi, we can see the prophecies of Elijah’s coming to prepare the way for the Lord and to turn the hearts of people to God. But it also testifies about the time frame when the prophecies are to be fulfilled.

    Malachi 4:1 “Surely the day is coming; it will burn like a furnace. All the arrogant and every evildoer will be stubble, and the day that is coming will set them on fire,” says the Lord Almighty.

    Malachi 4:3 “See, I will send the prophet Elijah to you before that great and dreadful day of the Lord comes. 6 He will turn the hearts of the parents to their children, and the hearts of the children to their parents; or else I will come and strike the land with total destruction.

    According to the prophecies above, the period is just before the total destruction with fire on the great and dreadful day of the Lord. Before everything is to be destroyed with fire, God is going to send Prophet Elijah to turn the hearts of people to God so that they could return to God for salvation. This shows that Elijah would come just before the total destruction with fire, that is, just before the Day of Judgment to save the children of God.

    Elijah Ahnsahnghong

    Who is Elijah?

    Also, through the name Elijah, we can see that John the Baptist did not fulfill the prophecies completely. The name Elijah is a combination of “Eli” and “Jah”, which respectively means “God” and “Jehovah”. This means the true fulfillment of the prophecies must be accomplished by God Jehovah himself. He must appear as Prophet Elijah just before the Day of Judgment and He will fulfill the missions of Elijah: preparing the way for the Lord and turning the hearts of people to God.

    This explanation is a little bit strange. God is coming to prepare the way of God? Does it mean there are two Gods, the one who comes before to prepare the way and the other who comes after as Lord to give salvation? This seems to be odd in the perspective of most Christians who believe there are only one God in heaven, God the Father.

    Two Images of God: Male and Female

    This is a very serious question we have to ask to understand the meaning of the prophecies. Is there only one God or more than one? Actually the bible says there are two images of God: God the Father and God the Mother. In the original Hebrew version of the Old Testament God is referred to as Elohim for 2500 times in the bible. “Elohim” is the plural form of God in Hebrew, which means “Gods”, rather than God. In short, God is Gods, Father and Mother, not just one God the Father.

    Briefly we can see this through God’s creation of man in Genesis. According to Genesis, when God created man, God used himself as model for man. Even though God is invisible and we cannot know the image of God, since man was given the image of God, we can understand the image of God through man who was created after the image of God.

    Genesis 1:26 Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, ….  So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.

    There is something strange in the verse above. Rather than using a singular form such as “me” or “my”, God is referring to himself through the plural form, “us” and “our”. But then why? We can find the answer through man who God created with his own image. Man has two images, male and female, or Adam and Eve. Through the creation of man, we can conclude that God has two images too, male and female, that is, God the Father and God the Mother.

    Elijah Ahnsahnghong

    God the Father and God the Mother

    Now we can understand the mystery of Elijah (who is God) coming as messenger to prepare the way for God. The prophecy is about God the Father (Elijah or God Jehovah) who is coming to prepare the way of God the Mother in the last day to save God’s people.

    Actually, this was already foreshadowed in the creation of Adam and Eve. As we know Adam represents God the Father (Rom 5:14). Then who does Eve the wife of Adam represent? God the Mother. The creation of Adam and Eve on the sixth day has some hidden prophetical meaning in it. In the prophetical term, one day is equivalent to one thousand years. (2Pe 3:8) Therefore, the six-day creation actually represents the six-thousand years of God’s salvation work.

    According to the plan of God, on the last day, that is, the sixth day, Adam and Eve would appear to lead the animals. The prophetical meaning of this is that at the end of the six thousand year’s salvation work the prophetical Adam and Eve would appear to lead the Gentiles to salvation who are represented as animals. (1Co 15:45)

    Elijah Ahnsahnghong and God the Mother

    All these prophecies got fulfilled by Christ Ahnsahnghong. Christ Ahnsahnghong came as Elijah and testified about the one who was to come after him, God the Mother. Just as Adam who represents Christ or God the Father testified about Eve (God the Mother) by calling her “the mother of all the living”, (Gen 3:20) Father Ahnsahnghong revealed Heavenly Mother New Jerusalem through the heavenly wedding banquet as the one who gives eternal life.

    Wedding Banquet and God the Mother: Elijah Ahnsahnghong revealed God the Mother through the heavenly wedding banquet.

    This all happened to fulfill the prophecies of the revelation. It says:

    Revealtion 22:17 The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let the one who hears say, “Come!” Let the one who is thirsty come; and let the one who wishes take the free gift of the water of life.

    This prophecy says that the water of life or “eternal life” would be given by the Spirit (God the Father) and the Bride (God the Mother). By the fulfillment of all the prophecies of the Bible we can say Christ Ahnsahnghong is the Elijah who was to come and God the Mother is the Lord we have to receive for salvation.

  • Adam And Eve: Who Is The True Life Source?

    Adam And Eve: Who Is The True Life Source?

    Something You Cannot Do and Something You Don’t Do

    In this article I would like to show that we can receive eternal life through God the Mother. People sometimes argue about many things in their relationship with others. However, most of the topic for the arguments are for things that they are not doing even though they can do them if they try. On the other hand, people seldom or even never argue about something that they cannot do.

    For example, a person can rebuke the other for not trying hard enough to learn to swim. However no one will blame the other for not swimming and living under water like a fish. It is because living like a fish under water is simply impossible for man. For the same reason, a person will not scold another for not flying like a bird even though the same person might admonish another for not learn to fly a plane.

    Man and Woman

    It is the same with a man and woman. A husband and wife might argue for many things such as for not doing house chores, or not spending much time with family, etc. However, a wife will not blame her husband for not having a child or being incapable of being pregnant. It is because having a child is simply an impossible thing for man to do.

    When God created Adam and Eve, God created Eve as helper for Adam. Then what kind of help could Eve give to Adam? For something Adam don’t do even though he can do. No at all. Eve was created for something that Adam CANNOT do even though he might want to do. That was simply impossible for Adam to do. What Adam was incapable of was “child-birth.” And for this purpose God created Eve who could give life to children.

    Eternal Life Through God the Mother

    The bible says that Adam and Eve was created to teach the invisible image of God so that we may know God to receive salvation. According to the bible God created man according to the invisible image of God. (Gen 1:26-27) In other words, Adam was created to show God the Father. (Rom 5:14) Then what was Eve created for?

    The only life-giver Eve (or the Mother of all the living) was created to represent God the Mother. According to the will of God, it was only through Eve that the life for children can be given. In the same way, through this Eve in creation, God wanted to teach us the spiritual Eve who would give life to the children of God.

    God the Mother in the Last Day

    The Bible teaches that God the Mother would appear in the last day to give us the spiritual life. God the Father could have eagerly given us eternal life if he could. However, the life-giving through only Father was simply impossible in the will of God. That is why Jesus God the Father said that he would grant life at the last day. (John 6:39, 40, 44, 54)

    In the last day, we should know God the Mother. We can receive the water of eternal life through God the Mother only. (Revelation 22:17)

  • God The Mother: In The Creation Of Adam And Eve

    God The Mother: In The Creation Of Adam And Eve

    During the six day creation of God in Genesis, the last thing that was created man. And the bible says that the creation of man was given to us to teach us about the invisible image of God. If we look at man in the book of Genesis, God created man into two different images: male and female, both of which were fashioned after the very image of God. Through the first man Adam and first woman Eve, God is teaching us the spiritual Adam and Eve. Then who are the spiritual Adam and Eve? And why do they need to be created?

    The Spiritual Adam

    Genesis 1:27  So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.

    When God created man, God put his invisible image into the creation of man. According to the creation work of God, both male and female were made to represent the image of God. The first man Adam was created according to the male image of God, who we call “God the Father.” Then who was Eve created to represent? It must be the female image of God, that is, God the Mother.

    Adam and Eve
    Creation of Adam: Instead of saying, “Let there be a man”, God said, “Let us make man in our image and in our likeness”. Among all the creations, why did God give man the image of God? What does God want ot teach us through the creation of man?

    Let us confirm this through the bible. First, let us look at the purpose of God in the creation of Adam. Nothing was created without any purpose or the will of God. Then what was the will of God in the creation of Adam?

    Romans 5:14  Nevertheless, death reigned from the time of Adam to the time of Moses, even over those who did not sin by breaking a command, as did Adam, who is a pattern of the one to come.

    According to the bible, Adam was created as the pattern of the one who is to come so that we can understand “the one to come” through the story of Adam. Then who is “the one to come” in the bible? It is the Christ Jesus. 2000 years ago the prophecies of the bible about “the one to come” was fulfilled by Jesus Christ and in the same way the prophecies of “the one to come” in the last days would be fulfilled by the Second Coming Jesus.

    Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was offered as a sacrifice one time to take away the sins of many people. And he will come a second time, but not to offer himself for sin. He will come the second time to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him. (ERV)

    About this Christ who was to come for the second time, the Revelation says:

    Revelation 22:20  He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. 21 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with God’s people. Amen.

    Again and again the bible says the one to come in the last days is Jesus Christ. But when Jesus comes, how can we know who the true Jesus is who we have been waiting for? To teach us how to recognize the true Christ, the bible says he will come to follow the pattern of Adam. In other words, he is coming as spiritual Adam.

    Since Jesus was God the Father himself, we can conclude that God created Adam to teach us his coming as man in the flesh, which was fulfilled partly by Jesus 2000 yeas ago and would be fulfilled completely in the last days by his coming as Adam when he comes for the second time. In short, Adam represents God the Father coming as man.

    The Spiritual Eve

    If Adam represents God the Father, then who does Eve represents? As we have already seen, Eve was created to let us know the another image of God, God the Mother. Through the creation of Eve, God wanted to teach us the God the Mother who would come as woman in the flesh in the last days. 2ooo years ago when God the Father appeared as spiritual Adam in the name of Jesus, he did not bring his wife, the spiritual Eve. She was kept hidden until the last days.

    Adam and Eve
    Who is Eve, who was created with Adam’s flesh and blood?

    According to the prophecies of the bible, Spiritual Eve must appear in the last days along with Spiritual Adam, the Second Coming Christ to complete the salvation work. Then why should Eve appear in the last days. To understand the work of the spiritual Eve, first we must look at the physical Eve who was also given as pattern for the spiritual Eve. Then what was the purpose of God in the creation of Eve.

    According to the bible Eve was created as helper: “But for Adam no suitable helper was found” (Genesis 1:20) It means she was created to help Adam. Adam was not complete by himself and God created Eve to make up for the lack in Adam. Even though Adam could do everything by himself, there was one thing that he could not do alone: Giving life to the children. Therefore, to help Adam to procreate or to give birth to offspring.

    Genesis 3:20  Adam named his wife Eve (or Life), because she would become the mother of all the living.

    The name Eve means “life” or “living” in the Hebrew words and she was created to give life to the children. Through this physical Eve, God is teaching us that it is only through the spiritual Eve (God the Mother) the spiritual life can be given to the children. And to give us the eternal life God the Mother must appear along with God the Father in the last days.

    The Eternal Life

    Just as Adam was the first man who gave life to the children, the bible says Jesus is coming as Adam to give the spiritual life to the spiritual children.

    1 Corinthians 15:45  So it is written: “The first man Adam became a living being”; the last Adam, a life-giving spirit.

    The purpose of the appearance of the last Adam or Jesus Christ is to give life to the children. For this purpose Christ must come again as Adam or man in the flesh for the second time in the last days, but when he appears to give us life, he must come along with the spiritual Eve, God the Mother because it was not the will of God to give life to the children only through Adam. But more importantly God created Eve and gave the role of child-birth so that she would give life as mother.

    In this story of Adam and Eve, God already foretold the work of Christ who is coming as Adam and Eve to give us eternal life. To give us eternal life or salvation, the Second Coming Christ (the Last Adam) must reveal God the Mother (the Last Eve) who is coming to give us “eternal life,” just as Adam revealed Eve by testifying about her as it is written:

    Genesis 3:20  Adam named his wife Eve (or Life), because she would become the mother of all the living.

    Adam gave the name and role for Eve and this work of Adam was a prophecy to let us know the work of the spiritual Adam. This prophecy was fulfilled by the Second Coming Christ Ahnsahnghong revealing God the Mother as the last Eve who appeared to give us the eternal life.

    Conclusion

    The last hidden mystery of the bible, the Last Eve coming as mother of all the living was finally fulfilled in our time. Now we must recognize God the Mother who came as woman in the flesh and accept her and the living water coming from her to receive eternal life. Come to the World Mission Society Church of God established by God the Father and God the Mother in these last days.

  • God The Mother: In The Creation Of Man

    God The Mother: In The Creation Of Man

    As I said before, God the Mother is testified in the creation of mankind too. Everything created on this earth was given to us to teach us the invisible qualities of God. We cannot see God and know God spiritually because God is invisible and imperceivable by human being who is physical.The bible says we cannot perceive the spiritual things with our physical senses.

    1 Corinthians 2:13 This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual realities with Spirit-taught words.] 14 The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness,and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit.

    Spiritual things can be compared and understood only by spiritual things. That is why people who have only physical understanding through the physical senses thinks the words of God to be foolished because they are spiritually discerned.

    Spiritual Things Manifested in Creation of Man

    Then how can people who belongs to the physical realm grasp the spiritual world and things? The bible says all the created things were given to us so that we can understand the spiritual things in heaven.

    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.

    Created things on earth was given to us so that we can understand the invisible and spiritual things in heaven. Especially, among many created things mankind has a special meaning in creation. Mankind was created to teach us directly the invisible and divine nature of God. By studying the creation of man God intended to let us know about himself clearly. For this reason, if we want to know God, we must look at the creation of man. Now, let us find out the hidden and invisible nature of God through the creation of man.

    Man, a Copied Image of God

    Let us simply think about the copy manchine and how it works? For example, if a teacher made copies of his math test and by mistake he dropped a copy in a hallway. A student who passed by picked up the copy and looked at the content. What would he do? Will he say, “Oh, this is just a copy so it is not real,” and will he throw the copy away? Probably not. He would take that copy joyfully and feel happy for the luck. Why? Because a copy contains exactly the same as the original in everything such as passages, test questions, pictures and illustrations, graphs, etc.

    Man, who was created according to the image of God , has two different images: Male and Female. Then how many images of God can we expect to see?

    Man is working in that way. Even though we cannot see the original image of God, the bible says that mankind was given as copy to show the original and invisible image of God. Therefore, by looking at the creation of mankind actually we can see the original image of God. Let us find out if it is correct.

    Genesis 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,[a] and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”

    Can we see God or perceive God? Then can we say why one God use the referent “us” and “our” to signify himself? Here confusion rises and people says, “Oh, this must be a misinterpretation.” However, before making a hasty judgement, we must think carefully about everything relevant to this. The very first thing we have to think about is if our idea of the singleness of God’s existence is true or not. What if God is plural and our belief that God is one is wrong? Who can surely say God is only one? Think about your neigbor who just moved in. You can see only a man in the house and no wife or children. Because of that can you surely say that he is single? Even on this physical thing about us, we cannot be sure. How then can we say we can be sure of spiritual and invisible things in heaven?

    Why does God again and again refer himself in a plural form? Even why does he say Elohim or Gods for 2500 times in the Old Testament to mention about himself? We do not know the reason. But luckily God gave something we can know to reveal his identity: Mankind. He used man as the copy of his image so that we can know the invisible image of God through the visible image of mankind.

    God as Male and Female

    To find out the image of God, let us look at the image of man which was created in accordance with the image of God.

    Genesis 1:27 So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.

    Mankind was created into two different images, that is, male and female. Through this copied image of man, we can easily guess the original image of God, right? Then what is the image of God reflected in the creation of man? They should be the same as the image of man. Therefore, we can conclude that the original image of God must be also male and female. After examining all these things, is there still a man who can say this is wrong? If he insists like that, it is as much as saying that he does not believe in the bible.

    According to the creation of man, God must exist as male and female just as man has two different images, male and female. And as Christians we already know the male image of God who gave his image to the first male Adam and we tend to call him “God the Father.” Then what should we call the female imagle of God whose existence can be understood in the creation of Eve? Should we not calle Her “God the Mother”?

    Conclusion

    I was intended to present evidences about God the Mother through the last several posts. And now the evidences are building up so that we cannot make any excuse about the existence of God the Mother. Quite often it is his own ideas about God which hinder us from understanding the truth of God. 2000 years ago Jews had one stereotyped idea that God cannot come as man in the flesh and because of their adherence to this notion they could not accept Jesus who came as Savior.

    It seems like people today have one such stereotype that God cannot be female. But just as Jesus was God who came as man whether they believed it or not, God can exist as female and we must call her God the Mother and accept her as our Savior.

  • [WMSCOG] Adam’s Flesh And Blood

    [WMSCOG] Adam’s Flesh And Blood

    Adam’s Flesh and Blood

    According to the bible Adam represents Christ, but then who does Eve represent? Let us find out the answer for this question through the teachings of Christ. 2000 years ago, Jesus said, “Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life,” and gave the new covenant of the Passover through which we would be able to receive the flesh and blood of Christ and eternal life. But there is something more in this teaching of Christ.

    Jesus Teaches in Parables

    Matthew 13:34   Jesus spoke all these things to the crowd in parables; he did not say anything to them without using a parable.

    A parable is a figurative language which contains hidden secrets in it. It means all the teachings of Jesus was given in the parabolic term and those teachings contain some hidden meaning in it. Then we can easily assume that there must be also some secret meaning behind this teaching of Jesus about his flesh and blood. To understand the secret hidden in the Passover, we must understand the story of Adam.

    Hidden Secret in the Flesh and Blood of Christ

    Jesus and Adam

    Romans 5:14   14 Nevertheless, death reigned from the time of Adam to the time of Moses, even over those who did not sin by breaking a command, as did Adam, who is a pattern of the one to come.

    Adam was given to us as pattern to teach us about “the one who was to come.” Then who is “the one to come”? According to the prophecies of the bible, ‘the one to come’ is Christ who was to come or appear two times. It means Adam was actually given to us as type to show the Christ who was to come in the future. Therefore, by looking at Adam in the Old Testament we can actually know who the Christ would be who was to come as spiritual Adam.

    Jesus’ Flesh and Blood Hidden in the Story of Adam

    Eve the Flesh and Blood of Adam

    Therefore, to know the meaning of Jesus’ flesh and blood we must first look at Adam. Adam represents Christ so Adam’s flesh and blood means Christ’s flesh and blood. Through Adam’s flesh and blood, we can come to know the reality of Christ’s flesh and blood. Then what is Adam’s flesh and blood? Let us take a look at the story of Adam?

    When God created Eve, he used Adam’s bone and flesh. Actually, “bone” represents blood because the blood is produced from the marrow inside the bones. After creating Eve with Adam’s flesh and bone (or blood), Adam testified like this:

    Genesis 2:23   23 The man said, “This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called ‘woman,’ for she was taken out of man.”

    When Eve was brought to Adam, Adam testified to Eve as his flesh and blood.

    The Reality of the Flesh and Blood of the Christ

    So through this story of Adam we can see the reality of Christ’s flesh and blood which gives eternal life to those who eat them. Just as Jesus represents Adam, Christ’s flesh and blood represents Eve, Adam’s wife who was created with Adam’s flesh and blood.

    Through the story of Adam actually God was teaching us the wife of the spiritual Adam the Christ who can give us the eternal life. Then when is the time for Eve to appear? Let us study the story of Adam a little bit more.

    Eve Represents God the Mother the Spiritual Last Eve

    Creation of Eve

    When God created Eve, first he put Adam into a deep sleep and took his flesh and blood to create Eve.

    Genesis 2:21   21 So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs and then closed up the place with flesh. 22 Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man.

    Before the creation of Eve, first Adam must be put into a deep sleep and then Eve could be revealed. In the same way, for the wife of Christ, the spiritual Adam to be revealed, first Christ must be put into a deep sleep. And the side of Christ must be opened to break the rib bone and flesh so that the spiritual Eve could be created. What does it mean that Christ must be put into a deep sleep?

    John 11:11   11 After he had said this, he went on to tell them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep; but I am going there to wake him up.” 12 His disciples replied, “Lord, if he sleeps, he will get better.” 13 Jesus had been speaking of his death, but his disciples thought he meant natural sleep. 14 So then he told them plainly, “Lazarus is dead.”

    To talk about the death of Lazarus, at first Jesus used a figurative language, ‘sleeping’ and then later explained to the disciples in a plain language without using a parable that he is dead. So spiritually sleeping means ‘death.’

    The Appearance of the Spiritual Eve, the Bride of Christ

    For the creation of Eve, Adam must be put into a deep sleep and this means that for the wife of Christ to be revealed Christ must be first put to death and his side must be broken open. 2000 years ago we can clearly see how Jesus fulfilled this prophecy of Adam when he came for the first time.

    John 19:33 But when they came to Jesus and found that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. Instead, one of the soldiers pierced Jesus’ side with a spear, bringing a sudden flow of blood and water.

    The spiritual Adam, Jesus was figuratively put into a deep sleep and while he was sleeping his side was broken open and his rib bone was broken producing blood. Through his death on the cross he fulfilled the prophecy of Adam to reveal Eve, his true flesh and blood.

    The Appearance of the Last Adam and Last Eve

    Eve Means “Life”

    Then why should Eve be revealed? Because she is the one who was created to give “Life” to people. The name, Eve means “LIFE,” and even from the beginning God planned the life through Eve.

    Genesis 3:20   Adam named his wife Eve, because she would become the mother of all the living.

    In the meaning of Eve in the Hebrew word is “Living or Life.” Even from the beginning God created Eve to give life. Without Eve, the Mother of all the Living, there can never be any life for the living in the spiritual sense. This was also prophecy about the Christ’s wife who would be revealed as the source of life. Through the sacrifice of Christ God fulfilled the prophecy of Adam and his death so that Eve, Adam’s flesh and blood could be created.

    The Time of the Appearance of Eve

    Then when would Eve appear? Since she is Adam’s wife, she would appear along with her husband Adam, that is, the Second Coming Christ who was to appear in the last days. And in the book of Revelation, the bible says that Christ, the Last Adam will appear with his wife, the Last Eve in the last days.

    Revelation 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.

    When the Lamb is coming for the second time in the last days, he is coming along with his wife, the last Eve.

    The Purpose of the Appearance of the Last Eve

    Then what is the purpose of Eve’s coming? To give life as the mother of all the living. 2000 years ago Jesus gave his flesh and blood through the Passover bread and wine until the reality of the flesh and blood of Christ be revealed in the last days. By revealing Eve in the last days, God is teaching that the reality of Christ’s flesh and blood that gives eternal life is actually the wife of Christ, the Last Eve, the Mother of all the living.

    Who is the Last Eve, the Bride of Christ?

    If we look at Revelation 21:9, the bible teaches us the bride and wife of Christ is the Heavenly Jerusalem coming down from heaven. And Paul teaches the reality of the Heavenly Jerusalem and says, “But the Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our Mother.” The heavenly Jerusalem is our Mother or the Mother of the living. Here “Our” means God’s people who will receive eternal life and they must have spiritual Mother who can grant them eternal life.

    This prophecy was already fulfilled by Christ Ahnsahnghong who came as the Last Adam and Our Mother Heavenly Jerusalem who came as the bride of the Lamb, the Last Eve. Christ Ahnsahnghong taught us that Mother is the one who can give us eternal life and we must listen to Mother for the life. Thanks to heavenly Father and Mother for their great love and sacrifice!!

  • Elohim, The Mystery Of God

    Elohim, The Mystery Of God

    What is the mystery of God in the bible? It is the Christ because our salvation depends on the Christ who was to appear on this earth. The reason he is considered a mystery is because no one can recognize the Christ in the worldly point of view. The biggest mystery among all the mysteries of the bible is God Elohim who would appear in the last days to give us eternal life.

    The Old Testament of the bible is recorded originally in the Hebraic language and in the Hebrew language one of the words used to refer to God is “Elohim,” which was used 2,500 times throughout the Old Testament. This referent, Elohim is the most common word used to mean God. If we just look at the Genesis 1, we can see how many times the word “Elohim” is used to mean God. Listen to this Hebrew reading of Genesis 1.

    Then what is so mysterious about a name of God? It is because contrary to the public opinion Elohim is not God in the singular form, but Gods in plural form. It means when God was creating the world and everything in it, God was not working by himself, but there was another entity who was working together with God the Father. Let us confirm this through the reading of Genesis 1:26 and 27.

    Why is Elohim (God) using “us” and “our” to represent God? If God is singular and Father alone, then he should say, “Let me make man in my image and in my likeness.” Why is God referring himself as “us” and “our” in the plural form? The secret is in the word Elohim. In the Hebrew word, the singular form of God is “El” or “Elo(a)h,” which means God in the singular form and the plural form of God is “Elim” or “Elohim,” which means Gods literally.

    You might say, “Does it make any difference if it is singular or plural?” The answer is “It does make all the difference.” To have knowledge of God is the basic condition of salvation. Even though there are many gods and many lords in the world, the true Savior and true God is one. And that one God is call himself as “us” and “our.” In the bible nothing is meaningless, and everything has meaning. Even a singular or plural form has meaning in it. For example, let us take a look at Paul’s words:

    Gal 3:16  16 The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. Scripture does not say “and to seeds,” meaning many people, but “and to your seed,” meaning one person, who is Christ.

    Even though Abraham had two sons or seeds, Ishmael and Isaac, the one who received the promise of God was one son or seed, Isaac, who represents Christ. The singular and plural form is essential to understand the meaning of Abraham’s seed, who would become his heir. All these were working as prophecies to teach us God’s heir. If we don’t not care if it is singular or plural, we completely misunderstand the salvation work of God. It is the same with Elohim. To understand if God is one or two, or singular or plural is essential for the salvation. If someone firmly believes God is one (even though God is two), he would not be able to accept God when he appears as two forms, and if someone believes that God is two (even though he is one), he would have to wait meaninglessly to the end without receiving salvation.

    Then is God one or two? The answer is in man who was given God’s image. Man was created to reveal the image of God, and the man was created into two images, male and female, or Adam and Eve. And the creation of man shows us the invisible image of God as male and female, Father and Mother. According to the Romans 5 Adam was created to teach us the male image of Christ or God the Father coming as man in the flesh.

    Both Adam and Eve were created in the invisible image of God. Since they are the copy of the image of God, through them we can conclude that God has two images too, that is, male and female, or God the Father and God the Mother.

    Romans 5:14   Nevertheless, death reigned from the time of Adam to the time of Moses, even over those who did not sin by breaking a command, as did Adam, who was a pattern of the one to come.

    Adam was created to teach us about the Christ, first coming and second, who represent male image of Elohim, Gods. Then who does Eve represent, who was given the female image of Elohim? She was created to show Adam’s wife or female image of Christ. In short, Adam is Christ in the male image and Eve is Christ in the female image who would come and appear in the last days: the Spirit and the Bride in the book of Revelation 22:17. The Spirit is the Christ who is coming as Adam for the second time and his bride is Elohim Mother who would appear as Adam’s bride or his wife.

    Many says that the bride is the saints. But Father Ahnsahnghong clearly taught in one of his sermon explaining the Revelation 21 and 22 that the bride in the book is not plural, but singular. If the bride is saints, it should be recorded as brides in the plural form, not bride in its singular form, which means the bride is NOT saints. Just as many tried to deceive people from recognizing God the Father who came down to this earth in the flesh, and in the same way there are many who try to deceive people from know God the Mother the Last Eve who would appear in the last days to give us the water of life. To understand the deepest mystery in the bible, we must depend on the words of God in the bible, not on the teachings coming from man’s opinion.

    The bible truly testifies that the Spirit and the Bride would appear to give us salvation. They are God Elohim, Father and Mother working together even from the beginning in the book of Genesis to the very end until all God’s people receive the salvation and eternal life in Heaven!!

  • God Elohim the Heavenly Mother

    God Elohim the Heavenly Mother

    Elohim
    “The word Elohim is the plural of El (or possibly Eloah) and is the first name of God given in the Old Testament: “In the beginning, God (Elohim) created the heavens and the earth, (Gen. 1:1).

    From Theopedia

    This is the definition of Elohim. Originally the Old Testament was written in the Hebrew language. In the Hebraic language, El or Eloah means God in singular form and Elohim means Gods in plural form. This is very important in understanding the bible. All throughout the Old Testament, God is referred to as Elohim (Gods), not as El or Eloah (God). This word Elohim is used about 2500 times to represent God. Even from the creation of the world to the end, God is not used in the singular form, but in the plural form. It means even from the beginning Gods are working together.
    How could it be possible? We used to believe there is only one God, then why does God represent himself as Elohim (Gods), not El (God)? Many got confused and gave many different explanations which are not true or based on the understanding in the bible. People made their own personal or communal interpretation for their own congregation. Now let us get rid of our own thought and read the bible through the bible and understand the reason why God is represented as Elohim (Gods) in the bible.
    Even though God is invisible and spiritual, God made his divinity known to man who can perceive only the physical things. Since man cannot see the invisible world, God let man know the invisible world through the visible world which they can understand. Therefore, the bible says this physical world is a copy and shadow created to teach us the spiritual world which is the original and reality. Especially in this physical world, God created one thing to teach us the images of Gods (Elohim). By looking at one creation on this earth, we can understand more about Elohim.
    Genesis 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,[a] and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”
    God is creating man and in the original Hebrew language the word Elohim (Gods) is used instead of God. That is why Gods used “us” and “our” the plural form to represent them, rather than “me” or “my” the singular form. God didn’t say, “Let me make man in my image” because Gods are working together to create man. Then how many Gods are working together? Who are they? God is in heaven in the spiritual and invisible world which we as physical being cannot perceive. But just as God revealed his own divinity through the creation on this physical world so that men are without excuse. Then what was created as copy and shadow of God so that we can know the image or images of Gods. He said, “let us make man in our image and in our likeness.”
    Man was given the copied images of God and by looking at the creation of man we can know the images of Gods too. Then how many images were given to man?
    Genesis 1:27  So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them;male and female he created them.
    God Elohim the Heavenly Mother
    Man was created in the image of God as male and female. Through this we can know God also exists as male and female. Male image of God is called Father. Then what should call this female image of God who created Eve according to her image?
    They say that this is the ideal image of man and woman and they were created in a science lab. Anyway God created man as male and female to reveal God’s own image. This is the image of man which was created according to the image of God. Then how many images of God can you guess by looking at these images of man? Just as there is a male image of man, there should be a male image of God, whom we call God the Father. In the same way, through the female after the creation of man, we can conclude that there is a female image of God. Then what should we call her? God the Mother.
    God is always working together even from the creation to the end. The same Elohim (Gods) who created man in the book of Genesis are coming together in the last days to complete the creation and give eternal life.
    Revelation 22:17  17 The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let the one who hears say, “Come!” Let the one who is thirsty come; and let the one who wishes take the free gift of the water of life.
    The Spirit, God the Father and his bride, God the Mother would come together to give the water of life or eternal life. God Elohim, Father Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother Jerusalem came down to this earth to give us eternal life. The bible says the mystery of God, Christ will be revealed at the last days. The mystery hidden since the creation of the world is Christ, Elohim coming as male and female in the flesh. Let us receive eternal life by accepting Father Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother. Give glory to God Elohim.
