    The Spirit and the Bride

    Whom Does the Bible Testify About?

    The bible is the book testifying about the Savior who was to come to give us salvation.

    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, yet you refuse to come to me to have life.

    “Christ” in Greek or “Messiah” in Hebrew means “the Anointed One”, which means God would come as man and be anointed to fulfill the prophecies of the bible as king, prophet, and high priest. 2000 years ago, Jesus Christ came as the Anointed One, but people rejected him and at the end crucified him on the cross. Only those who believed the words and prophecies of God in the bible could accept him and receive salvation.

    The same bible testifies that Christ would come as man for the second time (Heb 9:28), and get anointed again to complete the prophecies of the bible. When it happens, it would be a great test to people today. Many who look at the appearances of the Christ would reject him. Only those who believes in the words of God in the bible would receive him as fulfillment of the prophecies of the bible and receive salvation.

    Many says that the bride in the heavenly wedding in Revelation is the church. Today let us get rid of our prejudice and find out the identity of the heavenly New Jerusalem, the bride and wife of the Lamb.

    The Spirit and Bride Giving the Water of Life

    The Water of Life

    According to the bible, the salvation of God is expressed through many different metaphors. Sometimes it is compared to bread that gives life (Jn 6:35), or to water (Jn 4:13), or even to seeds (Mt 13:37). Especially powerful is the metaphor of water that gives life. It is used all throughout the bible as the main motif of God’s salvation. Prophet Isaiah says:

    Isaiah 55:1 Come, all you who are thirsty, come to the waters; and you who have no money, come, buy and eat! ….. Give ear and come to me; listen, that you may live.

    In Ezekiel, we can see the water of life flowing out from the temple of God and in Revelation too there is the water of life from the throne of God. Water is essential to lead a life on this earth. By using this function of water God is comparing his salvation and to receive the salvation we have to drink the water of life.

    The Water of Life From God

    Then who is the source of the water of life? According to the bible the only source of water of life is God himself because only God can give eternal life. (Ps 133:3, Jn 10:28) In the Old Testament, God the Father Jehovah was the Savior and thus He was the source of the water of life.

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

    Therefore, those who wanted to receive salvation must come to God Jehovah for the water of life. In the Age of the Son, it was only Jesus who could give the water of life.

    John 4:13 Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.

    Then what about us? Who is the source of the water of life in our time? Definitely, it is God. Then who is the true Savior that we have to receive as God in the last day? Without paying attention to the bible, we cannot find the true Savior. Then what does the bible say about the Savior in the last day? Who are the source of the water of life?

    What is the New Jerusalem that is the source of the water of life in the last day?

    The Water of Life from the Spirit and the Bride

    Revelation, which testifies about the last day, teaches us the true source of the water of life in the last day.

    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.

    Revelation prophesies that the water of life or salvation of eternal life is coming from the Spirit and the bride. Then who must be the Spirit and the bride? We have agreed that the only one who can give the water of life is God himself. In this respect, we can say that the Spirit and the bride must be God.

    The Spirit is God the Father in terms of the Trinity that God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit are one. Then who are the bride of the Spirit (or the Lamb in Revelation 21:9 and 19:7)? Since this bride is the wife of the Lamb Jesus, who is God the Father, we can guess she must be God the Mother.

    Who is the Bride of the Lamb?

    The Bride of the Lamb, Heavenly Jerusalem

    In the Book of Revelation, John testifies about the bride of the Spirit who gives the water of life. Let us follow his testimony one by one to find out the identity of the bride in Revelation.

    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.

    Here we can see the wedding banquet of the Lamb and the bride. Since the Lamb in Chapter 19 is referred as the Spirit in Chapter 22, we can see the Lamb (or Jesus) is the Spirit. That is, the bridegroom of the wedding is Jesus himself. Since this is about the last day, we can say that this is about Jesus’ Second Coming as bridegroom to complete the parable of wedding banquet which he taught 2000 years ago. (Mt 22:1) Then who is the bride of Jesus? She was never mentioned in the parable of the wedding banquet 2000 years ago since it was not the time for her to be revealed.

    Finally, the time for the bride has come and she is ready to be revealed. Then who is the bride or the wife of the Lamb?

    Revelation 21:9 One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb.” And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God.

    An angel showed John the New Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God. What is the New Jerusalem who is the wife of the Lamb?

    Heavenly Jerusalem Our Mother

    Here the angel showed John the wife of the Lamb. Strangely enough the bride of the Lamb is described as “the Holy City, the New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband.” (Rev 21:2) As we know that the bible is mainly written in a parabolic language, we have to understand this also as parable. We should not think that a city of precious gems is coming down from heaven.

    To find out the true meaning of the Heavenly Jerusalem we have to find a mated verse in the bible as Isiah said: “Look in the scroll of the Lord and read: None of these will be missing, not one will lack her mate.” The vision of the heavenly Jerusalem can be explained through the mated verse in the bible.

    Apostle Paul had the same vision of the Heavenly Jerusalem and testified about it.

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

    Paul clearly testifies that the Heavenly Jerusalem is our Mother, which means God the Mother who give us life. The reason God the Mother is compared the Most Holy Place of the Jerusalem Temple (Rev 21:16) can be found in Jesus Christ himself, who compared his body as temple of God where the Spirit of God dwells. (Jn 2:20) This is true with God the Mother who will appear in human likeness, forsaking the divinity of God. (Phil 2:7)

    (To find more information about Christ as the reality of the temple, follow this link.)

    Jesus said that he is the source of the water of life. Likewise, Christ is the true temple of God from where the living water is flowing out to the whole world giving life to people.

    Conclusion

    Through these testimonies of the bible, we can conclude that the Spirit and the Bride are God the Father and God the Mother, coming together to give the water of life.

    Therefore, those who want to receive the salvation of God in our time must know the Spirit and Bride to receive the water of life. If we look at the outward appearance of the Spirit and the Bride, we can be deceived and reject them. Then what the consequences would be!! Rather suspending our disbelief, we have to pay attention to the words of God in the bible. Then we can see the divinity hidden in the form of human likeness.

    Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother appeared as the Spirit and the bride to us to give us the water of life. Now come to the Spirit and the bride and receive the salvation of eternal life.

  • [GOD THE MOTHER] The Way To Life In Heaven

    [GOD THE MOTHER] The Way To Life In Heaven

    The Way To Life God the Mother

    The Way of Life God the Mother–Whatever was done by Christ 2000 years ago was given to us as example.

    John 13:15  I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you.

    Therefore, Apostles of Jesus teaches us that we must follow the teachings of Jesus as they followed them.

    1 Corinthians 11:1 Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.

    The Example of Jesus About The Way Of Life

    The Way of Life God the Mother–Then what kind of example Jesus taught us about the way of life. We all want to receive the eternal life in heaven. To know the way of life, we also must follow the example of Jesus.

    John 14:6 Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.

    Jesus said that He is the way, which means we can get to our destination the kingdom of heaven by following the examples of Jesus. Therefore, the Apostles who followed the examples Jesus taught says that there is a way of life that we must follow to receive the eternal life.

    Hebrews 6:19 We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain, 20 where our forerunner, Jesus, has entered on our behalf. He has become a high priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek.

    Jesus as our forerunner or in other words example entered into the inner sanctuary to show us the way of life. The inner sanctuary behind the curtain means the Most Holy Place where the Ark of the Covenant was.

    The way of life God the Mother
    Jacob’s Ladder by William Blake

    The Reason We Should Enter The Most Holy Place

    The Way of Life God the Mother–Then what is the true meaning of entering the Most Holy Place?

    Hebrews 10:19 Therefore, brothers and sisters, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus, 20 by a new and living way opened for us through the curtain, that is, his body

    Paul teaches us that the way to the Most Holy Place is “a new and living way”. In other words, it is the way of life we must enter to receive the eternal life. Originally, this way of life into the Most Holy Place was not allowed to access since it was hidden by the curtain.

    Hebrews 9:8 The Holy Spirit was showing by this that the way into the Most Holy Place had not yet been disclosed as long as the first tabernacle was still functioning.

    The way of the Most Holy Place was not revealed yet until Jesus opened the way to it. If we look at the layout of the tabernacle or the sanctuary of the temple, we can see two rooms separated by a curtain. The room near to the entrance was called the Holy Place, and the inner room the Most Holy Place. As long as the curtain stood, the way to the Most Holy Places was hidden. It means the way of life was closed.

    However, Apostle Paul teaches that the way to the Most Holy Place came to be open through the blood of Jesus. Now since the way is open, we can now follow Jesus’ example and enter into the Most Holy Place.

    The Spiritual Most Holy Place

    The Way of Life God the Mother–Then what is the Most Holy Place we must enter to receive eternal life. Should we go to Jerualem and build a temple there? Paul says all these things were given as copy and shadow until the reality should come.

    Hebrews 9:9 This is an illustration for the present time, indicating that the gifts and sacrifices being offered were not able to clear the conscience of the worshiper. 10 They are only a matter of food and drink and various ceremonial washings—external regulations applying until the time of the new order.

    What the priest did inside the temple according to the Law of Moses was mere “external regulations. When the Christ came and established “the new order,” the old regulations were abolished. Therefore, now we must find out the realities which God wanted to reveal to us through the illustration. Then what is the reality of the Most Holy Place? According to the bible, the Most Holy Place has one very important characteristic which can be found in nothing else. That is, it is designed like a cube.

    1 Kings 6:19  He prepared the inner sanctuary within the temple to set the ark of the covenant of the Lord there. 20 The inner sanctuary was twenty cubits long, twenty wide and twenty high.

    What is the reality of the Most Holy Place?
    The Structure of the Tabernacle and the Most Holy Place behind the curtain

    The Reality of The Most Holy Place, God The Mother

    The Way of Life God the Mother–When King Solomon built the Jerusalem Temple, he designed the inner sanctuary (or the Most Holy Place) in the shape of a cube. This was a prophecy for the reality of the Most Holy Place that we must enter to receive the eternal life. In the Book of Revelation, we can find the reality, not a mere illustration or copy, of the Most Holy Place that is in heaven.

    When Moses built the first sanctuary, God showed him the reality of the sanctuary which is in heaven. This earthly sanctuary was given as illustration for the heavenly sanctuary until the time comes when the heavenly sanctuary be revealed. Finally, in the Book of Revelation, the Heavenly Most Holy Place, the reality of the earthly inner place of the sanctuary is known to us. The bible says the real genuine Most Holy Place would come down from heaven to this earth.

    Revelation 21:15 He measured the city with the rod and found it to be 12,000 stadia in length, and as wide and high as it is long.

    John saw the reality of the Most Holy Place of the Heavenly Jerusalem Temple. And he testifies that it would come down from heaven to us. It means when this time comes, we don’t need a copy anymore because we WILL have the reality of the Most Holy Place. Then what is the reality of the Heavenly Jerusalem which is coming down from heaven in the last days? It is God the Mother who would come down from heaven in the last days. (Galatian 4:26, To know more about this topic, please read some related topics.)

    Would the Heavenly Jerusalem appear in this way?

    The Way Of Life, God The Mother

    The Way of Life God the Mother–Through this we can understand that the way of life Jesus showed us as example was actually God the Mother who would come as the reality of the Most Holy Place. Jesus said that he was the reality of the temple. Jesus represented the Holy Place, the outer room. Before his sacrifice, there was a curtain between the inner room and outer room. That is why the way to the inner room was not disclosed yet.

    However, through his death on the cross, his body of the temple was torn down. At this moment, the outer room along with the curtain was brought down so that the way to the inner room could be revealed.

    Matthew 27:51  At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook, the rocks split 52 and the tombs broke open. The bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life. 53 They came out of the tombs after Jesus’ resurrection and went into the holy city and appeared to many people.

    Through his death, Jesus opened the way to the Most Holy Place and many of saints could enter the inner room to receive the eternal life.

    Conclusion

    The Way of Life God the Mother–This was given to us as example. Christ wanted to reveal to us one thing by sacrificing his body to the point of death: the reality of the Most Holy Place God the Mother. To fulfill the prophecies of the bible God the Mother came down from heaven to us. Just as Jesus showed us as example, we must enter into the Most Holy Place by receiving the Heavenly Mother with joyful and thankful mind because she is the one who can give eternal life to us.

    Mother left the heavenly throne of glory and honor and came down to us appearing in the human form. She is sacrificing herself day and night for our salvation. Now let us accept the Mother so that we also could enter into the Most Holy Place following Christ’s example.

  • God The Mother: In The Book Of Revelation

    God The Mother: In The Book Of Revelation

    God the Mother in Revelation–We have been searching for the evidences of God the Mother from Genesis all throughout the bible. Now we have come to the end of the bible, that is, the the Book of Revelation. As it is known, this Book of Revelation is concerned about the last day when Jesus is coming for the second time to give us the salvation, eternal life. In this book, God clearly let us know how to receive the water of life, eternal life.

    The Water of Life from the Heavenly Jerusalem

    God the Mother in Revelation–2000 years ago, Jesus said, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, 14 but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” (John 4:13) It was because he was the source of the water of life, or the eternal life. That is why those who wanted to receive the water of life must come to Jesus for the living water.

    But in the book of Revelation, which is concerned about the last day when the creation work of God is finished by giving salvation to his people, God let us know that it is God the Mother who can give us the water of life, eternal life.

    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 this prophecy, the eternal life is coming from the Spirit and the Bride. Then who are the Spirit and the Bride then? Commonsensically, it is only God who can give us the water of Life and therefore, we can say they must be God. Many Christians says the brides are the church in this book, but it is not true. How can God’s people grant eternal life to each other?

    First, who is the Spirit? The uppercase Spirit represent God the Father or the Second Coming Christ who would appear in the last day for our salvation. (Hebrews 9:28) But since Christ is represented as Adam spiritually, the bride of Christ or Adam must be the spiritual Eve, who is the mother of all the living. (Genesis 3:20) Then who is this bride of Jesus who is coming to give us the water of life? Where is she coming from?

    The Bride of Jesus, Heavenly Jerusalem

    Revelation 21:9   One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb.” 10 And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God.

    What is the New Jerusalem coming down from heaven in the last days as the bride of Christ?

    God the Mother in Revelation–In the vision, John was supposed to be shown the bride of the Lamb (or the Second Coming Jesus Christ) by the angel, but what was actually shown was the Heavenly City Jerusalem, which would come down from heaven in the last day. If we take a further look at the description of the city, it is represented as a cube, “a square as long as it was wide.” (Revelation 21:16) The only thing in the Temple of God which is shaped like a cube is the Most Holy Place of the temple.

    Since the earthly temple established by Moses was a copy and shadow of the temple in heaven which was the reality. (Hebrews 8:5) And as we have already seen before, the reality of temple which was in heaven was not actually a building, but the Christ. (John 2:19) Therefore, we can conclude the heavenly Most Holy Place of the temple must be also fulfilled by a Christ, or God who is coming as man in the flesh and putting the Spirit of God in the body of the temple.

    To understand the Christ, let us study the earthly temple a little. The earthly temple was mainly made up of two different rooms: the outer room and the inner room. The outer room was called the Holy Place; and the inner room, the Most Holy Place. And the Throne of God was placed in the Most Holy Place and on that throne God was enthroned in Spirit between the cherubim. And between the outer room and inner room was a curtain to separate them from each other.

    This structure of the physical temple was given to us to teach us the invisible and spiritual temple in Heaven, that is, Christ. According to the bible, Jesus was represented as the outer room and curtain which was separating the inner room from the outer room. By the destruction of his body of temple and curtain through his crucifixion 2000 years ago, he destroyed the outer room and the curtain so that the way to the Most Holy Place would be open and God’s people enter into the Most Holy Place to receive the water of life from God.

    The Reality of the Most Holy Place, God the Mother

    Matthew 27:51  At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook, the rocks split 52 and the tombs broke open. The bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life.

    God the Mother in Revelation–Through his death and piercing of his body on the cross, Jesus could destroy the Holy Place and the curtain which were concealing the Most Holy Place. Through his destruction of the body of temple, he could open the way to the inner room.

    Hebrews 10:19  Therefore, brothers and sisters, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus, 20 by a new and living way opened for us through the curtain, that is, his body.

    Through this we can clearly see the Holy Place was the body of Christ Jesus, or God the Father. When God the Father came as man in the flesh, he was the reality of the Holy Place of the temple. Then who is the reality of the Most Holy Place? The bible says the Heavenly Jerusalem is the reality of the Most Holy Place. Then who is the Holy City Jerusalem coming down from heaven from God. About this heavenly Jerusalem Paul testifies like this:

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

    Paul let us know the reality of the Heavenly Jerusalem, the Most Holy Place and he says the Heavenly Jerusalem or the Jerusalem above (or in heaven) is Our Mother. Who is our Father in heaven? God the Father. Then who is our Mother above in heaven? God the Mother.

    What is the reality of the Most Holy Place of the Jerusalem Temple?

    When Paul saw this Heavenly Jerusalem, she was in heaven; but when John saw this heavenly Jerusalem, she was coming down out of heaven to this earth. Then what is the meaning of the prophecy? 2000 years Jesus (God the Father) who was the reality of the Holy Place of the temple came as man wiith a physical body and put the Spirit of God in him just like the temple. In the same way, according to this vision, in the last day, God the Mother would appear as woman with a physical body to give us the salvation of eternal life.

    Conclusion

    God the Mother in Revelation–Through all these prophecies and more, God teaches us that we must know God the Mother in the last day to receive the water of life, eternal life. To fulfill these prophecies of the bible God the Mother, who is the reality of the Most Holy Place, came down to this earth as man in the flesh. She is call us to come to Her, the true source of the water of life.

    Come to the Spirit Christ Ahnsahnghong and his Bride God the Mother to receive the eternal life and be the child of God. God is earnestly calling everybody to come for salvation. Come to the World Mission Society Church fo God.

  • Heavenly Wedding Banquet: Who Is The Bride Of Christ?

    Heavenly Wedding Banquet: Who Is The Bride Of Christ?

    In the previous post, I have explained about one parable of Jesus: The Heavenly Wedding Banquet and its meaning. Through the parable, actually God was teaching us that there would appear a bride of Jesus in the last days. She is the one who would be able to give us the eternal life and salvation. Therefore, we must know the bride of Jesus who would appear to us in the form of woman along with the Christ who was to appear in the form of man. Our Father and Mother appear as man in the flesh and give the water of life.

    How To Recognize the Christ and His Bride

    Now the question is if she is to appear one of women on this earth how we can know who the true bride of Christ is since there are so many women living on this earth. When she comes, will she have certain undeniable signs through which we can immediately recognize her? That would not be true because the appearance of the Christ as male or female is not easy to recognize as it happened 2000 years ago when Christ Jesus came for the first time. His or her appearance must be kept as secret until the appointed time.

    Matthew 8:4  Then Jesus said to him, “See that you don’t tell anyone.”

    Matthew 17:9  As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus instructed them, “Don’t tell anyone what you have seen, until the Son of Man has been raised from the dead.”

    All throughout the gospel, Jesus said to his disciples and people not to reveal his true identity to others until the appointed time. It was because he must come in secret and nobody is supposed to know the true identity of Jesus through his physical appearance. The only way, we can know him was through the fulfillment of the prophecies of the bible. In this way, God was separating two types of people: those who have spiritual eyes and those who don’t. Those who have spiritual eyes were those who believed the prophecies of the bible and accepted Jesus as Christ even though he looked just like a man in the outward appearance.

    It is the same with the appearance of the Second Coming Christ and His bride in the last days. In the outward physical appearance they would be like exactly one of us; therefore, through the appearance we will not be able to recognize them. The only way for us to know them is through the fulfillment of the prophecies of the bible. The bible prophecies that the Spirit and the Bride would appear and give the water of life. Then how can we know the Spirit and the bride? It is through the water of life (eternal life) they give. Whoever it may be, the one who brings the water of life is the Spirit and the Bride and the water of life is the words of God that gives the eternal life. And the words of God is:

    John 6:53  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.

    And the flesh and blood of Christ was the Passover the New Covenant. Therefore, the one who brings the Passover is the Spirit and the bride in the bible. The one who restored the Passover which was abolished in AD 325 was Christ Ahnsahnghong and the one who came as the Heavenly Jerusalem, the reality of the new covenant is Our Mother. Therefore, the prophecies were fulfilled by Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother and we can know they are the Spirit and the bride once we remove their physical appearance.

    The Bride Revealed

    Since they are coming in secret, we must know how to recognize them correctly. In this parable of Wedding, what is hidden is the bride of Christ and she is the key for the kingdom of heaven. Then how can we know the bride? The bible says all the physical things on this earth was given to us to teach us the spiritual things in heaven. (Romans 1:20) Therefore, to know the bride first we must look at the wedding on this earth. In a wedding ceremony at first the bride is veiled. And then who is it that reveals the bride to the guests? It is the bridegroom.

    Heavenly Wedding Banquet
    Bride in Veil

    In the same way, in this spiritual wedding banquet too, it should be the bridegroom (the Second Coming Christ) who would reveal the bride. To confirm this let us, take a look at some of the prophecies of the bible.

    Isaiah 62:6  I have posted watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem; they will never be silent day or night. You who call on the Lord, give yourselves no rest, 7 and give him no rest till he establishes Jerusalem and makes her the praise of the earth.

    When this prophecy was written in BC 700 by Prophet Isaiah the physical Jerusalem and its Temple was already established by King David and Solomon about 300 years ago. And he is talking about a Jerusalem which is going to be established in the future. Then what is this Jerusalem? He must be speaking about the heavenly Jerusalem and he says that the Heavenly Jerusalem is going to be established by God himself. It means the Second Coming Christ, who is God (Romans 9:5) will reveal the spiritual Jerusalem our Mother to the guests (God’s people).

    Adam Established Eve

    This can be confirmed through the story of Adam and Eve. The story of Adam and Eve in Genesis is not just a story of past, but it is story of Christ and his bride. According to the bible, Christ is compared to 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.

    The one to come in the bible is the Christ who is coming as Savior, but especially, this Christ in the Book of Romans is about the Second Coming Christ because this book was written after the first coming of Christ. Then why is Christ compared to Adam? It is because through the work and life of Adam God is teaching us the work of Christ. So the work and life of Adam in Eden was given to us to teach us the spiritual Adam who would come and fulfill the work spiritually. Therefore, we can say Adam was given to us as prophecy to teach us about the Christ.

    Since Adam represents Christ, the bride of Adam or Eve means the bride of Christ. Then in the story of Adam who was the one who revealed Eve? This is very important because through this we can see who is going to reveal the bride of Christ the spiritual Eve.

    Genesis 2:22  Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man. 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.”

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

    In this story of Garden of Eden who was it that revealed Eve the bride of Adam? It was not God who testified about Eve or named Eve. It was Adam himself. He gave Eve the role and definition as the life-giver and also he reveals that Eve is his own flesh and blood. Since Adam signifies the Christ and Eve the bride of Christ, just as Adam revealed Eve, the Christ himself will reveal his bride. Therefore, by listening to the testimony of the Second Coming Christ we can know who the true bride is who can give us the water of life. God let Adam to testify about Eve and it means nobody is supposed to know the existence of the spiritual Eve until Adam appears and reveals her to people. That is why Eve or the bride of Christ is the last hidden secret for the kingdom of heaven.

    To fulfill this wedding banquet, Christ Ahnsahnhong revealed our Mother as His Bride who can give us eternal life. In 1984, he commanded his disciples to prepare for the Passover in a Wedding Hall. Since the Passover is a festival of God through which we can eat and drink the flesh and blood of Christ and have the forgiveness and eternal life, usually it was kept in Zion, the city of God’s festivals. But in 1984 Christ Ahnsahnghong directed to prepare the Passover in a wedding hall, and through the Passover he wanted to reveal the reality of the flesh and blood of Christ as Adam, that is, the spiritual Eve.

    He directed them to light the blue and red candles, which is the symbol of a wedding ceremony and in the wedding banquet he revealed our Mother the spiritual Eve who would become “the Mother of all the Living.” And he taught his disciples.

    Peter Followed Jesus,
    Joshua Followed Moses,
    Elisha Followed Elijah,
    And I Follow Mother.

    Through this he completed the parable of the wedding banquet and commanded us to obey Mother because she is the one who fulfilled all the prophecies of the bible and came down to this earth to give us the water of life.

    Conclusion

    Zechariah 14:6  On that day there will be neither sunlight nor cold, frosty darkness. 7 It will be a unique day—a day known only to the Lord—with no distinction between day and night. When evening comes, there will be light. 8 On that day living water will flow out from Jerusalem, half of it east to the Dead Sea and half of it west to the Mediterranean Sea, in summer and in winter.

    To fulfill the prophecies of the bible, Mother came and giving us the water of life. Come to the Jerusalem our Mother for the eternal life.

    [WMSCOG] Jerusalem Mother

    Mother In The Creation Of God

    The core teaching of God in the bible is the eternal life we will have in heaven. Therefore, we must have the eternal life promised in the bible. Many people says that they could receive eternal life by the faith in Christ, or through the baptism they received. Many people give many different answers. Then how can we know how to receive the eternal life to go to the kingdom of heaven? The Bible teaches that there is God the Mother, Heavenly Jerusalem who would come to give us eternal life. God said that the physical and visible world on this earth was created to teach the spiritual and invisible world in heaven. Therefore, to understand the spiritual world which we cannot see, first we must look at the physical world we see.

    Revelation 4:11   You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they were created and have their being.

    The bible says that this physical world and everything in it were created according to the will of God. Then what is the will of God in creating a mother? In this physical world how is the life given to a child? It is always given through a mother who is the true life-giver in this physical world. Birds, fish, animals, and human beings, even insects give life to its young through mother. And this world was created to show us the invisible world and as in the physical world, in the spiritual world also the spiritual life should be given through the spiritual Mother or God the Mother.

    The source of life on this earth is in a mother. Through this God is teaching about the spiritual Mother who gives us eternal life, that is, God the Mother.

    Then can we find the existence of God the Mother in the bible? Even though it seems to be logical to have a spiritual Mother to give us the spiritual life, it would be absurd and blasphemous to believe in God the Mother if the bible does not testifies about the spiritual Mother. If it does, however, we must believe God the Mother even though we might think differently, right? Then does the bible say that we have God the Mother who can give us the spiritual life? We are so accustomed to the notion of God the Father and we might think it is wrong even to think about God the Mother. But the bible testified about God the Mother even from the beginning just as it testified about the Christ even from the beginning as prophecies. Just as Christ who would come to this earth according to the prophecies, God the Mother would appear to us at the appointed time of God.

    God The Mother In The Creation Of Man

    2000 years ago when Christ appeared, those who did not know or believe the prophecies of the bible rejected Christ and rejected their own salvation because they could not accept the notion of God coming as man, which was against common sense of the time. In the same way, many people who do not know the prophecies would reject God the Mother because the notion of God who exists as female image is contrary to the common sense of today and people might reject God the Mother who appears on this earth to give us salvation. Therefore, we must know God the Mother and accept her if she is testified in the bible. Then what does the bible says about God the Mother? Let us take a look at the beginning, the Book of Genesis to find some testimonies about God the Mother.

    Genesis 1:26   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.”

    This verse in the Book of Genesis was a riddle to many biblical scholars because the referents of God, “us” and “our” is contrary to the common sense of God. People says that God is one and then why does the bible use the plural form (us and our) to refer to God? Simply the answer is God is not one (singular), but two (plural). Let us confirm this through the creation of God in Genesis. Even though we cannot see God to find out the images of God because God is spiritual and invisible, God created one physical and visible thing on this earth to teach his invisible image. God created man (or mankind) in the image of God and therefore, to know the image of God we can look at the image of man because man was given God’s image. Then let us look at the creation of man to find out 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 who was created in the image of God was created as male and female. Male (Adam) and Female (Eve) were created according to the image of God. Therefore, we can be sure that there should be a male image of God who gave male (Adam) his image and also there must be a female image of God who gave her image to female (Eve). The male image of God has been called God the Father for thousands years by the people who had knowledge of God and then what should the female image of God called? She must be called God the Mother.

    How can we expect life without a mother?

    God The Mother In The Creation Of Adam And Eve

    This can be confirmed through the teachings of Christ too. According to the bible Adam was created to resemble the male image of God and therefore he was created to teach us God the Father who was his original image in heaven. Therefore, Adam represents God the Father. Let us confirm.

    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 teaches that Adam in Genesis was created to teach us “the one to come” in the future. Then who is the one who was to come in the future? Isn’t it the Christ, who is God coming in the flesh? Since Adam was created as a pattern of Christ, to know Christ we must look at Adam. Through this we can know that God created Adam, a physical man on this earth to teach us the Christ, God the Father who is spiritual and invisible. If then, what is the will of God creating Eve, the wife of Adam? Just as God created Adam to teach us God the Father who would come down to this earth to give us eternal life, God created Eve to show us God the Mother who would come down to this earth as man in the flesh to give us eternal life.

    In this physical world to give life to the children we need father and mother and in the same way, to give eternal life God has been teaching even from the beginning that we need God the Father and God the Mother. And especially, God the Mother is the one who will give life to the children just as physical mother who gives physical life to her children. A father is the one who gives seeds for the life in this physical world and mother is the one who transforms the seed into a life. 2000 years ago Jesus Christ gave the spiritual seeds (the words of God) which will be created into life only through God the Mother at the last day.

    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.

    This is the seeds or the words of God for the eternal life given by God the Father, which will sprout into a new life through God the Mother at the last day. Christ said that the life is given through his flesh and blood. Then what is his flesh and blood? On the night of the Passover, Jesus said that the bread and wine of the Passover represent his flesh and blood and through the Passover we can take part in his flesh and blood to receive the forgiveness and eternal life. But this words of God were given until the time of fulfillment when the true reality of Christ’s flesh and blood revealed to give eternal life.
    According to the bible Adam was created as pattern for God the Father coming as man in the flesh. That was fulfilled by Jesus Christ by coming as spiritual Adam to give us eternal life.

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

    Jesus came as Adam to give us life and he gave us his flesh and blood for the eternal life. Then what is his flesh and blood that gives us eternal life at the last day? What is the meaning of the Passover? To understand these things, we must look at Adam who was given as pattern for the Christ. Therefore, to find out the meaning of Christ’s flesh and blood we must look at Adam’s flesh and blood. Then what is the secret that is hidden in Adam? What is his flesh and blood?

    Adam and Eve were created according to the invisible image of God. Even though God is invisible, through Adam and Eve God is teaching us that there are two images of God, male and female, that is, God the Father and God the Mother.

    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. 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.”

    God created Eve with bones and flesh of Adam. Since a bone represents blood it produces in its marrow, Adam’s bones and flesh mean Adam’s flesh and blood (bone). Then what is the reality of Adam’s flesh and blood? It is Eve. Then what was the will of God in creating Eve?

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

    Eve means “life” or “living” and she was created to be the mother who would give life to all the living, or all those who would receive the eternal life. When God said, “I am the God of Abraham, God of Isaac, God of Jacob. I am not the God of the dead, but the God of the living,” the living are not the ones who have physical life on this earth, but the spiritual life in heaven. According to Genesis, however, Eve (Adam’s flesh and blood) was created to give the eternal life. As we have already examined, this story of Adam and Eve was actually a prophecy about Christ or God who was to come as man in the flesh to give us eternal life at the last day.

    God The Mother In The Book Of Revelation

    2000 years ago when Jesus came down to this earth it was not the time for God the Mother to be revealed. That is why he gave the promise of eternal life through the seeds, the words of God until the time when the true reality of his flesh and blood, that is, the last Eve be revealed at the last day. Then when would Eve be revealed who is the Mother of all the living and who can give eternal life to her spiritual children? If we look at the Book of Genesis, the last day of the creation is the sixth day because on the seventh day God finished his creation work and took rest so the last day of the creation is the sixth day. What did God do on the sixth day? First, he created animals and then as the last thing of his creation he created man, Adam and Eve. This six day creation actually represents 6000 years of God’s salvation work. (2 Peter 3:8) And the fact that God created Adam and Eve on the sixth day means that God would come down as spiritual Adam and Eve at the end of his salvation work to give eternal life to God’s people. And this was recorded as the Spirit and the Bride in the Book of Revelation.
    The Book of Revelation shows the things that would happen at the last day and in the last day the second coming Christ (the Last Adam) would come with his bride (the Last Eve) to give eternal life. In other words finally at the last day the reality of the Passover (Christ’s flesh and blood), that is, God the Mother would be revealed so that God’s people would receive eternal life from her.

    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.
    8 Fine linen, bright and clean,
    was given her to wear.”

    Who is the Lamb? It is the second coming Christ who was to come at the last day, or we can called him the last Adam who is coming to give us eternal life. But when he is coming at the last day, he is not coming by himself, but he is coming with his bride (Adam’s bride or the Last Eve). Many people says that this bride of Christ is God’s people, but this is not true in this context even though it might be true in some other places. Let us confirm by looking at Chapter 21.

    Revelation 21:9    One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb.” 10 And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God.

    The wife of the Christ is the Heavenly Jerusalem who is coming down from heaven at the last day. Jesus said that he came down from heaven 2000 years ago, which meant he came down to this earth as man in the flesh. In the same way, this Heavenly Jerusalem is coming down from heaven at the last day. Then what is the heavenly Jerusalem and how would this come down from heaven?

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

    the Jerusalem above (or in heaven) represents our mother. Just as we have our Father, one spiritual Father in heaven, we have our Mother or one spiritual Mother in heaven. Once God the Father came down to his earth as man in the flesh and also God the Mother (Heavenly Jerusalem) would come down to this earth as man–or more specifically as woman–in the flesh at the last day to give us life. So the Lamb and the Bride in the book of Revelation are actually God the Father and God the Mother who would appear at the end of 6000 years of God’s salvation work to give eternal life. And the bible testifies them as the Spirit and the Bride who is coming to give eternal life.
    “Adam named his wife Eve because she would become the Mother of all the living.” God is God of the living and the living receives life through Eve who represents God the Mother.

    God The Mother Giving Eternal Life

    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.

    The Spirit is the Lamb or God the Father who is coming as the Last Adam to give life. Then who was the Bride? The Bride of Christ is the Heavenly Jerusalem our Mother or the Last Eve who is the true reality of the flesh and blood of Adam and who was to come as the mother of all the living. 2000 years ago, Adam came and he tore his flesh and shed his blood and gave the Passover as promise for the eternal life and finally Christ Ahnsahnghong came down to this earth for the second time to reveal us the reality of his flesh and blood, God the Mother who can give us the eternal life. Through this we must realize the time frame we are living in. We are truly live at the last day on which Jesus promised eternal life 2000 years ago. And now we must accept the Last Adam and Eve, God the Father and Mother who came to us as man in the flesh to give us eternal life. This is the will of God that we should follow: Life is given through a mother physically and spiritually. God the Mother is calling the children to come to receive the eternal life.
    Come to the Spirit and the Bride to receive the water of life!!
  • God the Mother, The Reality Of The New Covenant

    God said that he would make a new covenant in the book of Jeremiah 31 and Jesus came down to this earth and established the new covenant through the Passover. Then why did God decide to give another covenant over the old covenant. About the reason Paul explains like this:
     
    Hebrews 8:7   For if there had been nothing wrong with that first covenant, no place would have been sought for another.
     
    Paul says that the reason God made another covenant or the new covenant was the first covenant or the old covenant was not good enough for the salvation. It had something wrong in it. Its ministry for the forgiveness of sins with animal blood by the Order of Aaron could not bring the perfect salvation, and because of that the ministry was changed into the Order of Melchizedek by Jesus through his own blood, not with the blood of animals. Because of this change in ministry, the law and all the regulation has changed too from the Law of Moses to the Law of Christ.
     
    Hebrews 7:11   If perfection could have been attained through the Levitical priesthood—and indeed the law given to the people established that priesthood—why was there still need for another priest to come, one in the order of Melchizedek, not in the order of Aaron? 12 For when the priesthood is changed, the law must be changed also.
     
    Therefore, the new covenant is the perfection of the Law of God to bring complete salvation to people. For this reason to receive salvation we must know and follow the new covenant. Then what is the new covenant?
     

    God the Mother the Reality of new covenant
    Heavenly Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God. Would it be a big city like this?

     Galatians 4:21    Tell me, you who want to be under the law, are you not aware of what the law says? 22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave woman and the other by the free woman. 23 His son by the slave woman was born according to the flesh, but his son by the free woman was born as the result of a divine promise. 24 These things are being taken figuratively: The women represent two covenants. One covenant is from Mount Sinai and bears children who are to be slaves: This is Hagar. 25 Now Hagar stands for Mount Sinai in Arabia and corresponds to the present city of Jerusalem, because she is in slavery with her children. 26 But the Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our mother.
     
    Through Abraham’s two wives Paul explains the two covenants of God: the old covenant and the new covenant. Let us take a look at this table.
     
    The slave woman                                The free woman
    Hagar                                                     Sarah
    The Old Covenant                               The New Covenant
    Mt. Sinai                                                 Mt. Zion
    The Earthly Jerusalem                      The Heavenly Jerusalem
     
    After explaining the two covenants, He continues to explain the reality of the new covenant. The reality of the old covenant was the city of Jerusalem and the earthly Temple built in it. But the reality of the new covenant is the heavenly Jerusalem and the Temple. Then what is this heavenly Jerusalem Temple? Jesus teaches us that his body is the true reality of the temple. He said to the Jews, “Destroy this temple and I will raise it up in three days.” The temple means his body where the Spirit of God dwells. Through this God is teaching us the reality of the Temple, Christ who came down to this earth to us.
     
    Then what is the reality of the Heavenly Jerusalem? Paul says, “She is our Mother” in heaven. Our Father in heaven came as the reality of the temple 2000 years ago, and in the same way our Mother in heaven will come down as the reality of the temple in the last days. About coming of heavenly Jerusalem our Mother, John describes in his vision in the book of Revelation 21. In his vision he saw the Heavenly Jerusalem our Mother coming down out of heaven from God as the reality of the temple to give us the water of life (Rev 22:17). The true temple is the place where the Spirit of God dwells. Wherever the Spirit of God dwells is the temple. In that sense, John is saying that our Mother would come down as man in the flesh in the last days.
     
    To fulfill the prophecies of the bible the true reality of temple our Mother came down to this earth to give us life. Let us give glory to God the Father and Mother. This is the true teaching of Christ Ahnsahnghong, the true Savior in the Age of the Holy Spirit and the Heavenly Mother. 
  • Abraham and Sarah: Spiritual Meaning Behind A Family History

    Everything in the bible is recorded for one purpose, that is, to teach us the way of salvation. Therefore, when we read the bible, we should not think anything lightly. Everything in the bible contains God’s message for our salvation. If we look at the book of Genesis, we can see a long and detailed record of the family history of Abraham. How and when Abraham was chosen, what kind of promise was given to him, who was his son and grandsons, how are where they lived–all these things are recorded in a detailed way. Why did God write the family history of Abraham? This is not just one family history; rather, through this story God teaches us the way of salvation.

    Abraham and Sarah, who are they? Why did God record a history of one family in such a detailed way? What does God want to teach us through the story of Abraham?

    According to the bible, Abraham represents God himself figuratively and therefore Abraham’s children represents God’s children. In the book of Galatians, Paul clearly teaches that Christ, the Son of God was given to us to teach us who are the heirs of God. If we become sons of God like Christ (who is the archetype of the true sons of God), we can become the heir of God.

    Gal 3:29  If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise. 

    Christ is represented as the Son of God in the bible, but here in the book of Galatians Paul says Christ is the seed or Son of Abraham, rather than the Son of God. Through this he teaches us that Abraham represents God himself and the seed or son of Abraham means figuratively the sons of God who will be the heirs of God who can inherit the kingdom of heaven.  We can confirm this through another verse in the same chapter.

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

    According to the book of Genesis, Abraham’s seed was Isaac, not Christ. But Paul interpret that this family history of Abraham was given to us to teach us the heir of God who will receive inheritance in heaven or simply salvation. Even Christ himself testified that he is Isaac, the son of Abraham. God gave Abraham a promise that he would return a year later and exactly the same time next year Isaac was born to Sarah. About this story, Christ teaches the meaning behind the story.

    John 8:56  Your father Abraham rejoiced at the thought of seeing my day; he saw it and was glad.

    What Abraham actually saw on the promised day of God’s return was Isaac. God returned as Isaac, the son of Abraham. But Christ said the one who Abraham actually saw was Christ himself who was born as the son of Abraham. Through this what does God want to teach us? He is teaching us that Isaac, the son and the heir of Abraham was given to us to teach us the Christ who is the true seed or heir of God. In short, Isaac represents Christ, the Son of God and also God’s people who belong to Christ must become like Isaac to be the sons of God who can receive salvation.

    Galatians 4:28  Now you, brothers, like Isaac, are children of promise.

    God’s people must become sons of God by following Isaac’s example. Then in the story of Abraham’s family how was Isaac able to become the heir of Abraham? Abraham had two sons who could be his heir, but God’s promise was not given to “his seeds,” but “seed.” It means only one of them was given the promise to be the heir of Abraham and the one who was chosen was Isaac, not Ishmael. Then why was Isaac chosen over Ishmael who was older and could have inheritance according to the law of time called primogeniture, which means the older son can receive the inheritance from the father. According to his law Ishmael as firstborn of Abraham should be the heir, but Isaac was chosen. Then why?  It was because of the words of God that he would make a covenant with the son of Abraham who was born through Sarah, who was a free woman.

    Even though Ishmael was the firstborn, he could not receive the inheritance because he was a son of a slave woman. Having a father and mother who were not under slavery was the condition for the heir of Abraham. That is why Isaac, who was born through Abraham (a free man) and Sarah (a free woman) could be chosen as the heir of Abraham, rather than Ishmael, who was born through Abraham (a free man) and Hagar (a slave woman). Through this story of the heir of Abraham, God is teaching us who can become the heir of God.

    Since Abraham represents God the Father, who is free from sin and death, then who does Sarah represent? Paul reveals who the wife of Abraham represents in the book of Galatians. He compares Hagar and Sarah which symbolizes the old covenant and new covenant respectively. Just as the center of the old covenant was the earthly Jerusalem, he teaches the center of the new covenant is the heavenly Jerusalem. Then what is the reality of the heavenly Jerusalem?

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

    Sarah who is the symbol of the new covenant actually represent the Heavenly Jerusalem our Mother, the free woman. Just as Isaac was chosen owing to his father Abraham and his mother Sarah, through this story God is showing how to be the heir of God. We can become the heir of God like Christ through spiritual Abraham God the Father and spiritual Sarah God the Mother. This heavenly Jerusalem is also testified by Apostle John.

    Revelation 21:9  9 One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb.” 10 And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God.

    According to the bible, when Christ is coming, he is coming with his wife, Heavenly Jerusalem. The Lamb Our Father and his wife Heavenly Jerusalem Our Mother are coming together in the last days to give us the eternal life. (Revelation 22:17) To fulfill this prophecy God the Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and God the Mother Heavenly Jerusalem came down to this earth from heaven so that we can receive the water of life, eternal life. Let us accept the Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother Jerusalem and receive the water of life. They are the Elohim Gods we must meet in the last days.
