  • 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.

    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.

    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.

  • What is “LIFE” in the bible?

    What is “LIFE” in the bible?

    Eve, Reality of LIfe–Just as life is important for each of us physically, the spiritual life is the same. Especially, the spiritual life or the eternal life is essential for our salvation. What we do not realize is how to receive the spiritual life? And who is the source of life? Let us find out what “life” is in the bible.

    Our Spiritual Status

    Eve, Reality of LIfe–The reason life is important to us is because we do not have life in us. The bible teaches everyone on this earth is destined to die because of our sins. Nobody is free from this fate of sin and death.

    Romans 5:12 Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all people, because all sinned—

    Because of the sin of Adam, death entered into the world to all men. Through this we can understand that the sin of Adam was written to us to teach us the sins we committed in heaven. And because of our sins we got banished from heaven (the garden of Eden) and came to this earth.

    Jesus’ Teaching About The Spiritually Dead

    Eve, Reality of LIfe–Jesus teaches us that we do not have eternal life in us too.

    Matthew 8:21 21 Another disciple said to him, “Lord, first let me go and bury my father.” 22 But Jesus told him, “Follow me, and let the dead bury their own dead.” (NIV)

    Matthew 8:21 21 Another of his disciples said, “Lord, first let me return home and bury my father.” 22 But Jesus told him, “Follow me now. Let the spiritually dead bury their own dead. (NLT)

    In this verse, Jesus teaches that people living in this world are actually ‘the dead’ in the spiritual sense.  The dead mean they do not have ‘LIFE’ in them. That is, they do not have ‘eternal life’ in them. Then how can we have life in us? How can we be the living in the spiritual sense?

    The Way To Have “LIFE” in Us

    Eve, Reality of LIfe–Then how can we have life in us? Christ teaches that we must eat his flesh and drink his blood to have life.

    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.

    Jesus says that without his flesh and blood in us we cannot have “LIFE” in us. Therefore, through this words of God, we can see that the only way to have “LIFE” in us is by eating his flesh and drinking his blood. “Unless” means that there is no other way. Consequently, to have “LIFE” in us we must eat his flesh and drink his blood. His flesh and blood is “LIFE” itself.

    John 6:54 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.

    By eating his flesh and drinking his blood we can have “life” in us.

    The Reality Of Jesus’ Flesh and Blood

    Eve, Reality of LIfe–Then what is the way we participate in the flesh and blood of Jesus? To get the answer for this question is to know the reality of his flesh and blood? According to the bible, Jesus is spiritual Adam. Unlike Adam, who brought the death into the world, however, Jesus is an anti-type of Adam, who can bring “LIFE” into the world.

    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 (Christ).

    Spiritually, Adam signifies the one to come or the Christ who would come to bring “LIFE” to us. The spiritual Adam, Jesus said that we must eat his flesh and blood to have life. Since Jesus is the spiritual Adam, to know the reality of Jesus’ flesh and blood first we have know Adam’s flesh and blood.

    Adam's Flesh and Blood Eve
    Orvieto, Exterior of the Duomo: Creation of Eve

    Adam’s Flesh and Blood

    Eve, Reality of LIfe–Then what is Adam’s flesh and blood? In the Book of Genesis, God already foretold the flesh and blood of Adam. By studying the physical Adam in the book, we can know the Christ, who is the spiritual Adam. And also we can know the reality of Christ’s flesh and blood. Then what is Adam’s flesh and blood? And how is it related to “LIFE” that Jesus would give?

    Genesis 2:20 But for Adam no suitable helper was found. 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.”

    This is the creation of EVE. When Eve was created, Adam testified that Eve is his flesh and blood. “Bone of my Bones” means that Eve was Adam’s blood. The bone contains marrow which produces blood. Therefore, Adam’s rib bone represents Adam’s blood God used in creating Eve. Also God used Adam’s flesh in creating Eve.

    Eve, The Reality of Adam’s Flesh and Blood

    Eve, Reality of LIfe–Through these verses, we can see the reality of Adam’s flesh and blood, Eve. Then why did God created Eve? We can know the purpose of God in creating Eve through the name Eve itself. Eve means “LIFE”.

    Definition of Eve: The verb חיה (haya) means to live or have life, or to give or restore life; quickening or revive, nourish or refresh. This very important root-verb obviously occurs all over the Bible. (From Abarim Publications)

    Adam’s flesh and blood, Eve means “LIFE”. Through this story of Adam, God is teaching us the reality of LIFE we must know to have eternal life. Jesus said that his flesh and blood is life. Then what is the reality of Jesus’ flesh and blood? It represents “the spiritual Eve” who would appear to give us life.

    Christ’s Wife: Spiritual Eve

    Eve, Reality of LIfe–According to the bible, the spiritual Eve would appear along with spiritual Adam (Christ) in the last days to give us 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.

    Just as God created Eve (LIFE) to give life to children, the spiritual Eve (Christ’s wife) would appear to give the water of life or simply LIFE. Then who is this wife of Christ we must meet for life in the last day?

    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.

    Heavenly Jerusalem: God the Mother

    Eve, Reality of LIfe–John said that the wife of Christ the spiritual Adam is the heavenly Jerusalem that come from heaven to this earth as the bride of Christ. So we can see the Heavenly Jerusalem is the spiritual Eve or LIFE we must meet to have life in the last days. Then who is this heavenly Jerusalem?

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

    The bible teaches that the heavenly Jerusalem is Our Mother, in other words, God the Mother who appears as the reality of LIFE in the last days.

    Conclusion

    Eve, Reality of LIfe–As the spiritually dead, people on this earth do not have LIFE in us. 2000 years ago, Jesus said that his flesh and blood is the LIFE we must have in us to receive eternal life. Actually, that teaching was given to us to reveal God the Mother, the reality of Jesus’ flesh and blood who would come to this earth as the reality of LIFE in the last day.

    Now to fulfill the prophecies of the bible the spiritual Eve God the Mother appeared to us. She is the reality of LIFE we must receive to have eternal life. Jesus said “Unless you eat my flesh and drink my blood, you have no LIFE in you.” This means unless we receive the reality of Jesus’s flesh and blood, God the Mother, we cannot have LIFE in us.” It is because God the Mother is the LIFE itself who came to give us life.

  • [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!!
