Jeon Pi Yeon officials of heresy counseling center controversy 'pressuring officials of provincial government

Jeon Pi Yeon officials of heresy counseling center controversy 
'pressuring officials of provincial government



A key official of the heresy counseling center who attended the protest of Jeon Pi Yeon has pressured a public official in Chung Cheong Nam Do causing controversy because a public official hand an interview with this paper. 


The contents of 'A' person known as the head of the counseling office of the heretical counseling center in Chung Cheong Nam Do Province pressuring public officials were revealed through YouTube.


The video shows that 'A' person suddenly informed the public officials without prior notice that 'A' would post the phone call recording on YouTube and 'A' raised his voice saying "What's the problem?" when public officials took issue.


According to the YouTube, based on an interview with the governor of Chungnam Province published in this news paper, Mr. A called the secretary's office in Chungcheongnam-do and said, Do Governor admit Shincheonji? Are the provincial governor a Shincheonji?"


In response, a secretary official replied, "There is no way Governor is Shincheonji. That news media interviewed many others." Then Mr. A concluded that Cheonji daily belongs to Shincheonji and pressured the public officials saying "Is it okay to interview because others do? If he doesn't have that much common sense, I think his work skills are very poor."


The secretary checked with the public information office and replied "The reporter of Cheonji daily is an entry reporter and there is no problem because it was a written interview." Afterwards, Mr. A spoke to the public information officer. When the public information officer replied that there is no problem because it was a written interview. And Mr. A shouted to the public information officer saying "Didn't you know Cheonji daily is a Shincheonji newspaper?" And He suddenly said he would post all the phone call recording on YouTube.


When a public relations official raised the question, saying "Do you suddenly post it on YouTube without notifying?" he raised his voice "I'm recording now. What's wrong with posting on YouTube?"


Mr. A who pressured a public official in Chungcheongnam-do Province for an interview with this paper, was found to be working as a head of counseling officer, a key executive at a heresy counseling center in Chungcheongnam-do. Heresy counseling center is a place where people make money through coercive conversion business that force Shincheonji members to convert. 


Mr. A participated in the protest of Jeon Pi Yeon and publicly criticized this paper for pointing out the problem of a coercive conversion. 


This news media recently dealt with the problem of Jeon Pi Yeon which recently engaged in kidnapping, imprisonment and assault in the process of coercive conversion against adult child attending Shincheonji in collusion with the heretical counseling center.


Meanwhile, in 2016, the court rejected the financial application of Mr. Cho, a specialist member of Korean heresy counseling association, who sued the head of the newspaper for false accusation, claiming that Cheonji daily is a Shincheonji newspaper. As a result, the controversy over relationship between this paper and Shincheonji has already been legally settled. The ruling on Cheonji daily and Mr. Cho which appeared in Mr. A's footage was made in 2011, and the court did not determine Cheonji daily as a Shincheonji newspaper at that time.

“Coercive conversion because of being a member of Shincheonji Church in Korea”

Coercive conversion 
because of being a member of 
Shincheonji Church in Korea



What is the reason why the families of the members who attend Shincheonji Church have an antipathy toward Shincheonji?

According to the testimony of a number of victims, the cause can be found in the program materials and lecturers that coercive conversion pastors teach to  the families.

The data that they offer are full of slander and defamation claiming that Shincheonji is a group that causes big problems. Victims who are Shincheonji members pointed out that the swear words and personal aggression comments were far from the Christian spirit of “Love even enemies”.

Because he wants to continue attending Shincheonji Church, the mockery and personal aggression judgments that the victims had to hear left an indelible scar on the victims' hearts. So did Ahn Ho Jun (pseudonym, 35, male, Dal-dong, Nam-gu, Ulsan) and Ji-yeon Park (pseudonym, female, Nam-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City).The following is the full text of the appeals of Mr. Ahn and Ms. Park

◆ “Coercive conversion program conducted at sister's house’

I'm Ahn Ho Jun, 35 years old living in Ulsan. First of all, thank you for your valuable time reading this article. The reason why I am writing an appeal is to let people know what I've experienced in Korea where human rights are guaranteed and freedom of religion is available.

On Feb. 20, 2015, I went to Busan to have dinner with my family. We went to Myeong Ji Dong in Busan to have dinner and slept at my sister's house after the dinner as usual. When I opened my eyes in the morning, my mother came next to me and said "A pastor will come and I want you to listen to what the pastor says for three days."

My mother knew that I practice Shincheonji church farith and heard bad rumors ending up having a bad idea about my faith only because it was Shincheonji. I felt anxious because I guessed it was a coercive conversion program. I said "I'm not going to listen to what the pastor said." and tried to find my cell phone to contact my friend at church. But, I couldn't locate my phone.

The fact I found out later was a pastor who conduct a coercive conversion program in Busan made mother to hide my cell phone and wallet so that I couldn't go outside and couldn't contact anyone outside.

So I was stuck at home and received a coercive conversion program in front of my family members. Pastor A carried out the program showing various slanderous materials about Shincheonji and those materials were enough to make anyone believe Shincheonji as a pseudo-group.

When my family saw that, they thought I was in a pseudo-religion. My family said "The devil is in you. You are out of your mind." getting angry at me. My credibility which I never had any kind of trouble from childhood with my parents collapsed due to Pastor A's program and my parents no longer wanted to listen to me.

After arguing for a while, we couldn't reach any solution. I came back to Ulsan and now I don't go to Busan anymore. The gaze and criticism from my family are unbearable and the anxiety due to a coercive conversion program prevent me from going to Busan.

Please punish Pastor A who gave indelible wounds destroying the trust of my family and making each other enemies only for the purpose of making money so that there will be no victims like me again.

◆ “31 days of confinement at Hwa Sun pension, coercive conversion’”

Greetings to all of you, I am writing to inform the Korean government, the people and the judiciary about the human rights damage due to a coercive conversion program and to appeal for the religious fraud conversion pastors to be legally punished.

Korea is a country under the rule of law that guarantees freedom of religion. However, conversionist who runs conversion program for business are not legally punished. The reason is that they program good families thoroughly in advance, making them to kidnap, detain, force and assault. The conversionist only gives directions. In Feb. 2015, I was also kidnapped and imprisoned for 31 in a motel in Hwa Sun. My cell phone was taken away and had to receive unwanted a coercive conversion program from assistant of church B in Gwang Ju.

At the conversion program place, my parents saw me next to me and the program lasted for 3 hours a day. Assistant C threatened my parents that he would not run the program unless I admit their doctrine so that I had to suffer from domestic violence. My parents met a coercive conversion pastor and heard a false personal attack on Shincheonji ending up my family changed completely.

I hold my family that I would no longer go to Shincheonji church. But, the conversion pastor told my parents that I needed to know more about Presbyterian doctrines. So, they moved the detention place to a studio near B church for another seven days. I received another coercive conversion program from Pastor D of B church. The family who understood and trusted each other has become unreliable since the pastor of B church was involved.

My parents who kidnapped and detained their child after being deceived by the lie of a coercive conversion pastor and I who attend Shincheonji church are not guilty. My heart aches so much when thinking of the grievances of many people who have been hurt by a coercive conversion program that have damaged due to the vicious and sly acts of a coercive conversion pastor.

The media, the Korean government and the judiciary, please reveal the truth about those who are doing conversion program for the purpose of making money. I sincerely ask you to punish religious fraud coercive conversion pastors ASAP, so that human rights in Korea can stand upright and resolve the resentment of the victims.

Believers and unbelievers

 Believers and unbelievers



What are those who believe and those who do not believe according to Jesus? Believers believe and keep the word of God's promise and unbelievers do not believe and do not keep the word of God's promise.

Adam and Eve heard God's promise.

Adam: Hmm... Can I eat this?
Eve: You'll be fine. Adam!

They heard the word but did not obey. As a result, they were destroyed and put into fire hell. Israel from Egypt came to near Canaan. But...

Israelite 1: How can I beat them... We're all going to die!
Israelite 2: It was better to be a slave in Egypt!
Israelite 3: Did you ask me to go to Canaan to kill me?

So Israel died in the wilderness since they didn't believe in God's word and didn't keep the promise. In addition, because physical Israel did not believe and obey the words of the Old Testament prophets, physical Israel was not saved at the time of first coming of Jesus and heaven was taken away from them.

Jesus: Therefore I tell you that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people who will produce its fruit!

You have to keep your promises between people. Can you say who do not keep His promise be a believer? If you trust and keep the word of promise, you will gain heaven and eternal life, and if you do not believe and keep the word of promise, you will be punished in hell. This is the result of a promise with God.

Believer today: what are the promises we have to keep?

What we have to believe today is the prophecy of the New Testament. When this prophecy comes true, Seeing and believing is true belief and this becomes the fulfillment of the promise.

Even though you are a believer, if you don't know the word of the promise in New Testament, if you don't even know what the word says, how can you believe when the word of the promise is fulfilled?

Shincheonji: Revelation has been fulfilled. Come and listen!

Believer 1: What's the Book of Revelation?
Believer 2: Do you really need to know?

In the New Testament, true God, fake God which is Satan, devil are written. The word of God and the word of devil are also written. In the content, what is fulfilled in the future is written. The result of believer and unbeliever which is heaven and hell is written. Eternal life and eternal punishment are written.

So, just saying 'Lord, Lord' does not mean you will enter heaven. Those who do according to God's will can enter heaven.

The bible is not the book of common knowledge but of God's book. What is written in the Bible is not about common sense but about heaven and hell. Those who realizes the word of God will have heaven and eternal life. Those who do not realizes the promised word of God nor do what it says go to hell.

God who promised the Old Testament and came as promised and Jesus who is the promised shepherd came to his people in his country. But they did not accept it and became enemies by persecuting it (John 1:11-14).  This is because they didn't know the word of promise.

Jew 1: That Jesus called himself the Messiah God promised. But I can't believe it.
Jewish 2: I know. He is bluffing saying this Bible, which God wrote through the prophets, is meant to represent himself.
Jewish 3: When did God say that? This is blasphemy!

Therefore, regardless of the physical lineage, whoever believed in Jesus (the name of Jesus) which is born through the God, He promised to make as a child of God.

From this time on, those who are reborn will be God's family and enter heaven. The seed to be reborn is the seed of God. Those who are reborn by the seed of God become a child of God living in heaven as God's family.

Noah, Abraham, Moses, and everyone in the world is guilty of the genes of Adam, the criminal.  And they were with god of evil. However, after Jesus, regardless of the physical lineage, those who are born by God become children of God and saved. The seed(Matthew 13:24, 37) sown by Jesus was harvested, sealed and create a new nation, a new country according to what is promised. This is new heaven and new earth written in Rev. chapter 21 which means the end of shepherds and church members of existing denomination.

Comparing before and after new heaven and new earth, those who believe in it will know where we need to belong to be saved in order to receive heaven and eternal life. When fulfilling Old Testament, New Testament, Noah's and Lot's, the reason they didn't believe in God's promise was because they were born as a gene of sinner so they couldn't reborn only saying 'I believe' which is not fully believing, being outside the Bible.

Pastor 1: Oh... No,  even though I don't know the Bible, wasn't only believing enough?

True believers do not believe in their own doctrines of their denomination, but believe in the word of true God and its promises. Just as the physical Israel did not believe in Jesus at first coming of Jesus, at second coming of Jesus, the corrupted spiritual Israel wouldn't believe the fulfillment of the book of Revelation(Luke 18:8).

At the first coming, it was fulfillment of Old Testament and at second coming it is fulfillment of New Testament. As physical Israel didn't believe the fulfillment of Old Testament, spiritual Israel don't believe the fulfillment of New Testament. If you don't believe, you will be the antagonist just like the first coming.

Religion(Christianity) in today is divided into two. One is God's new nation and new people. The other is corrupted existing denomination. Looking at New Testament, this is the formula and inevitable. Only those who are the seeds of God, those who have be harvested, those who have been sealed, those who do not add or subtract the Book of Revelation, those who belong to God's new nation 12 tribes and those whose name is recorded in the book of life will be saved.

These are those who believe in and keep the New Testament. In John 16:8-11, not believing in Jesus(the one sent by Jesus) is sin. In Rev. 21:8, those who don't believe will go to hell. What we need to believe today is what is fulfilled according to the Book of Revelation. Amen.
