Shincheonji Church said this Bible seminar was held at the request of local pastors.


Chairman Lee, who gave a lecture, said, “The book of Revelation is a book that records the end of one era and the creation of a new era.” he emphasized. In Revelation 22:18-19, it says that if you add to or subtract from the Revelation, you cannot go to heaven and are cursed.


He said, “As prophesied in the Old Testament, Jesus came and sowed the seed, and this seed is the word of God. When Jesus returns, He harvests those who is born with the word of God and are ripened. Those who are harvested are 144,000 of Mt. Zion in Rev. 14.


Then, he added, “Thus, not everyone goes to heaven. but rather, the book of Revelation tells us that heaven and God will come creating the 12 tribes when finding and sealing those born of God’s seed (with the word).






Chairman Lee asked, "Let's pray to God and record the words of Revelation in our hearts. Let's become walking words whether we walk on the road or eat. Let's achieve our goal by truly realizing what God's will is and what we must do  entering the Word and becoming one with God."


Among the local pastors, there was a positive evaluation of Lee's lecture. Pastor Diosdado Tejoso, who attended the seminar, said, “I have learned a lot, and as a pastor, I feel regrettable that I learned a lot of wrong things. Although I am old, I thank and praise God for calling me.


Harold Lecio, a lecturer at the Zion Christian Mission Center in the Philippines, said, “After the Bible seminar, there have been inquiries about follow-up education on the Word of Shincheonji Church of Jesus. Especially, through the special class for pastors who aim to prepare for the ministry of preaching, I will do my best to review their teachings and help them find the true God.”


Meanwhile, Chairman Man Hee Lee, who is also the representative of Heavenly Culture, World Peace, Restoration of Light (HWPL), visited Mindanao Island in the Philippines, where more than 120,000 people died in a 40-year bloody conflict between the government and Muslim forces in January 2014, and reached a dramatic peace agreement through a life-threatening journey.

Overcoming the corona crisis, 'growing bigger'...
Shincheonji Church of Jesus runs without rest this year





▎Held the 39th General Assembly and Passover commemorative service

▎Exponential growth, producing 100,000 graduates last year

▎Year of achieving the goal with single-hearted unity... '100,000 graduation ceremony' this year too

At the general assembly, which was held online, the footsteps and achievements so far were shared through footage containing the major activities of last year.


Last year's keyword was '100,000 graduation ceremony, online seminar, blood donation campaign' 


Shincheonji Church of Jesus continued to grow exponentially last year, producing 106,186 graduates of the mission center. In particular, in contrast to the atmosphere of the church community, which has suffered from a decrease in the number of members after the COVID-19 pandemic, Shincheonji Church of Jesus draw attention from all walks of life due to the number of members has increased significantly.


The increase in the number of members was mainly driven by online seminars and the operation of an online mission center. Shincheonji Church of Jesus’ online seminars, which were released on YouTube last year, including eight seminars by Chairman Man Hee Lee, were broadcast worldwide in 24 languages and recorded a total cumulative view of about 20.98 million.


The enthusiastic response led to the signing of MOUs with pastors at home and abroad. By signing 177 MOUs in Korea and 3,760 overseas (as of the end of December last year), numerous domestic and foreign pastors have entered into gospel exchange agreements with Shincheonji Church of Jesus.


In addition, it is analyzed that after the spread of the COVID-19 the 'online mission center', which has been in full swing, has increased accessibility to the words of Shincheonji Church of Jesus. After the online system transition in 2020, the Online Mission Center, which celebrated its third year last year, opened a total of 3,347 domestic and international classes (1,715 domestic and 1,632 overseas) during last year. This led to the result of 'the largest number of graduates ever', exceeding 100,000. It is evaluated that the scale of the lecture has grown even more by shifting from the existing face-to-face system to a non-face-to-face system and unrestricted time and space.


Last year, 21 Shincheonji Churches of Jesus were newly established in 18 countries around the world, achieving remarkable growth.


In addition, Shincheonji Church of Jesus conducted a large-scale blood donation campaign on two occasions last year, focusing on social contribution activities. As a result, 18,819 people in the first round and 73,807 people in the second round participated in blood donation, achieving the largest number of blood donations in a single institution in the shortest period of time and setting a Guinness World Record and certification by the Korea Record Institute (KRI) for the largest number of blood donations.. And in July of last year, 'We Are One', a volunteer group composed of 90,000 domestic and foreign youths, was launched, and the young people announced their plan to solve national challenges and global crises.


This year, another goal of '100,000 graduation ceremony'... focusing on the education of saints





Shincheonji Church of Jesus is also aiming for '100,000 graduation ceremony' this year. The motto of this year was set as 'the year of achieving the goal with one-hearted unity', and all saints pledged to evangelize with one accord. For this, ministers such as tribe leaders, head instructors, missionary center instructors, and evangelists take the lead in evangelism activities. In addition, the online mission center will be operated as before, but some offline mission centers will also be opened and operated. The goal is to increase more accessibility of people so that anyone can visit and hear the Word directly.


At the same time, they plan to focus on the education of the saints. The Shincheonji Church of Jesus said, "We provide a Bible test every month for all saints, and from the beginning of this year, we prepared 'speech of the entire Revelation' and planned to carry out. With the goal of ‘improving the level of evangelical skills to the level of pastors(priests),’ we will ensure that everyone has the ability to teach the Bible. In addition, we plan to provide Bible education opportunities to more people by expanding its scope, such as expanding to hold Bible seminars at home and abroad and increasing the signing of MOUs with pastors.”


In addition, they plan to expand social contribution activities. In particular, 'We Are One', a youth volunteer group, announced that they are preparing to expand its activities to various fields such as environment, peace, and education this year.


“Need to check the facts through the Bible… Let's become one in the Word." 


Meanwhile, the General Assembly service was also held to commemorate Passover. Chairman Man Hee Lee explained the significance of the Passover, which Shincheonji Church of Jesus celebrates today through his sermon.


Chairman Lee said, “Luke 22:14-20 says, ‘You will not eat the Passover until the Passover is fulfilled in your Father’s kingdom. Jesus made a new prophecy under the guise that the people were saved by eating the meat and putting the blood of the sheep on the door during the time of Moses.


Then, he emphasized the need to realize today's Passover and the Book of Revelation, saying, "This Passover appears again at the time of the Revelation when the Father's kingdom is established."


He also asked religious pastors to confirm the facts about Shincheonji Church of Jesus through the Bible and become one in the Word.


Chairman Lee pointed out, “God fulfills things according to the Bible, so we must believe according to the Bible. We must abandon the idea that you are the only one who is right and that others are heretical. Shincheonji Church of Jesus was created according to the Bible. Even though God has promised this and is fulfilling it today, we must not persecute, not believing it. We have to confirm it based on the Bible."


Finally, he said, “These words are not 'yours' or 'mine', but God's. Let's become one in the word of God.”

New Year's Eve worship presents the motto of “the year of achieving the goal of one-hearted unity”


Chairman Man Hee Lee, “We must realize if you are created according to the Book of Revelation”

Chairman Lee said, “Last year, the 100,000 graduation ceremony was held which was an amazing and unprecedented anywhere in the world. While being persecuted, the 100,000 graduation ceremonies held in Seoul(2019) and Daegu(last year) were done with the help of heaven."

He continued, "This year, we must produce 100,000 graduates again within one year to give glory to God and teach everyone the path of salvation so that they can move forward on that path. This will be recorded in the history of the eternal gospel."


Chairman Lee said at the worship service, "When the Book of Revelation is fulfilled, just as it was done in heaven, the Kingdom of God will be established on earth, and Heaven and God will come to this earth. This is the completion of the Book of Revelation. Hoping for this, let all the saints become more united and do God's work."


In particular, Chairman Lee emphasized, “When the Book of Revelation is fulfilled, we must think of who I am in the Book of Revelation. It says that we couldn't go to heaven if we added to or subtracted took away from Revelation. We must consider whether we have added or subtracted, and whether the Revelation has indeed been created as stated."


Chairman Lee stressed that we become the kingdom and people of God when satisfying three things, △Have you been born with the seed of God and harvested according to the Bible? △Have you sealed with God's seal which is the word with God and has it recorded in your heart? and △Have you been registered at the 12 tribes created at the time of Revelation? 


Chairman Lee said, "From God's point of view, it must be fulfilled as prophesied, and telling you to believe it when it does happen is a new covenant. God comes to the place where we realize the Revelation and know the belonging of God and the belonging of the devil."


Lastly, Chairman Lee said, "God said that when we just do, we can do it. So I do it with courage. Let's do things that bring God's glory and Shincheonji's glory."

We will plan and carry out more wonderful and beautiful volunteer services so that we can have a good influence not only in Korea but also abroad."


General manager Nam-seon Cho said, "I was surprised to see that 70,000 people donated blood in three months, and it felt amazing. I thought about what this really means and what their driving force is. At the end of COVID-19, the world is in a difficult situation due to lack of blood. If it wasn't for WeAreOne, blood recipient could be in a difficult situation. The 70,000 blood donations served as an opportunity to save the lives of many blood recipients in Korea.

Following the first group blood donation of the Shincheonji Church of Jesus in April, through the blood donation campaign of 70,000 people, we experienced practical help. I feel grateful for your help. It was not an easy journey, but I realized that it was a necessary campaign for Korea. Once again, I would like to express my gratitude to the young members of WeAreOne across the country.
