Shincheonji, The Reason Why One Must Know the Bible, the Word of God

 Shincheonji, The Reason Why One Must Know the Bible, the Word of God

God said in Hosea 2:19-20 that He would betroth us (the chosen people).

And, in Jeremiah 31:32, God said He became a husband to Israel to lead them out of Egypt, 

and made a covenant with them.

In Mathew 22, Jesus referred to himself as a bridegroom at a wedding banquet. 

And in Matthew 25, Jesus referred saints as the bride and he said that he would come as a bridegroom. 

And in Revelation 19, Jesus said that there would be a wedding of the Lamb. This is a marriage where the spirits (of the flesh) become one with the spirits.

Let me tell you a story as an example. A young man promised a young woman that he would marry her. 

So, he sent a letter to the woman to tell her when, where and what time to have a wedding. 

The woman received that letter from the messenger,

(Bride is receiving the letter)

but she left in her room since she couldn't read it.

The bridegroom who sent the letter about the wedding went to that place on that day and at that time as promised in the letter, 

but the bride was not there. 

He waited until dark for the bride, but she didn't come. Thus, the bridegroom left thinking that she gave up on the marriage.

One day, the woman was curious about the letter that se received from the messenger, 

and asked someone who was literate to read the letter for her. 

The letter was from the man who promised to marry her, 

and the date, place and time were written. 

However, the date and time had already passed. 

This woman didn't know how to read, she didn't care, and she didn't want to expose her ignorance to others. So, she couldn't meet the bridegroom.

If she had shown the letter to someone and asked for its meaning as soon as she received it, 

she could have known about the promised and got married. 

The New Testament is 

the letter of promised that Jesus, the bridegroom from the heaven, have to us, the brides on the earth.

(But)

Even though you don't know the meaning of the New Testament which is the letter from Jesus, if you don't even bother to ask others since you don't want to expose your ignorance,

then you may not be able to meet the bridegroom, Jesus when he comes.

So, learning the Word of the New Testament which is the letter from the heaven is the requirement to meet, Jesus, the bridegroom at the Second Coming. 

Therefore, let us learn the Word of the New Testament.
