"I master the book of Revelation. When I came to Shincheonji, I realized the book of Revelation, which I had not been taught anywhere in the seminary or church."
Tens of thousands of believers who had suffered from a lack of faith because they did not know the Bible flocked to Shincheonji this year without fail, and they poured out these confessions at the graduation ceremony.
Shincheonji Church of Jesus Tabernacle of Witness Temple (General President Lee Man-hee, hereinafter referred to as Shincheonji Church of Jesus) held the '116th Zion Christian Mission Center Graduation Ceremony' at Shincheonji Cheongju Church on the 2nd and announced that it produced 59,192 graduates. They are regarded as 'believers who have mastered the full authority of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation'.
The Zion Christian Mission Center systematically teaches the will of God and the flow of the Bible with a focus on prophecy and fulfillment in the entirety of the Bible. To complete, you must complete all three stages of elementary, middle, and high school courses and score 90 points or higher in the comprehensive exam.
President Lee Man-hee, who took the podium, said, "It is written that if you add or subtract from the words of the Bible, you cannot enter the kingdom of heaven (Revelation 22:18~19)," and said, "We, the Shincheonji Church of Jesus, master the book of Revelation." He continued, “If you want to know, you have to come to Shincheonji and learn.”
He also said, "There are too many people who say they believe in Jesus but do not follow the Bible completely," and urged them to “check for themselves whether they are having true faith based on the Bible without relying on the authority of the church.”
This time, the persecution, slander, and interference with the Shincheonji Church of Jesus were even more severe, but the number of graduates reached 60,000. In particular, the number of pastoral graduates has steadily increased, and the cumulative number of pastoral graduates has exceeded 13,500 in the past four years.
The representative graduation speech was also presented by former pastor Oh Seon-kyung, which attracted attention. He said, "I established a total of three churches and was proud to be a true believer who devoted the life given to me for the kingdom of the Lord and glory," he said, “but I always had a big burden in my heart that I could not understand the book of Revelation. Even after reading the Bible more than 30 times, I couldn't find the answer, so I was ashamed of the church members and eventually quit my ministry.”
However, he confessed, "On the day of the first class at Zion Christian Mission Center, my heart opened wide within an hour," and "The only words that came out in each class were the truth and truth based on the Bible." He then said with a daunted expression, "Now I have mastered the Book of Revelation!" I can now shout confidently."
He also made a request to pastors. He said, "At this time when the secret of the book of Revelation is opened, the role of the pastor who rules God's flock is to lead the entrusted saints to heaven." Pastors should also bow down before the word and join hands with the saints to become those who have scored 100 points in the Bible test."
Not only pastors but also ordinary graduates said that they were moved by the words that preached the Bible in a reasonable way.
Park Sang-joon (44, male), who has been a believer in the Presbyterian Church for more than 40 years, confessed, "I used to watch documentaries that slandered Shincheonji and sniped at Shincheonji to people," and "I followed my wife to the Zion Christian Mission Center, and I realized that Shincheonji is a place where the Bible teaches."
Ligia Monteiro (19, female, Netherlands), who took a 16-hour flight to participate in the graduation ceremony, said, "Shincheonji Church explained each verse of the Bible based on the Bible, not its own thoughts," and “This is the biggest difference from the existing church.”
Tan Young-jin, president of the Zion Christian Mission Center, emphasized, "The number of people who have been renewed through the word continues to increase despite severe misunderstandings and prejudices," and emphasized that "this is proof that God is with us." He also said, "The graduates are people who have realized the reality of the Bible that even pastors have not learned," and “An era of faith that has been transformed into truth rather than knowledge is opening.”
Meanwhile, the completion ceremony held on this day was held under the theme of 'Love, Blessings, and Light Illuminating the World'. More than 20,000 graduates filled the seats inside and outside Shincheonji Cheongju Church, and due to the limited space, the rest of the graduates were scattered to Shincheonji Church of Jesus at home and abroad to participate online, adding to the enthusiasm of the celebration.
