The Spirit of Truth- AhnSahngHong!

So far everything in the Bible testifies that Jehovah and Jesus are one God. Let's see also through the Bible who is the stone that causes men to stumble and a rock that makes them fall.

Isaiah 8:13-The LORD Almighty is the one you are to regard as holy, he is the one you are to fear, he is the one you are to dread, and he will be a sanctuary; but for both houses of Israel he will be a stone that causes men to stumble and a rock that makes them fall. And for the people of Jerusalem he will be a trap and a snare.

Here the Bible says that Jehovah will be a stone that causes men to stumble and a rock that makes them fall. This is a prophecy of Jehovah becoming a stumbling block for those who do not truly believe in God and the Bible. Jehovah is the only one who can fulfill this prophecy, then let's see it's fulfillment.

Acts 4:11-He is " 'the stone you builders rejected, which has become the capstone.

This verse is about Jesus being the stone that was rejected.

1 Peter 2:7- Now to you who believe, this stone is precious. But to those who do not believe, "The stone the builders rejected has become the capstone and, "A stone that causes men to stumble and a rock that makes them fall." They stumble because they disobey the message—which is also what they were destined for.

This verse testifies Jesus is the stone that makes men stumble and a rock that causes them to fall. These verses further show us that the entire Bible testify that the Trinity is true. May all thanks be to our Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother for all understanding of Their words.

My last few posts were describing the trinity, specifically how Jehovah and Jesus are one God. In this post I will continue to show through the Bible that Jehovah and Jesus are one by the title they were given.

Isaiah 44:6- This is what the LORD says—Israel's King and Redeemer, the LORD Almighty: I am the first and I am the last; apart from me there is no God.

Jehovah says he is the only God and that he is the first and the last, let's also see in the New Testament.

Revelation 22:12- Behold, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.

Here Jesus says he is the first and the last...then this means there is contradiction in the Bible? Absolutely not, this confirms that Jesus and Jehovah are one God. Thanks to our Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother, we can clearly understand the Bible. My next post will highlight more verses that emphasize Jehovah and Jesus are one.

My last post showed the relationship between Jehovah and Jesus. The Bible testifies that Jesus and Jehovah by very nature are one God. Jesus is not less than Jehovah nor is Jehovah less than Jesus. Christ Ahnsahnghong also showed us through the Bible that we can understand more about Jesus and Jehovah through the creation.

Isaiah 44:24- This is what the LORD says— your Redeemer, who formed you in the womb: I am the LORD, who has made all things, who alone stretched out the heavens, who spread out the earth by myself.

Jehovah says that he created all things by himself but let's see another verse that accounts for the creation.

Colossians 1:15- He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him.

Now this verse says that Jesus created all things. The Bible says that there are two creators, Jesus and Jehovah, then there should be two of everything. Since we know there is only one of everything, we can see that Jehovah created everything and so did Jesus because they are one God.

Our Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother allowed us to understand the truth in the Bible, may all thanks be to them. In my next post we will see through the Bible about Jesus and Jehovah through the titles they hold.

In my previous post I showed the prophecy in Isaiah that spoke of Jehovah coming as a child. The one who fulfilled this prophecy was Jesus Christ, then this means that Jehovah and Jesus are one but let's confirm through the Bible

Phillipians 2:5- Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death—even death on a cross!

This verse testifies that Jesus' very nature is that of God, Jehovah. No one can the very nature of another, this means Jesus and Jehovah are one. The Bible even testifies he humbled himself and took the likeness of a man.

Romans 9:5- Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them is traced the human ancestry of Christ, who is God over all, forever praised! Amen.

The Bible unmistakingly describes Jesus as God the Father is this verse. How can we doubt Jesus and Jehovah are one? In my next post we will see the relationship between Jesus and Jehovah through the creation and their titles. Thanks to our Elohim God Ahnsahnghong and Mother for their gift of eternal life!

Most people have heard of the word Trinity before, this refers the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit being one God. Many Christians believe this to be true and some don't, either way we have to see whether this is true through the Bible.

Isaiah 9:6- For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

This verse in Isaiah testifies that in the future, Jehovah the Father will come as a male child to the earth. At this time Jehovah is the only Mighty God and Everlasting Father, however who fulfilled this prophesy?

We know that Jesus came to this earth as a child and he is our Everlasting Father and Mighty God.

Through my next post I will show how the Bible testifies that Jesus and Jehovah are one God. Thanks to the grace of our Elohim God Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother for this truth.

Everyone very easily believes that Christ will come again on the clouds, however, this is because we forget one verse.

Matthew 13:34- Jesus spoke all these things to the crowd in parables; he did not say anything to them without using a parable.

Acts 1:11- Men of Galilee," they said, "why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven.

It is very clear that Jesus was taken up in the flesh then he should return in the flesh. We must understand what the parable of clouds represents.

Jude 1:12- These men are blemishes at your love feasts, eating with you without the slightest qualm—shepherds who feed only themselves. They are clouds without rain, blown along by the wind; autumn trees, without fruit and uprooted—twice dead.

Proverbs 25:14- Like clouds and wind without rain is a man who boasts of gifts he does not give.

Both of these verses compare clouds to men, when Christ comes a second time on the clouds he should come as a man according to the Bible.

Hebrews 12:1- Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.

Here the Bible compares a cloud to witnesses but obviously witnesses are not made of water molecules. This verse also testifies that a cloud represents people, flesh.

Thanks to Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother for allowing us to have this understanding.

Everyone who believes in the Bible knows that Christ will come a second time however, many people don't understand what will happen when he comes.

Matthew 24:3- As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately. "Tell us," they said, "when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?"

The Apostles are clearly asking Jesus about two events in this verse, first his coming and second the end of the age.

Matthew 24:30-At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great glory. 31And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.

This verse testifies Jesus will come a second time on the clouds to GATHER THE ELECT.

2Thessalonians 1:6- God is just: He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as well. This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven in blazing fire with his powerful angels. He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.

In this verse, Jesus will return in blazing fire to bring punishment, can these two events be the same?

Of course not, then which should occur first? Jesus brings fire, punishment, and judgment or he gathers the elect? Obviously he must gather the elect first however, in my next post we will see through the Bible why Jesus must come on the clouds.

Thanks to our Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother for revealing all the mysteries contained in their words.

Many people I've met recently, including my friends have so much trouble understanding Christ Ahnsahnghong simply for the fact that they do not understand that Jesus testified he will come a second time.

Hebrews 9:28- so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.

Here the Bible says Jesus has to APPEAR a second time to bring salvation. Then the only way God can say a second time is if it is conjunction with the first, meaning he will come the same way in the flesh a second time.

Revelation 3:12- Him who overcomes I will make a pillar in the temple of my God. Never again will he leave it. I will write on him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God; and I will also write on him my new name. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

Jesus he will appear with a new name in the last age prophesied in Revelation. Then we must understand that the Bible testifies the one who will bring salvation. Then Jesus must come again with a different name and restore salvation through the Passover.

This new name is Christ Ahnsahnghong who came with our Heavenly Mother and established the Church of God World Mission Society for the children to receive eternal life.

However many people argue that when Jesus comes again he will bring destruction and judgment. In my next post we will see what the Bible says.

Even though the entire Bible testifies about our Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong, many people still fail to accept him as the Savior. However, if we take a look at Jesus Christ, people back then treated this situation exactly the same way.

John 5:45- But do not think I will accuse you before the Father. Your accuser is Moses, on whom your hopes are set. If you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote about me. But since you do not believe what he wrote, how are you going to believe what I say?

Here Jesus testifies that the high priests and teachers of the Law did not actually believe in the Old Testament because if they did, they would have accepted Jesus as their Savior.

John 15:18--If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you. Remember the words I spoke to you: 'No servant is greater than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also. They will treat you this way because of my name, for they do not
know the One who sent me.

Jesus also lets us know that the people at this time didn't know God the Father Jehovah who sent Jesus. Even though they dedicated their lives to faith in Jehovah, they neither knew Him or believed His words in the Bible.

This is a grave error many people may make if they do not take God's word seriously or if they do not know Jesus in the Bible. We cannot base our faith on who people tell us Jesus is or what the Bible may be because the Bible is truth and Jesus has come a second time to bring us salvation. Unless we fully believe in the Bible and we know Jesus according to the Bible, we are bound to make the same mistake as those who crucified their own savior.

Our Savior is Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother who are testified in the Bible and were prophesied to come by Jesus Christ. Let's believe in the true Savior in this age.

John 17:3- Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.

According to the Bible the only way to receive eternal life is by knowing true God. No matter what we do, without recognizing true God and trying to receive His blessing, we cannot enter the kingdom of heaven. Then how can we recognize God. I mean everyone knows about God and many many people claim to believe in Him. Then why did Jesus mention "true" God instead of just God. This is because people including many christians are misguided into worshipping false gods.

How can we find true God?

John 5:39- You diligently study the Scriptures because you think that by them you possess eternal life. These are the Scriptures that testify about me, yet you refuse to come to me to have life.

Jesus says that these Scriptures, meaning the Old Testament testify about him. This way we can understand that only in the Bible can true God be found.

Luke 24:25- He said to them, "How foolish you are, and how slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken! Did not the Christ have to suffer these things and then enter his glory?" And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself.

Jesus emphasized that the Bible testified about him, he did not prove himself through miracles this time but solely through the Bible. However, now we have the Old and New Testaments which completely testify about Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother!

I've noticed in my past few years how convenient and how much the internet has grown. We have access to information from every corner of the earth about everything known to man at our fingertips. I am thoroughly impressed by the internet, however, the one piece of information that I know I cannot find on the internet is the identity of the Savior.

I read an article about Jesus on wikipedia which was full of information but did not prove he was the Savior or God in the flesh. It only suggested that that may be what most Christians believe.

I've actually looked up Jesus Christ on many websites and in many history books but they all say the samething. He is an important figure in many religions who some people believe to be
God, to some a prophet, to some a rebel, and to others a fictional character. In the end nothing could prove that he is or isn't God and our Savior.

I challenge anyone to think about this when they decide to type Christ Ahnsahnghong in Google or Yahoo. Ask yourself if you can trust a website whether written by scholars or a 12 year old kid to tell you who God is.

God has always been and always will be in the Bible. If anyone really wants to know about Christ Ahnsahnghong or Heavenly Mother, check the Bible because they wrote it and it's all about Them.

Many people believe the bride to be the church in the Bible. Christ Ahnsahnghong clearly testified that the bride is the not the church or God's children so that we would not be mistaken.

Matthew 9:14- Then John's disciples came and asked him, "How is it that we and the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not fast?" Jesus answered, "How can the guests of the bridegroom mourn while he is with them? The time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.

This verse testifies that the disciples, God's children are the guests of the bridegroom, not his bride.

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. Fine linen, bright and clean, was given her to wear." (Fine linen stands for the righteous acts of the saints.)
Then the angel said to me, "Write: 'Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb!' " And he added, "These are the true words of God."

This verse also testifies that the ones who are blessed (us) are invited to the wedding but we are not the bride. This is also a prophecy talking about the future and it says the bride has made herself ready. If we are the bride, why weren't God's people ready 2,ooo years ago? After all, who can say he is more ready than Apostle Paul or Peter? No one is which is why this bride can not be any mere human but God our Heavenly Mother.

Our Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother revealed to us every truth in the Bible, my eternal thanks be to Them!

One verse that always amazes me is Romans 1:19

Romans 1:19- since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse

Everything God made on this earth is to show us about God's nature. Even more so, in everything we see, we can see God's will and purpose.

Revelations 4:11- "You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they were created and have their being."

One thing that most creatures have in common is the Family System, all animals, plants birds, and fish have the same family system which consists of father, mother and children.

Earthly Family

Father + Mother = Children

Heavenly Family

Father God + Mother God = Children of God

Then if you truly believe in God and the Bible, you cannot deny that God made the earthly family system to reflect the Heavenly Family. In every family, the mother gives life to the children. In the same way our Heavenly Mother gives the children of God eternal life. Thanks to our Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother for teaching us all the truth and giving us eternal life.

The whole Bible was written to lead us to God our Savior. I would like to share that even Jesus prophesied about our Heavenly Mother coming to bring us eternal life.

John 6:39- "And this is the will of him who sent me, that I shall lose none of all that he has given me, but raise them up at the last day. 40For my Father's will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day."

41At this the Jews began to grumble about him because he said, "I am the bread that came down from heaven." 42They said, "Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How can he now say, 'I came down from heaven'?"

43"Stop grumbling among yourselves," Jesus answered. 44"No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him, and I will raise him up at the last day.



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



So many times our Heavenly Father emphasized that he wants to give us eternal life and raise us up, but why did he always say the last day? Jesus is not God? Of course he is but then why did he have to wait to the last day? Let's take a look at Revelations and see what Jesus was waiting for in the last day.



Revelations 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.



Clearly Jesus was waiting for the last day when he could return a second time because his bride, our Mother would be ready in the last day. Our Heavenly Father came a second time, Christ Ahnsahnghong with our Heavenly Mother to restore our eternal life!

In my previous 2 posts I showed a couple verses that testify about our Heavenly Mother Jerusalem, the female image of God.

So far we saw through Genesis that God has a female image and through Revelations that this female image is the Bride of Second Coming Christ who will come down from heaven to give us the water of life (eternal life). Let’s confirm through one more verse as to whom the female image of God is to us.

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

This verse testifies that the female image of God, the Bride of 2nd Coming Christ is our Heavenly Mother who came in the flesh to give us the water of life.

Through the Bible how we find out how to receive the water of life, eternal life, from our Heavenly Mother? Thanks be to our Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother Jerusalem for giving us understanding of Their words.

As a continuation of my last post, I would like to speak a little more about our Heavenly Mother who is testified in the Bible.

The verses in my previous post testified that there is a female image of God. In order to understand who she is and why she is so important, lets take a look at Revelations.

Revelations 22:17- “The Spirit and the bride say, "Come!" And let him who hears say, "Come!" Whoever is thirsty, let him come; and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of life.”

Here the Holy Spirit and the bride are offering the water of life which is eternal life (John 4:14). The only one who can give us eternal life is God Almighty. Then what does this mean?

This verse testifies that the Holy Spirit and the bride are both God since they are giving the water of life.

Why is the bride not the church in this context?

First of all, the church nor the people inside can offer eternal life.

Second, the verse previous to this says “I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star." Jesus is testifying to the church, then this bride CANNOT be the church.

Third, Revelations 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." 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.”http://digg.com/tools/diggthis.js

All of us who believe in God know that God is our Father. No one ever denies the male image of God but have you ever heard of the female image of God. Now I know you’re thinking that God doesn’t have an image male or female but let’s see.

Matthew 6:9- “This, then, is how you should pray: ‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name,”

Jesus Christ spoke these words and established this relationship with God, which God is our Father and we are the children. Let’s see another verse that shows from the beginning, before we existed that God was already male and female.

Genesis 1:26- “Then God said, ‘Let us make man in our image, in our likeness,’”

Why is God speaking in plural?

Genesis 1:27- “So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.”

We were created male and female in God’s image, then what is God’s image? Clearly male and female. If God had no sex and we were created in the image of God, human beings would have no sex, if God were male then we would all be male. However, God’s image can be understood as male and female because we were made in God’s image, male and female.

So we can see that God speaks in the plural form because there is a male image of God which we call Father but there is also a female image of God. Then what do we call the female image of God and why is She important?

In the next post we will go through the Bible to understand who the female image of God is to us and why is it important that we know she exists. Thanks to Christ Ahnsahnghong for revealing this perfect truth to us.http://digg.com/tools/diggthis.js

Many people have used the verse Colossians 2:16 to prove that they do not have to observe any Feasts of God (Sabbath, Passover, Unleavened Bread, etc.). Let’s take a look at this verse to get an idea of why people would think that.

Colossians 2:16- “Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ.”

Now it is very easy to take this verse and say that we don’t have to keep any of God’s feasts if you don’t understand the context of this verse and also the second sentence of this verse.

At this time, Apostle Paul was speaking to Christians in Colosse. Colosse is located in present day Turkey and at the time, the Christians there were being persecuted because the popular beliefs at this time were influencing Christ’s teachings. Eastern mysticism and asceticism (belief that abstinence from certain physical activities such as eating or drinking will allow some sort of mind-body transformation) were the main philosophies that were intruding on Christ’s teachings.

Apostle Paul was not telling the Church of God in Colosse to stop keeping God’s feasts, he was telling the church not to let other people judge them because they keep God’s feasts.
Let’s confirm through the Bible. We have to see if Paul was really instructing the people not to keep God’s feasts.

Acts 17:2- “As his custom was, Paul went into the synagogue, and on three Sabbath days he reasoned with them from the Scriptures,”

Paul’s custom was to keep the Sabbath, he was in Thessalonica at this time for only three weeks so he was at this synagogue for only three weeks. Let’s see another verse for confirmation.
Acts 18:4- “Every Sabbath he reasoned in the synagogue, trying to persuade Jews and Greeks.”
Clearly keeping the Sabbath was a custom of Apostle Paul. However, was it just Apostle Paul’s custom?

Luke 4:16- “He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. And he stood up to read. The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him.”

Jesus Christ’s very own custom was to keep the Sabbath. Christ came to show us the example of how to worship God (John 13:15). Then we should in fact keep the Sabbath day because it God’s true day of worship.

Jesus kept the Sabbath 2,000 years ago, our Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong also kept the Sabbath, and now our Heavenly Mother continues to keep the Sabbath as an example for us.

Colossians 2:16 says that these feasts are a shadow of the things to come and that the reality is found in Christ. Jesus Christ kept the Sabbath and our Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong also kept the Sabbath. Then we must follow Christ who is the reality. Thanks to Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother for showing us all the truth in the Bible and giving us understanding.

As a result of my last post, I noticed many people emailing me saying that Jesus abolished the law and that we don’t have to keep the Sabbath day any more. It is only for Jewish people. If these statements are in fact true, where should we find the evidence? You guessed right, let’s go to the Bible.

Matthew 5:17- “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.”

Clearly Jesus himself says that he didn’t come to abolish anything in the Old Testament until heaven and earth disappear. Obviously the heavens and the earth have not disappeared, then nothing in the Old Testament should be disregarded. However, the key is understanding that Jesus came to fulfill everything in the Old Testament. The Law still exists but Jesus fulfilled it, let’s understand why he did so.

Hebrews 7:11- “If perfection could have been attained through the Levitical priesthood (for on the basis of it the law was given to the people), why was there still a need for another priest to come--one in the order of Melchizedek, not in the order of Aaron? For when there is a change of the priesthood, there must also be a change of the law."

According to the Bible, perfection could not be attained through the Levitical priesthood (Old Testament Law) so another priest had to come in the order of Melchizedek who was Jesus (Hebrews 6:20). Through the Old Testament Law, the people couldn’t attain perfection because of the difficulty of fulfilling all the requirements.

Now that we know Jesus didn’t abolish the Sabbath but actually came to fulfill it and give us a way to attain perfection, let’s see how we are to keep it.

John 4:23- “Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.”

Jesus tells us that we should worship God in spirit and in truth, sounds pretty simple right? Then how can we worship God in spirit and in truth? Since Jesus gave us the command, we should see by his example.

Luke 4:16- “He went to Nazareth where he had been brought up, on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. And he stood up to read. The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. Unrolling it, he fond the place where it is written:”

This verse shows that Jesus’ custom was going to the synagogue (church) on the Sabbath day. Then is order to worship in truth, he worshipped God on the true day of worship, the Sabbath. Then how can we worship in spirit, according to this, all he did was read the Bible. Let’s get more confirmation.

Matthew 4:4- “ Jesus answered, ‘It is written: ‘Man does not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’’”

We can see that Jesus compares physical food to the word of God which is spiritual food. God’s word is spirit and by reading and listening to it in church on the Sabbath day, we can worship God in spirit.

I thank our heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong because he established Zion, the Church of God World Mission Society so that we can have a place to worship God in Spirit and Truth. Our Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother allow us to come to Zion so we can continue to hear God’s word and grow stronger in faith everyday.http://digg.com/tools/diggthis.js

If I were to ask you what is the day we should worship God, you’d probably say one of two things; Sunday or any day. Hey, why not? I would like to propose a hypothetical question, if God said we should worship him on a Wednesday or Monday, what would you do? Of course we would go if God said. Then let’s confirm through the Bible the day of worship.

Throughout this blog please keep this verse in mind-

Revelations 22:18- "I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book. And if anyone takes words away from this book of prophecy, God will take away from him his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book."

Now let’ see what God said in the beginning.

Genesis 2:2- “By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work. And God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done.”

On the seventh day, God rested, blessed it and made it holy. God did this because he needs rest, blessings or holiness? Of course not! We are the ones who need all three of these so God made the seventh day for us to receive rest, blessings, and holiness. These things are very important for us and are necessary for us to receive salvation. They are so important that God put the seventh day in the Ten Commandments.

Exodus 20:8- “Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant, nor your animals, nor the alien within your gates. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.”

In this verse which is the fourth commandment, God again mentions the seventh day of the week and also says that He rested, blessed it, and made it holy. However, in this verse God calls the seventh day the Sabbath.

Everyone already knows how important the Ten Commandments are and accepts them as a part of basic Christian teachings. If you take a look at the other commandments, they all start with “You shall” but verse eight starts with “Remember”. Even though the Ten Commandments are very important God sets the fourth commandment apart by saying “remember”. God says to remember this day because He doesn’t want us to forget. Then we should see why God didn’t just say “you shall”, in order to do this we must see what day of the week is the Sabbath, the seventh day. Also by understanding what day is seventh day, we can receive rest, blessings, and holiness from God.

Let’s check the dictionary.

Sat·ur·day Pronunciation: \'sa-tər-(ˌ)dā, -dē\ Function: noun Etymology: Middle English saterday, from Old English sæterndæg (akin to OldFrisian sāterdei), from Latin Saturnus Saturn + Old English dæg day Date: before 12th century
: the seventh day of the week
— Sat·ur·days \-dēz, -(ˌ)dāz\ adverb

1Sun·day Pronunciation: \'sən-(ˌ)dā, -dē\ Function: noun Etymology: Middle English, from Old English sunnandæg (akin to Old High German sunnūntag), from sunne sun + dæg day Date: before 12th century
: the first day of the week.

These definitions came from Merriam-Webster’s, you can check for yourself. The only problem is that man made the dictionary, of which there are many versions. This blog is not about the dictionary, but the Bible is the main concern here. Then let’s see according to the Bible what day of the week is the seventh day, Sabbath.

If we think about one of the two most well known Christian holidays, Easter, we know that it is always celebrated on a Sunday. Easter is the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus, so we always celebrate Jesus’ resurrection on Sunday.

Mark 16:9- “Jesus rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had driven seven demons.”

This verse is about the Resurrection which we always celebrate on Sunday but this verse says Jesus rose on the first day of the week. We can clearly see that Sunday and the first day of the week are the same. Then if Sunday is the first day, then automatically we know Saturday must be the seventh day, Sabbath. Let’s confirm through one more verse.

Mark 16:1- “When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they might go to anoint Jesus’ body. Very early on the first day of the week,”

This verse confirms that the Sabbath and Sunday cannot be the same, even in the New Testament God’s Sabbath and Sunday are two different days. Then why do so many people keep Sunday worship?

John 8:47- ”He Who belongs to God hears what God says. The reason you do not hear is that you do not belong to God.”

Some people hear what God says so they belong to God, like those who understand that God’s day of worship is Saturday, Sabbath. Some people continue to keep Sunday because they do not belong to God. What about faith? Won’t we be saved because we believe in Jesus and have faith in him regardless of the day of worship?

Matthew 7:21- “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’ Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’”

Clearly this verse is describing people who believe in Jesus and have the faith to perform all kinds of miracles in his name. On judgment day, however, Jesus will tell them I never knew you, away from me you evildoers. Why? This is because despite their great faith in God, they didn’t do his will which we saw is Saturday, Sabbath. So no matter how much faith we have, we still have to be very careful in doing His will correctly.

I want to give all thanks, honor and praise to our Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother for restoring this truth to us. Thanks to Christ Ahnsahnghong, we are able to recognize God’s will for our salvation. Also because of Christ Ahnsahnghong, we are able to receive God’s rest, blessing, and holiness on the Sabbath day.

Recently I was thinking about God’s laws in the Bible. There is so much dispute about God’s laws. Some people strictly try to follow the Old Testament Law, others loosely adhere to the New Testament, others say that the Law was abolished and we don’t need to follow them anymore. Actually, very recently our Heavenly Father Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother revealed the purpose of the Law and the importance of keeping it. Thanks to our Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong, we can see clearly how important God’s Laws are according to the Bible.

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 men, because all sinned for before the law was given, sin was in the world."

But sin is not taken into account when there is no law. In the same way Adam sinned, all men have sinned. Adam and Eve disobeyed God and ate from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, so we know we committed the same sin. Sin is not taken into account when there is no law. The law reveals our sins.

Romans 7:7- "What shall we say, then? Is the law sin? Certainly not! Indeed I would not have known what sin was except through the law."

The law allows us to fully understand our sins. Why did God make the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil?

Genesis 2:16- "And the Lord God commanded the man, "You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; but you must not eat tree of knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die.""

Through this law, what was exposed?

Genesis 3:1- "Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, "Did God really say, 'You must not eat from any tree in the garden'?"

This is when the serpent tempted Eve and caused her to eat from the forbidden tree. When God asked Adam what he had done, he blamed Eve and Eve blamed the serpent. Then who is the one that originated sin? The serpent was exposed through this but let's see the reason for God giving the law.

Hebrews 10:1- "The law is only a shadow of the good things that are
coming--not the realities themselves."

If there is a shadow, there should be a reality. Let's first understand the shadow.

Deuteronomy 19:1- "When the Lord your God has destroyed the nations whose land he is giving you, and when you have driven them out and settled in their towns and houses, then set aside for yourselves three cities centrally located in the land the Lord your God is giving you to possess. Build roads to them and divide into three parts the land the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance, so that anyone who kills a man may flee there. This is the rule concerning the man who kills another and flees there to save his life--one who kills his neighbor unintentionally, without malice or aforethought....19:11- But if a man hates his neighbor and lies in wait for him, assaults and kills him, and then flees to one of these cities, the elders of his town shall send for him, brings him back from the city, and hand him over to the avenger of blood to die."

This verse is concerning two types of people, unintentional murderers and intentional murderers. This law is a shadow, let's look for the reality.

John 1:17- "For the law came through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ."

In Christ we can find the reality. Then in my next post, we can see the reality of the law through Christ and understand God's true love. Thanks to Heavenly Father Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother for this understanding.

Two days ago I invited a friend to study the Bible with me at the Church of God World Mission Society. Even though I insisted, he refused to come saying the he believes in God and prays to Jesus so he doesn’t need to study the Bible. In hopes he would change his mind, I showed him why it’s so important to study the Bible. Actually the Bible is a guide for our salvation, it guides us to the Savior.

John 5:39- “diligently study the Scriptures because you think that by them you possess eternal life. These are the Scriptures that testify about me, yet you refuse to come to me to have life.”

At this time, Jesus was speaking to the teachers and experts of the Law. He spoke to the Pharisees and Sadducees because they memorized the Scriptures front to back. Just to be clear, at this time the Jewish people only had the Old Testament, the 39 books from Genesis to Malachi.

So Jesus stated that these experts in the Law study all of the Old Testament but refuse to come to the one whom it testifies. Let’s confirm that the Old Testament testifies about Jesus.

Luke 24:13- “Now that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem. They were talking with each other about everything that had happened. As they talked and discussed these things with each other, Jesus himself came up and walked along with them; but they were kept from recognizing him.
He asked them, "What are you discussing together as you walk along?" They stood still, their faces downcast. One of them, named Cleopas, asked him, "Are you only a visitor to Jerusalem and do not know the things that have happened there in these days?"
"What things?" he asked. "About Jesus of Nazareth," they replied. "He was a prophet, powerful in word and deed before God and all the people. The chief priests and our rulers handed him over to be sentenced to death, and they crucified him; but we had hoped that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel. And what is more, it is the third day since all this took place.

In this verse, two of Jesus’ disciples were walking away from Jerusalem and Jesus appeared but he didn’t let them recognize him. He asked them what had happened in Jerusalem in order to test them.

When they answered, they said Jesus was a prophet but we know very well Jesus is God Almighty. How could they say he was just a prophet? Also, they said we HAD hoped that he was the Redeemer, meaning they no longer had any hope or faith in him. This was only three days after he was crucified. Even though Jesus spent three years with them teaching them all the truth and showing them miracles, they lost all faith in only three days, let’s see why.

Luke 24:25- “He said to them, "How foolish you are, and how slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken! Did not the Christ have to suffer these things and then enter his glory?" And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself.”

Clearly Bible testified about the Savior because Jesus used it to testify about himself. In the following post we will see also how the Apostles testified the Savior. I give all thanks to our Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother for giving us understanding of their words.

In my last post, we saw through the Bible that the Father Jehovah and the Son Jesus are the same. Now through the grace of Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong, let’s see through the Bible that the Father Jehovah and the Holy Spirit are one and the same.

1 Corinthians 2:10- “God has revealed it to us by his Spirit. The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the man's spirit within him? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.”

The Spirit is clearly the Holy Spirit so we can see that God Jehovah and the Holy Spirit are the same.

Now let’s confirm that Jesus is the Holy Spirit.

Isaiah 9:6- “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”

John 14:26- “But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.”

In Isaiah, in the prophesy that Jesus fulfills, we can see that he is given the title Wonderful Counselor. However, in the John we can see that the Counselor is the Holy Spirit meaning, Jesus and the Holy Spirit are the same.

Now we can see fully the truth of the Trinity through the Bible, that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are the same. This is all thanks to our Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong who is Second Coming Christ, the Holy Spirit.

Now a days almost all Christians say that they believe in the Trinity. This is the belief that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are the same. However, of all the people I’ve met who say they believe in the Trinity, no one could explain it through the Bible. When I came to the Church of God World Mission Society, all my questions about the Trinity were thoroughly answered through the Bible thanks to Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother New Jerusalem. So I want to share some of what I learned.

Through the following verses, we can see that the Father Jehovah and the Son Jesus are the same.

Isaiah 9:6- “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”

This verse is talking about the Father Jehovah (at the time of Isaiah, Jehovah is Mighty God and the Everlasting Father), coming in the flesh as a male child. Then the only one who can fulfill this prophecy is Jehovah but who actually fulfilled it in the future? Jesus came in the flesh 2,000 years ago to fulfill this prophecy but let’s confirm through the Bible.

Philippians 2:5- “Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself
and became obedient to death— even death on a cross!”

Jesus’ very nature is God, meaning he is God.

Romans 9:5- “ Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them is traced the human ancestry of Christ, who is God over all, forever praised! Amen.”

We can even see through the work of creation that Jesus and Jehovah are the same.

Isaiah 44:24- “This is what the LORD says— your Redeemer, who formed you in the womb: I am the LORD, who has made all things, who alone stretched out the heavens,
who spread out the earth by myself,”

According to this verse, Jehovah created all things by himself.

Colossians 1:15- “He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him.”

Judging by these two verses, the Bible says that there should be two of everything since there are two creators. If we look around, we only see one sun, one moon, and one earth meaning Jehovah and Jesus are the same, God the creator.

Isaiah 44:6- “This is what the LORD says— Israel's King and Redeemer, the LORD Almighty: I am the first and I am the last; apart from me there is no God.”

Revelations 1:8- “I am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, "who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty."

Here, Jehovah states that he is the Alpha and the Omega, The First and the Last.

Revelations 22:12- “Behold, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done. 13I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.

Now Jesus is proclaiming that he is the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last. This is because the Bible further testifies that Jesus and Jehovah are the same.

Now that we can see clearly through the Bible and the grace of Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother that Jehovah and Jesus are the same, in my next post I will share the verses that prove Jehovah and the Holy Spirit are the same.

Colossians 2:17- "These are the shadow of the things to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ."

Hebrews 2:14- "Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might destroy him who holds the power of the death--that is, the devil".

John 8:44- "You belong to your father the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desire. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he
speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies."

We can see that Satan is a liar an intentional murderer.

Revelations 12:7- "And there was a war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon and his angels, and the dragon and his angels fought back. But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. The great dragon was hurled down--that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him."

God must destroy Satan in order to save us but how was Satan's sin revealed?

Mark 14: 55- "The chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were looking for evidence against Jesus so that they could put him to death, but they did not find any. Many testified falsely against him, but their statements did not agree."

Satan used these people to falsely accuse innocent blood. Satan is the intentional murderer, where can the unintentional murderers flee for safety?

Hebrews 12:22- "But you have come to Mount Zion, to the heavenly Jerusalem, the city of the living God. You have come upon thousands of angels in joyful assembly, to the church of the firstborn, whose names are written in heaven."

Revelations 18:2- "With a mighty voice he shouted: 'Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great! She has become a home for demons and a haunt for every evil spirit, a haunt for every unclean and detestable bird.'"

Revelations 18:24- "In her was found the blood of prophets and of the saints, and of all who have been killed on the earth."

Babylon is controlled by Satan and now God wants to payback Satan the false accuser. In order to destroy Satan, we need the law to expose his sin.

Romans 3:29- "Do we, then, nullify the law by this faith? Not at all! Rather, we uphold the law.

Romans 5:19- "For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous."

Isaiah 2:3- "Many people’s will come and say, 'Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob. He will teach us his ways, so that we may walk his paths.' The law will go out from Zion, the word of the Lord from Jerusalem."

Our Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother came to this earth to restore the truth and all of the law by which Satan may be destroyed and we may be saved! I give eternal thanks to Christ Ahnsahnghong and Mother for their endless love and mercy on us sinners. Without this law, without Zion, and without Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother, Satan would continue to lead us all astray. Thank you Father Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother.

Recently I was thinking about God’s laws in the Bible. There is so much dispute about God’s laws. Some people strictly try to follow the Old Testament Law, others loosely adhere to the New Testament, others say that the Law was abolished and we don’t need to follow them anymore. Actually, very recently our Heavenly Father Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother revealed the purpose of the Law and the importance of keeping it. Thanks to our Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong, we can see clearly how important God’s Laws are according to the Bible.

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 men, because all sinned for before the law was given, sin was in the world."

But sin is not taken into account when there is no law. In the same way Adam sinned, all men have sinned. Adam and Eve disobeyed God and ate from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, so we know we committed the same sin. Sin is not taken into account when there is no law. The law reveals our sins.

Romans 7:7- "What shall we say, then? Is the law sin? Certainly not! Indeed I would not have known what sin was except through the law."

The law allows us to fully understand our sins. Why did God make the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil?
Genesis 2:16- "And the Lord God commanded the man, "You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; but you must not eat tree of knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die.""

Through this law, what was exposed?

Genesis 3:1- "Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, "Did God really say, 'You must not eat from any tree in the garden'?"

This is when the serpent tempted Eve and caused her to eat from the forbidden tree. When God asked Adam what he had done, he blamed Eve and Eve blamed the serpent. Then who is the one that originated sin? The serpent was exposed through this but let's see the reason for God giving the law.

Hebrews 10:1- "The law is only a shadow of the good things that are
coming--not the realities themselves."
If there is a shadow, there should be a reality. Let's first understand the shadow.

Deuteronomy 19:1- "When the Lord your God has destroyed the nations whose land he is giving you, and when you have driven them out and settled in their towns and houses, then set aside for yourselves three cities centrally located in the land the Lord your God is giving you to possess. Build roads to them and divide into three parts the land the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance, so that anyone who kills a man may flee there. This is the rule concerning the man who kills another and flees there to save his life--one who kills his neighbor unintentionally, without malice or aforethought....19:11- But if a man hates his neighbor and lies in wait for him, assaults and kills him, and then flees to one of these cities, the elders of his town shall send for him, brings him back from the city, and hand him over to the avenger of blood to die."

This verse is concerning two types of people, unintentional murderers and intentional murderers. This law is a shadow, let's look for the reality.

John 1:17- "For the law came through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ."

In Christ we can find the reality. Then in my next post we can see the reality of the law through Christ. I give thanks to our Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother for this understanding of Their love.

1 Corinthians 11:23- "For I received from the Lord what I also passed on
to you..."

Philippians 3:17- "Join with others in following my example, brother,
and take note of those who live according to the pattern we gave you."

1 Peter 2:21- "To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you,
leaving you an example, that you should follow in his footsteps.

Even apostle Paul gave us an example to follow which he received from
Christ. This too shows us that our actions are very important in our
lives of faith.

So I pose the question, why are our actions so important?

Revelations 1:3- "Blessed is the one who reads the words of this
prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is
written in it, because the time is near."

James 1:22- "Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive
yourselves. Do what it says. Anyone who listens to the word but does
not do what it says is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror and,
after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he
looks like. But the man who looks intently on the perfect law that
gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has
heard, but doing it- he will be blessed in what he does."

I truly wish to thank our Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and
Heavenly Mother for leaving their thrones behind to reveal this amazing
truth. Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother came and set us an example to follow just as Jesus did 2000 years ago. They came and established Zion, the Church of God World Mission
Society so we can come freely to learn all the mysteries in the Bible.

• It appears that ever since I came to the Church of God World
  Mission Society, I've been hearing one common theme from friends and
  family like a resounding gong. This central idea that everyone has been
  expressing to me lately is that we are saved by our faith, our belief in
  Jesus Christ is what gets us into the kingdom of heaven.
  

• Now I don't know about anyone who may be reading this but
  personally, when it comes to matters such as salvation, I make sure that
  I am extra careful to find the correct answers. So I took the time to
  review some of the things I've studied in the Bible and came across some
  very compelling verses on this issue.
  

• John 13:15- "I have set you an example that you should do as I have
  done for you."
  

• John 14:15- "If you love me you will obey what I command."
  

• It can clearly be seen that if we desire to love God, we must obey what
  he commanded. But what did he command? That follow the example that
  set for us.
  

• Between these two verses, it is plain to me that just believing is God
  is not enough. Believing in God and confessing His name is the
  beginning of our path to salvation. However, it is clear in the Bible
  that our beliefs and confessions must be backed by our actions.
  This understanding was revealed by our Heavenly Father Christ
  Ahnsahnghong who came to remind us of all of Jesus Christ's teachings.
  Although Christ Ahnsahnghong gave us enough to understand from these
  verses, I presume that if the readers of this blog may be something like
  me and may not be satisfied with just these verses. In this case I will
  post again very soon to show what else Christ Ahnsahnghong said on this
  matter.

A few weeks ago I had to let my coworkers know that I was taking off from work in order to attend a special even at the Church of God World Mission Society. So one of them complained that I’m always taking off of work for church. He kept saying that I’ll never make a good living or have a great life if I’m always taking off for church.

Immediately I thought about how our Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother taught us that our true home is not on this earth.
I showed my coworker what this earth really is according to the Bible.

Psalms 102:19- “The Lord looked down from his sanctuary on high, from heaven he viewed the earth, to hear the groans of the prisoners and release those condemned to death.” Then why would God look down to the earth and describe us as prisoners? Obviously because God views this earth as a prison. Then if God call this earth a prison, should I consider it my home?
Let’s see what one of the most well known characters in the Old Testament says about his time here on earth.

Genesis 47:8- “Pharaoh asked him, ‘How old are you?’ And Jacob said to Pharaoh, ‘The years of my pilgrimage are a hundred and thirty.’”
When Pharaoh asked Jacob his age, instead of just saying I am 130 years old, he said the years of his pilgrimage are 130. Then what does this mean? A pilgrimage is a journey in which one leaves his home to visit another place or city. According to Jacob, his time on this earth was just a journey away from his home.

Even King David let us know more about this fact.
Psalms 119:18- “Open my eyes that I may see wonderful things in your law. I am a stranger on earth; do not hide your commands from me.” King David said he was a stranger on earth, how can we consider this earth our home then?

By this time my coworker was pretty clear on where I was going with this. He understood that I’m not worried about having a life like Donald Trump on this earth because this is not our true home. However, I wanted to share with him one more verse in which our Father Christ Ahnsahnghong made it very clear that this earth is not our home.

Hebrews 11:13- “All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance. And they admitted that they were aliens and strangers on earth. People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own. If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return. Instead they were longing for a better country- a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.

Thanks to our Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother because they came to remind us of our true heavenly home. Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother came to bring us back to our heavenly home from this earthly prison. I think my coworker understood that I’m not overly concerned with having a glorious life on this earth because we at the Church of God World Mission Society have a glorious life in a beautiful city waiting for us in the kingdom of heaven.
