World Mission Society Church of God - The Biblical Day of Worship 2

World Mission Society Church of God follows teachings of Christ Ahnsahnghong and Mother.



The Biblical Day of Worship 2

Let’s check the dictionary.

Sat·ur·day : the seventh day of the week
Sun·day : 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.

The Biblical Day of Worship 1

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.

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.

World Mission Society Church of God - Christ Ahnsahnghong Established Jerusalem Mother in Zion

World Mission Society Church of God follows teachings of Christ Ahnsahnghong and Mother.



Christ Ahnsahnghong Established Jerusalem Mother in Zion



It made me wonder why Christians have never heard of Our Heavenly Mother? I actually asked this, being that so many people have faith. Of course, everything is in the Bible:

Isa. 33:20 - "Look upon Zion, the city of our festivals; your eyes will see Jerusalem..."

I used to just read this verse, "Yes, of course, Zion is the place keeping God's feasts." However, the second part of that verse, "Your eyes will see Jerusalem" makes you stop and think, "Hey wait a minute, if a church is not keeping the Feasts of God, can we see Mother there?" Then what are the feasts?

Lev. 23:1-44 - Passover Feast, Feast of Unleavened Bread, Feast of First Fruits, Feast of Weeks, Feast of Trumpets, Day of Atonement, & Feast of Tabernacles. Let's not forget the weekly Sabbath!

So the church keeping these Feasts will be able to see Jerusalem Mother that church is viewed BY GOD as Zion.

Looking around, only the Church of God World Mission Society, of course established by the 2nd Coming Christ Ahnsahnghong, keeps the Feasts of God - all other churches claim that the feasts are Jewish and no longer need to be kept. How incorrect! Its thru the law we can recognize Christ:

Gal. 3:24 "So the law was put in charge to lead us to Christ[a] that we might be justified by faith."

So really, if we don't keep the law of God, then how can you be lead to Christ? That's why I thank Christ Ahnsahnghong for reinstalling the Feasts of God. Only God Almighty would establish the church keeping His law correctly. Also, through the law we can recognize Zion and come to see Our beautiful Jerusalem Mother !

World Mission Society Church of God - The Fig Tree Lesson

World Mission Society Church of God follows teachings of Christ Ahnsahnghong and Mother.

In the Bible it is prophesied that Jesus Christ will appear a second time (Heb. 9:28). Then, when is Jesus supposed to appear again for a second time?

Many people say that we will not know when He will come, but we must see if the Bible discloses when Jesus will come.

SIGNS OF THE END

When the disciples asked about Jesus’ Second Coming and the end of the age, Jesus replied:

Matt 24:3-33 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?”…”Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door.

Jesus said, “as soon as it’s twigs get tender and it’s leaves come out, you know that it is near”, then, we have to find out when will the fig tree bloom and therefore understand the timing of Jesus’ second appearing.

THE FIG TREE STAND FOR ISRAEL

In order to realize the meaning of the parable we must understand what the fig tree represents. As it is written,

Luke 13:6-7 Then he told this parable: “A man had a fig tree, planted in his vineyard, and he went to look for fruit on it, but did not find any. So he said to the man who took care of the vineyard, ‘For three years now I’ve been coming to look for fruit on this fig tree and haven’t found any. Cut it down! Why should it use up the soil?’

Why did Jesus compare Himself to a man who when to look for fruit on a fig tree planted in a vineyard?What is the meaning of this? It’s meaning is that Jesus preached the gospel to the Israelites for three years searching for the fruit of the gospel. Therefore, the fig tree represents for the country of Israel.

Isa 5:7 For the vineyard of the LORD of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah his pleasant plant: and he looked for judgment, but behold oppression; for righteousness, but behold a cry. (KJV )

In the above verse we can understand that in the Bible the vineyard represents the country of Israel and the plant (the tree) represents the people of Israel. Let’s look at another biblical testimony concerning this.

Jer. 24:5 Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel; Like these good figs, so will I acknowledge them that are carried away captive of Judah, whom I have sent out of this place into the land of the Chaldeans for their good.

Through this verse God makes it apparent that figs represent Israel, since He compared the figs to the people of Israel once more.

THE FALL OF ISRAEL

In Luke 13:7 Jesus told His disciples to cut down a fig that had not borne any fruit. Actually Jesus’ words at that time was a prophesy of what was going to happen to Israel. As a fulfillment to what Jesus had said, Israel which had rejected the gospel that Jesus preached was completely devastated by Roman soldiers in A.D. 70. After it’s collapse, the people were scattered all over the world as a stateless people for more than 1900 years.

THE REVIVAL OF THE FIG TREE: ISREAL

After much time had passed, the fig tree that had been cut down and withered from the roots began to bloom once more. It’s twigs got tender and its leaves began to sprout. When did all this happen? The revival of the fig tree occurred in 1948. On May 14, 1948, Israel proclaimed her independence and recovered her sovereignty. The fig tree which seemed to have with no sign of revival actually resuscitated. Israel’s independence after such a long time of captivity marked the second coming of Jesus as prophesied. He has come again but with the name Christ Ahnsahnghong. Christ Ahnsahnghong is the one we all have been waiting for. That is why the Church of God received Christ Ahnsahnghong, the second coming Jesus, as the Savior.

Rom 11:26 And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: The deliverer will come from Zion; he will turn godlessness away from Jacob.

According to the prophesy revealed through the fig tree, Ahnsahnghong, the Second Coming Jesus, came from Zion in 1948. Now He is calling you. Will you let Him just stand at your door? Or, will you open and receive Him?

World Mission Society Church of God - Christ Ahnsahnghong protect us

World Mission Society Church of God follows teachings of Christ Ahnsahnghong and Mother.


Christ Ahnsahnghong protect us

There are rumors of destruction going on in the whole world. And although people proclaim there is peace, there is destrucion at hand (1 Thessalonians 5:3).
Then how can we be protected? By living in an underground city? By living in a submorine under water? By moving to another planet? How long can a person really survive if they are to do this? Not long at all.
The only way we know for sure that we are protected is by God.
Then how did God say we will be protected from this pending disaster?

Rev 7: 1 ~4 After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth to prevent any wind from blowing on the land or on the sea or on any tree. Then I saw another angel coming up from the east, having the seal of the living God. He called out in a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm the land and the sea: "Do not harm the land or the sea or the trees until we put a seal on the foreheads of the servants of our God." Then I heard the number of those who were sealed: 144,000 from all the tribes of Israel.

Before the last disaster, whether it be last plague or by God, there is a way to be protected.
An angel coming from the east will bring the seal of God and put it on the foreheads of the 144,000.
This angel that has authority to command other angels is God Himself because He is holding the seal of God.
This angel coming from the east is second coming christ, God almighty, Christ Ahnsahnghong.

World Mission Society Church of God - Plural God

World Mission Society Church of God follows teachings of Christ Ahnsahnghong and Mother. Without knowing God, we cannot know how to save our lives.
Many people say "We know God" or "God is everywhere." But most people do not know what God has done, is doing, or will do. The only way to know what God has done, is doing, or will do is to read the Bible, the Word of God. God left us this word to show us all His plans, and also to show us about God Himself.
The God who fulfills prophecy is Elohim God.
Elohim is the Hebrew name for the plural God.
We can see this name used many times throughout the Bible. What is God trying to show us? That there is more than one God. According to the Bible, there are two Gods, male and female.

Genesis 1:26~27 And God said, "Let us make man in our image, and in our likeness. In the image of God he created him, male and female He created them."

No one knew this mystery of God. And without knowing no one can enter heaven. We must make certain we know God. God is both our Father and Mother without a doubt. This is according to the Bible.

Galatians 4:26 "But the Jerusalem that is above is free and she is our Mother."

Mother God is represented in the New Testament by the Spiritual Jerusalem of the New Covenant.
Christ Ahnsahnghong spoke these words to us in these days and revealed the existence of Mother God through the Bible. Let us believe Christ Ahnsahnghong who is the second coming Christ testified in the bible, and let us believe our Spiritual Mother, New Jerusalem.

World Mission Society Church of God - Christmas is not birthday of Jesus

World Mission Society Church of God follows teachings of Christ Ahnsahnghong and Mother.

Christmas is not birthday of Jesus

Christmas is a popular festival which is celebrated throughout the world. When the Christmas season arrives, in December, everyone gets into the festive spirit. Most people are under the impression that Christmas is Jesus’ birthday, the day when He came into the world to give blessings and eternal hope to mankind; however, the Church of God—believing in the Second Coming Christ—does not celebrate Christmas, because it is not the birthday of Jesus.

In fact, within Christmas is hidden a deceitful trick of Satan. The devil has tricked many people into worshiping the sun god by allowing them to fall into the illusion that they are sincerely worshiping God in the proper way.

Actually, Christmas is a festival to the sun god, Baal, and thus, those who keep the festival are rebelling against God. Satan has deceived people into mistaking Christmas for the birthday of Jesus, and by this cunning deception, Satan has come to be unwittingly served by all the people of the world. Many people try to justify themselves, saying, "We celebrate Christmas because it is the birthday of Jesus." However, Christmas—December 25th—is the birthday of the sun god, Nimrod, who was the first model of the Antichrist. Christmas originated in the festival of Saturnalia, and is a subtle scheme—devised by Satan—to destroy our souls.

Satan always tries to turn us away from the way that God has commanded us to follow: "You shall have no other gods before me," "You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything." Today, Satan is prowling around, like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. In order to resist him, we should be alert, standing firm in our faith. In today’s world, lies are prevalent—and most consider these lies to be the truth—because this generation does not hesitate in following the ways that are against God. We need to be able to discern the truth from all of the falsehood. By examining numerous sources of evidence, we can clearly understand that December 25th was not the birthday of Jesus, but the birthday of the sun god.

Now, let’s look carefully at various materials which testify that the date of Jesus’ birth was not December 25th, and that this date was the birthday of the sun god, as it had been celebrated in ancient Rome. Even though all of the people living in this age believe that lies and falsehood are the truth, we are the ones who must restore the truth.
