Faith and the promised pastor

The following was written to promote proper knowledge of the word and a proper life of faith for all believers.

Religion is the will of God, and God himself is the Lord of religion. Religion should not be something that humans can simply alter on a whim for their own convenience. Our faith should be based upon the promises (prophecies) of the holy God. Who is the pastor promised in the Old and New Testaments?

Deception, temptation, murder, and persecution

This message has been written to promote a true life of faith for all believers who pursue the hope of the kingdom of heaven.

Over the 6,000 years of God’s history, the messengers (pastors) and followers of God have been persecuted, expelled from their churches or towns, and even murdered by the pastors and followers of the devil for proclaiming the truth. Through the prophecies of the New Testament God, Jesus, and Jesus’ apostles are telling us that this work of persecution will continue at the time of Jesus’ second coming.

MBC PD Note’s false broadcast and the truth

If the media of a nation is upright, its nation and citizens will also be upright. No one should plant lies in peoples’ hearts nor should any lies be allowed to remain undisclosed. A public broadcast must not convey lies, and any false broadcasts should be shut down. Any false information that is broadcast via TV or radio must be corrected.

Twice, once on May 8th and once on Dec 25th, 2007, the program PD Note from the Korean TV broadcasting company MBC aired a program about Shinchonji Church of Jesus. The program focused on false reports of Shinchonji members abandoning their homes, breaking up their families, imprisoning and assaulting others, and embezzling money.
