"Running Together, Living Together": Shincheonji Couple Found the True Meaning of Partnership on the Football Pitch

In celebration of "Married Couples' Day" in South Korea (May 21st), a unique love story from the Matthias Tribe Daejeon Church of Shincheonji is shedding light on what it truly means to walk through life as a team. For this particular husband and wife, the secrets to a harmonious marriage weren't found in a textbook, but rather on the football pitch and through their shared spiritual journey. A Match Made on the Pitch The couple's story began where they both feel most at home: the football field. The husband (referred to as A), a former professional football player in Thailand, returned to South Korea for injury treatment and tryouts. It was at a local football gathering in Daejeon that he met his future wife (B). While B had been practicing her faith at the Shincheonji Daejeon Church since 2006, A naturally joined her in 2015 after learning the Bible's teachings. For both, the Word-centered faith—which strictly emphasizes love and harmony—became the bedrock ...

The True Identities of the Tree of Life, the Tree of the Fruit of Good and Evil, the Serpent, and of Adam


God ​​created ​heaven, ​earth, ​and ​all creation, He established ​a garden in ​Eden in the ​east, and ​He ​made man, ​that is, male and female, ​and put them ​there. ​Moreover, ​He ​​told ​those ​people ​to ​be fruitful, increase in ​number, fill the ​earth, and subdue ​it, and ​He ​gave all ​of creation to Adam and ​told him to ​rule ​over ​it. ​​In ​the ​middle ​of ​this Garden of Eden ​were the tree ​of life, the ​tree of ​the ​fruit of ​good and evil (the tree ​of the knowledge ​of ​good ​and ​​evil), ​and ​all ​kinds ​of trees. God told ​Adam, “You can ​freely take and ​eat the ​fruit ​of any ​tree in the garden, but ​do not take ​and ​eat ​the ​​fruit ​of ​the ​tree ​of the fruit of ​good and evil ​in the middle,” ​and He ​warned, ​“On the ​day you eat of it, ​you will surely ​die.”

Yet ​one ​day, ​​the ​wild ​serpent ​came ​to Eve and asked, ​“Did God really ​say ‘you must ​not eat ​from ​any tree ​in the Garden?’” Then, Eve ​answered the serpent, ​“God ​did ​say, ​​‘You ​must ​not ​eat ​fruit from the tree ​that is in ​the middle of ​the garden, ​and ​you must ​not touch it, or you ​will die.’” To ​this, ​the ​serpent ​​said ​to ​Eve, ​“You ​will not surely die. ​For God knows ​that when you ​eat of ​it ​your eyes ​will be opened, and you ​will be like ​God, ​knowing ​good ​​and ​evil.” ​When ​Eve ​saw that the fruit ​of the tree ​was good for ​food and ​pleasing ​to the ​eye, and also desirable for ​gaining wisdom, she ​took ​some ​and ​​ate ​it. ​She ​also ​gave some to her ​husband, who was ​with her, and ​he ate ​it. ​Then the ​eyes of both of them ​were opened, and ​they ​realized ​they ​​were ​naked; ​so ​they ​sewed fig leaves together ​and made coverings ​for themselves. Then, ​they were ​frightened ​when they ​heard the sound (voice) of ​God and they ​hid. ​

As ​seen ​​in ​Rv ​18:2-3 ​and ​14, the chosen people ​(the fruit Babylon ​longed for) who ​were captives ​in ​Babylon, which ​made all nations fall with ​the wine of ​adulteries, ​left ​from ​​there ​and ​Babylon ​was ​judged, but the tree ​of life in ​Rv 22:1-5 is ​bearing twelve ​crops ​of fruit ​every month. This is the ​reality at the ​time ​of ​Revelation’s ​​fulfillment.

Babylon, ​in ​which ​all ​kinds of denominations (religious ​bodies) have become ​one, is the ​tree of ​the ​fruit of ​good and evil, and it ​has met its ​end, ​but ​Shincheonji ​​has ​become ​the ​tree ​of life that bears ​twelve crops of ​fruit every month. ​However, Protestants ​today ​do not ​know the present reality despite ​seeing this, so ​it ​seems ​that ​​their ​lives ​of ​faith ​have been dead for ​a long time. ​The curtain of ​the history ​of ​the Bible, ​which began with the fruit ​of the tree ​of ​life ​and ​​the ​fruit ​of ​the ​tree of the fruit ​of good and ​evil, came to ​a close ​by ​God’s will ​and objective being fulfilled in ​Revelation. Although [we] ​are ​all ​the ​​same ​people ​and ​carry ​out [our] lives of ​faith with the ​same Bible, why ​do [they] ​not ​know despite ​seeing [this]? It is because ​the devil covered ​their ​eyes. ​Try ​​and ​verify ​who ​between ​Shincheonji and the Protestant ​Church is eating ​the fruit of ​the tree ​of ​life and ​who is eating the fruit ​of the tree ​of ​the ​fruit ​​of ​good ​and ​evil.

At ​the time of the ​first coming, Jesus ​spoke of the ​secrets of ​the ​kingdom of ​heaven in parables. Today, however, ​[we] have come ​to ​the ​era ​​of ​Revelation, ​and ​God ​made known the secrets ​of the kingdom ​of heaven and ​the secrets ​of ​the devil ​of Babylon, and He even ​made known their ​actual ​entities. ​Moreover, ​​He ​also ​made ​known ​the tree of life.

Now, ​let us organize ​the true identities ​of the ​tree ​of life, ​the tree of the fruit ​of good and ​evil, ​the ​serpent, ​​and ​of ​Adam. ​The ​tree of life is ​the pastor who ​has the word ​of life ​and ​his organization, ​and the tree of the ​fruit of good ​and ​evil ​is ​​the ​false ​pastor ​who ​made all nations fall ​with falsehood and ​his organization. Furthermore, ​the serpent ​is ​the deceiver ​the dragon, that is, the ​devil and Satan, ​and ​Adam ​is ​​the ​one ​who ​was ​the pastor of the ​chosen people whom ​God chose, but ​who betrayed. ​
