UN Human Rights Council Receives Petition on Minorities in South Korea

What began as a domestic legal dispute in South Korea has officially reached the global stage. CAP LC, a prominent international human rights NGO holding special consultative status with the UN Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), has submitted a formal written statement to the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC). The petition voices growing international alarm over institutional discrimination, social stigma, and the erosion of due process affecting minority groups, specifically focusing on the recent treatment of the Shincheonji Church of Jesus. The Core Appeal: Decisions Must Be Based on Evidence, Not Stigma In its official submission to the UN, CAP LC shifted the focus away from internal theological controversies, choosing instead to address a more critical systemic issue: the objective standards of administrative and judicial justice.

Living in the Fulfillment of Revelation: Reflections from the 2025 Shincheonji Gwangju Grand Bible Seminar

On January 8th, a remarkable event took place at Shincheonji Church of Jesus in Gwangju. Under the theme “Testimony on the Fulfillment of Revelation,” Chairman Lee Man-Hee delivered the year’s first major seminar to a packed audience. Despite freezing weather and heavy snow, over 30,000 attendees—both in-person and online—gathered to listen, including 200 local pastors, 331 international pastors, journalists, and believers from the Peter Tribe.

The seminar was more than just a lecture. It was a moment to reflect on faith, the Bible’s promises, and what it means to live in an era where Revelation is being fulfilled.

The Importance of Revelation Today

Chairman Lee highlighted how crucial it is to understand Revelation, especially in today’s context. He reminded everyone that Revelation is not just a book of prophecies but one of fulfillment—a guide to recognizing God’s work in action.

“We must ask ourselves: Am I living as the Bible teaches? Have I been recreated according to the promises of God in Revelation?” Chairman Lee posed these questions to the audience, urging self-reflection.

He emphasized the warning in Revelation 22:18-19, which forbids adding or subtracting from its words. “The Word must be understood and kept exactly as it is,” he said. “Without this, we cannot inherit the kingdom of heaven.”


Stories of Renewal and Commitment

The seminar left a deep impression on those who attended.

Pastor Kim, a Presbyterian leader, shared his experience: “Hearing about the fulfillment of Revelation in this era made me realize how alive the Bible truly is. I’m inspired to become a priest of the gospel who spreads this truth.”

For Brother Oh, a member of the Peter Tribe, the seminar was a wake-up call. “Chairman Lee’s passion and dedication made me reflect on my own faith. I’ve decided to live a more active and mature faith life this year,” he said.

Even younger attendees felt inspired to make changes. One youth member admitted, “I’ve been stuck in old habits, but this seminar reminded me to renew my faith. I want to share God’s love and blessings more actively this year.”



A Vision for the Church and Community

Beyond individual transformations, the seminar highlighted Shincheonji Church’s broader mission. Peter Tribe leader Yoo Jae-Wook expressed the church’s commitment to being a light in the community. “We are not only dedicated to spreading God’s Word but also to being a church that serves as salt and light in society,” he said.

Looking Ahead

This seminar was a powerful reminder of God’s active work in fulfilling His promises. It encouraged believers to reflect on their own spiritual journeys and take steps toward living according to the truth of the Bible.

As we move forward, let’s ask ourselves: Are we truly living by God’s Word? Are we prepared to share this truth with others?

The fulfillment of Revelation is not just a distant hope—it’s happening now. Let’s embrace it and live as faithful witnesses to God’s promises.
