On March 23, 2025, Shincheonji Church of Jesus, The Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony, witnessed a remarkable event. The church's founder, 94-year-old Chairman Lee Man-hee, visited the church's location in Busan, South Korea, delivering an inspiring sermon to a crowd of over 10,000 people. Despite his age, Chairman Lee continues his nationwide tour, spreading the message of God's truth across the country.
Unstoppable Growth in Challenging Times
The energy at the Busan church was palpable, with members filling the sanctuary even before the service began. Despite the challenges faced by many churches after the pandemic, Shincheonji Church is experiencing remarkable growth, with more people turning to the church for clear and meaningful biblical teachings.
The Secret Behind Shincheonji's Success: Bible-Centered Faith
One of the key reasons for this continued growth is Shincheonji's emphasis on a Bible-centered faith. The church remains committed to offering systematic Bible teachings, helping individuals understand the profound truths of the Scriptures, especially in challenging areas like the Book of Revelation.
Chairman Lee is renowned for his insightful interpretation of Revelation, explaining its fulfillment in the present day. He urges believers to focus on the actual, real-world fulfillment of the biblical prophecies, recognizing that these fulfillments is crucial for a true understanding of God's work.
Revelation: God's Final History
In his sermon, Chairman Lee emphasized that the Book of Revelation is God’s final history, and altering or ignoring its truths leads to spiritual peril. His message is simple: follow the teachings of Revelation exactly as they are written, without modification. He reminded everyone that just as Jesus fulfilled prophecies in His time, today’s believers must recognize the fulfillment of Revelation as part of God's ongoing plan. In a heartfelt moment during the service, Chairman Lee expressed the importance of living out the teachings of the Bible. He encouraged everyone to not just speak of faith but to embody it, becoming "walking Bibles" in their daily lives. His message was clear: true faith comes from living in accordance with the Scriptures, with unwavering commitment to the word of God.
Growing Influence and Cooperation with Other Churches
The impact of Shincheonji's teachings is evident not only in its growing number of congregants but also in the increasing number of local pastors who are visiting the church to learn more about its approach to Bible study. Recently, 3,372 churches worldwide entered into cooperative agreements with Shincheonji, and 296 of these churches have even adopted the church’s name as part of their commitment to deeper Bible study.
The relationship between Shincheonji and other Christian denominations is strengthening, with many expressing gratitude for the deeper understanding of Scripture they are gaining. Pastors have shared their appreciation for the clarity with which Revelation is explained, as this area of the Bible is often overlooked or misunderstood in many traditional churches.
Shincheonji’s Ongoing Impact
The event in Busan serves as a reminder of Shincheonji’s continuing influence and growth. As the church expands its reach and shares its message of biblical truth, more people are finding hope and understanding in its teachings. The church's commitment to truth and its clear interpretation of Revelation make it an important spiritual movement for many seeking a deeper connection with the Word of God.
Shincheonji Church is not just a place of worship but a community where believers grow in faith and knowledge, united by the pursuit of understanding the true meaning of Scripture. As Chairman Lee continues his journey, the impact of his teachings continues to resonate across the nation and beyond.
