The "Heavenly Exam": 7,400+ Believers in Busan Challenge Themselves with Bible Memorization

While many are moving away from religious texts, one community in Busan is doing the exact opposite. The Shincheonji Andrew Tribe recently held its "Heavenly Exam" (Cheonguk-gosi) , a rigorous test focused on memorizing and understanding the Book of Revelation. Why the "Heavenly Exam"?   This isn't just about grades. It's about a "spiritual reset." After seeing a massive 3-fold increase in participants compared to last year, over 7,459 believers sat for the exam on March 28th. The goal? To embed the Word of God into their daily lives and build a faith that isn't just a weekend hobby, but a lifestyle. Real People, Real Change: For Young Professionals: Like 29-year-old Park Jung-won, who memorized verses during his commute. "It helped me build a habit of self-discipline and reflection," he says. For Seniors: Like 72-year-old Kim Soon-bok, who stayed up late to study. "Memorizing keeps my mind focused and elevates my meditation...

[2025 09 27] Shincheonji’s Revelation Bible Seminar Draws Thousands in Cheongju

 “The House of Revelation” Continues Its 40-Year Legacy of Clear Biblical Testimony

On September 27, the Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony (Chairman: Man Hee Lee), held the “Revelation Prophecy and Fulfillment Bible Seminar” at its Cheongju Church.

Since 1985, Shincheonji has hosted large-scale Bible seminars to testify to both the prophecy and the fulfillment of the Book of Revelation. For over 40 years, the church has been recognized as a “House of Revelation,” offering clear and logical explanations on a subject often avoided in traditional Christianity. This unique approach has drawn growing attention both domestically and internationally.


A Record of Growth and Interest

This year alone, three Revelation seminars exclusively for pastors gathered more than 1,700 attendees. The September event, however, marked the fourth seminar of the year — and for the first time, it opened its doors to both pastors and the public.

The demand was overwhelming. All 1,000 seats inside the Cheongju Church’s main sanctuary were filled quickly, leading organizers to open additional indoor and outdoor spaces to accommodate a total of 7,500 participants.

Pastors Encouraging Pastors

One notable trend is that pastors who had previously attended Shincheonji’s Bible seminars are now encouraging their colleagues to join. This peer-to-peer recommendation is turning the Revelation seminars into a growing platform for inter-church dialogue centered on Scripture.

A pastor who registered for the event explained:

“I had already watched Shincheonji’s seminars and lectures on YouTube and found them thoroughly biblical. I decided to attend in person because I wanted to learn more and see it with my own eyes.”

A Legacy of Clear Testimony

A Shincheonji representative noted:

“Interest has grown rapidly through word-of-mouth among pastors who previously joined. This seminar will be an important opportunity for pastors and believers alike to deepen their understanding of the Word of God.”

For 40 years, Shincheonji’s Revelation Bible seminars have provided answers to long-standing questions about the final book of the New Testament. As interest continues to spread globally, the “House of Revelation” stands as a unique place where prophecy and fulfillment meet.
