42 Years of Faith: A Legacy Passed Down Through Generations


A Faith That Continues Over Time

Faith is not built in a single moment.
It grows over time and is passed from one generation to the next.

At the 42nd anniversary service of Shincheonji Church of Jesus, this truth was clearly seen. What began as a small gathering has become a lasting journey of faith shared across generations.

The Beginning: Faith in a Small Place

Some believers still remember the early days.

Before there was even a proper church building, members gathered in a small basement.
The space was simple, but their desire to understand the Bible was strong.

One long-time member shared that learning God’s word brought deep joy, even in those humble conditions.
For them, the environment did not matter—the word of God did.

Why Faith Continues to Grow

Over the years, many people have joined this journey of faith.

Another believer, who joined in the early 1990s, shared that they were searching for clear answers in the Bible.
Through Bible study, they found understanding and confidence in their faith.

This reflects a key reason for continued growth: People are looking for truth they can clearly understand.

Passing Faith to the Next Generation

Today, that same faith is being carried forward by younger believers.

The dedication and sacrifice of earlier members have become a foundation for the next generation.
What was once received is now being shared again.

Faith is not staying in one place.
It is moving forward—person to person, generation to generation.

More Than Growth—A Living Faith

While the church has grown over the past 42 years,
the meaning goes beyond numbers.

It is about:

  • understanding the Bible clearly

  • living with purpose

  • sharing faith with others

This kind of faith is not temporary.
It continues through time.

Looking Ahead: A Journey That Continues

The 42nd anniversary was not just a time to look back.
It was also a moment to look forward.

With the same heart as in the beginning,
believers continue their journey—holding onto the word and passing it on.

What started in a small basement
has become a faith that continues to grow and be shared around the world.
