Real Experiences on Shincheonji Church of Jesus – part 2

  I would like to show some experiences on Shincheonji Church of Jesus. Like before my posting, They also had prejudices in regards to Shincheonji at first.

  Hello guys, I just wanted to make this awareness post on my current experience within the past year or so in terms of my life of faith.

 

  I grew up in a catholic family, with traditional style parents who would always try to push me into the catholic doctrine. As I grew older i had that moment to explore my faith in God more openly. I tried many different churches of different denominations, few youth groups and Bible studies. It came clear that eventually I was not looking what I wanted; merely because firstly I really wanted a more logical flow of understanding from all the 66 books of the Bible. I’ve always questioned as to why are there many denominations but only one Bible, one God? Really, as a believer in Christ shouldn’t we be united as one with the same understanding? Then what is truth?

 

  Then eventually I found a place which would be called Shincheonji Church of Jesus. Really, I found the place I was looking for, they were able to answer all my questions and give me amazing understanding with all 66 books of the Bible. But however, during my time learning there, I looked at the internet.

 

  There are articles about Shincheonji brainwashing and deceiving people, how bizarre. I almost fell into that trap of believing the words of ‘people’. I shouldn’t, rather ‘we’ shouldn’t judge a place by it’s cover, i felt like we live in a superficial society nowadays, people are too quick to judge. What truly defines a cult, the name? Their teachings? Or their actions?

   

  In each topic I studied, I reviewed it at least more than once, the rumours felt too negative, and it was sad as to why some people would quickly judge this place. Fast track to now, I came to truly believe in Shincheonji. I was glad I stuck through the end of the Bible course, which also they sincerely answered all my question during the time. I’m also relieved I did not judge this place quickly, neither will I judge those who slander Shincheonji, but rather I want those people to understand and ask those who are in Shincheonji about their misunderstanding.

 

  To conclude the story, I wanted to spread an awareness on why we should not judge a place by its cover, we should sincerely ask. Even according to the Bible, we should not judge others.

  Have you heard of Shincheonji? probably in many people’s eyes it’s a cult that people don’t even want to talk about, but actually for me, it’s such a warm place that give me a lot of unexpected surprise and joy.

 

  Raised in China, just like most of the Chinese, I didn’t know God, and I also didn’t have the heart to know about Him or anything about Christianity. Moreover, I cannot even understand what’s the reason why there are many Christians who are so eagerly attending churches every Sunday to worship an invisible God, that people cannot even prove His existence. What’s the reason why people still believe in something that is so hard to imagine? I was always curious about these questions.

 

  However, I have a chance to attend the Bible study held by church of Shincheonji, and I was so amazed to get to understand how deep the meaning of Bible is. Everything in the Bible is so connected and logical, and I experienced so many unforgettable moments every time when I get to understand a little bit more about God, and it really changed my previous perspectives regarding to Christianity. 
 

 Now I am a member of church of Shincheonji, and no matter how people would say, I know deep in my heart that here is the place that can really give me answer regarding to God, to religion, to the world we are living in, and also to myself. I’m really thankful to be here, and also want to share my story to other people as well, in the hope that it can provide you a new perspective towards it.
