The reason it’s written that God ‘alone’ created the heavens and the earth while two God did---wmscog

The reason it’s written that God ‘alone’ created the heavens and the earth while two God did

The Bible says that God the Father and God the Mother created the heavens and the earth.
Then God [Elohim] said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground." So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. (Genesis 1:26-27)
In Genesis Chapter 1 which described the process of the Creation, God is referred to as ‘Elohim,’ the plural form. In addition, the plural pronoun ‘Us’ was used. If there were only one God, God should been referred to as the singular noun ‘El’ or ‘Eloah,’ and the singular pronoun ‘Me’ should been used. God the Creator is not only one. From the passage “Male and female were created in the image of God,” we can understand that there are two Gods: God the Father and God the Mother.
However, in other verse, it’s written that God ‘alone’ created the heavens and the earth.
I am the LORD, who has made all things, who alone stretched out the heavens, who spread out the earth by myself (Isaiah 44:24)
Why is it written that God ‘alone’ created the heavens and the earth in the book of Isaiah while it’s written that two Gods did in the book of Genesis? Is one of the two verses wrong? Or, is the Bible contradictory? No. God let us know the reason through Adam and Eve, the first man and woman, who were created in the image of God.
For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh. (Genesis 2:24)
It’s obvious that Adam and Eve are two individuals, who existed as a man and a woman respectively. However, it’s written that Adam and Eve will be united and become one flesh. Therefore, in the Bible, it’s referred to as one man or Adam as the representative when mentioning Adam and Eve together.
Nevertheless, death reigned from the time of Adam to the time of Moses, even over those who did not sin by breaking a command, as did Adam, who was a pattern of the one to come. But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one man [Adam]… (Romans 5:14-15)
It was not just Adam alone who committed the sin of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Both Adam and Eve ate from the tree of the knowledge; moreover Eve did first. However, the Bible wrote the sin of the tree of the knowledge as that of one man. It’s because Adam and Eve are considered one, being united, and Adam is referred to as the representative. This shows the reason it’s written that God ‘alone’ created the heavens and the earth, by uniting God the Father and God the Mother.
Adam and Eve are the first man and woman, who were created in the image of God the Father and God the Mother. God expressed the sin of Adam and Eve as that of ‘one man’ and referred to Adam as the representative of the two. In the same way, while God the Father and God the Mother performed the Creation together, it’s expressed that God ‘alone’ did and God the Father is presented as the representative of the Creation Work.
Some people deny the holy divine nature of two Gods seen through what has been made, without knowing the profound meaning of the Bible. However, the Bible clearly testifies to God the Father and God the Mother from the first Chapter of Genesis to the last Chapter of Revelation.

Many Christians often say they preach the gospel.  However, the core of the heavenly gospel that Jesus came to this earth and sent Himself is very the Passover.  Church of God delivers the same teachings as the early church.  Please come to Church of God and keep the Passover. (Matt.26:17)

The World Mission Society Church of God believes in God the Father and God the Mother according to the Bible

The World Mission Society Church of God believes in God the Father and God the Mother according to the Bible.

One of things that many people misunderstand about the Bible is that there is only God the Father. However, the Bible clearly reveals that there exists God the Mother as well God the Father from the first page of the Bible.

Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea...." So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. (Genesis 1:26-27)
If there is only one God, God the Father, it should read ‘my image’ not ‘our image.’ In addition, only ‘male’ should have been created in the image of God the Father. But, is there only male created in the image of God? Isn’t there also ‘female’? The fact that male and female were created in the image of God is the evidence that God’s image includes God the Father and God the Mother. It’s very important to know the existence of God the Father and God the Mother because it’s prophesied that God the Father and God the Mother are to appear to give us the water of life in the last days.
The Spirit [God the Father] and the bride [God the Mother] say, "Come!" And let him who hears say, "Come!" Whoever is thirsty, let him come; and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of life. (Revelation 22:17)
Those who have met God the Father and God the Mother can receive the water of life. People who only know God the Father do not know God whom we must press on to know. The World Mission Society Church of God (WMSCOG) receives the water of life from the Spirit and the bride according to the words of the Bible.
Church of God (Witness of Ahnsahnghong) believes Ahnsahnghong as our Savior in the age of the Holy Spirit with the belief in Heavenly Mother.  According to the Bible, God the Father and God the Mother who are the Spirit and the bride are to give us the water of life in this last age of the Holy Spirit.  In order to receive the water of life in this age, we should come toward God the Father and God the Mother. 

A toenail---wmscog

A toenail

It was on one sizzling hot summer day, as if the heat would melt down the road.
My seven-year-old son kept on pestering me to go to the cool fountains in the park.
Thinking that I had to wait in the heat with a towel, for him to have fun in the water, I couldn’t even consider about going.

But of course, my child would never give up.

“Okay… okay… Fine. Let’s go.”

Having a smile ear to ear, my son was full of joy and kept on humming.

When we arrived at the park, seeing him enjoying the cool water, I also felt refreshed and I thought I made the right choice.

“Ouch!”

Checking one of my text messages, I heard a shrieking sound. My son was sitting on the bare ground and crying. When I went close to him, I noticed his toe was bleeding. While I was looking away from him, playing with his shoes off, his toe got stuck in one of the fountains. And trying to get his toe out, his toenail fell off.

I carried him on my back and ran to the ER.
For that small moment, my toes felt so painful as if my own toes were cut off. I was also so anxious. He took an X-ray examination on his toe to make sure he didn’t break any bones.

Fortunately, there weren’t any bones broken. The doctor took off the piece of flesh narrowly hanging on to his toe, and put on some ointment after disinfecting the wound. Though it hurt, my son couldn’t possible cry because he was nervously glancing on me, because he knew he refused to listen to his mother who told him not to take his shoes off.

‘That little toe dressed in a bandage…

How painful would it be?

Oh, I told him to listen to his mother.

No, I had to watch him every single moment….’

I regretted and felt guilty at the same time.

‘This is mother’s heart. Even if there’s a small scar on her child’s body, it is heart-rending.

Seeing just a little toe falling off from his feet really hurts me. I realized how anxious Heavenly Mother must have been seeing her loving children waiting to be sent to this land of death.

It was a natural thing for us to go through for our sins, but our Heavenly Mother sheds tears even today, considering Herself as a sinner.’

Coming back to our house, seeing my child sleeping on my back after being all exhausted from being frightened, I shed tears thinking about our Heavenly Mother.

Though I let Her worry even in Heaven, I still don’t seem to fully repent and always leave a scar on Her heart.

Seeing my foolish self, I couldn’t possibly forget how sorry I was.

I promised myself to change.

Without forgetting Her words that “We must be born again with a flawless faith,” I want to obey all Her words, to become a daughter who can give smiles to Her instead of scars.

Father’s love that I later realized---wmscog

My father raised us; three children, all alone.
And among those children, he loved me most, who resembled him.
During childhood, he used to take me on his motorcycle when he went hunting or fishing.
I also loved to follow him wherever he went.
As I became a junior high, I liked hanging around with my friends instead of spending time with my father.
“Your dad’s here.”
It was when we were having P.E.
I quickly said it wasn’t my father and ran away.
Noticing that I was embarrassed of him, he silently left without calling my name.
From that day, he didn’t visit my school.
As I became a grownup, I started to come home really late.
My father used to save meat dishes that he made for dinner. Then, he would call me to his room and fed me.
With annoyed look and voice, I would go to my room, saying that I was exhausted and sleepy.
In those years, I couldn’t realize.
The love of my father who waited for me spending all night without sleep, making sure the room was warm enough.
There was a time when I received a gallstone operation.
Since I had no mother, it was my father’s duty to look after me.
My gallstone got infected after the operation and had to be hospitalized for a month.
My father would come to the hospital 7 in the morning and went home 11 in the evening.
Though he spent his whole month for me, this immature daughter was annoyed of him being closed to me and thinking that my friends were uncomfortable with him, I would go to places where he was not present.
I would fume and fret to my father who looked after me every day.
I even starved myself saying that I’ve lost my appetite.
My father would then pack some food at home and come to the hospital which took 3 hours by bus.
Worrying that I needed to eat well in order to take strong medicine, he would always prepare the food nice and warm.
Early morning till late night he would only consider me, but I fumed and fretted and was annoyed with him.
When I finally realized my father’s silent love, he was no longer with me.
That regret still remains in my heart thinking that I should have realized sooner.
As time passes by, I realize how deep and wide my father’s love was.
And then I started to think about Heavenly Father.

I see myself how carelessly I considered Heavenly Father’s untiring love, coming to this earth to give us life.

How painful his heart must have been whenever I neglected Father’s love.

I promised myself not to leave regret in my heart again.

As a child who has received Heavenly Father’s great love, I now want to get on his side and become a child who can give him joy.

 

 

Mother's long - sleeve clothes---wmscog

Mother’s long-sleeve clothes

Frankly, I couldn’t understand why my mother had to wear long sleeves all the time.
Even throughout sizzling hot summers, she just had to wear long sleeve clothes.
Since she was satisfied feeding her children rather than herself, all day long she worked in the field for income.
All those sufferings that she had gone through under the sun created lengtigines on her arms, like a tattoo.

Leaving all the heaven’s glory behind, Heavenly Mother dwells with us, all covered with filthy sins.
She forgets all about Her pain when She sees Her children smile.
I now want to realize Her sufferings concealed behind her smiles.
Like Jacob and Issac, I want to be Her joy and Her smile.

We love Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother.

The will of God or the command of an emperor?---wmscog

Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. (Matthew 7:21)
Even new Christians commonly know the Ten Commandments. The fourth commandment of the Ten is “Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.” However today, nearly all churches keep Sunday, the first day of the week, as the Lord’s Day instead of Saturday, the seventh day. Some even make illogical claims and absurd arguments such as “every day is the Sabbath day” or “Sunday is the seventh day.”
2,000 years ago, not only Jesus and his disciples but also the apostles and saints of the Early Church did not submit to Sunday Legislation enacted by a Roman Emperor and kept the Sabbath day to the end even though they were persecuted and martyred. They stuck to their noble faith while fleeing into the desert and mountains lest their religious purity should be trampled. But many people followed the Sunday Law of the Emperor. They threw away the Sabbath day of Jesus like an old shoe and kept the Sunday service. In return, they were given considerable power from the Roman Emperor.
Whose command should we follow? Will you obey the will of God whatever people say while expecting the kingdom of heaven? Or, will you submit to the command of the Emperor and continue to make vain efforts by keeping the Sunday service?
Are you still walking the opposite way to the will of God in accordance with the command of the specter of a Ruler who cried out for Sunday? Or, are you living a faith life in a vegetative state due to the influence of large churches and spineless denominations which have continuously repeated the division and unification according to the interests of people. If you are living a life of such lukewarm faith, how about leaving the contaminated church in search of the truth?
You will have to think a lot which faith will be considered to be obedient to the will of God, and reflect on the goal of your faith. Then, you will be able to realize the fact that the Sabbath day and the Passover should be kept according to the will of God.

Why did he have to come as a son?---wmscog

“But do not have God speak to us or we will die.”
The people of Israel cried out to Moses. They felt they could die because the words of God sounded like the great thunder and lightning and the trumpet to them. They’re scared. When they heard the words of God from Moses who alone was able to hear the voice of God, they could follow the will of God (in the Desert of Sinai at the time of Exodus.)
“It thundered or an angel spoke to him.”
Many people heard the words of God but they said it had thundered. But, the Apostle Paul heard the voice of God correctly and wrote: “I have glorified it, and will glorify it again.” Through John, people could listen to the words of God correctly (at Ephesus in around 90 A.D.)
Both in the time of Exodus and in around 90 A.D., people were not able to hear the voice of Almighty God. As creatures, they could not bear the words of God, which sounded like the thunder and lightning. For this reason, God came to the earth as a man in the appearance of a creature, hiding His power and glory.
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he [Jesus] will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. (Isaiah 9:6)
And He let God’s children know the way to salvation one by one and set examples for us. Putting Him in the shoes of the Son like us, He taught how we can follow the words of God to get salvation.
I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. (John 13:15)
Jesus set the example of ‘being baptized’ as a sign of salvation (Matthew 3:13-16.) And He also set the example of ‘keeping the Sabbath’ for us to get the blessing of rest (Luke 4:16,) and the example of ‘observing the Passover’ which promises the blessing of the forgiveness of sins (Matthew 26:19.) In addition, He asked His children as follows just before He ascended to heaven:
Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. (Matthew 28:19-20)
It's the mind of God. God worried that His children might not be able to follow the way of salvation. So He carefully set examples one by one. Can you hear the words of God? “Please, follow the way I walked. Let’s go to our hometown -- the kingdom of heaven.”


Please come to Church of God (witness of Ahnsahnghong) that believes Father Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother, the Spirit and the bride to get the eternal life and the salvation through the Passover the New Covenant.

Sunday was kept because collections(offerings) were made on the first day of every week?

Some claim that the Sabbath day of the Old Testament has been changed to Sunday in the time of the New Testament because collections (offerings) were made on the first day of every week or every Sunday by quoting 1 Corinthians 16:2.
Now about the collection for God's people: Do what I told the Galatian churches to do. On the first day of every week (Every Sunday: GNT), each one of you should set aside a sum of money in keeping with his income, saving it up, so that when I come no collections will have to be made. (1 Corinthians 16:1-2)
I feel pity for their efforts to find evidence of the Sunday service which is not found on the Bible. First, the above verse is not a record of worshiping on Sundays and giving offerings. The Apostle Paul said, “When I come no collections will have to be made (KJV: There be no gatherings when I come).” If it had been a regular collection, it should have been made whether the Apostle Paul came or not, shouldn’t it? If fact, the collection mentioned above was a special offering for helping out the Jerusalem Church.
There is no need for me to write to you about this service to the saints… So I thought it necessary to urge the brothers to visit you in advance and finish the arrangements for the generous gift [KJV: bounty] you had promised. Then it will be ready as a generous gift, not as one grudgingly given… This service that you perform is not only supplying the needs of God's people but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God. (2 Corinthians 9:1-12)
It’s wrong to insist that it’s evidence that the Sunday service was kept by citing the verse which is not about a regular offering but a special offering.  In addition, it’s also not a record of worshiping on the first day of every week. On the contrary, it proves that they worked on the first day of every week. It’s written, “On the first day of every week, each one of you should set aside a sum of money in keeping with his income (GNT: Every Sunday each of you must put aside some money, in proportion to what you have earned).” It means that they must put aside some money, in proportion to what they have earned on Sunday. To earn money on the first day of the week, they must have worked on Sundays, mustn’t they? In other words, the verse of matter means that they must put aside some money earned on the first day of every week in advance not to be in hurry to collect the special offering when the Apostle Paul comes.
However, those who try to find evidence of the Sunday service in any way claim that ‘collections (offerings)’ were made on the ‘first day of every week’ by extracting only the two phrases ‘collections’ and ‘the first day of every week.’ How strange their way of interpretation is! I suppose that they cannot see the Sabbath recorded about 135 times in the Bible (80 times in the Old Testament and 55 times in the New Testament) because they read the Bible in such a strange way.

Church of God (Witness of Ahnsahnghong) believes Ahnsahnghong as our Savior in the age of the Holy Spirit with the belief in Heavenly Mother.  According to the Bible, God the Father and God the Mother who are the Spirit and the bride are to give us the water of life in this last age of the Holy Spirit.  In order to receive the water of life in this age, we should come toward God the Father and God the Mother. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Evidence of God's children---wmscog

God commanded to keep the seventh day as the holy feast of God.
“Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘These are my appointed feasts, the appointed feasts of the LORD, which you are to proclaim as sacred assemblies. ” ‘There are six days when you may work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of rest, a day of sacred assembly. You are not to do any work; wherever you live, it is a Sabbath to the LORD… (Leviticus 23:2-3)
The Sabbath day is a sign between God and the children of God.
“Say to the Israelites, ‘You must observe my Sabbaths. This will be a sign between me and you [God and God's people] for the generations to come, so you may know that I am the LORD, who makes you holy. ” ‘Observe the Sabbath, because it is holy to you. Anyone who desecrates it must be put to death; whoever does any work on that day must be cut off from his people… (Exodus 31:13-14)
I [God] gave them my decrees and made known to them my laws, for the man who obeys them will live by them. Also I gave them my Sabbaths as a sign between us, so they would know that I the LORD made them holy. (Ezekiel 20:11-12)
Those who do not keep the Sabbath day profane God, which is the evidence of false prophets.
Her priests do violence to my law and profane my holy things; they do not distinguish between the holy and the common; they teach that there is no difference between the unclean and the clean; and they shut their eyes to the keeping of my Sabbaths [they ignore the Sabbath: GNT], so that I am profaned among them. (Ezekiel 22:26)

A Letter from the Son, and Mother’s Reply---wmscog

A Letter from the Son, and Mother’s Reply

There was an immature son who wrote a letter to his mother.

On the header it reads, “I love you Mom.”

Mom, I know that you are having hard times with me.

I always go out and play and never help you. I’m sorry, Mom.

But I know you’ll forgive me, right?

Mom. I love you so much. 

Do you also love me? 

Mom, even if you don’t love me, I’m really thankful that you’re my Mom.

Mom, I love you!

Of course the son wrote an unaffected and pure letter.

Then, the mother replied to his letter:

My son, do you know?

I love you not because you are the only one in this world.

It’s because I love you, and that’s why you are the only one in this world.

My son, do you know?

Even if I lost everything in this world, I don’t want to lose you for this world.

My son, do you know?

The only reason why I exist in this world?

That’s because of you.

I love you always.

From General Pastor’s sermon: ‘God is Love’

Always loving these immature children, and only considering us,

I give thanks, praises and eternal glory to our Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother.

I no longer want to be an immature child, and want to confess,

“Father and Mother, I love you!”

 

The greatest miracle in the world---wmscog

The greatest miracle in the world

Which one is the greater miracle: Rising from the dead or living eternally?

Of course, the latter is. Even if someone rises from the dead, he will die again some day. Eternal living is really the greatest miracle in the world. “Eternal life”– the area which has not been accomplished even by the state-of-the-art medical science and which will not be fulfilled by men. 2,000 years ago, God let mankind, who were destined to die, know how to experience the miracle of living forever. He allowed it through the Passover of the new covenant.

Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life … (John 6:53-54)

And he said to them, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer… “This [Bread] is my body … This cup [Wine] is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you. (Luke 22:15-20)

However, Satan, who watched thirstily for a chance to destroy God’s work, abolished the Passover at the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD.

Christ Ahnsahnghong, God who has come again, said as follows to let us know what the greatest miracle in the world is and how important the Passover is:

People say that the manna which came down from heaven in the wilderness is a miracle, and they say that raising Lazarus from the dead is a miracle.

Yet, in the eyes of God, neither being cured of diseases nor rising from the dead is a miracle.

All people including Lazarus and those who ate the manna in the wilderness died.

However, those who eat and drink the flesh and blood of Jesus will live even though they die; and they will never die.

Obtaining eternal life by eating the bread of life!

Giving life through the Passover to those who are to die; there is no greater miracle than this.

The most important thing to us is the flesh and blood of Jesus, which was allowed through His death on the cross.

In this age, we should not seek miracles and signs.

We should seek eternal life.

We must understand deeply and cherish this covenant of life God gives us, and must always give thanks to God.”

I pray that all people around the world will experience the greatest miracle in the world: living forever with the flesh and blood God which was allowed through His death on the cross.

Please come to Church of God (witness of Ahnsahnghong) that believes Father Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother, the Spirit and the bride to get the eternal life and the salvation through the Passover the New Covenant.

 

 

… until the kingdom of God comes ---wmscog

… until the kingdom of God comes

Those who slander the World Mission Society Church of God (Witness of Ahnsahnghong) claim that they do not need to celebrate the Passover of the new covenant by citing Luke 22:

For I tell you, I will not eat it again until it finds fulfillment in the kingdom of God.” After taking the cup, he gave thanks and said, “Take this and divide it among you. For I tell you I will not drink again of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.” (Luke 22:16-28)

They say, “Since Jesus said that he would not keep the Passover until the kingdom of God comes, it’s not necessary to keep the Passover.” In other words, they say that the Passover must be observed in the kingdom of heaven because the kingdom of God means the kingdom of heaven.

At first glance, it appears that the Passover of the new covenant should not be celebrated on this earth according to their argument. It sounds plausible but given just a wee bit of thought, you can realize how non-biblical their insistence is.

 

What is the Passover of the new covenant for? It is the feast through which we can have the forgiveness of sins (Matthew 26:17-28.) If their claim is correct, sinners who are not entitled to enter the kingdom of heaven will celebrate the Passover at the kingdom of heaven (Revelation 14:5.) It is nonsense! Since they do not know about the basics of the feasts, they claim non-biblical claims such as they will celebrate the Passover in heaven or they will receive the forgiveness of sins there.

What does “the kingdom of God” mean?

He told them this parable: “Look at the fig tree and all the trees. When they sprout leaves, you can see for yourselves and know that summer is near. Even so, when you see these things happening, you know that the kingdom of God is near. (Luke 21:29-31)

Jesus taught in parables that “the kingdom of God” is near “when the fig tree sprouts leaves.” Also, the book of Matthew clearly reveals when the kingdom of God comes through the parable of the fig tree.

Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it [he] is near, right at the door. (Matthew 24:32-33)

From these two verses, we can know that “the kingdom of God comes when the Son of Man or the Second Coming Jesus comes in the flesh.” Therefore, the words of Jesus “I will not drink again of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes (Luke 22:18)” mean that He will keep the Passover when He appears a second time. It implies that only the Second Coming Jesus is able to establish the Passover.

Then, what does it mean that the World Mission Society Church of God celebrates the Passover? It is evidence that the Second Coming Jesus, who is the only One who can establish the Passover, has come. That is, the kingdom of God has already come.

Will you still insist that the Passover should be kept in heaven while seeing and hearing every prophecy of the Bible and its fulfillment like this? You cannot enter the kingdom of heaven without having the forgiveness of sins on this earth. You still have an opportunity: You have to know the Second Coming Christ who established the Passover, before it’s too late.

 

Unrequited Love---wmscog

Unrequited Love

By haru

The saddest love
While being eyeable, the desire remains
Being awake or asleep, longing never stops
Love that is stifled with yearning


Love that is unalterable
Love that is inextricable
Love that is unstoppable though disregarded
Love that is steadfast over time
Love that is never hideous without being comprehended


Love that laughs and cries for a sinner
Love that trusts, though the promise is broken
Love that moves to tears for an apology
Love that is engraved in the heart, even for a halfhearted gratitude
Love that waits, though the love for the world is greater
Mother’s unrequited love is solely for the sinner


Mother’s love becomes the spring sunlight, and warmly covers my heart
Mother’s love becomes the rain drops on a cool summer day, and moistens my thirsty soul
Mother’s love becomes the sweet fruit on an autumn day, and fills my hungry soul
Mother’s love becomes the warm blanket on a winter day, and melts my icy soul


At last, because of Mother’s everlasting love

This sinner returns to Mother’s arms

I repent

I thank

And I love

A Child---wmscog

A Child

The toddlers in Zion have one thing in common.
After service, one child would run to his mother saying, “Mom!!” out loud.
Another child would follow and search with that distinct voice, and when the child finds his mother, he would run and be embraced his mother’s arms.
When the 2-year-old twin toddlers saw their mother, they smiled as if they had been on top of the world, and kept on saying “mom;” wanting to be embraced her individually.
Seeing them acting this way, at first I thought they were too into themselves trying to find their mothers.
I actually thought it was very surprising that they were always so eager to see their mothers.
But now I bet I know the reason.


Longing always for Heavenly Mother, we all wish to embraced in her warm arms.
All of this eagerness is filled in the children’s image.
I should always think and long for Heavenly Mother like a child.
If it was something that Heavenly Mother said, I solely want to obey and give joy to Mother.

Granny’s lullaby---wmscog

Granny’s lullaby

When I was on vacation, I visited my maternal grandma’s house.
My mother is one of eight children.
That’s why there are so many of us when we all gather together.
This all happened at dawn, when we couldn’t get into sleep because of tropical night phenomenon.
I guess it was too hot, because my cousin’s child cried so loud that the house resounded.
My grandma who was sleeping next to me said,
“Evie! I think she is hot. Why don’t you keep this fan next to her?”
Hearing her advisement, I started to worry and thought,
‘What if she really takes the fan? Do I need to sweat all night in this tropical night phenomenon?’
“Oh, she’s fine.”
Listening to her reply, it gave me a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, my grandma went to their room and took her child from her.
The child seemed to be comfortable in grandma’s arms because she stopped crying.


Then, I started to realize.
The love that I felt from my grandma was similar from the love of our Heavenly Mother.
I also realized I was really lacking and arrogant.
Though the child was crying, just because of my small self-centeredness, I didn’t give up the fan for the child.
It really made me feel embarrassed.
From now on, I want to get rid of my selfishness; only considering my ease, and want to become a child who shares the love that I have received from our Heavenly Mother. 

Holding Mom's Hand on Tight---wmscog

Holding Mom’s Hand on Tight

When I was a child, I tagged after my mom since I didn’t know from nothing.
This all happened when our family went to a mart.
Losing myself into dolls, forgetting all about her, I was fiddling with the doll.
As I turned my back after a while, my mom wasn’t there.
“Mommy! Where are you?”
No answer came back.
Again I shouted out loud, and people stared at me while passing by.
I couldn’t see her in none of the places in the mart.
As I cried and searched for my mom for 30 minutes, I heard a dim voice.
I was sure it was her voice.
With a sudden, I stood up though I was sinking with no strength.
As I followed the way where the voice came, I saw my mom; that I truly wanted to find, at a far distant.
“Mel!”
“Mommy! Waaahh!!!”
“Where were you sweetie? I was looking for you the whole time!”
“Waaah!!!! I was also looking for you!”
“There, there. Let’s hold our hands and never let go, okay? Come here, I’ll give you a hug.”
Mom’s hands were trembling.
That feeling is still in my memory.
Thinking that I was lost, how eagerly would she have been looking for me.
When I think about that incident, I still can feel mom’s love.
Of course I can never leave out the sacrifice and love of my Heavenly parents.
They have come to this earth and held my hands that I let go.
Father and Mother, I truly thank You.
I love You.

I give thanks to Heavenly Mother’s love

On the train, there was a middle-aged man sitting on the opposite side of me.
Exhausted face, deep wrinkles, skinny figure in a shabby clothes…
He really looked fatigued.
Just by seeing him made me think, “Our lives as sinners are tough, but is it really tough like that?”
He had his reasons.
The people’s eyes were fixed to the man’s son.
His age supposed to be young with spirit.
But being mentally challenged, the son was into his own world, and his father was holding his hand.
Suddenly, my eyes welled up.
Though the father looked so exhausted, his face brightened up whenever he saw his son.
Smiling as if he had gained the whole entire world, I could sense his love and sacrifice.
I felt Heavenly Mother’s love who came from heaven to this earth, to save me, who was about to die with spiritual incurable illness.
All those years that she has spent, day and night, praying with tears without rest to save me.
Enduring all mocks and scorns she would just embrace my illness in a time of pain.
However, this immature sinner’s eyes were covered with sins, and I couldn’t realize Mother’s sacrifice or know Her love.
Oh my Mother!
Though She is spending all those years with pain, She would always show bright smiles in front of Her children.
Mother’s great and holy love and sacrifice blossoms my heart with repentance.
My holy Heavenly Mother, I truly bow down to You and give You thanks and eternal glory.
And I pray to You…
If this child lets go of your hand, please hold my hand back with compassion.

Why did Adam and Eve die?---wmscog

Many Christians often say they preach the gospel.  However, the core of the heavenly gospel that Jesus came to this earth and sent Himself is very the Passover.  Church of God delivers the same teachings as the early church.  Please come to Church of God and keep the Passover. (Matt.26:17)

There lived a happy couple, Adam and Eve, under the love and protection of God in the Garden of Eden. One day, the cunning serpent approached them. The serpent deceived Eve to eat the fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil forbidden by God. She also gave some to her husband and he ate it. As a result, they were expelled from the happy Garden of Eden due to the sin of disobedience and lived painful lives. And they died in the end according to the words of God.
Even non-Christians will know the story of the Garden of Eden. The Bible says that death came to all people on this earth due to disobedience of Adam and Eve (Romans 5:12.)
Are there any ways to recover life? Numerous Christian churches emphasize faith, shouting “We can be saved as long as we have faith in God! Do you believe?” Of course, we can have the promise of salvation through faith. Then, didn’t Adam and Eve believe in God when they ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil? Yes, they did. Adam and Eve and even their descendents had faith in God. If such insistence that “we can be saved as long as we have faith” is correct, Adam and Eve should have not died and live happily in the Garden of Eden until now. This shows that faith alone does not necessarily lead to salvation.
Adam and Eve believed in God. What didn’t they believe?
They did not fully believe in the words of God: “You must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die.” They suspected the words of God with their own thoughts such as “Well, that’s not gonna happen. How can I die if I eat from it? It’s good for food and pleasing to my eyes.”
God wants us to have such faith that we can believe in the words of God absolutely, even the part which may not be possible to believe with the human thoughts.  God judges our faith through the “Passover of the new covenant.”
Jesus said to them, "I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. (John 6:53-54)
So the disciples did as Jesus had directed them and prepared the Passover… While they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, "Take and eat; this is my body." Then he took the cup, gave thanks and offered it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you. This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. (Matthew 26:19-28)
God promised that “those who keep the Passover have eternal life.” What will you do? Are you going to reject observing the Passover with the thought “How can we have eternal life with such Passover bread and wine?”

Adam and Eve were kicked out of Eden although they believed in God to the end. Empty shouting such as “I believe in Jesus only” is not faith! It’s no more than autohypnosis. True faith is to believe in and follow the words of God—even something that is hard to believe with the thoughts of men.
