Shincheonji Story

In Rev 3:12, Who is he who overcomes?
First, why don't we open the Revelation and check he who overcomes.

• Rev 3:12

He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he shall go out no more. I will write on him the name of My God and the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God. And I will write on him My new name.

There once was a young man who was born with the light of the heavens.

While praying, he met a star for three days and through the guidance of this star, met a person from the heavens. From this time he pledged his loyalty to God with his own blood and began his life of faith. While carrying on his life of faith, he returned to his hometown in the countryside and stayed there for the next 7 years. This was during the time of “Saemaeul Movement” (New Village Movement) which was a modernization movement in Korea under President Park Chung-Hee.

In the 7th year, he greeted the Lord who came amongst the clouds in the heavens and was guided to the Tabernacle Temple by the words of the Lord’s commands. This was the church he was previously carrying out his life of faith. As it is recorded in Rv 2 and 3, he sent letters to the Tabernacle Temple's seven messengers, also called “the seven stars” in accordance with the Lord’s command to urge repentance. But the seven messengers simply ignored him and the content of the letters and did not accept any of it.

The seven messengers of the seven stars made a covenant with God with their blood. They vowed to be loyal to God with blood drawn from cutting their wrists in 1966, which amounted to 2 ringer bottles. This blood of the covenant was used to mark the back of the Certificates of Duty with crosses given to their congregation members. They however, broke this covenant made with God and instead made a new covenant with the Presbyterian and seven pastors from different denominations (which were from seven of the biggest denominations in Korea) therefore becoming a part of them. This all took place in 1981. The pastors from the seven denominations established the “Stewardship (Chung-Ji-Gi) Education Center” through the strength of the authority of a certain past President. This was an institution that trained pastors from all over Korea and was an organization that controlled Korean Christian leaders with this authority.

Under the pretense of a “cult-cleansing” movement, the seven pastors from this organization approached the Tabernacle Temple, (established through a covenant between God and the seven messengers), and devoured it by exercising their authority. On one Sunday early that year, these gentile pastors gathered all congregation members of the Tabernacle Temple (including the 80 branch churches throughout Korea) at its main temple located in the city of Gwacheon. They then made all congregation members swear an oath (marking their foreheads and right hands) acknowledging their denomination, church laws and doctrines. This was the event of the congregation members of the Tabernacle Temple receiving the mark of the beast and worshipping it, as described in Rv 13. That day, the head of the Stewardship Education Center had all the congregation members stand up and take an oath with their right hands to acknowledge the Presbyterian denomination, its laws and doctrines and anointed them on their foreheads. This was the event of receiving the mark on their foreheads and right hands.
