Shincheonji Teaching,
John 8:
The Truth and Freedom

| Shincheonji is giving them the opportunity to be born again by giving them the truth. |
Main reference: John 8:32-55
Jesus said to the Jews “You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free”. The Jews replied to this, saying, “We are Abraham's descendants and have never been slaves of anyone”. Then Jesus said, “Everyone who sins is a slave to sin”. Then he said, “A slave has no permanent place in the family, but a son belongs to it forever. So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed”. He also said, “I know you are Abraham's descendants. Yet you are ready to kill me”. Jesus said again to the Jews, who were Abraham’s descendants, “I am telling you what I have seen in the Father's presence, and you do what you have heard from your father”.
Jesus said to the Jews that His father was different from the father of the Jews and that His father was God but the father of the Jews was the Devil. He was not talking about physical fathers, but saying that the spiritual fathers of the two were different. This means that although both Jesus and the Jews had bodies of flesh, the spirits in them and their fathers were different.
Even today, although people of The Christian Council of Korea (CCK) and congregation members of Shincheonji have bodies of flesh, they have different spirits and spiritual seeds in them, so their fathers are different as well. That is why people of CCK are persecuting and trying to kill congregation members of Shincheonji and have declared war against Shincheonji. If we make known the truth to them, the truth will set them free. We are aware that as they do not have the truth in them, they were unable to become people of freedom, instead, they became slaves to sin and therefore became our enemies. It is only possible for them to be free from sin and to escape from the Devil, their father, if the truth is in them.
Shincheonji is giving them the opportunity to be born again by giving them the truth. I am not speaking of my own accord and the words I say are not just my own. Rather, the Father who sent me commanded me to say these words. Now is the time of the end of Spiritual Israel and the time of re-creation. Only when one is harvested, sealed and born again, the true God will be his/her father and one who is born again will be a child of God.
