Shincheonji Study: Word of Truth of God


<Shincheonji Study>
Word of Truth of God


 


Main reference: John 1:1, 17:17


The word is true food for our spirits and souls. It is God’s seed and God himself. It is also equated with the holy spirit. As this word enters us, it renews our hearts and spirits, and this is how we can become holy. For the same reason, God likens the word unto the water of life that washes our hearts and spirits (Jn 7:37-38).

Jesus, who was the word, referred to himself as the way, the truth, and the life. Jesus also stated that people could come to the Father only through him (Jn 14:6). People without the word do not have God, Jesus, life, and light (refer to Jn 1:4).

They are not born of God’s seed (Lk 8:11). They are the children of darkness (refer to 1 Thes 5:1-8). People without the word are actually not born from God.

It is common sense among Christians that people born of God’s seed become the holy ones and the sons of God.

  • John 1:1
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

  • John 17:17
Sanctify them by  the truth; your word is truth.
