Title: Religion and Law

• Main Reference: Ex 34:28, Dt 4:13, Jn 12:48, Jn 8
  (Reference: Article 20 Clauses 1 and 2 of the Korean Constitution)

There are various kinds of people and religions in the world, and there are the laws of heaven and the laws of the world. The laws of the world vary slightly per country.

Jesus came not to abolish the law but to fulfill it (Mt 5:17-18). Believers must keep both the laws of heaven and the laws of the earth.

Whenever a generation ends due to its corruption and a new era comes, there are big changes and events that take place; this is why the word “salvation” exists. Just like the laws of Moses that came about 4,000 years ago (refer to Ex 34:28, Dt 4:13), the words of Jesus, who is the living stone (1 Pt 2:4), become the laws of the New Testament because those words judge on the last day (Jn 12:48). 

Jesus’ words of the new covenant are the New Testament, the Book of Revelation. Because it is written that those who add to or take away from Revelation will not go to heaven but will become cursed (Rv 22:18-19), the Book of Revelation becomes the law of the New Testament. 

At the time of the fulfillment of Revelation, the Book of Revelation is the law. But on this earth, there are laws of the earth—people are punished according to the laws of the earth.

Moses and Jesus received the authority to judge, and the shepherd whom Jesus sent today also received the authority to judge (white stone, Rv 2:17). However, this authority is not used to judge the matters of the world. 

He received the authority to judge things of heaven, the religious matters. Just as one receives the authority to judge the things of the world after mastering the laws of the world, the judge of heaven must master the laws of heaven, the Bible, and receive the revelation. 

At the First Coming, Jesus, the Son, did what he saw his Father does (Jn 5:19). Just as such, the messenger whom Jesus sent at the Second Coming does what he sees Jesus does. Therefore, the judgment is not an arbitrary one but it is done according to the Lord’s will. 

But the work of saving people’s lives comes first before putting them to death.
