The Bible Explained: All the Verses of Revelation Are Connected to the Reality of Our Times

In only two days, the seminar on chapter 1 of Revelation by Chairman Lee exceeded 300,000 views on YouTube around the world, including 5,000 views from Christian leaders. From Southern Africa alone, more than 500 pastors participated in the launch of the online seminars and will follow the study course to be completed this December.

Beginning with Chairman Man Hee Lee’s statement, a round of weekly seminars titled, “Testimony on Prophecy and Fulfillment of Revelation, God’s New Covenant,” are currently being held by Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony. The Seminars which have been running from October 18th are set to end on the December 27th.

The meanings of the prophecy (of Revelation) and what is fulfilled in reality according to the prophecy is what I am making known to the churches worldwide,” said Chairman Lee. The new lessons are uploaded and shared every Monday and Thursday at 10am.

Regarding the purpose of the seminars on Revelation as a book of the Bible that prophesied about the future of the Christian world with apocalyptic warnings, Chairman Lee emphasized that what would be shared is in accordance with the words of the Bible, which is “to give you this testimony for the churches” (Rev 22:16) by “the one who heard and saw” (Rev 22:8).

According to his explanation, the key to understanding the book of Revelation begins with the meaning of revelation. It is “to open and to show (what was sealed and unseen),” and there is a point in time when the prophecies recorded in the past are fulfilled (revealed) in reality.

It is recorded in chapter 1 of Revelation that John (the apostle) sends Jesus’ letters to the seven churches in Asia, which is described as one of the mysteries of the book of Revelation (Rev 1:4, 1:20). Chairman Lee explained that the record of sending letters to the seven churches is a prophecy and it is fulfilled in reality at the time of the second coming of Jesus. Accordingly, the mysteries of the Bible were not known when the book of Revelation was written, but are known only by “the one who heard and saw all the events of the book when the record of prophecy is fulfilled in reality.”

Since August 2021, 25 African churches with 10,000 members from signed MOUs with Shincheonji Church of Jesus. The church stated that 18 additional churches will sign MOUs to raise awareness of understanding this era and promote the development of their lives of faith.

Shincheonji Church Hosts Lectures on Bible’s Revelation amid End-Time Prophecy Mayhem

Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony, will hold a series of weekly seminars unraveling the biblical book of Revelation as misinformation around its prophecies fuels Covid-19 vaccine hesitancy across the globe.

The Bible course titled, “Testimony on Prophecy and Fulfillment of Revelation, God’s New Covenant,” will run from October 18th to December 27th and will provide an explanation of the content of every chapter of Revelation, including details on the characters named in the prophecies and the timing of the events.

The church, founded in South Korea, attracted as many as 1,700 pastors and 28,000 Christians from all over the world to its lectures in August. Its Chairman Lee Man-hee will lead the Bible series and has said that he is a witness who saw and heard all the events of the book fulfilled in reality, as described in Revelation 22:16.

The number of participants at this time reflects their interest and effort to understand the words of Revelation consistently with the words of the rest of the books of the Bible,

Mr. Kim Shin-chang, general director of the International Mission Department of Shincheonji Church, said.

The Bible seminars come as the coronavirus pandemic creates uncertainty around the future for people throughout the world. While progress has been made to inoculate the global population the efforts of health professionals are being hampered by misunderstanding in the religious world. In US, some Christian denominations are preaching that the Covid-19 vaccine is the “mark of the beast”. This apocalyptic biblical term is from Revelation 13 and is usually interpreted as being attached to Satan.

Additionally, people regardless of religious background frequently encounter the question – will Covid-19 bring about “the end of the world”?

Shincheonji Church’s lectures, to be broadcasted live on YouTube, will help those grappling with these questions by teaching the true meaning of the book of Revelation and explaining how the prophecies, expressed in parables or figurative language, have been physically fulfilled in the world today, according to the Bible. While Revelation is written figuratively, describing real-world events, its content is usually explained through human thoughts and non-biblical speculative theories which have misguided believers and instigated social disorder, according to the church.
