Christ Flesh and Blood?

OK not for nothing but i'm not going to eat anyones flesh or drink anyones blood.... so it was a relief to find that this was a symbolic meaning...

While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take and eat; this is my body.” Then he took a cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, saying,“Drink from it, all of you

-Matthew 26:26-27

On the first day of the Festival of Unleavened Bread, the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Where do you want us to make preparations for you to eat the Passover?

He replied, “Go into the city to a certain man and tell him, ‘The Teacher says: My appointed time is near. I am going to celebrate the Passover with my disciples at your house.’” So the disciples did as Jesus had directed them and prepared the Passover.

-Matthew 26: 17-19

Only through the Passover can we have Christ's flesh and blood. Therefore Passover is the only way to have Eternal life!

End of ages?

As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately. “Tell us,” they said, “when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?” Jesus answered: “Watch out that no one deceives you. For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and will deceive many. You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come.

-Matthew 24:3-6

At this time the disciples were so curious to find out about the end of days. Here they prompted a few questions... when will this happen, what will be the sign of your coming, and when is the end of ages? Then this wasn't going to occur 2,000 years ago it will actually occur in the last age! but how can we recognize the 2nd coming of Christ? because God himself even spoke of false prophets trying to push us away making us believe lies? Actually at this time there are so many saying they are the second coming Christ we have been waiting for... but how can one truly know?!?

Zion - Part 2

Jesus said to them, “Very truly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. (John 6:53) so in order for God to be in us and for us to share Christ’s blood we need his flesh and blood? Matthew 26: 17-28 shows us we need to keep the Passover! This is the only way that Christ can be in us and us in him.

Once, on being asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied, “The coming of the kingdom of God is not something that can be observed, nor will people say, ‘Here it is,’ or ‘There it is,’ because the kingdom of God is in your midst.” Luke 22:15-20

At that time only Christ was among them!! Christ = kingdom of Heaven! Even Matthew 26 says Christ will not eat it again until the Kingdom Comes again…

In Matthew 24 Christ clearly speaks of a second coming. But where is going to be the designated place that Kingdom of Heaven will come?

“The Redeemer will come to Zion” Isa 59:22 , second coming Christ will come to Zion. But Christ coming also means the coming of Kingdom of Heaven! Then Zion should be the place the savior will come… then we must all search for Zion!!

Is Faith alone enough??

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life - John 3:16

Through this one verse we can understand that God is true! Simply by this verse, like seriously with just this one verse. People are so quick to show this one exact verse but what about the rest of the bible??

Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on them - John 3:36

I have seen these two verses many times in my life of faith, but why is it people still justify their faith with just these two?.. wouldn't that make our faith in God contained to a fortune cookie?

Yes these are the first steps to believing in God.... But our belief in God is for us to reach to the kingdom of Heaven! (1 pt 2:9) I want to know God! I want to feel close to God; I need to know who God is! But God lets us know who they are through the bible.

We know that we have come to know him if we keep his commands - 1 John 2:3

Then not only by belief can we enter the Kingdom of Heaven we must keep Gods commands... Then were are God's Commands written and set? What are God's Commands exactly???

The Teachings of Heavenly Mother Part 8

Teachings of Mother #8
"When we praise our brothers and sisters, the praise returns to us."

Every teaching of Heavenly Mother is so beautiful. When I went to visit Heavenly Mother in Korea, I saw how she treated every one of us. She always encouraged us; She always shared uplifting and positive words with us. Through Her teachings and Her example, we can see how we should act towards our brothers and sisters in the royal priesthood, and towards our neighbors (Hebrews 7:11, 1 Peter 2:9-10). She has taught us to praise and encourage one another.

Jesus said:

"I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you." (John 13:15)

Apostle Paul said:

"Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ." (1 Cor 11:1)

Second Coming Christ, Christ Ahnsahnghong said:

"I follow Mother." (Rev 14:1-5)

Heavenly Mother is the Messiah--the female Christ who is dwelling on this earth with us. I eagerly want to follow Her actions and examples. She teaches me to love and praise my brothers and sisters--with a smile :)

A "gospel" is not the Gospel.

Jesus Christ preached the good news of the kingdom (Matthew 4:23). In other words, he preached the gospel (Matthew 24:14).

Whenever I would hear the word "gospel" growing up, a vision Karen Clark Sheard, Yolanda Adams, or CeCe Winans would pop-up in my mind. At that time, they were my favorite "gospel" artists. They sang with carisma and gusto, and seemed to believe wholeheartedly in the message they were delivering. Their songs would play on the "gospel" shows on the radio, and I would see their albums in the "gospel" section in music stores along with other "gospel" artists. I, myself, would even sing "gospel" music in the choir, often at the top of my lungs! But, what I have come to learn is that the "gospel" I thought was the gospel, was in fact no gospel at all.

This is what apostle Paul had to say about the gospel:

"...This mystery is that through the gospel the Gentiles are heirs together with Israel, members together of one body, and sharers together in the promise in Christ Jesus." (Ephesians 3:4-7)

According to the Bible, the gospel is a mystery--meaning the reality is not disclosed to everyone. Through the gospel, we become heirs to the Kingdom of Heaven, we become one body, and we come to share in the precious promise of eternal life (1 John 2:25). Then, what is this gospel that Jesus Christ preached so ardently, and of which Apostle Paul proclaimed himself to be a servant?

Christ Ahnsahnghong gave us "aged" wine.

"so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him." (Hebrews 9:28)

"On this mountain the Lord Almighty will prepare a feast of rich food for all peoples, a banquet of aged wine - the best of meats and the finest of wines. On this mountain he will destroy the shroud that enfolds all peoples, the sheet that covers all nations, he will swallow up death forever...In that day they will say, 'Surely this is our God; we trusted in him, and he saved us. this is the Lord, we trusted in him; let us rejoice and be glad in his salvation.'" (Isaiah 25:6-9)

Christ Ahnsahnghong is the One who came into this world covered with the shroud of sin and death, and brought us salvation through the New Covenant Passover. He shared with us the wine of the Passover that had been hidden and aging until now. He is 2nd coming Christ, and I am so proud and thankful to be able to say that He is my God.

As Jesus Christ promised us:

"Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life." (John 6:54),

Christ Ahnsahnghong, 2nd coming Christ, has renewed this precious promise. This promise was not given through what people call "Communion", it was not given through what people call "Eucharist", it was given through Christ's precious sacrifice of the Passover.

But, even though Father Christ Ahnsahnghong was in the world, the world did not understand. He was mocked and ridiculed, and called a heretic, when all he did was preach the Gospel and sacrifice for the lives of sinners. This is the same thing that happened to Jesus Christ 2000 years ago...

"The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it." (John 1:5)

"He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him." (John 1:10-11)

I hope that all people will recognize what Christ Ahnsahnghong has done for us, and that the whole world may follow Him and rejoice in His salvation.

Mercy from Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother

I am so thankful to Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother Jerusalem for opening my eyes to see Them through the scriptures and for carrying me on eagles' wings to meet Them at the Feasts of God. Throughout my time in Zion, They have allowed me to realize that everything is done by Them. Even though I thought that it was by my will that I was saved and that I was given the opportunity to know true God Elohim, I see more clearly that it is by Their grace that I am able to do anything.

Elohim God created everything out of nothing by Their word. Everything was done by Their will and with Their power. (Revelation 4:11) This is why I earnestly desire to give all glory to Elohim--Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother.

More and more each day, I am amazed and overjoyed with Their plan to save the children who sinned against Them in Heaven.

Thankful for the Sabbath

I had an amazing Sabbath day! I am so thankful to be able to keep the Sabbath were Elohim God has promised me rest, blessings, and holiness, and a sign between me and God--that I may know God. Truly Elohim God is the source of knowledge and source of the water of life! (Genesis 1:3, 2 Corinthians 4:6, Genesis 1:26-27, Revelation 22:17)

God spoke:
"Remember the Sabbath Day by keeping it Holy..." (4th Commandment, Exodus 20:8-11)

What happened to the Sabbath? Now, Christian denominations are keeping Sunday worship.
God said..."Remember..."

Now is time to remember the Sabbath day. The Holy Spirit in the flesh, Christ Ahnsahnghong, came as the Bible prophesied and reminded us to "Remember". (John 14:26)

How do I know Christ Ahnsahnghong is the New Name?

Jesus said:

"...and I will also write on him my new name." (Revelation 3:12-13)

"...I will give him a white stone with a new name written on it, known only to him who receives it." (Revelation 2:17)

But, you may say to yourself, "I never heard about this new name. Why did you receive it, and not to me? How do you know Christ Ahnsahnghong is the new name?"

The answer is simple: Only those who are in Zion can know the New Name.

"...So the name of the Lord will be declared in Zion and his praise in Jerusalem when the peoples and the kingdoms assemble to worship the Lord." (Psalms 102:21-22)

According to the Bible, God's name will be given in Zion, the city of God's appointed feasts. Without being in Zion it is impossible to receive the new name. For God said, "...the name of the Lord will be declared in Zion." If it were possible to know the New Name, without being in Zion, then the Bible would be flawed--but the Bible has no flaw. Man's fixed concepts can be flawed, as even science has proven over and over again.

So, before one thinks to slander the name of Christ Ahnsahnghong, one should remember what happened to Jesus and to His followers 2000 years ago. People thought they were crazy. They were mocked and ridiculed. They were put in jail. They were stoned. They were tortured. They were burned to death and crucified. They kept the Feasts of God in catacombs. Why? Because of the Name of Christ.

Now, following the example of sacrifice of our forefathers of faith, I want to proclaim the New Name: Christ Ahnsahgnhong.

Christ Ahnsahnghong rebuilt Zion

Before coming to the World Mission Society Church of God, I didn't know about Zion, and I had no idea that there were certain "Feasts of God" that I should have been keeping (Leviticus 23). Jesus Christ, His disciples, and the early church kept the New Covenant Feasts, but many people are not aware that Christ's laws were changed in the Dark Ages. What most Churches are keeping now are pagan customs that have become traditions (Christmas, Sunday worship, cross reverence and other forms of idolatry, etc.). When Christ Ahnsahnghong came, he rebuilt Zion--something that, according to prophecy, only God can accomplish:

Indeed, of Zion it will be said, "This one and that one were born in her, and the Most High himself will establish her."
(Psalms 87:5)

"For the Lord will rebuild Zion...Let this be written for a future generation..."
(Psalms 102:12-22)

Jesus built Zion at his first coming, but it was destroyed as pagan/secular rituals infiltrated the church. When Christ Ahnsahnghong appeared, he rebuilt the ruined Zion, and that is why I am convinced that Christ Ahnsahnghong is not a mere man. He is God. (John 10:33, Hebrews 9:28)

I am so thankful that Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother have lead me to the Zion, the Church of God, where I can know God and receive the blessing of eternal life.

"...For there (In Zion) the Lord bestows his blessing, even life forevermore." (Psalms 133)

Where is Zion?: Christ Ahnsahnghong reminded us.

Christ Ahnsahnghong reminded us to...(John 14:26).

"Look upon Zion, the city of our festivals; your eyes will see Jerusalem..." (Isaiah 33:20)

What distinguishes Zion?

The place where the Feasts of God are kept is Zion, and in that place, God promised to bestow His blessing of eternal life. (Psalms 132:13-14, Psalms 133:1-3)

What are God's Feasts?

Is Christmas one of God's festivals? No--check your Bibles, you will not find one line about Christmas being celebrated by God's people.

Is Easter one of God's festivals? Well, ask yourself, "Who is 'Easter'?", and then look it up in the enclycopedia. You may be surprised at what you learn. Additionally, I cannot recall ever seeing Jesus Christ mention her ("Easter") in the Bible, nor did the apostles or early saints ever refer to her.

Is Sunday worship one of God's festivals? The early church kept the Sabbath day (the 7th day, which is Saturday). Sunday worship originated in 321CE, as Roman Emperor Constantine (who worshiped the sun-god) endeavored to unite the Christian and pagan churches. He declared Sunday a "holiday", calling it the "venerable day of the sun".

When Isaiah testified about God's Feasts, he was not talking about Christmas, Easter, Sunday worship, or Mardi Gras; these festivals have no promise of God.

Then, what are God's Festivals?

"Have you ever heard of Zion?"

"Have you ever heard of Zion?"

I have met many people who say they have. Some know it as the sanctuary from simulated life in the movie "the Matrix". For others, "Zion" is the title of the catchy and slightly patriotic song Lauryn Hill put out in 1998. Even I can recollect seeing the word "Zion" while riding down the streets of my old neighborhood: "Mount Zion Missionary Baptist Church", "African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church", etc...

But, what is Zion in God's point of view?

"But you have come to Mount Zion, to the heavenly Jerusalem, the city of the living God. You have come to thousands upon thousands of angels in joyful assembly, to the church of the firstborn, whose names are written in heaven. You have come to God, the judge of all men, to the spirits of righteous men made perfect." (Hebrews 12:22-23)

"And I looked, and there before me was the Lamb, standing on Mount Zion, and with him 144,000 who had his name and his Father's name written on their foreheads." (Revelation 14:1)

Before coming to the Church of God, I was never shown these verses before. I didn't know that the true children of God receive salvation from Almighty God only in Mount Zion. Once I learned, Zion became more to me than just a word, or a fairy tale, or a name to give ones child. Zion became essential. Zion became my sactuary; it is where God promised to protect me from all disasters.

The location of Zion was top-secret and classified--hidden and restricted. Now, the location has been disclosed. Christ Ahnsahnghong let me know where the true Zion is. I want to share what I learned...

Christ Ahnsahnghong is God Almighty

"Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life..." (John 6:54)

This is good news!

Christ Ahnsahnghong came to give us the good news of eternal life. By EATING Jesus' flesh and blood, we can have eternal life. Therefore, Jesus' flesh and blood is the reality of the tree of life (Genesis 3:22). He allowed us to eat his flesh and drink his blood through the New Covenant Passover (Matthew 26:17-28).

"...I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer." (Luke 22:15)

Why did Christ eagerly desire to EAT the Passover with his apostles? He eagerly wanted them to EAT from the Tree of Life.

During the dark ages, the Truth of Life was hidden again, then only who can reveal it? Only God Almighty.

Christ Ahnsahnghong revealed the Passover that was hidden, allowing us to eat from the Tree of Life again. He alone did what only God Almighty can do. That is why I am convinced, without a doubt, that Christ Ahnsahnghong is God Almighty. No matter what anyone says--He is God!

Christ Ahnsahnghong brought to light what was hidden.

It is written:

Jesus spoke all these things to the crowd in parables; he did not say anything to them without using a parable. So was fulfilled what was spoken through the prophet:

"I will open my mouth in parables,

I will utter things hidden since the

creation of the world." (Matthew 13:34)

What was the hidden since the creation of the world?

"...in the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil." (Genesis 2:9)

There were two trees in the Garden of Eden. The tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. There is a lot of talk about how Adam and Eve ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, but what was the characteristic of that tree?

"...but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die." (Genesis 2:16)

The tree of the knowledge of good and evil brought death to us (Genesis 3:1-6, Romans 5:12). Even from infancy, as a Christian, I had learned about this story. But there is something more shocking than death! There was another tree in the garden all along: a parable, hidden in plain sight.

"And the Lord God said, "The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat and live forever." (Genesis 3:22)

If we EAT from the tree of life, we can live forever. We can have eternal life! This is the most important news--more shocking than death! This is good news!

Christ Ahnsahnghong is the only one who revealed to us this mystery; he explained the parable to us and has lead us to the reality of the tree of life.

What is the reality?

Today...

Today, I hear prisoners groaning in the chains of death.
Tomorrow there will be no more death.
Today I hear people mourning their losses.
Tomorrow there will be no more mourning.
Today, I see people crying, even as disaster after disaster overtake them.
Tomorrow there will be no more crying.
Today, as I look around this world, I see many in pain.
Tomorrow there will be no more pain.

Little did I know before, but all of our suffering and pain and death were on account of the old order, as no one could attain perfection--we could not become the eternal beings--through the blood of sheep or calves or goats (Hebrews 7:11, Hebrews 8:7-13). Therefore, our merciful Father came giving us His body and His blood, in the Order of Mechizedek. He came with the unconditional eternal life-giving law, the New Covenant Passover (Luke 22:7-20).

He promised us:

"Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life." (John 6:54)

Whoever keeps the Passover has eternal life; this is God's unconditional promise! Christ Ahnsahnghong reminded us to keep the Passover and is leading us to the place where there is no more death, mourning, crying, or pain.

Church of God: One Body through the New Covenant Passover

Christ Ahnsahnghong restored the New Covenant Passover. Without His coming, I would not know anything about how to receive salvation or eternal life. I am so thankful to be a part of the Heavenly Family. Through the Passover we become one body:

1 Corinthians 10:16-17
"Is not the cup of thanksgiving for which we give thanks a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ? Because there is one loaf, we, who are many, are one body, for we all partake of the one loaf."

Luke 22:14-20
"When the hour came, Jesus and his apostles reclined at the table. And he said to them, 'I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer...And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, 'This is my body given for you: do this in remembrance of me. 'In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, 'This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you."

John 6:56
"Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in him."

We become one body through the power of the Passover. Nowadays, many churches do not keep the Passover, then how can they say they are the body of Christ? Christ Ahnsahnghong has reestablished the Church of God where we keep the New Covenant Passover.

I eagerly desire to eat this Passover!

Christ Ahnsahnghong reestablished the New Covenant Passover

Passover is approaching, and I am elated. I am so thankful to Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother that they are allowing me to keep the Passover. Before coming to the Church of God, I never knew that there was a new covenant Passover. When people spoke about the Passover, I understood it to be the Passover that the Israelites kept when they were in Egypt, but God said:

"The time is coming," declares the Lord,

"when I will make a new covenant

with the house of Israel

and with the house of Judah.

It will not be like the covenant

I made with their forefathers

when I took them by the hand

to lead them out of Egypt. (Jeremiah 31:31-32)

Jehovah God brought them out of Egypt through the old Covenant Passover.

Jesus Christ came with the NEW COVENANT Passover.

And he said to them, "I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer...And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body given for you: do this in remembrance of me." In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the NEW COVENANT in my blood, which is poured out for you. (Luke 22:15,19-20)

I can't wait to keep the New Covenant Passover this year and receive eternal life that Christ Ahnsahnghong has promised. (John 6:53-54)

We rejoice in the Name of Christ Ahnsahnghong.

Nowadays, do any Christians persecute other Christians for the name of Jesus? No way.

Jesus said:

"...and I will also write on him my new name. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches." (Revelation 3:11-13)

But for the NEW NAME, Christ Ahnsahnghong, we receive persecution from "Christians". I can rejoice because the Bible already testified this would happen. Christ Ahnshanghong reminded us to rejoice. (John 14:25-27)

"Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you." (Matthew 5:10-12)

Christ Ahnsahnghong reminded us, "it is the same now"

It is the same now.

Just as Jesus Christ was persecuted, so where his followers.

"If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world...If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also. They will treat you thiw way because of MY NAME, for they do not know the One who sent me.

Jesus said he would come with a new name:

"I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown. Him who overcomes I will make a pillar in the temple of my God. Never again will he leave it. I will write on him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God; and I will also write on him MY NEW NAME." (Revelation 3:12)

Will people believe the new name, or will they be like the people that persecuted Jesus and his apostles?

The Holy Spirit told us:

"In fact everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted." (2 Timothy 3:12)

The Holy Spirit also told us:

"At that time the son born in the ordinary way persecuted the son born by the power of the Spirit. It is the same now..." (Galatians 4:29)

We know we are a true believer if we are persecuted.
