Ever since human beings came to inhabit the earth, civilization has been continuously improving. However, there are still innumerable mysteries that humans have not been able to solve. Among them, it is the truth of the human soul that so many people throughout all ages and countries have been most curious to know: Where were we before we were born on this earth? Is death the end of everything or is there another world after death? Unable to find the answers to all these questions of life, they are vaguely afraid of death; since they do not know where they are going, they are not sure what the future holds for them. God took pity on those human beings who “all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death” (Heb 2:15), and He came to this earth in human likeness and taught them this fact: There is the kingdom of heaven where the saved people are going, and there is also the hell where the unsaved souls are going. Now, let us take some time to understand the spiritual world, based on the teachings of God. Through the Bible, let us first find the answers to these questions: Where and how did we exist before we were physically born in human form? And why is it that we were born on this earth? “The LORD brought me forth as the first of his works, before his deeds of old; I was appointed from eternity, from the beginning, before the world began. When there were no oceans, I was given birth, when there were no springs abounding with water; before the mountains were settled in place, before the hills, I was given birth, before he made the earth or its fields or any of the dust of the world . and when he marked out the foundations of the earth. Then I was the craftsman at his side. I was filled with delight day after day, rejoicing always in his presence . Solomon, who wrote the book of Proverbs, said that he had already been born—from eternity, before the world began. Then he added, “I was given birth, before he [God] made the earth or its fields or any of the dust of the world.” This means that he already existed before the creation of the world. Solomon also said that he was the craftsman at God’s side when God created the heavens and marked out the foundations of the earth. The King James Version refers to the craftsman as “one brought up with him [God].” Who do you think Solomon called “Father” when he was living with God in God’s kingdom? He must have called God “Father.” On this earth, however, he called David “father”; he was born as a son of David and became the third king of Israel. Thus, we have human fathers on this earth and the Father of our spirits in heaven. Without realizing our previous life, we cannot understand why we should call God “Father” and “Mother.” When we lived in heaven before we were born on this earth—before we were clothed in human flesh, we called God “Father” and “Mother.” Through Solomon, one of the Biblical characters, the Bible testifies that all human beings were God’s children like Solomon, and also shows that they will return to God’s arms when they die and leave this earth. Our origin is in heaven, not this earth, and we all have to go back to our true home. The book of Job also shows us this fact. Then the LORD answered Job out of the storm. He said: “Who is this that darkens my counsel with words without knowledge? Brace yourself like a man; I will question you, and you shall answer me. Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation? Tell me, if you understand . Surely you know, for you were already born! You have lived so many years!” In the book of Genesis we can see God’s work of creation; it records that in six days God created the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them and on the last day of creation God made man. In the book of Job, however, God told Job that he had already been born when He marked out the foundations of the earth—when He created the heavens and the earth. Since Solomon already existed before God created the earth, where did he live then? And where was Job at that time? They must have lived in another world, not this planet earth. It must be the kingdom of God, Heaven, because they lived with God. Do you think it is only the story of Solomon and Job? Through the case of Solomon and Job, God has taught us where we were and how we existed before we came to this earth. We were beautiful angels, God’s children, who lived in the kingdom of heaven. This fact is proven well in the book of Ecclesiastes, too. and the dust returns to the ground it came from, and the spirit returns to God who gave it. Here, the “dust” means human flesh (Ge 2:7). The above verse says that the dust [flesh] returns to the ground and that the spirit returns to God who gave it. Through this verse, we can clearly understand that our soul came from heaven. We existed in a spiritual body, an angelic body, even before we were born on this earth in the flesh. So, when people die, their bodies rot away in the ground and their spirits return to where they were before they put on flesh. Now we have a certain place to go. Since we came from heaven, isn’t it also the eternal kingdom of heaven where we will have to go? The kingdom of heaven is a place full of joy and happiness and it is glorious beyond our imagination (1 Co 2:9). That is our spiritual home we must go back to. As God’s children, we lived in the glorious kingdom of heaven. Then, why is it that we came down to this earth? The moment when we became flesh, we lost our memories of heaven. However, God has reminded us of all the facts through the Bible. Surely the arm of the LORD is not too short to save, nor his ear too dull to hear. But your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear. The Bible says that our iniquities have separated us from God. The reason why the angels who lived in the glorious kingdom of heaven were born in human likeness to live on this earth was because of the grave sins they had committed in heaven. For human beings who were living without knowing this fact, God came to the earth with the good news that they would be able to return to the heavenly kingdom. “For the Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost.” Jesus says that the reason why He came to this earth was to seek and to save the lost from heaven. He also tells us that the lost from heaven are sinners. “But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’ For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.” Putting the words of Jesus together, we can understand that all human beings were lost from heaven because of their sins. In regard to this fact, the book of Isaiah says, “Your iniquities have separated you from your God.” We were angels, but we sinned in heaven and have been ultimately cast down to the earth. This earth is a spiritual prison where the angels who sinned are confined. For this reason, our life here on earth cannot help but be painful and laborious. So God has taught us to repent first. Unless we repent and receive the forgiveness of our sins, we cannot return to heaven, our home, forever. Then, what should we do to receive the forgiveness of sins and return to our heavenly country? This is the task which not only Christians but all people, who have been cast down to the earth because of their sins, have to solve. To help them solve it, God Himself came to this earth. The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!” For about 1,500 years until Jesus Christ came, a large number of animals including lambs had been sacrificed as sin offerings. This sacrificial system of the Old Testament was a copy and shadow showing us how to receive the forgiveness of sins. God took pity on us and came to this earth to become a sin offering for us, and through His blood of sacrifice He gave the forgiveness of sins to those who repented of their sins committed in heaven. In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace that he lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding. And he made known to us the mystery of his will . Christ, who was the reality of the sin offering, gave Himself as a ransom for all people in the world to redeem them from their sins. Without the sacrifice of Christ, we can never receive the forgiveness of sins and the glorious way for us to go back to the heavenly kingdom cannot be opened. Then, what is the “blood of Christ” that brings us the forgiveness of sins? On the first day of the Feast 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 . While they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take and eat; this is my body.” Then he took the cup, gave thanks and offered it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you. This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.” When Jesus gave His disciples the Passover wine, He said, “This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.” Without the promise of the forgiveness of sins, we can never return to the kingdom of heaven. In other words, the New Covenant Passover is God’s promise that He will redeem human beings, who committed sins in heaven and have been thrown down to the earth, from their sins so that they will be able to go back to the eternal kingdom of heaven. The countless animals, which were sacrificed on the altar of burnt offering to make atonement for sinners over the long period of 1,500 years, show the sacrifice and suffering of God who paid the price for our sins in our stead. To lead us to the kingdom of heaven by letting us participate in the feast of the New Covenant Passover, God shed His blood and sacrificed Himself for us. Through this process, the law of the New Covenant Passover has been brought forth. So, if we keep the Passover without realizing the spiritual world, it is meaningless. The Passover of the new covenant is the law which God has established to redeem us by cleansing us from the sins we committed in the spiritual world. “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 . This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after that time,” declares the LORD. “I will put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people. No longer will a man teach his neighbor, or a man his brother, saying, ‘Know the LORD,’ because they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest,” declares the LORD. “For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more.” God promised that He would establish the new covenant, setting aside the old covenant under which He had been forgiving the sins of His people through the sacrifice of animals. And God granted them the complete forgiveness of sins through the new covenant, just as He said, “I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more.” Since the new covenant is so important, God proclaimed the words of prophecy about it in advance through the prophet Jeremiah hundreds of years before Jesus came to this earth to establish the new covenant. If we have now understood our origin correctly—where we came from, we should also prepare rightly for the place where we are going. In order to return to heaven, our home, we must receive the forgiveness of sins through the New Covenant Passover. God Himself came to this earth in human form 2,000 years ago to forgive the sins of His children and granted them salvation through the new covenant, seeing their life only full of pain and sorrow. In this age, too, God has come with the truth of the new covenant, as the Spirit and the Bride, to be the God of those who keep the new covenant according to the prophecy, “I will be their God.” As our Gods, the Spirit and the Bride have forgiven our sins and told us to share the blessing of salvation with all people around the world by preaching this good news to them. The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” Whoever is thirsty, let him come; and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of life. God our Father, who is the Spirit, and God our Mother, who is the Bride, say, “Come! Whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of life.” So, unless we go to Father and Mother, how can we receive the water of life? How can we know the new covenant that has the promise of the forgiveness of sins and recognize the Spirit and the Bride who are the Saviors in this age? The Bible prophesies that in the last days people will stagger from sea to sea, searching for the water of life (the word of God), but they will not find it (Am 8:11-13). Even prominent theologians, Biblical researchers, or any other person who has lots of wisdom and knowledge cannot find Father and Mother, who give the water of life, on their own. We must come to God, who calls us to come, and receive the water of life. Only then will God restore us to the kingdom of heaven which we once lost. If we fail to understand the truth about the soul, we will waste our one and only life with wrong thoughts and deeds and will eventually stand before God’s judgment seat. The reason God has allowed us to realize the spiritual world and has given us the forgiveness of sins is because He wants us to awaken so many people, who are running towards hell without knowing this precious truth yet, as those who have received it earlier than them. Let us look around at our families, neighbors and acquaintances and make efforts to preach to them so that they can also receive the forgiveness of sins and go back to heaven together. Let us preach our Father and Mother—the Spirit and the Bride, who have become our God through the new covenant, to all people around the world. Then our lost brothers and sisters from heaven will listen to the voice of Father and Mother and come to Zion to receive the forgiveness of sins, so that we will all be able to return to our heavenly country together, which we miss so much. The kingdom of heaven we are going back to is a place where there is no labor or suffering or pain or mourning but only eternal life and joy. Until we return there, we may have to go through some difficulty and suffering. However, just as the forefathers of faith in the Bible overcame every kind of persecution and suffering with the hope for the eternal kingdom of heaven, let us also overcome all hardships with the heavenly hope and go back to heaven together without fail.

परमेश्वरको मण्डलीको इतिहास परमेश्वरको मण्डलीचाहिँ परमेश्वरले यो पृथ्वीमा स्थापना गर्नुभएको एकमात्र मण्डली हो । परमेश्वरको मण्डलीको इतिहास परमेश्वरको मण्डलीचाहिँ परमेश्वरले यो पृथ्वीमा स्थापना गर्नुभएको एकमात्र मण्डली हो । बाइबलको अगमवाणीअनुसार दोस्रो आगमनका ख्रीष्ट आन साङ होङज्यूले स्थापना गरिदिनुभएको सत्य मण्डली परमेश्वरले यो संसारमा मानव-जातिको मुक्तिको निम्ति स्थापना गर्नुभएको मण्डली एउटै मात्र छ । परमेश्वरले स्थापना गर्नुभएको मण्डलीचाहिँ ‘परमेश्वरले आफ्नै रगतले किन्नुभएको मण्डली’ हो (प्रे २०:२८), अनि त्यो मण्डलीको नाउँ ‘परमेश्वरको मण्डली’ हो (१ कोर १:१-२; गला १:१३; १ कोर ११:२३) भनेर बाइबलमा लेखिएको छ । मुक्तिको कार्य र परमेश्वरको मण्डली आकाश र पृथ्वीको सृष्टिसँगै सुरु भएको बाइबलको शिक्षाले हामीलाई नयाँ आकाश र नयाँ पृथ्वीतर्फ डोऱ्याउँछ । यस प्रक्रियामा, परमेश्वरको मण्डलीले एलोहिम परमेश्वरको मार्गनिर्देशनलाई पछ्याउँदै मानव-जातिलाई मुक्तिमा डोऱ्याउने कार्य गरिरहेको छ । आकाश र पृथ्वीको सृष्टि एलोहिम परमेश्वरले संसार सृष्टि गर्नुभएको आदिमा परमेश्वरले आकाशमण्डल र पृथ्वी सृष्टि गर्नुभयो ।उत्पत्ति १:१ मूल हिब्रू ग्रन्थको पहिलो पददेखि ‘परमेश्वर’लाई करीब २,५०० पटक ‘एलोहिम’ भनेर बहुवचनमा अभिव्यक्त गरिएको छ । स्वर्ग र पृथ्वी सृष्टि गर्नुभएका परमेश्वरचाहिँ एक जना ‘परमेश्वर’ होइनकि ‘परमेश्वरहरू’ हुनुहुन्छ भन्ने अर्थ हो । परमेश्वरले मानिसलाई सृष्टि गर्नुहुँदा पनि “मानिसलाई आफ्नै स्वरूपमा हाम्रै प्रतिरूपमा बनाऔं” भन्नुभएर “परमेश्वरकै प्रतिरूपमा ... नर र नारी नै गरी उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई सृष्टि गर्नुभयो” भनिएको छ (उत १:२६-२७) । यसरी पिता परमेश्वर र माता परमेश्वरले सुरुदेखि एकसाथ यावत् थोकहरू सृष्टि गर्नुभएर मानव-जातिको मुक्तिको कार्यलाई डोऱ्याइरहनुभएको छ । अनि परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “मानिसलाई आफ्नै स्वरूपमा, हाम्रै प्रतिरूपमा बनाऔं। तिनीहरूले समुद्रका माछाहरू, आकाशका पक्षीहरू, पाल्तु पशुहरू र जमिनमा चलहल गर्ने सबै जन्तुहरूमाथि अधिकार गरून् ।” यसैकारण परमेश्वरले मानिसलाई आफ्नै स्वरूपमा सृष्टि गर्नुभयो । परमेश्वरकै प्रतिरूपमा उहाँले तिनलाई सृष्टि गर्नुभयो । नर र नारी नै गरी उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई सृष्टि गर्नुभयो ।उत्पत्ति १:२६-२७ “तर तिमीहरूचाहिँ यस किसिमले प्रार्थना गर: ‘हे हाम्रा पिता, जो स्वर्गमा हुनुहुन्छ, तपाईंको नाउँ पवित्र होस्’ ...”मत्ती ६:९ तर माथि को यरूशलेम स्वतन्त्र छ, जो हाम्री आमा हुन् ।गलाती ४:२६ निस्तार-चाडको स्थापना निस्तार-चाडद्वारा परमेश्वरले इस्राएलीहरूलाई मिश्रबाट छुटकारा गराउनुभएको पुरानो करारको समयमा करीब ४३० वर्षसम्म मिश्रको दासत्वमा रहेका इस्राएलीहरूलाई परमेश्वरले निस्तार-चाडद्वारा छुटकारा गराउनुभयो । निस्तार-चाडको अर्थ ‘विपत्ति पार’ हो, अनि यो चाड पवित्र पात्रोअनुसार पहिलो महिनाको चौधौँ दिनको साँझमा (सौर्य पात्रोअनुसार मार्च वा अप्रिल महिनातिर) पर्छ । परमेश्वरले मिश्रमा झार्नुभएको १० वटा विपत्तिहरूमध्ये अन्तिम विपत्ति, पहिले जन्मेकाहरूलाई नाश गर्ने १०औँ विपत्ति झार्नुअघि “जब म त्यो रगत देख्नेछु तब तिमीहरूलाई चाहिँ छोडिदिनेछु, र मैले मिश्रलाई प्रहार गर्दा नाश गर्ने कुनै विपत्तिले तिमीहरूलाई छुनेछैन” (प्रस १२:१३) भन्नुभएर “यो(निस्तार-चाड) पुस्तौँसम्म एउटा रहिरहने विधि स्वरूप मान्नू” (प्रस १२:१४) भनेर आज्ञा गर्नुभयो । पछि गएर इस्राएल देश दुई भागमा विभाजन भयो । उत्तर इस्राएलले निस्तार-चाड नमानेकोले त्यो अन्ततः नष्ट भयो (२ राज १८:१०-१२), तर दक्षिण यहूदाले निस्तार-चाड मानेकोले अश्शूरको आक्रमणमा पर्दा पनि परमेश्वरबाट सुरक्षा पाउन सक्यो (२ राज १९:३०-३५; २ इति ३०:१-१२) । जुनसुकै युगमा होस्, निस्तार-चाड मानेमा परमेश्वरको प्रतिज्ञा र शक्तिद्वारा विपत्तिबाट पार भएर जीवनको सुरक्षा पाउन सकिन्छ । “तिमीहरू बसेका घरहरूमा त्यो रगत तिमीहरूका निम्ति चिन्ह हुनेछ । जब म त्यो रगत देख्नेछु तब तिमीहरूलाई चाहिँ छोडिदिनेछु, र मैले मिश्रलाई प्रहार गर्दा नाश गर्ने कुनै विपत्तिले तिमीहरूलाई छुनेछैन ।”प्रस्थान १२:१३ “त्यो दिन(निस्तार-चाड) तिमीहरूका निम्ति एउटा स्मरणीय दिन हुनेछ, र तिमीहरूले त्यो दिन परमप्रभुको निम्ति चाड मनाउनेछौ । तिमीहरूले यो पुस्तौँसम्म एउटा रहिरहने विधि स्वरूप मान्नू ।”प्रस्थान १२:१४ नयाँ करार घोषणा येशू ख्रीष्टले नयाँ करार निस्तार-चाड स्थापना गर्नुभएको "परमेश्वरले उचित समय आएपछि नयाँ करार स्थापना गर्ने अगमवाणी गर्नुभयो ।" परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ, “ती दिन आउनेछन्, जब इस्राएलको घरानासँग र यहूदाको घरानासँग म एउटा नयाँ करार स्थापना गर्नेछु । ... म तिनीहरूका परमेश्वर हुनेछु, र तिनीहरू मेरा प्रजा हुनेछन् ।”यर्मिया ३१:३१-३३ यो प्रतिज्ञाअनुसार परमेश्वर शरीर धारण गरी येशू नाउँ लिएर यस पृथ्वीमा आउनुभयो, अनि निस्तार-चाडद्वारा नयाँ करार स्थापना गर्नुभयो । क्रूसमा बलिदान हुनुभन्दा अघिल्लो दिन उहाँले पत्रुस, यूहन्ना लगायतका १२ जना चेलाहरूसँगै निस्तार-चाड मान्नुभयो । येशूज्यू स्वयम्ले आफ्ना चेलाहरूको गोडा धोइदिनुभएको गोडा धुने धर्मविधिपछि (यूह १३:१-१५) परमेश्वरको देह र रगतलाई सङ्केत गर्ने निस्तार-चाडको रोटी र दाखमद्यद्वारा पाप-क्षमा र अनन्त जीवनको प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुहुँदै त्यसलाई “मेरो रगतमा स्थापित गरिने नयाँ करार हो” भनेर घोषणा गर्नुभयो (मत्ती २६:१७-२८; लूक २२:७-२०; यूह ६:५३-५४) । “ ‘... मेरो बेला नजिक आएको छ । म आफ्ना चेलाहरूसँग तिम्रो घरमा निस्तार-चाड मान्नेछु’ ।” तब येशूको आदेशअनुसार चेलाहरूले गरे र तिनीहरूले निस्तार-चाडको प्रबन्ध मिलाए । ... तिनीहरूले भोज खाइरहेको बेला येशूले रोटी लिनुभयो र आशीर्वाद दिनुभएपछि उहाँले त्यो भाँच्नुभयो र चेलाहरूलाई दिनुभयो र भन्नुभयो, “लेओ, खाओ, यो मेरो शरीर हो ।” तब कचौरा पनि लिएर धन्यवाद दिई उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई यसो भनेर दिनुभयो, “तिमीहरू सबैले यसबाट पिओ । किनभने यो नयाँ करारको मेरो रगत हो, जो धेरैका निम्ति पापको प्रायश्चितको लागि बगाइन्छ ।”मत्ती २६:१७-२८ अखमिरी रोटीको चाडको दिन आयो, जुन दिन निस्तार-चाडको थुमा बलि चढाउनुपर्थ्यो । उहाँले पत्रुस र यूहन्नालाई यसो भनेर पठाउनुभयो, “गएर हाम्रा निम्ति निस्तार-चाडको भोज तयार गर ।” ... उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “मैले दुःख भोग्न अघि नै यो निस्तार-चाडको भोजन तिमीहरूसँग खाने ठूलो इच्छा गरेको थिएँ । ...” अनि उहाँले रोटी लिनुभयो र धन्यवाद चढाउनुभएपछि त्यो भाँच्नुभयो र तिनीहरूलाई यसो भन्दै दिनुभयो, “तिमीहरूका निम्ति दिइएको यो मेरो शरीर हो । मेरो सम्झनामा यो गर्ने गर ।” यसै गरी खाइसक्नुभएपछि उहाँले कचौरा लिनुभयो र भन्नुभयो, “यो कचौरा तिमीहरूका निम्ति बगाइएको मेरो रगतमा स्थापित गरिने नयाँ करार हो ।”लूका २२:७-२० येशूले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “साँच्चै, म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, तिमीहरूले मानिसको पुत्रको देह खाएनौ, र उसको रगत पिएनौ भने, तिमीहरूमा जीवन हुँदैन । मेरो देह खाने र मेरो रगत पिउनेसित अनन्त जीवन छ, र अन्त्यको दिनमा म त्यसलाई जीवित पार्नेछु ।”यूहन्ना ६:५३-५४ पाप र मृत्युको साङ्लोमा बाँधिएका मानव-जातिको निम्ति पवित्र परमेश्वरले क्रूसमा बगाउनुभएको बलिदानको रगतद्वारा अनन्त जीवनको मार्ग खोलिदिनुभयो, अनि निस्तार-चाडको सत्यताद्वारा अनन्त जीवनको प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभयो । ख्रीष्टको क्रूसको बलिदानपछि पनि प्रेरित पावल लगायतका चेलाहरूले प्रेरितहरूको युगसम्मै निरन्तर नयाँ करार निस्तार-चाड माने (१ कोर ५:७) । नयाँ ढिका बन्नलाई पुरानो खमिरलाई निकाल, किनकि तिमीहरू वास्तवमा अखमिरी नै हौ । हाम्रो निस्तारको थुमा, ख्रीष्टको बलिदान भइसकेको छ । यसकारण हामी ... चाड मनाऔं ।१ कोरिन्थी ५:७-८ सुरुको मण्डलीले येशूज्यूको उदाहरणअनुसार निस्तार-चाड, अखमिरी रोटीको चाड, अगौटे फलको चाड, साताहरूको चाड, तुरहीको चाड, प्रायश्चितको दिन र छाप्रो-वासको चाड गरी ३ चरणका ७ वटा चाडहरू पवित्र रूपले माने । ती प्रत्येक चाडहरूमा परमेश्वरले अनन्त जीवन, पाप-क्षमा, पुनरुत्थान, पवित्र आत्मा लगायतका आशिष्हरूको प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएको छ । धार्मिक अन्धकारको युग परमेश्वरका चाड र आज्ञा परिवर्तन भएको तर प्रेरितहरू र सुरुको मण्डलीका सन्तहरूको मृत्युपछि मण्डली सांसारिक भएर नयाँ करार निस्तार-चाड लोप भयो । ई.सं. ३२५मा निकेयाको सम्मेलनद्वारा निस्तार-चाड रद्द भयो । मानिसहरूले बाइबलमा भएको ३ चरणका ७ वटा चाडहरू मानेनन् । उनीहरूले साप्ताहिक चाड शबाथ-दिनलाई पनि सातौँ दिन शनिबारबाट आइतबारमा परिवर्तन गरे । उनीहरूले “आफ्ना निम्ति खोपेर कुनै किसिमको मूर्ति नबनाउनू” (प्रस २०:४) भन्ने परमेश्वरको आज्ञालाई उल्लङ्घन गरे, अनि क्रूसजस्ता मूर्तिहरूको प्रचलन व्याप्त बन्यो । धार्मिक अन्धकारको युग र धर्म-सुधारको युग पार गर्दै १,६०० वर्षको लामो समयसम्म मानव-जातिको निम्ति मुक्तिको मार्ग बन्द अवस्थामा रह्यो, कसैले पनि त्यो मार्ग खोल्न सकेन । त्योचाहिँ परमेश्वरले मात्र हामीलाई अनन्त जीवन दिन सक्नुहुने (१ तिमो ६:१६) र परमेश्वरले मात्र नयाँ करार निस्तार-चाड पुनर्स्थापन गर्न सक्नुहुने भएकोले हो । ख्रीष्टको दोस्रो आगमन र नयाँ करार पुनर्स्थापन बाइबलको अगमवाणीअनुसार नयाँ करार पुनर्स्थापन परमेश्वरले मानव-जातिको मुक्तिको निम्ति यो पृथ्वीमा दोस्रो पल्ट आउनेछु भनेर अगमवाणी गर्नुभयो । त्यसरी ख्रीष्ट पनि धेरै जनाका पाप बोक्नलाई एकै पल्ट बलि हुनुभयो, र उहाँ दोस्रो पल्ट देखा पर्नुहुनेछ, पाप बोक्नका निम्ति होइन, तर उत्सुकतापूर्वक उहाँको प्रतीक्षा गर्नेहरूका उद्धारको निम्ति ।हिब्रू ९:२८ यो अगमवाणीअनुसार परमेश्वर मानिसको रूपमा दोस्रो पल्ट देखा पर्नुभयो । दोस्रो आगमनका ख्रीष्ट आन साङ होङज्यूले हाम्रो मुक्तिको निम्ति पहिलो आगमनमा जस्तै नम्रता र सेवाद्वारा बलिदानको बाटो हिँड्नुभयो, अनि कसैले पनि जान्न नसकेको नयाँ करार निस्तार-चाड पुनर्स्थापन गरिदिनुभई मानव-जातिले अति नै चाह गरेको अनन्त जीवनको मार्ग खोलिदिनुभयो । “... सर्वोच्च प्रभुले नै त्यसलाई स्थापित गर्नुहुनेछ” (भज ८७:५) भन्ने बाइबलको वचनअनुसार उहाँले परमेश्वरका चाडहरू पूर्ण रूपमा मानिने सियोन स्थापना गर्नुभयो (यशै ३३:२०-२४) । त्यो नै सुरुको मण्डलीले जस्तै नयाँ करार निस्तार-चाडको साथै बाइबलका शिक्षाहरू पालन गर्ने परमेश्वरको मण्डली हो । हरेक वर्ष कोरिया लगायत विश्वका १७५ वटा देशका परमेश्वरको मण्डलीहरूमा निस्तार-चाड मनाइन्छ । येशू ख्रीष्टको उदाहरणअनुसार गोडा धुने धर्मविधिपछि आशिष्को रोटी र दाखमद्य खाने र पिउने पवित्र भोज मनाइन्छ । परमेश्वरको मण्डलीले, ७ अरब मानिसहरू सबैले नयाँ करार निस्तार-चाड मानेर परमेश्वरको सन्तान भई विपत्ति पार र अनन्त जीवनको आशिष् पाऊन् भनी सारा संसारमा जीवनको सत्यता सुनाउँदछ । जीवनको पानीको मूल, माता परमेश्वर मुक्ति पाउनलाई माता परमेश्वरकहाँ जानैपर्छ बाइबलको अन्तिम अध्यायमा पवित्र आत्मा र दुलही अर्थात् पिता परमेश्वर र माता परमेश्वरले मानव-जातिलाई मुक्तिमा डोऱ्याउनुहुनेछ भनेर अगमवाणी गरिएको छ । पवित्र आत्मा र दुलही भन्नुहुन्छ, “आउनुहोस् ।” जसले सुन्छ त्यसले भनोस्, “आउनुहोस् ।” जो तिर्खाउँछ त्यो आओस्, जसले इच्छा गर्छ त्यसले जीवनको पानी सित्तैँमा लिओस् ।प्रकाश २२:१७ अर्थात् आदिमा आकाश र पृथ्वी सृष्टि गर्नुभएका पिता परमेश्वर र माता परमेश्वर अन्तिम समयमा मानिसको रूपमा आउनुहुन्छ, अनि मानव-जातिलाई जीवनको पानी दिनुभएर अनन्त जीवन र खुशी दिनुहुन्छ भन्ने वचन हो । “माथिको यरूशलेम स्वतन्त्र छ, जो हाम्री आमा हुन्” (गला ४:२६) भन्ने वचनजस्तै थुमाकी पत्नी (प्रका १९:७) अर्थात् स्वर्गीय यरूशलेम (प्रका २१:९) भनेर अभिव्यक्त गरिनुभएकी माता परमेश्वर (प्रका २१:९) हामीसँग वास गर्नुभएको छ, अनि उहाँले प्रेम र बलिदानको शिक्षाद्वारा हामीलाई मुक्तिमा डोऱ्याउने कार्य गर्दैहुनुहुन्छ । मानिस लगायत सबै जीवित प्राणीहरूले आमाद्वारा जीवन पाएजस्तै आत्माको अनन्त जीवन पनि आत्माकी आमाद्वारा पाउने गराउनु परमेश्वरको मुक्तिको योजना हो । बुबा, आमा र छोरा-छोरीहरूद्वारा बनिएको यस पृथ्वीको पारिवारिक प्रणालीचाहिँ स्वर्गमा पिता परमेश्वर, माता परमेश्वर साथै परमेश्वरका छोरा-छोरीहरू छन् भन्ने कुरालाई दर्शाउने नकल र छाया हो । पृथ्वीमा परिवार भन्ने प्रेमको समुदाय भएजस्तै स्वर्गमा पनि अनन्त प्रेमको समुदाय अर्थात् आत्मिक परिवार छ । सारा मानव-जाति पिता परमेश्वर र माता परमेश्वरकहाँ आएमा साँचो सान्त्वना, विश्राम र अनन्त जीवन प्राप्त गर्न सक्छन् । “आऊ, म तिमीलाई थुमाकी पत्नी, उहाँकी दुलही देखाउनेछु ।” तिनले ... परमेश्वरबाट स्वर्गदेखि तलतिर झरिरहेको पवित्र सहर यरूशलेम मलाई देखाए ।प्रकाश २१:९-१० तर माथिको यरूशलेम स्वतन्त्र छ, जो हाम्री आमा हुन् ।गलाती ४:२६ हाम्रो अनन्तको गृहनगर, स्वर्ग-राज्य पिता परमेश्वर, माता परमेश्वर र स्वर्गीय सन्तानहरू सँगै रहने हाम्रो आत्मिक घर बाइबलमा मानव-जाति यस पृथ्वीमा जन्मिनुअघि स्वर्गका स्वर्गदूतहरू थिए भनेर जानकारी दिइएको छ (अयू ३८:१-७; हितो ८:२२-३०) । स्वर्गचाहिँ पिता परमेश्वर, माता परमेश्वर र हाम्रा दाजुभाइ-दिदीबहिनीहरू सँगै रहने आत्मिक गृहनगर हो । त्यहाँ हामीले मृत्यु भोग्नुपर्ने पाप गरेकाले हामीहरू यस पृथ्वीमा धपाइएर दुःख, कष्ट र पीडा भोग्दै जिइरहेका छौं । जुन देशबाट तिनीहरू निस्केर गएका थिए, यदि तिनीहरूले त्यही देशको विषयमा सोचेका भए तिनीहरूलाई फर्किजाने मौका मिल्ने थियो । तर तिनीहरू अझ उत्तम देश, अर्थात् एक स्वर्गीय देशको इच्छा गर्छन् ।हिब्रू ११:१५ पिता परमेश्वर र माता परमेश्वरचाहिँ यस पृथ्वीका मानव-जातिले परमेश्वरको सत्यतालाई पूर्ण रूपमा महसुस गरून्, र पश्चात्ताप गर्दै नयाँ गरी जन्मिएर ईश्वरीय स्वरूपमा परिवर्तन भई सुन्दर स्वर्गमा फर्किआऊन् भन्ने चाहनुहुन्छ । पिता-माताले स्फटिकजस्तै चहकिलो जीवनका पानीको नदी बग्ने, जीवनको वृक्षले बाह्रै किसिमका फलहरू दिने, अनि हर्ष र आनन्दको अन्त्य नहुने अनन्तको स्वर्ग-राज्य तयार गरिरहनुभएको छ । आँखाले नदेखेका र कानले नसुनेका र मानिसले मनमा नसोचेका, यी नै कुरा परमेश्वरले उहाँलाई प्रेम गर्नेहरूका निम्ति तयार पार्नुभएको छ ।१ कोरिन्थी २:९ परमेश्वरको मण्डलीले विश्वव्यापी परिवारका सबै मानिसहरूले पिता परमेश्वर र माता परमेश्वरको प्रेम महसुस गरेर स्वर्गीय परिवारको सन्तान भई अनन्तको स्वर्गमा सदासर्वदा महिमा र आशिष् उपभोग गरून् भन्ने आशामा विश्वका ठाउँ-ठाउँमा जीवनको सत्यता सुनाउँदछ । मण्डलीको इतिहास सूर्य उदाउने सानो देशबाट सुरु भएको परमेश्वरको महिमाको ज्योति सारा संसारभरि चम्किरहेको छ । - सन् १९४८ - आन साङ होङज्यूको बप्तिस्मा (नाग्सम, इन्छन, कोरिया) - सन् १९६४ - परमेश्वरको मण्डली स्थापना - सन् १९८५ - आन साङ होङज्यूको स्वर्गारोहण
