2. Church members do not know how to distinguish between the Kingdom of God and Heaven.

  2. Church members do not know how to distinguish between the Kingdom of God and Heaven.   Church community pastors do not know how to distinguish between the Kingdom of God and Heaven. This is because they do not know Greek. The Gospel of Matthew was written primarily for the Jewish people, but the pastors of the church community thought it was blasphemous for the Jews to use the word God, so they replaced it with the word heaven. This is a truly worrisome expression. In addition to the Gospel of Matthew, in Mark 16:19 it says, "So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God." The Greek word translated heaven here is ton uranon. In Luke 24:51, "While he was blessing them, he was taken up [into heaven]." Heaven is ton uranon, the same as in Matthew. In John 1:51, "And he said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter you shall see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending an...

2-2. The Kingdom of God of the Trinity

  2-2. The Kingdom of God of the Trinity   In Genesis 1:1, "In the beginning God created the heavens ( הַשָּׁמַ֖יִם hashamayim) and the earth ( הָאָֽרֶץ ha'erets)" Shamayim means heaven, but the article ha is added in front to make hashamayim, which is that heaven. The specific heaven refers to the kingdom of God. The kingdom of God is not multiple, but one. Jehovah God is also one. However, the rest in the kingdom of God was broken because of the angels who sinned. So God predestined Christ, and as his first plan, he confined the sinners to the material world. And God himself became the first man, gave them a body of sin, and then died on the cross as the last Adam and gave them a spiritual body that gives life. In the existing doctrine of the Trinity, God is expressed as the Trinity of three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. However, the fundamental meaning of the Trinity is that Jesus in God the Father, Jesus the Son, and Jesus Ch...

3. Church people do not understand the concept of the temple.

  3. Church people do not understand the concept of the temple.   In Genesis 1:27, "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them." Most church community people say that the image of God is God's character. However, the image of God is a person with a body, and it is said that the temple was established in the person's soul. Jesus likened his body to a temple. In John 2:19, “ Jesus answered and said to them, ‘ Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. ’” This temple is the old temple that must die. In Colossians 1:15, “ He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. ” And in Matthew 24:1-2, “ As Jesus was leaving the temple, his disciples came to him to show him the buildings of the temple. And he answered and said to them, ‘ Do you not see all these things? Truly I tell you, by no means will a stone be left here upon a stone that will not be thrown down. ’” Why...

4. Not understanding the biblical meaning of humans and angels

  4. Not understanding the biblical meaning of humans and angels   The scene when God created man is described in Genesis 2:7: "And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being." In Hebrew, a living being is nephesh haya, which means a living being. A person is composed of a spirit and a body. However, when a person dies, Ecclesiastes 12:7 says, "The dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit returns to God who gave it." The spirit should be in God, but being in the dust of the world is not in its perfect form. The spirit in the dust is dead. John 6:63 says, "It is the spirit that gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life." After Jesus died on the cross, 1 Peter 3:18 says, "For Christ also suffered once for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death i...

4-2. Comparison of the bodies of humans and (criminal) angels

  4-2. Comparison of the bodies of humans and (criminal) angels   Humans are a combination of a spirit from God and a body made of earth. When the body dies, the spirit and the body are separated. So the body returns to the earth, and the spirit returns to God. The spirit that entered the human body is the spirit of an angel from heaven. The fallen angels in the kingdom of God originally wore a spiritual body. The spirit taking off its body is expressed as being naked. Genesis 3:6-7 "When the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit and did eat. She also gave some to her husband with her, and he did eat. Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked. So they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves aprons." The spirit must wear something to avoid being naked. The man and woman (spirits of the angels who sinned) who at...

5. Distort the origin and cause of sin

  5. Distort the origin and cause of sin   Romans 5:12 "Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men, because all sinned." The Greek word di means through. Therefore, it is said that through one man sin entered the world, and through sin death entered. The fact that sin entered the world means that sin already existed somewhere, not in the world. The first sin is mentioned in Jude 1:6: "And the angels who did not keep their own position but abandoned their proper dwelling, he has kept in everlasting chains under darkness for the judgment of the great day." This means that there was a sin of the angels who sinned in the kingdom of God. This sin is that the sinful angels wanted to become like God, so they opposed God and abandoned their position. So God confined them in darkness, and this darkness is the human body. The first man Adam is Christ who appeared in the world to give people a body ...

6. Church people fade the meaning of repentance

  6. Church people fade the meaning of repentance   Church people often understand the word repentance as a word to repent, confess, and ask for forgiveness for the wrongdoings they have committed while living in the world. When they have done something that is not right in the eyes of God, or have done something bad to others, or have done something that others would point fingers at as a child of God, they come to church, repent for their actions, and ask God to forgive them. If you understand the meaning of Jesus' words, "Repent" as "Repent for a mistake, confess, and ask for forgiveness," then you are misunderstanding the Bible. Repentance is when a sinner who has turned away from God turns back to God. There is a parable of the prodigal son in the Bible. In Luke 15:11-24, it says that a father had two sons, and the younger one asked his father for his share in advance. So the father gave him the inheritance, but he went to a foreign country and live...

7. The Gospel and the Law Cannot Be Mixed

  7. The Gospel and the Law Cannot Be Mixed   The law was a commandment given by God to the people of Israel. The purpose of this commandment was twofold. First, it tells you that you are all sinners. Second, it tells you that you are making the mistake of condemning others through the law. This is the act of eating the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. This is the same as sitting in God ’ s seat. God made us keep the commandments and, when we break them, receive forgiveness of sins through sacrifice. The reason for this is that through sacrifice, he made us realize that humans are beings who cannot escape from sin no matter how hard they try. Therefore, through sacrifice, he made us remember the promise to the offspring of the woman. The offspring of the woman is none other than the last man, Adam, who is Christ. The last man, Adam, redeemed the body of sin on the cross and gave the body of resurrection (the clothes of Christ) to those who are united ...
