Christ Ahnsahnghong & Heavenly Mother — Enlightenment

Posted

Before I accepted the truth, I was a lush and heavy smoker and was trapped in pleasure-seeking. When it comes to going on the racket, I was second to none for sure. Whenever something happened to get me angry, I always tried to drown my angers in drink. Whenever I felt happy, I used to go on a binge like I own the world.

I don’t remember when exactly, but it was sometime in the evening when it rained dizzyingly. After parting from my friends, while I was wandering around the train station from place to place, I could secure my place in the corner of the waiting room and stare at lots of people coming and going.

Seeing some families hand in hand with shopping bags, suddenly I felt something was missing in my heart. “Why am I wandering so much in my life?” At that moment, with bitter tears of remorse, I became desperate to visit my hometown where I was born and grown up.

Looking back on it now, just like we miss our earthly hometown when in pain or sorrow, I must have had a great longing for a heavenly home where my soul should return. Later, I could realize this was truly enabled by the earnest prayer of my wife and the grace of God who guided this sinful child into the truth.

On the day I got baptized, I could regret many things in the past, watching my wife crying over next to me. While I went to church from a sense of obligation with my wife just like going to school in the beginning, I could finally realize that I have an eternal hometown I could go back as I started the Bible studying and my eyes and ears gradually opened.

In the past, I was one who could not stand others win the game. However, by grace of God, I was given the virtue of yielding and the mind of giving thanks and being patience. Comparing to my former self in the past, now I am living with the feeling of being born again into a totally different self.

I sincerely give thanks to Elohim God for letting me realize our physical life on this earth as a stranger and a visitor is meaningless and for giving me a hope to go back to our eternal hometown. Now, the most favorite time for me is when our whole families (including my parents who were recently baptized) come to Zion and worship God all together.

I truly give eternal thanks to Elohim God for taking care of my every move today too, without hating me of many shortcomings and faults. Now, I pledge my word to play a part in saving dying souls to return the favor of Elohim God.

Making sure of carrying out my mission to glorify our Elohim God as a messenger, I got on a bus after finishing work safely. On my way home, I have been thinking about the great sacrifice and love of Elohim God, listening to a new song playing from earphones.

I would like to give thanks to Elohim God who brought this prodigal sinner into the truth and gave the salvation.

Father and Mother, I love you.

Christ Ahnsahnghong & Heavenly Mother — A Child created with Mother’s Marrow

My mother was sick and she had to go to the hospital.

Since it was not possible for me to manage to take a day off from my work, my brother-in-law took her.

The doctor said it was a miracle that she was walking with her legs in pain.

Tears ran down my eyes.

I decided to quit my job and nurse her while she was having an operation.

One day, I happen to hear the doctor saying something in the patient’s room.

Mothers’ bone cannot be maintained well since mothers tend to leave all the nutritious food for their children and not for themselves.

That is why many mothers have operations for arthritis.

Subtly, my mom was lending out everything for me.

To not make her child to have hard times, she has hidden all her pains and lived a life for me.

I forgot it all. That Heavenly Mother has been secreting all the marrow from her bones, giving it all for this lacking child.

I forgot that I was Her child, a child who has been created with Heavenly Mother’s marrow.

I love You Mother. Forever…

Christ Ahnsahnghong & Heavenly Mother — Anytime, anywhere

When I arrived at Zion after work, a sister welcomed me and said she had seen me going to work that day. I didn’t see her, but she did see me.

At that moment, I got to look back how I felt on the way to work.

Some time ago, when I was on my way to Zion with full of anger and grumble due to work, two schoolboys were staring at me in front of the elevator.

While I didn’t even see them carefully, having a side-glance of displeasure, they saw me and greeted, saying “God bless you.” Being embarrassed that moment, I also greeted them immediately.

It made me feel so shame to know they are our brothers in Zion.

A few days ago, I preached to a missionary after Third-Day worship. The following day when I was preaching on Elohim Academy, one elder came to me and told me some examples saying, ‘I saw you preaching about the Tithe and there are some good words related to that topic.’ I was very thankful but then again, I was very surprised.

I didn’t expect he had his eyes on my preaching, since he was cleaning up the sanctuary at that time.

It suddenly occurred to me that I should always be careful of my behavior anytime, anywhere. Even though we behave as we please thinking no one is around, it is possible someone could see us. Thinking the glory of Heavenly Mother could be dishonored; I could not help but reform myself.

If we always behave properly with a smile despite there is no one who appreciates us, I am pretty sure this could become a custom, which could glorify our God at all times.

Christ Ahnsahnghong & Heavenly Mother — Who is qualified to enter the kingdom of heaven?

When we join the company, we make it a rule to be engaged in salary negotiation with an employer. After receiving the letter of acceptance, I also negotiated salary with the company. At first, I said I was not satisfied with the salary condition the company proposed.

At that moment, a director who proposed the condition asked me one question. “Could you please give me some possible justification why our company should offer you a higher salary?” At this, I could not answer to the question for a while.

Although it has passed several months since then, the question was so impressive that this comes to my mind from time to time. Then, I could get some spiritual realization.

To join the company on this earth, we need to meet various conditions and experiences as well as reasonable terms for better treatment. Then, do I satisfy to meet the condition to enter the kingdom of heaven right now?

Being in thought, I became to look back the path I walked through so far. I was the one who easily catches on the gospel and cools down immediately just like a pot. At the thought of having nothing to boast of,I felt so sorry to God.

From now on, I would like to be changed into a proper one who could enter the kingdom of heaven so I could leave beautiful traces in gospel.

I would like to give thanks to Elohim God, who allowed us the salvation.

Making a Sponge Cake

Posted

Heavenly Mother allowed me to attend an education meeting for the university students of morning dew.

I give thanks to Elohim God for allowing me to realize Father’s mind through the meeting.

There’s one sister in my parish, who finished her class late on the days we had education meetings.

So for her to barely make it to the meeting, she couldn’t get herself anything to eat but only appease her hunger with drinks during breaks.

Seeing her, I got worried and decided to make some homemade sponge cake.

Actually, living apart from my family, the only things that I knew how to make were instant soups or sandwiches.

I was lucky if I didn’t have eggshells in my fried eggs.

However, seeing the sister normally skipping dinners for 2 to 3 weeks, I started to think to myself that I should somehow make a sponge cake.

First, safely separating the egg whites and yolks, made me to give an automatic thanks to God.

In the recipe it said to beat the egg whites until it was fluffy. Though I wondered if it would really turn out that way, I just gave it a try.

While praying I whisked, and it really became fluffy.

Next, after I sifted the flour, I mixed everything into a mixture, and I baked it in the oven.

Finally, a fluffy sponge cake was made.

After the education meeting, I shared the sponge cake with my spiritual brothers and sisters.

I was happier seeing my spiritual family eating with relish.

After that, while reading the book of truths, I realized Father’s heart.

I had a stiff left shoulder because of all the whisking I did for 20 to 30 minutes.

There was even a pattering sound on my shoulder.

People who cook say that they feel the satisfaction when others enjoy the food that they have made.

I heard Heavenly Father also suffered many hardships writing the book of truths.

I heard He wrote the book of truths during hard times. While saving the living expenses, He bought paper and ink, He would stint himself in sleep and would write while brightening his light with oil.

I assume that Heavenly Father could elaborately write each word of the book of truths because he looked ahead of many souls being happy after realizing God through spiritual food.

The book of truths was to be given for the heavenly children who would realize the good news of the Second Coming Jesus, the spiritual David, the Melchizedek, coming down to this earth for our salvation.

Not letting God’s sacrifice to be in vain, I would gracefully read the books until the morning star rises in my heart.

I give thanks to God for allowing me to realize God’s heart creating the spiritual food from the process of myself making physical food.

Be awake and see

Posted

I would like to share the fragrance of Zion through the latest sermon tape series 12-1 titled, “Be awake and see.”

At first, I was actually going to listen to the sermon, ‘only God, only Mother’ instead of this one, since I heard there comes a fable of fat Peter Pan and I thought it sounds interesting.

Through God’s grace, however, I was told by my group leader the sermon series 12 was recently released and God let me hear what is really needed for me.

These days, I felt like my soul got slightly wilted without knowing why. In general, I behaved brightly but soon, I used to become weak and my strength was gone. Keeping in mind that I should not fall into obscurity, I tried to encourage myself but again, I felt heavy and exhausted.

However, as I listened to the sermon, I could finally find the reason.

Even though every time I pray to God, I ask Him to help me awake, I realized I was just repeating like a recorder without understanding what it really means by being awake.

“Be awake” represents we could see and be amazed by the history of God’s creation and enough to feel God is truly excellent, wonderful and the best but as for me, they were forgotten in my repeating daily life.

I have totally misunderstood I was awake just because I stay in Zion, keeping God’s commandment and preaching the gospel. In reality, however, I was just watching myself awake while sleeping in the dream. Now I know why my soul could not help withering like that.

I truly give eternal thanks to Elohim God for showing my faults through the words of God and giving me this opportunity to fix and correct it myself.

God responds to my prayer through the sermon, even consoling and encouraging me. Once again, I deeply feel you love me so much.

Our wonderful Father and Mother, I love you so much.

Starting a Family Means …

Posted

Starting a family means…
Not the chair, neither the desk, nor the sofa.
It is the smile of mother sitting on the sofa.

Starting a family means…
Not the green grass, neither the plants.
It is the burst of laughter of the children on that grass.

Starting a family means…
Not the car, neither the place where the family enters.
It is the father entering over the threshold to give love with a fluttering heart.

Starting a family means…
Not the kitchen, nor the flower on the table.
It is the mother with devotion and love that is so full that it might burst.

Starting a family means…
Not sleeping, neither being awake, nor going in and out.
It is the whispering of affection and the meeting of understanding.

A happy family is a place filled with love.
A place where father’s love is large like the sea,
A place where mother’s love is, that embraces like the earth.

In that place there is forgiveness rather than criticism,
Understanding and generosity is the priority rather than assertion.
A family is the garden with smiles a tall times.

A family is the place where a baby’s cry and mother’s song is heard,
a place with warm heart and happy eyes meet,
a family is the place where mutual sincerity,friendship and help meets.

A family is the place where children first get educated.
In that place children learn what is right,
and what is love.

Wounds and pains are wrapped in that place,
Sadness is shared and happiness doubles,
It is where one’s parents are admired.

A palace is not envied, nor the money can exert its authority
A family is the place that is all so good.

About the YouTube movie

The Spirit and the bride — In each era, only God gives us the water of life or eternal life. In the age of the Father, God the Father Jehovah gave the water of life to the Jews. And in the age of the Son, God the Son Jesus granted the water of life to God’s people. Now we are living in the age of the Holy Spirit. Then who can give us the water of life in this era? According to the Bible, the Spirit [God the Father] and the bride [God the Mother] give us the water of life in these last days. To receive the eternal life and enter the kingdom of heaven, we must believe in God the Father and God the Mother. The World Mission Society Church of God believes in God the Mother as well as God the Father based on the Bible.

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. [Revelation 22:17]
