Introduction

The Twelve Tribes

Promised Pastor

I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches.
I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star.[Rev 22:16]
신천지 이만희 인사말
“Greetings to all beloved Christians.”

The Lord of Shincheonji is Jesus Christ who was slain, and with his blood were purchased men for God from every tribe, language, and nation, who has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God.


God, the creator of heaven and earth, promised in advance to create Shincheonji (new heaven and new earth) the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony through Jesus (Rv 21, Rv 15:5). Since God created His kingdom on this earth as promised (Mt 6:33), we give thanks for His grace.


Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony, and the 12 Tribes that God created have never existed before, it is the only temple and kingdom of God that exists in the world.  The 12 Tribes created according to God’s will inform the whole world that the heaven promised today is near.


Beloved saints, Just as Jesus Christ loved us, let us love each other by keeping the commandments of love that he gave us. And let us work together to make this world God’s kingdom as soon as possible.


We, Shincheonji, promise to practice love and become the ones that light up the world like a candle in accordance with the will of the one who practiced love on the cross.


We sincerely welcome you,  and may our father God and Jesus' grace and peace forever be with everyone who has visited us.


Thank you.

Shincheonji, Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony

ChairmanLee Man-hee신천지 이만희 친필 사인

Who is "the messenger who speaks on behalf"?

I, the messenger of Shincheonji (the one who overcomes),
did not come out of my own will – I was sent to the churches in Jesus’ name (Rv 22:16).

Now is the time of churches’ end, and I testify to the fulfillment of Revelation (physical fulfillment).
Jesus said to believe in Revelation’s fulfillment in the New Testament (refer to Rv 1:1-3, 22:6-7).

Birth and Childhood

Chairman Lee is a descendant of the royal family that ruled over Korea for 500 years, and he was born on September 15th, 1931 to a poor family in the farmlands.

He was named before his birth by his grandfather after he had a conception dream where a light lit up his daughter-in-law after the sky darkened. His name “萬熙 (Man Hee)” means complete light in Chinese characters.

He began his life of faith by praying with his grandfather during early childhood, and he made a habit of praying every morning and night (on a mountain on Sundays), but never attended a church.

신천지 이만희 출생과 어린 시절

Swearing loyalty to God through a blood covenant

One day, while he was praying like any other day, a “big star” that he had often seen came close in the sky and was visible for three days.

Starting from then on, people around him began to persecute him for no reason, and soon after, he met a spirit (靈人) from heaven.

Then he made a blood covenant (血書) swearing his loyalty on top of a mountain (山上). He began to face countless trials after that day. While attending church, he saw the corruption of pastors, but he also saw the loyalty and heard the prayers of the congregation members.

He also faced many difficulties regarding his faith. He even became a penniless poor man. However, he persevered every time by thinking of the promise he made in blood.

To the Tabernacle Temple for the divine duty

While carrying out his faith at the faith village, he heard a voice from heaven telling him to “go to the Tabernacle Temple”. He went to the Tabernacle Temple in Gwacheon and volunteered for many years as a member of the church.

However, after he criticized the Tabernacle Temple, which was started by the holy spirit, but had become corrupt, he had to return to his hometown because there were people who wanted to harm him.

While home, he participated in the New Community Movement for seven years. Then the spirit came to him again and commanded him to return to the Tabernacle Temple and send letters of repentance. While sending letters of repentance to the Tabernacle Temple, he endured unimaginable persecution and even faced death.

The Messenger who received and ate the "opened book" in Revelation 10

신천지 이만희 말세의 기호 성경에 계시된 이상과 예언이 응하였다 다니엘서 9장 24절

However, Chairman Man Hee Lee experienced the fulfillment of Revelation during this process and also received a revelation (the opened book). These were all unimaginable things. Through heaven’s revelation, he learned that he was the messenger sent to the churches to testify to Revelation’s fulfillment (Rv 22:16).

It was an undeniable truth, no matter how many times he read the Bible. It was clear that if he did not testify to what he received, God’s work promised in the Bible would not be fulfilled. Testifying to what he had seen and heard was extremely difficult and burdensome at that time. In addition, not many were willing to believe even after they heard his testimony.

However, he testified to what he saw and heard regardless of “whether they listened or failed to listen (Ez 3)”. He also established the Twelve Tribes as commanded according to the Bible and created mission centers all around the nation where people could study for free. Since then, many saints have come to study the revealed word.

The Word Seminars that testified that the New Testament prophecies had been fulfilled were the trumpet sound of salvation that opened the eyes and ears of believers.

The Chairman and saints visiting the ruins of the first tabernacle that betrayed according to the New Testament prophecies.

Even if you don't believe me, believe in the revealed word of the New Testament

Chairman Lee confesses that his life was like the dirt that lacked knowledge, skills, and wisdom. However, he was determined that he would obey faithfully and do anything if it was for God. He says righteousness (義) is believing in God and doing His will.

Chairman Lee, who says that he was given the task of a messenger to testify to the truth that the heavens showed him although he is unworthy, requests that we believe in what he was commanded to testify to after seeing and hearing the fulfillment of the prophecies in the New Testament, even if we do not trust him.

“I testified to the word of God, and the testimony of Jesus Christ,
which is everything that I saw and heard (Rv 22:8) according to Revelation 1:2.I know what “work must soon take place” and what “these” mean in the Bible.This is because I have seen and heard from the place
where the prophecies of Revelation have been fulfilled.You will know this is the truth if you compare the promises of the Bible,
which are prophecies of Revelation, and the fulfillment of the prophecies (physical entities).”

Promised Temple

But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, the home of righteousness [2 Pet 3:13]

Shincheonji, Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony

Shincheonji is God’s kingdom that He established on this earth today as His will is fulfilled in heaven.
It is a creation made as a result of God’s 6,000 years of history and a holy temple where priests and people–who will be saved together in the Lord–belong.Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony testifies to the revelation and things that have been seen and heard according to God’s will and is working to heal all nations.
Shincheonji
신천지 이만희 신천 신지 한자

Shincheonji is an abbreviation for the Chinese word "Shincheon Shinji", the new heaven and new earth,

and it means new tabernacle and new people (2 Pet 3:13, Mt 13:31-32, Rev 14:1-5, Rev 15:2-5).

Just as Moses built a tabernacle on this earth based on the image of heaven shown by God, the promised pastor established Shincheonji on this earth today after seeing the kingdom of heaven in the spiritual realm.

This is God’s kingdom created on this earth as it is fulfilled in heaven.

Church of Jesus
As you can see it in its name, Church of Jesus means the Lord of the temple of Shincheonji is Jesus.
The Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony
“The Tabernacle of the Testimony” means that it is a tabernacle that testifies to the physical fulfillment of Revelation that one has seen and heard. “Temple” means it is a holy house where saints give worship service to God. The Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony is a promised temple where all nations which have been healed come to worship.

God’s kingdom that appeared in each era was the 12 Tribes.

In the Old Testament era, Jacob became the start of the 12 Tribes of Physical Israel as he was named Israel – which means he overcame.

Jesus who came to Judea also overcame the world (Jn 16:33, Mt 4, Lk 4) and created the 12 Tribes of Spiritual Israel through his 12 disciples (12 Tribes).

The 12 Tribes that appeared at the era of the Old Testament and the First Coming also appear at the Second Coming that is the era of Revelation.

In Revelation 7, there is the work of sealing with the word and harvesting the 144,000 at the time of harvest.

The place where the 144,000 are sealed is Mt. Zion in Revelation 14, and the 144,000 that are sealed with the word are the firstfruits (Jm 1:18).

This 144,000 are the 12 Tribes that are created by being sealed with God’s seal.

The 12 Tribes of New Spiritual Israel that God has created is a new creation, and it is God’s kingdom and temple – the one and only in the world.

These 12 Tribes are named after the 12 Tribes in the era of the Old Testament and Jesus’ disciples.

It is said that those who do not belong to the 12 Tribes are not found as the people of God’s kingdom at the end of age; thus, the 12 Tribes of Shincheonji are working to spread Shincheonji throughout the world and heal all nations at the same time.
