Seven tribes of Canaan

  Seven tribes of Canaan   In Deuteronomy 7:12, God commanded to completely destroy the seven tribes in Canaan, the Hittites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites. 』 Through the Bible, God gives spiritual lessons to believers in connection with certain historical facts. Canaan symbolizes the kingdom of God, which means the kingdom of God in the hearts of believers. Man has been a sinner since birth. This is because the spirit of an angel who sinned in the kingdom of God was trapped in the dust and became a human being. The first man, Adam, became flesh and gave humans a sinful body to die for, and Jesus Christ, the last man, died on the cross and solved all human sins. This is baptism. Water baptism is dying to old man (sin). However, the human soul is polluted and cannot be improved through human efforts. Therefore, the soul (clothes) must be burned by fire (the Holy Spirit) and wear clothes fr...

Parable of the sower

  Parable of the sower   (Mark 4:3-8) 『 Hearken; Behold, there went out a sower to sow:And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up. And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth: But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.And some fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit. And the other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred. 』 In the parable of the sower, sowing is sowing the word of God. The Word is about the kingdom of God. When these seeds fall into the world, there are various reactions. The kingdom of God has already come, but the response has been different. In Jesus ’ parable, the meaning of the parable is explained again. Some people co...

Water baptism (first death) and Holy Spirit baptism (second death)

  The first death was for sin at the water judgment. The problem of sin has been solved. The second death is the baptism of the Holy Spirit and fire. Therefore, saints are also people whose souls born from the body are burned to death. So, through the power of the Holy Spirit, one becomes born from heaven. Water baptism is a ritual that expresses death to sin. However, this must be accepted by faith. Many people misunderstand that water baptism washes away sins, but it is not a washing of sins, but death to sins. In 1 Peter 3:21, “ Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; That your faith and hope might be in God. 』 Water is the promise (sign) of resurrection through death for sin. Sin has been resolved. Noah's ark symbolizes water baptism. So, secondly, we must take off the soul born from the body and change into clothes that come from heaven. In order to change your soul, you must be baptized with the Holy Spirit and fire. Baptism wit...

Parable of the Ten Virgins

(Matthew 25:1-13)  "  Then shall the  kingdom  of  heaven  be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.  And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.  They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:  But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.  While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.  And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.  Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.  And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.  But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.  And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the  marriage : and the door was shut.  Afterward came...

History of the Temple

   History of the Temple (The contents of Genesis chapters 1-3 are stories from the kingdom of God) The temple is the place where God is present. So that place becomes the kingdom of God. But because of the sinning angels who did not keep their position, God created the material world and imprisoned the sinning angels there. God created the shape of a person out of dust and breathed spirit into it, making it a living soul. This is man. This story is from Genesis chapters 1-3. In Genesis 2:8, “The Lord God planted a garden in Eden, in the east, and placed the man he had formed there.” In the Hebrew Bible, it says, “The Lord God planted a garden in Eden, away from the east.” The Garden of Eden is not in the east but in the west (Holy of Holies). The east signifies a state outside of God. However, because Adam and Eve sinned, they were kicked out of the Garden of Eden. The Garden of Eden is like a temple. It depicts the temple of God's kingdom. Adam looks like a priest. The first...

law and gospel

The law was a command given by God to the Israelites. There are two purposes for which God gave them commandments. First, God tells them that you are all sinners. The second is that God informs them that they are making the mistake of condemning others through the law. This is the act of eating the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. This is the same as sitting in God's seat. Eve (symbolizing all mankind) was deceived by the serpent (Satan) and wanted to become like God, so she ate the fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. The fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil corresponds to the law. And Eve gave the fruit to her first man, Adam. The first man, Adam, as Christ, plays the role of giving the body of sin. He is born in the world in the flesh and gives his body of sin to the people of the world. God told the Israelites to keep the commandments, and when they broke the commandments, they received forgiveness for their sins through sacrific...

Two beings and phenomena that appear in the heart of a saint

  Two beings and phenomena that appear in the heart of a saint   A saint is someone who died on the cross with Jesus Christ and was resurrected with him, and a temple is built in his heart. So ultimately, salvation is the establishment of the kingdom of God in the heart. To express this, the Bible is expressed graphically, poetically, and in fantastical stories from Genesis to Revelation.   When a believer is saved in Jesus Christ, the new temple and the old temple, the kingdom of God, coexist in the believer's heart. This continues until the body dies. This is a spiritual battle.   The creation of the world begins with the first man, Adam, and the end of the world begins with the last man, Adam. In this, the people of God continue to fight spiritually.   The two beings in the saints' hearts can be expressed as follows. Old and New Testament, the first man Adam and the last man Adam, the old man and the new man, the law of Moses and the law of ...
