The Beginning (the Scenes of the Seven Churches) and the End of Revelation

Immanuel (the father of the young servant), seven angels (including the young servant), seven evangelists, elders, and the appearance of Mr. Oh in Rv 2, the spiritual name of the “young servant,” Samson.

Mr. Oh first made Samson cut off his seven braids (Ref. Jgs 16:19), and second, he made everyone step down from their positions (resignation of the entire church staff, September 1980).

Let us examine the process of how this event took place. In 1980, at the beginning of the Fifth Republic of Korea, there was a governmental policy called “Purging of Pseudo-Churches (Cults)”, and at that time, Tabernacle Temple was labeled as a cult. At that time, Samson went to a seminary in the U.S. because of Mr. Oh, and Samson made Mr. Oh (possessed a certificate as a Presbyterian pastor) oversee the church. As a result of this, the dispute between the seven evangelists of Tabernacle Temple and Mr. Oh began, and Mr. Oh was ousted. Samson came back from the U.S. and mediated a reconciliation between the seven evangelists and Mr. Oh. (Amongst the angels who were cut off, there were some who each started their own churches.) At that time, Mr. Oh appointed ten elders, and he even made them give lectures at the migration housing complexes (Munwondong). At that time, Mr. Oh began to scheme with Protestant pastors at Mr. Tak’s office in order to fight against the seven evangelists who did not cooperate with him. After this, Mr. Oh called Samson, who was attending seminary, and put pressure on him.

It was around this time that I met the Lord who came from heaven in my hometown. I listened to his words and went to Gwacheon. And I sent letters to the seven messengers (angels). On the day of the event of Rv 13 (1981, September 20th, 14:00), I was at the actual site inside the church and saw the scene. Mr. Oh was presiding, and Samson read 2Tm 2:14-21 and gave a sermon titled, “The Qualifications of a Servant.” At the beginning, he started the sermon with a small voice, and then he held his hands up and suddenly shouted in a loud voice, “God, please give me strength one more time,” (Ref. Jgs 16:28). On this day, they (beast with seven heads and ten horns) placed the mark on the right hands and foreheads of the saints. That is, they laid hands on the seventeen evangelists and ordained them with the qualifications of a pastor, and they also made the saints raise their right hands and swear to acknowledge the Westminster Presbyterian ecclesiastical laws as correct.

Who would have known that these actions were the fulfillment of the events in Rv 13? Who would have known that they were the very beasts that made the saints of the tabernacle receive the mark of the beast on their hands and foreheads? Who would have known that the seven messengers of Rv 2-3 are the messengers of the lamps who prepare the way of the Lord’s second coming? Who would have known that Mr. Oh, who invaded this place, was the Nicolaitans (Satan)? And no one knew that the one who wrote letters asking them to repent at that time was the messenger who speaks on behalf sent by Jesus (Rv 22:16). Also, they themselves didn’t know that the events of the tabernacle were the fulfilled realities of the prophecies spoken of in Revelation.

These seven messengers (angels), at that time eight people (including elder Moses), were reared by the holy spirit for a hundred days inside a thatched hut at the foot of Mt. Cheonggye. Afterward, they cut their blood vessels in their wrists before God, made a pledge to God, and stored that blood in two intravenous bottles. With that blood, they drew crosses on the certificates of appointment of the saints. They, who were like this, were led by Mr. Oh, and they ate the food sacrificed to idols, received the teachings of idols, and committed sexual immorality with the gods of the idols, but there was no one who cared about these acts. Because they didn’t repent even after receiving the letters asking them to repent, in Rv 6, Jesus judges them using the four living creatures before the throne. However, who would have known that what took place in the Tabernacle Temple in Gwacheon were the events of Rv 2-3 and Rv 6?

These were the events that ended Jesus’ spiritual Israel in Rv 6, after approximately 2,000 years, in Gwacheon, Republic of Korea, and in Rv 7 began creating again a new kingdom and new people, the 12 tribes. No one except the one who saw chapter by chapter at the actual site as the events of each chapter took place can understand (know) the events of Revelation. Even if someone were to have seen it, without hearing an explanation from an angel each time (an event takes place), there would be no way of understanding (knowing) it. And in order to see these events, all the chapters of Revelation must be fulfilled and appear in order to be able to see it.

Even those who were at the tabernacle where these events took place didn’t know that their tabernacle and they themselves were the tabernacle and the people of the tabernacle in Revelation before this event was made known to them. The events of Mt 24 are the events of Rv 13 and Rv 6, and the events that took place in the tabernacle and the people there are the realities of these prophecies, but they didn’t know that it was referring to them. The reasons are because they didn’t have the knowledge about the prophecy and its fulfilled reality, there was no pastor to let them know about this, and they had become corrupt. Another reason was so that the Bible would be fulfilled.

At that time, the seven angels (seven messengers) of Tabernacle Temple introduced themselves as the seven messengers of Rv 2-3, and they drew seven stars and stuck them on the wall behind the pulpit to show they were the seven stars. And they boasted that their knowledge of the Bible was the best. However, they were not able to testify about the truth of Rv 2-3.

The chosen people who betrayed, the destroyers of the devil’s organization, and the saviors who belong to Jesus’ group are what’s recorded in this Revelation. And these three kinds of entities appear and they act in accordance to what has been recorded about them. Therefore, the one who knows the meaning of the prophecies recognizes these three entities.

In Revelation, there is the war between the betrayers and the destroyers (Rv 13), the war between God’s organization and the dragon’s group (Rv 12), and the war between the one who overcomes against the betrayers and destroyers (Rv 16). At that time, it is only by knowing who the opponent one must fight against is and their true identity that one is able to fight and overcome. In Rv 15, those who fought in Rv 12, overcame, and escaped the destroyers, who destroyed the betrayers in Rv 13, were used as God’s bowls of wrath. These bowls were poured out on the betrayers and the destroyers of Rv 16 to judge them.

In order to win the war, things must logically make sense and one must know the truth. The words state if one does not know God’s final work of Revelation or adds to or takes words away from Revelation, one cannot enter into the kingdom of heaven and receives curses (Rv 22:18-19). These words are correct a thousand times, ten thousand times over. Instead of being a superficial believer, if one is going to carry out a life of faith, one might as well have a clear understanding, verify it, touch it, believe it, and act on it. And God has an objective for fighting a war; He has a promised objective—the creation of a new kingdom and new people, the 12 tribes of a new generation. Only those born of God’s seed could become this new kingdom and new people (Ref. Mt 13:24-30, 37-43). Amen.
