The Food That Gives Eternal Life
and Those Who Have Been Chosen
-The Food Given at the Proper Time and the Revealed Word That Cannot be Added to or Subtracted from-
Main References: Jn 1:1-4, Jn 7:37-38, Jn 4:7-14 (15-26), Rv 22:17, Jn 3:5, Rv 22:18-19, Am 8:11-12, Rv 22:1-2
When one era became corrupt, God prophesied a new era and fulfilled it. Because Physical Israel betrayed like Adam (Hos 6:7, 1Kgs 11), God prophesied about the future through the Old Testament prophets, and He fulfilled [what he prophesied] by coming to Jesus, the pastor He had promised. The work of Jesus passes through the first coming and is completed through the second coming. Those who know the New and the Old Testaments of the Bible will say the same thing.
Through this article I will testify about the food of eternal life that Jesus gives, those who have been chosen, and the food given at the proper time.
This testimony is a testimony that is based on the eight verses listed under the main references above. The first thing one must know is that in regard to people, all people have a spirit, soul, and flesh (Ref. Mt 10:28). And in regard to food, there is food for the spirit, food for the flesh, and food that is given at the proper time.
At the time when Revelation is fulfilled, the word that has been recorded in Revelation (promise) and the word that testifies about the fulfillment of that word (the revealed word) is the true food of this time (Ref. Mt 24:45). Therefore, one must not add to or subtract from Revelation’s word of promise (Rv 22:18-19). Because one cannot receive salvation at this time without eating this revealed word, this revealed word becomes the food of eternal life that is given at the proper time.
As seen in Jn 1:1-4, the word is life, and because the power of creation is in the word, the word of promise (prophecy) in Revelation [itself] fulfills Revelation and gives life. Jesus said in Jn 7:37-38, “Whoever believes in me, streams of living water will flow from within him.” Moreover, in Jn 4:7-14 (15-26), Jesus tells the Samaritan woman, “Whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life." What kind of water is this water? The answer is in Am 8:11-12. What is it? The water is the word of God. This word is not food for the flesh but food for the spirit and soul. That is why Jesus said that only by being born again of water and the (Holy) Spirit can one enter the kingdom of heaven (Jn 3:5), and he said that to anyone who wishes, he will give the free gift of the water of life (Rv 22:17).
At the time when Mt 24 is fulfilled, Mt 24 is the food of that (this) time, and at the time when Revelation is fulfilled, the word of all the chapters of Revelation is the food of that (this) time. At the time when these prophecies are fulfilled, Mt 24 and the contents of all the chapters of Revelation are the food of this (this) time that must be eaten to live, and this word is the true food of this time that leads to eternal life.
In Revelation, there are two paths: death and life. Thus, at the time of the fulfillment of Revelation, only by knowing this Revelation can [one] go from death to the place where there is life. If one is unable to differentiate between the two paths, death and life, then he cannot escape death. Therefore, at the time of the fulfillment of Revelation, the word of Revelation becomes the food of that (this) time. Therefore, if one adds to or subtracts from Revelation, then he cannot enter the kingdom of heaven.
Even if a saint received an invitation to the wedding banquet of the Lamb, it is difficult to be chosen because he must prepare the wedding clothes, lamp, and oil (Mt 22:1-14, 25:1-13). Now is the time of the Lord’s second coming. Have you prepared the wedding clothes, lamp, and oil?
When, where, and to what kind of people does the Lord Jesus come [when] he returns? He comes to the time, the place, and the people as promised in Mt 25. Shincheonji has made known the time of the harvest, has made known [the work of] sealing, has made known the promised kingdom and people, and has made known the creation of the 12 tribes. People who have been invited will be in the hundreds of millions. However, those who have been chosen are only those who have been harvested, sealed, and belong to the 12 tribes.
The water that Jesus spoke of as a parable is the food for the spirit and soul, the water of eternal life, and the word of life. This word is the revealed word. Those who have been chosen are those who have kept this word.
