Why I Left Shincheonji | Leaving The New Heaven New Earth Cult

Modupe talks about her experience as a former Shincheonji (New Heaven New Earth) member and why she left.
The Shincheonji Church of Jesus, often referred to as the Shincheonji cult group, originated in South Korea and is known for its unique and controversial religious practices and beliefs. Founded in 1984 by Lee Man-hee, Shincheonji presents itself as a Christian denomination but diverges significantly from mainstream Christian doctrine. Central to its teachings is the belief that Lee Man-hee is the second coming of Jesus Christ, sent to bring salvation by deciphering "the parables of the secret of the kingdom of heaven." This phrase encapsulates Shincheonji's focus on esoteric interpretations of biblical texts, suggesting that the true meaning of the scriptures has been veiled until now, only to be revealed to its followers. The group is also known for its secretive operations, aggressive recruitment strategies, and the controversy surrounding its role in the spread of COVID-19 in South Korea due to its members' reluctance to cooperate with health authorities.

[@twinamatsikojoab3436]

Yeah it's true just as The pharisees saw Jesus accidentally and never believed and dies spiritually 😂😂 So is to you all who have seen the promised pastor of today not by the scriptures but by lies and news . You had to be instead like Phillip and Nathaniel who saw Jesus through the scriptures and that is what we call true faith.

[@dudebro9420]

The last month b4 I left the scj Bible study group I was feeling so far from GOD. It was almost like everything I was taught b4 the bible study could be wrong or a lie and I started to doubt n question the GOD i knew my whole life JESUS CHRIST. I felt alone and just sad. I was like there's no way GOD would want me to feel that way. Tbh I think that was a warning sign from GOD. I'm glad I left b4 they put doubt of CHRIST in my heart because I felt that was coming next. I'm still dealing with some issues from it all but I still have faith I'll find my way back to a good place. Watching all these videos has really helped thank you guys.

Wow.. I just got out of it and only been in it six months.. This girl is spot on I just went through this, praise God for the blood of Jesus and I held on to Gods real teachings.. the moment I was called by the instructor he spoke to me about the one who overcomes is here and he’s from Korea.. after I hung up the zoom meeting. I blocked and deleted all of them.. and I praise God that I didn’t go through not even a year…

[@mana_de_gato]

Wow! I did the same... I was in the bible study for six months... When they mentioned SCJ as the promised church and Lee Man Hee as the promised pastor I left... Sorry for my English...

[@myriamferrer271]

Don’t worry about your English just be blessed you left.. I was in Bible college, I left it because it was free and on zoom. Incredible here I am over 60+ years knew my Bible so I thought. I left my Spanish college as what got me was parables. It seemed interesting, but once you are deeper red flags come up. I decided to continue till the first test. By that time I was uncomfortable but decided to see as after the test it was were I was told who the overcomer was. And the name New heaven and new earth church. Mind you I didn’t know where to church about this. That’s why I continue but when I was told and not to look at all the lies because I was being prepared to know this one man, I had a name to look and boy o boy. I blocked every one. I was also wondering every one is so young and here I am the oldest of the group.. send lots of questions and after almost loosing my family and friends because of the amount of studying, you know how it goes. I praise God my pastor and the congregation were always praying for me.. Be bless 🙏

[@skdaniela3374]

I went through the same thing just last month. I truly thank God for setting me free. Them telling me God was only in their church and no one else's didn't feel right. God's love isn't manipulative and full of lies. I pray those people in my study and many more get out

[@michaelamonic8961]

I stopped at “singing the new song” lesson. Did u guys also learn tht? I just couldn’t believe i fell for it. They r the ones that r rlly good at deception. They’re rlly mixing truth with lies. Praise to Lord God our Jesus for opening our eyes

[@user-dt8dq5li6o]

Even more so on the subject of John the Baptist, it scares people into feelings like if they even doubt Man Hee Lee they are considered a betrayer. So in that way they strip the student of the freedom of discernment and testing the spirits.

This was a great interview!

[@kittenbrown2484]

They never wanted to answer my questions....for example.... they kept stating that there were other people on earth before adam and eve. So, i kept asking.....well....who were they? Where did they come from??? No answer.....or that will be answered in later lessons. I still brought things right back to Jesus, and it seemed like that wasent what they wanted to hear. I also kept asking who they were affiliated with, and they only said....in time.. I finally found out and did my research in them. Also i personally asked three different Korean coworkers about them, and they told me to stay away from them. And that they are disrupting christian churches in korea. I brought all this info back to my friend who introduced me, and she still to this day dosent believe me. Its so sad.....and we no longer speak. Ive tried to warn her over and over again, but she cant hear me. Please pray for her. Thank you again for this interview and testimony!!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💕 God bless you both!!

[@twinamatsikojoab3436]

They never answered you right away to help you realize by your self throughout the lessons not to be told what you want to hear. Check Gen 4:14-17 where did they come from to be in the city of node when there was only Adam and eve and there two sons where by one had killed his brother Abel. So after being sent our of Eden to the east of Eden why did he say to God that the people who would meet him would kill him. Where did he get the wife in he married from the city of node in verse 17 of gen 4. We Shincheonji we have answers but we just make you read your own bible and get the answers by your self not to just tell you

[@mwweteisejonan9932]

At Jesus´ first coming, the main obstacle to believers were their religious leaders. They labelled Jesus a cult and stopped their members from following Jesus Matthew 23:13 [13]“Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You shut the door of the kingdom of heaven in people’s faces. You yourselves do not enter, nor will you let those enter who are trying to. No wonder most people who believed Jesus were never church people. They were fishermen, tax collectors regarded as the wretched of the earth. At Jesus´ second coming today, the same thing happens. Be careful! Learn by yourself and believe for yourself. Will their eyes be able to see? Isaiah 29:9-13

[@mwweteisejonan9932]

The dog can bark at a moving train but will the train stop? Hundreds of thousands of churches teaching wired stuff in the world but no one is bothered. The truth continues to be persecuted.

[@SolomonAkolo-et9pc]

Thank God for your videos I escape being manipulated into this. I saw this bible study course on Facebook and how it seeks to bring together talented footballers to learn God's word. I guess that was the bait,well, I applied for it. After a zoom meeting with one of the their representatives, I decided to do my own research. Since I heard New Heaven and New Earth and Zion Christian Mission centre from the video I quickly googled it. And finally I'm watching this video. Some of the course outlined that I can remember from the video is "The two Spirit" and " Unravelling the book of Revelation". I felt the study was so advanced and theological which made me lose interest immediately. But God I found this truth. Have to be so careful next time

Block them from contacting you and Pray self-deliverance prayer repent and ask for God to cleanse you from all demonic influence as a result of your time there. God be with you. Shalom

[@twinamatsikojoab3436]

If you never understood the word Just leave because we do not want masquerading people in us we want believers of the whole bible who are waiting for salvation from God and Jesus. He has sent his messenger Mr.Lee Man Hee and then We shall see Jesus through him Refer to Mathew 23:39

[@twinamatsikojoab3436]

You do not need boldness just leave and let us enjoy our cult alone but anyway the bible says you will have to come back in the last days and Do you think God can lie? Even when you die your spirit has to receive the same gospel of Revelation to enter the spiritual ream where God and Jesus are

@@twinamatsikojoab3436 Do you investigate the bible according to its literary and historical context to understand the intended meaning of the text? Do you even know what this means? I have found that people in SCJ are not interested in this but rather have fallen victim to the human tendency for over attributing patterns. The bible is a very complex book and I think Man Hee Lee oversimplifies it. Like for example, his connection between Jeremiah 31:27 and Matthew 13 is rubbish. He is adding additional stuff to the text to make it fit. The context of Jeremiah 31 is that God's chosen people were held captive by the gentiles. God promised that he will come to judge the enemies of God's people and then he will restore his nation. Jeremiah 31 used metaphorical language regarding architecture and agriculture to speak about this work of restoration that will be done by God. This is why it doesn't speak anything about the devil sowing seed in Jeremiah 31:27. The connection simply isn't there. SCJ adds to the text to make it seem to fit.

If you know what the mountain is then you will understand this verse Daniel 2 [NIV] [ 35] Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver and the gold were broken to pieces at the same time and became like chaff on a threshing floor in the summer. The wind swept them away without leaving a trace. But the rock that struck the statue became a huge mountain and filled the whole earth. [ 36] “This was the dream, and now we will interpret it to the king. [ 44] “In the time of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people. It will crush all those kingdoms and bring them to an end, but it will itself endure forever. [ 45] This is the meaning of the vision of the rock cut out of a mountain, but not by human hands-a rock that broke the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver and the gold to pieces. “The great God has shown the king what will take place in the future.
