Manmin N ews No. 681 November 1, 2020 “Until all souls in the world are saved in the Lord!” Manmin Central Church has ran with faith to spread the Gospel

Our church celebrated its 38th anniversary. On July 25, 1982, our church was planted with 13 members including 4 children in a temple of about 10 pyeong (39 yd2) and held a foundation service on October 10 of the same year. Since then, the words of life proclaimed by senior pastor Dr. and the works of explosive power have led countless souls around the world into the arms of the Lord, as well as the testimony of the members that their lives are full of change and life after meeting Manmin continues.

“You will be my witness to the ends of the earth” From the time of the planting of our church, countless works of wonders, signs, and power appeared, and has grown rapidly like the early church. In February 1991, the number of registered church members exceeded 10,000. And after the United Holiness Church of Korea was formed in July of the same year, senior pastor Jaerock Lee took the lead in national evangelization by taking part in various Christian events such as Chairman of the “92 World Holy Spiritualization Congregation”, working-level chairman of the “95 Liberation 50th Anniversary Peace Re-unification Jubilee Conference.” In the 2000s, overseas missions began vividly. We held overseas united crusades such as in Uganda, Pakistan, , the Philippines, Honduras, , Russia, , Peru, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the United States, Estonia, as well as in Jerusalem, the heart of Israel and spread the message of Creator God and Jesus Christ with the explosive power.

The Word of life and the power, to all over the world Through the powerful handkerchief that senior pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee prayed for (Acts 19:11-12) we are still experiencing the works of God’s power all over the world. In addition to this, Dr. Jaerock Lee’s sermons and the works of power, which were interpreted under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit with countless prayers and fasting, were spread throughout the world via GCN 2 Manmin N ews No. 681 November 1, 2020

So, members all over the world keep praying for the kingdom of God and their own sanctification in their personal places. In addition, literary missions have been actively carried out, such as Dr. Jaerock Lee’s representative sermon book “The Message of the Cross” has been published in 61 languages. Now, 112 titles of Christian books and 610 titles of translated books have been published. And Manmin News is being published in multiple languages. Even in the midst of Corona 19, Dr. Lee’s e-books have been steadily sold through Amazon Kindle, Apple iBooks, and Google Play Store so that supplies the water of life to the souls longing for for the Word.

As the protagonist of blessings that fulfill God’s providence The faithful God who has guided our church will complete the providence of the end times that guides countless souls to the way of salvation through the construction of a grand sanctuary where we can feel the dignity and glory. The construction of the grand sanctuary of the promise given when the church was planted will surely come true in due time, and in order to do so, the hearts of the members must be transformed into truth to form a clean, beautiful, and joyful heart of God. We hope that we will lead to spiritual warriors who will expand the kingdom of God and come out as jewels of Manmin’s history. We give all thanks and glory to the living Father God who will guide us with high and limitless wisdom until the day when it will fill the whole world to acknowledge the glory of the Lord as water covers the sea.

The Message of the Cross (23)

People without Salvation despite Their Confession of Faith in God (2)

“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter” (Matthew 7:21). “…There is a sin leading to death; I do not say Senior Pastor Rev. Jaerock Lee that he should make request for this” (1 John 5:16).

When people accepted the Lord, they set the serve to deny a man of God as well as the works of the ultimate goal to receive true salvation and enter Holy Spirit manifested through them. Heaven. If they say, “Lord! Lord!” but they cannot During the Exodus when the Israelites had nothing enter Heaven, how pitiful it would be! Let’s take a to eat, they placed all the blame on Moses and Aaron look at a few of the cases in which, despite their and grumbled against them. Moses said to them, “For confessions of faith, people will not be able to receive the LORD hears your grumblings which you grumble salvation and will not enter Heaven. against Him. And what are we? Your grumblings are not against us but against the LORD” (Exodus 16:8). Case 1: Blaspheming against, Interfering with, and In the first five Verses of Acts 5 is a story of Ananias Speaking against the Holy Spirit and his wife Sapphira. They had vowed to sell a piece “Blaspheming against,” “interfering with,” and of their property and give the profits to God. In their “speaking against” the Holy Spirit refer to words greed, however, they kept some of the profits for spoken and deeds performed in opposition to God’s themselves and brought only a portion of the profits works (Matthew 12:31-32; Mark 3:20-30; Luke 12:10). to Peter. They pretended they were giving all they had Unlike persecution of the church by unbelievers who made. Since the couple had deceived not Peter but the do not know God, these words and acts come from Holy Spirit and lied to God Himself, they faced death people who profess their faith in God and know the without even being given an opportunity to repent truth. There is no salvation for such individuals as (A c ts 5:1-11). they knowingly oppose God’s works following their evil. Case 2: Putting the Son of God to Open Shame by After witnessing the healings of diseases and Crucifying Him Again infirmities and demons being driven out by God’s We read in Hebrews 6:4-6, “For in the case of those power, if an individual still blasphemes against, who have once been enlightened and have tasted of interferes with, and speaks against the Holy Spirit by the heavenly gift and have been made partakers of labeling such manifestations “works of Satan,” how the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the good word of God could he possibly be deemed a child of God? Upon and the powers of the age to come, and then have witnessing a work of God that cannot be imitated fallen away, it is impossible to renew them again to by the ability of man, a goodhearted believer of God repentance, since they again crucif y to themselves could do nothing other than offer thanks and glorify the Son of God and put Him to open shame.” These God. verses refer to people who, despite having received Instead, evildoers are quick to deny works of the Holy Spirit, experienced God’s grace, learned the Holy Spirit and oppose God. Evil spirits do not of the existence of Heaven and Hell, and heard and possess the power to heal people of their diseases or come to believe in the Word of the truth, nevertheless infirmities. There is no way they would permit people become tempted, abandon God, return to the world, to glorify God by driving out evil spirits and healing and openly work to prevent God’s glory from being of the sick! The guidance given concerning blasphemy revealed. also applies to interfering with the ministry of God’s However, Satan will work even more fiercely against servants who manifest His power. Such interference is all those who go back to the world even after having the same as directly opposing God because they only experienced God’s grace in the midst of the work 5 Manmin N ews No. 681 November 1, 2020 of the Holy Spirit as the darkness in them will be heart and become perfect in God’s eyes. The story of even greater. They will perpetrate greater evil than King Saul, however, was a completely different one. nonbelievers, deny the grace they once received, and Even when Prophet Samuel came by and reminded even spearhead the persecution of the church and him of his wrongdoings, the king only produced an believers. People who put Our Lord to open shame excuse and did not repent. will not be able to receive the spirit of repentance, so This is also true today. If an individual who they will eventually arrive at death. professes his faith and knows the truth commits sin, Just think of Judas Iscariot, who at one point had he must rend his heart in repentance, walk in the been one of Jesus’ disciples. He had been a firsthand light, and bear good fruit as the Holy Spirit Himself witness to Jesus’ ministry but, seeking after his own intercedes for him with groanings too deep for words interests, ended up betraying Jesus for 30 pieces of and reminds him of his wrongdoings. When he sins silver. Apparently, unable to overcome his remorse willfully, however, God will turn His face away from and regret, Judas committed suicide without having Him and in such an event, the person will not be able an opportunity to repent of what he had done. to receive the spirit of repentance and will end up quenching the Holy Spirit (1 Thessalonians 5:19). Case 3: Sinning Willfully after Receiving the Knowledge of the Truth Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, although your Hebrews 10:26-27 tells us, “For if we go on sinning names were recorded in the Book of Life when you willfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth, accepted the Lord, unless you repent before God and there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a destroy the wall of sins, the names will be blotted out terrif ying expectation of judgment and the fury (Revelation 3:5). of a fire which will consume the adversaries.” This Furthermore, even if a wrongdoing we have passage points specifically to people who know and committed is not “a sin leading to death,” without believe in the truth but keep on committing the very casting it away and repenting of it we will never be sins against which God has warned us. filled with the Holy Spirit, even be tempted by Satan As 2 Peter 2:21-22 reminds us, “For it would be better and compelled to commit “a sin leading to death,” for them not to have known the way of righteousness, and the salvation will be a shameful one at best. than having known it, to turn away from the holy Therefore, I pray in the name of the Lord that you commandment handed on to them. It has happened will fight against sin to the point of shedding blood to them according to the true proverb, ‘A dog returns and get rid of from every form of evil (Hebrews 12:4; to its own vomit,’ and, ‘A sow, after washing, returns 1 Thessa lonians 5:22). to wallowing in the mire,’” people who sin willfully are aware that they have sinned.
