In the earthly family we have a father and a mother. This is how life is created.
But, do we have a heavenly family? Is there a heavenly family testified about in the Bible?
Ephesians 3:14-15 "For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom his whole family in heaven and on earth derives its name."
The Bible testifies that there is a heavenly family and an earthly family.
Matthew 6:9 "This, then, is how you should pray: 'Our Father in heaven,...."
Galatians 4:26 "But the Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our mother."
What I had been missing my whole life was the truth about our Heavenly Mother. The Bible clearly testifies that we have a heavenly family. If we were to deny this, we would be denying the Bible--the Word of God.
Without our Jerusalem Mother our family was unfulfilled and incomplete, but now that Mother has come, we no longer call God "Lord", we have the privilege to call God our Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother!
"Now you brothers, like Isaac, are children of promise..."
(Galatians 4:28-31)
Because of Heavenly Mother Jerusalem, we have become the children of God!
(Revelation 21:10)

COG Ahnsahnghong] The Solution to Spiritual Femine.
Christ Ahnsahnghong let us know where to find the water of life, the word of God.
"In the last days the mountain of the Lord's temple will be established as chief among the mountains; it will be raised above the hills, and peoples will stream to it." (Micah 4:1)
Many people will stream to Mount Zion, in the last days. Why?
"Many nations will come and say, 'Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob. He will teach us his ways, so that we may walk in his paths.' The law will go out from Zion, the word of the Lord from Jerusalem." (Micah 4:2)
In the last days, the word of God, the water of life, is coming from Jerusalem.
As Christ Ahnsahnghong taught us, the Holy City Jerusalem that will appear in the last days is the bride, the wife of the lamb.
"Come I will show you the bride, the wife of the lamb...and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God." (Revelation 21:9-10)
Living water, the word of God, will flow out from Jerusalem (the bride) in the last days (Zechariah 13:1, 14:8) that is why Jesus left us this testimony and Christ Ahnsahnghong reminded us:
"The Spirit and the bride say, 'Come!' And let him who hears say, 'Come!' Whoever is thirsty, let him come; and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of life." (Revelation 22:17)
"In the last days the mountain of the Lord's temple will be established as chief among the mountains; it will be raised above the hills, and peoples will stream to it." (Micah 4:1)
Many people will stream to Mount Zion, in the last days. Why?

COG Ahnsahnghong ] Christ Ahnsahnghong, He is my God.[Tree of Life]
There is a very important place in the Bible, which is closely related with our salvation. It is the Garden of Eden. The history of the Garden of Eden shows us the origin of unman beings and their death.
And in the Garden of Eden we can also find the secret of life. After sinning in the Garden of Eden human beings are destined to die. Then, how can we are saved from death?
The Second Coming Christ Ahnsahnghong taught us that only those who eat from the "tree of life" can be saved. For the human beings who sinned by eating from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, the only way to live is to eat from the tree of life. However, the way to the tree of life was blocked by Satan in A.D. 325.
The Bible prophesied that Jesus would come a second time with the fruit of the tree of life and give eternal life to human beings who were destined to die. It is Ahnsahnghong that brought us the tree of life, so the Church of God believes in Him as the Second Coming Jesus.
Then, what is the tree of life? Is it truly Christ Ahnsahnghong that brought us the tree of life?
The tree of life hidden since the creation
Matt. 13:34-35 『Jesus spoke all these things to the crowd in parables; he did not say anything to them without using a parable. So was fulfilled what was spoken through the prophet: "I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter things hidden since the creation of the world."』
Jesus revealed the things hidden since the creation through the parables. Among the 66 books, which book has the history of the creation of the world? It is the book of Genesis.
In the book of Genesis there are many parables showing God’s Providence. Among the parables, let’s study the tree of life.
Gen. 2:16-17 『And the LORD God commanded the man, "You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die."』
In the Garden of Eden, God the LORD put the tree of life and the tree of knowledge of good and evil. And He commanded Adam and Eve not to eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. However, they were tempted by Satan and violated the commandment of God. By this, human beings are destined to die and death entered this world through sin.
After Adam and Even sinned in the Garden of Eden, has God ever given us an opportunity to be saved from death? Is there no way to be freed from death?
Gen. 3:22 『And the LORD God said, "The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever."』
As stated in the above verse, there is only one way for us to live forever. It is to eat from the tree of life.
The reality of the tree of life is Jesus
Then, how can we eat from the tree of life?
If we look into the history of the Garden of Eden, we can find out that it is God that banned the sinners from eating of the tree of life. Then, we can reason that it is also only God that will allow us the tree of life. So Jesus who is God came to save us by restoring the tree of life to us.
John 10:10 『The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.』
The words, "I have come that they may have life," means, "I have come that they may eat from the tree of life." What is the reality of the tree of life?
John 6:53-54 『Jesus said to them, "I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.』
In the book of Genesis, what should we eat to live forever? It’s the fruit of the tree of life. However, what did Jesus say we should eat to live forever? He said we should eat His flesh and drink His blood. Then, what is Jesus’ flesh and blood? It’s the fruit of the tree of life. That’s right. The fruit of the tree of life in the Garden of Eden represents Jesus’ flesh and blood. By eating Jesus’ flesh and blood we can eat the fruit of the tree of life which was lost by Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. We should eat Jesus’ flesh and blood in order to have eternal life.
The fruit of the tree of life is the bread and wine of the Passover
Now, what is important is how to eat Jesus’ flesh and drink His blood, the reality of the tree of life in the Garden of Eden. It is impossible to eat Jesus Himself. Then, what does the words of John 6:53 mean? These words are referred to the words of Matthew 26:17. In this verse, we can find the way to eat the flesh and blood of Jesus.
Matt. 26:17-26 『On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the disciples came to Jesus and asked, "Where do you want us to make preparations for you to
eat the Passover?" He replied, "Go into the city to a certain man and tell him, 'The Teacher says: My appointed time is near. I am going to celebrate the Passover with my disciples at your house.'" So the disciples did as Jesus had directed them and prepared the Passover. … While they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, "Take and eat; this is my body." Then he took the cup, gave thanks and offered it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you. This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.』
Jesus said that the bread and wine of the Passover is His flesh and blood, that is Jesus Himself. Eating the bread of the Passover and drinking the Passover wine is eating of the tree of life in the Garden of Eden. So far, we have studied that the tree of life is a parable and its reality is Jesus, and the truth through which we can eat Jesus’ flesh and drink His blood is the Passover.
We can understand that the tree of life is allowed to us through the Passover, and that Jesus who allowed us to eat from the tree of life is God.
Christ Ahnsahnghong who restored us the tree of life
We, human beings, who lost the tree of life and were destined to die, could have eternal life by God who came in the flesh and allowed the fruit of the tree of life, that is, the bread and wine of the Passover. However, the devil abolished the truth of the Passover at the Council of Nicaea in 325 A.D. It means the tree of life was hidden and no one could have eternal life. We could not expect salvation without the Passover the truth about the tree of life. In this situation, the one who is able to restore the truth of the Passover, that is, the tree of life, is only God as it was 2,000 years ago.
Heb. 9:28 『so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.』
The purpose of Christ coming a second time is for our salvation. To bring us salvation the Passover is absolutely needed. The One who allowed us the Passover truth is Ahnsahnghong.
Therefore, Ahnsahnghong is Christ who came in this age according to all the prophecy of the Bible. He restored the truth of the Passover, the tree of life, and saved us from our sin and death. He is our God.
And in the Garden of Eden we can also find the secret of life. After sinning in the Garden of Eden human beings are destined to die. Then, how can we are saved from death?
The Second Coming Christ Ahnsahnghong taught us that only those who eat from the "tree of life" can be saved. For the human beings who sinned by eating from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, the only way to live is to eat from the tree of life. However, the way to the tree of life was blocked by Satan in A.D. 325.
The Bible prophesied that Jesus would come a second time with the fruit of the tree of life and give eternal life to human beings who were destined to die. It is Ahnsahnghong that brought us the tree of life, so the Church of God believes in Him as the Second Coming Jesus.
Then, what is the tree of life? Is it truly Christ Ahnsahnghong that brought us the tree of life?
The tree of life hidden since the creation
Matt. 13:34-35 『Jesus spoke all these things to the crowd in parables; he did not say anything to them without using a parable. So was fulfilled what was spoken through the prophet: "I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter things hidden since the creation of the world."』

The words, "I have come that they may have life," means, "I have come that they may eat from the tree of life." What is the reality of the tree of life?
John 6:53-54 『Jesus said to them, "I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.』
