COG Ahnsahnghong ] Heavenly Father and Mother came to call the sinners.

"...you will be like God, knowing good and evil." (Genesis 3:5)

In the Garden of Eden, Eve was tempted by satan's proposition and disobeyed God by eating from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Eve wanted to be like God and followed satan instead of God. This grievious sin lead to death, for God said, "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." (Genesis 2:17)

As God explained to us in the book of James:

"but each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is fully grown, gives birth to death." (James 1:14-15)

In another place God wrote:

Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned--for before the law was given, sin was in the world. But sin is not taken into account when there is no law. (Romans 5:12-13)

According to the word of God, all of us sinned in the same way that Adam and Eve sinned. Because of the law of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, the sin that was dormant inside of us was revealed.

But, Christ took upon himself our sins: facing jeers, brutal flogging, and persecution to the point of death. He did all of this to call the sinners (Matthew 9:13). He took upon himself our punishment. How amazing is the love of God!



Now, in this age, who has come to call the sinners?
"The spirit and the bride say, "Come!..."
(Revelation 22:17)
