Most Christians just call God "Father." Why do they think that God is male?
Life is always given by both sexes-male and female, and this shows the Providence of God. The Bible says that God's eternal power and divine nature are clearly seen and understood from what has been made and that all things were created by God's will.
The birds flying in the sky have their fathers and mothers.
The fishes in the waters have their fathers and mothers.
The animals on the earth have their fathers and mothers.
What about God's children? They have their heavenly Father and Mother, don't they?
"For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities-his eternal power and divine nature-have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made,so that men are without excuse" (Romans 1:20).
"You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they were created and have their being" (Revelaation 4:11).
Through the fathers and mothers of all living things, it is understood that there exist the spiritual Father and Mother. God's children have not only their Father but also their Mother. Earthly family system is a copy and shadow of the heavenly family's. As an earthly family is composed of physical parents (father and mother) and children (brothers and sisters), so the heavenly family consists of spiritual Parents (Father and Mother) and children (brothers and sisters).

COG Ahnsahnghong ] Mother is Life and Love ♥
When people hear the word "mother," they feel warmth and comfort. The word "mother" implies home, haven, yearning, sacrifice and love.
After going through nine months of pregnancy, a mother gives birth to a child in so much pain, shedding blood. And for the child, she sacrifices herself and loves him or her untiringly all her lifetime. A mother even becomes superhuman to save the life of her child.
Mother is life. Of course, father is also essential for life. However, it is not the father who ultimately gives birth to a child, but the mother.
As human mothers give their children life, so the spiritual Mother gives Her children eternal life. According to the Bible, the spiritual Father and Mother are to come in the flesh and lead the people of all nations into life in the last days.
This gives many people a shock and also arouses sympathy from them.
Some say that God has made mothers because He can't be everywhere. However, the Bible tells us that God, who is everywhere, has come to this earth as the heavenly Mother to save mankind.
Truly God is Love.

COG Ahnsahnghong ] Christ Ahnsahnghong and Mother Jerusalem came.
According to the scriptures, Adam was the pattern of the one who was to come...
Romans 5:14
"Nevertheless, death reigned from the time of Adam to the time of Moses, even over those who did not sin by breaking a command, as did Adam, who was a pattern of the one to come."
Who is coming? Christ. (Hebrews 9:27, Revelation 22:7,12)
But when 2nd Coming Christ appears, he will come in the pattern of Adam. What was Adam's pattern?
Genesis 2:21
So the LORD God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man's ribs and closed up the place with flesh. 22 Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man.
23 The man said,
"This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh;
she shall be called 'woman, for she was taken out of man."
24 For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh.
Adam was always with Eve because they were
"one flesh".
So, when Jesus appears a second time, in this pattern, should He be alone?
Revelation 22:17
"The Spirit AND the bride say, "Come!"...(Revelations 21:9-11, Galatians 4:26)
Indeed our Father Christ Ahnsahnghong has come in the pattern of Adam. He revealed us who is our Mother. The wedding banquet has started. (Revelations 19:7-9)
Romans 5:14
"Nevertheless, death reigned from the time of Adam to the time of Moses, even over those who did not sin by breaking a command, as did Adam, who was a pattern of the one to come."
Who is coming? Christ. (Hebrews 9:27, Revelation 22:7,12)

COG Ahnsahnghong ] Heavenly Mother has taught us in Zion.
When I think about the love of a mother, I think about an unconditional love that can conquer anything. Mothers have been known to move cars with their bare hands to save their children and will risk their lives for the sake of their children's lives.
The same is for our Heavenly Mother Jerusalem.
Revelation 21:9-10
9One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues came and said to me, "Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb." 10And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God.
The mountain is Zion (Hebrews 12:22-23) and the Holy City Jerusalem, she is our mother. (Galatians 4:26)
Heavenly Mother came down out of Heaven to save us--the sinners who rebelled against God--deserving death (Romans 6:23), and is teaching us how to love as She (Christ) has loved us. Now, in the Church of God, we follow the teachings of Mother.
1. It is more blessed to give love than to receive, as God always gives love.
2. When we give glory to God, the glory returns to us.
3. A beautiful mind has no hate and brings forth a perfect love.
4. As Abraham was blessed with the better when he conceded to his nephew Lot, so we are blessed even more when we concede to our brothers and sisters.
5. Being arrogant means wanting to be served.
6. Though others do not work, we should not complain but do our work faithfully. Having the mind of a master makes us work with pleasure and with ease.
7. Arrogance comes from the mind full of complaint. When we serve God always with thanksgiving, complaint and arrogance recede from us and humility dwells in our hearts.
8. When we praise our brothers and sisters, the praise returns to us.
9. As the sea receives all the dirt and purifies it, we should have a broad and beautiful mind enough to cover up even the faults of our brothers and sisters.
10. Whoever wants to be led by the Lamb, should become a lamb smaller than the Lamb.
11. Sacrifice is needed to become a greater vessel.
12. We should endure present sufferings, for the kingdom of heaven is ours.
13. Even God didn't come to be served but to serve. When we serve one another without wanting to be served, God will be pleased.
I truly want to follow the wisdom of our Heavenly Mother, and live!
The same is for our Heavenly Mother Jerusalem.
Revelation 21:9-10
9One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues came and said to me, "Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb." 10And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God.

COG Ahnsahnghong ] Christ Ahnsahnghong and Mother give the Water of Life.
In the Old Testament, when the Israelites did not have water, God made the water flow out from the Rock, but that Rock was Christ (Exodus 17:1-7, 1 Corinthians 10:2-4).
Jesus Christ gave the Water of Life 2000 years ago:
John 4: 10-14
"If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him and he would have given you LIVING WATER.....13 Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, 14 but 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."
He also offered the LIVING WATER during the Feast of Tabernacles.
John 7:37 (John 7:1-11)
On the last and greatest day of the Feast, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, "If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink. 38 Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of LIVING WATER will flow from within him."
BUT, WHO IS GIVING THE CHURCH OF GOD THE WATER OF LIFE IN THESE LAST DAYS?
Revelation 7:22
"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."
As a sinner who needs the WATER OF LIFE, we must meet, not only the Spirit, but also the Bride to receive the gift that God promised us. Jerusalem is the Bride and our Mother (Revelation 21:9-10, Galatians 4:26). We must meet her when she comes down from Heaven.
In another place it is written;
Zechariah 14:8
On that day living water will flow out from Jerusalem, half to the eastern sea and half to the western sea, in summer and in winter.
I am so thankful to Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother for coming out of Heaven to give us the water of life! The WATER OF LIFE is the free gift--eternal life is priceless.
Those who have not yet seen the glory of our Heavenly Mother, will be shocked and amazed, as Jerusalem WAS, IS, AND WILL BE the praise of the world! (Isaiah 62:6-7).
Jesus Christ gave the Water of Life 2000 years ago:
John 4: 10-14
"If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him and he would have given you LIVING WATER.....13 Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, 14 but 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."

COG Ahnsahnghong ] Elohim God .
There are many instances in the Bible where God speaks in plural.
Gen 1:26 Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness... So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him;
male and female he created them.
Actually, the original word for God in the Hebrew Bible is Elohim. All Biblicists agree that the suffix –im in Hebrew indicates the plural. For this reason the pronoun “us” accompanies Elohim.
Everything on the earth is a shadow, and the things in heaven are its realities.
On earth we have a family system composed of:
Father + Mother = Children.
What about in Heaven?
Heb 12:9 "Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of our spirits and live!"
The Bible testifies that just as we have physical fathers, also we have a Father of our spirits. For this reason in many instances of the Bible the church members are referred to as brothers and sisters (Jas 2:14-15).
Now we see that in the heavenly family system we can find Father and children, but what is missing in this family system? Since in the earthly family system there is a mother, shouldn’t there also be a Mother of our spirits?
Gal 4:26 "But the Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our mother."
This verse reveals that there is exists a Heavenly Mother for the children who are to be saved.
Elohim God, who created man in the beginning, will appear as the Spirit and the Bride in the last days.
Rev. 22:17 "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"
Our Father AhnSahngHong is our God- the Holy Spirit in the last age.
Who is the Bride of the Holy Spirit?
Rev 21:9-10 "One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues came and said to me, "Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb." And he...showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God."

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!..."
