It is said that the scripture cannot be broken. Revelation that was recorded 2,000 years ago must be entirely fulfilled as it is written”.
He also said “There must be physical reality that appeared according to the Book of Revelation. The purpose of God is to create the Kingdom of God by harvesting the ripen fruits from the seed that was sowed 2,000 years ago. God creates God’s new kingdom and new people with those people who are born with God’s seed today.”
Chairman Lee continued stating that, “The world that is created at the time of Revelation is the world of Shincheonji. There is the new heaven and new earth recorded in Revelation chapter 21. It means one generation passes away and the new generation comes.”
