The Church of God says we opposers are incorrectly interpreting what Revelation 21 says. Let’s take a look.
Revelation 21-The New Jerusalem
1) Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea.
Right away the chapter begins with an event that has not yet happened.
2) I saw the Holy City, the New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. 3) And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 4) He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.
Still none of these events have taken place.
Revelation 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 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.
So the church’s position is that us opposers don’t understand that this chapter 21’s verses aren’t in chronological order. Why wouldn’t it be “in” order? You can try to say chapters and/or books of the bible aren’t in chronological order. But why would verses be out of order? Again, doesn’t make logical sense. These events are all under the heading of The New Jerusalem. You still cannot justify worshipping a mother god. Even if this New Jerusalem was a person and not a place, you still would be wrong because we are still living on this “old” earth.
And not only that…Revelation 20 says The Thousand Years. So the Church of God is still out of order. The events of the new heaven & new earth occur AFTER 1,000 years.
So it seems as though the church is trying to say it doesn’t matter what the bible says, we are still going to worship a god the mother. Even though in Jeremiah 44, the bible testifies that God says worshipping the queen of heaven is detestable.
In Revelation 21:4 it says “HE” will wipe every tear from their eyes. Well last I checked, Zhang isn’t a “he” nor has Ahnsahnghong wiped the tears of the members of Church of God’s eyes. There is still death, mourning, crying and pain on this “old” earth for the new heavens and new earth have not yet appeared.
Your turn Church of God. What will you make up next to show your members that you are NOT the true church?
Great post! and yea they keep trying so hard to make it seem zahng is mother…how sad
Good post FFR. I also like the description of the New Jerusalem later in Rev 21. How do they explain mother's dimensions?
The study the most holy place and mother is about the dimensions
