Church of God Faith and Truth
Christ Ahnsahnghong came from Korea for the salvation of mankind according to the prophecies of the Bible. The Bible is the only book that reveals who Christ is. Just as the Bible prophesied about First Coming Christ 2,000 years ago, it prophesies about Second Coming Christ through many prophecies such as the “Throne of King David” and the “Parable of the Fig Tree." Christ Ahnsahnghong came according to the prophecies of the Bible, re-established the Church of God in the pattern of the early Church, and proclaimed God the Mother, who is the last secret of the Bible.
God the Mother refers to the female image of God. Most people assume that there is only one God the Father. However, the Bible testifies to the existence of two images of God--the male image of God and the female image of God--from the first chapter of Genesis to the last chapter of Revelation.
God’s people receive the blessing of eternal life when they keep the feasts of the new covenant in spiritual Zion. There are seven annual feasts—the Passover, the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the Feast of Firstfruits (the Day of Resurrection), the Feast of Weeks (the Day of Pentecost), the Feast of Trumpets, the Day of Atonement, and the Feast of Tabernacles, along with the weekly feast, the Sabbath.
The gospel is the good news, and more specifically, it is the new covenant. The saints and apostles of the early Church kept and preached the truth of the new covenant such as the Passover and the Sabbath just as Jesus taught them.
Women’s veil is the regulation that women must wear a veil when they pray or keep worship services as written in 1 Corinthians 11. This regulation shows that men wear nothing on their heads and that women should wear a veil.

Jesus Christ is the Savior who came in the flesh and was sacrificed on the cross 2,000 years ago for the salvation of all mankind. After being baptized at the age of thirty, He started His ministry and preached the gospel of the kingdom for three years, establishing the new covenant. He was rejected by the Jews and the religious leaders of that time and was arrested the night he established the New Covenant Passover, which contains the forgiveness of sins and eternal life. He died on the cross the next day and on the third day, He was resurrected and ascended to heaven forty days later. Before His ascension, He entrusted His disciples with the mission to preach the gospel of the kingdom to the whole world. Jesus’ whole life was a fulfillment of the prophecies in the Bible, and was a sacrifice and love for the salvation of mankind. The precious blood of Christ that was shed on the cross opened the way for mankind to wash away their sins to enter the kingdom of heaven.
