[World Mission Society Church of God] The World Mission Society Church of God believes in God the Father and God the Mother according to the Bible
World Mission Society Church of God believes in the savior in this Holy Spirit age, Christ AhnSahngHong and God the Mother. Christ AhnSahngHong announced the New covenant before 2,000 years and God the Mother. like our physical mother gives us the physical life, hope you receive God the Mother and get the eternal life.
One of things that many people misunderstand about the Bible is that there is only God the Father. However, the Bible clearly reveals that there exists God the Mother as well God the Father from the first page of the Bible.
Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea...." So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. (Genesis 1:26-27)
If there is only one God, God the Father, it should read ‘my image’ not ‘our image.’ In addition, only ‘male’ should have been created in the image of God the Father. But, is there only male created in the image of God? Isn’t there also ‘female’? The fact that male and female were created in the image of God is the evidence that God’s image includes God the Father and God the Mother. It’s very important to know the existence of God the Father and God the Mother because it’s prophesied that God the Father and God the Mother are to appear to give us the water of life in the last days.
The Spirit [God the Father] and the bride [God the Mother] 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. (Revelation 22:17)
Those who have met God the Father and God the Mother can receive the water of life. People who only know God the Father do not know God whom we must press on to know. The World Mission Society Church of God (WMSCOG) receives the water of life from the Spirit and the bride according to the words of the Bible.

[World Mission Society Church of God] The reason it’s written that God ‘alone’ created the heavens and the earth while two God did
World Mission Society Church of God only follows the teachings of the Bible and believes in the Second Coming Christ Ahnsahnghong and God the Mother.
The Bible says that God the Father and God the Mother created the heavens and the earth.
Then God [Elohim] said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground." So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. (Genesis 1:26-27)
In Genesis Chapter 1 which described the process of the Creation, God is referred to as ‘Elohim,’ the plural form. In addition, the plural pronoun ‘Us’ was used. If there were only one God, God should been referred to as the singular noun ‘El’ or ‘Eloah,’ and the singular pronoun ‘Me’ should been used. God the Creator is not only one. From the passage “Male and female were created in the image of God,” we can understand that there are two Gods: God the Father and God the Mother.
However, in other verse, it’s written that God ‘alone’ created the heavens and the earth.
I am the LORD, who has made all things, who alone stretched out the heavens, who spread out the earth by myself (Isaiah 44:24)
Why is it written that God ‘alone’ created the heavens and the earth in the book of Isaiah while it’s written that two Gods did in the book of Genesis? Is one of the two verses wrong? Or, is the Bible contradictory? No. God let us know the reason through Adam and Eve, the first man and woman, who were created in the image of God.
For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh. (Genesis 2:24)
It’s obvious that Adam and Eve are two individuals, who existed as a man and a woman respectively. However, it’s written that Adam and Eve will be united and become one flesh. Therefore, in the Bible, it’s referred to as one man or Adam as the representative when mentioning Adam and Eve together.
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. But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one man [Adam]… (Romans 5:14-15)
It was not just Adam alone who committed the sin of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Both Adam and Eve ate from the tree of the knowledge; moreover Eve did first. However, the Bible wrote the sin of the tree of the knowledge as that of one man. It’s because Adam and Eve are considered one, being united, and Adam is referred to as the representative. This shows the reason it’s written that God ‘alone’ created the heavens and the earth, by uniting God the Father and God the Mother.
Adam and Eve are the first man and woman, who were created in the image of God the Father and God the Mother. God expressed the sin of Adam and Eve as that of ‘one man’ and referred to Adam as the representative of the two. In the same way, while God the Father and God the Mother performed the Creation together, it’s expressed that God ‘alone’ did and God the Father is presented as the representative of the Creation Work.
Some people deny the holy divine nature of two Gods seen through what has been made, without knowing the profound meaning of the Bible. However, the Bible clearly testifies to God the Father and God the Mother from the first Chapter of Genesis to the last Chapter of Revelation.

[World Mission Society Church of God] Regarding the instance that He cannot die again
World Mission Society Church of God believe in Christ Ahnsahnghong and
preach Him. We can find out the fact that only The Second Coming Jesus can restored the gospel of the early church through the Bible. According to the prophecies, Christ Ahnsahnghong restored the Truth of the life in this age.
Regarding the instance that He cannot die again
Those who deny the Second Coming Christ, Ahnsahnghong, of the World Mission Society Church of God claim as follows:
The Bible says that “Christ cannot die again.” But Ahnsahnghong passed away. Therefore, He is not the Second Coming Christ.
However, they insist such a claim because they could not understand the matter of a spiritual body and a natural boy properly and interpreted the Bible wrongly.
If we have been united with him like this in his death, we will certainly also be united with him in his resurrection…. Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him. For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him. (Romans 6:5-9)
This Verse means that those who are baptized will receive eternal life which does not die as Christ died and was raised from the dead. Of course, it does not mean that a natural body will live forever. They will live forever without death as God’s children with spiritual bodies.
…and they can no longer die; for they are like the angels. They are God's children, since they are children of the resurrection. (Luke 20:36)
So will it be with the resurrection of the dead. The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised imperishable; it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; it is sown a natural body [physical body], it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body [physical body], there is also a spiritual body. (1 Corinthians 15:42-44)
The resurrection means that the natural body will be changed into a spiritual body to live for good. Just as a caterpillar is clothed with a new body of a dragonfly, so one who receives God will be changed to a new body which can live forever according to the promise of God.
I declare to you, brothers, that flesh and blood [what is made of flesh and blood] cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable. Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed-- in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. For the perishable [what is mortal] must clothe itself with the imperishable [what is immortal], and the mortal with immortality. When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: "Death has been swallowed up in victory." (1 Corinthians 15:51-54)
Flesh and blood – visible bodies – cannot inherit the kingdom of God. It’s because we with bodies cannot enter the kingdom of heaven which is the kingdom of the Spiritual God. Therefore, the words “He cannot die again” are not about the natural body but the spiritual body.
Jesus, who had been in a spiritual body, has come a second time in the flesh as He did 2,000 years ago to bring salvation to mankind (Hebrews 9:28.) Those who truly understand and follow the will of God should at least know that the natural body is one thing and the spiritual body is totally another thing.
[World Mission Society Church of God] The will of God or the command of an emperor?
World Mission Society Church of God obeys the bible (the word of God).
Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. (Matthew 7:21)
Even new Christians commonly know the Ten Commandments. The fourth commandment of the Ten is “Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.” However today, nearly all churches keep Sunday, the first day of the week, as the Lord’s Day instead of Saturday, the seventh day. Some even make illogical claims and absurd arguments such as “every day is the Sabbath day” or “Sunday is the seventh day.”
2,000 years ago, not only Jesus and his disciples but also the apostles and saints of the Early Church did not submit to Sunday Legislation enacted by a Roman Emperor and kept the Sabbath day to the end even though they were persecuted and martyred. They stuck to their noble faith while fleeing into the desert and mountains lest their religious purity should be trampled. But many people followed the Sunday Law of the Emperor. They threw away the Sabbath day of Jesus like an old shoe and kept the Sunday service. In return, they were given considerable power from the Roman Emperor.
Whose command should we follow? Will you obey the will of God whatever people say while expecting the kingdom of heaven? Or, will you submit to the command of the Emperor and continue to make vain efforts by keeping the Sunday service?
Are you still walking the opposite way to the will of God in accordance with the command of the specter of a Ruler who cried out for Sunday? Or, are you living a faith life in a vegetative state due to the influence of large churches and spineless denominations which have continuously repeated the division and unification according to the interests of people. If you are living a life of such lukewarm faith, how about leaving the contaminated church in search of the truth?
You will have to think a lot which faith will be considered to be obedient to the will of God, and reflect on the goal of your faith. Then, you will be able to realize the fact that the Sabbath day and the Passover should be kept according to the will of God.

[World Mission Society Church of God] Why did He have to come as a Son?
World Mission Society Church of God- In this age, only God the Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and God the Mother (Heavenly Mother) can give us salvation.
“But do not have God speak to us or we will die.”
The people of Israel cried out to Moses. They felt they could die because the words of God sounded like the great thunder and lightning and the trumpet to them. They’re scared. When they heard the words of God from Moses who alone was able to hear the voice of God, they could follow the will of God (in the Desert of Sinai at the time of Exodus.)
“It thundered or an angel spoke to him.”
Many people heard the words of God but they said it had thundered. But, the Apostle Paul heard the voice of God correctly and wrote: “I have glorified it, and will glorify it again.” Through John, people could listen to the words of God correctly (at Ephesus in around 90 A.D.)
Both in the time of Exodus and in around 90 A.D., people were not able to hear the voice of Almighty God. As creatures, they could not bear the words of God, which sounded like the thunder and lightning. For this reason, God came to the earth as a man in the appearance of a creature, hiding His power and glory.
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he [Jesus] will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. (Isaiah 9:6)
And He let God’s children know the way to salvation one by one and set examples for us. Putting Him in the shoes of the Son like us, He taught how we can follow the words of God to get salvation.
I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. (John 13:15)
Jesus set the example of ‘being baptized’ as a sign of salvation (Matthew 3:13-16.) And He also set the example of ‘keeping the Sabbath’ for us to get the blessing of rest (Luke 4:16,) and the example of ‘observing the Passover’ which promises the blessing of the forgiveness of sins (Matthew 26:19.) In addition, He asked His children as follows just before He ascended to heaven:
Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. (Matthew 28:19-20)
It's the mind of God. God worried that His children might not be able to follow the way of salvation. So He carefully set examples one by one. Can you hear the words of God? “Please, follow the way I walked. Let’s go to our hometown -- the kingdom of heaven.”

[World Mission Society church of God] Sunday was kept because collections (offerings) were made on the first day of every week?
The World Mission Society Church of God believes Christ Ahnsahnghong and heavenly mother who came as savioirs in the age of holy spirit according to all propecies of the Bible
Some claim that the Sabbath day of the Old Testament has been changed to Sunday in the time of the New Testament because collections (offerings) were made on the first day of every week or every Sunday by quoting 1 Corinthians 16:2.
Now about the collection for God's people: Do what I told the Galatian churches to do. On the first day of every week (Every Sunday: GNT), each one of you should set aside a sum of money in keeping with his income, saving it up, so that when I come no collections will have to be made. (1 Corinthians 16:1-2)
I feel pity for their efforts to find evidence of the Sunday service which is not found on the Bible. First, the above verse is not a record of worshiping on Sundays and giving offerings. The Apostle Paul said, “When I come no collections will have to be made (KJV: There be no gatherings when I come).” If it had been a regular collection, it should have been made whether the Apostle Paul came or not, shouldn’t it? If fact, the collection mentioned above was a special offering for helping out the Jerusalem Church.
There is no need for me to write to you about this service to the saints… So I thought it necessary to urge the brothers to visit you in advance and finish the arrangements for the generous gift [KJV: bounty] you had promised. Then it will be ready as a generous gift, not as one grudgingly given… This service that you perform is not only supplying the needs of God's people but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God. (2 Corinthians 9:1-12)
It’s wrong to insist that it’s evidence that the Sunday service was kept by citing the verse which is not about a regular offering but a special offering. In addition, it’s also not a record of worshiping on the first day of every week. On the contrary, it proves that they worked on the first day of every week. It’s written, “On the first day of every week, each one of you should set aside a sum of money in keeping with his income (GNT: Every Sunday each of you must put aside some money, in proportion to what you have earned).” It means that they must put aside some money, in proportion to what they have earned on Sunday. To earn money on the first day of the week, they must have worked on Sundays, mustn’t they? In other words, the verse of matter means that they must put aside some money earned on the first day of every week in advance not to be in hurry to collect the special offering when the Apostle Paul comes.
However, those who try to find evidence of the Sunday service in any way claim that ‘collections (offerings)’ were made on the ‘first day of every week’ by extracting only the two phrases ‘collections’ and ‘the first day of every week.’ How strange their way of interpretation is! I suppose that they cannot see the Sabbath recorded about 135 times in the Bible (80 times in the Old Testament and 55 times in the New Testament) because they read the Bible in such a strange way.

[World Mission Society Church of God] Evidence of God’s children
The World Mission Society Church of God which keeps and follows the three times seven feasts testified in the bible is a truth church.
God commanded to keep the seventh day as the holy feast of God.
“Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘These are my appointed feasts, the appointed feasts of the LORD, which you are to proclaim as sacred assemblies. ” ‘There are six days when you may work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of rest, a day of sacred assembly. You are not to do any work; wherever you live, it is a Sabbath to the LORD… (Leviticus 23:2-3)
The Sabbath day is a sign between God and the children of God.
“Say to the Israelites, ‘You must observe my Sabbaths. This will be a sign between me and you [God and God's people] for the generations to come, so you may know that I am the LORD, who makes you holy. ” ‘Observe the Sabbath, because it is holy to you. Anyone who desecrates it must be put to death; whoever does any work on that day must be cut off from his people… (Exodus 31:13-14)
I [God] gave them my decrees and made known to them my laws, for the man who obeys them will live by them. Also I gave them my Sabbaths as a sign between us, so they would know that I the LORD made them holy. (Ezekiel 20:11-12)
Those who do not keep the Sabbath day profane God, which is the evidence of false prophets.
Her priests do violence to my law and profane my holy things; they do not distinguish between the holy and the common; they teach that there is no difference between the unclean and the clean; and they shut their eyes to the keeping of my Sabbaths [they ignore the Sabbath: GNT], so that I am profaned among them. (Ezekiel 22:26)

[World Mission Society Church of God] The greatest miracle in the world
The greatest miracle in the world
Which one is the greater miracle: Rising from the dead or living eternally?
Of course, the latter is. Even if someone rises from the dead, he will die again some day. Eternal living is really the greatest miracle in the world. “Eternal life”? the area which has not been accomplished even by the state-of-the-art medical science and which will not be fulfilled by men. 2,000 years ago, God let mankind, who were destined to die, know how to experience the miracle of living forever. He allowed it through the Passover of the new covenant.
Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life … (John 6:53-54)
And he said to them, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer… “This [Bread] is my body … This cup [Wine] is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you. (Luke 22:15-20)
However, Satan, who watched thirstily for a chance to destroy God’s work, abolished the Passover at the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD.
Christ Ahnsahnghong, God who has come again, said as follows to let us know what the greatest miracle in the world is and how important the Passover is:
People say that the manna which came down from heaven in the wilderness is a miracle, and they say that raising Lazarus from the dead is a miracle.
Yet, in the eyes of God, neither being cured of diseases nor rising from the dead is a miracle.
All people including Lazarus and those who ate the manna in the wilderness died.
However, those who eat and drink the flesh and blood of Jesus will live even though they die; and they will never die.
Obtaining eternal life by eating the bread of life!
Giving life through the Passover to those who are to die; there is no greater miracle than this.
The most important thing to us is the flesh and blood of Jesus, which was allowed through His death on the cross.
In this age, we should not seek miracles and signs.
We should seek eternal life.
We must understand deeply and cherish this covenant of life God gives us, and must always give thanks to God.”
I pray that all people around the world will experience the greatest miracle in the world: living forever with the flesh and blood God which was allowed through His death on the cross.

[World Mission Society Church of God] Although they knew the Bible
Is it sufficient just to know the Bible? 2,000 years ago, the Jews took pride in knowing the Bible more than any other people. To considerable degree, it was true that they knew the Bible. Then, did they recognize Christ? As a matter of course, they also had to recognize Jesus because the Bible testifies about Christ. Of course, they understood who Jesus was. So they crucified Jesus who said he came as the "Son of God" on the cross.
Jesus said he came as the "Son" of God, as if he had been a different being from God the Father Jehovah.
"Abba", Father," he said, "everything is possible for you. Take this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will." (Mark 14:36)
"This, then, is how you should pray: " 'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, (Matthew 6:9)
Jesus called out with a loud voice, "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit." When he had said this, he breathed his last. (Luke 23:46)
Jesus described God Jehovah as the Almighty One and Himself as a child who obeys the commands of the Father. That is, he regarded himself as the same position like us. Here, don't you have a question? Why did the Jews resent Jesus when he said he came as the Son of God, which might have not been any problem? Further, why did they crucify Him on the cross?
“… I [Jesus] and the Father are one." Again the Jews picked up stones to stone him, but Jesus said to them, "I have shown you many great miracles from the Father. For which of these do you stone me?" "We are not stoning you for any of these," replied the Jews, "but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God." (John 10:30-33)
Jesus said to them, "My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I, too, am working." For this reason the Jews tried all the harder to kill him; not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God. (John 5:17-18)
When Jesus said, "I and the Father are one," the Jews responded by saying "You, a mere man, claim to be God." Also, when Jesus said to them, "My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I, too, am working," they blamed him for making himself equal with God. Why did they understand "calling God his own Father" as "making himself equal with God"?
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. (Isaiah 9:6)
The Jews knew the prophecy of the prophet Isaiah. In around 700 B.C., the prophet Isaiah foretold that ‘Almighty God would come as a Son.’ Therefore, the Jews got into rage when he said, "I and Father are one." They knew the Bible better than the disciples.
Philip said, "Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us." Jesus answered: "Don't you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'? Don't you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you are not just my own. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work. (John 14:8-10)
Philip was not able to understand the words of Jesus properly although he had been with Jesus. He could not understand why Jesus called himself the "Son of God" until he learned many teachings after Jesus ascended to heaven.
The Jews, who understood the word of Jesus by themselves, rejected Jesus and were destroyed after all. Philip, who realized after being taught from Jesus, was blessed. What's the difference between them? Just knowing the Bible is not sufficient. It's no more than mere acquisition of knowledge. To know the Bible means "to realize the words and put them in practice."
The World Mission Society Church of God (WMSCOG) preaches Christ of the age of the Holy Spirit to great multitude of Christians: God the Holy Spirit in the male image and God the Mother, the bride in the female image witnessed by the Bible from the 1st Chapter of Genesis to the 22nd Chapter of Revelation. At this, most people says that they came to know God the Mother testified by the Bible for the first time, giving a slight nod.
While seeing many people leaving, saying that they came to know Christ who has come as the Spirit and the bride in the Bible, I thought of the Jews. They also knew but did not believe.
Jesus said he came as the "Son" of God, as if he had been a different being from God the Father Jehovah.
"Abba", Father," he said, "everything is possible for you. Take this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will." (Mark 14:36)
"This, then, is how you should pray: " 'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, (Matthew 6:9)
Jesus called out with a loud voice, "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit." When he had said this, he breathed his last. (Luke 23:46)
Jesus described God Jehovah as the Almighty One and Himself as a child who obeys the commands of the Father. That is, he regarded himself as the same position like us. Here, don't you have a question? Why did the Jews resent Jesus when he said he came as the Son of God, which might have not been any problem? Further, why did they crucify Him on the cross?
“… I [Jesus] and the Father are one." Again the Jews picked up stones to stone him, but Jesus said to them, "I have shown you many great miracles from the Father. For which of these do you stone me?" "We are not stoning you for any of these," replied the Jews, "but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God." (John 10:30-33)
Jesus said to them, "My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I, too, am working." For this reason the Jews tried all the harder to kill him; not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God. (John 5:17-18)
When Jesus said, "I and the Father are one," the Jews responded by saying "You, a mere man, claim to be God." Also, when Jesus said to them, "My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I, too, am working," they blamed him for making himself equal with God.

Although they knew the Bible
Is it sufficient just to know the Bible? 2,000 years ago, the Jews took pride in knowing the Bible more than any other people. To considerable degree, it was true that they knew the Bible. Then, did they recognize Christ? As a matter of course, they also had to recognize Jesus because the Bible testifies about Christ. Of course, they understood who Jesus was. So they crucified Jesus who said he came as the "Son of God" on the cross.
Jesus said he came as the "Son" of God, as if he had been a different being from God the Father Jehovah.
"Abba", Father," he said, "everything is possible for you. Take this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will." (Mark 14:36)

[World Mission Society Church of God] To those who distort the Sabbath day observed by Jesus
World Mission Society Church of God- In this age, only God the Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and God the Mother (Heavenly Mother) can give us salvation.
Today, there are people who call themselves "Orthodox" while worshiping on Sunday which is not based on the Bible and distorting the truth by claiming that "Jesus did not keep the Sabbath day" with regard to the verse indicating that Jesus observed the Sabbath day. Yet, they overlook one thing: if they misinterpret the verse regarding the Sabbath day kept by Jesus as "Jesus did not keep the Sabbath", they lose the slightest opportunity to justify the "Sunday service" they observe.
First, let's see the verse about the Sabbath day observed by Jesus.
He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. And he stood up to read. (Luke 4:16)
About the above Verse, they distort the truth by saying: "At first glance, it seems that Jesus kept the Sabbath day. However, if you read it carefully once more, you will find that there is no word "observe." The Bible says, "On the Sabbath day, Jesus went into the synagogue to read the Bible." Can we understand it today as ‘Jesus observed the Sabbath day?’”
They insist that it's not about keeping the Sabbath day since there is no direct expression "observe". Then, let's apply their logic to the Sunday service the same way. Are there any verses indicating Jesus kept the Sunday service? At least, are they any record that Jesus went into the synagogue to read the Bible? They must first provide the ground for the Sunday service before they argue about the Sabbath day. They distort the truth by claiming that the Sabbath day was not observed although there is a record of keeping the Sabbath day. I wonder on what ground they keep the Sunday service. Isn’t it strange?
The word "custom" is the translation of the Greek word "ἔθω (εἰωθὸς)", which means "custom, common practice or ritual." In other words, we can confirm that the Sabbath day is a day observed as a custom, common practice or ritual. Of course, since the Sabbath day is one of God's Commandments, it can be also called "as his custom was or as he did as usual." It's because Jesus observed the Sabbath day as his custom was or as he did as usual.
Why do they diligently keep the Sunday service which was not kept by Jesus without considering observing the Sabbath day kept by Jesus? Believing in God with lips only; the demons also do. The demons also believe in God (James 2:19), the demons also acknowledged Jesus as the Lord (Matthew 8:29), and even the evil spirit said he knew Jesus (Acts 19:15.) If we get salvation as long as we believe without action, it can be also said that the demons and evil spirits who are destined to be destroyed will be saved. The difference between the devils who are destined to be destroyed and the Christians who will be saved depends on whether or not to do according to the words of God.
