[WMSCOG] The Things God Hates

 World Mission Society Church of God believes in God the Mother and preach Her. Also we keep God's commandments. It is not unfamiliar, mankind just lack of awareness that the existence of God the Mother. Through all things of nature, being physical father and mother, God gives us the wisdom to realize Heavenly thing. You look into the testimonies of the bible about the Heavenly mother.

Those who do not keep God's feasts such as the Sabbath and the Passover quote the following verse to justify their faith:


Your New Moon festivals and your appointed feasts my soul hates. They have become a burden to me; I am weary of bearing them. (Isaiah 1:14)


Does this verse really mean that God hates such feasts as the Sabbath and the Passover? Why does He hate the feasts He appointed? There is something that is not consistent. We should see the context of before and after when reading the Bible. It's hard to understand the exact meaning with a single verse only. Let's see the context of before and after Isaiah 1:14.


Hear, O heavens! Listen, O earth! For the LORD has spoken: "I reared children and brought them up, but they have rebelled against me... Ah, sinful nation, a people loaded with guilt, a brood of evildoers, children given to corruption! They have forsaken the LORD; they have spurned the Holy One of Israel and turned their backs on him...  Hear the word of the LORD, you rulers of Sodom; listen to the law of our God, you people of Gomorrah!... Stop bringing meaningless offerings! Your incense is detestable to me. New Moons, Sabbaths and convocations-- I cannot bear your evil assemblies. Your New Moon festivals and your appointed feasts my soul hates. They have become a burden to me; I am weary of bearing them. (Isaiah 1:2-14)


To whom does He say this? God said this to people who have rebelled against God and have done wickedness in the eyes of God. Will those who have committed sin against God and who are corrupters keep God's feasts truthfully? It's obvious that they will not. On the contrary, the prophet Isaiah wrote clearly that the Sabbath should be kept.


Blessed is the man who does this, the man who holds it fast, who keeps the Sabbath without desecrating it, and keeps his hand from doing any evil. (Isaiah 56:2)


The fourth commandment of the Ten Commandments is about the Sabbath day. It's written in many places of the Bible that the seven feasts should be observed as well as the Sabbath.


These are the LORD's appointed feasts, the sacred assemblies you are to proclaim at their appointed times: The LORD's Passover begins at twilight on the fourteenth day of the first month. On the fifteenth day of that month the LORD's Feast of Unleavened Bread begins... "Say to the Israelites: 'On the fifteenth day of the seventh month the LORD's Feast of Tabernacles begins, and it lasts for seven days....'" (Leviticus 23:4-5; 34)


He [Jesus Christ] 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)


And he said to them, "I [Jesus] have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. (Luke 22:15)


When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place (Acts 2:1)


But when the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles was near... Not until halfway through the Feast did Jesus go up to the temple courts and begin to teach... 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... (John 7:2; 14; 37-39)


Those who obey the Words of God according to the Bible must keep God's feasts such as the Sabbath day, the Passover, the Day of Pentecost and the Feast of Tabernacles. The feasts which are hated by God and are not found in the Bible are man-made feasts God did not command. These include such feasts as the Sunday service, Christmas, Thanksgiving Day and Easter which have been arbitrarily appointed by men.

[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)


Do you have evidence that you are the children of God?

[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.
