Shincheonji Bible Study, the secrets of the kingdom of heaven


Shincheonji Bible Study, the secrets of the kingdom of heaven


Do you know what the Top-Secret throughout the whole biblical history might be?


Can you even imagine? If you don't know of it, you won't be able to belong to 'you' who Jesus has given the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven. (Mt 13:11)


The secrets of the kingdom of heaven is those about God and His kingdom. The word of 'secret' is recorded 38 times in the Bible (38 chapters, 46 verses). Why did the kingdom of heaven have to be the Top-Secret throughout the whole biblical history? There were some inexpressible reasons that God had to keep it secret in parables.


However, in ps 78:2~3, God prophesied through prophet saying, 'I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter hidden things, things from of old--what we have heard and known, what our fathers have told us.' And the prophecy had been fulfilled on Jesus' 1st Coming, as in Mt 13:34~5, 'Jesus spoke all these things to the crowd in parables; he did not say anything to them without using a parable. So was fulfilled what was spoken through the prophet: 'I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter things hidden since the creation of the world.' 

Yet not all of Jesus' words were the secrets but only the one about the kingdom of heaven was. And a time will come that we all know plainly about God and his kingdom as it is said in Jn 16:25, 'Though I have been speaking figuratively, a time is coming when I will no longer use thus kind of language but will tell you plainly about my Father.'


Therefore we have to know the hidden secrets of kingdom of heaven in order to enter the kingdom of heaven. Otherwise we won't be able to enter the kingdom of heaven but will fall into the hell instead. So it is such a important matter for us to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven. 


In Mt 13:11, 'the parables of scattering the seed is the secrets of the kingdom of heaven.' If you want to know about these secrets of the kingdom of heaven, you have to seek and find out where and know who will bring the key to the kingdom of heaven as it is said in Mt 7:7, 'Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.'
