The Scriptures That Say It Must Happen in This Way

Today there are so many churches in the world, and each of them claims they have the true faith. However, the standard of one’s faith is God’s word, not human thoughts or ideas. When we make the words of the Bible the center of our faith, we can walk the right path of faith towards the eternal kingdom of heaven.

The Bible consists of God’s prophecies showing what is to occur in the future. So, by studying the Bible carefully, we can discover the true path of faith. Now, let us have time to solidify our faith by examining the fact that God has promised salvation to His children who repent and return into the arms of God the Mother—Heavenly Jerusalem.


Every word of the Bible must be fulfilled


The Bible is the word of prophecy; the prophets who were moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God (2 Pe 1:20–21). God commanded us not to add to or subtract from His word.

Dt 4:2 Do not add to what I command you and do not subtract from it, but keep the commands of the LORD your God that I give you.

Every word in the 66 books of the Bible is given by God. So, we must not add to it or take anything away from it. The Bible should not be interpreted based on human thoughts such as individual philosophies or ideas. When we study the Bible in its original context, we can find the right path to salvation. So, the Bible emphasizes God’s command again in the last chapter of Revelation: If anyone adds anything to God’s words recorded in the Bible, God will add to him the plagues described in the book, and if anyone takes anything away from them, God will take away his salvation (Rev 22:18–19).

Jesus taught us the importance of Bible prophecy as follows:

Mt 26:50–54 Jesus replied, “Friend, do what you came for.” Then the men stepped forward, seized Jesus and arrested him. With that, one of Jesus’ companions reached for his sword, drew it out and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his ear. “Put your sword back in its place,” Jesus said to him, “for all who draw the sword will die by the sword. Do you think I cannot call on my Father, and he will at once put at my disposal more than twelve legions of angels? But how then would the Scriptures be fulfilled that say it must happen in this way?”

The above verses describe the scene where Judas Iscariot, who sold Jesus for 30 pieces of silver, was handing Him over to the high priest’s servants. At that time, Peter drew out his sword and tried to fight to defend Jesus. However, Jesus stopped Peter and reminded him that the Bible is God’s word which must be fulfilled.

Jesus could have called the myriads of angels in heaven to defeat them if He had wished to avoid the situation. However, if He had done so, the prophecy that Christ would bear all mankind’s sins and infirmities and offer Himself as a sacrifice of atonement would not have been fulfilled. So Jesus said, “But how then would the Scriptures be fulfilled that say it must happen in this way?” By this Jesus showed His strong will to surely fulfill every word recorded in the Bible.


The earthly family and the heavenly family


Through Jesus’ teaching, we can be sure that the Bible is God’s true word which must be fulfilled. When we look at God’s word without adding our own thoughts to it or taking anything away from it, we can find the true Savior and the right path of faith. Among the teachings of the Bible that must be considered absolute, let’s examine the teaching about Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother.

Heb 8:5 They serve at a sanctuary that is a copy and shadow of what is in heaven. This is why Moses was warned when he was about to build the tabernacle: “See to it that you make everything according to the pattern shown you on the mountain.”

Moses built the earthly tabernacle according to the pattern of the heavenly sanctuary which God had shown him. Through this fact, we can understand that the things on the earth are a copy and shadow of the real things in heaven. It is the same with the family system. A family basically consists of a father, a mother, and their children. Since the earthly family is a copy of the heavenly family, there must be Father, Mother and Their children in the heavenly family, too.

Heb 12:9 Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of our spirits and live!

The Bible tells us that as there is a father in the earthly family, so there must be Father in the heavenly family who gave birth to our souls. We can confirm this fact through the teaching Jesus Himself gave to His disciples when He came to this earth.

Mt 6:8–9 “Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. This, then, is how you should pray: ‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name . . .’ ”

Jesus has clearly taught us to call God “our Father.” He has shown us that there is God our Father in the heavenly family who rues over the kingdom of heaven, just as there is a father in the earthly family.

The title “father” can only be used for a man who has children. As a man has children who call him “father” in the earthly family, so God has sons and daughters who call Him “Father” in the heavenly family.

2 Co 6:17–18 “. . . I will receive you. I will be a Father to you, and you will be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.”

God has said He will be a Father to us and we will be His sons and daughters. If there are children as well as a father in the earthly family, who else must exist? There must be a mother who gave birth to children. What about the heavenly family that is the reality?

Gal 4:26 But the Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our mother.

The Bible clearly testifies that there is our spiritual Mother who gave birth to our souls in the spiritual family. The earthly family is composed of a father, a mother, and their children. Likewise, the heavenly family consists of God the Father, God the Mother, and Their children.

Despite this definite testimony, those who have not heard about God the Mother deny the words of the Bible, blinded by their own fixed ideas. The Bible has clearly prophesied about our spiritual Mother, but they deny or disbelieve the existence of God the Mother. They will not be saved, because they disobey God’s command not to add to or take away from the words of the Bible.

The Bible is God’s absolute word that must take priority over everything else. We need to have a humble attitude toward the words of the Bible, instead of stubbornly insisting on our own ideas. Only then can we find the truth.


Biblical evidence for the existence of God the Mother


God the Father testified about God the Mother in many places of the Bible. We can confirm it in Genesis 1—the first chapter of the Bible—as well.

Ge 1:26–27 Then God 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.

God, when creating all things, said, “Let us make man in our image, in our likeness.” Through the plural expression “us,” God taught us that it was not the Father alone who created mankind. Then, how many Gods are there?

When man was made in the image of God, male and female were created. So, God who said, “Let us make man in our image,” must be two—the male image of God and the female image of God. Human beings have called the male image of God “Father.” What should we call the female image of God, then? We should call Her “Mother.”

In other words, man and woman are the creatures made by the hands of God the Father and God the Mother respectively. However, many people have fixed ideas about God and insist that there is only one God, the Father. They assume that the reason God said, “Let us make man,” was because He was with angels. However, the angels are creatures of God, not the creators who made man.

Every teaching in the Bible from Genesis to Revelation proves the existence of Heav-enly Mother. Nevertheless, they try to interpret it differently with their own words and ideas. This is an act of disobeying God’s command not to add to or take away from the Bible. When we accept the words of the Bible as they are, we can receive God and enter the eternal kingdom of heaven, being guided by God into the truth.


The new covenant, the truth that enables us to become God’s Children


If children just call a man and a woman “father” and “mother,” can they become a family? No, they can’t. As the members of a biological family are related to each other by blood, so the members of the spiritual family are related by blood.

Mt 26:17–19, 26–28 On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Where do you want us to make preparations for you to eat the Passover?” He replied, “Go into the city to a certain man and tell him, ‘The Teacher says: My appointed time is near. I am going to celebrate the Passover with my disciples at your house.’ ” So the disciples did as Jesus had directed them and prepared the Passover . . . While they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take and eat; this is my body.” Then he took the cup, gave thanks and offered it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you. This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.”

Jesus said, “I am going to celebrate the Passover,” and made His disciples prepare the Passover. Then He promised His holy body and blood with bread and wine at the Holy Supper of the Passover. Those who eat and drink the bread and wine of the Passover do not just eat and drink something; they inherit the holy flesh and blood of God.

Only God’s children, who have inherited God’s flesh and blood through the Passover of the new covenant, can go back to their eternal heavenly home. So, God Himself testifies that we are His children who will return to the kingdom of heaven.

Ro 8:16–18 The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children. Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory. I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.

The Apostle Paul wrote, “The Spirit himself testifies that we are God’s children.” God recognizes His children by looking at His flesh and blood that has been passed down from Him to them through the Passover. So, Paul emphasized the importance of the Passover in his letter to the members of the church at Corinth, “For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you” (1 Co 11:23–26).

If those who do not keep the Passover say to God, “Lord, we are Your children,” and ask Him for salvation, He will tell them, “I never knew you” (Mt 7:21–23). It’s because they do not have God’s flesh and blood in them.


The Church of God where God the Mother dwells


As God’s heirs, we have to share in Christ’s sufferings in order that we may also share in His glory. Our Father and Mother have come to this earth to find Their lost children. So, we who have been called earlier should put our minds together to find our lost brothers and sisters, shouldn’t we? However, we cannot recognize them with our own eyes. That is why God has commanded us to preach the good news of salvation to the ends of the earth—to all seven billion people, without omitting anyone. We must quickly find our lost brothers and sisters, so we can please God.

God has promised to bestow His blessing of eternal life in Zion where the Passover, the feast of life, is celebrated (Ps 133:1–3; Isa 33:20). The Bible has prophesied that God the Father and God the Mother will call Their children to Zion where They bestow salvation.

Rev 22:17 The Spirit and the bride 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.

According to the Trinity, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are one and the same. So, the Holy Spirit is God the Father. This in turn shows that the Bride of God the Father refers to God the Mother. God the Father and God the Mother shout together, “Come! Whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of life.”

To meet the Spirit and the Bride, we must go to the church that believes in God the Father and God the Mother. According to Bible prophecy, God the Father and God the Mother dwell in the church where salvation is guaranteed and the ceremony to inherit God’s flesh and blood through the Passover is also held. It is the Church of God that fulfills all the prophecies of the Bible.

Those who neglect God’s command not to add to or take away from His word and mislead people by saying there is only one God—the Father, excluding God the Mother, can never enter the kingdom of heaven. No one can receive eternal life and have the right to go back to the kingdom of heaven except through Heavenly Mother. I would like to ask all of you to have faith in God the Mother as well as God the Father according to the teachings of the Bible, believing that every prophecy in the Bible will surely be fulfilled, and preach the good news of salvation to all seven billion people, so you can all be worthy enough to enter the eternal kingdom of heaven.
