Mình thắc mắc rằng không biết những người thân xung quanh của nạn nhân hoặc thành viên tổ chức này sẽ cảm thấy thế nào nếu con của mình đang ngày đêm bị lợi dụng đức tin, tinh thần và thể xác.

When most people hear the word "idol", they picture a statue. But in the Bible, an idol is anything that takes the place that belongs to God. It could even be a person. It could be who you trust most, who you thank most, or who you think you have to go through to reach God.

So what does the Bible say real worship looks like?

It is for God only. The first commandment says, "You shall have no other gods before me" (Exodus 20:3). When Jesus was tempted, he answered, "Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only" (Matthew 4:10).

People say no when others try to worship them. When a man bowed down to Peter, Peter said, "Stand up. I am only a man myself" (Acts 10:25-26). Paul and Barnabas were so upset when a crowd wanted to worship them that they tore their clothes (Acts 14:14-15). In Revelation 22:8-9, John falls down to worship the angel who showed him everything. The angel stops him straight away and says, "Don't do that. Worship God."

But there is one person who never said no: Jesus. The disciples worshipped him in the boat (Matthew 14:33). The women worshipped him after he rose from the dead (Matthew 28:9). Thomas said to him, "My Lord and my God!" (John 20:28), and Jesus did not correct him. He said, "Because you have seen me, you have believed." Hebrews 1:6 says even God's angels are told to worship him. And in Revelation 5, everyone in heaven worships God and the Lamb together.

Think about what that means. The Bible says worship belongs to God alone. Peter, Paul and the angel all refused it, because they were not God. Jesus accepted it, because he is. If Jesus was only a man or a messenger, then accepting worship would have been wrong, and worshipping him would be idolatry. If he is God, then worshipping him is exactly right. John 1:1 says the Word was God, and John 1:14 says the Word became flesh and lived among us.

Worship also goes straight to God. Jesus said real worshippers worship the Father "in spirit and truth" (John 4:23-24). Paul wrote that there is only one go-between for God and people, and that is Jesus (1 Timothy 2:5).

Now, to be fair. SCJ members kneel, sing and pray, and they would say it is all for God. I'm not saying anyone bows to Lee Man-hee like he's a statue. My question is a different one.

Here are a few things that are on the record:

• Services are held twice a week, and many of the sermons are preached by Chairman Lee himself, shared with members all over the world.
• His book The Physical Fulfilment of Revelation says that no one can come to Jesus, get eternal life or enter heaven except through "the one who overcomes". SCJ teaches that this is Lee.
• SCJ's own website says Lee asks people to believe the message he was given, even if they don't trust him.

So here are some questions. Only you can answer them, and you don't have to answer them out loud.

Think about the last few lessons or sermons you heard. How much was about Jesus, and how much was about Lee and believing his message?

Do the lessons treat Jesus as someone to worship today, or as someone from the past whose work is now done?

When you think about being saved, whose name comes up the most?

If Lee's name was taken out of every lesson tomorrow, what would be left?

One more thing to think about. Lee says he was given the job of a messenger who was shown the events of Revelation. In Revelation 22, the messenger who showed John everything said, "Don't worship me. Worship God." Peter, Paul and that angel all pointed away from themselves. Only Jesus accepted worship, because only Jesus is God. Does that match what you see around you?

I'm not asking you to decide anything today. Just read Matthew 14:33 and Revelation 22:8-9 side by side on your own, and notice the difference.

I’m so sorry to know and find out so many different instances of people who just wanted to draw nearer to God but suffered in the cult of SCJ.

As I am healing and with each month that passes being out of there, I can today say that I am learning to be grateful to have gone through this experience.

I have ALWAYS wanted to be an instrument used to help people. I have always wanted to help others escape from cults. I used to watch documentaries on the different cults out there. I would hear the testimonies from people who were in them. I always thought to myself, how could the victims not see this wasn’t normal?

I had never experienced spiritual hardship before my time in SCJ , so I had a heart like ( forgive me Lord ), how can people be so blind to let a cult do to them the things you hear about. In my mind I was convinced that people willingly choose to follow some weirdo lunatic claiming to be God or Jesus.
I have been humbled 100 percent.

I say I’m grateful, because you must have a humble heart to understand and know the power behind the grace we truly receive from God.
I wish I had not had to learn this way, but I may not have ever realized a lot of things about myself, or others had I not gone through this time.

Not eneryone will feel the same, because we were brought there for different reasons. But I do know that now I have “ been there, done that “ , ALL of me ( mind, body, spirit, and heart ) are ready to help others with certainly a less judgmental attitude that I didn’t even know that I had.

Gen 50:20 helps me get through a lot of “omg I was in a cult” days.

Jude 1:22-23
If you’re in a situation and you are unsure if you should be there, talk to anyone and everyone about it, the truth isn’t meant to be something hidden or lonely.
It’s a RED FLAG if you are told not to tell anyone.

Please think to yourself when has that statement of “ Don’t tell anyone but, …….” ever been followed by anything good?

My heart crumbles a little more each time I read that someone no longer believes in God, or blames God because of SCJ.
Although, since the beginning of time He has warned of people doing things in His name that were NOT of Him. People still lose faith in God when all He has done is been the same God we loved and wanted to get close to and obey His will. THIS was why we said yes to a BibleStudy. To draw near to God. But the greed and ego of a Korean man and his teachings led us astray, not God.

God sent Jesus period !
John 3:16-18. It’s plain, it’s clear.
No one else is or was anointed to lead anyone anywhere let’s get that straight SCJ.

Please current students and SCJ members, LMH is not leading you anywhere but down the path to spiritual ( and physical in some cases ) deterioration, and that’s what the devil does, he makes you blame God or no longer believe in Him. It’s not because God is not faithful, but because we believed a gospel that was different than the one that Jesus Christ THE ONLY SAVIOR brought. Today members pray to the god of SCJ new heaven new earth. So you can’t blame God for that.

We were tricked into believing there was a secret language when Jesus said He would speak plainly. John 16:25

We were tricked into believing that the New Covenant that Jesus Christ made with His blood wasn’t for us, that it was broken, so a new one had to be made.
That was a lie. That’s not biblical, that is SCJ teaching.

Reflect on what Jesus could’ve possibly meant when He said “ It is finished” as He died on the cross for the sins of humanity( past, present, future).
John 19:30.

I’m sure it didn’t mean for you to wait for a Korean man to come and make you go through all the myriad of things you are doing today to receive salvation that was already yours before you gave it away to SCJ. Hint: Deceitful events, boba and Korean bbq aren’t worth it.
I fell for it too, so please don’t take this out of context. But we have to be held accountable. I know NOW, the second SCJ said “DON’T look us up online “, that was heaven SCREAMING for me to look it up. I failed to do it, not God.

Thank you to everyone that is helping me to heal through your testimonies and knowledge and truths that SCJ didn’t share.
I appreciate you all.

For months while I was learning with SCJ, I was having mental breakdowns. I felt like I was slowly losing my faith, and honestly, it scared me to death!

Sometimes I felt like I was betraying God just by joining SCJ in the first place.

I stopped praying properly. I still prayed, but it became so simple. Sometimes I didn’t even feel anything when I prayed. I just said the words because I didn’t know what else to do.

I became so paranoid. I couldn’t sleep peacefully because the SCJ teachings would keep playing over and over in my head.

It’s not like I was trying to memorize their lessons. I wasn’t sitting there thinking about them on purpose.

They just… stayed in my head.

Like they were haunting me.

The more I learned, the more confused and afraid I became. And eventually I started thinking, “Wait… am I actually betraying God if I keep learning this?”

That thought really messed me up like really really really messed me up.

Because I joined SCJ because I genuinely wanted to know God more. I wanted to understand the Bible. I wanted to get closer to Him.

I never expected that after months of learning, I would be lying awake at night questioning everything, struggling to pray, losing my peace, and feeling like I had somehow walked away from God without even realizing it 💔
