Notably, 250 pastors from different denominations attended in person, adding significance to the event. Chairman Lee began his lecture by addressing the pastors, encouraging them to ask questions if they found any errors in his teachings.

Chairman Lee explained how the Book of Revelation is being fulfilled today, just as Jesus fulfilled the prophecies of the Old Testament. He emphasized that attendees should confirm whether they are living in accordance with the Bible and being recreated as the Bible describes. Chairman Lee reiterated that the contents of Revelation must not be altered and urged attendees to verify Shincheonji’s teachings, promising clarity.

After the lecture, two pastors from other denominations presented Chairman Lee with flowers, thanking him for helping them understand the Book of Revelation. They pledged to learn and share this message.

One pastor from the Jeonbuk region commented, “It was striking how Chairman Lee strongly emphasized not adding to or subtracting from the Book of Revelation, as it is Jesus’ promise. I think it would be good to open our hearts and seriously learn from these teachings.”

A missionary from a nearby area shared, “Since the Ulsan Word Seminar in January, I’ve watched his lectures on YouTube. The teachings are refreshing, almost shocking. I feel like I’ve found a new guide for my missionary work.” Shincheonji’s Thomas tribe members actively promoted the seminar, engaging with citizens directly, and local residents showed great interest, taking photos of the street parade.

Earlier this month, the Thomas tribe held a walking event to promote the seminar at Jeonju Pungnammun Market and Jeonju Hanok Village, continuing their efforts to share the fulfilled reality of the Book of Revelation.

A Shincheonji representative said, “We are grateful to everyone who supported and attended the event over the past 20 days. We will prepare even better opportunities to meet again. Moving forward, Shincheonji Church will continue to practice faith according to the Bible and fully dedicate ourselves to spreading the teachings of the Book of Revelation fulfilled in our time.”
