Bible Study · Galatians Galatians 3:27 — The True Meaning of “Putting On Christ”: The Baptism Received in Union with Christ A Preview of Pastor Paul C. Jong’s New Book on Galatians N The New Life Mission 7 min read In chapter 3, verse 27, the Apostle Paul gives the core answer: “For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.” Then, does the phrase “those who were baptized into Christ” here simply refer to a person who has received a ceremonial water baptism? No. The meaning carried by the original Greek of this word is closer to “the one who has entered into the very baptism that Christ received.” That is, it refers to the one who is spiritually united with the event in which Jesus, by receiving the baptism of the laying on of hands from John the Baptist in the Jordan River, took upon Himself all the sins of humanity once and for all — the ...

Today Is the Time for You to Be Saved from Your Sins. Will You Accept God’s Invitation? – 2 Corinthians

Image
Today Is the Time for You to Be Saved from Your Sins. Will You Accept God’s Invitation? Just as a drowning man is pulled out of the stormy sea, God delivers us from our sins through the baptism Jesus received from John the Baptist and His blood on the Cross. Now is the day of salvation. “The grace of God” refers to the grace of salvation from sin accomplished through Jesus Christ. When seen from the perspective of the gospel of the water and the Spirit, this grace of salvation is revealed very clearly. God the Father sent Jesus Christ to this earth to solve the problem of humanity’s sins. Jesus came to this earth as the Savior of sinners and received the sins of the world passed onto His own body by being baptized by John the Baptist. Therefore, Jesus, bearing the sins of the world on His own body, was crucified, shed His precious blood, and received the judgment of sin in our place. And G...

Why Today's Church Is in Confusion — 1 Corinthians Explained Through the Gospel of the Water and the Spirit

Image
The Bible study book “ 1 Corinthians Seen from the Perspective of the Gospel of the Water and the Spirit ” by Rev. Paul C. Jong, a servant of God from The New Life Mission, is a book explained so that we may study in detail, through the First Epistle to the Corinthians — which the Apostle Paul recorded by receiving the work of the Holy Spirit — the answer to the question “On what must God’s Church stand?” addressed to today’s Church which is in the midst of confusion. Paul diagnoses all the problems of the Corinthian church — division, moral failure, the abuse of spiritual gifts, and the denial of the resurrection from the dead — within the very same “gospel of the water and the Spirit.” This is because the center of God’s Church had shifted to man, philosophy, doctrine, or other worldly religious systems. First Corinthians shows that many problems are resolved when God’s Church builds our faith not upon the wisdom of man, but upon the baptism, upon the judgment of the Cross, and upo...

What Does It Really Mean to 'Eat Jesus' Flesh and Drink His Blood'? (John 6) [Sunday Sermon]

Image
The Faith We Must Truly Hold On To in the Age of Artificial Intelligence Today’s blog content is a summary of the Sunday sermon by Rev. Paul C. Jong of The New Life Mission. -------- We are now living in a time when we must prepare for the last days by faith. When artificial intelligence develops alongside quantum computers, the world will change tremendously. It seems that whoever rules over artificial intelligence will rule over people, and will integrate every part of human thought, religion, and so on. Therefore, we must live in the present knowing that this is the kind of world we are in. When the gospel of the water and the Spirit has been preached throughout this world, people will be divided into believers and unbelievers, and the Lord will come. Now is the time when the gospel is being spread, and we must live preparing for these last days by faith. <John 6:53–59> “Then Jesus said to them, ‘Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son o...

The Core Message of Acts — The Gospel the Early Church Believed

Image
 Rev. Paul C. Jong’s Bible Study on Acts Today’s content is about the Bible study book titled “Acts of the Apostles Seen from the Perspective of the Gospel of the Water and the Spirit” by Rev. Paul C. Jong, a servant of God from The New Life Mission. The Acts of the Apostles is a historical book recorded by Luke after the four Gospels in the New Testament, documenting how the gospel that the apostles believed was spread throughout the entire world through the apostles and saints of the early Church, from after the ascension of Jesus Christ. As such, the core of the Acts of the Apostles is not only to testify to the work of the Holy Spirit, but its central message is how the already completed gospel of the water and the Spirit was testified to the entire world. The apostles of the early Church preached the already completed salvation through the gospel of the water and the Spirit that Jesus Christ had already accomplished — that is, Jesus received baptism to take upo...
