My group and I used to be in the cult in Alhambra, CA
When: I was in the Shincheonji cult back in April 2023.
How long: I was there 4 months
Eventually through the grace of God we found out this was not a bible study to learn the word of God but instead was an indoctrination and a brainwashing to learn about the new heaven new earth cult.
My name is Jonathan and I want to let you know, person reading this, it is now July 3, 2026 and I along with the group of people that were in this cult previously, have started a bible study, an actual bible study and you are welcomed.
Where: East Los Angeles, City Terrace.
Message me for details.
Every Friday @ 7:30PM
We have been going strong since the January of this year 2026
I know full well Shincheonji members resort to snake like tactics including lying, deceiving, manipulation.
I am also aware they are wolves in sheep's clothing who infiltrate other churches with the goal of snatching away sheep.
Nevertheless, we trust God and have put this bible study in his hands and so we have begun this bible study with our experience in mind that the enemy is working hard and us true believers in Jesus Christ must also do the same. There is a reason that in the word it is written to put on the whole armor of God because everyday we step into the battlefield. May this post find its way to you and I pray to my God through our Lord Jesus Christ that he protects you and your family as well. All glory to God forever. Amen.
Also, I have met Chris Vishoot through video and I am in his group chat for Bible Vaccine for credibility.
I am writing this after recent eventsof Lee Man Hee being arrested for election interference:
South Korean authorities arrested 95-year-old Lee Man-hee, founder of the Shincheonji Church of Jesus, on June 24, 2026, over allegations of election interference. The Seoul Central District Court issued the warrant citing risks of evidence destruction. [1, 2, 3]
Prosecutors allege Lee orchestrated a scheme to influence the country's presidential and legislative primaries by coercing over 50,000 church followers into joining the conservative People Power Party (PPP) between 2021 and 2024. Investigators suspect this mass political mobilization was an attempt to secure favorable treatment and facility permits for the church. [1, 2]
The Shincheonji Church has publicly denied the charges and expressed "deep regret" over the arrest, voicing concerns that the detention could threaten the advanced age and health of Lee. [1, 2]
