u/Well-IguessIamHere

I want to leave WMSCOG, but I’m not sure how to.

I was approached on my college campus in late February, and started attending their Bible studies before being baptized in late April. I was amazed by their knowledge of the Bible and impressed by how they knew where exactly each Bible verse was for their studies. In the past, I’ve attended other churches where their services didn’t involve the Bible as deeply, and I thought I had found the true church with how frequently they referred to the Bible.

As a college student actively searching for Christian community and the true way to salvation, I thought that God had finally brought me to the community I had been praying for so long, and I thought that I was receiving all of the answers I had been looking for.

Despite their advice to not do so, I did some outside research on the WMSCOG, and I found controversial things in the history of the church and how they manage the church (i.e. Ahn Sahng Hong speaking against the idea of god the mother, point systems for members to “receive salvation”).

At this point, I’ve attended about 20 studies in total. All of them were in the Bible or included “evidence books” that had historical references to strengthen the Bible studies. I made the mistake of trusting the words of these people because it looked like they were always referring to biblical or historical facts. But after doing research on my own, I don’t know what to believe anymore. All I know is that this is a false church giving false teachings.

About 1.5 weeks ago, I flew home for the summer, so I’m not near the church that first reached out to me. However, the people there have my contact information, and a closer WMSCOG location also has my contact information. I was supposed to receive a veil and new song book this past Friday, but I cancelled saying something had come up. Tonight, I’m supposed to FaceTime the people who first reached out to me to catch up.

I don’t want to be rude and cut them off, but it feels like I might need to do that. Also, I feel that it would be wrong to leave that church without trying to reveal to them their wrong teachings, but I simply don’t know enough to put together all the evidence. What do I do now?
