[WMSCOG] Dilemma: Fatal Collision Between Ahn Sahng-hong's Second Coming and Passover Doctrine

— "If the Second Coming Jesus has arrived, why do you still keep the Passover?" BVCAP v2.0 Neutral Audit Report —

STATUS: Verification Complete | VERDICT: ❌ CONTRADICTION (Actual Contradiction Confirmed - Internal Collapse of WMSCOG Doctrine) Collision Type: C-08 (Theological Inquiry), C-09 (Coordinate/Typological Interpretation) Applied Analysis Tools: TYPE-L (Logical Structure), TYPE-F (Category/Contradiction Error), TYPE-W (Original Language Analysis), TYPE-H (Historical Background) Audit Request Context: Full scriptural consistency verification requested for doctrines proposed by the "World Mission Society Church of God" (WMSCOG), including Ahn Sahng-hong's second coming, the restoration of the Passover, and the white stone and new name.

1. Establishing the Point of Collision (PHASE 1: Verse Dissection)

The doctrines presented by WMSCOG may seem plausible on the surface, but when cross-referenced with the original biblical text and logical structures, they inherently self-contradict. This audit comprehensively verifies the 6 core issues presented by the requester.

2. First Court: The Expiration Date of the Lord's Supper (The Most Fatal Self-Contradiction)

💡 Modern Analogy

[The Wartime Emergency Communication Network Analogy] A commander leaving for a mission ordered his subordinates, "Fire this flare every night until I come back." If the commander has safely returned, there is no longer a need to fire the flare. If the commander is right in front of them and they continue to fire the flare every night, it is a farce that self-proves "the commander has not yet arrived."

Textual Analysis (Applying TYPE-L, TYPE-F)

[1 Corinthians 11:26] "For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come."

• IF Ahn Sahng-hong is the 'Second Coming Jesus' as WMSCOG claims (if he has already come) → THEN according to the biblical command, the Passover bread and wine ritual must immediately cease.
• IF they are still performing the annual Passover bread and wine ritual to this day → THEN they themselves are admitting that the Second Coming Jesus has not yet arrived.
• Verdict: Claiming that the Second Coming Jesus has arrived while simultaneously keeping the Passover is a Logical Impossibility. One of the two must be false. (A typical error of E-05 Circular Reasoning and E-13 Moving the Goalposts)

3. Second Court: Physical Historical Evidence of the Passover (Unleavened Bread and Transparent Diluted Wine)

For WMSCOG to claim they 'identically' restored and perform the Passover as Jesus did 2,000 years ago, it must perfectly match the actual practices in Israel at that time. However, their ritual is completely detached from the historical and symbolic context of the biblical era.

1. Unleavened Bread and Diluted Wine Mixed with Water (Historical Background) On the Passover table during Jesus' time, unfermented unleavened bread was served, and the wine, due to water quality issues of the time, was a nearly transparent diluted beverage heavily mixed with water (a ratio of 3~4 parts water to 1 part wine). If they wish to act 'identically' to what Jesus did, they must drink a transparent grape beverage diluted with water, just like the Israelite custom, not modern dark red wine. When the Apostle Paul told Timothy to "use a little wine for thy stomach's sake" (1 Tim 5:23), it was for this diluted medical/sterilization purpose.

2. Red Wine = The Fierce Wrath of God (TYPE-T Symbol Analysis) In the Bible, 'undiluted (unmixed) thick red wine' symbolizes not the covenant of life, but God's dreadful judgment and wrath.

   • [Proverbs 23:31] "Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, when it giveth his colour in the cup..."
   • [Revelation 14:10] "The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation..."
   • [Revelation 17:6] "And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus..."
   • Verdict: In the Bible, those who drink 'unmixed red wine' are not saved people, but those who suffer judgment and torment. The act of drinking blood-red liquor is a severe misuse that directly contradicts the biblical symbolic system.

4. Third Court: The Substance of "His Own Blood" in Acts 20:28

[Acts 20:28] "...to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood."

• Question: Is this blood the Passover wine, or the actual literal blood on Calvary?
• Verification: The Passover bread and cup are merely a "Shadow" to "remembrance" Jesus, not a physical "Substance" that washes away sins. According to Hebrews 9:22 ("without shedding of blood is no remission"), what purchased the church is the 'Literal Blood' of the great atonement shed on the cross.
• Verdict: The claim that the church is built and salvation is obtained simply through the ritual (act) of drinking Passover wine is a terrible Category Error (TYPE-C) that degrades the great atonement of the cross into a mere human ritual.

5. Fourth Court: White Stone, New Name, and Hidden Manna (Revelation 2:17)

• WMSCOG Logic: White stone = Jesus, New name = Ahn Sahng-hong, Hidden manna = Passover ritual. Therefore, Ahn Sahng-hong brings the Passover.
• Textual Cross-Verification (TYPE-W, TYPE-L): [Revelation 2:17] "To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it."
• Verdict: The subject receiving this reward (white stone and new name) is not the Second Coming Lord himself, but the 'overcomer (victorious saints)' in the spiritual battle against the beast. Force-fitting the individual glorious reward Jesus gives to the saints as the identification of 'Second Coming Lord Ahn Sahng-hong' is typical Textual Hijacking that completely reverses the subject and object, and a contextual fraud (E-01 Strawman Fallacy).

6. Fifth Court: The Deceptive Combination of the Historical Dark Age Theory and the Fig Tree Prophecy

1. Abolition of the Passover and the Dark Age Theory: The claim that Constantine (Council of Nicaea, AD 325) abolished the Passover, bringing about a 2,000-year dark age, is an historical exaggeration. The council unified the 'date calculation method' for keeping the Passover (Easter), it did not eradicate the Lord's Supper itself from the earth. Furthermore, there is not a single line of prophecy in the Bible stating that a '2,000-year dark age where people cannot be saved due to not keeping the Passover' would come.
2. Parable of the Fig Tree (Prophecy of Israel's Restoration): Israel's independence in 1948 and the history of the Holocaust are indeed fulfillments of the Bible. However, WMSCOG deceptively ties this undeniable historical fact (fulfillment of the fig tree prophecy) with the appearance of Ahn Sahng-hong. This is a 'Bandwagon Effect' deceptive tactic, mixing counterfeit bills amidst real ones to make them all look authentic. Israel's independence has absolutely nothing to do with Ahn Sahng-hong.

7. Contextual Visualization Tool: The Self-Contradictory Structure of WMSCOG Doctrine (RTM)

8. Final Verdict

❌ CONTRADICTION (Actual Contradiction Confirmed - Logical Collapse of the Entire Doctrine)

Reason for Verdict: The most fatal point of impact is the self-contradiction of 1 Corinthians 11:26. The claim that 'the Second Coming Lord has already come' and the act of 'still keeping the Passover which should only be done until he comes' perfectly collide and mutually destroy each other. Furthermore, the red wine drunk as the cup of salvation symbolizes the 'cup of God's wrath' in the Bible, completely overturning the soteriological symbolic system. Core Counter-Argument Logic: "If Ahn Sahng-hong is the Second Coming Jesus, why do you still perform the Lord's Supper (Passover) every year as if Jesus hasn't come yet?" Academic Consensus Level: 🟢 Mainstream Consensus (Perfect alignment of orthodox biblical studies, history, and logic)

💬 [Appendix] Descriptive Summary for Comments/Refutations (For Copy-Paste)

I fully understand you being confused about the World Mission Society Church of God (WMSCOG) doctrines your friend mentioned. While they may look plausible on the surface, a careful examination of the Bible reveals that their claims create serious self-contradictions. Please be sure to check the following facts:

1. If Ahn Sahng-hong is the Second Coming Jesus, why keep the Passover? Looking at 1 Corinthians 11:26, it specifies to remember the Lord's death "till he come" through the Lord's Supper (Passover bread and wine). If the Second Coming Jesus has already come as they claim, the Lord's Supper must immediately cease. Believing in the Second Coming Jesus while still keeping the Passover is ironically a farce that self-proves 'Jesus has not yet arrived.'

2. Thick red wine is a symbol of 'wrath', not 'salvation'. To identically keep the Passover that Jesus performed, one must eat 'unleavened bread' and drink a 'nearly transparent pale-colored wine' made by mixing it with 3~4 parts water. At that time, Israel drank wine diluted this way due to water quality issues. Conversely, 'undiluted thick red wine' in the Bible symbolizes not the covenant of salvation, but 'God's fierce wrath and judgment' (Proverbs 23:31, Revelation 14:10). For WMSCOG to drink blood-colored thick red liquor (or juice) calling it the cup of salvation is historically inaccurate to biblical times and an error that reverses its symbolism. Paul telling Timothy to use a little wine for his stomach condition was purely for 'medical purposes', not a salvation ritual (1 Tim 5:23).

3. The church God purchased with 'His own blood' (Acts 20:28) God purchasing the church with His blood does not mean the 'wine' drunk during the Passover ritual. It means the 'Literal Blood' Jesus directly shed on the cross (Hebrews 9:22 without shedding of blood is no remission). Attempting to replace the great merit of the cross's atonement with a mere human religious ritual of Passover wine shakes the very foundation of Christianity.

4. White stone and new name (Revelation 2:17) The person who receives the white stone and new name (hidden manna) in Revelation 2:17 is not the Second Coming Jesus himself, but the 'overcomer (saints)' in the good fight of faith. Hijacking the glorious reward Jesus gives to the saints and force-fitting it as 'the name of Ahn Sahng-hong' is completely reversing the subject of the Bible.

5. The deceptive combination of the Dark Age and the Parable of the Fig Tree Israel's independence in 1948 (the parable of the fig tree) is indeed an objective historical fulfillment of the Bible. However, cults often deceptively mix their false doctrines (Ahn Sahng-hong's second coming theory) among such undeniable historical facts to deceive people into thinking all claims are true. Israel's independence has absolutely no connection to any specific individual. Also, the claim that 'Constantine abolished the Passover, bringing about a 2,000-year dark age' is a fabricated story found nowhere in the Bible.

In conclusion, no matter how meticulously constructed a doctrine may seem, their entire logic collapses with just a single Bible verse: "till he come" (1 Cor 11:26). Do not be confused, and please focus only on the biblical text itself, not the words of men!
