Chicago, Illinois Oct 9, 2024 (Issuewire.com) - On October 5th, the "2024 Shincheonji Great Bible Crusade" took place in Seouls Yeongdeungpo district, attracting 14,000 attendees, including over 400 pastors. The assembly, hosted by the Shincheonji Church of Jesus (led by General Chairman Man Hee Lee), filled multiple floors of the Yeongdeungpo Church, with thousands more watching online. Particularly noteworthy was the presence of more than 4,000 young adults, a significant turnout amidst a global trend of declining religious engagement among younger generations.
Many of the young attendees were drawn to the assembly through promotional activities held in bustling Seoul areas like Gangnam and Hongdae. Curious about the vibrant energy of Shincheonjis members, some had initially expressed skepticism but later shared how their misconceptions were dispelled after witnessing the gathering and teachings. Several pastors in attendance also expressed admiration for the strong youth participation, with one pastor noting, There is something here that should be seen and understood by all.
General Chairman Man Hee Lee's lecture emphasized the importance of understanding the prophecy and reality of the Book of Revelation. He encouraged pastors and leaders to take the initiative in teaching the true meaning of these biblical prophecies, stating, "If people dont believe, its because they dont understand. Its our responsibility to provide the right spiritual food." His message resonated deeply with attendees, sparking discussion and applause throughout the event.
The assembly was also streamed live on Shincheonji's official YouTube channel, where 73,000 viewers tuned in, showcasing the widespread interest in the event. The event followed another large-scale gathering in Nowon, Seoul, on October 2nd, further demonstrating the ongoing wave of evangelism sweeping the country. Shincheonji Church of Jesus noted that similar assemblies held recently have consistently attracted tens of thousands of participants, both in-person and online.
With nearly 40% of Shincheonji's members being young adults, the church is defying the global trend of declining religious engagement among younger generations. This surge in interest, particularly among youth, highlights the churchs ability to engage and inspire people from all walks of life, providing the resources for spiritual growth.
