Christ Ahnsahnghong cannot be Christ because He died

Man is confused regarding questions about Christ Ahnsahnghong

According to Romans 6:9 Christ Ahnsahnghong is not Christ

One of the favorite verses in the Bible of those who speak against the World Mission Society Church of God and Christ Ahnsahnghong is Romans chapter 6 verse 9.

Romans 6:9 – For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him.

They quote this verse and say: “The Bible says that Jesus cannot die again after His death on the cross. But Christ Ahnsahnghong died so He cannot be Christ.”

I see It looks like they have a point … hmmmmm…. Not really!

According to Isaiah 43:11 Jesus is a false prophet

2,000 years ago when God came in the flesh for the first time, the only Scriptures that existed were the scriptures of the Old Testament – from Genesis to Malachi — and in those scriptures, you could find the following verse in the Book of Isaiah:

Isaiah 43:11 – I, even I, am Jehovah; and besides me there is no savior. – ASV—

Using this verse alone, many people could have easily rejected Jesus as the Savior, solely on the basis of that one verse. They could have easily said: “Since it is written in Isaiah 43:11 that there is no other Savior except God Jehovah, then Jesus of Nazareth is a false Messiah.”

But thankfully the Bible is not just one verse. If we analyze many other prophecies in other passages of the Old Testament, and their fulfillment in Jesus Christ, we can realize that Jesus is the Messiah and He doesn’t contradict Isaiah 43:11. The reason why proclaiming Jesus as the savior does not contradict Isaiah 43:11 is that the book of Isaiah was written before Jesus was born, and of course, at that time, the only Savior was Jehovah God, so it is quite natural that Isaiah 43:11 is written in that way.

It is the same way with Romans 6:9 and Christ Ahnsahnghong.

Romans 6:9 does not deny Christ Ahnsahnghong as the Savior

Then what is the correct meaning of Romans 6:9? This verse does not mean that Jesus cannot die again regardless of the situation. If we examine the contents from the beginning of the chapter, we can understand what the verse is talking about.

Romans 6:3-4 – Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.

As we can see, the verse is making a comparison of the life that Jesus lived – His death and resurrection—and how we who participate in His life will receive the same benefits. Let’s continue:

Romans 6:5-9If we have been united with him like this in his death, we will certainly also be united with him in his resurrection… Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him. For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him.

What Apostle Paul is trying to explain in chapter 6 of the book of Romans is that since Jesus was resurrected, He will not die again. In other words, Jesus who was resurrected from the dead will live eternally. This was written to let us understand that Jesus showed His resurrection beforehand to demonstrate to us how we will be resurrected.

Everything Christ did was an example of what will happen to those who follow in His footsteps

 Everything Jesus Christ did was an example for us who follow in His footsteps. (1 Peter 2:21)

• We receive baptism as Christians because Jesus was baptized. (Luke 3:21)

• We keep the Sabbath Day because Jesus kept it. (Luke 4:16)

• We keep the Passover of the New Covenant because Jesus kept it. (Luke 22:13-15)

• We preach the gospel because Jesus preached it. (Luke 4:43)

Therefore, if we follow faithfully in the example of Christ, we have the hope to be resurrected and will not die again.

When we examine all the verses in the Bible, which testify to our resurrection, consistently, we can see that all the verses place emphasis on the fact that we will not die again.

Luke 20:35-36 – “But those who are considered worthy of taking part in that age and in the resurrection from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage, and they can no longer die; for they are like the angels. They are God’s children, since they are children of the resurrection.”

1 Corinthians 15:54 – When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”

The Bible also testifies that the kingdom of heaven where we will go after we are resurrected is a place without death!

Revelation 21:4 – “He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”

This is something Apostle Paul understood and was trying to explain to the Romans in his letter. Christ did not just die, but He was resurrected and lives eternally in Heaven. For this reason, we can have faith that if we follow His example, we too will be resurrected and live eternally in heaven.

Romans 6:5 – If we have been united with him like this in his death, we will certainly also be united with him in his resurrection.

Therefore, isn’t it quite natural to say that Jesus, who resurrected, cannot die again and that death can no longer rule over Him?

So Romans 6:9 testifies to the state of resurrection and has nothing to do with either Jesus’ second coming in the flesh or His death.

What happens if Jesus, who stayed in an immortal spiritual body, came again in the flesh?

Since He came in the flesh, not in the resurrected spiritual body, He can die as much as He wants to and it would not violate Romans 6:9 at all.

Therefore, it is wrong to deny the Second Coming Jesus by distorting the meaning of the words in Romans 6:9.

Christ does everything according to prophecy

Some skeptics might say: “Well, Jesus resurrected after His crucifixion and that is why we believe that He is the Savior. However Christ Ahnsahnghong did not resurrect after His death. Therefore, He is not the Savior.”

For those who think like this, let me clarify one thing: The only reason the resurrection of Jesus took place was to fulfill  Bible prophecy:

1 Corinthians 15:3-4 – For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, and that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures…

Jesus resurrected according to the Scriptures. With this in mind:

Can you show one verse in the Bible where it says that Second Coming Christ has to resurrect? There isn’t.

However, there are many prophecies that do show that Second Coming Christ has to pass away, which you can learn at your nearest World Mission Society Church of God.

    So to say that Christ Ahnsahnghong is not second coming Christ because of Rom. 6:9, is to say that Jesus isn’t the Christ because of Isa. 7:14. According to that verse, it says the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Emmanuel. But that’s not Jesus name. So does that mean he is not the Christ because his name wasn’t Emmanuel? Certainly not. This is why Jesus said “You diligently study the ‘Scriptures’ plural not ‘Scripture’ singular (John 5:39) Emmanuel means “God is with us”. Jesus came and gave us forgiveness of sins and eternal life which only God can do, which makes him God. So yes God was with us when Jesus Christ came 2000yrs ago.
    But how scary would it have been if the people of God reject Jesus if they only tried to understand or misunderstood him through just one verse? So how scary will it be if we reject second coming Christ through the misunderstanding of one verse? This is why we have to study the scriptures, plural, diligently.

    In studying the bible, we come to realize the sure fire way to recognize the Savior. The savior testified in the bible will always fulfill the prophecies concerning himself. Unless we study all the related verses of a prophecy we may end up with a skewed interpretation of what is actually meant.

    Christ Ahnsahnghong fulfilled all the prophecies of the bible concerning himself, therefore when we study the prophecies about him we will surely see that he is God. As the saying goes, “The proof is in the pudding.” Come and do a bible study and see the prophecies for yourself.

  3. Jennyfer

    Father Christ Ahnsahnghong fulfilled prophecy even in his death, everything that He did not only on his first coming but also in his second coming was according to prophecies from the bible, the way we can know the true second coming of Christ is not only because of his teachings in accordance with the truth of the bible which He will restore, but He will also fulfill every prophecy in the scriptures. Then what speaks more than words are actions even if He dies physically His spirit will never die because He is God who has given us eternal life. John 6:63 The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you—they are full of the Spirit and life. Then even if he didn’t say “I am God” or “I am second coming Christ” even if He died all of it was according to prophecy then how much clearly is that He is not only second coming Christ, but God who came in the flesh to give us life; eternal life. Truly this is love and grace from God to come to this earth not only once but twice only to save us and give us the hope to Enter kingdom of heaven.

    the people that speak against the church of God and say that father Ahnsahnghong is not Christ, is because they do not understand the scriptures Father said 2000 years ago “Matthew 22:29 you are in error because you don’t not know the scriptures or the power of God” what does Hebrew 9:28 say so “Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people he will appear a second time not bear sin but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.” the bible says that second coming Christ will bring salvation then what is salvation for people who are destined to die? eternal life through what feast we can receive eternal life “THE PASSOVER” “Luke 22:20 in the same way after the supper he took the cup saying this cup is the new covenant in my blood which is poured out for you.” then what is covenant? it a promise but when a Father promises his/her an inheritance does the promise take effect when the father is dead or while he is alive? clearly, after the Father passes away. Father Ahnsahnhong who is second coming Christ brought the Passover of the new covenant as written in the bible for it to have any effect Father Ahnsahnghong must die as it is written in
    Hebrew 9:15-18 for this reason Christ is the mediator of a new covenant that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance now that he has died as a ransom to set them free from the sins committed under the first covenant in the case of a will it is necessary to prove death of the one who made it because a will is in force only when somebody has died; it never takes effect while the one who made it is living. this is why even the first covenant was not pit in effect without blood.

    This article hit every nail right on the head. Thank God the bible is not just one verse! People who hold on to just one verse, hold so tightly because they don’t want to be wrong or go outside of tradition and unfortunately they cannot see that the sole reason Christ Ahnsahnghong died was for our salvation. If He did not die then we cannot go to heaven. Again he did it to fulfill prophecy. If he didn’t come to fulfill prophecy then, there would be no sense in believing in Jesus because Jesus left some prophecies unfinished. Yet the One who completed them is Second Coming Jesus who is Christ Ahnsahnghong. Those who distort the words of the Bible have no understanding of the Bible which is the only source that can lead us to the One who gives us salvation. Then why waste your time listening to such people? Why not learn DIRECTLY from the Bible at your local WMSCOG? 🙂

    In the last days the Bible prophesied that the King of Zion which is Christ will perish. There is so many testimony that when Father comes a second time he has to die. Rom 6:9 is referring to that time when Jesus resurrected, of course he won’t die again at his 1st coming.

    Micah 4:1= In the “last days” the mountain of the Lord’s temple will be established……

    Micah 4:9= Why do you now cry aloud, have you no king? Has your ruler perished, that pain seizes you like that of a woman in labor?

    if you come to study the Bible we can show so many prophecies about 2nd coming Christ 🙂

  7. Davina

    In Hebrews 9:28 it says, “so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.” Why was Christ crucified and why did He have to die 2000 years ago? it says in Hebrews 9:15 “…..-now that he has died as a ransom to set them free from the sins committed under the first covenant.” Jesus Christ died for our spiritual sin so we don’t have too..that doesn’t mean when He comes a second time he wont physically die….it means he will not have to die for our sins again…his purpose at his second coming is to bring salvation….because he has to fulfill more prophecies of King David, He had to die on 1985 to prove He is Second coming Christ….come to see the prophecies at the World Mission Society Church of God!

    The bible says that we have to be careful on what we say, Matthew 12:36-37 NCV, Knowing this people should be careful om what they say, the evidence in the bible is so clear, Jesus Christ did resurrect according to the scriptures, but the same scriptures say that he will come again with a new name rev 3:11-12 also there are so many prophecies that Christ Ahnsahnghong has fulfilled including the prophetical king David!there are no prophecies that say that he has to resurrect again, I encourage all those who are still studying to continue to study, do not listen to those who don’t know the scriptures, remember the bible says that The Holy spirit will guide you into all truth! John 16:12-15 Christ Ahnsahnghong restored all the truth that was abolished for such of long time, he is the one who guided us into all truth! for those who say otherwise please watch what you say and humble yourselves and study, because remember those who blaspheme against The Holy Spirit will not be forgiven. Matthew 12:31-32 NLT, I want to thank the one who posted this article it really helps out a lot those who are still studying.

    It is impossible to try to understand a jigsaw puzzle just by looking at one single piece. This is exactly what those who speak bad against Christ Ahnsahnghong do. They take one single verse out of the entire bible and force an interpretation. Just one verse does not testify about Christ, but the bible in its entirety (John 5:39). In order to understand Christ you must look at the entire bible and not just one verse. Christ Jesus came to fulfill prophecy 2000 years ago and to bring us salvation by giving up his life(Hebrews 2:14). Even though he was crucified there were those who slandered and in other words said — “If he is God how can he die and allow himself be crucified” (Matthew 27:32-44). They hurled these insults because they lacked understand and did not see Gods plan as a whole but just focused on that one part. Sadly enough, it is he same nowadays. Those who lack understanding and never studied the prophesies in the bible speak bad against Christ Ahnsahnghong not seeing the entire picture. Christ Ahnsahnghong did die and ascended to heaven, but even that occurred to fulfill the prophesies in the bible. If you come to study the bible then you will know Christ Ahnsahnghong is God.

    Please study the prophesies in the bible in order to get correct understanding.

    It’s always amazing to see every argument against Father and Mother proven wrong. No matter what he argument, we continuously see that They are true God Almighty. Although this was/is a stumbling block for some, it is explained and clarified so perfectly. Thanks to God Elohim for truly opening up our eyes! Hopefully many will finally realize the truth of God Elohim.

  11. MYoung

    There have been many misinterpretations of the verse Romans 6:9, however when we come to understand its true meaning, we can understand Second Coming Christ, and prove that his death does not violate the verse nor does it disprove Him.
    Again, Romans 6:9 is about Jesus’ resurrected body and the hope that we have in the resurrection by following the examples of Christ.

    It is also written:
    Hebrews 2:14 (NLT)
    Because God’s children are human beings—made of flesh and blood—the Son also became flesh and blood. For only as a human being could he die, and only by dying could he break the power of the devil, who had the power of death.

    Therefore we can understand further, that Christ who shared in our humanity, had to die physically by coming in the flesh, to fulfill the prophecies in the bible concerning that event. His death took away our sins, in which those who follow Christ can also have hope for eternal life, just as He does.
    Then in the case of Second Coming Christ, He did not come in the resurrected body to be crucified again (Hebrew 9:28), but instead He came to bring salvation-the same salvation that was established 2000 years ago through the Passover. In other words, He came in a way that he shared in our humanity (flesh) so that we may receive Him, to gain salvation.

    Jesus prophesied His death and foretold other events that needed to occur at His first coming; Second Coming Christ is also prophesied to appear at a later time, and He consistently needed to fulfill prophecies-especially the prophecy of King David. Therefore Christ Ahnsahnghong’s life and death was to fulfill what was written concerning the scriptures. We must have spiritual eyes to see spiritual things, and not stumble that Christ came a second time in the flesh and passed away. Finally, we can conclude that if Christ Ahnsahnghong did not physically die, He would not be the One who came according to scriptural prophecy. Because of His death, we can confidently say, that he is surely the second Coming Christ who perfectly fulfilled biblical prophecy.

  12. Salome

    The important thing is that Christ came a second time to save us. For so many years the world have been under deep darkness since all the truth of the bible was abolished during dark ages and without this truth no soul can go back to heaven nor have any hope for salvation. Before Christ Ahnsahnghong came no one preached about the Passover, no one did anything of what Jesus commanded us to do 2000 years ago. Since the coming of Ahnsahnghong and His diligent efforts of preaching even under harsh circumstances that no one has even intended to do before I can come to appreciate His great love for us. Come to the Church of God World Mission Society and study one by one of all the truth about Ahnsahnghong and He indeed did everything as the Bible testify. If He died, is also for our salvation, because without Him dying we could have never come to know about the most precious gift hidden in the Bible for us, this amazing gift is that Father Christ Ahnsahnghong revealed to us about the existence of Heavenly Mother the true cure for our soul.

    Sometimes truth is not what we expect. Many people have their own thought of how God will come and what God will do. God’s plan is in the Bible. God did this to let us know how to recognize him. How merciful is God!

    God’s word says he has to fulfill the throne of David. The fulfillment of the throne ended in King David’s death. If Christ came as King David, he has to fulfill everything. 2,000 years ago Jesus did not fulfill it and said he would come a second time. Christ Anhsanhghong has come and fulfilled all the prophecies including King David.

    If we pick and choose what we want to believe and accept from the Bible, we may fail to miss or reject God.

  14. Michelle C

    Through this we can really see that those who speak against Christ AhnSahngHong don’t have any understanding of the bible. 2000 years ago the Pharisees and teachers of the law were looking for false witnesses and twisting Jesus words so people would not believe in him. Mat 26:59-61. It is the same now, they are taking Paul’s words out of context, without understanding its real meaning. We should give thanks to God that even tho he didn’t have to come into this earth to die for us….. he came and die for our sins and show us what we are going to go through when we are one in him. Instead of trying to analyze his word and missing the great blessing he wants to give us. Eternal Life!

    Without good understanding of things it seems like these people actually know what they are talking about. But actually, out of so many other prophecies in the Bible, why do they focus only on small things? Actually Christ Ahnsahnghong is the only one that brought the understanding of what the Passover really is. He is the only one that actually brought back the truth of the Sabbath as well among many many other things.

    If they really want to get to know the truth, why don’t they bring up all of their questions to one of the Church Of God local branches? I mean, even in society, when one has a question about a certain situation, you don’t make a blog or write an article without the correct understanding of something, if you do that is called gossip. Likewise to me it seems like the arguments against the World Mission Society Church of God are based on a big lack of knowledge thus making their argument groundless and implausible.
