My Explanation

One Saturday morning I decided to visit the Church of God with my friend who had been inviting me for months. Because she was extremely excited to have been going there, I became curious to find out what exactly did they believe in. So one Saturday morning I gave in and went with her to "the Sabbath" service.

So, we went into the sanctuary and began to sing the new songs before the service began. I was singing along until I saw and heard "CHRIST AHNSAHNGHONG".

I think I had tachycardia at that moment... my hands began to sweat and my mind was going crazy. I thought, "oh my goodness , my friend is in a cult! What am I doing here?! Where's the exit?!..." I couldn't run out so I waited to the end, and then I lashed out on my friend. "What is this place? why are you coming here? you're only supposed to worship JESUS Christ!!! Ahhhh!" I was very upset to say the least.

long story short... One of the teachers sat down with me and showed me Hebrews 9:28 saying that Christ has to appear a second time in the flesh before judgement day (you should read this with me). So I was like, "alright, but that doesn't prove to me that Ahnsahnghong is the second coming Christ and that he was supposed change his name."

Eventhough I was so confused and disturbed, I gave the teacher a chance to explain because never had I had someone in any other church be so quick to answer my questions. Then she showed me Rev 3:11-12 where in latter part of verse twelve it says that when He comes he will give us His new name. So i tried to put what she showed me together and it actually made sense. The only time Christ would need a name would be if He comes in the flesh, and that's when she showed me Rev 2:17. The verse says that Christ will give us a white stone with a new name on it... my first question was, "then, what is the white stone?" because it didn't think it meant literally give us an actual stone...
( side note: I thought It was pretty cool how she just put verses together to answer my questions)
... 1Peter 2:4 explains that the stone is Christ --God in the flesh--, so, what Christ meant in Rev 2:17 is that Jesus will come again in the flesh and He has to give us a new name... so, I figured if it's a new name, it has to be anything other than 'Jesus'... so, that was my first experience in the Church of God. It was a bumpy ride, but I guess if you just believe what the Bible says then your questions will be answered thru the Bible, if you doubt the Word of God then you'll always find yourself questioning.
Well, I'll let you know the update on my experience a little later... See ya soon.

To my surprise, it's a New Name

"I want to worship God, but what is THIS name?"...

This is what kept running thru my head while in the Sabbath service in the Church of God...

This blog was created for those with a mind like mine. Who might of heard of this "new name" of Christ, Ahnsanghong, and didn't understand.
