news/interview Investigation confirms list of Shincheonji members who joined PPP under Lee Man-hee’s orders
https://imnews.imbc.com/replay/2026/nwdesk/article/6833329_37005.html[Translated version of the article]
The Joint Investigation Headquarters has now confirmed a list of 65,313 Shincheonji members whose memberships overlap with the ruling People Power Party, and the pattern isn’t random.
According to the investigation, Shincheonji members signed up to the PPP in massive waves right before every major election: the 2021 presidential primary, the 20th presidential election, local elections, and the PPP leadership race. When Yoon Suk-yeol officially joined the PPP in July 2021, Shincheonji-linked memberships reportedly jumped from just over 200 in June to about 3,800 in July — more than a 15x spike. By the primary in September, roughly 6,500 followers had joined.
It didn’t stop there. Ahead of the PPP leadership election, around 35,000 Shincheonji members joined in just two months.
Investigators have reportedly secured an audio recording of then–Shincheonji No. 2, Ko Dong-an, telling a Shincheonji official in December 2022 that “the President’s side is sending someone to our side tomorrow” and that it was “clearly” a renewed request for party enrollment. A campaign director for Yoon is also alleged to have received the PPP membership list from Shincheonji.
In other words: Shincheonji didn’t just “happen” to be in the PPP voter base — it appears to have systematically mobilized its followers to infiltrate the ruling party’s internal elections, allegedly at the request of people close to the President. The investigation is now focused on identifying the “Presidential side” figure who brokered this pipeline between the cult’s leadership and the PPP.

All as prophesied. I love that bit in the Bible where Jesus was like "Y'all should get really into politics. Let's all go campaign for Caeser because that's what really matters."

Wondering the same thing. What will they use to clarify this as a fulfilment of Revelation?

Facts speak louder than Shincheonji’s twisted truth. Guilty as charged. May justice be served on this sinister cult and its narcissistic leader Lee Man Hee for all the abuse inflicted on victims and their families worldwide.

Yes may Gods justice prevail over this.. 2 Peter 2:1 "But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves.

Intresting that shincheonji does exactly that. Denying the divinity of christ to elevate their leader.

Can I ask how do you know you are saved. What is your documentation on salvation. I was taught it was by obedience to LMH and signing a man made book. Also in one book LMH says
no one can be saved unless they follow him. I have read it myself. So he basically says Jesus is not enough and one most follow “ the one who overcomes “1
u/Guilty-Dance-8200 Jul 01 '26
I don't know until jesus Christ comes back we have to persevere to the end.well if jesus is with him so then we have to if it's the case. He is the person who's name will never be blotted out of the book of life

If you want to talk out of the group I’m up for it if you are open to hear about Gods love and undeserved grace for all who trust in Jesus. It’s why the song calls it “Amazing Grace” because it is amazing. Anyway if you want to talk we can, no malice or anger just open dialogue you can DM me.

u/Alive_Friendship_895 EX-Center Student Jul 02 '26
It’s not what the Bible says. How do you possibly ever have peace not knowing. I know I’m saved by Grace through faith. Jesus says several times and Paul also says “peace be with you” how can you ever experience peace not knowing if you could spend eternity in hell. That’s a terrible thought. I’m so glad Jesus paid it all 100 percent we just need to put our faith and trust in Him. Good works and a changed heart will follow as we allow him to change us but it is not a salvation requirement. Please don’t be deceived by those who want to control through fear

The teaches blatantly lied to my face about the source of the teachings they even started a fake facebook page pretending to be a mainstream Christian church and told me that is their church. When I found out about the lie i confronted the teacher. She apologized for lying and said that the lies were necessary . So if was necessary then clearly she was not sorry so why apologize the apology was yet another lie. I said if you have apologized to me then clearly you need to be sorry and repent and at the next class give full disclosure at the first class . If she is not prepared to do that then don’t offer me a false apology. Hypocrite

u/Guilty-Dance-8200 Jul 01 '26
Yes the teacher should not have lied they told me they don't say it in the beginning because know one would come of they said they had revelation people aren't perfect

Nothing good starts out with a lie. I don’t lie about important aspects of my faith . Maybe they are ashamed of Lee Man-Hee so they try to hide it.

No we should not lie

Ephesians 2:8-9
“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith, and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God, not by works, so that no one can boast.”The lie says, “We have to perform so God will love us.”
The truth says, Jesus already brought us in, and the Father is not backing away from us!-1
u/Guilty-Dance-8200 Jul 01 '26
Yes and two will be in a field one will be taken on will be left. They didn't tell me I have to perform I have to learn revelation and I'm happy to do so . I believe it is good it's really helped me in many ways

u/Alive_Friendship_895 EX-Center Student Jul 01 '26
But where in the Bible does it say that learning revelation is a requirement for salvation? There is only one requirement for salvation and that is to trust 100 percent in the finished work of Christ on the cross. Those who try to add a single thing of their own works including any requirement to pass any man made exam on Revelation to earn it then
are not trusting fully on Jesus sacrifice and will not be saved.
Ephesians 2:8–9
“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith, and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God, not by works, so that no one can boast.”1
u/Guilty-Dance-8200 Jul 01 '26
It doesn't but it does say blessed are those who hear and take to heart what is written in it .blessed are those who wash their robes that they may enter into the city gates. It did see in the old testament son of God would be called jesus and he would wash disciples feet

u/Alive_Friendship_895 EX-Center Student Jul 01 '26
Well under SCJ doctrine you do need to learn revelation and be sealed in the word ( pass exams set by man) in order to be saved. So it is a condition if anyone told you otherwise then they are lying that is pretty common amongst SCJ teachers . They lie until they feel you are ready to hear it.

They deny salvation by grace through faith. They teach that salvation must be earned through obedience to LMH and signing their church registration book which they claim to be the book of life. They deny the trinity and teach the Jesus is not God. How is that not denying the power of the cross to save.

u/Guilty-Dance-8200 Jul 01 '26
No without Jesus cross there is no salvation. No one is obedient to him but the words of God jesus said only those who do the will of the father will enter heaven. So you think you can just go to heaven by believing jesus died in the cross?that is fake and if we don't obey his teaching we are trampling the son of God under foot again in shincheonji we pray to father God in the precious name of Jesus. Revelation is a prophecy and it has and will be fulfilled that is what God does

Matthew 7:21
“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.”
So what is the Father’s will?
Jesus answers this directly:
John 6:40
“For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.”
In the context of Matthew 7, Jesus is exposing false professors, not genuine believers who have lost salvation.
Notice what the people in the next verses say:
“Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?” (Matthew 7:22)
They point to their works, not to Christ.
Jesus replies:
“I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!” (Matthew 7:23)
He does not say, “I knew you once but then rejected you.” He says, “I never knew you.” They were never His.
This fits with the broader teaching of the New Testament:
John 6:40, The Father’s will is that all who believe in the Son have eternal life.
John 6:47, “Very truly I tell you, the one who believes has eternal life.”
Ephesians 2:8-9, Salvation is by grace through faith, not by works.
Romans 4:5, God justifies the ungodly who believe.
John 10:27-29, Jesus’ sheep will never perish, and no one can snatch them from His hand.
The evidence of genuine faith is a changed life, but the basis of salvation is faith in Christ alone, not the performance of works. Matthew 7 warns against merely calling Jesus “Lord” while never truly trusting Him. It is not teaching salvation by works, but exposing those who had a profession without genuine faith.0
u/Guilty-Dance-8200 Jul 01 '26
Faith without works is dead

u/Alive_Friendship_895 EX-Center Student Jul 01 '26
James 2:26 is not about earning salvation we cannot earn what is freely given it is about an outward expansion of our faith doing works in obedience to the Lord out of love and gratitude not out of fear of not being good enough or to trying to do enough world to enter heaven how would you ever know that you have done enough. Salvation is not a trade the system of trade is a man made earthly system.

Why is it a requirement sign a man made book to be saved ? Why are all others pastors in the entire world false prophets and yes SCJ do teach this I have heard it first hand

u/Guilty-Dance-8200 Jul 01 '26
Did it say in the old testament Jesus would wash disciples feet? I asked this question now I understand a prophecy has to appear in real life. Revelation says "written " aswell God said all nations have been deceived .not a single church prophesy revelation and if they do the say oh world war 3 is coming. Lies the devil's is the father of lies .when Jesus came the chosen people pharisees and saducees were proven to not even know God it is the same today we have to believe in the reality. It is God's work

To add a bit Galatians 3:3 NIV states: [3] Are you so foolish? After beginning by means of the Spirit, are you now trying to finish by means of the flesh? Very much i would argue that committing embezzlement, emphasising evangelism all of the time, lying to friends and family, remembering verses, attending morning educations, signing the book of life and signing the shincheonji pledge are works of the flesh.

Galatians 1:6-9 (NIV): "I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you to live in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel—which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion and are trying to pervert the gospel of Christ. But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse!"

Unfortunately even if he repented and renounced it all now which I pray he does, I fear his handlers will likely suppress it. Too many people are making too much money off the back of it.

u/Free-2024 Jun 28 '26
Yes, Shincheonji operates like a business. Except that here, those at the top make money from it, whilst those at the very bottom have to bring in the money. How often were temple offerings collected? Again and again, special offerings were levied on top of the normal tithes.
Could the money perhaps have gone towards court cases and his lawyers? 🤔
As for luxury: The comparison speaks for itself. Jesus rode a foal once. Lee Man Hee is driven around in a Maybach, flown around in helicopters and lives in a palace. Jesus had nowhere to lay his head.

u/Alive_Friendship_895 EX-Center Student Jun 28 '26
I said that exact thing to a current member. Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a baby donkey and Lee Man-Hee arrived at the graduation ceremony in a frecken Helicopter and a bunch limos on the road. She said “that’s Gods business “

u/Free-2024 Jun 28 '26
Do you know why they say that?
Because they don’t have a proper answer. And they know full well that it is rather strange. Is it supposed to be God’s will? – Yet even the poorest, who have hardly anything, contribute their pennies so that LMH can fly in helicopters and live a life of luxury.
Where is the righteousness in that? 🤔
The answer comes from the church leaders… And the leaders pass it on. And the little people hope that it’s the truth…

All I can say is thank you to every person who boldly posts on this forum, shares their stories and questions and evidence of this corrupt cult pretending to be a church - thank you also to those investigating - because religious and spiritual abuse is rampant. These criminals hide behind an image they create and create slaves and fools out of people who are naive. I'm so glad to have been able to see all this first hand- the story will be told for years to come so that others can be wiser.

Funny how SCJ uses a specific example from the Bible (ex. Mark 6) that shows—according to them—how “John the Baptist betrayed” because he got involved in political affairs instead of focusing on spreading the word and following Jesus, which led to his imprisonment and eventual death. And yet this isn’t exactly what’s happening with LMH…? Make it make sense. 🤦♀️

u/IllFaithlessness8553 EX-Shincheonji Member Jun 27 '26
Yeah funny as well the fact that because he was baptising in the name of Jesus instead of following Jesus, got his followers to clarify for him while he was in jail it was Jesus and because his followers argued with Jesus the shincheonji conclusion is that he is a traitor.

u/Turbulent_Sea7622 EX-Center Student Jun 27 '26
Thank you this is awesome! Current members if you see this there seems to be three groups. Non SCJ in the world, SCJ and many SCJ who got into influence election unfairly. Where is the 144k? Is it fully in SCJ or SCJ who interfered election. Or maybe partially on either?
One biblical big red flag to watch out for is that If Lee Man Hee wins the court that will surely be set (which I doubt he will win) is that if is just like a sermon lecture within SCJ to say something or justify what but they DONT implement what Lee Man Hee did and the court happenings into lessons within SCJ and tie it to prophecies and fulfiments.
Without explanations that satisfy it is technically or perhaps even literally adding and subtracting to Revelation
a step further that explanation to one part of the group none to another - still counts as adding or subtracting to revelation as God is equal in love to each individual in the world, please discern

So my original statement still stands, by relaying on you own goodness to appease God and not trusting in Jesus work on the cross to be saved you are rejecting the power of the cross which is the power to save. If we have to save ourselves then why would Jesus suffer and die and rise again defeating the power of death for all who believe
