The Unification of the Church

Background The letters from Ephesians are the tenth book of the New Testament, and that writer is attributed to Paul's transformation from Christian persecution to the apostles. The legitimacy of his writer is still being discussed by scholars. Harold Horner cites the reasons of many scholars who rejected Paul as the author of his book Ephesian: Commentary. However, for the purposes of this interpretation, Paul is considered the author of this letter. It is estimated that this letter was written between 60 and 61 BC (Arnold, 3).

The Doctrine of the Unification Church was written in a book written by Sun Mingyue. The title of this book is a sacred principle. Its purpose is to be a text of concordance, as the Bible does for Christians. Indeed, most of the concepts based on his teachings come from the Bible. But as you learn more about the principles of God there are many contradictions with what actually is written in the Bible. "The holy principle is not merely to read other materials of the Bible, but to interpret misunderstanding clearly" (164)

From the beginning, he insisted that the unification movement was a Christian, and tried to extend its doctrine to churches and organizations of mainstream Christians. Korean Unification Church is called heretical by the Protestant Church of Korea including the Presbyterian Church of the Moon. In the United States, the church was rejected by non - Christians by a universal organization. The main objection to it was theology, especially because the Unification Church added teaching materials to the Bible and refused Jesus' literal return. Protestant critics also criticized the doctrine of the Joint Church contrary to the simple belief of saving Protestant teachings.

Unity Church: A new religious movement founded in South Korea by Sun Mingyue in 1954. The official name of the movement is the Christian unity of the world's Holy Spirit Association. Unified theology is based on the interpretation of the New Testament by the Old Testament and the Moon. It is argued that Jesus' mission is to restore spiritual and physical salvation to the world, but he is crucified and can only bring spiritual relief. Moon claims that physical redemption is achieved by marriage, so Moon chooses a member of the church to marry. Their children are thought not to have "corrupted nature" (Smith and Green 1995: 1109)
