Elohim and the World Mission Society Church of God
‘ELOHIM’ AND THE CHURCH OF GOD
My experience about Church of God–The World Mission Society Church of God started from South Korea. Members of the WMSCOG are preaching Elohim God’s gospel. Uniformly opening the book of Genesis, they asked me if I knew what Elohim means. Why do they emphasize Elohim so much? Do you know its meaning in the Bible? While studying the Bible, I realized that whoever wants to be saved must receive Elohim God.
‘El’ or ‘Eloah’ indicates God in the singular form while ‘Elohim’ means ‘God’s’. In the ancient Bible Torah, God is recorded as ‘Elohim’ over 2,500 times. Then, this is not an issue to be taken lightly for sure. Do you know that famous verse in Genesis Chapter 1. ‘In the beginning, God crated the world’? God the Creator is also described as plural form in Torah.
Elohim – plural form of God = Gods
NOT ONLY GOD THE FATHER BUT ALSO GOD THE MOTHER
However, assuming that the word ‘Elohim’ appears several times in the Bible, it seemed that God might have wanted to firmly publicize that he is not only one. Not once or twice… Then, why? About this, Church of God explained that God exists as God the Father and God the Mother. Since God exists as God the Father and God the Mother, it is considered not singular but plural. Based on this, we can understand Genesis Chapter 1. correctly.
Ge 1:26~27
Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, in our likeness… So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
THE EXISTENCE OF GOD THE MOTHER?
If Elohim indicates God the Father and the God the Mother, then surely it could be described in plural Forms. Whoever reads Genesis Chapter 1. can find this fact that there must be another God. However, I wondered why other churches do not teach this great thing. I asked members of the WMSCOG, “Does your church preach this obvious facts to other churches?”
‘Would the teachings of the Church of God be right?, Plural Gods?
A few days later, I asked about this problem to my friends who go to other churches. The impressive things that I’ve heard are two stories as following.
ELOHIM MEANS THE TRINITY?
My friend replied to my question with the Trinity. He said, “You know the Trinity. That is, God the Father and God the Son and the Holy Spirit are the same and one God! So, these three God’s can be expressed Gods(Elohim).” I thought this surely made sense.
Elohim doesn’t mean trinity!
GOD HAS NO GENDER AND NO SPECIFIC IMAGE?
Another friend insisted, “God Almighty has no gender and no specific image, so, we can never count God like one or two!” Then, I replied, “Really? Then, why does God use the word ‘Elohim’ indicating Himself? Why did say, ‘Let us make man in our image in our likeness’ when He created man?” He was perplexed at my reaction.
Nevertheless, I was so confused with these insistence.
AGAIN CHURCH OF GOD, AND ELOHIM GOD
Around that time, I avoided connections with the members of Church of God. Their Bible study was pretty interesting, yet I felt pressure to meet strangers. My curiosity of the Elohim God almost figured out in the end. One day, when I met the members of Church of God by accident on my way home, I was a little shocked.
“I know Elohim God, too, and you are wrong. God exists as God the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit. So it can be expressed ‘Elohim’ in plural Form.”
“Ah? Think carefully what the Trinity means. God the Father, and the son, and the Holy Spirit is not different and totally same one God. Right? So God the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit is one. That means single, I can’t be Elohim(Gods) which means plural Form.”
I was confused. I was really so when they asked me, “If Elohim God means the Trinity, then, there should come out three men when God created human in God’s image in Genesis chapter 1?”
ELOHIM GOD I MEET IN THE CHURCH OF GOD
Since then, I have studied about the Bible in the Church of God. This happened after my confidence while studying the truth of the Trinity. God the Father and God the Son and God the Holy Spirit are the same and one God. The Trinity was about God the Father. It cannot be a perfect answer about Elohim God.
Two image of God – male and female
The impressive thing I have studied is that the process on this earth where life is given through ‘father’ and ‘mother’ is a copy of what is in heaven. Yet, I am just discovering about Elohim God in the Church of God. When I reached the end of this journey, would I finally meet a true God?
I was also confused when they showed me the spirit and the bride in rev22:17 and Elohim God in genesis chapter1. But now, thanks to father and mother I could understand and meet Elohim God in Zion!!
Wow, this article makes me have no doubt about Elohim God, God the Father and God the Mother. I can see how the writer was confused before accept the fact of God the Mother. After reading it, I now agree that Bible has many contradictions without God the Mother. Thank you for this article 🙂
I heard the word “Elohim” from one of songs of Prince of egypt “Deliever us”. So I was pretty curious what Elohim means. Now I clearly understand it. Elohim means Gods, God the Father and God the Mother!
We are a happy heavenly family. We are a complete happy heavenly family because we have not only God the Father but also God the Mother with us. Thank You Mother with all our heart^^
It’s a perfect heavenly family!! Without Mother, we don’t need to call God as ‘Father’. From the beginning, there was Mother!!
It’s first time to hear Elohim in the Bible.
quite interesting information.
A few years ago, I’ve received Elohim God in Zion(WMSCOG). Exactly, Heavenly Parents came to the earth to seek me, one of the heavenly lost children mindless of all dangers. I realized that the Bible was given us to meet Elohim God before the day comes!
I have been thought God is only one. But God ther Father is only one. And God the Mother is only one too. It’s new but true. Really amazing!
Our mother has existed from the beginning but she has come in this last age as prophesied in the Bible:)
God bless you all!
Whoever follows Elohim God in this age will surely inherit the kingdom of heaven! The Bible leads us to the Spirit and the Bride, who have come with living water!
Amen. We are blessed that God allowed us to meet our heavenly Father and Mother who is the source of water of life, our God and savior in this last age, the holy spirit age.
We are Elohist who follow Elohim God!
I thought the same as many peoples.. Gods means Trinity. But where is God who had made female like me as follow God’s image… it’s nonsence. If God has only male image.
Being loved by Elohim God on the earth means that you will inherit the kingdom of heaven. Their coming to the earth is not for Themselves but for us, heavenly sinners.
When I heard about God the Mother first, I felt unfamiliar. But from the beginning of the Creation, God the Mother has existed. The word of “Elohim” shows the existence of God the Father & God the Mother.
The knowledge of Elohim God will be needed before the day come when we all have to stand before the throne of judgment. Without this knowledge, who on earth can be saved? No one!
Surely! Without understand Elohim God, it’s impossible to live a new life in heaven’s kingdom. They prepared all things needed for eternal salvation in Zion!
Always welcome and anytime you can come. Come see and study about truth of this age!
The living water flows only from the Spirit and the Bride in the age of the Holy Spirit. Only those who are with Elohim God wil enter the heavenly kingdom.
The opportunity to be saved is allowed to everyone as long as he truly wants. The salvation comes only from the Spirit and the Bride!
Elohim means that God the father and mother exist. It is not means trinity. We can easily know this trough the bible. Thanks to God to let us cleary explain this truth.
The Bible is fact. we can only find our savior through the Bible and the Bible says since from the beginning of the creation of the world. God has two images and in the image of God, Adam and Eve were created.
Adam represents God the Father
Eve represents God the Mother and we can understand God through their creation that all lives in this world are given through their father and mother likewise our SPIRITUAL LIFE is given through GOD THE FATHER and GOD THE MOTHER. You must believe in God Elohim for your salvation in this age of the Holy Spirit.
In the beginninh God the Father and Mother created the heavens and the earth. God said I am the Alpha and the Omega, the behinning and the end, the first and the last.
Now, in this age of the Holy spirit. Rev 22:17 God the Father(Spirit) and God the Mother (Bride) is calling us to come in them to receive the water of life only God can give us eternal life.
So please, you must believe The Spirit and the Bride and be saved. we love you.
