Over 1,000 Global Religious Leaders Gather in Korea for the “3rd Special Lecture on Revelation Open to All Nations”
Cheongju, Republic of Korea — November 3, 2025
The 3rd Special Lecture on Revelation Open to All Nations, hosted by the Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony, concluded successfully following four days of lectures and discussions that sought to deepen interreligious understanding and promote peace through scripture.
The event brought together more than 1,000 participants including 521 religious leaders from 61 countries, representing faiths such as Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism. This third session marked the largest gathering since the lecture series began.

Under the theme “The Path of Understanding Guided by the Bible, the Path of Peace Walked Together by Religions,” the program focused on exploring the meaning and fulfillment of the Book of Revelation, highlighting how “God’s will is accomplished on earth” and seeking “Answers to Human Peace.” Participants attended lectures, panel discussions, and interfaith dialogues designed to promote mutual respect and cooperation across religions.
Since its inception in February 2024, when 80 participants from 28 countries attended the first lecture, the series has shown steady growth, expanding to 270 participants from 57 countries in the second session and more than 1,000 from 61 countries in the third. This growth reflects a rising global interest in interreligious dialogue and in the program’s message of peace and unity through scripture.
Sheikh Musa Saidi, Former Deputy President of the Islamic Supreme Council of Zambia, said that as a Muslim leader living in a predominantly Christian country, he attended the event to better understand the beliefs of his Christian brothers and sisters. He emphasized that to be a good Muslim and a good community leader, one must understand the people one serves, Christians, Hindus, and those of other faiths, and that studying the Bible through this program helped him see the connections between religions. He added that God created humanity differently for a purpose, and that peaceful coexistence is only possible when people understand and respect one another.

He noted that as an educator, he believes it is important to include messages of love and peace in teaching so that students learn to live harmoniously regardless of their backgrounds or religions, emphasizing that education is a vital tool for building a peaceful world.
