Today, there are many [[Church|churches]] in each country, but it is difficult to find one that succeeds the early Church that kept the [[New Covenant|new covenant]] established by Jesus. As the church became secularized for a long time, the truth of the new covenant has disappeared and people no longer follow the truth. | Today, there are many [[Church|churches]] in each country, but it is difficult to find one that succeeds the early Church that kept the [[New Covenant|new covenant]] established by Jesus.

Jesus Christ established the law of the '''new covenant''' and preached [[Gospel of the Kingdom|the gospel of the kingdom of heaven]] for the salvation of mankind.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www. | Jesus Christ established the law of the '''new covenant''' and preached [[Gospel of the Kingdom|the gospel of the kingdom of heaven]] for the salvation of mankind.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+4%3A23&version=NIV |title=Matthew 4:23 |publisher= |quote= }}</ref> And He asked His disciples to go to all people in the world and preach the gospel to them. Following the teachings of Jesus, the early Church kept the truth of the [[Gospel and the New Covenant|new covenant]] and preached it, including the [[Sabbath]], the [[Passover]], and the [[The Feasts of God|seven feasts in three times]]. | ||
However, after the Apostolic Age, the church gradually became secularized and lost the truth of the new covenant as they had adopted the pagan custom. Through the 16th-century religious reformation, the church managed to accomplish the religious reformation, such as restoring freedom of faith, but they still fail to find the truth of the early Church established by Jesus. There are now many churches in the world, but it is difficult to find one that fully inherits the original form of the faith of the early Church. | However, after the Apostolic Age, the church gradually became secularized and lost the truth of the new covenant as they had adopted the pagan custom.
