Template:Contains Korean text Jung Myung-seok (born February 17, 1945)[3][4] is the founder of an international Christian religious movement Providence. He is also known by the names of Joshua Jung, "Joshua Lee" and "Pastor Joshua".[5]

Since founding his first church in Seoul, South Korea in 1980 Jung has developed his organization into a religious movement.

Following accusations against him by South Korean police of rape, fraud and embezzlement, Jung fled the country in 1999 and spent time in Hong Kong and China before being arrested by Chinese police in May 2007.[6][7][8] In April 2009, the Supreme court of South Korea sentenced him to 10 years imprisonment.[9]

Early biography

Jung was born in Geumsan County, South Chungcheong. According to Yoshihide Sakurai, a professor of sociology at Hokkaido University,[10] Jung was involved with the Unification Church from 1975 to 1978, and as a result, Jung's teachings closely resemble those of the Unification Church.[11][12]

In 1980, he began his first church which has grown into the international religious movement known as "Providence."

According to the Information Network on Christian Heresies, in 1986 the vice president of Providence attempted to act on the sex scandals surrounding the group, but he was shut out of the organizational system and Jung consolidated all power around himself.[13]

Sexual abuse charges

In 1999, Seoul Broadcasting System (SBS) in Korea reported about sexual abuse allegedly committed by Jung. According to former members, Jung had forced dozens of women to have sex with him, and said that they would go to hell if they told anyone what he had done. [14] This resulted in Jung fleeing the country one day later.[15] He was officially charged in 2001.[16] Providence sued SBS to prevent them from airing the show again. At the end of the trial in 2002, a witness who had testified that there was no sexual exploitation from 1993-4 was found guilty of perjury.[17]

Jung was arrested in 2003 for overstaying his visa in Hong Kong and was due to be returned to Korea, but when released on bail, fled the extradition hearing.[6][18][19]

In April 2006, a press conference was held by the anti-cult group EXODUS in which four unidentified women dressed in baseball caps and bandanas covering their faces,accused Jung of organised sex crimes against themselves and other women, who required medical treatment.[20]

After nearly 9 years on the run,[21] Jung was arrested by Chinese police in May 2007.[6][7] He was extradited back to South Korea on February 20, 2008.[22] Jung has also been charged with fraud and embezzlement of church funds.[23]

South Korean media reported that Jung had claimed to have received a "special revelation" from God, and that many female members of his cult were ordered to undress for a "health check" and have sex with him to wipe off their sins. Jung denies the charges, his followers say.[24]

In 2008, in response to the rape allegations, Providence pastor Bae Jae-yong said that it was "distorted rumor that was created by the people who have slandered him" and that "all fundamental truth will be clarified by [Jung] at the prosecutor's office".[22]

In January 2008, the Supreme Court of South Korea found that Jung forced two female followers to have sex with him as part of a religious purification ritual.[25][26] Providence followers started riots outside of newspapers that reported the court's verdict, forcing The Dong-a Ilbo to temporarily shut down.[27]

In August 2008, Jung was convicted of sexual abuse charges and sentenced by Seoul Central District Court to six years imprisonment.[28][29] In February 2009, the Seoul High Court added four years to the lower court's sentence of six years.[9] Jung's appeal to the Supreme Court of South Korea of his 10 years imprisonment sentence was dismissed in April 2009.[30]

As of 2012, at least 10 women were still being kept for sexual exploitation by church leaders, according to Kim Jin-ho, former director of the cult and a representative of the watchdog organization No JMS (JMS 피해대책협의회). One former member who was a victim of Jung's sex crimes said that "there were over 1,000 women recruited for sexual exploitation, and even from prison he managed them, including minors." Jo Gyeong-suk, former head of the cult's Seoul branch, said that "not a few of those women committed suicide. They become severely depressed and receive psychiatric treatment, suffer various illnesses and social phobias as a result of the stress, and are unable to marry."[31] A press conference produced video evidence, with photos of a topless woman licking pictures of Jung. Jung's followers responded that the videos were made before 2008 and did not amount to proof that the women actually had intercourse with Jung.[32]

Jung's teaching

Jung's teaching is explained to followers in a series of 30 secret lectures. After a series of Bible studies aiming to demonstrate that the Great Tribulation has already begun, the final, most secret lectures prove that Jung is the Messiah using numerology, explain that those who do not "meet" him will not go to Heaven, and warn that any who betray him are committing a grave crime.[33] It is also taught that Eve was 14 years old when she first had sex with Adam.[34]

Jung believes he has come to finish the restoration history of the Holy Trinty, asserting that he is the messiah of this time period and has the responsibility to save all mankind.[35] Jung claims that the Christian doctrine of bodily resurrection is false but that people can be saved through him.[36]

Jung's teachings are similar to the Unification Church.[37] According to one researcher, nine of the 30 secret lectures resemble the Unification Church's Divine Principle very closely.[38] The main differences are that:

  1. it identifies Jung as the Messiah (rather than Sun Myung Moon)
  2. it teaches that original sin, originating in Eve's intercourse with Satan, can be defeated by having sex with Jung.[24][37][39]

Jung encourages his followers to form non-religious organisations for the purpose of attracting young people without initially revealing the religious nature of the group or their real motives,[40] in a practice which has been described as "fraudulent" by lawyers.[41]

"The church's doctrine is composed of the so-called '30 precepts,' although it's pretty clear that they're derived from the Unification Church," explains Toyoshige Aizawa, a Christian minister engaged in weaning young people away from cults. "Jong has twisted the biblical story of Adam and Eve to deal with sex, saying, 'To atone for Adam and Eve's original sin, which was visited upon all mankind, it's necessary to engage in intercourse with the Lord.' In this case, he means himself, since he claims to be a reincarnation of Jesus."

At university campuses, the sect's recruiters first approach students under the guise of a sports or cultural circle. After building close personal relationships with these students, the members reveal the religious nature of their group and start indoctrinating them. The favorite targets are serious-minded young people who feel alienated from their families and schools and wish to change their lives. {{cite news}}: Unknown parameter |trans_title= ignored (|trans-title= suggested) (help)

Ex-members say recruiting on campus started on Jung's orders in the mid-1990s. "It's a fraudulent activity, as they conceal the group's identity in luring members," a lawyer said. An ex-member in his 30s said he and other cultists were deprived of sleep--forced to work late into the night and then wake up early to listen to Jung's videotaped preaching.
