When members of the World Mission Society Church of God were asked, "Why did Ahn Sahng-hong claim to have been baptized in 1948 when he wasn't?" they presented Ahn's handwritten notes as evidence. These notes indicate that Ahn recorded his own baptism in the Seventh-day Adventist Church in 1948.

However, the Seventh-day Adventist Church strongly refutes this claim, asserting that Ahn was actually baptized in 1954, as clearly documented in their church records. They further state that the 1948 baptismal register was never lost and that there was no pastor named Lee Myung-deok in their denomination. This definitive rebuttal casts significant doubt on the claims made by the World Mission Society Church of God.

Despite this, members of the World Mission Society Church of God insist that "the Seventh-day Adventist Church should disclose the 1948 baptismal register." However, demanding the release of non-existent records lacks logical persuasiveness and is considered fallacious from a legal standpoint.

This controversy highlights the fragile foundation of the doctrines upheld by the World Mission Society Church of God. While members strive to defend the legitimacy of their beliefs, persisting in claims that contradict objective evidence may further undermine the church's credibility.

Should this matter proceed to trial, which side would the judge favor? Experts agree that arguments lacking objective evidence and sound reasoning are unlikely to hold up in court.
