===Lack of transparency and tax disputes===
*The internal front organization of Shincheonji, [[IWPG]](International Women's Peace Group), is under suspicion for lacking transparency as it collects donations from its members by requesting transfers to personal bank accounts and failing to provide guidance on issuing donation receipts.<ref>{{cite news|last=Park|first=In Jae|title=신천지 내부 위장단체 IWPG, 신도들에게 후원금 모금 정황 포착|trans-title=Shincheonji's internal front group IWPG has been caught in the act of fundraising from its members.|language=ko|url=https://www.amennews.com/news/articleView.html?idxno=30163|access-date=13 December 2024|newspaper=Amen News|date=12 December 2024}}</ref>
*The court ruled that the National Tax Service's tax imposition was justified, citing HWPL's repeated profit generation through DVD sales to Shincheonji members and its failure to pay gift taxes on donations received from Shincheonji. HWPL's claims that the DVDs were given as a token of appreciation for donations and that it was exempt from gift tax as a cultural organization were rejected due to a lack of objective evidence and the organization's nature, which made it difficult to classify as a private diplomatic entity.<ref>{{cite news|last=Oh|first=Ki Seon|title="세금 못 내겠다" 버틴 신천지 유관기관 HWPL '철퇴'|trans-title=Shincheonji-Affiliated HWPL Faces Crackdown After Refusing to Pay Taxes|language=ko|url=http://www.hdjongkyo.co.kr/m/content/view.html?section=22&category=1001&no=20334|access-date=4 February 2025|newspaper=Modern Religion|date=3 February 2025}}</ref>
*Kim Won-guk, the leader of the Philip Tribe, which oversees [[Gangwon Province, South Korea|Gangwon Province]] and parts of [[North Chungcheong Province]], was dismissed from his long-held position due to financial misconduct, including embezzlement ranging from tens of billions to 10 billion KRW.<ref>{{cite news|last=Park|first=In Jae|title=소문만 무성하던 신천지 빌립지파장 교체설, 사실로 드러나|trans-title=Rumored Replacement of Shincheonji Philip Tribe Leader Confirmed as True|language=ko|url=https://www.amennews.com/news/articleView.html?idxno=30408|access-date=18 February 2025|newspaper=Amen News|date=17 February 2025}}</ref>
