Who would have believed the prediction of kids killing their parents in the future and children kidnappings. Amazing. As you know this speech was given by Dr. Sun Myung Moon using the his intensive 9-year study of the bible:
Rebellion of Teenaged Adam and Eve
"Adam and Eve distrusted God and betrayed Him; this sowed the seeds of grief throughout the cosmos.
"Therefore in the Last Days, parents and the children will be in conflict. Just as the first human ancestors betrayed and distrusted God their Father, their descendants in the Last Days will likewise
experience children rebelling against their parents…
"That is why in today’s society there is a pervasive tone of distrust, between parents and children,
between husbands and wives, and between relatives. People no longer have confidence about their
purpose for living, so much have those who deny its basis obfuscated the matter. As you see this
happening, you should know that the Last Days are here."Today we face a serious youth problem. In the Garden of Eden, when Adam and Eve fell, they were teenagers. They planted the seed of free sex when they fell by engaging in an illicit sexual relationship in the shade. That is why now, during the harvest time of the Last Days, it was inevitable that free sex would become rampant throughout the world.
"Satan knows that God is trying to bring all human beings to Heaven by promoting the standard
of true love—absolute love without any trace of the Fall. Because Satan knows that the returning
Messiah will carry out this plan, his strategy is to utterly dismantle this standard. Therefore, as
there is no longer any basis for love, people today engage in all sorts of behavior, including free sex,
homosexuality and lesbianism. Homosexuals and lesbians are seeds of the archangel; therefore, like
angels they have no object partner of love
"These are the Last Days, when everywhere people are stripping off their clothes and perishing. It is the end of Satan’s dominion. Now the earth has become hell, where life is in step with Satan’s world of hell. Therefore, if you seek and follow a way 180 degrees opposite the prevailing lifestyle, it will be a path connected to Heaven.
"At the Fall, the archangel Lucifer acted to make Eve his enemy and Eve acted to make Adam her
enemy. As a result, Adam, Eve and the archangel became enemies to one another. Therefore, in
the Last Days everyone will become enemies to one another. Your children will become your enemies; mothers and fathers become enemies; brothers and sisters will become enemies. Nations will become enemies. All relationships will be torn apart, and you will not be able to trust anyone.
"What will become of ethics and morality? Such a hurricane of chaos will sweep the world that people will lose any sense of direction.
People will not be able to tell right from wrong and good from evil. When that time comes, it is the Last Days. The Last Days are here right now! You will see incidents where children kill their parents and parents kill their children. You will see ministers killing members of their congregation, and acrimonious battles between church members and their ministers. Everyone will be divided. Why is that? The seed of enmity sown by Adam, Eve and the archangel has resulted in the world becoming a battlefield." 1971"What will become of ethics and morality? Such a hurricane of chaos will sweep the world that people will lose any sense of direction.
Why America Losing Christian Values
All religions have lost their footing. Because Christianity did not completely fulfill God’s will,
Buddhism, Confucianism and Islam are also going through a tough course. As a result, families,
societies, nations and the world have become like hell.
God’s ideal realm of love is nowhere to be found on earth. Even in a vast country like America, God cannot find a True Son or True Daughter whose mind and body are truly united. God cannot find a husband and wife who are united according to the original standard that God has desired since before the Fall. In every family, parents and children are fighting. The decline of religion has led to a world of selfish individualism in which everyone is divided.

The decline of religion has led to a world of selfish individualism in which everyone is divided.
Without a clear vertical standard, the concepts of male and female are hazy. That is why, along with
free sex, we see so much sexual confusion in the Last Days.
In the free world today, many people are unwilling to marry. They live together without a legal marriage, jumping from one relationship to another… It seems like everyone is perishing, but through it God has a strategy to save them all. This trend somehow makes sense if you look at it from God’s perspective. In God’s view, our spirit and body is supposed to become one centered on true love, not on false love.
Therefore, as people live together who have not found the origin of true love they will continue to be restless, with spirit and body divided. Once they pass through that stage, after awhile they will yearn for the marriage Blessing, the Blessing that only Heaven can give. Why Doesn't God End Evil?
God cannot strike human beings even when they take Satan’s side. God has to use the strategy
of being struck first and then taking the victory. Satan always strikes first, but loses in the end. Throughout history Satan takes the side of self-centered people and incites them to hatred and conflict to try to destroy Heaven’s side. Heaven, on the contrary, aims for the good of all, working to recreate the world with love and peace.
In the Last Days, when Satan is about to lose his dominion to Heaven’s side, he will suggest atheism to the world, advocating that there is no God. This will result in movements to establish humanism, materialism and communism. All over the world, these ideologies of the left are in battle
with Heaven’s side on the right.
Ultimately, however, history will enter an era of a Great Revolution when Heaven’s side will win
and peace will prevail throughout the world. This could have occurred already, with the victory of
Christian culture at the end of the Second World War, but Christianity failed its mission to follow the returned Messiah. So Christianity had to indemnify this, you see during the 60s the breakdown of the morals in youth, divorces on the rise and the sex and drug revolution thereafter.How Can This Be Indemnified?
After World War II, humankind was struggling to overcome the pain of war and find the way for
all nations to live in peace. At that time, God commanded the Messiah of the Second Coming to start a world-level movement to establish God’s Kingdom on the foundation of two thousand years of Christianity. The main point God revealed to the Messiah was the formula course to establish the True Parents and unite humankind as one true family.
However, to God’s great disappointment, the Korean Christian leaders did not accept this truth.
As a result, the Messiah had no choice but to walk the path of hardship. Although he had committed no crime, he was persecuted, opposed and imprisoned. This mistake of Christianity became the condition and spiritual foundation for evil to gain power in Korea. Herein lay the internal and providential reason for the Korean War and the division of Korea that has persisted for over half a century.
We also should recognize the existence of evil spirits as another avenue for our children to be led astray.
This is the biblical account of the onslaught of demons and spirits in Revelations:
And the fifth angel blew his trumpet, and I saw a star fallen from heaven to earth, and he was given the key of the shaft of the bottomless pit; he opened the shaft of the bottomless pit, and from the shaft rose smoke like the smoke of a great furnace, and the sun and the air were darkened with the smoke from the shaft.
Then from the smoke came locusts on the earth, and they were given power like the power of scorpions of the earth; they were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any green growth or any tree, but only those of mankind who have not the seal of God upon their foreheads; they
Then from the smoke came locusts on the earth, and they were given power like the power of scorpions of the earth; they were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any green growth or any tree, but only those of mankind who have not the seal of God upon their foreheads; they
were allowed to torture them for five months, but not to kill them, and their torture was like the torture of a scorpion, when it stings a man. And in those days men will seek death and will not find it; they will long to die, and death will fly from them.
The increase in depression, suicidal thoughts, diseases, autism etc. are all due to spiritual problems, but as the bible says, only those without the seal of God. Others are protected.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if God had created the teenaged Adam and Eve complete and perfect? To be robots that follow the universal law like nature. Sounds good in theory, but who wants to be a robot without choice? But that is not how the universe works. All things begin from the bottom-most stage and grow to reach their proper level. Thus, Adam and Eve should begin their lives as babies and grow up. They are not meant to have a complete relationship with the universe in an instant.
When a young man reaches the age of fifteen, sixteen and seventeen, he comes to enjoy the world of male-female relationships. He feels romantic, poetic yearnings. Don’t teenagers feel that way? They would like to leave home, travel all over the world and find adventure on land and sea.
That is when their eyes are wide open to find a partner for love.
Adolescence is the time to give off fragrance. It spreads far and wide, attracting the bees and butterflies. That is why young men and women want to become the top champion, the top student, the
top everything
Today’s teenagers are wild; they hook up with anyone willy-nilly. By doing so, they bring about their
own ruin and society’s ruin. Yet, because adolescence is a time of change, teens cannot settle with
one partner; they go from one relationship to another.
Therefore, teenagers need to follow a definite discipline and be aware of the dangerous circumstances in which they live. You [parents] need to straighten them out. You need to clear up the complications in their lives and teach them the positives of following God's path instead of stating just the dangers and heartaches going down the wrong path.
Just as Adam and Eve were warned with death and still chose death, it is a slippery slope to give children our heartfelt warnings without them wanting to follow the dangerous and "exciting" path we try our hardest to prevent. Isn't this every parent's worry?
In Revelations it said that God would be sorry for those who bare children, now I fully understand, because God knew in the last day that the evil and good would battle on every level of individual, family and society. He foresaw the chaos and gave his sympathies. There is a victory up ahead if all of those in faith keep their feet planted steadfast to God during these Last Days. Hold on, victory of God and a peaceful world is ahead, we just have to choose it.
