Become Part of God's Direct Lineage

We have spoken in many posts about how Adam and Eve were suppose to become true parents. They were to attain true oneness centered on God and pass their pure blood lineage on generation after generation.

These true sons and true daughters who are born into God's direct blood lineage would fulfill God's ideal world full of peace.

As we know from the biblical account, the first ancestors formed a bond with Satan and thus became the satanic ringleaders giving birth to children of death born into sin.

Therefore, you and I are fallen ancestors.


If we are not true parents, this means we are false parents still passing on the lineage of the fall nonstop.

We are in the point of history where humankind must deny this false lineage of false parents and find the true parents who do not have any trace of the fall.

They carry God's direct lineage.  This has been God's Providence of Restoration, restoring the fallen world, since the moment of the Fall.

The Hope of Fallen People

Even if they are not aware of it, all fallen people have a deep desire to meet God's true son.

Even the communist nation had the notion of a world of peace; we all have a deep desire for peace.

They lament that they were born as Cain's children through a fallen blood ties with Satan.  We each can feel the internal conflict between our separated minds and bodies.

Imagine if Abel and Cain had united in their offering and Abel or even Jesus was to have children.

They would have been born on God's side.  Yet, mankind has suffered greatly while seeking God's true son at the individual level and family level.

God sent the Messiah; if people had received the Messiah they could have found God's son.  The time of the Messiah was to convey the joyful news that humankind could finally meet God's son up to the national level.

You and I were born with sinful, fallen blood inherited from Satan.  We have to meet God's son who can transcend all of the accusations of Satan which holds each of us down.

Then we would meet him as our parent after he fulfilled Messiahship on the individual level.  We have been raised by fallen, sinful parents, not true parents no matter how well they are, they carry the fallen bloodline of Satan.

Therefore, we seek true parents whom God directly loves and is connected in lineage.

Next, we must seek the family that those parents create.

After that, we must seek God's love upon finding it, we can meet God.  So, when the Messiah returns, he will perfect himself on the individual level, find a true bride, create a true family of true children that carry the direct lineage of God without any trace of the fall.

We should be aware that this is the pathway of humankind.  If parents and children who live a life worthy of God's love form families, they automatically prosper.

They will sing songs of love in a setting that can bring success to everything through harmonized families.  When this happens, a race centering on God's love will automatically be formed.

Is this a dream or is this where humankind is headed?  Will this standard of world peace be found through political ties, force, war, science or philosophy?

This standard must be found through religion.

If a true family becomes the model for the world to live is not established, then an ideal family, tribe, people nation and world will not be established.

Humanity needs a model of how to live such as shown through religions such as Jesus, Buddah who accomplished much on the individual level.

What is our ideal desire and hope?

This is the conclusion: first, attend God as our Father is our greatest hope; second, we are to become His beloved sons and daughters; and third, we are to inherit everything He owns.

What other human hope is greater than this?

The Goal of Restoration is Adam's Family

Our goal as we walk the path of restoring the world of peace, is to establish Adam's true family.

Immediately after Adam and Eve fell, God launched His providence to restore them through their children Cain and Abel.

That foundation was lost when Cain (representing Satan's side) killed Abel (representing God's side).

Therefore, the providence passed from Adam's family to Noah's family, building a foundation for His providence by annihilating all humankind through the flood judgment establishing a family that transcended above Satan's accusations.

Noah lost that foundation of building the Ark through his sons not completely following him and doubting him and covering his naked body when he was drunk after his successfully accomplished God's will.  

Again, this task was passed on through several saints: Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses and Jesus down to the Second Coming.

Through each age, a condition failed to be completely set in order to eradicate sin from the earth.  This caused each time period to elongate and the conditions were of a greater indemnity each time.

What has God sought until now?  He has been seeking an ideal object partner, not a subject partner.

God has been searching for one who resembles Him and has the same inner and outer qualities of the world He created.

What is the starting point?  The family.

Nothing else can represent the universe better than the family.

Then where will history conclude?

With substantial true children and true parents; it concludes at the level of the family.  This is the basics of the universe.

Without parents, then children cannot be born.  Children should inherit and have dominion over all things centering on the parents.  Adam and Eve were meant to rule over all things.

This principle applies to everything.

Through the six thousand years of God's Providence He has sought to establish a family through which they would be His true object partner.

Family is indispensable in the formation of a nation.

The basis of everything is the family.

Since the first family was destroyed, it is our responsibility to restore it.

Jesus had been born on earth as the unfallen Adam. Therefore , he was the second Adam.  Since Adam, who was the first ancestor of humankind, became a fallen ancestor, God sent Jesus who was the true ancestor to reverse Adam's mistake and start anew.  

We must establish Adam's family centering on such true ancestors. 

The Bible testifies of the Fall of the first human ancestors. 

This occurred between two people, Adam and Eve.

If after Eve and the archangel gave into the fruit of evil, Adam had refused to eat the fruit, then the problem would have been simple to reverse.  In such a case, God as the Creator would have re-created her.

Why did God have to restore the world starting from a family?  Because this is where everything went wrong.  

Evil began in the human world from the first human ancestor's family.

Humanity experienced a loss of God, the expulsion of the angelic world, the loss of the perfect world of creation and the loss of the value and love of humankind.  This all occurred through an unprincipled union of a man and woman in Adam's family.

All religions show a way to individual salvation, especially Christianity, but they do not represent perfection.

This is just a rudimentary form of salvation that is just the beginning, the very first step on the road to complete spiritual and physical salvation.  

The goal of salvation has family salvation as its unit; individual salvation is the beginning.  These families can lead the world and bear responsibility even for world salvation.  

Our life of faith should have the highest ideal of realizing families with such a realm of heart is firmly established.

The Restored Family Was to Be Realized by Jesus

What was Jesus' main purpose for being born?

He came to establish a true family centered on God.

This history of salvation from Cain and Abel to Jesus is the history of restoration.

This is where those who are sick need to be healed.  Jesus came in order to save fallen people and open  a pathway directly to heaven.  

What is salvation?  Since the family was destroyed, it must be restored.

How do we restore the fallen family?  We must return to the original position that was lost because the original family was destroyed.  

Humankind is sick and needs healing.

God absolutely conducts Himself according to principles and laws.

Since Adam was lost, he must be recovered from the satanic world.  Adam had the responsibility to dominate and possess Eve, but he failed his role as a husband and she was taken by Satan.

Thus, she must be recovered from the satanic world.

Will this be done easily without a struggle?

God worked throughout the ages to lay family, religious and national foundations to restore Adam and Eve.

He established Joseph's and Zechariah's families.  

Then if Jesus, who was from Joseph's family and John the Baptist from Zechariah's family had united, God's will would have been fulfilled in a short time.

What if John the Baptist would not have questioned later on that Jesus was the one they were looking for and followed him?

Also, what if Jesus was to receive Zachariah's daughter as a bride and they start a true family with God's direct blood lineage reversing the sinful blood lineage on earth?  Jesus would have become True Father bearing True Children of God's blood lineage.

Then the will of God would have been fulfilled.

Such fundamental facts such as these are immediately opposed by Christians.  They cry and argue over it.  But it will be to no avail.

Those who oppose these facts will realize that this is the truth when they pass on to the spirit world.

God planned for Adam and Eve to achieve unity as substantial father and mother and complete the perfection of a family of love, which is God's ideal of creation.

God did not create this world to be full of evil, struggle and broken families.  To conceive of such an ideal for a perfect God is hurtful to the work of restoring the world.

Yet, since this was not accomplished, Jesus had to come in order to complete it.

Jesus came as the bridegroom to receive his bride.  Then, if the Israelites  had united with God and restored the position of the perfected Adam in the Garden of Eden and bonded in that love, then nobody could have made them repeat the Fall.

What was God's will?

It was for Adam and Eve to establish the standard of perfection of man and woman and establish God's family based on love.  Was this accomplished in Adam and Jesus' time?

God's family was not established.

Jesus understood and believed in this aspect of God's will.  But because the Jewish people could not follow and believe that Jesus was the son of God, Israel's four-thousand year foundation for Jesus collapsed.

Therefore, Jesus died a miserably death on the cross as God's second path toward only half salvation - spiritual not physical.  Even Jesus lost his physical body to Satan, but brought spiritual salvation to earth.

If death was God's first and only choice, Jesus would have gladly went the way of the cross, instead he asked God if it was His will to let this cup pass and he lamented to forgive them for they know not what they do.

If the Jewish people accepted Jesus and God's will, he would have lived to start a family and pass on God's true blood lineage through true children.  Followers would have been able to engraft to Jesus' true blood lineage and start true families.  Heaven on Earth would follow thereafter.

Through the cross, Jesus lost his physical body to Satan, but was able to bring spiritual salvation to mankind.  This was not God's original intention for bringing Jesus to that time.

Until now, who has been able to truly understand this heart-wrenching situation?

No one!

Since this is the case, how glad Jesus must be to witness this being taught for the first time.

Without Jesus' family being established, the will of God remained unfulfilled.

Without a God-centered family carrying God's pure blood lineage, neither the nation nor the world could be restored.

As a bridegroom, Jesus must find his bride.

This is the reason Jesus' mission must be returned to this earth to center the providence on one man that true parents, true couples and true siblings can emerge.

This will be decisively fulfilled through the prophesied Marriage of the Supper of the lamb in the Last Days.

Only One Path to Heaven on Earth

As people of faith what should we focus our lives upon?

God's love, God's life and God's lineage.  These three roots are the standard we should live by.

What should we be grateful for?

You must be grateful for bearing the cross.

You thought that winning would become smooth and nice, only to find you have to bear a bigger cross.

Who will make the funeral arrangements of a defeated army?  Who will train them and turn them into a regular army?

Also, if there is nothing to eat, what should be done?  Should they just be killed off or placed in prison?

Your time will come only after you have resolved this conflict and have rebuilt it.

You can live happily only after you have established a new family that is centered on God.  A new nation and a new world of peace.

How is there any true settlement in a world of chaos?

If there is a way to the eternal world, which is the original good hometown, it may be difficult but this same gauge must be the way of your life on earth.  It must be the same as the way going to the spirit world.

If you examine your lifestyle, do you think that your current life is the same as the railway in the spirit world?  Can you run straight to God's heart just as you are in your fallen state?

True Parents(the Messiah and Pure Wife) who reverse the fallen lineage of the first fallen parents who disobeyed God are needed in order to make the railway the same.

.

Our connection with True Parents is destiny

Human beings are one hundred percent foolish, except God.

God is more than one hundred percent wise.  He is our friend, our ancestors in the infinite spirit world our companions and supporting army.


I am grateful to think about this.  I know very well the feeling of taking risks on the frontline, like the time David stood in front of Goliath. It is the feeling of courage and confidence. If I fight a hundred wars, I can win a hundred wars because God is protecting me.  I have actually become this kind of person because I thought all along, "If you hit me, it is you rather than I who will be shattered." Just as God raised me like this, I have the responsibility to raise you this way.



This is why you must inherit the destiny to become a wise person through the teachings of God's word.

This is not a task which you acquired, but it is your destiny.  Our destiny is to be perfected and engraft to the bloodline of the True Parent.  This fact does not change for eternity.  No one, not even the President or richest man in the world can separate from this destiny.

We must go this path for a thousand years.  Even ten thousand years.

There are not two ways toward the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth, a world of peace: only one way.  There is no other method or some secret way.  We all must walk this path.

We must carry out our responsibilities

What must we do to enter the 12 pearly gates of the spirit world?

The main question is how many people can we rescue from Satan's grip on earth and help become heavenly citizens before we enter the spirit world.

 We must shed blood, sweat and tears based on the heart of true love for the sake of recreation.  In order to bring  your own people to the heavenly kingdom, you must invest a higher heart than that of satanic parents, husband, wife and children while walking the course of shedding blood, sweat and tears.

You lay conditions that will enable you to come close to God and to rise to a position of glory in the spirit world based on the number of people you have rescued from Satan and return to God.

Father Moon speaks about his own bloody path toward laying a foundation for world restoration:

"Throughout my life, I have lived not only for the nation but also for the world. Why? Even those who are in the spirit world should receive benefits from True Parents.  On the first of February, while I was in Danbury prison, I conducted a ceremony to open the gates of hell and heaven. I had to prepare everything for opening those gates.

This is why I also had to go to prison(equivalent to Jesus going to prison). In this way, I have to go through great suffering and pain and climb over the hill of bitter sorrow.  No matter how vast the ocean, I must swim across it.

No matter how high the mountains, I have to cross over them, even if they are the snow-covered Himalayas and I have to walk with bare feet. In the same way, I established all the foundations for victory by reaching beyond the misery of history itself.

I went through a path of suffering so great that the devil himself could not follow me, and so he had to fall away."


Reverend Sun Myung Moon

In your own homes, your own sons and daughters hold a solemn position as a second God.

The grandfather and grandmother represent the past on behalf of God.  The mother and father represent the present age, and the sons and daughters represent the future.

We should serve these representatives of the three ages as past, present and future manifestations of God.  Those who deceive their children, their wives, their husbands and deceive their parents will go to hell.

The family, nation, and heaven and earth are supposed to be linked through the core of love that lives for the sake of others.

This is the kind of love which one invests even his life and forgets about it by living for others.

There is no other way.  To see a heavenly world of peace, we must restore many people that have a high standard of heart that is connected with such a core of love.

This is the secret to accomplishing the unification of the country of North and South Korea, which is the last puzzle piece to world restoration.

When you go to another nation, you must devote all of your efforts for that nation, as if you were unifying your own country, so it does not fall behind other nations.

You should offer that nation first to heaven.

The Old Testament Age, all possessions and things were offered; the New Testament Age, sons and daughters were offered through sacrifice.

Now, we are in the Completed Testament Age, restored couples are sacrificed.

The Fall severed our direct connection to God's sinless blood lineage.  We served Satan and separated from God.  We should now bring God and connect everything back together.  Your possessions are not your own.

Possessions correspond to the Old Testament Age, and sons and daughters correspond to the New Testament Age.

Things were sacrificed in the Old Testament Age to pave the road for the sons and daughters.  Today, the returning Lord, or True Parents, has suffered in order to bring God to this earth.

Since humanity served and brought Satan to earth, we ourselves must bring God back to earth and serve him.  We should link to God through true love and be acknowledged as possessions of God.

When these are connected to true love, you will then be connected to the age of children's possessions again.  Then these will be distributed for ownership to mother, father and children.

Return for Tomorrow's Post: Unity Arises From Love

This post was rewritten and derived from, True Parents and Us from Cheon Seong Gyeong 

True Love Most Valuable to God

Why is it that everyone has a yearning to return to their birthplace?  Everyone has a desire to restore their memory of the place they first received love from the family when they were young.

Hometown is a synonym for Love-town. 

When your parents grow old and die, you will visit their grave site even if you feel sad and lonely.  You will feel nostalgia and will return again and again.  It is the memory of love that pulls you back to that place.

Why did God give us five senses?

Through each of our senses, we can feel true love.  Our eyes wish to shed tears at seeing true love.  When there is true love, there is no boredom to be found.  You always want to see and hear more and more true love.

When you are surrounded by true love, all of your senses are filled with joy.  Your whole body is a chunk of true love.  If you burst into pieces after you roll down the Himalayas, you do not burst as an individual, but it is the center of true love that is bursting.

God is almighty so that He can protect true love and keep it intact. 

No one can accuse God of ever misusing His power, because He only uses it for the purpose of true love.  When you represent the center of true love, the entire universe will come to protect you because you are the most precious entity in the cosmos.

Nothing is more precious to Him than that.

If there was a chance that true love was shattered into pieces, God would reassemble it into something better.  He would probably hold tight onto it because there is nothing more precious to Him than true love.

The only reason for the existence of the universe is the central theme of true love.

A lot of women look in the mirror every morning, wash their face and wear something nice that will make them even more beautiful.  They do this because it is their inherent nature to want to be presented as beautiful and liked by others.  So, they present themselves in the best way to embrace other people.

What is the power or energy that inspires us to look our best?  I think it is the drive of central true love.

Most people today just exist from day to day like vegetables without thinking of central true love.  This is the most tragic kind of life.  How can one interact and live without love?

Our God-given original nature is always trying to move toward the center of true love, but wickedness in the world tries everything in its limited power to block us from receiving it.

Every human has a conflict between their good nature and their satanic power.  Everyone tries desperately to be happy in their own environment, but they just can't maintain true happiness.  Therefore, people just go about their day just existing and become vegetables.

These people can be likened to thousands of fish caught in a series of nets in the ocean.  They see the net in front of them and think if they can waddle their way out of it they can be happy.  Yet, they do not see the series of nets laid out before them.

It is heartwrenching to watch the struggle of that first net.  But if they can make a titanic leap across all of these nets, then there is hope for him.

Therefore, the only way to happiness is to jump over all that is blocking the path to true love.  If a fish wants to be free from the obstacles, he must think about jumping up toward God's direction instead of trying to break through each net one by one.

He may think that such a leap is impossible, but then he notices a line that is thrown in every once in a while.  All the others may be nonchalant about seeing this line, but other awakened fish get excited and grab the line as it passes overhead.

What if this line passes over just once in a century, or once in a millennium?  Then, if you miss the opportunity, you would have to wait one hundred or thousands more years.

The Messiah is this hope - that rope.

What kind of rope can liberate you totally from the satanic world?

The messianic rope alone can bring you out in one stroke. A minister offers a rope which presents some hope, with the power to bring you across one fence, but still you will not make it all the way. You need an extraordinary jump which will carry you all the way outside the nets. Is it selfish to think in these terms?

The Jews waited thousands of years for that lifeline.

Christians have waited 2, 000 years for it.  Unfortunately, that line has come, but we are all chained by the world that holds us down.  We can see it or reach it.  So, even if we were to grab that rope, there is a heavy chain linked to the sinful world that prevents us from lifting off.  This is the spiritual victory we must win.

It is impossible to break through all of those nets alone.   What if you did not jump high enough to catch the rope? You would have to wait another millennium until that lifeline passed again.

Therefore, we must liquidate the chains that holds us to the past, and old habits so we can catch this rope and lift our  ancestral line with us.  How do we catch this ride in order to restore our fallen lineage?

First, you must cleanse yourself ideologically.

How purified is your thinking?

Have you ever quieted your mind so you can see the kinds of thoughts that dwell there?

Is it central true love or is it mixed with impure thoughts?

There are many -isms in the world today, just like a department store full of things to buy.  The only person who can monitor your brain is you, so, check what kind of -ism lives there.

Only you truly knows how true or false you are.  You know who you are and what are the habits and -isms you have.  Everyone knows what goes through their brain.

Since you know where you are, when you go to spirit world you have no excuse for not working for true love. 

Medical science can record your heartbeat and the electrical functioning of your brain. In the same way, you cannot hide from spirit world because they know exactly what you are. What's in your mind.  Everything is in the open in spirit world.  Nothing is hidden.

When you see this kind of standard of central true love and you compare it to your reality there is no reason that we should loftily think that we have earned our place in heaven.

Do you really think you have earned heaven?

Our goal in life is to find the center of true love.  Can you do this quietly or will you want to advertise it and let the whole world be shakened by this truth?  Of course, you would be controversial and let the universe know.

The greatest of all searches in history is the search for true love, in all corners of the earth. 

You must let the universe know, only then will you have a hope of finding it.  This is the quickest way to true love.  

Reverend Sun Myung Moon who gives these speeches explains this further:

When I made a stir in Korea, the whole nation was shaken, and now all Asia is shaking. People called me names and made incredible accusations, and in the midst of that I could hardly believe that people were still following me.

But the greater the suffering I went through, the greater my following! Even when people tell you not to become a Moonie, you still come.

People even came to see me in prison. The longest line of visitors in history was the group which waited to see me pass down the prison hall. They even stood for 24 hours. I did not speak kindly to those visitors: I demanded to know why they were there instead of out witnessing. 

They replied that they missed me and had no power until they saw me. Tears ran down their faces as we spoke, and the prison officials couldn't understand what was happening. I was not handsome or important-looking, but not only young people but even grandparents and children came to line up and see me.

When you own the center of true love, that is what happens. What is the most colorful street in New York? Have you gone to Times Square to shout out, "I am here to find the center of true love"? You probably think people will look at you strangely. 

If you are embarrassed and concerned about all the old things but insist that you want the center of true love, will you find it? Why can't we just live quietly and behave like normal people and still have the center of true love?"



The person who sees many wicked things and hears wicked sounds, who has many things to say but is patient and waits, and who has the experience of suffering and persevering through incredible circumstances, that person deserves true love.

Do you look for love in a peculiar area or in an ordinary area?  You should know that true love is not easy to come by.

Who, then is the center of love?

God has witnessed many atrocities by humanity here on earth, but still He has hope that His dream ideal world can be built.  He has never lost that infinite hope for our future.  Has anyone else carry such conviction for thousands of years?

This is how we realize He is the center of true love.

Even though God is the subject and center of love, there are many layers of fences surrounding it.  God has become a prisoner through the barriers humanity has created.

Still, through all of this time, He has been patient and withstood His lonely and painful circumstances.  

If you want to reach God, you have to run a sort of obstacle course around all of those fences.

It is not easy.  You may feel overwhelmed by peoples' negativity.  But in that moment you can immediately think of God's situation.  Think of all of the people who have cursed God.  Did He get mad or kill them?

God was patient in the most heartbreaking moments of human history.  So, you should be stronger than God in receiving their hostility.  When you talk about tears and your trials, do not forget how patient God has been and how He has suffered.

How would you talk about just your own position in the work of restoration without thinking of His?  When you think of God in the process of restoring humanity, you will see that He is always ahead of you.

Return for Tomorrow's Post: History Going Toward Good

This post was derived and rewritten from the speech Liquidation and Blessing

We Were Created to be Perfect, Not Fallen

Our ultimate goal is the erection of the Kingdom of God right here on earth: the family of God. Each person is like a brick needed to create the foundation of the family. 

Each member should dedicate their all to be part of the foundation of that family.  Together, we must all be able to create one family on earth, which is under complete dominion of God.

Our homework as all women representing the Eve position and all men the Adam position, to unite under the grace, protection and love of the Messiah who is in the father role.  You should feel to the bone that you belong to the family of God and live together with the true family of God at the Second Coming.

The true family cannot be created unless God intervenes and becomes the center.  This we should feel to our core.

God is the binding force of my own family. 

So, too, God must become the binding force of the heavenly family made up of the True Parents and you.
You must become true sons and daughters belonging to the True Parents. We should not come and dwell in your hearts as a concept, but as a natural part of your life. You don't have to explain spring, do you?

You know when spring is here; you feel it. In the same way, down in your flesh and bones, you must feel united with the True Parents as one family.

Then God becomes the binding force that brings together the heavenly family which is made up of True Parents and you.  True Parents come in the Last Days to restore the ideal of creation which was lost due to the first parents Adam and Eve.

The True Parents should dwell in your hearts and become part of your life.  The most important factor to become a member of this heavenly family is to fully realize that you are the son an daughters of God.

In other words, you should be able to say, "I am completely separated from the satanic world and perfected in the sight of God. I stand in your sight, Heavenly Father, as your son or daughter without shame, with pride.".

We talk about the fall of man often, but what is the fall and what are fallen children?

Fallen children do not feel in reality that they are God's children and He is their father.  They do not have the concept of God.

You must have the following realization and awakening: "I have been born again. I have a new life. I belong to True Parents. Through the power of the True Parents, I am now engaging in a new life. I am God's son; I am God's daughter.".

You must feel that realization down to the bone.

The second realization you must feel that you are a qualified citizen of the Kingdom of God.

Third, when you see the nation, and the world, you must feel the grace of God and think, "God has given this world to me as His inheritance.  I am entitled to claim this world as the son or daughter of God.".

It is an important task for members to know these realizations and awakenings: first recognize you are the son and daughters of God; second, realize you are the citizen of the Kingdom of God; and third, the world of creation is an inheritance from God. God has given all these things as blessings to the children of God.

The individual with these realizations is headed for perfection. 

The person who knows this becomes entitled and qualified as a member or the center of the heavenly family. There are two distinct worlds in our way of life that exists.

The other world is full of people that are suffering and it is crumbling.  As citizens of the Kingdom of God, you must be in the position to influence the other world and not fall victim of the fallen world.

Our mission is to bring those in the other world back to God so we can expand God's territory.  

You may have noticed that what seems to look good on the outside in the fallen world or right crumble, decay and decline.

There is no comparison between the good that is in the satanic world and the poor condition inside the world of goodness.  Even though in the heavenly family things and situations may look poor and meager, later, that family will be blessed, will flourish and prosper.  Instead of being dominated by the satanic world, we should be in the position to influence it.

What is the secret to restoring and influencing the heavy secular world?

The way people live in the satanic world is completely opposite of the way people of faith live since we are moving toward reorganization of the true family on the world level.

It is obvious that those in the satanic world live a life that is destined to destroy the true family structure. In any family, the parents and children are divided.  The parents say to the children when they reach a certain age to go out on their own and be independent.  In that world, the parents are for themselves; the children are for themselves; and the grandchildren are for themselves.

The members of the family are completely divided.

On the contrary, those in the heavenly world set a tradition to see that all members of the family come together.  The grandfather and grandmother give their children their tradition and way of life as an inheritance. The father and mother, in turn, hand down the tradition they received to their children who are the grandchildren of the grandparents.

Let's look at Adam's family. God is in the grandparent's position to Adam's family, Adam and Eve are the parents, and the children of Adam and Eve are in the children's position. We are born as children. We grow into adulthood, and then we give birth to children. Later we become older and become grandparents. That's the way we become perfect or complete.

When every family of grandparents, parents and children come together and live this heavenly tradition through the three stages of formation, growth, and perfection/completion, they will truly represent those families.

The true way for Adam and Eve's family was to be organized in three vertical levels with God as the grandfather.  Then all the human race would be organized in a similar pattern on the horizontal level if Adam and Even had not fallen and became perfect after maturity.

Then their true family would be the center of the entire heavenly family and heavenly universe.

Externally, Adam and Eve were to be the physical parents to their children. 

God is invisible in spirit.

God's ideal of creation was for God to become a visible being through Adam and Eve.  They were to be the visible form of God's image.  The walking God, the tangible God would be the dwelling place of God.  Their mind or spirit would be the inner temple.  With God dwelling in them spiritually, they were to be in God's position in front of their children as True Parents.

In order for this to be achieved, Adam was to be perfected as an individual once he matured and united together with God as one.  Also, Eve was to receive God and be united into oneness with Him.  When these two perfected individual unite together with the power of love as the binding force, there is a mutual unity between the external and the internal.

Why did God create the universe and create man?  

In this creation, God wanted to be in a position to exercise His own love through an object to which He could give His love.  If this becomes the case, then perfected Adam's family and all of mankind would not have fallen and brought sin in the world through uniting with the archangel.

We would have inherited the direct sinless lineage of God as our substantial father.

While we are on earth, we represent Adam and Eve.  When they are perfected here on earth, then automatically the Kingdom of God in heaven will be elevated to perfection living like God for eternity.

The Kingdom of God on earth is where qualified, perfected Adam-type parents are produced.  

After their perfection here on earth, they automatically enter into the Kingdom of God in heaven and be elevated in perfection there.

Who wants to dwell in the Kingdom of God on earth and the Kingdom of God in heaven.  It is human destiny and desire to create the perfect Kingdom of God here on earth.  We all wish for a day where we can live in a world of peace.

The order of business to acquire heaven on earth is to build the first family of perfection through the Messiah's Second Coming.  These Adam-type parents of perfection would be known as the True Parents.  You must know how precious and valuable it is to be able to receive the True Parents in our time.

It was not God's desire to wait thousands of years for the coming of the True Parents.

In order to create the Kingdom of God here on earth, we need True Parents in the center as Adam and Eve who were supposed to be the True Parents of mankind. 

Because the first parents failed to fulfill God's purpose of creation, humanity was never able to see True Parents.  Only the Messiah knows how to erect the Kingdom of God on earth.

Jesus was to build the Kingdom of God on earth through his own family, but had to go through the second route of death at the cross because no one believed in him in his time.

What is the clear definition of "Kingdom of God here on earth"?  It is the place where everyone live with the True parents' family and become True Parents' children.  The Kingdom of God in heaven is the place where you live in eternity with Heavenly Father and the eternal parents.

If Adam and Eve had not fallen, they would  naturally would have terminated their life here on earth before their own children.  Instead, their son was murdered.  When Adam and Eve died, did they go to Heaven?  The Garden of Eden portrayed in the Bible was symbolic of Heaven on Earth.  After they fell, God kicked them out to live in the fallen realm they had created along with the archangel.

Adam and Eve were to become the first two people to be elevated to the Kingdom of God in heaven.

They would become True Parents, naturally. If Adam and Eve had not fallen, they would have become the first two persons elevated to the Kingdom of God in heaven. There they would have occupied the throne of God, since even in the spirit world God is invisible.

In spirit world, you do not only have the heavenly father you also have the heavenly father after the Messiah has restored the mistake of fallen Adam and Eve through his own family.

We do not have regeneration or multiplication if we do not have both father and mother.

If we are the image of God, then as men and women they both are the outer form of the dual characteristics that are within God.  Jesus came and was the first man to restore the position of True Adam on earth.  If the people of Israel had fulfilled their position and believed and accepted Jesus, he would have a bride that would have fulfilled the position of True Eve.  She would be the first True Daughter of God.

The father and mother become one and together represent the full image of God. Actually, the father and mother who are elevated into the Kingdom of God in heaven first would become the king and queen of the world.

Three Stages of Judgement

"I humbly ask you to be the poor in spirit; I ask you to be the meek, and I ask you to become those who hunger and thirst for righteousness. Then we will all see the Kingdom of Heaven, and we shall all be satisfied. Now let us begin."

Christians, and Christianity itself, have a final hill to cross.


The Bible prophesize about the end of the world and that we must face judgement of fire on the great and terrible day of the Lord.  On this day, we are to see many great phenomena as the end comes near.  Jesus promised the people that he was to return at this time.

Since the day Jesus ascended into heaven, Christians have been watching for his return to earth.  To this day, Christians are becoming tired of waiting for this extraordinary event to occur.  Some have decided that this even will not happen literally as they wait for this event to possibly clear away all the problems in the world automatically.  They came to think, "This is just one of God's methods to keep us alert and faithful."

Other religions also have predicted their own version of the end of the world.  Yet, no one can clearly define what this end of the world is going to be.  Each makes their own determination based on the denomination and religion they practiced.  There should be a universal understanding of this time when the Lord will reappear and bring his fire of judgement upon the earth.


God never created this world with the intentions to destroy it for any reason, but intended for the world of goodness to last forever.  How can we profess God is an almighty God, but then say this God will bring down a judgement upon his own children and destroy those who do not follow him and the earth He created?    He definitely did not create it to be weak enough to be destroyed by an archangel.

What is meant by 'the end of the world' in the bible is the end of the evil, satanic soverenignity which satan began.  God intended for a world of goodness to be established and remain forever, not evil.  His children became creatures of evil.  This is


Beginning of Judgement by Fire

Adam and Eve fell in the garden of Eden. They were not at that time in a position to have a full understanding of the will of God. 

In the beginning, God created everything and after creating woman, He said it was good.  Sin did not exist at this time.

God had instructed Adam and Eve to not eat of the fruit, which symbolized the sexual organs.  The WORD has been referred to many times in the Bible as fire.  This is the fire, the word, which Jesus is to bring upon his return in our time. The judgement of fire is God's word.  Adam and Eve were confronted with two opposite words.

The first was from God.  Obedience to God's word would have brought about a good world based on Adam and Eve's good family connected directly to God's lineage without any trace of sin.The other was from Lucifer who told them to eat so their eyes will be open and they could become their own god which brought about the fallen evil world.  When Adam and Eve were confused, they made the wrong choice.   God's good world ended at that moment they connected their sexual organs without God's consent.

Our first parents sowed seeds of evil.  Adam and Eve were to grow into maturity and then be blessed directly by marriage to God, yet satan stole them before their maturity and made an evil harvest.

We must become very clear about this so we ourselves will not repeat the fall in our own lives and return in the right direction.

The last days, the sheep and the goat will be separated.  The difference between these two animals are clear.  The sheep recognize they have a master and follow while the goat do not follow the shepherd.

Today the world is divided into two major camps: the democratic world which says, "There is a God' and the communist world which says "God does not exist".  In this time there is open immorality where unchaste love runs rampant.  Satan uses love as a weapon.

One must be equipped with a greater, more righteous love in order to conquer Satan.

Satan is always trying to trick people with cheap love. But heavenly love is beautiful and constructive in its sacrificial giving. Satan's love is unreliable and will last only a short time, but heavenly love is eternally unchanging.


Father Moon main core teaching is on how the misuse of love brought about this evil world.  He speaks deeply about it:

"America is facing the last days right now and we can see two extremes of love in this country: the carnal, dirty love of free sex and the deep rooted, heavenly love now being proclaimed by righteous people. Secular love and heavenly love are confronting each other here in America. As the scope of satanic love becomes greater there will be more destruction. Families will break up; people will become corrupted; life will become
miserable, and more people will commit suicide. But as heavenly love expands, our lives become richer.

There is a line of judgement separating these two worlds of love, and you must stand on either one side or the other. You can not be in both.

The last days is the time for dividing good and evil, which are becoming steadily more confused. Even the most faithful believer in Jesus or the most righteous church on earth cannot proclaim proudly that they are absolutely separated from Satan and sin and that they are following Jesus exactly as he would have them do.

No one can say they are living in perfect love in an ideal world with no suffering and tears. No church and no Christian could say such a thing.

This means that Satan exists within the churches as everywhere else; also, there is sin there as in the rest of the world. If this is true and if what church people love and hate is no different from what the rest of the world loves and hates, then there is very little difference between the world and the church. Which would Satan find more pleasure in the church or the world?

Satan likes the sins of the church more, because based upon them he can protest to God, "Look at those people in the church -- they don't love others; they even hate others! They are not faithful, either. This must be my church."

If the churches remain this way, they will decline into nothing at the time of the last days, along with the evil, secular world. This is the way of God; He will judge such churches before the judgement of the rest of society.

What really surprised me when I first came to America was the way Americans used the names of Jesus Christ and God as an exclamation -- not to praise them, but to put them in the worst position. I wondered what people meant when they said, "Jesus Christ!" and I realized that they were describing something bad.

What led to this kind of custom? What do the best words imaginable have to do with the worst things that can happen to people?

Have you sometimes observed that certain Christians may be worse than people of the secular world? Those who claim they believe in God may actually be worse than those who don't -- they are more egotistical, less loving and giving, etc.

The American nation is founded upon Judeo-Christian principles, yet Americans have become very individualistic. Was Jesus an individualistic person?

How did Americans come to be so egotistical and individualistic when Jesus had nothing of a self-centered nature? We can come to the simple conclusion that if people really believed in Jesus they would not have become like that.

Instead of believing in Jesus for Jesus' sake and for God's sake, some people believe in him for their own benefit. In other words, they use Jesus and God for their own sake. What do you think about this?"



Then, what does the end of the world mean? 

"Just what is going to end? Evil is going to end. God will put an end to all evil. Out of God's new beginning will come a new opportunity for the human race. And the goodness God intended in His original ideal can be made real.

What will Jesus do when he comes? Will he come to wipe out the world?

The word "judgement" is frequently misunderstood to mean that God will wipe out everything in anger. Wrong.  That is not the purpose of the Messiah's coming. The whole purpose is to fulfill the ideal that was left undone in the garden of Eden, to work for individual, family, social, national and world perfection. Judgement is the constructive work of God to see the fulfillment of the Kingdom of God here on earth.

In the garden of Eden Adam and Eve fell into evil instead of developing their goodness. They was subjugated by Satan and became the children of sin.

Therefore the Bible says, "You are of your father the devil". John 8:44

If the fall had not occurred, then the true ruler would be God. But He is not today the King of this universe, because Satan is sitting upon God's throne. God has to remove all results of the human fall before He can truly reign over the world.

Now, the end of the world is the moment in history when God ends this history of evil and begins His new age. It is the crossroads of the old history of evil and the new history of good."SMM


Three Stages of Judgement

In the Principle, there are three stages of judgment: judgment of the truth, judgment of character, and judgment of heart, because the fall violated these three things.

To teach this way of restoring the world back to its original position we must first teach ourselves.  The parents should first practice and then teach first.  We should be teachers of the Principle and not be caught BY the Principle.  We must become the embodiment of the Principle teaching.

When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your own pleasures.

You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the world means enmity against God?  

Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God. Or do you think Scripture says without reason that he jealously longs for the spirit he has caused to dwell in us?  

But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says:

“God opposes the proud
    but shows favor to the humble.”

 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil,and he will flee from you.Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.  Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom.  Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.

James 4:3-10


In order to  go through the restoration process of going fully back to God, we each must have a face-to-face battle with satan.  If we do not make a condition of indemnity to pay back the wrongs of the past, the satan will pull and say, "it is mine".  We must establish a foundation of faith and put His words into action in order to go back to God.

Because we were born with Satan's blood, we must take out our blood and throw it away. 

Religion teaches us to fast, to hit the body, do whatever it takes to bring the body into submission. and conquer it.  Satan uses the body to do his evil while God dwells in our mind.  Jesus' body was hit for our in.  Yet, he has returned to bring the word to bring humanity to complete salvation of the body, not just the spirit.

Then what did Jesus leave for us? He gave us his blood and flesh. You must become the person who represents Jesus.

In the past, when the followers of Jesus were praying to meet Jesus, they had to make effort for at least seven years, day and night.

Without doing that, they couldn't meet Jesus. However, in these days if you make effort for seven days, you can meet the Teacher. No matter what the problem may be, if you make effort for seven days with fasting,

The road that we walk based on the teachings of the Completed Testament, we must understand how har of a road, how much blood was shed to bring this truth to the earth.  Jesus had the knowledge o f the Completed Testament, but because his disciples could not understand the time of their visitation and could not understand the teachings of Jesus, he had to return to give it to the people of our time.

We must ultimately follow God through this course of indemnity, but not centered on ourselves.  We should raise our standard by doing fasting, prayer and conditions to separate us from the temptations of satan.

Among you, those who have finished 7-day fast, raise your hands. To those who did not experience one week fasting, you do not know the feeling on the seventh day, thirty minutes before midnight.

By experiencing a fasting condition, one can become connected closer to God and experience part of his suffering on the road to bring restoration to the world.  If we truly want to believe in the cross, we must substantially walk the road of the cross and  turn God's will and words into their daily actions.

Those who do not know the heart of God must stand as the incarnation of God.

Messiah in the Millennium

We can see many things in the parables which are told in the bible when we look at them as more than just a story on the surface and more than just a lesson for those of that modern time.  When we see the messages and representation of each parable, a whole world of mystery is unlocked when it comes to the Bible.

There was a man who had two sons. He went to the first and said, ‘Son, go and work today in the vineyard.’  “‘I will not,’ he answered, but later he changed his mind and went.  “Then the father went to the other son and said the same thing. He answered, ‘I will, sir,’ but he did not go.  “Which of the two did what his father wanted?”“The first,” they answered.


Matthew 21:28-31


Jesus said to them: 

“Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God ahead of you.  For John came to you to show you the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors and the prostitutes did. And even after you saw this, you did not repent and believe him."

Even though Jesus said this to his own people over two thousand years ago, it may apply to the religious and people of faith to this day.  When we look at the surrounding synagogues and religious leaders and we see who actually followed Jesus to a certain point in his life, which was more likely the ones prepared to follow the Messiah in his time?  

As Jesus told those who thought they held a high position in front of others to God, the believers were the very people he said were not qualified to enter heaven.  Even people told Jesus that he was a blasphemer for not washing his hands, not observing the Sabbath and living and working among the uncleaned.  In their eyes, they were the judge, ruler and all over who was to enter the kingdom of heaven.  

This parable warns us not to be judges of other's heart.


Heaven on Earth in 7 Years

God had prepared for the Second Coming to bear fruit through the Second World War.  He had intended that Christianity as the bride culture to be the center of His will to totally unite the Allied countries of America, England and France.  This unity would have brought the Kingdom of God on earth through this victory and God's Kingdom would spread all over the world.

The Divine Principle teaches that these allied countries were equivalent to the God-like mind or an Abel and the enemy countries of Japan, Germany and Italy were like the fallen, sinful body or a Cain (who murdered his God-like brother).  Within seven years from 1945, if the world had united after World War II the Kingdom of God would have been established.

This is what is forseen in Revelations of the marriage Supper of the Lamb.  The messiah would come to bring God's original blessing of marriage which removes the fallen, sinful blood lineage which we currently inherit from our fallen parents and pass on generation to generation.

Based on such families where sin is eradicated through the blessing marriage of the Messiah, would be sent out all over the world to build the Kingdom of God on earth and it would have been a piece of cake.

Therefore, centering on this Christian culture, absorbing and digesting the satanic, secular culture would have been easy.  Instead, we chose the opposite way, the satanic way and communism was thus born.

But, because of the failure of Christianity right after World War II, democratic countries such as America have been used as a kind of base for communist propaganda and all kinds of secular crimes, such as sexual, drug and juvenile problems. All kinds of social problems are rampant all over the world that wasn't on the societal level until after World War II because of the failure at that time for the nations to unite.

God had blessed America as the central country as the tool to build the Kingdom of God on earth, but as we observe in our society today, it is the total opposite of God's will.  Now, America has become the source of all kinds of evils and social evils all over the world.

Therefore Reverend Moon from the beginning, right after World War II, has been standing alone to fight against this evil force from the individual level, family level, and worldwide level.

All kinds of opposition and persecution have been there; however, Father overcame all those stages of opposition and persecution and right now the time has come that the world is welcoming Reverend Moon with both arms.


The Beginning of Hell

Of course it was a human tragedy that Adam and Eve fell away from God. Then at the time of Jesus Christ, who came as the messiah, mankind betrayed him and lost him; that was another tragedy.

God faced the tragedy of Adam and Even and walking from His true direction.  Another tragedy was when mankind betrayed Jesus Christ by not following his path.  The worst tragedy God suffered was to watch the second messiah reject the True Parents who reversed Adam and Eve's mistake.  Humanity rejected, persecuted him.  America, Korea, Japan played a role in opposing and persecuting Father of the Second Coming.

Right after World War II, upon the foundation of the unification of world Christianity, they could have received Father as the king upon their foundation of unity; then from that point on, the whole world could have been unified. However, because of the failure, Father walked his own course from the individual level to the worldwide level, all the way for forty years until now.

One thing Father wants you to remember is since May 1 of this year, which was the fortieth anniversary of the founding of the Unification Church, in seventy days Kim Il Sung passed away.

God had tried to restore Adam and Eve's mistake through their children Cain and Abel.  There were to become filial sons and daughters who followed the true path of God and love their parents in the position of kings and queens naturally.  Instead, we know that Cain could not follow his filial brother Cain disrupting God's way to restore the world through them...He had to wait until a filial son such as Noah was born.

One thing we have to understand, as Father said, right after World War II, centering on Christianity, if the entire world had accepted and welcomed Father as the messiah, Kim Il Sung wouldn't have appeared in the history of mankind, Communism would never have existed if the world naturally through the Christian faith followed.

Kim Il Sung and his son, the Soviet Union and communism is falling at the knees spreading their God-denying beliefs around the world.  Now an opportunity to bring God's kingdom to earth has been established.

Father predicted even earlier that no matter how hard communism may try, before the eighth leader communism would fall. So Gorbachev was the eighth head of state of the former Soviet Union. If you read Father's speech book some time ago Father predicted that.

"It's not a coincidence. Think about it; communism fell within these eight different heads of state and also Kim Il Sung passed away seventy days after May 1 of this year, exactly seventy days. That's the way, when it comes to the history of mankind and history of any providential countries, it doesn't go by random happening; it goes by the formula of history.

If the world had accepted Father as the messiah, savior, right after World War II, a large scale of movement of God-centered families would have taken place across the world. For example, because Father would have blessed in God's direct holy marriage and millions and millions of couples interracially, internationally, and intercontinentally who would follow their spouses and families from one continent to another continent, one nation to another nation, this kind of movement would have taken place all over the world right after the world.

So that way by doing so a new political system and national system would have taken place. In other words, centering on Blessed couples, Blessed families, a new culture and new civilization would have been formed. That was God's plan. But because of the failure right after the world war it didn't take place and it took forty years for Father until today.

Now since communism has declined, Christianity must be united; it doesn't matter, Catholicism or Protestantism, they should be united to chase away all these social evils and crimes.

That's our responsibility.

In other words, the direction of all the minds of the people in the world is now clear towards God, so opposition, opposing power is getting weakened and almost disappearing in the world.

All the horizontal brothers and sisters in the world and all the parents of the world must be united together and start building the Kingdom of God on earth as well as in heaven.

This is the significance of the motto centering on True Parents. Centering on the True Parents, all the Blessed couples will be in the position of object and their children will follow as well. In other words, the time has come that all the people in the world without any exceptions, must receive the marriage Blessing from True Parents.

So what's the meaning of the Completed Testament Age? 

This is the time that God's ideal of love is to be accomplished and perfected by fulfilling our five percent of responsibility on earth. It's like Adam and Eve without falling, in other words doing their five percent of responsibility to perfect themselves and build the perfect family.

When it comes to the Fall of man, we're talking about the fall of the original Adam's family. When you look at the families here, the world here, on the right-hand side heavenly families standing; on the left-hand side satanic families standing, horizontally they are on the same level.

So, in the course of restoration the positions will be changed, like from left to right and from right to left. The elder brother goes in the position of younger brother and the younger brother, as elder brother. This is the time.

Of course there are many super nations, big countries and small countries all over the world, but as long as our fatherland Korea, south and north, is divided into Cain and Abel, the world, all the countries, will be divided into Cain nations and Abel nations. We have been working with North Korea in many different ways, in many different areas since Father's visit there.

Providentially speaking, now the time has come that North Korea must listen to Father, Reverend Moon. That's why Father's birthplace, Jung Ju, will be decorated and developed under the banner of Jung Ju Peace Park. The North Korean government will build a peace park in Father's birthplace.

So therefore, if mankind finds the place where they can build real peace on earth, then the entire world will pay attention to that.

The time has come. Also, the time has come that the intellectuals and scholars, the educated people come to understand that this is the time that beyond cultural, racial, and national barriers, beyond even your traditions and customs and habits centering on Christianity, mankind can find hope to build peace on earth."

Also, as you know Father established his foundation, built his career in helping those starving people, like twenty million people dying of starvation every year. So, Father has been working to save those people for the last twenty years. That has been recorded as his career.

Reverend Moon has focused on the oceanic enterprise preparing for the oceanic era.  He knows the resources in the ocean is just limitless with the abundance of fish laying millions and millions of eggs which we can hatch.

Because of Father's love and effort in these oceanic enterprises to save the people dying in hunger, now even in this country, people who know about the oceanic business have come to trust Father's ability.

So, how can we save those people who are dying of starvation, worldwide, because people are still dying.

When we look at a flourishing country in America where food is wasted and people are dieting to lose weight possibly due to overeating while in other place people are dying every moment.  If God was watching above us would He be happy to witness this event in the world?

Also, have you thought of any country, particularly rich countries like America and other developed countries, do you think they are really coming forward to be responsible to save all those poor countries who are losing thousands and thousands of lives every day because of hunger? They don't even dream.

When we look at the world in a broader sense, do rich countries like America truly try to take responsibility for this unfair distribution of resources and save the poorer countries who lose thousands of brothers/sister and mothers and fathers daily?  They don't even think about it.  Therefore, the term "True Parents" must be a formidable word to the billions and billions of parents who abandon their children who are dying by the millions.

Would a True Parent allow such abuse and neglect? The parents don't let their children die, they don't know how to save them.  From a True Parent's perspective, one cannot understand  why the children cannot be saved when there is plenty of land for animals and ocean where they can produce some type of food resources to save the children.

Surely, if people can live in those regions, then fish and animals can survive there as well as a resource.  Man was meant to be the superior being of creation, so why can't the starving nation find a way to bring fish and animals live abundantly as food supply?  Because they have not been taught the proper way to farm, raise animals, catch fish, hunt or build fish farms.  IT is a simple thought.  If one knows how to do these things such as catch fish and raise animals, would there be a reason to die from hunger?

Last time when Father Moon visited Brazil, he was told that there is one particular swamp area along the borderline between Paraguay and Brazil which is twice as big as the land of Japan. In that particular swamp area there are over 3,600 different species of fish. In that swamp alone, 3,600!

So, think about it, if we can utilize these different species of fish to do fish farming all over the world, where the lakes and rivers are abundant, we can feed the entire humanity. So Father's question is, since we know that we are losing over twenty million innocent lives every year because of starvation, what position should we take?

Should we just watch them die away every day, like forty thousand to sixty thousand people? Even if we starve, we skip our meals, we should do our absolute best to save their lives.

If, as the ratio goes, 200 people as a unit save one person's life every year, the entire five billion people can live together without losing lives because of starvation. Is that an impossible task for mankind? Even though Father's movement has been pouring money into this oceanic enterprise for the last twenty years, it has been losing money.

When organizations invest into such project there has been no profit but constant investing.  This is the same way God has been investing into mankind.  But we have learned through the Divine Principle that God continues to give and give because He does not remember what He has invested for the sake of mankind.

The True Parents as the messiah have silently invested every ounce of energy, material and spiritual power the same way in humanity even though they have denied their existence.  Because of this foundation and tradition, people are starting to bow their heads.

Those who have received the Blessing are to care for the entire mankind before their own family, this is the true way, the godly way.  Instead, the messiah is spearheading the dispensation while the families find that they cannot fully follow his direction without the wife and the children grabbing and holding them back.

What about Father's situation? Look at Father's own situation. While Father is leading, spearheading this entire worldwide movement such as, for example, the American headquarters, they are opening their hands for help from Father.

"Comparing to our own situations, whatever mission we may have, whatever businesses we are in charge of, the burden on Father's shoulders is maybe thousands of times heavier than ours. But, when we are in a difficult situation, instead of trying to help Father, lighten Father's burden, we come forward and ask for help from Father.

That has been our attitude. If that kind of family is in front of you, do you think that family has a future?

Father was told that last year and this year were the most difficult years in Japan. So, they almost lost hope and there was no light whatsoever. Have you really been worried about this kind of miserable situation, just like your own family situation? Have you? Has the entire movement? We must pay attention to that.

Last time when Father was in South America, Father was in a way shocked by imagining that if as much money as has been invested in America, was spent for the sake of South America, what kind of situation could we face today?

There's no racial discrimination. They are not arrogant people. When they see new immigrants coming from foreign countries, instead of discriminating against them, they help them and support them without any racial discrimination.

What about America? American people are so proud as the number one country in the world this is the way that America has been greeting the entire world instead of helping.

Even so, the reason Father has put effort and money into this country, billions and billions of dollars, is because Father knows that the center of Christianity is here in this country, America. That's why Father helped Christianity to be revived and to be restored to change the position from second son(Abel) to elder son(Cain).

The politicians, the media organizations, and scholars from universities all over the world: these are the three major powers which will move the world from now on. Along with these three major powers of the world, if we can inspire high school students and college students, the entire world will start to change. Do you follow?

In other words, once we revive high school kids and college students, this youth problem can be solved. How about now?

Satan has occupied all the youth all over the world, but we have to restore them back.

It doesn't matter what religion you may have been following, whether it's Christianity or Buddhism or whatever, the time for the first generation is gone; the time for the second generation is dawning. When we say second generation we are talking about high school kids and college kids.

That's why before Father left for Korea last time, Father asked you to focus on witnessing to the second generation people, high school students and college students. Don't worry about adults, so called adult people, because tribal messiahs are supposed to witness to them.

If we stick with witnessing to the first generation people all the time, then we will automatically lose second generation people. In other words, we will lose both. But if we stick with witnessing to the second generation people, we will save both first and second.

Do you follow?

When it comes to the course of restoration there is always Cain and Abel relationship; that's the formula. This is the formula for the restoration. Cain and Abel, Mother: this is individual, family, all the way to the eighth level, heaven and earth.

At the time of the Fall of man, centering on Satan and Adam, this mother's position was lost. Therefore, mankind was directed to hell. It's a formula just like in ourselves, where there is a Cain/Abel relationship between mind and body.

In other words, our body which is Cain has been controlling and subjugating our mind who is Abel. But actually it should be the other way around. Expansion of these individual Cain and Abel relationships within ourselves, mind and body, is the world Cain and Abel.

So, the Holy Spirit is in the position of mother. By doing so, the Holy Spirit in the mother's position will restore this Cain and Abel relationship.

The extension of these relationships appeared in World War II between Great Britain, America and France, with France in the position of Cain, America in the position of Abel and Great Britain in the position of mother, or the Holy Spirit.

But this time, instead of making a relationship with Satan and fallen Adam, the mother will unite with God and restored Adam, and naturally mankind will head for the Kingdom of God in heaven. This is on the worldwide scale.

This time the mother figure, the Holy Spirit position, will have to be united, her bridegroom who comes as the messiah naturally will become one with God. In other words, there is no way for anybody to be restored, to be saved again, unless they are born through the Holy Spirit, mother's spirit, again. Fallen humankind is standing in the Abel position.

From there you have to separate into half, and take the mind position. Cain and Abel divide and grow up. Abel grows up more. After that, the position of the elder and younger is exchanged. The authority changes. From there, we can go back to the original position-God's place. This is the formula.

So, that's why, when we look at the world, even in America, the husbands are in the position of archangel, and wives are in the position of mother, Eve's position. In other words, mothers must embrace all the children and restore them through her and eventually restore the husband, who is in the position of archangel to her.

Mostly, because of the wives, in other words, mothers' failure in this country, divorce takes place, because mothers couldn't really offer their love to embrace their children and build a solid family. In other words, the failure of America and free world is mostly because of women, wives.

Many wives and mothers are constantly bugging their husbands; instead of just blindly following True Parents and doing the missionary work or the spiritual work, they say: "Why don't you go to college and graduate school and learn skills so that you can make money?" And they are doing the same thing to their children.

When it comes to following the course of God's dispensation, is there anybody else who is more blindly following God's will than Father himself? (No.) That means that you may think that you have been just following God's will blindly all these years, but when you watch Father, Father is even a million times more blindly following God's will.

Do you think so? Then, after he has done that, did Father fail? (No.) Father has been supporting God's will all these years blindly without any reservation. We have all kinds of excuses.

Even after the Fall of man, Adam added many different excuses: "Oh God, I fell because of Eve." Eve's excuse was:

'God, Adam whom you created, didn't do his responsibility so we failed'. So they didn't admit their own mistake; nobody did. Usually we have a tendency to think: 'Oh well, I did what I could and I was right, but because of somebody else or because of some circumstances, the mistake took place'.

And former enemy countries like Japan, Germany, and Italy initiated World War II; they should become one now and belong to the messiah.

And if those six countries totally become one with the messiah, Rev. Moon, the world can be restored. Suppose you were born fifty years ago, and Rev. Moon came saying "I am the messiah"-would you believe in him as the messiah, 50 years ago?

But now you do not have any choice but believing in Father. Since Father declared Safe Settlement of True Parents and Completed Testament Age, all kinds of significant ceremonies have occurred. No matter what Father may say you understand the wisdom of receiving from Father, so keep your heart open to receive.

But because of the failure of these six countries receiving and welcoming Father as the messiah right after World War II, Father had to stand alone all those years, for forty years. During those forty years, Father had to overcome all the different levels of difficulties and persecutions.

He overcame all the hurdles, and from prison level, one after another, one by one, he was restoring and he came to this level today. Imagine how sad God and True Parents were when they knew that the entire world centering on Christianity should have accepted Father as the messiah of mankind, yet they failed right after World War II.

How sad they were. Can you imagine that? God was alone, think of that. If Father, Rev. Moon, had given up right after World War II, when the opposition took place and the entire world failed in welcoming Father, then God might have abandoned this entire world and started creating a new world and new mankind.

But Father said to God: 'God, please don't worry about it; I will take full responsibility and I will start from scratch again, alone'.

That's why, even if Father was in prison, Father never prayed to God to help him, he never shed tears because of pain. He always told God, 'Father, I am still alive. I will make it all the way through'. That has been Father's promise to God.

Each time Father was in prison he jumped one level and he went up another level. It was zigzag, but he was constantly progressing.

He never doubted. There was no room whatsoever to give any complaints centered on himself. Father was more than confident that he had to take this responsibility to restore back the entire mankind because of the fall of Adam and Eve.

Father prayed that "Of course the entire world is opposing me because of Satan, but even if God opposes me, I will go" because Father knew the course of indemnity. Think about it: Father had to indemnify the 4000 years of history in 40 years.

How difficult it was! These 40 years' course of indemnification ended this year, May 1, that's why Father came up with Safe Settlement of True Parents and Completed Testament Age; it is a great motto.

Perfection must take place on earth, completion, unity between mind and body must take place on earth, here. Of course, there have been millions and millions of different conflicts and battles and wars throughout history, but the final war among mankind is the battle between mind and body.

So, man and woman must be responsible; but we are in a much better situation, because we are taught by True Parents how to fight this war. When it comes to Father's level, Father had to deal with the entire world, all the different religions and nations and people to come up to this point.

But our responsibility is restoring ourselves, I mean, winning the battle between mind and body and establishing our family centered on True Love, and doing tribal messiahship up to 160 families. We can't trust secular people out there, we have to know that. If you give your total trust, you will always be hurt, you'll lose something.

Therefore, we Blessed couples must be united and give total trust to one another. Therefore, our course is clear: we must go through the completion as an individual, family, tribe and nation; we have to go that far-no exception."SMM
