World Peace is Our Responsibility

Are you still waiting for the rapture and for Jesus to return?

Christianity teaches that God's son, Jesus will return in the Last Days for the purpose of restoring the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth as God initially intended.

Through the Divine Principle, which this blog is based upon, we learn that the Lord of the Second Advent will spiritually pioneer the way of the cross and will be victorious where Jesus left off.

This is the difficult part of restoring the world and God's people back to their original positions before the Fall.

Since, the Fall began with the first parents, then True Parents must reverse the mistakes of the Fall.

In all of history, when we look at earth, humankind and heaven, has there been anyone who was able to attend these victorious True Parents(Messiah)?

Heaven, earth and humankind have not been prepared to attend such True Parents who do not carry the trace of the Fall within them.  

Now that we are living in the Completed Testament Age, the position of True Parents have been restored and humanity is being prepared to follow to attend them and God.

Is it just enough to attend the Messiah when he returns?

After attending the parents and reaching perfection, you need to restore your own family, tribe, nation and world. God prepared the people of Israel for the birth of the Messiah as well.

To stand before True Parents as true children, you must accomplish the course of the individual level, family level, tribe, and national-level restoration.

After completing the parents' course of restoration on each level, then the standard of parents and children having become one and victorious is thus established and Satan must leave.

Only after this is accomplished can we conclude the restoration of the national and the global level.

Then, what is the mission of the Unification Church and in what kind of position are you who have joined the church? You have been called into the Unification Church, of which I am the central figure. 

As you walk this path or restoration, you have to develop spiritually and physically what has been a sorrowful six thousand years of vertical history.

Then what is our goal?

We must establish a nation of people who are restored to the True Parents position on a worldwide foundation.  In other words, we must establish the world-level nation of True Parents instead of fallen, satanic parents.  This would be a world of peace.

We must eliminate the remaining sorrow, pain and tears of the world as soon as possible. 

As long as brothers and sisters suffer hunger, pain and suffering, a world of peace will never be found.

This is our responsibility and mission.

This is the path you were meant to follow.  You should not turn and look back either with your heart or with your body as the Israelites did.

This kept them from from following Moses and further delaying God's victory to 40 years with the first generation dying in the wilderness on the way to Cannan.

The Israelites suffered greatly in the desert that they even envied their past life as slaves instead of having faith and believing they could conquer the more established Canaanites.

Therefore, we should have the sincere hope to be able to fully attend the True Parents on the behalf of God.

In attending them, we should not attend them after the conditions and difficult path has been laid and everyone admires and respects them.

Rather, we should desire to attend the True Parents of all history as they pass through this sorrowful course.

When you look at the saints and good people throughout history, they have prayed for the day that the Messiah would return and liquidate the fallen lineage and return humanity back to God's lineage.

In their time, even after arduous pray, they could only momentarily keep Satan's attacks at bay.

Our own ancestors deeply are pained that they could not attend the True Parents while they were on earth.  All humankind deep in their hearts have such hopes to attend True Parents.

Therefore, you should become true sons and true daughters of filial piety who are able to attend them from a miserable situation rather than trying to attend them from a glorious position.

Such sons and daughters will cry out that the True Parents are walking the suffering path of the cross that is more severe than that of Jesus, even though the sons and daughters are experiencing difficulty, despair and misery themselves.

As filial sons and daughters they will exclaim, "As someone who attends True Parents, I therefore accept any kind of heavy cross as a matter of course. I praise that, so please, God, do not worry on account of me."

How can we engraft, on the individual level, to the parents' individual victory of restoring the sinful blood to God's pure blood lineage?

Only after we indemnify, restore the worries, pains and sorrow that come to us, instead of giving them to God to bear.

Why have I spread the Blessed Families(families married by the Messiah and rid of sinful blood) out everywhere in Korea? God works with the thirty million people of the Korean people and the entire Korean peninsula, and True Parents are coming to the thirty million Korean people and the Korean peninsula.  Every village, valley, mountain and field -- desires to attend the coming True Parents. 

Serving True Parents is the desire of all people in history. 

You should set an individual standard of indemnity and then become the substantial representatives of True Parents.

You should become the type of people whose whole village will want to serve you without regret.  Of course, True Parents are always in the center making a spiritual relationship with everyone.

There is only one set of True Parents.  However, with limitations of a physical body, they are unable to relate with everyone personally.

This is why True Parents have blessed families so they can stand in the position as their representatives. Therefore, they stand in the position to relate with all people.

True Parents' responsibility is to bear the cross and pass the national level where Jesus had laid the path on to the worldwide level.

Therefore, the cross of the people should be carried by the Blessed Families who live as true children of True Parents.

After the Fall, we fell below the position of God's true sons and daughters.  Through Jesus' difficult path, we were able to become God's adopted sons and daughters.

Now that we live in the Completed Testament Age, we can become true sons and daughters just as Jesus was.

All families that receive the Marriage Blessing which reverses the fallen blood lineage and connects your family to God's direct lineage, must serve as the foundation for the people in order for Heaven to gain victory.

We must love True Parents and separate from Satan based on the standard of original love. We must fulfill our responsibility to go beyond the standard of perfection on the world level.  This is how world peace will come about.

Our mission

We are preparing a foundation so we can directly attend True Parents and assemble other brothers and sisters of the world before them.

We are the ancestors who have this responsibility.  Therefore, we have to remove the path of the cross and persecution so our descendants do not have to bear it.

Currently, the sad situation of humanity is that we pass on the blood of the fallen blood lineage to our children who have to also bear the cross to liquidate their sins.  This is our original mission, not our descendants.

When can God finally appear as the master and Parent of all creation and reclaim His position which was stolen from Satan?

Once the human world unifies and the Abel and Cain world become one.

We can think that all the people living on the earth today, are like children living without their parents.

They fight among themselves.  Therefore, God has to appear as the Parent and teach them that those who are fighting are only fighting their elder brothers and their younger brothers.

Nobody knew this but God. 

The concept of true, ideal parents departed once false parents were established.  Also, because true parents' position was lost, there was no foundation for the ideal children to come.  These positions were sacrificed to Satan.

Therefore, the ideal parents must now appear replacing the false parents linked the blood lineage of Satan.

The time has finally come, awaited through all of history, for God to educate ideal children.  A religion, a movement has taken over this mission.

This is the Unification Church.

We should be proud of the True Parents' achievements.

Next, true children must come together.  They should not just love their family clan, but they should love on the global and universal level.

True children should not say that they only know the American people.  They should transcend any ethnic feelings.

In whose name did the Fall occur?

In Satan's name.

Therefore, in these Last Days, we should jump over the line of the Fall in God's name.

So, God should be above our head and command us directly, just as God was above Adam.

True Parents have no connection to the Fall. 

Our path is to make this new world by gathering people with the true lineage from around the world, who are connected to True Parents and God.

Thus a true family will become a tribe, a tribe will become society and a people will establish a  nation that takes dominion over the world.

Throughout history, the fallen world has been sinking.  Now, we must make a new start and go up.

We are at the time in history where the fallen world and the new world centered on God will meet.  Everything will now reverse.

Then, when will we connect to that central line?

The True Parents had to reach the worldwide level to finally be victorious over Satan who is firing his weapons.

This is why we are experiencing a heavy battle, so we can expand from the nation to the spirit world capacity of True Parents.  

We are approaching the time where the True Parents will be welcomed as national parents.

Return for Tomorrow's Post: Family Created as Good a Place

This Post was rewritten and derived from the Textbook,  Cheon Seong Gyeong Book Two, True Parents and Us Chapter 6

Now All Sin Can Leave the Earth

We are living in the age where all of fallen history is being indemnified.  This means that all of the wrongs of the past are being completely turned around.

Jesus laid a foundation for our sins to be forgiven, but we still carry the seed of sin on the earth.  Now is the time for full resurrection and eradicate sin completely from our lineage and from the earth.

In the Completed Testament Age, the world of peace that has been hoped for by millions of saints, peoples and those of faith will finally unite God and humanity together.

This can only happen because the True Parents, who have restored the fallen first parents of humankind, have arrived.

Jesus was to be the first true parent of humanity.  Since he perfected himself and became God's True Son carrying God's true blood lineage, he would have been able to connect his True Family to this lineage.  Thus, his followers would have engrafted to his family clearing away their path of sin and this would then rise to the national level.

Unfortunately, Jesus was unable to complete his mission due to the faithlessness of his disciples who ultimately abandoned him in the end.

So, we should know the value of how precious this time that we are living in to live in the same time as the True Parents and finally liquidate the sins throughout history.

So, how much love do we receive of the True Parents?

Today, many groups, atheists and communists are screaming out that God is dead or there is no God.  If there is someone who condemns this declaration, then he would love True Parents more than God does.

If you pray that you will be able to witness to such a person and bring them to meet the True Parents, then you will meet such a person and God will be joyful.

If you agree that this person is the smartest person, then absolutely you cannot be defeated by the spirits in the spirit world.

If you love True Parents and practice their teachings, then you absolutely cannot be defeated.

Satan accuses God's people endlessly.

But you can accuse the spirits that you have loved True Parents this much, but what have they done for God's dispensation or ever done for God?  Then you become the people living in the greatest abundance.

If family members were to fight over who loves the True Parents more, would God be saddened upon witnessing this?

God would call them both and establish them as a model of loving True Parents.  Then tell other people to love True Parents as these two have loved them.  This is the standard.

We should love True Parents

How far away do you think you are from this standard?

Those without tears cannot follow True Parents.

God, spirits, and all people need to pay close attention to True Parents.

We should think about this in our daily lives.  Without following True Parents' difficult path with tears, your face cannot be brightened.

You should live for the sake of others.  Even though you may try to do your best, you should always have an apologetic heart towards heaven.

We must attend True Parents

If you went through the wilderness course and crossed the Jordan River, and then fought the seven tribes of Canaan, this still would not be a victorious death.

You become an original person that is worthy of a heavenly appointment from God, only after you conquered the seven tribes and then established a new nation centered on God.

The True Parents are the ancestors of humankind.  You should therefore attend them as your own parents.

When you follow and serve them for three years or more, then the nation should serve them and the world should serve them.

This is the only way we will build a world of peace.

Since True Parents have conquered the root of sin that has caused so much suffering in human history, following their path will lead this world finally out of darkness.  This is how it should be.

This is the way to advance to global restoration.

The principle is that you serve for three years eat, and live with parents and discuss with them.  This is how the household should be.

As a family living with the parents, you should have a three-year period where you live in peace and happiness, use only good words, and share joy with one another.  This is the path each individual should take.

We should be obedient

The children should show absolute obedience to the Parents who have come in the original name of God without any trace of the fallen blood lineage.

There is no objection to that.  This is not done by force.

We are creating an environment where humanity can serve the True Parents centering on love.

The wife loves her husband and the husband loves his wife.  You become parents centered on love and create an environment where your beloved children can naturally submit to you.

Only through this natural submission without force, such as communism and false parents practice, can the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth be realized and not destroyed.

We must inherit the tradition

Upon the arrival of True Parents who brought the truth of the age through their Divine Principle teachings, the Completed Testament, we did not know what was to become of humankind.

We did not know what was to truly become of ourselves.

People have never understood history and where we were headed.

They did not know humanity's purpose and what was to happen in the future.  This is because we did not have the true parents and ancestors to reveal the truth of all of history and the coming world of peace.

Because of the True Parents, we know true history, the circumstances between God and us and we have come to know the present and future.

We can know such a tradition and inherit it.

We can win over the fallen history and the future with this tradition.

Why and from whom?

It is because you have met True Parents.  You follow what True Parents teach, and what they do.  They have cut a clear path which to follow continuing the mission left incomplete through Jesus' death.You desire what True Parents desire and inherit from them.

You inherit these things from them.

We realize that until now there have been no parents in this universe.  Those who gave birth to children before this time acted on behalf of fallen parents.  They were evil parents, using and ruining their children.

What got broken through this? 

Through the first parents of humankind falling, we lost true brothers, and sisters, brides and bridegrooms, fathers and mothers, who are meant to become perfect, have split apart.

Parents throughout history had not been able to have children of goodness, meaning they ultimately lost the family.  

The family is a representative of universal history.

Imagine a world where every family was centered upon God's ideal.

All of humanity's current problems would be immediately eradicated.  Why?  Because the Fall began through the family based on the false love of a man and a woman.

Family represents the world, the heavenly kingdom, the nation and all families.

God is trying to find its center.  People living today should be connected to this center.  In other words, the common purpose pursued by God and human beings is to be connected to the center.  There is nowhere else that the past, present and future can be bound together.

True Parents have accomplished the tasks that Adam and Eve were meant to do from the beginning, building a tradition for all of humanity to follow toward a world of heaven on earth.

Through restoring family, you have now something Satan is unable to own.

You are separating from Satan through the base of your family connected directly to God through the unfallen lineage of the Messiah.  You should have the best brothers and sisters; you should have original siblings that are not found in the evil world.

You must have brothers and sisters that are not from the satanic world.

You should establish such a tradition.  This is how it should be for you before you marry.

Two people who perfect themselves, cleansing the mistakes of the past and being reborn, you will leave a tradition to your sons and daughters that teaches them how to live.

You fight such a hard battle in the countries so you can leave behind a tradition for your descendants after you have gone.

This is a great opportunity that comes only once.  An opportunity to educate your children saying, We worked amidst this kind of hardship.

The tradition you leave behind will be your testament.

This cannot be changed. It is an eternal tradition.

Since we have been able to transcend the world, blacks, yellows and whites can be brothers and sisters.  This is in order to realize the brotherhood realm of humankind.

This is the true realm of Adam and Eve, which has no connection with the Fall.  Once humanity goes in the opposite direction of the Fall, then we will see an Utopian world come.

What philosophy can establish such a tradition to lead us to that better world?

Everything will work this way if we live for the sake of others.  

Sons and daughters who grow up in that kind of environment do not have to suffer such as their parents who walked a path of faith to leave such a tradition.

They will become descendants who will be able to automatically go straight to the heavenly nation with actual accomplishments that surpass the satanic worlds greatest feat, because they are directly connected with heaven.

The next step is for such people who live such sacrificial lives to marry one another.

Our marriages transcends the satanic boundaries.  We have the mindset that we can marry an African if told to do so, marry a white if recommended to do so and marry a yellow person if recommended to do so.

Such a tradition should be established from now on.  We should create oneness from now on.

Then you should guide your descendants and the world to live in this way from now on.  The two must become one.

When you become one with your spouse, you should not bear evil children.

To bear children of goodness, the husband and wife should be completely one.  Without becoming one, children of goodness cannot come about.  Thus you should become completely one centering on God's will.

Return for Tomorrow's Post: God's Dream: World Peace

This post was rewritten and derived from the Book, Chapter 6 True Parents and Us from Cheon Seong Gyeong Book two

This is Completed Testament Age

If you have noticed, the Bible references to the number three as stages of completion.  The Principle states these stages as the formation stage, growth, stage, and the completion stage.

Therefore, the Old Testament age refers to the formation stage.  God used this time period in history for the preparation of the Coming of heaven on earth.  The New Testament Age is the growth stage of history.

And we finally come to the Completed Testament where all of history comes to fruition with the return of the Messiah to the earth.  This is the age where all that God had hoped for at the beginning of creation will finally be fulfilled.

In other words, all the wrongs of history will finally be reversed and humanity can return to their rightful positions as true sons and daughters of God.

On the path of restoring the world to heaven on earth, we should go from the age of servant of servant, the age of servant, the age of adopted child, to the age of the direct lineage or true sons and daughters.

We have come to say that we are God's sons and daughters, but in actually, at best we are His adopted children because we do not carry God's true blood lineage.

If we carried the blood lineage of God, there would be no such thing as sin running through our veins.  Jesus' sacrificed his life to link humanity to God as sons and daughters.  In the Completed Testament Age, he returns to raise humanity to the True Son and True Daughter position.

Jesus came to restore the blood lineage and liquidate sin from the earth by his followers linking to his true family.

Since no one in Jesus' time practiced absolute faith that he was God's son, Jesus was only able to give us spiritual salvation through his death, but left complete physical salvation unfinished through sacrificing his own body.

How are we able to go from the adopted child's position and connect directly to God's lineage?

However, can we complete the course from the age of the servant of servants, through the age of the servant, and the age of the adopted child, and be connected to the age of direct lineage? Connecting to the age of direct lineage cannot be done just like that.

True children should go through the change of lineage and rebirth

The lineage of the true son and that of the adopted son are different.  This is why we need a change of lineage from our sinful one.

The Messiah is the true son of God.

The Fall was the first parents basing their love relationship on Lucifer's will.

This mistaken has been rectified through True Parents who create proper marriages through which the change of blood lineage is possible through linking to their lineage of God.

True Parents clear away evil deeds of false parents, thereby abolishing hell on earth, and giving marriage blessings to hundreds of billions of ancestors in the spirit world.

Since humankind obtained satanic blood, people are unable to return to God on their own without a mediator who carries God's pure bloodline.

This transition of our blood defiled by Satan must transition.  This is why the Messiah must come again to establish a family carrying his blood lineage.  

If he does not return to the earth, there is no way to restore the blood lineage.

True Parents must rectify the wrong lineage that forms the root of the satanic world.  The Messiah does not return to destroy the earth, but to turn the sinful lifestyle and correct the misdirected course of love.

Why did Jesus mention the paradox, "Those who seek to live will die, and those who seek to die will live."?

It is because the sinful world must die.  The tradition of the sinful individual must die.

The loving relationship between God and humankind is based on the true love which God desired as His ideal at the time of creation.  Humanity was to enjoy loving oneness in unity with God.

If the first parents had followed God and united with His word, then we would have never been banished from Heaven and we would enter the Kingdom of Heaven without ever worrying about hell coming into existence.

There were three stages in history: The Old Testament Age, the New Testament Age, and the Completed Testament Age.

The Old Testament Age was the time for the redemption of children through the offering of sacrifices.  They sacrificed material things to prepare for the coming of God's True Son.

In the New Testament Age, Jesus was the offering for us to receive spiritual salvation and ultimately physical salvation through the reversal of false parents to true parents.

This age of the Second coming prepares for the parents as the bride and bridegroom.

The reason that I, having the name of the True Parent, have been suffering for forty years as the center of the Completed Testament Age, is to receive God on earth. This will lead to the oneness of God and humankind in love.

The original relationship between God and humankind is one of parent and child. 

In the New Testament Age, human beings were God's adopted children.

Now in the Completed Testament Age, we are in a parent-child relationship.  Now, what the son does is what the Father does and what the Father does is what the son does.  They act together.

What belongs to the Father belongs to the son, and what belongs to the son belongs to the Father.  The reason the movement which teaches this fact is feared is because it teaches this destined parent-child relationship.

The True Parents, that restored the fallen position of the first parents, come on this level plane and walk a suffering path in order to invite God in.

What position do they arrive?

To the original, vertical plane.

Since humanity was cut off from the original principle of heaven and earth, peace did not begin as long as that root is not restored.  This is absolute.

This is why human effort alone in human history was never able to bring about world peace without redeeming the root cause of humanity's problems.

You should think of the Messiah as being the same as you.  What is his mission?

The Old Testament age was the sacrifice of creation to find true sons and daughters. In the New Testament Age, the true son were sacrificed for the coming True Parents.

The Completed Testament Age is the True Parents paving the way for God to come.

The True Parents are to build a base, encompassing all the people of the world for the Father.  As the Father's heart unfolds, then the Father's realm of heart will naturally emerge and settle here.

God will be able to say that, "Everything is finished," when He is in the central position of love and reorganizes the original, ideal authority.  The first parents obeyed Lucifer's word, restoration of humanity following God's word is the time we are living today.

The method has been different for each age for people to return to God according to the level of intelligence during that time period.

In the Old Testament Age, people connected to God through sacrifices; in the New Testament Age, it was through believing and following Jesus; the Completed Testament Age, is people can go to God by attending the True Parents.

God looks at three generations of a family.

God wants to bring you into unity after three generations.  Your marriage represents the Old Testament Age, the New Testament and Completed Testament Age is next. The tradition will be established by the third generation, who is born through the second generation of your sons and daughters.

True Parents sacrificed in order to bring the vertical God to earth and have dominion, in the Completed Testament Age.  

Through the unity of the horizontal and vertical love, God's love and life finally burst forth.

The seed of life that began in God's love and based on the original Principle standard will appear on earth.  Based on the love of True Parents, new blood ties expand with the harmony of God and humankind for the first time in human history.

Now, we must restore the rights of ownership. 

Now in the Completed Testament Age, you must stand in the position representing the mother and father.  

Satan became owner of creation who stole God's true position because everything deviated from God's true love.

However, we must indemnify all this and bring everything to the original owner. 

The Completed Testament Age is the time of accomplishment, in other words harvest.

Everything God strives for throughout history will finally be accomplished as individuals all the way to the worldwide level.

These levels are linked through God's love, God's life and God's true lineage.  This is the tradition of one lineage, one love and one life.

When everything in creation is connected back to God, then Satan will have to leave.  The work of engrafting to God's true blood lineage through the True Parents, will remove the connection we have with the satanic lineage.

Persecution of Home church

Home church is witnessing to 360 homes in your area and bringing them to the The Completed Testament and the true way of life. This way their families can join in the dispensation of the new era of Heaven on Earth upon the work of the Messiah of the Second Coming.

Your ultimate destination is God's heart, and home church is your grammar school.  

When you accomplish this, you will have finished grade school level.  Then, when you bring America to the truth, you will have finished high school.

When the communist world tags along, you will have an MA.  When all of spirit world is reorganized, you will have a Ph. D.  After you finish your work in home church, everything that follows after is easy.  It will take just a few hours of work.

First, you must lay the foundation.

Before, we were persecuted in the past when we did this work.  Now, we must work in a wide area and stir up people.  We are sowing seeds in various places.  These seeds will be harvested one day.

This harvest belongs to the world.

You have a definite area in which your seeds will grow and can harvest as your own.  You do home church for yourself, because you need a foundation on which to stand for your family.  Home church does this.

God has been collecting all of the blessings accumulated from the persecution of His faithful children.  So, even though you are persecuted, we are harvesting the seeds we sow now.  This work is worth doing.

Where do you sow your seeds?

You sow seeds everywhere you can.  If you follow the providence of restoration led by the Messiah and like him, then  your home church people will like you and want to go everywhere you go.  You become the ancestor of a new tribe.

We have always been aware that God is a God of love, but now we understand clearly why God allows His people to be persecuted through yesterday's post.

Persecution is not for just your own sake. Now that we understand the standard of liberation through suffering and persecution, we have to run even faster.

We need to educate people what type of world this should be and the kind of work God has been building throughout history.  Now that you have been educated on these principles, you can discern who are the good and bad leaders and educate them with this same content.

You are living in a great time built upon the sacrifices of millions of saints and people of faith.  Even if you were to stumble along the way, when  you look up, you will see that you still have gained fruit from all of your work and effort.

You have to have strong determination.  Wherever you go doing this heavenly work, you will be followed by spirits of the Old Testament.

Without working through you on earth, they are not able to get anywhere.

You are also the resurrection of the New Testament spirits and all of the worthy people in spirit world.  You are the key to their liberation and they must follow you.

God is charmed by you.

No one will be able to bother you wherever you go.

Even if your path were to end in death, or to happiness you will be able to go toward persecution happily because you go voluntarily knowing you are not only liberating fallen history but God's sorrow.

If you go this way, because someone forces you and chases you down, then you will not be a victor.  If all of America was to persecute you because they do not understand, yet you still go this way, then victory is ahead.

Do you feel happy or powerless as you go this true way of life?

You mostly feel powerless.  When you are witnessing and working for the mission, you should not feel like a loser who does this work, but a king.

When I found myself in prison, I felt I was king of all the prisoners and everyone would come under me. Now you have a reason to feel that.  Who would God love, a person like me or like you? Father and son should be the same, not different. 


Now you have knowledge how this dispensation of restoration works, are you really going to go this way now?  Grit your teeth and determine you are going to do this for future generations.
