Human Being's Awesome Value

There are many songs dedicated to the term, 'the good ol' days'.  Even theme songs to popular shows begin about how the milk man and innocent television show are long gone.

 

We currently live in a world where people feel it is more tragic to drop a popular phone than to care for the life of a fellow human being.  This is the tragedy of the current human condition.

How great is the true value of humans?

We are the only beings that God longs for over tens of thousands of years. 



According to my observations, this fact happens to be the basis for the creation of the universe.


God and human beings relate to one another on the internal, external, vertical(spiritual) and horizontal (physical) perspectives about the world of love can be established.

God binds these at the deepest core of the heart and comes to reside in the center of them all.

Without uniting into one, the standard of vertical and horizontal cannot develop into the ideal form of love.

 

 

 

A vertical (spiritual) form alone does not guarantee the existence of he horizontal (physical) form.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Therefore, it is necessary that you get an understanding that God had no other choice but to create human beings in this form.

God is an absolute being with an pure ideal for His creation which was corrupted.

He pursues beings who can relate to Him with absolute value.

This value is not exchanged for anything else in that exists in all of creation.  Could the love of your life be replaced by another?






 

 A being that can relate to God has a value that is greater than that of God Himself.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Is this statement true or is it blasphemy?

How can we say a being is more important than the Creator Himself? 

The form in existence that has this absolute value before God is none other than humankind.  God created us as beings of value with this idea.









God created humankind for the sake of love.

Human beings were created because of love.

We are different from any other being in creation because we were created as God's sons and daughters.

As humans, God created us as His object partners  This means that through relating with us, He receives love.  This does not mean we were created to serve or worship God.

We were created to receive love directly from Him.

This is a privilege only given to humankind.  Therefore, because we are in the position to receive God's love, we resemble God.  God, then, desires love just as you and I do.  

In God's ideal of creation, humans were to embody God as his image and the rest of creation was to embody God in symbols.  This is based on Love.

When God rejoices, people will automatically rejoice, then when they rejoice, the creation will automatically rejoice as well. This was the original way of the world.

How could this be possible?

This could only come about through true love...nothing else could achieve such a link to God and the creation.

Some may say that is placing humans on the same level as God.

You must think deeply about this fact.  If God was to create an object that would reflect His love and internal being, whom would God make it resemble?

Wouldn't He rather have it resemble Him than anything else in creation?

Then, if God creates an object that resembles Himself, then that object would have all of His characteristics, both male and female characteristics that are within God.

We resemble God;He made us in His image.  We are the substantial, physical manifestations of His internal nature and His invisible form and His invisible mind.

Whose eyes do our eyes resemble? God's.




 

God's invisible being is symbolically reflected in all parts of our body.  

Have you ever thought about that?

The Bible even states that we are made in the 'image' of God. Then wouldn't this mean that He would create our bodies to resemble Him as well as His heavenly charcter.

When you closely observe the human anatomy you will see that the facial features, the eyes are set deeper than other features.

Our deep-set eyes can thus observe everything.

Then the nose symbolizes Adam and Eve.  Next, the mouth symbolizes all the things of creation.  It is horizontal and encloses thirty-two teeth or four times eight based on all the things of creation in the world and the number.

Who knew that God had placed all of these hidden symbols within our body?  Next the ears symbolize all directions.  The features that are found above the neck symbolize heaven.

In other words, the features above the neck is the information center of heaven.

Did you know that the Lord of Creation placed every part of His internal form in the face of human beings?

Hence, God's characteristics can be found there.  The eyes symbolize God, therefore, the eyes are the first features to develop.

Since God is the center of the universe, the eyes symbolize Him.  Just as the old saying goes, 'the eyes are the window to the soul', you can tell just by looking into someone's eyes whether they are conscientious person or not.

What would be the core of truth?

The center would not be knowledge, money or power.  

The core of truth would be love.  Love's essence is vertical (spirit) and truth that embodies love is horizontal.

Because we are created in his image, you would know Him by looking at creation.  Adam and Eve are the object partners of vertical love while standing as subject partners to the creation.

If the love between a man and woman can be made to be together with the axis of the world through east, west north and south, then God the spirit world and the entire physical world would be connected.

You need to attain oneness with your spouse. 

When a subject and object partner attain unity, reproduction takes place.

This can only happen through the action of give and take.  This place is truly one of joy.  Therefore, only when man and woman unite, can the subject of the couple be established.

When they are united, the man is automatically the subject even if he does not want to be.

 

We need to voluntarily be part of activities that demonstrate God's original love.  

Human beings need to love God and come closer to Him.

The first commandment Jesus gave was to love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul and with all of your mind.  To love God comes first.  You need to love God with all your body and soul.  You need to go to the very end, and not go halfway in loving God.

In such a manner, you need to attain the state in which your heart reflects God's image, with an original nature that is absolutely aligned to become one with Him. Through this, you will attain the beginning and the end of everything. The first commandment dictates this as the way to love God. 

The rhythm of the expression of joy can bring God, human beings and everything in its presence which can dance in tune with this rhythm either symbolically or substantially.  

When this happens, the day that all of creation can feel this liberation is when it will be able to exclaim, "Yes, my existence in this world is worthwhile!"

Wouldn't it be even the smallest creature in the world's wish to be a part of the grand feast that celebrates the love of God and humankind coming together?

What a day that will be.  This is the day in which God has longed for since the beginning of creation before His ideal was destroyed.

The creation is the foundation on which God's sons and daughters can be created. 

This is how we are connected together in a relationship based on this foundation.

This is true of animals, minerals, and plants.  Stamen and pistils that are found in the plant world are similar to the male and female that are found in the animal kingdom.

The greatest masterpiece of creation is the internal nature and external form of human beings.

We are the combination of all forms of creation brought and bound together.

Mind Wants Principle, Body Pursues Addiction

A constitution is the base of all laws of a nation.  It is the yardstick for determining what is good and what is evil.

You make a judgement based on a standard which you hold within yourself

If you are a person that does not have principle, then when you view something as good or bad, your judgement has no value.

Random judgments are based on self-centeredness.

A true judgment can only come from a basic law or principle within yourself.  The mind has an unchanging quality, while the body always changes.  The mind should have a permanent foundation.

The body follows the direction dictated by your five senses which are always changing direction.  If your eyes see a lovely flower, then your body will walk over to it.

But the mind is not bound by the five senses.  The mind can refuse to obey, and it gives direction to your body.

Your mind tries to bring the body to the place where all the five senses can be contented.  If the mind favored only the eyes, then the other senses would complain.

The mind takes in account all the five senses.  The mind decides how it will respond to the desires of each sense.  The mind can only make these decisions based on principles.

Actually, we should thank God that we have a conscience as a command post for the body.  Before knowing this, you may have felt bothered by the mind limiting your activities.

Americans look for the comfortable and convenient way of doing things in life.  To those who just want to party and enjoy sex, the conscience seems to be an obstacle to those activities.

When it is time to eat, the body craves delicious food.  It prefers to have delicious pleasures all the time.  Why does the mind put certain limits on what the body desires?

Habits and customs are hard to change, no matter how logical it is to change them.

Addiction to drugs, alcohol and sex are hard to cure.

Have you ever thought how we can truly cure these addictions in our society?  Our lives must be planted on a firm foundation of principle.

If we do not already have one, then we have to create one.  Without standards or principles, we will only cause and see destruction around us.

If there are no principles that bind the parents and children or husband and wife, then the family will fall apart.

The mind wants a principled life, but the body pursues all kinds of addictions. 

Don't you feel the war between your good mind and your sinful body?

This contradiction is a terrible burden.

People feel sorry for mentally ill people, but the reality is, those whose mind becomes sick is even harder to restore.  Religion deals with that world.

A grasshopper doesn't plan ahead for the winter, but instead enjoys the warm weather thinking about how sweet his life is.  Spring and summer always come to an end, however.

We must come to a standard law and principle that should be followed by everyone in their homes, society, nation and world standard based on your conscience.

This standard will be acceptable by everyone and it will be unchanging, eternal and unique.

Thus, we conclude that the conscience provides such a standard.

Everyone appreciates material treasure, but would material things like everyone?

If treasure could speak, it would tell you that it would like to be possessed by someone that has a higher standard than it holds.  You feel this way because you yourself are like that.

We like things that are higher and nobler than ourselves. So do material things.  A diamond would like someone who shines brighter and is harder than it is.

Gold's deep color represents peace, and it wants to be loved by someone more peace loving than itself.

A pearl will respect and love someone with a more harmonious color than itself.

Would a diamond like some unworthy person who just grabs it or prefer to be possessed by someone with a moral ethic?

A diamond also has a preference and would resists the thief who reaches to snatch it.

This is also how we would react.

One person does not consider if he is worthy to possess a diamond, while the other considers whether he is really entitled to it.

If you have this quality, then the diamond would have that inclination, too.  This is elementary, but necessary education.

America's problem is that it doesn't really know the power and existence of the world of conscience.

How large do you think that the conscience is?

Seven billion people live in the world today.  So that means there are 7 billion different kinds of conscience.  Then if we were to include people in the spirit world that is billions more.

If you did the work of ten people today, the conscience would not tell you to do the work of nine tomorrow.

There is no such conscience.

The conscience will tell you to do more work the next time.  If you gave ten people ten dollars, would your conscience permit you to give nine people ten dollars the next day and keep the ten for yourself?

Your conscience will tell you to give the money to eleven people instead.  As you can see, the conscience is never satisfied.

Even if the whole planet earth was contained within your conscience, you would want to reach out farther and possess the whole galaxy.  Then if you had the whole galaxy, you will want to have God.

Even then your journey would not end until you owned the heart of God and had His love.

Even if you contained the whole planet earth in your conscience, it would still want to reach out farther and possess the whole galaxy.

Even if it had the whole universe, it would still want to have God. Your journey wouldn't end until you owned the heart of God and had His love.

That is how the conscience works.

When you try to set a standard for this extraordinary kind of conscience, it is not easy.

Who made the conscience so big?

God did.  If He had nothing that He could put into it, He would run away.  He is responsible.  What can fill the conscience?

God knows you like diamonds.  Would He be satisfied by filling everyone's conscience bag with a lot of diamonds?  Why not?

God can make all the diamonds and gold at will, but there is one thing He cannot control.  True love.  True love is only activated in a reciprocal relationship of subject and object.

Without an object, love is not created.

Can you show the love that you have?  Man's love is only activated when he finds a partner.

When you are sitting by yourself, your love cannot be activated.

God has been sitting all by Himself, lonely just like you would be, so can He enjoy His love alone?

Even if He was holding a piece of chalk and can laugh with enjoyment, then it would make a little better sense.

No matter how much potential love God has, by Himself God cannot feel its excitement. 

An object is always needed in order to activate love through give and take.  When a woman has a man to relate to, the vibration of the give and take can begin.  How about between woman to woman?  Even God needs an ideal object.

What was the purpose of God creating the whole universe?

For the perfection of His object.  Since God is gigantic, He needs an equivalent object who can stand side by side with Him.  Therefore, He created man with a conscience as big as God's conscience.

When man completely fills his conscience and starts to laugh, then God can respond.

Then the whole universe can laugh together with them.  That is God's design.

Nothing else except love can fill that conscience, however. Love alone can excite God.

In love, God is an enormous plus and man is an enormous minus, when they come together a giant spark will flash.  How much power do you think that will generate?

The entire universe will jolt at that connection.

Then God, men and women will be totally intoxicated and melt within the power of that love.  From the one-celled amoeba, the insects all the way to the galaxies, all of creation will be affected by the unity of God and man.

You might think that God is too far away for us to unite and cause such a great spark.  Electricity can speak between any distance.

God's electricity travels faster than the electricity we know on earth.

When He is totally happy and intoxicated in love, then all of mankind can respond that they are happy, too.  Then the entire creation will echo around the world that they are happy.


I like the word "too."  The cross bar on the "t" represents the horizontal absolute; the vertical line represents you-you are a pillar of love. The "oo" means everything is OK. Americans say OK; the O means perfection, and K comes from "keep." So OK means that you keep perfection, that everything is going well. You didn't know I had a definition for this!



Conscience is OK, but what is it centered on?  Life?  That is good.  Knowledge?  That is also nice.  Power?

These are nice, but are not the central things.

What is one substance that everyone likes and participates in?  Love alone has that universal character.

When the cornerstone of existence is conscience that is based on true love or true love is based on conscience, then everything is in the right place.  That is the standard.

This is not a temporal standard, but it has an eternal, unique, and unchanging quality.  The essentialities of love is the same, but the components are different from person to person, depending on where love appears.

Each individual is a truth body with unique love and characteristics.

They all share a common essentiality in God.

Each person is a cell of love. 

Each person has love that is unique to them which cannot be duplicated by anyone else.  Yet, it is unchanging and eternal.

If you have true universal love within you, then you have become a standard man or woman of the universe.  The conclusion we have come to is that we need the standard of conscience which is true love.

Through just this standard alone, we can digest the world and bring it into our consciences.  We can even bring in God with our invisible true love.

As long as you have that true love, you can go in any direction.  The world of true love also transcends time and space.

The five senses will cooperate with that standard of true love instead of repelling each other, for they do so out of happiness, not duty.

Return for Tomorrow's Post: Search for God in the Conscience 


This Post was rewritten from the speech Our Standard

Man Become Less Valuable Than Material

When we narrow down 'our standard' it becomes 'my standard'.  When we broaden it, then it becomes the 'world standard'.

Where would we find the standard?  In the past, present or future?  What would be the central factor that sets the standard?  Would the standard be set by money, knowledge or power?

Could a person set the standard?

We can say that the standard should be based on the mind.

It would only be natural that the standard be based on the mind, but the mind also varies.

Sometimes it is beautiful and other times it is ugly.  Would the standard be based on a school record, or on religion, or on God?

Through this topic, we need to determine what has value for our lives.

The Korean word for treasure literally means "material treasure".

In talking about value we often are referring to material value; usually a treasure is based on material value.

What determines a standard of value?

First, something of value will last for a long time, has an unique eternal and unchanging quality.  Gold for instance is not easily changed.

These are the quality of value for material things.

People talk about the value of material things, but do not see a person as a treasure.  Minimum wage is still under 9 dollars an hour.  How cheap a man is!

Why haven't people been regarded as treasure?  People will go to war and kill other people to obtain material treasure or territory.  This is a real problem.  How did a human become less valuable than gold?

A pearl has a harmonized color which is beautiful.

Gold and pearls are very soft, while diamonds are very hard. Would you exchange your loved one for gold?

Would you give up your loved one's little finger for an equal amount of diamonds? Is that a good deal?  If someone offered you a diamond as big as your wife or husband, would you trade them in?

Then this means that men and women are more valuable than gems.

What do men have that makes them more valuable than diamonds?

It is his sparkling eyes or his skin?

Do you have the three qualities of value?

Men and women change.  Do you have valuable quality only when  you are young and pretty, or also when you are old?  Why do you prefer a warm, embracing person over an aloof and distant person?

When it is warm, people tend to relax, but when it is cold everyone automatically tries to protect himself.

Warm weather causes people to be more expansive and relaxed.  Do your favorite things change or not?  People are changeable, particularly women!

Changeable women are less liked than more stable women, right? 

Would the changeable quality be true for men also?

The three qualities of value apply to people as well as material things.

Therefore, a person who has a changeable quality has no everlasting value or uniqueness.

Man has two aspects: a mind and body.  Which changes more?  Does your conscience change more than your physical desires?

People who believe in the theory of evolution, say that there is not much difference between the make up of men and animals.

By holding to this belief, one tends to believe that animal behavior and conflict is also inherent in men, is natural and will last forever.  With this kind of ideology, a world of true, everlasting peace where man has freedoms within principle cannot exist.

They also say that the mind's desires are an illusion and that there is no such thing as an absolute standard of conscience.

They feel we are just material and there is no such thing as a permanent ideal.

In other words, if we are no better than animals just existing without a true purpose, then there is no room for a permanent standard for which to live.

Therefore, no permanent quality of value can exist.

If you and I are truly descended from monkeys, then man is also only an animal.  Do you think that monkeys live by moral standards or ethics?

There are no such standards as keeping one's purity in the monkey world.

But man is more advanced culturally, but seems to be changing into more like the monkeys because men and women just have casual sex together like the monkeys.

Those who uphold moral values seem to be losing the debate with evolutionist because they cannot show how men and women are really different from animals.

In order to be able to distinguish men from animals, even though evolutionists do not believe in God, we would have to create even an imaginary God who could be the embodiment of some absolute standard.  Otherwise there is no other way to win the battle.

Without an absolute standard, mankind cannot survive.

God has been neglected by mankind throughout history, but now we have reached a deadlock.

In the animal world, the stronger animal attacks the weaker ones.

Is this natural in the human world?

Do humans naturally need power in order to protect themselves?  There is certain conduct that needs standards.  To determine those standards, we need a foundation.  Would this be formed by the body or the conscience?

Moral quality has to pursue a tangible value, such as justice and honor.

The mind works by combining intelligence, heart and will power.  

 

Human value is based on conscience, which has an everlasting quality.

At the same time, everyone will like and agree on the value of the conscience.

The conscience should be needed morning and night and every moment of our lives.  That is the kind of standard we have to come up with.

The quality that defines a person of treasure, comes from his conscience and mind, which is eternal and unchanging.

In the Orient, when there is a bad person, we say he has a bad mind, we never say he has a bad body.

When you value someone, you value his mind saying his state of mind or thinking is good, not his appearance.

In criminal law, it is important the person's motives to commit the crime, motive is intangible.  Motivation comes from the mind, and the body reacts to that.

Does the conscience pursue good or evil things?

The answer will be the same 1,000 years from now.  If you ask someone from 10,000 years ago, their answer will be the same.

This means that the conscience has an unchanging quality.  Thus, we say that the conscience is at the base of value.

Therefore, the man's unique value comes from his conscience.

Why do we appreciate the three qualities of value in material things?

There must be some corresponding aspect in man which include those qualities.

We appreciate those qualities in certain things because we have them within ourselves.  That reciprocal relationship is the key to determine value.

We can see the same principle in the relationship between man and God.

We are not the universal subject of creation, so we cherish these qualities of values because there is a first cause which initiated this.

Evolution tries to deny the power of the conscience by saying that it is only the by product of material which came about by itself.  That material came into existence first and conscience is like a side effect.

Evolutionists don't accept the idea of a first cause, or God. 

Evolutionist say that conscience is like animal instinct which evolved to a higher status.

Do you feel good to hear that you descended directly from monkeys?

Evolutionists do not have any solutions to the human problems of today.  In order to distinguish ourselves from the animal world, we need to have God and if no real God exists we still have to make an imaginary one.  Otherwise there is no solution to the deep problems of humanity.


For the last ten years I have been spending an incredible amount of money inviting the world's leading scholars to come and think about absolute value, but they don't even want to think about it. Everyone wants to deny there is absolute value, saying there is only relative value; they keep saying they are tired of hearing about absolute value. They are asking me to change the subject of the conference, but I have refused.  I know that, no matter how great these academics are, they cannot find absolute value because it can't be observed in a laboratory or test tube.


Scholars try to determine everything through their physical senses.  They do not recognize anything that does not come their way or is intangible.

The physical senses cannot perceive the spiritual reality or anything beyond the material world like God.

There is no way you can reach conclusions about value and conscience through the analytic method. 

Today's scientific world is confused about what is reality.

There are five senses, but you need to employ one more sense to perceive the complete reality of the universe.

Thinkers say that we must conquer reality if we are to advance.

But there is such confusion of what reality is.  Religiously and philosophically there is confusion.  We have to clarity this confusion by setting the standard.

We need philosophy and religion, but what do 'I' need most of all?

An active conscience.

To determine what is reality, we have to restore our consciences to be true ones.  Have people throughout history lived with true conscience?

All men have the common desire to live with true conscience, but how can that be realized?

An important quality in a moral code is filial piety.

We place value on this, but what is it and why should we exercise it?

Filial piety is loyalty to the unchanging value of the family.

A son that practices filial piety will serve his parents and brothers and sisters even if they do not reciprocate.

Our conscience dictates that this is the right thing to do.  But if you are not able to recognize the value of conscience, you will not recognize the value of filial piety.  You have to have some starting point.

Conscience values your parents' welfare more than your own.

On a larger scale, a patriot follows his conscience by serving his country and caring about its welfare.

There is the common ground that the conscience dictates the benefit of something higher than yourself.  The conscience pursues something of higher value not caring only for the self first.

What is a saint or a holy man?

The saint follows the same principle, but he obeys his conscience for the sake of mankind.  He recognizes that the subject of all is God.  In history, holy men have always been religious leaders.

Like evolutionists, the materialistic communists say that awareness, or consciousness, is merely a by-product of the material world.  So, where can we find the moral code in that?

Communism is destructive because it is based on materialism and recognizes consciousness as only a by-product, not something that has value or needs a standard to follow.

Within communism, there is no ideal of a person of treasure.

Since communists do not place value on the spiritual element, life is expendable in their political system.  Humans are only viewed as material.

We see throughout history that they freely sacrifice people's lives to attain material.

There is no such thing as an everlasting moral standard in the world of communism.

Which is first, consciousness or the material?

How do we determine that consciousness came first?

As stated in earlier posts as an example, the eye is material whether it is in man or some animal.  Would the first eye in existence have known that it would encounter sunlight or dust therefore develop eyelashes and tears itself?

Whoever designed the eye would have understood these phenomena.  Anyone who tries to argue that the eye randomly came about into existence, you can show him his error with this short example.

Are the tear ducts to keep the eye clean and moist a random event?

Then it is logical to say that long before the eye came into being there was an universal conscious that designed the eye according to the environment.  So, we can say that conscious came before the material world.


I don't deny the process of evolution in development, but I am saying that there is a creative process going on behind it. In the theory of evolution there are sudden occurrences called mutations, in which something new comes from its parent body. But we have to say that there must have been some energy or willpower that authorized that occurrence. Could evolution itself create a new awareness and make a new design? Absolutely not.


Then there must be something that is outside evolution that supplies creative energy.

Development occurred between the highest and lowest stages, but it did not just happen automatically.  Each stage was the result of a design and input of additional energy.

Evolutionists do not want to recognize that creative energy.  Evolutionists need to acknowledge an universal consciousness that provided the know-how beforehand.

When you talk about the conscience of man, then you have to recognize that there is an universal truth that ties into it.  Therefore, they must recognize God who is the first cause.

Does conscience also evolve?

If you do not recognize the unchanging quality of conscience within yourself, then you cannot begin to look at the unchanging and unique characteristics within gems.

If you do not have this quality within yourself, then you have no reason to seek it outside  yourself.  You appreciate precious things because you have that quality within yourself.

You cannot compare two things unless you have the capacity to appreciate both.

Prisoner of God's Love

How do you differentiate between the world of good and the world of evil?

Does it begin with two different people or with the division of one person into two parts?

Each person also has an internal part and an external part.

A central characteristic of evil is that it is changeable in quality. 

Therefore, an evil person is always changing.

A person with satanic tendencies will betray your trust, stab you in the back, have two tongues by speaking of something in a favorable way and at another time say the opposite.  It all depends on what benefits him.

Would a man or a woman be more likely to have a changeable character?

This is a touchy subject.  What is the greater possibility?

After evaluating all of the circumstances, it looks like women are more susceptible to being changeable in nature.  Women usually never miss out when good times or good things are being pursued.

A man would be content to wear the same suit every single day, and all year long, but women on the other hand would want to wear a new fashion.

All the men in the audience are basically wearing the same style of clothing, but women are wearing all kinds of blouses and dresses with different shapes and colors.

The men's world is just one dull color, while the women's color is like visiting the colors displayed in a flower garden.

We can say that the men's world is like the soil and the women's world is something growing above the soil.
Therefore, women are more prone to the changing world of evil which came about into existence.

The Bible states in Genesis that the fall of man was initiated by a woman.  Women wear all kinds of colors on their nails.  If a trend started where each nail was painted a different color, that would catch on like wildfire.

Women pay attention to such things.

However, men are not so wise that they avoid following women.

In the world today, do women follow men or do men follow women?

It is the feminine nature to attract attention through color.  A flower attracts insects through color and fragrance.

When it is time to shop, the distinction between men and women boldly comes out.  A man will pick out a tie, while the woman wants to shop around in many places and compare before she buys one specific item.

In the process, she looks at many different departments looking for the perfect weapon sending out signals to make herself more colorful.

The function of a flower is to attract the attention of insects.

Men always replay to signals women send out.

Thus, men duplicate the changing nature of women by responding to the signals they send.

This nature is the cause of the fall.  In the Bible, Eve first committed sin with Lucifer.  Then she tempted Adam by offering her fruit (sexual organ) and he took it.

Do we see men do this more to women or women do this more to men?

Eve sent out artificial smiles and messages which is more obvious.

Father seems to be harder on women during his speeches, but then you must think whether it was man or woman that sent out the false signal first.

It was woman.

When we say that a nation is very colorful, we are saying that the women are colorful.  Men may say that the house needs repainting every few years, but women would want to change the color every season!

The first impression of Germany is that it is a sober, dark country because the women wear dark, uncolorful clothes.  Then when we come to America, the feeling is entirely different.

There is always a new fad and American women are always at the head of the line.

This is not to say that the women's world is bad and the men's world is good.

There is both good and evil within the world of women.  Some women are always on the lookout for the freshest, newest thing while other women are trying to preserve tradition.

Which side is the closest to good or evil?

Of course the side of tradition has a more unchanging quality, so that represents the good side.  There are all kinds of national traditions, so which would be the center?

Would you want to preserve internal things or follow external things?

Without question, you rather pursue the internal things.  We commonly speak about conscientious people.  Men of conscience have life, and also love.

Tradition should be based on the qualities of conscience, life and love.

Which is more preferred, life or love?

Each of us preserves our own life, but we cannot think of perfecting love on our own.

You need a circuit in order to perfect love.

Is it possible for the power or love to unite society and the world, or would it have to be the power of love?

It must be through love, but love should be added to life because love needs energy.

The root of life is the fruit of the love between your father and mother which comes vertically down to you.  Thus, the energy of your life should be directed toward love, becoming a seedbed of love.

Your parents' love is consummated in your life, so your life is spent searching after that origin. 

You should then associate with people in society to consummate your love.

You are in pursuit of the tradition in which your parents' love created your life.  Thus, your life is directed toward fulfilling love which will bear fruit.

Only through the power of love will man and God's ideal be allowed to blossom.  Love is the common goal of every person.

Everyone loves love.

Do you need food more than love?

We need food to not only preserve life, but for the power of life in order to give energy to your love.

From food, you get the energy for life.  Then that energy will be directed toward the blossoming of love.

Not only man, but also all things of creation are pursuing love. 

What is the ideal for men of conscience?

Men of conscience highly value tradition.  They thrust their whole life into perfecting themselves in love.  If a tradition is erected, it should continue for eternity where everyone will recognize its value.

God wouldn't hesitate to place His stamp of approval to the tradition that bears the fruit of love.  A good man upholds the unchanging quality of the tradition of love.

This tradition of love can be used on the individual level, family, society, nation, spirit world - everywhere.  This tradition is valued universally.

A man of love is accepted as a good man on every level, including spirit world.

What kind of person do you think God is?

Of course He, too is a God of conscience.

If we have a conscience as a resultant being, then certainly God, the Creator must also be a God of conscience.

We feel that the energy of life will blossom and burn into love, and our ambition is to fulfill love.  If we think this, then our first cause, God, must thinks so, too.

Do you think you meet every criteria for the universe of love?

Would you swap love for the British crown?  If you could exchange love with the most expensive diamond in the world you should think that this is only an ornament.

When your eye is shining in the power of love, that eye is priceless. 

If you walk with the eyes of love, all things of creation will want to be seen by you first.

If you have the power of love, all sounds will want to be heard by you, competing with each other to enter your ears first.

All the smells and fragrances of the universe will want to compete to be appreciated by your nose.  If you have the power of love, all food will want to be chewed by your mouth.

Even though food will be crushed by your teeth, it still wants to be connected to the power of love through you.

Food would rather be in the mouth and stomach of one who holds the power of love than continue as it is.  All the fish in the ocean would rather leave the water and enter the mouth that represents love.

All creation responds to love.  Everything wants to be a prisoner of love.

The ultimate satisfaction of creation is to be caught by true love.  Mankind is also a part of creation of God, so we find ultimate satisfaction in becoming a prisoner of God's love.

We all want to enter the mouth and ears and eyes of God.  We want to become instruments of God by becoming prisoners of His hands.

Why does this bring such joy and satisfaction?  There is nothing greater than God's love.

By becoming His prisoner, you are becoming part of His love.



Return for Tomorrow's Post: Tradition of Love


This post was rewritten and derived from the speech The Two Worlds of Good and Evil

Are You Moving Forward or Backwards?

All things of creation are preparing to burst forth in springtime. March is the revival month.  This is the season to grow by leaps and bounds; we need to make an extraordinary jump.

Picture an open book on the blackboard.

Do you want to turn over the page?  Once you turn the page, then  you cover the previous one.  If you want to go in the opposite direction, you must turn 180 degrees.


Therefore, to find a new course, you have to turn about-face.

Each of you is in this book.

We each want to get rid of the bad things of the past and become new people.  Now we are turning over a new leaf and beginning a new life.

We use key terms that the rest of the world has not established yet: True Parents and True Children and True Nation and so forth.

We are becoming new people, new family members, new men and women. 

By going this pathway, we have completely turned around toward the greatest ideal.  There have never before been people who have worked for such a grand goal of world salvation.  Most can never dream of where to begin.

We are not just thinking about it, but we have turned around and reach out for it.  When it is Christmas, everyone wants to go to their hometown and visit their family and old friends.  Wouldn't you?


The only reason I don't do it is that it would hold me back instead of helping me advance. I cannot allow myself to retreat; my thinking does not permit it. New horizons and new goals are there waiting. I want to work to fulfill them every moment of the day. Every moment is so precious.


What about you?  Are you able to envision new days ahead?  Do you forsee a new life?

When you go out on your missions, do you go and say, "What is the next goal?  I want to accomplish it."

Or before you go, you go expecting just another tough day?

Sometimes you hate witnessing or fundraising.  Sometimes you feel passive about doing it.  But once you go to a country such as Africa, Asia or Latin America, you will really appreciate such training.

The Messiah's goal is to eliminate immorality in America.

Likewise, he has a desire to also save the Mafia, drug addicts and prostitutes.  Was that not the same level of work Jesus did in his time?

Are you able to do the same work?  Are you determined to accomplish this with your own hands?

Maybe you think that there are millions of Americans who aren't doing much so, you don't see any reason to try.  Maybe you just want to live a comfortable life like everyone else.

By coming to understand Father you have learned about the true value of existence, the meaning of creation, God's will, the true way of life and true love.  But in your heart, how often have you been scorned for doing such work of restoration for the world?

Practically everyone wishes that the church didn't have such fundraising and witnessing activities.

This world is decaying.  Our mission is to go out and save it.

Our responsibility is to apply the brakes and stop the world's decline.

Is what we are doing an easy task?  Of course we know the answer is no.

In the near future, the whole world will know and recognize our good deeds.  Then this is truly a precious way of life.


I heard that the 120-day workshop included some periods of 24-hour lecturing or fundraising. You may protest that it is too much. You all have your opinions about this and that, don't you? You may be right. The United States may not need it, but we have to turn the page.


Do you want to live this way of life or not?

This world is not the limit,  We will be able to go to another world eventually after world peace has been established.  If I was a good, concerned God, I would not want my children spreading their filthy ways to the other parts of the universe.  Once we have world peace, then the universe is the limit.

Once you have reached the spiritual world, your every deed will be judged.  The spirit world is the real, eternal world.

When you get there, will you say, "Man!  I didn't know the truth." But God would reply, "What are you talking about?  Reverend Moon gave my message to the earth.  Through him I told you truth clearly through his sermons."

Then, you would not be able to offer any excuse.

Even though the messages in these posts seem bitter, this kind of instruction is necessary in order to go in the right kind of direction.

We need to make a leap.

Now, we know that unless something drastic happens, this world will crumble under the God-denying communist world.

Once you join the church, did you continue your secular ways making a little change, or did you make a drastic change in your way of life?

After living this way, it is virtually impossible for you to return to your original, selfish way of life.  If you were able to return, you could not live there for even one day.

Then, you would turn around and come back even though it would be difficult at first.

You are a new kind of citizen, not ordinary Americans at all.

Father has dealt with tens of thousands of members.  Many have betrayed him and left.  He would not say a word once they left, but he knew they would eventually return.

When one is doing Gods work, they can face him.  But someone who became a weak solider and turns away cannot face Father and rushes away when they come face-to-face again.

There are many cases where people returned with a bowed head and said, "Father, can you forgive me?  I was weak and was not thinking deeply.  But once I went back to the world, I understood the true value of what you were teaching."

Once you hear the new truth based on the Bible, you came to know God.

You know you have come into contact with a true religion.

Whether you fulfill this mission or not is up to you. Many have failed, but many have succeeded.

You have to take a giant step if you want to be successful.

Those who follow this way of life are transformed people, who are no longer their old selves.

After you learn the Divine Principle, can anybody erase it from your brain?

Even if you went away from this teaching and you won a million dollars living a lavish lifestyle, no one would be able to eradicate this Principle from your mind.

Would becoming a millionaire satisfy you if you know you were not following God's will?  No one can be happy until he lives up to the requirements of the Principle way of life.

Doesn't the truth ring clear in your heart?  It may be raining or murky day where you are, but now you think it is a sun shiny day, correct?


When I came to America  in 1973, I foretold this nation's decline. I declared that the United States must turn around and make a change, but nobody took me seriously. People laughed at me then, but now many of those who mocked me have come to the realization that I was correct. The problems haven't ended-ten years from now you will see people weeping as they realize how right I was.

I have done my duty in the sight of God. 

Father received the mandate from God and has done his best to fulfill that requirement.  He has dealt with the highest possible authorities in this nation, and carried out his mission for the sake of America.

People in the nation have not treated him with courtesy, and have done a lot of wrong to him.  He was able to transcend his personal feelings by acting for the sake of he nation and the world.

Who would be more correct.  The one living in this way for God or the government administration?

History will be the best judge.  There will be a time when people will understand this content and flock to Father's tomb to pay their respects for the great works he has done for this nation.  His tomb will receive homage more than any President that held office.

There is hope for America.

There will be a new generation of people that will crop up and understand the true value of this movement and push forward to bring Heaven on Earth.   People may not be able to understand this today, but in the future, they shall know this content and want to take action.

Wouldn't this be so?

You know this is true in your heart.

The world is moving toward a God-centered culture step-by-step.  You will see that this is true.


I know this like I know the sunlight. I see this truth so clearly. Once we turn America around, the whole world will turn around. Think about it. The United States is a gigantic country, so it's not going to be easy to turn it around. I knew this from the outset.


Where are you?  Are you moving forward or standing still?

Many people think they are moving forward based on certain goals.

There are three people among you: One is indeed moving forward, another is standing still and another is retreating.

Which group do you belong?

You are only fooling yourself if you say you don't know your status.  You do know where you are precisely.

Which person would get the approval rating of 100 percent: the one who just sits around and relaxes, going slowly everyday or the one moving forward constantly without stopping?

Of course, it is the one who is moving and pushing forward beyond any obstacles.  Why don't you give yourself a grade?  Are you 100, 50, 30 or minus 30 percent?  Is anyone below minus 100 percent?

There should be someone who is spying on us from the communist camp to the speech because they believe that this information is very vital.  Maybe the CIA. The communist that participates listening to this speech is really at 100 percent.

To do this work, you have to be at least above the 50 percent mark.  Those of you who think you are above that standard might wonder why you should even march forward since no one else went ahead of you and no one is behind you.

You might think that you should turn around and join everybody else even if they are going in the wrong direction.

Those of you who are above 50 percent are you going forward? Are you 50 and going up or 50 and going down?

After you hear or read these speeches that last for an hour and a half, you are a new person afterward.  You think that you have changed much.  You then feel a great power surging through you that makes you want to shout in agreement.

But when it comes time to do the mission a couple of hours later, you will discover that you have a mountain of work waiting on you.  You will wonder where all your energy went.

Living this way of life living to witness to others the truth of the age, you will find the same old peanut butter and bread when you go in the kitchen.  Once you see that Sunday is not a holiday for you and you do not have time to watch television, you wonder why you are doing this kind of work.

Well, there's one simple solution: quit.

Even the Messiah has the option to quit, as well.  Would anybody volunteer to take his job?  He is confronted with terrible news and difficult situations being told of accidents and problems all of the time.  Then there are campaigns, fundraisers, new developments and problems that need to be solved in every country.

As this movement spreads around the world and members become part of all kinds of intense activities, we suffer casualties the same as people dying in the front line during war time.

Once you are able to face one problem, you wonder how you will handle another.

Father listens so much discouraging, shocking and agonizing things that happen day after day.

Conscientious people, especially young people who are on the side of God, can you say that you are indecisive, mediocre or half-hearted?

If you are at the 50% point, you are 150 points away from the minus 100% point. If 100% on the plus side is the destination, you have only 50 more points to go.

Which direction would you choose if you are wise?  Should you choose the plus or minus?

The most important thing is do not stand still.

You must be constantly moving forward the same as running water.

This world is stagnant corrupt and rotten.  The world's water is too impure for drinking.  But, if you are able to become running water, everybody will come to drink and be nourished.

So, where are you now: standing still or moving forward?  Moving forward or moving backwards?




Return for Tomorrow's Post: Can a Selfish Person Change?


This post was rewritten from the speech Everybody is Headed Somewhere

Man and Woman Created for Each Other

Woman was born to meet man, and man was born to meet woman, right? This is the very truth. Therefore, according to this principle, we must go out in search for the realm of blessing. It is the most evil to leave this realm of the very truth.

With the current climate of freedom viewed as 'do whatever you wish just as long as you don't hurt anybody' makes it unbelievably hard to reinforce sexual mores into society and the youth.  Any traditional views will be seen as outdated or stifling of one's freedom to do whatever they want.

Why was a man created?

It was not for study, money, or power. It was for woman. For woman, man was created. The reason man's bones are made stronger than woman is not for him to earn money and live by himself. It is to support his wife and children.

The physical organs of man are different from those of woman. For who are they for? They are not created for yourselves. Man's were made for woman, so it's the woman's. Woman's is, therefore, man's. Have you ever thought this way?

Fundamentally, why was man created?  Did God create humanity so they can enjoy studying, obtaining money and power?

God created man for woman.  For woman, man was created.

The love that man likes is not his own, and the love that woman likes is also not her own. Isn't that right? 

What is the best thing in the world?  Is it having achieved success with money, career and house?  If you are all alone wouldn't you want to love or be loved by someone?

No man was born because they had the desire to be born.  Woman, which a man needs, is also not born because she desired to be born.  As we get older we realize our roles as man and woman and after growing older as a man and woman we realize that each other is a necessary being to become a husband and wife.

When we look at one man, a bachelor we see that he has to be with a woman.  When we look at one single woman, she also has to be with a man.  

What if man was born and found out there is only other men, how would he feel?  The same for women, would she be happy to be born into a world of only women?

The reason you are born as a woman is because there is a man who needs you. 

At the same time, the reason I was born as a man is because there is a woman who needs me. Isn't that so?

We were born knowing everything.

Love cannot be realized alone or from myself.  So where does it come from?  It comes from an object.
If we are born to live by the heavenly law of 'live for the sake of others' then we must humbly lower our head and live for the sake of the object.  It is precious when we realize instead of trying to receive we see the need to form this philosophy of living for others.

Love is what even God cannot realize alone. Love can always be realized through a reciprocal base. Where does love begin from? It does not begin from myself, but it grows up from a spouse.

Human beings have love. However, love does not appear when a person is alone. When man is alone, love does not appear. When a woman stands in a reciprocal position, then love appears. When a partner in a reciprocal position appears, then love appears for the first time.

God cannot realize love alone.  It can only be realized through a reciprocal base.

When we speak about parental love or conjugal love, we are definitely not talking about love that is centered on 'myself' that starts from oneself.  We are speaking about a love that begins from a partner in a reciprocal position.


Who is the master of love?

The partner who is in this reciprocal position is the master of love.

When two people of the opposite sex realize the harmony of love, a circular movement is formed.  When this couple unite with love and bear fruit, God will come down to man and man will rise toward God with them meeting at the central point.  God thus becomes the centripetal point which is able to reach out to any four directions.  With God as the central point where the harmony is realized, the life begins and mutuality starts.

The strongest power that embraces and activates everything in the universe is love.  

The providence of love which was hidden for thousands of years was revealed by Dr. Reverend Sun Myung Moon. This foundation has been trying to spread through the marriage blessing, forming the place of holy of holy of love, in order to return this world into the ideal of creation which God planned in the beginning.  We must understand that new life and a world of peace begins here in the Completed Testament Age.

Where is the central point for all physical cells and spiritual elements to become 100 percent united?

When man and woman come into puberty, the period where they are to become physically and spiritually matured, they come to the road of love where both the body and spirit completely resonate and become perfect.

What do you think the color of love would be like? Do you think that it would be black at night, white during daytime, and yellow during evenings? What do you think the color of love would be like? Therefore, if we happen to carelessly enter the place of Holy of holy of love, we would be burnt and be killed.


The Color of Love

What does the color of love look like?

In the center color of love, there is a strength that can bring peace and unity, a strength that can form a thought of equality of mankind.

Isn't this concept beautiful?  Yet the color of love in today's American society is the color of terrible death!  Instead of realizing a beautiful ideal world of creation, we are sinking into the den of death.  Women and men are supposed to keep their holy of holies for their time of blessing and then once they love one another they continue to love. However, the American public have become like villians invading the Holy of holy of love.


Americans who are not able to see marriage as a blessing from God are like patients with bad eyesight not able to see into the future.  If America continues on this destructive path, the won't be hope for tomorrow only desperation and will self destruct by God's Word and by men who have lost their humanity.


Isn't America witnessing this kind of destruction already?

Where is God's Holy of Holies?

It is the sexual organs of man and woman before the fall where love dwelt. This is the Holy of Holies of Heaven.  What is love? Love is the Holy of Holies where God can dwell.

We have already made clear that Adam and Eve who had to pass the period of adolescence without any problem, failed to do so and went off the track, which became the fall.

The only way to completely clean this Fallen world is through love.  We know that Adam and Eve fell before they had matured past the adolescence period and went off the track taking their future descendants with them.

They had an illicit love affair with the archangel Lucifer and fell.  Then Eve fell physically when she bonded sexually with Adam.  Therefore, humanity has inherited the tainted blood lineage of sin unceasingly passing it on to later generations.

Therefore, God has been carrying on this providence of restoration in order to make man cleanse their sins through indemnity.  Even in the human society when a woman gets married for the second time, there is no reason that the husband would love her if she had not yet forgotten her ex-husband.

God cannot dwell where traces of Satan remain.  To receive God's love we must first die and be re-born again.

What is the bridegroom before the bride?

He is the world-level, virtuous man.  We have heard of a virtuous woman before, we haven't heard about a virtuous man.  Jesus was the virtuous man before the whole mankind who is in the bride's position.

Jesus was the man officially recognized by heaven and earth, the history, the present and future as the man of man.

The Christians are doing this kind of a game. From a position like a beggar, Christians are saying to the prince of God, "Oh, my bridegroom, please come."

You become a robber if you try to become a bride of Jesus before becoming a virtuous woman.  If a woman was living in a cave among robbers, she would be thought of as crazy to say that her husband is the world famous celebrity or the President.  Christians have a tradition of this kind of game. From the position of beggar they say to the prince of God, "My bridegroom please come".

Christians wear rags but tell God's son to come live with them.  This has caused Jesus a deep resentment which he has to be liberated.

God also needs to be liberated.

Therefore, the whole creation could not be liberated as well.  This is the reason for the Second Coming because he was unable to fulfill the bridegroom position and instead went the way of the cross as a secondary choice of salvation for humankind.

Are we children of God allowed to love someone any way we wish or not?

Suppose a man was to call you out on the street, are you to follow him?  You should not have this kind of nature.  We should protect our physical body until the time comes and avoid letting a goblin of a man take over your heart.

Should you let your fate be taken over by such a man?

This problem is not simple.  We only have one fate in  life time and any wrong step and our life can become unstable throughout our life.  Right?

We have been emphasizing purity for women, but this same rule applies to men. Men should also keep their purity, then everything can be restored.  No matter how evil or rough this world may be, we should not be distracted and turn from the original way.

Our adolescence is a precious time when we cleanse and indemnify the purity lost by Adam and Eve during their youth.  This time should be preserved and not be ruined.

If you do not love the world, you would not be able to have a person you can love, and if you do not love God, you would not be able to have a person you can love either. 

After you have loved God, world and the people, then you can love your spouse - this is Principle.

What difference does it make to have a university-level education if a person has lost the value of love? Education only gives limited knowledge in a certain field which can only create an individualistic, materialistic person.

Korean soy bean stew can only taste delicious when served in an 'tok pe gi' which is an earthen bowl.  Just the same, when one is training the personality, it can only be fulfilled to its goal when it is done based on love.

World civilization must flower based on an artistic harmony. 

If you really know the real taste of soy bean soup, you will never be able to forget it wherever you go.
Similarly, if a man tastes the real taste of love even once, he will never be able to change.

On the other hand, if we can find love anywhere and it is easily obtained like instant foods, we would not be able to say that it is True Love.

We see people are making love like instant food.  This is the problem.  Love will not be deepened when one takes a bath in perfume;love will only be deepen, purified and last longer when a couple living on the country side take a cold bath and sleep together.

Is a couple practicing true love if they must brush their teeth in order to kiss each other?

People who have to do this in order to kiss, is it to taste the love of each other or the toothpaste?  The smell of the toothpaste will get in the way of enjoying the taste the individual body order.

In recent generations, we have seen deceitful, artificial and mathematical love spread like wild fire at such a level that it confuses our concept of what true human happiness is.  This kind of love is the main criminal leading the world to destruction.

If all mankind meets man to woman or woman to man based on the theory of reciprocal partnership, there would occur no accidents or acts violating the order of love. The order of true love would be formed when man and woman meet based on the theory of a reciprocal partnership.

When you meet the person you like or love, it is natural for two people of the opposite sex to want to hug or kiss one another.  I try to get in contact with the environment in order to love this universe.  This is a natural act of human beings in order to find a reciprocal partner.

However, if you stand in a position violating the order, ignoring and denying the environment, the ideal order of love cannot be set up.


Return for Tomorrow's Post:  Why Do We Marry?
  
This post was rewritten from the speech: The Love of True Man and Woman

The Important Thing We Need Most

"What is the most important thing, the one thing we need more than anything else? It is not money, power or knowledge. It is true love. True love is more precious than life itself and more important to us than air or water."

Could this be true?  What about eating, or sleeping and especially isn't making love the most important?  In the context of obtaining true lasting happiness, do any of the above have eternal qualities or leave us lacking once we obtain it?

Then why is true love so precious and important?  Each of us, whether we recognize it or not, want to see God and God wants to see true human beings.  God can only interact with humanity through a mediator, but when we acquire absoluteness, we can relate directly to God.

If God chose either man or woman as more important they would complain.  So, God placed love in the center of man and woman.  Through true love, God can touch and share with men and women at the same time once they center their life living for one another centered on true love.

If God placed something else in the center as the most valuable thing in the universe, men and women would fight each other to try to claim it for themselves instead of uniting and becoming one centered on it.  Once we realize that love has the highest value in the universe, we will strive to live for each other.

We will become one with each other in order to share the happiness that this love brings and possess this love together.

"Everyone likes love. Love is the only thing that can satisfy all human desires. God’s providence of salvation stems from the principle of love."

Are you aware that you have a spirit body that mimics your physical body?  Just as much as you hunger for food to keep your body full of energy and alive, your spirit that lives within you also hungers.  It hungers for true love and for God's truth.  Your spirit body grows by feeding it spiritual food such as this.

This explains why no matter how much one obtains in the material world to satisfy their bodily needs, they still feel satisfied if they leave their spirit lacking.  It is almost like starving your spirit mind and body.

Fundamentally, love belongs to God. Yet even God cannot possess love all by Himself. Love requires a reciprocal partner. A man by himself or a woman by herself cannot experience love.

Women exist for the sake of men’s love and men exist for the sake of women’s love. It does not matter how handsome or beautiful a person may appear on the outside. In their heart, every person desires a mate who can give and receive the highest level of love.

Everything in the world exists in pairs of subject and object.  In the plant world, the animal world and in the world of human beings, we see the relationship of masculine and feminine or plus and minus.

Why does God create pairs?

Because God's purpose of creation was to fulfill the expression of love which cannot be obtained alone.  Every person desires love through the relationship of the opposite sex.  Love is the one power that absolutely no one can possess on their own.

Therefore, no matter how much in love a couple is, they have a nagging desire to share their love.  The only way to experience a higher love, a husband and wife need children to experience the profound joy of parental love.  There is no higher relationship than that of parent and child.

This is because God created the universe in order to fulfill the expression of love. All beings desire the experience of true love through a reciprocal relationship. Love is the one power in the universe that absolutely no one can possess by themselves.

Once we have a partner, however, love gives us the power to share the entire universe. Likewise, a husband and wife need children in order to experience the profound joy of parental love.

Thus, we can say that God created human beings and the universe as His reciprocal partners in order to bring about true love.

"All types of love – including love of children, love of siblings, love of husband and wife, and love of parents – come about through the unity of subject and object partners. When two partners become one in true love, it is impossible to separate them. If for any reason, separation occurs, true love is destroyed. Therefore, in true love, there is no concept of divorce."

A man's love in his heart is awakened because of a particular woman.  This feeling in his heart cannot be created alone.  Likewise, the fire of love is kindled in the heart of a woman because of man who is her reciprocal partner.  She does not feel love alone.

This means without our partner, we cannot feel true love.  This means our partner has a great value and our love belongs to our partner.  Because we cannot feel true love without our spouse, we should honor our partners to have even greater value than our love.  We should be grateful for our spouse and live our life for their sake.

A couple who loves and live for one another can never be separated no matter what mountain comes before them.  This is the basic reasoning that makes couples blessed in marriage to live together eternally even after death.

"When husbands and wives live for each other, respect each other and become completely one through true love, it will be possible for the lineage of Satan to be rooted out completely."

True love comes through both horizontal and vertical relationships.

A horizontal relationship of true love is gradually elevated in a vertical direction until it eventually reaches the pinnacle. This point is the position of the "King and Queen of True Love."

Once this true position is reached, everything is balanced and embraced.  Everything is crystallized into love, and everything will bloom centered on this kind of love centered on God in the vertical position.

We are born for the sake of love, to live for the sake of love and finally die for the sake of love.  This is why every person on earth yearns to be transformed by love and live in the midst of love.

Did you know that not only humans desire love?  God created the whole creation for love.  As masterpieces of God's creation, we humans should teach the creation how to love.  The whole creation is groaning while it waits for a true man and true woman.

Creation longs to receive love and experience God's love through a true man and true woman who have become one with God at the pinnacle of true love.

This is the meaning of the third great blessing which is for man to have power over the creation through God.  Yet, we truly have not fulfilled this.  Instead, we see a world full of people misusing God's creation for temporary gain and destroying nature.  It is truly a shame that we have not realized this high degree of love we were to inherit directly from God.

"All beings want this so that they can participate in a higher level of love. Through this process, they ultimately reach the position where they can experience the love that is nearest to God, who is the origin of love. All beings have the essence of true love as their ultimate goal."

God created all beings on a certain level to have a relationship with a partner.  This relationship continues through being absorbed by a higher level of love.  For example, minerals want to be absorbed into plants, which are absorbed by animals and finally all of creation wants to be absorbed by human beings.



From God's point of view, a plant gladly lives for the sake of survival of a higher being the animal and the animal with love wants to be absorbed by a being that is united with God.

This way they, too become a higher being.  Communism wants the world to live for the government absolutely benefiting only itself.  In nature, an animal gives it life to a perfected person through love.


Even the government is supposed to be in a servant position to its people and govern through love not law.

In His wisdom, God created everything with a purpose.

For example, creatures with elongated shapes, such as eels and worms which fish like to eat, provide ingredients for natural medicine. Creatures on a higher level are meant to consume beings on a lower level. Without this process, the universe could not exist.

Darwin's theory regarding the survival of the fittest needs to be reexamined in the context of this logic of love. Even ants and microorganisms want true love so much that they will die to become part of an entity of greater love.

 Because of this principle, human beings, who are created as the highest partners of God's love, can consume all creatures. We can enjoy everything that we desire, but there is one condition: that we do so with a heart that represents the love of God, the Creator.

God's original plan was for the first humans endowed with his spirit to live centered on true love.  After their perfection, they were to become the seed for the world's family and become citizens of the Kingdom of Heaven.

This can only be achieved in accordance to God's tradition of true love.  The world today is in opposition to God's original plan.

"The words that I am sharing are in direct opposition to the theories of Charles Darwin. Yet it is through these words, not Darwin’s theories, that we will achieve a world of peace. This is because my words witness to the fundamental principles of creation."

Reverend Moon, the author of the Divine Principle, gives a good explanation why the Communist ideal that uses Darwin's Theory of Evolution, is not fully correct:

"Darwin proposed in his theory of evolution that species evolve through a process of natural selection based on random mutations. Such a theory implies that there is no fundamental meaning, order or goal in the development of the natural world.

Today, scientists and others are debating between the theory of evolution and the creation theory. The word "creation" acknowledges the existence of God, the Creator. There is a purpose embodied in God's act of creation. Subject and object partners unite to achieve a higher purpose.

Communist theory, based on materialism, also lacks the element of purpose. God's creation embodies the purpose of true love, whereas Communism only has struggle and destruction. Thus, it is destined eventually to disappear!"SMM
