Pyeong Hwa Gyeong (134) Book 8. The Reunification of Korea and World Peace CHAPTER 3. The Resolve of the World and the Korean People
3. A solution based on the proposition of God’s existence
Is there a genuine solution that can bring order to this global chaos? Should humanity resign itself and simply wait for the day of destruction? We never can allow that to happen. A fundamental solution to these problems does exist. That solution is based on the proposition that God, the Absolute Being, exists.
It is because the world that the absolute God seeks to realize on earth is a world of peace, a world free from confusion.
Without affirming the existence of God and His purpose behind creation, a resolution of the problems of today’s world is impossible. To put it another way, it is because people have been ignorant of God’s existence and His purpose of creation that the current world of chaos has come about.
The world that God sought to realize on earth is a true ideal, a world overflowing with freedom, peace and happiness. With this ideal in His heart, God has been sorrowful to this day, all the while seeking us on earth, even as we have continued to seek the ideal society despite the pain and chaos.
The ideal that God cherishes, and which He anxiously wishes to give us, and the ideal of human beings, who continue to seek it, are the same. Thus, God and humankind can be reunited. Once that happens, this vision will take shape immediately. Yet, people have suffered for a long time because this reunion between God and humankind in every field of endeavor has not taken place.
