Conditions for Satan’s accusations

To God, the devil is the adulterer of love. So far, God has been dealing with all the accusations the devil, the adul­terer of love, has been making. God had to persevere in His heart until today in order to redeem the condition that would enable Him to say in front of all human­kind that He loved the devil. Why is that so? Had the archangel not fallen, he would have remained an archangel, but could not have entered heaven without being loved by God. God and His sons and daughters enter heaven only after they are able to love the archangel. That is why Satan accuses them. He says, “I did become the devil, but Your principle of creation, the original principled stan­dard remains intact. So isn’t it the rule that You and Your children cannot go to heaven unless you and they love me?” When Satan says this, God has to say “yes.” Until now, Satan has been grasp­ing God by His neck and accusing Him. (185-56, 1989.1.1)

Who is Satan? He is the adulterer of God’s love. This malicious scoundrel destroyed the moral principles of heav­en and still he is shamelessly holding onto humanity living on the earth, he is gnawing at people, stripping everything from them and abusing them. He says, “I will cram these scoundrels into a trash can in hell. If I leave them alone, they will return to God in an instant, because they have an original mind that leads them to Him.” When the spring comes, even withered tree branches start bud­ding in the morning spring sunlight. In the same way, if you only give freedom to a person’s heart, his original mind will naturally turn to God. That is why Satan is so harsh, trying to throw peo­ple into hell. Yet they do not know about it. I am calling upon you to liberate and unify humanity which is not aware of its miserable destiny. Let us unify it. (142-281, 1986.3.13)

At any cost and through any sacrifice we have to settle the score with the adul­terer who offended our Father. However we cannot do it with guns and swords. Unless we have a greater love, there is no way to exact repayment from him; that is how I see it. Therefore God can take the position according to the original prin­ciple of creation only after He is able to love His enemy. Why? It is because origi­nally, at the time of creation, the devil, Satan, who is the archangel, was sup­posed to be loved by God. Since he was meant to receive love eternally, he still has a firm grip on God, and says, “If You want to be God, You must establish the principle that would provide for You to love me, even though I have fallen; oth­erwise You cannot stand in the posi­tion of the Ruler of this universe!” This is where the problem lies. This is truly a stunning truth. (120-266, 1982.10.17)

According to the original Principle of Creation, human beings were to be God’s sons and daughters. But due to the Fall, they became Satan’s children. Thus, God has been fighting with the adulterer Satan, face to face. Until now God has been employing a strategy to prevent the rise of the conditions that lead to Satan’s accusation and to take humanity back from him. Christians have had no idea about God’s dreadful situation. They think only of the glori­ous God, saying, “Oh, great God dwell­ing in the glory of heaven and earth!” (41-301, 1971.2.17)

Who is Satan? To God he is the adul­terer. Forgiving the adulterer would go against the heavenly principle, so God cannot forgive him. Therefore, even though God can forgive the people of the satanic world a hundred or a thou­sand times, He absolutely cannot forgive Satan. That is why the great judgment will come. Who will be judged in the great judgment? It is not human beings, but Satan, who dwells like a master in their souls, who will be judged. (22-282, 1969.5.4)

Satan is the enemy who violated love. He is a wretched thief who entered the house while the parents were asleep, murdered the father and raped the mother. Who is Satan? He is the enemy of love who raped God’s beloved Eve, God’s partner in substantial form.

We must have a heart that is able to give the person we love most to such an adulterer and still bless him. You can­not love the enemy merely by forgiving him. Will Satan thank you just for for­giving him? We must have such a heart that we are able to bless our enemy even after giving him our only beloved. This is the final obstacle we must surmount. Yet, people say that they will go to heav­en due to their faith alone, don’t they? (34-278, 1970.9.13)

Christians believe that Adam and Eve fell by eating the fruit, after the serpent incited them with whispered words. They have no idea of the work­ings of fundamental principles. You cannot imagine how sad, miserable and frustrated God is because of this. He is sadder, more frustrated and more miserable than anyone in history. The moment Adam and Eve ate the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil God’s heart nearly burst with dis­tress. And yet, God could not help lov­ing them. You must understand this. (21-141, 1968.11.17)

When Adam and Eve were about to eat the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, do you think God said, “It is just what I expected. Go ahead!”? Certainly not! His heart withered and all senses focused on that place. God was trembling and bleeding. He felt like crying out “You must not eat the fruit!” Because of such indescribable sorrow and frustration He was unable to think of anything else. That must have been God’s situation. Do you think God sim­ply watched Adam and Eve eat the fruit of good and evil? If He had had a sword He would have wanted to cut out that history, cut out the whole world, but His position did not allow Him to do that. All He could do was be overwhelmed with grief. (21-141, 1968.11.17)

If Adam and Eve had been able to fathom God’s inner heart, they could not have possibly fallen. God loved His children as a Parent, but they did not understand the depth of His paren­tal heart. Of course Adam and Eve fell while they were still young, but their young age itself was not the cause of the Fall. Rather, they fell because they were lacking in heart. Had they been able to feel, “He is living for me. He can never, ever be separated from me. He is involved in everything related to me,” they would not have committed the Fall. Ultimately Adam and Eve fell because they could not reach unity in heart with God. This dreadful problem occurred because their desires deviated from God’s desires and the direction of their thinking was different from the direction of God’s thinking. (65-173, 1972.11.19)

A robber killed the original father and raped the mother. Fallen human beings today are in the position of chil­dren who were born from that relation­ship. Who is Satan? He is the enemy of God’s love. Satan is the adulterer who violated the children of God, so even the God of love cannot forgive him. There is no way to forgive the adulterer of love. Others can be forgiven, but Satan can­not. If he is forgiven, the heavenly law will break down. (41-197, 1971.2.15)

We are fallen descendants who betrayed God’s heart. Do you know what it was that our ancestors betrayed? Do you think that they just ate the fruit of good and evil that God had forbid­den them to eat? No. They betrayed God’s heart. That is the problem. What kind of heart did they betray? It was the heart of the ideal of creation, the heart filled with hope. (9-112, 1960.4.24)

Why can’t we cut Satan away at once? Why can the almighty God not do it immediately? It is because this problem has to do with lineage. If God tried to remove this lineage all at once He would have to exterminate the entire human race. If the blood we inherited from Satan were to be extracted, human beings would disappear. Even Adam and Eve would disappear. Human­kind would have to be totally crushed. Why could God not eliminate Adam and Eve and create new ones? He is not supposed to create people anew. Love is the alpha and the omega, the begin­ning and the end. This became the ideal standard. God therefore cannot strike human beings as the object partners of that love. You must understand this. (188-225, 1989.2.26)

How did Satan manage to oppose God for six thousand years? Until now Satan has been holding the Principle in front of God. Satan says, “God, can You punish me? If You want to punish me You must destroy heaven and earth first. When You created me, didn’t You intend to love me with the love belong­ing to the completion level, even though it would be only a love meant for an archangel?” Even the archangel must receive love that belongs to the com­pletion level even though it is the type of love befitting the archangel. So, the archangel would ask God, “When did You love me at the completion level?” Even God gets trapped at this point.

Did God love the archangel at the completion level? No, He was not able to. Only after God has loved the arch­angel in the Garden of Eden, in the free heaven and earth, with the love belong­ing to the completion level, is God’s responsibility fulfilled. Otherwise, God is trapped and He cannot move. (37-254, 1970.12.27)

The reason God cannot come down hard on Satan for killing millions of His beloved sons and daughters over the past six thousand years is because God is responsible for not having fully loved the archangel. For this reason, when­ever someone commits a wrong there is a continuous trail of Satan’s accusa­tions: “God, so and so is doing this and that.” Because the Unification Church emerged, we can know these things that no one previously understood. (35-95, 1970.10.4)

There has been no place for God to stand because He did not have a fil­ial son or a system of love that could uphold the heavenly kingdom by hav­ing people fulfill the way of a patriot, saint and divine son or daughter. Until now, God has been incarcerated and in confinement. The heavenly kingdom became an empty ruin. God has car­ried this sorrow in His heart. (302-226, 1999.6.14)
