Sermons of Rev Moon - August 28, 1971 - The Way Our Blessed Families Should Go 7

[대태양/김현수]

The meaning of the 120 couple blessing

Because Jesus’ not having built a Jewish foundation is an historical regret, 120 couples, who represent that standard, are the blessed couples who will dissolve that regret. Therefore, the 120 couples must stand on the front line and sacrifice themselves. Do you understand?

The regional leaders who were educated for mobilization last time were almost all 120 couples. 120 couples must sacrifice themselves. The 120 couples, representing the 120 disciples of Jesus’ time, are the national foundation representing the 120 nations in forming the worldwide tribes. Do you understand?

If the national foundation is the twelve tribes, the worldwide standard for starting, which can advance to the world, centering on that national standard, is the 120 disciples. What, then, is the reason for the demise of the 120 disciples? There were no 120 women like the 120 disciples. In this way, the will could not be fulfilled. Right? If, centering on Jesus, 120 women could unite and live together beyond life and death, the will would have been fulfilled even if Jesus went into the desert. Is it right? [Yes.]

Centering on this kind of traditional history, we must, in this time of Unification, form separately on a worldwide level a standard which can take the place of the 120 disciples, centering on the internal and the external. Therefore, since the world came to have more than 120 nations, representatives of those 120 nations, the holy grounds had been selected centering on 40 nations worldwide.

At this time, in the time when the Unification Church is going through the second seven year course and you also are going through the second seven year course, I have mobilized 1200 wives. This is an event that is one step beyond the time of Jesus, making a worldwide foundation through ten times 120. Do you understand? [Yes.] Before 1200 disciples appear, 1200 Eves are appearing, and you are going over the racial and worldwide destiny by absolutely uniting centering on the Eves. Right now, whether we can go over the fate of Korea and the fate of the world is uncertain. Do you understand?

This will go on until 1972. This is because 1972 is the time when Father has to dissolve through indemnity Jesus’ worldwide resentment (han) and at the same time make the line for a new, worldwide starting point. This is how it works.

Therefore, these couples can make an internal relationship directly with Father, and thus there will be entries in the family register. This is all principle. It is not guesswork. By doing these things, women’s history can be indemnified in this age. When did women pay the indemnity? What Mother is doing with the seven year course is just that. She is doing everything that is difficult in a woman’s work. Even when she is in the position of being discredited by the husband, she has to keep absolute faith.

Now is the time for family level pioneering

Adam and Eve were enemies, right? They were enemies who have placed death for each other in the place of life. To make them able to be welcomed as benefactors, even in the position of being enemies, Father has walked the indemnity course by fighting for seven years. Do you understand? In order for you to inherit that victorious foundation on the horizontal level centering on that standard, you must also make a victorious foundation centering on a woman. If Father and your wives unite, making a relationship with Father and preparing the ground for victory, you will automatically enter the position of becoming victorious. In this way, historical indemnity will all be done. Cain and Abel’s indemnity will be done, and Adam’s, Eve’s and the archangel’s indemnity will be done.

Can your children oppose you even after paying the Cain and Abel indemnity? Can your mother and father oppose you? Your mother and father will be able to support the will. Isn’t that right? Moreover, if you are the archangel, Father is Adam, right? Therefore, without Father’s permission do not go near Eve. There is no other way.

In the sixties, Father did pioneering using women. Right now is the family level pioneering age. Along this line, if the women of the families of Korea say, “Let’s restore our nation and our people” and rally forth trying to eliminate the 38th parallel, carrying guns and knives and centering themselves on the whole nation, on that day, North Korea will crumble. Do you understand?

You are going downwards in order to prepare a horizontal foundation. If there comes a man who chooses a foundation based on unity and makes a victorious foundation, the woman has to absolutely trust that man. Therefore, the woman who does not know anything is the best for being Mother. Why? It is for increasing the quantity of value by adding onto the condition of absolute faith. Do you understand? When Father needs an object, if a person, through the spiritual world, becomes the object, at that time it is not good to be dominated by the spiritual world. The person who can be Father’s object has to be under twenty years old. It is the age when Adam and Eve fell. At the age of 41, Father received an 18-year-old girl who had no worldly knowledge. Thinking in terms of the problems of the world, it is almost absurd. It was not because there weren’t any other girls. There were plenty of women who graduated from universities and who had such and such credentials.

What has to be done in selecting mother? She cannot be chosen from a complete family. Mother’s mother had to become a kitchen maid in this place. It means being loyal from the humblest position. She was in a circumstance equal to living in prison, but that was all her blessing. Unification Church life means not feeling resentful even when living a prison life and suffering. It means thinking that everything is my fault and always attempting to be loyal to heaven. Seen from this point of view, everything is chosen according to the principle of restoration. Moreover, what kind of course does the person to be Mother have to go through in terms of lineage? It is not simple.

I looked at the ancestry of the Moon clan in secret, and the Moon clan started from an illegitimate child. If you look at the clan register, it started when a king of the Shilla dynasty, King Chabi, had a dream where he was ordered to find a special baby born in Shilla. He found the baby at a rock of Phoenix called Moon Am Bong at Nam Pyung city, and the clan started from this incident. Looking from a providential point of view, the founder of Hwa Rang ideology (Shilla dynasty, Buddhist teaching for the discipline of young people to observe filial piety, fidelity, loyalty to the nation and compassion toward nature) had the last name of Moon. Nobody knows this. This kind of complicated matter is entangled in the ancestry of the Moon clan.

Then, does only man have to be restored through indemnity? It cannot be dissolved without a woman standing in the position of being victorious. Right? Cannot have any starting point. Therefore, in the second seven year course, the church was not the serious issue. From 1964, I did not give sermons from the podium. I left it all to the president and walked the family-level course. After going through the individual cross, I had to bear the family level cross. Do you understand? You do not have that cross. Father has to bear the individual and the family-level cross in terms of the world. Do you understand? We must confront Satan.

The situation of today’s world seen from the principle of restoration through indemnity

Next, Father has to bear the national indemnity on the worldwide level. Thus, we have entered the time when we have to decide the worldwide fate while deciphering the situation of the world. By sitting here alone, I am connecting the bridge from China to Japan. Father’s moral and spiritual influence is greatly increasing. This time when Kuboki is going to America, he is bringing a man named Hirodo. He was taking care of the Japanese Consulate General in America in the past. As a New Yorker, he has quite an authority in Japan’s main political party, Jamindang. He is going as a delegate after receiving a personal letter from the former prime minister Kishi. Japan’s Jamindang is being suspended. Sato’s political regime has nowhere to go. Therefore, after devising a context that could allow Fukuda to remain as the prime minister, he goes to America and opens the door to do that within the government and people of the United States. Fukuda goes there, stays put, then seeing his chance, returns. He is going there in advance in order to make an unexpected adventure. Father is creating the spiritual context for all of these things to occur.

Chiang Kai Shek of Taiwan’s government is also influenced by Father’s moral authority. This time the Japanese Unification Church did a seven-day fast for the protection of Taiwan. Therefore, If Kuboki goes there, he is welcomed and loved. The archangel has to serve the Church president of Eve’s country. Everything has to be restored. Why did Chiang Kai Shek become a historical man of Asia? It is to restore the Rock (Chiang Kai Shek’s Shek) [’Shek’ means rock in Chinese characters]. Isn’t this true? It is the history of restoring the rock. China is an archangel country.

Japan is an Eve country. Thus two male countries were influenced. With some mistake, Korea could perish, and China could be ruined. That is why Japan is an Eve country. This is because Father has chosen Japan to be the Eve country. In the 1920s, Japan became a beautiful woman without a match in the world. Right? When going away to a husband, you do not carry a knife around. You must go with some money. Therefore, Japan until now has been without defense forces. But in the future, don’t you think that that will change?

If you look at China and the Soviet Union, even the satanic world comes with formation, growth, and completion. The formation stage nation is the Soviet Union, the growth stage nation is China, the completion stage nation is North Korea’s Kim Il Sung. The growth stage is equivalent to the Eve type. Also, Kim Il Sung is in the position of Adam, and the position of the archangel is the Soviet Union. Soviet Union and America are both in the archangel position, and therefore will cooperate with each other. Do you understand? Since the time of restoration is coming and since the world should not die out, the heavenly fate turned around, and America and the Soviet Union who were enemies joined forces. The first worldwide fence surrounding all nations is bound to join hands together. Even Red China will be surrounded and have to come out of their internal dealings.

In the democratic world, if America is the archangel country and Japan is the Eve country, Korea is the Adam nation. All three have to cooperate with each other. Therefore, the Eve nations, Japan and China, are wrestling. Adam and Adam, that is, South Korea and North Korea, are wrestling. Archangel and archangel, that is, America and the Soviet Union, are wrestling. In that, the Soviet Union will be drawn to America. It will be attracted in. Then what is the heavenly fate from now? The time to influence the destiny centering around the Eve nation’s national fate comes. But looking at both Japan and China, Japan will be pulled by China. This should not happen. It will perish. Therefore, it has to come around from here. It comes around interestingly. By becoming this way, in Asia, all are gathered, centering around China and Japan. Right? America, the Soviet Union, all are gathered here. After gathering, they made a big scene and then all of them were broken apart. Because of China, the Soviet Union broke apart, and because of China, North Korea separated. Right? Moreover, because of Japan, America broke apart, and Korea broke apart. Thus it is inevitable that the Unification Church’s Reverend Moon has to work something out. In this way Korea will never break apart.

Then in the Asian domain, in terms of foundation for restoration and centering on the environment for the restoration, who is the archangel? The archangel in the Asian domain is Chiang Kai Shek. The archangel is the formation type. It happens in the formation type because centering on Father, fulfillment happens in three stages. Then who is the growth level type archangel? It is America. Who is perfection level archangel? West Germany. Then is the Satanic Adam and the world level archangel one? Both of them are separated. America is separated by the left wing and the right wing. Everything is divided, You must know this. When there is a four position foundation. (A blackboard demonstration) This kind of four position foundation shape is happening. Korea and the part must be separated. One nation must be cut in two. Right? All become left and right wing, America and the Soviet Union. And then Korea, which is one nation, becomes two. West Germany becomes two countries. When these two nations are decided, the world will enter an era of heavenly peace. Will this be true or not? Korean unification, German unification, east, west unification, when all these happens, communism will completely …

In this viewpoint, you must know that until the blessed family is able to emerge, the individual has to pay the indemnity. You were able to form families because of Father’s accomplishments that came about through bloody battles. In the first process, the individual restoration took six thousand years. Secondly, the restoration of the family took a seven year course until now. For the third course, the way of the cross to restore the children remains.

If Christianity becomes one centering on the Unification Church, the world will be turned around

In our family centering on Sung Jin, I thank Hui Jin for his passing. His character could deviate if something goes wrong. If that happens, Satan will accuse the whole. If you look at his abilities, he is a very active person. He has quick wit and is very masculine. In this sense, I was very worried. Even in Father’s family, the second is separated. Right? It is easy for that to happen. That is the principle of restoration. When I see this situation, ah, the fact that he passed away is a big sorrow. However, think also that it is not a loss in terms of the physical world. So, now if Sung Jin does well and sets the right tradition, his younger brothers will naturally follow. Right? The important matter here is Sung Jin.

All this has to be known. In terms of types, Sung Jin is restoration of the Adam type and Hui Jin is restoration of the Jesus type. Jesus was sacrificed. Next, the age of Hyo Jin is the age of the Second Coming. There are altogether three ages. From the vertical standpoint, it is formation, growth and completion and for this to be connected … Therefore, what does Sung Jin have to do? He has to take this kind of responsibility. That is why he went to Japan. Sung Jin went and came back from Japan? I told him not to come back when he goes this time. If he comes back, he won’t be able to go out again.

What is Father’s worry right now? If one thing goes wrong going through the women, since Japan is an Eve nation, it will be entangled in something. It could be drawn in with Satan’s work in a foreign land. It must come back after keeping its fidelity and chastity there. This is like Father’s past. What I am thinking now is that I should send someone, among Korean members, not among Japanese members, as missionary to a foreign country. I am not able to do this right now. I will do it in the near future. All this, while you are not thinking about it, is going on through the formula course of the restoration condition. I cannot go into the details.

On this kind of ground, the ground that was of the resolutions and fulfillments of a complicated, six thousand years of history, you have been chosen without any accomplishments. It is the archangel who was looked for in the six thousand years of history centering on religions. The religions until now were looking for the archangel.

Fallen man has been establishing the foundation to receive the Messiah, and believing in religions was to stand in the position of the adopted son. The adopted son is Cain-type and thus is in the position of the archangel. Right? Therefore, the purpose of the religions that have been believed until now is to make one worldwide archangel and make him a loyal servant to the Messiah. This is to be established through Christianity which is the world’s central religion.

There need only be one to three of that kind of loyal servant. Do you understand? It could just be one person representing all three, but three persons are inevitable. In any kind of meeting, there is a president but there inevitably are two other vice presidents and they move around with the combined decision of them all. If Christianity becomes one with the Unification Church the world will change. Then Korea will be revived. Communism will disappear. Think about it. Think about what will happen.

Upon this kind of foundation, if there is a person representing the democratic world, the nation, and Christianity, and he submits himself to God’s will, then at one time, the individual restoration, family restoration, tribal restoration, national restoration, and the world restoration would be accomplished. At one time, the grounds for family type victory, grounds for national victory, grounds for racial victory, and grounds for world victory will be prepared. Therefore, from here, perfection of the individual restoration, perfection of the family restoration, perfection of the tribal restoration, perfection of the national restoration, perfection of the world restoration will all be done at once. But because this did not happen, once again going through the indemnity course of the individual struggle, individual restoration has to be done. Through the indemnity course of the family-level struggle, family restoration has to be done. Through the indemnity course of the tribal struggle, the tribal restoration has to be done. You must clearly understand that this kind of reindemnification course of blood stained struggle is unfolding in a single generation of Father’s life.

I have reindemnified through offering my whole life until now what one person was supposed to have done. Therefore, if we go over the national standard, it becomes the time to solve the source of the resentment and regret of Christianity that was acquired through the failure centering on Jesus. In this way, finally, by taking the normal stance, we will be able to ascend as a son with a worldwide authority. This time is coming soon. Do you understand or not? [Yes, we understand.]

As the chosen people upon the grounds of an historical victory, we should fulfill our responsibility

By Father’s preparing that kind of base and accomplishing the resolution of the vertical history and the worldwide horizontal restoration, you, even without any accomplishments, were chosen just the way you were, on the basis of a victorious family. Then what kind of existence do you become? You become the beings who are standing on the place where the worldwide archangel has fulfilled his responsibility, that is, on the place where John the Baptist has completed his responsibility. You were just put there, just tagging along.

If you are to pay back the benefit that I have given you, you must suffer three times, seven times more than what Father has suffered. Do you understand what I am saying? Where there is a place to die, you are supposed to go out before all else, and die. If there is a place to suffer, you should go first to suffer. The ones who want to make Father suffer will not be able to stand in that kind of place. All of you, do you want to make Father not suffer hardships? Do you want to make Father suffer or do you not want to make Father suffer? [We do not want to make you suffer.] Is that true? [Yes.]

Look. The ones in the regional churches want help from the main headquarters when they have difficulties, but it was told not to give any help. This time helping each church a little was because of the Christian churches. Christian ministers are thinking it over and giving it a thought to join the movement, and should we be disgraced? In order not to receive shame, we should even put a shawl around, therefore we bought the land in Yoido.

They thought the Unification Church did not have any money and when we said, “Within three months we can pay about 5 to 6 hundred million won”, Seoul city hall’s major, bureau directors, and sectional chiefs all were listening to the Unification Church. For a few months, we were paying 150 million won in cash. I know that the richest man in Korea, Lee Byung Chul, does not even have 20 million won in cash. We have used a loan from a bank. When Unification Church pays in cash 150 million won to 200 million won, that is, about 5 to 6 hundred million won in a few months, would they think the Unification Church has the money or not? [They will think we have it.] Because of this, everybody believes that the Unification Church will build a 120-story building. If you look as you pass the Seoul Dae Bridge and look at Yoido’s air view photograph, the place where the tallest building in Korea is drawn is the Unification Church’s spot.

Korea must prepare at least symbolically. Do you understand? [Yes.] If we really want, would we just build a 120-story building? Even 12000-story would be possible. If that building falls, Korea might perish. That is why we are building only 120 stories. (laughter.) You can think like that.

If you are sitting in a dreadful, small bedroom and moving around with a rag over you, they might think you are a national chief of police force who stays like that even with a lot of money. If someone deals carelessly with you, he will face disaster. What do you think I have done until now? Many of the local officials respect our work. That’s what happens. It would do them no good to laugh at you because you are wearing rags. Did you ever do that? That is why it is more difficult nowadays. They will not feel pity for you. They will think that you have a hidden weapon. Even if you eat by begging, they will not pity you. That is why I am saying we have reached the tough road of crisis. Does the region say that the Unification Church does not have any money, or does it have money? [Have money.] Then why do you say that you are living that way? Why do you say that you are living that way? You at least feel good after hearing this.

You should advertise that Father will build 1000 churches in 40 days. Then everybody will ask, “What is going on?” Then, tell them like this, “We have bought enough land to build 1000 churches in the land, and this land somehow reached the price of 2 billion won.”

This time we gave out rooms nationwide because of our prestige. It is not the principled way to help you. Do you understand? Even taking the skin off your back, I should smudge it and sell it to make a bigger base to build something bigger than the Christian churches. It is not right for Father to help you right now. Have the right attitude. Do you understand? [Yes.] To express your sincerity, should you build your own house or let someone else build it for you? If you entrust a nation to that kind of person, he will probably sell the nation and keep the profit for himself. Would that be true or not? If I give because I want to, that’s okay. But if I give to you because you want to receive it, it would not be right.

“Father and Mother, I will receive your inheritance.” Can this kind of person be an honest person? There is the parable of the prodigal son. He receives as he desires and then goes off somewhere. He is going off to squander and waste. The parents should give when they want to. If you are a filial son, you should not receive from the parents but offer something to them, right? You should, in all four seasons and every time the season changes, offer a pair of clothes to your parents. You must do at least that much work. You should offer at least 12 pieces of clothing in a three-year period. Even fish, you should donate the biggest fish in the East and the West sea, one fish every season. Should I tell you more, or should I stop?

Even when you are eating, you are not supposed to eat alone. Even alone you have three family members. Including God, there are four. Do you think so? If there are less than eight family members, then there is no restoration, right? You cannot be restored without having eight family members inside and out. If there are eight family members, they will become twelve.

Is there not the four position foundation centering on Father? There is also a four position foundation based on each of you. Even your direct inheritor of your lineage will fulfill the four position foundation. So then how many are there? There are twelve. Do you understand? This is the domain of God’s side. You must make the number twelve centering on the four position foundation. Is this not the way it is supposed to be?

Do not lose the chance to shine on top of the public foundation

Do you now understand the individual? [Yes.] But only the individual standing is not enough. You must solve the indemnity course of the women. Who must solve this? It is not the woman but the man who must solve it for her. Eve was made from Adam. Is that not right? Because Adam lost his dominion over Eve, Eve fell. Therefore, in order to restore this, the man must indemnify even what the woman did and 7,000 years historical resentment through the seven-year course. This is the Unification Church’s family-level seven-year course. Do you understand? [Yes.] After this we go into the children’s age, and this is the national seven-year course.

Therefore, what happens when we go across to the 1980s? The second seven year course ends in 1974. Then when does the third seven year course end? It ends in 1981. If you do it by the multiplication table it is, “nine times nine equals eighty-one”. It is the year when the multiplication table is over. That’s how it works. Therefore, wait till you get to the 1980s. The Unification Church will fly silently towards the world. Do you like it? If I just give a phone call, there will always be plane tickets available. If I call, there will always be a hotel wherever you go. Even if somebody already made the reservation, you could cancel them all and go yourself. Do you feel good, or do you feel bad? [Good.] At that time Father will be in his sixties. I will be 61. That’s how old I will be. Until now, the number seven could not be passed. Within Father’s lifetime, we will go past that resting period and re-depart into the world. Is this not visible in your eyes? Ask the fortune teller whether this will become true. Will it be possible? [Yes.]

Father’s generation was a miserable generation. I must rearrange the history of the world and usher in world peace, and then for the internal 21 years. Do you understand, or do you not understand? [We understand.] Thus, the external 21 years from 1960 to 1981 and the internal 21 years until Father became 40 added together become 40 years. In this 40 years Father has to rearrange the world centered upon God. If this is not done, the fate of the Unification Church will become miserable.

God has always prepared things beforehand. For this, He is keeping time and going ahead of us to bequeath everything to us. God has prepared everything. Is this not so? [Yes.] Who would have known that there would be such a drastic change? Even though the Unification Church does not look like much, the whole world goes forth here and there following Father’s playing of the drum.

Is this a lie or the truth? [It is the truth.] If it is really true, wake up. History is short. If you stand on the front of the critical line and stand like this, you become a person of two countries. Standing on the 38th parallel, if you take a step forward, you will become victorious. We are in that kind of time. When you step forward, you are not the only one who is stepping forward. With a command, you can step forward together. When you do that, you will be enlisted in the first resurrection. That’s how it is. Do you want to join the first resurrection? [Yes.] This will remain in history. Thus, I might not give the blessing for seven years. Even now, aunts and uncles are making a commotion, but it does not even enter my mind. Right now is not that kind of time. Father will give the blessing only to those who will burst out to the front line right after the blessing. Will you receive the blessing just to go to the forefront? It is the principle to give the blessing if the person wants to go to the battlefront, not to give the blessing if he just feels that he is lonely and sad. You are supposed to ask that kind of thing only at certain times, when you are really sad. That kind of a thing comes out cut. It comes out by being pushed. Tears push that kind of question out. A lot came out?

Looking from this viewpoint, the fact that you, representing your ancestors to your clan until now, have met this glorious chance to shine brightly upon that ground of accomplishments is not exchangeable even with zillions of gold coins. In terms of the value of this, it is not exchangeable even with the best diamond in Korean land. Do you understand what I am saying? We met somehow. You might say that it is a good thing that we met, but it could turn out not only good but also bad. If you are pushed back from this, everything will be over.

A person, who has committed a crime and is in jail, is always thinking about his past crimes. “Oh! If I could had gone only one more step, then the situation would have been different.” Such thinking constantly evolves around him until he gets out of the jail. He cannot separate himself from it. If you go to jail, you will know this. Likewise, when you realize the fact that you have left such a tradition in your life and when you realize the value of such a fact, it is revealed all over heaven and earth and all nations will esteem and glorify it, Korea can be revived. At this time, if we who stand in such a situation make a mistake, then we will cause very great sorrow in the heart of our ancestors, to all tribes living on earth and to all descendants.

If a mistake is made, do you think our descendants would come and bow at our grave? They would detest and condemn us by saying, “You terrible ancestors.” We will come to be in the same position as Adam and Eve who are being condemned. Do you know this? In order not to leave such a unthinkable, fearful and shameful reality, I live with the heart that even when I cross a stream stepping on rocks, I think as if there is only one way to go. Do you understand? [Yes.] You are the people who have to inherit such a tradition and ideal. Therefore, I’m telling you to walk this path as a real man. Then I don’t think there will be any reason for me to hear many complaints because of your wives. In this place, there is no one who is in such a position. If you eat less than your children and wife, if you sleep in a worse place then they do, if you suffer much more than they do, how could they complain? It is simple this way.

Father is like that also. I’m not a person who wants to eat good food. I eat only because people give it to me. In such a situation, I always think about when I was in prison from December 14th until the 20th, I think of prison life. “Oh, today these people gave me this food and is there anyone who will accuse me because of this food on my table.” Therefore, if good food is placed on my table, then I don’t eat it, but always share it with someone else. Then, do I have food on my table because I wish to have it, or because members put it on my table? Members should offer food in this way. Then do you feel angry because Father ate well? [No.]

In order to be a filial son, even if you live in poverty you have to feed your parents well. You even have to sell your wife’s dress. Do you understand? [Yes.] Even if you have to starve your children, you have to serve your parents. That is the way of filial piety. Father has already practiced this. Isn’t that right? Therefore, Father is not an example of failure. Just as the teeth of gears mesh, causing the wheel to turn, the teeth which are meshed are going out and new teeth are being meshed in, thus the wheel spins.

Because Father has practiced this, you must inherit and practice this also. Somebody has to do this task on this earth, enabling the gears to mesh and turn. Centering on earth, heaven is starting to turn. The gear can spin if it has at least three teeth which are meshed together. Likewise, you have to do this. You have to establish a trinity, centering on Father. Trinity couples are fulfilling such a function. Following Father’s direction, unite into one. If you do this, then on this earth, such a tradition is established and will become a textbook for future education. Don’t you think so? This becomes the resurrected substantiation of history and the cause of the foundation which will be a testimony for the future. Isn’t this right? [Yes.]

How many times have you starved for the sake of God? How much have you longed with your eyes for people? This will become a problem. These things are things which I have established, persevering through incredible difficulties and sufferings. When I see your lifestyle, I don’t feel happy. I think I might have to go through such a path again. With bare feet I must run again. I have to repeat what Jesus did when he washed his disciple’s feet.

You can only stand on the foundation of Father, but you cannot stand by yourself. Do you understand? [Yes.] Centering on the family, inheritance is possible. By yourself, it is not possible to inherit anything. Jesus, by himself, cannot receive the inheritance, isn’t that right? Because Adam and Eve both fell, in order to inherit the world centering on the family, we have to present the content of indemnity. Otherwise, the process of inheritance is not possible.

Because of whom are you standing on this incredible position to receive a foundation? It is because of your wife, whom you really dislike to see. Do you like to see, or don’t like to see your wife? Do you like your wives, or not? You’re not standing in a position because of your merit. You can stand in this position because of a woman. Also a woman doesn’t stand here because of herself, but because of a man. The reason that you met in this position is because of each other. Without each other, this is not possible. You cannot possess the horizontal foundation, isn’t that right? [Yes.] You require a reciprocal foundation. The family is established centering on man and woman, and in a family, man and woman must meet and become totally united.

When a man and woman meet, centering on whom do they meet? You met centering on True Parents, but are still separated. You have to bear children and unite centering on your children. This is the standard of God’s desire and the standard of parent’s desire. Therefore, it is the duty of you who have families to receive God’s spirit and God’s love, and implant it in the right place. Do you understand? [Yes.] This is the way which our family must walk.

What is the way which our family must walk? We must become the true ancestor of goodness by implanting the model of the heavenly family. We must become the foundation for the blessed kingdom of heaven in which Satan cannot influence, but only God can. This is the way our family must walk. Do you understand? [Yes.] From this, the name of True Parent comes about. Here God’s victory emerges and true sons and daughters are able to be received, and all things can be embraced. Therefore, you can receive Parent’s Day, Day of All Things, Children’s Day and even God’s Day. Where do we receive them? Isn’t it in the family? [Yes.]

Therefore, the family is the place to receive God’s Day, True Parent’s Day, Children’s Day and Day of All Things. In other words, you will become awestruck and immeasurably grateful for your position when you realize the possibility that one insignificant family can be a holy foundation upon which these four great holidays can be united. When you realize this, even if your wife’s eye is strange or impaired it doesn’t matter. Do you understand?

When we center on this law, if we violate this, there will be merciless consequences. If you violate this, who will accuse you? Satan will accuse you and treat you as Satan’s Satan. He will say to you, “You illegitimate one! I have fallen at the completion of the growth stage by the inducement of unsanctified heart, but you have fallen from the position of growing toward the completion level of the completion stage.”

Just watch and see those who fall away and leave at will, see what will become of them in the future. How many generations will be penalized? That depends on what God decides. God can even condemn them for thousands of generations. Do you understand what I say? Maybe their whole lineage will be rooted out. Loathsome, hateful and unimaginable things will unfold in front of our eyes.

How can I save them by creating a different law? Should I do it? If I did so then it will become a great cancer for our descendants. How can I get rid of this cancer? By letting the blood out in our generation, I can resolve it. Presently, God is concerned about these problems. Do you understand? This is not a lie. This is not a threat or intimidation.

If I do not accomplish this task and go to the spirit world, then I would be contrary to this law. Isn’t this right? [Yes.] Therefore, the woman you meet is the person whom you have been waiting and longing for, for six thousand years, and whom God looks over and parents have introduced. Isn’t love reached through God and parents? Do not become thieves. So is our family great or not great? [great]

That is why the path of salvation which Unification Thought is teaching is not individual salvation. If the family is not saved, then nothing can be saved. It is the salvation of couples and children. If we are not able to save our children, then we must wait in the spiritual world. Thus in the spirit world, the educational law is established. Everyone must go to the spirit world in a single line. Do you understand? In the spirit world there is an educational system, and all the things which were not able to be accomplished on the earth are taught and everyone must cross over together. We believe for the sake of family salvation. Do you understand? [Yes.]

I believe for the sake of my wife and a wife believes for the sake of her husband, and the children believe for the sake of their parents. Do you understand? The Unification Church believes for the four position foundation, that is the three-object purpose. Do you understand? [Yes.] Anyone alone cannot receive salvation. That is why even Father has so much interest in Mother. It’s not simply because I like Mother, but from the principle perspective, I want to love her more than she loves me. That’s why I am thinking very much about it. Each spouse has to be like this.

Looking from this perspective, all of you must establish such a valuable family. And in that family, there are three great loves. God’s love is nothing other than the love which combines the three great loves. Isn’t that right? The family which substantialized such love is a heavenly family. Therefore, during the period of bachelor life, one must receive love from God. Afterwards, during the period of husband, he must receive love. And then during the period of father he must receive love. These kinds of love are not separate loves but the love of one God, which a person likes when he is a bachelor, when he is a husband and when he is a father.

A woman also must receive the love of God when she is a maiden, when she is a bride, and then when she is a mother. Isn’t that right? Shouldn’t it be so? Only then can they stand in the representative parental position centering on God’s standard of love. Isn’t that right? Because it is inherited, after I have experienced the love of children, the love of a spouse, and the love of parents centering on God’s love, in the horizontal subject position of parents I can inherit God’s three great loves and I can progress toward the world horizontally. Do you understand? [Yes.]

Therefore, you must consider your wife as “Oh, she is a person whom as a daughter no one else has surpassed in receiving God’s three great loves, whom as a wife no one else is to surpass in receiving love, whom as a mother no one else will surpass in receiving love.” Then how should you conduct the education of your children? It must be an education through which your children can be proud saying “My father and mother are the best in the world. Except God, there are no people who are higher and greater than our parents.” This is the method of education for the Unification families. Do you understand? [Yes.] If this is what God can agree and your descendants can agree to then this will be publicly recognized.

If I look at my children, they say that “Our father is right after God.” You too must teach such thought. To your family I am your grandfather, isn’t that right? So, do you teach your children that “Because I received love from grandfather, I am like your grandfather?” Do you teach these things to your children? Do you or don’t you teach that? Do you teach your children that “True Father became as he is because he received love from God. He receives love from God and he is your grandfather. I received more love from this grandfather than anyone else and I am one with the grandfather. That is why I am the world’s best father. So I am the best in the world when it comes to loving you”? Are you the best in loving your children? You must instill these kind of thoughts into them. This must be continued for centuries and millennia. If this lineage is not polluted and is succeeded for centuries and millennia, then ancestors in the spirit world and the descendants on the earth will receive blessings thousand and ten thousand fold.

Do you understand the way which the family must walk? [Yes.] All blessed families, do you understand? [Yes.] You men, you are thinking about absurd things with your thief eyes. Am I right or not? [Yes.] Eu Chong-young! Do you like your wife? [Yes, I like her] The person behind him, do you like your wife? [Yes.] Those of you who like your spouse because you have to, raise your hand. Those people will in future receive mob-thrashing.

Now, do you approximately understand the way of our family? [Yes.] Inherit the tradition from your forefathers. Properly bequeath that tradition to your descendants. By doing so, if we are to subjugate Satan who opposes this will, we must be liberated from the ordinary path as a family. Do you understand? [Yes]

We must be liberated as a family. Even I haven’t completely liberated myself on the family level. I am in the process of liberation. We must be liberated as a family. One should not go comfortably by oneself. You may be an individual here but you stand in the position to resolve the fate of the whole. In order to grant the condition that you have crossed over as a whole family, I have now educated your wives to enable them to create their own foundation in relationship to God. On the day when this is crossed over, all of you can cross over at once. Everyone can cross over.

Therefore, knowing that it is such a time, you must determine yourselves to be responsible for the problems of Korea, Asia, and the world. When father looks around the world, I feel these things. However vast this world may be, we must have conviction that we shall capture the heaven and earth. That is why we must determine that even if the Unification Church perishes, we must save the world. Do you understand? I must do things for the sake of the country even if I have to let the members go through suffering. Isn’t that so? If the Unification Church was pursuing its happiness and welfare, then it would have perished. If it did, then the church would not have progressed until now. We have this hidden ideology. Isn’t that right? [Yes.] Until the time comes when all thirty million people of this nation from head to the tail, are centering on God’s direction, we can not rest idle and must walk this path. You must understand this. When one releases something, it must be completely coiled in order for it to be released completely. Then through the end, we can find the way out. The path of restoration is like that. Do you understand? [Yes.]

Among you, if you have beaten your wife, raise your hand. I will forgive you so please raise your hand honestly. Oh you! If ever there was an incident to hit your wife, you should have first shed tears over it. At the place where Satan is watching over furtively... Are you going to ever repeat such action again or not? [We will not do it again] In order to restore three great loves, you must experience the love of mother. Next, the love of your wife and then the love of younger sister. Isn’t that right?

Because of the fall of Adam and Eve, we have lost the love of mother, the love of wife, and the love of younger sister. We have lost three great loves. From a woman’s perspective, she has lost the love of father, the love of husband, and the love of older brother. Even in the Satanic world, living without a father is not proper. It is a failure according to the most fundamental principle. If you cannot live more happily than anybody in the Satanic world, you are failures. If you cannot love your wife more than your own sisters, then you are a failure.

Your wife is a holy being who has now appeared in front of you as a representative fruit of the feminine image of three ages. Therefore, you must be grateful to Heavenly Father. In my case it is opposite. I have to raise my wife as my daughter. After raising her as my daughter, I raise her as my wife, and then educating her as the mother and establish the name of mother. Isn’t it opposite? I have raised her. If my age is compared with Mother, then her age is comparable to the age of my daughter, isn’t it? Mother is like a daughter, and it is more difficult to say that she is like a wife or a mother. Think about it. If her age is more substantial, then I can overlook the age and say “Mother.” That’s why I use language of “Umma (mother)” to Mother. I call her so and so “umma.” That is the most difficult problem. Can you understand? A husband when coming back from outside to home and when he looks for his wife, he calls her by saying “so and so umma,” doesn’t he? I call Mother “umma.”

Sometimes when I return from some place, as if I was a little child I report everything to Mother. A long time ago, when I returned, I used to report to Mother all through the night. I reported with the determination to surpass such mind. That is restoration. All must be restored through indemnity.

You must become a man whom a woman cannot be suspicious of even if she tries to. Therefore, whatever you do, you must first discuss with your spouse and then do it. Do you understand? “God’s will is like this, the path which we must walk is like this, shall we do this or not?” In such a fashion you must explain by deciphering the principle. When you ask, “Do you have any objection?” she should say, “No, I don’t have any objection.” The way which men must walk is the way through which they strip off everything which women made mistakes about. Isn’t this so?

If a husband says that “This is the path which you must go and if you go this way then you will collapse,” nine out of ten will collapse. “Thus, shouldn’t I stand ahead of you? Because I have more experience in fighting, I will go this path ahead of you. So wouldn’t you cooperate with me in such and such manner?” Then she can not help but cooperate with him. You must do this kind of task. That is why our family becomes unified. The relationship is that of a most close relationship. You must love her in place of your mother. Think of it as if you have mother, wife and younger sister in your home. When you face any difficulty, if you consider your wife as a mother and discuss with her as “this is so and so,” then she will shed her tears in the place of mother. If she sheds tears, then she will not become more distant from you.

In the world, if people shed tears, they often become more distant, but if we shed tears then we become even closer. After two shed tears together, each feels sorry to the other and cannot even speak nor even greet each other, yet they don’t become distant. Rather they become even closer. If we become a couple in which the spouses can truly become one by holding hand in hand and truly trust each other, this is none other than a most blessed couple, isn’t it? God will see them and will He proclaim them by saying “These two love each other more than me”? We must reach even that kind of degree. Raise your hand if you have lived like this. Raise your hand if you promise that you will live like that from now on. All of you should try. If you are like that, you will bear descendants who are greater than you. One thing that I am really grateful for is that when a spiritualist sees my children, there is an interesting phenomenon. (The tape recorder is briefly stopped and thus not able to receive the content)

If you bear children, then those children are born by inheriting the fortune of the Unification Church and Father. Do you understand? [Yes.] Even if you are terribly stubborn and malignant, your children will not be like you. So, do you like to bear good children? If you want that, then love the spouse which Father has chosen for you as you love Father. Love your husband, your wife as you love Father and Parents. If you do so, then the children who are to be born from you will inherit that fortune and they will be nothing like you.

Now I am only quietly observing. Some people, I have matched with a cripple. How would such a couple live heartistically? I am very interested in that. We are not the people who live for the present. Consider that we are born for history. Because of the mistakes of my ancestors in history, in order to indemnify that in my generation, I became a cripple, but the ancestors as a whole are not bad. The history itself has not gone wrong. Therefore don’t be resentful. Think of the fact that in the heartistic world, that position does not become misery but it becomes a place where one can be connected with blessing.

In such a family, would God come or not? If the relationships of three great loves are fulfilled, then the four position foundation is established. Isn’t this so? Is the four position foundation established? If a four position foundation is established, then God will surely come to that place. Isn’t this place a four position foundation? The love of parents, the love of spouse, the love of children, these are the four position foundation types of love. Would God be dwelling in the place where the four position foundation love exists or not? God dwells there. In that place attending God, we must live for centuries and for a millennium. That place is the foundation for the Kingdom of Heaven.

If this is realized, then we can receive God’s love and we can inherit God’s lineage and thus are able to love everything which God possesses. Do you understand? [Yes.] Such an incredible position is the position of the blessed couple. Do you understand or don’t you understand? [We understand.]

Let’s defend our family. If the Unification Church cannot defend the family … you are not to believe in the Unification Church for the sake of your wife. You believe for the sake of the nation. You believe in order to restore Korea. One must give up one’s own family, wife and children for the sake of world. This love is in accordance with God. Do you understand? [Yes.] Don’t live with the mindset of a haphazard stupid person. If one lives with this kind of seriousness, then nothing in the universe can break this mind. If anyone who tries to break such a mind, that person will be destroyed. If you march like this in the future, then wherever you go, the satanic world will crumble. That is true.

During the process, I have toiled together with Mother. God always worked ahead of everything which I have planned. This is marvelous. If I say one word of judgment here, then it is destroyed over there.

Now a new era has come in front of us. Do you understand? This shining historical era, if you lose this time, then your cherished desire will not be fulfilled. Your desire is not aimed at just tomorrow. It is the establishment of the four position foundation centering on the devotion toward and the bond with True Parents, in order for your descendants to inherit this after millions and billions of years.

Until now, this fallen world has been looking toward the future and tomorrow but from now on, it will be moving backward. Here is the culmination point of history, the solution point of all the victory of heaven and earth, and the core point of all hopes. We are putting this on the line and because anything that is outside of its expansion belongs to the Satanic world, God will judge it.

The position on which you are sitting today, the position which is bonded as the family centering on Father is the position which your ancestors of thousands and tens of thousands of generations had been longing for. All the ages of history have longed for this place and right now everyone in the spirit world is longing for and devoting themselves for it. Today I myself am devoting all my heart centering on this.

This position is a position where the purpose, motivation and content are united. Do you understand? Therefore, the person who lives at that time can become the victor of three ages. You must clearly understand that such an amazing position is the position of the blessed couple. Do you understand? [Yes.]

Father’s prayer

Heavenly Father, I understand that a day of sorrow occurred to your mind which wished that Noah be better than Abel, and again a sorrowful incident approached Abraham’s family whom You have chosen hoping that they be better than Noah. I also understand that You have established the victorious foundation through the journey of battles, longing for better offspring centering on Jacob.

We understand that upon such a foundation, Moses bearing the responsibility of national leadership was to be more absolute than Jacob. That is why he left Egypt and spent eighty years in Midian, in the barren wilderness. We understand that John the Baptist should have had even more devotion and effort than Moses. We feel and behold through our own eyes that the Israelites became the people with thousands of years of sorrow because John the Baptist was not able to fulfill the worldwide mission.

Heavenly Father, thinking that Christianity should have invested more devotion than the Israelites, and that the Unification Church should invest more devotion than Christianity for it is the third Israel set apart to fulfill God’s will, this son standing in this place understands clearly that I have to invest more devotion than anybody in all of history.

You understand very well about the situation of this son who feels deeply ashamed when I think about how inadequate I am, how many imperfections I have in front of the Heavenly Father’s dispensational will which longs for absolute perfection, as time passes by, as I relate to You with a sense of mission.

I have not sought the recognition by others, I have not started with the expectation of recognition by anybody. However, I know very well the fact that You sympathize with me, going ahead of me and clearing my path. Not one person but numerous spiritualists and many people whom I have encountered testify that this person is the most miserable person in the whole world, however I am not the miserable person. You know my mind which wants to perceive that I was an unfilial son who did not yet realize that You are more miserable than I am.

The Unification Church was able to remain until this day not because of anyone’s accomplishment or merit. I understand that it is only because You functioned as an invisible root and became the driving force which eliminated every obstacle, this Unification Church was able to remain at this place today.

I understand well that when the question is raised concerning who is in the important position to be responsible for navigating the fate of the Unification Church, it is not the insignificant church leaders who are here today, but a person who cannot even speak “Heavenly” of the Heavenly Father and wail and speak “Father” and again cannot close his mouth for his mind is so aroused by the piercing heart. I know that You are looking for such a person.

Father, please let this period be a time to reflect back at the most shameful past, to shed the ignorant self which promised the result of insignificant value, and to pledge oneself to Your solemn teaching.

We now understand that I am my own enemy. Where I am victorious over myself, You are there. We must understand that You who drive us to be victorious over ourselves have already been victorious over Yourself. When we think of how great your suffering endurance had to be and how much your grief had flowed into You, especially as You are omnipotent and omniscient, until You stand over all those things, we can only dare to understand and fathom it. Please look down with mercy upon us who are lamenting for we are unable to reach your situation from this place.

Father, here at Cheong-Pyeong at this time, your young children have gathered not to find something. They came looking for a place where they can again be drenched in your deep heart and again experience your heart. Facing difficulties is not a problem. We came here with our earnest desire to find the place where the relationship with you will never be shaken eternally and eternally, and where the bond will never be unbound.

We understand that we must win over this world. We must win over Satan. When we observe this, we realize that the destined course of the Unification Church is a course overcoming misery after misery. Father, you know very well about the heartache which we feel when knowing that the nation is in a difficult position, yet we are unable to stand in front of this place. Because You know about the heartbreak which You feel when you know the difficulty of this world, yet You are unable to stand in front of the world, You easily know our heartbroken situation.

We should be proud to have Heavenly Father who has persevered through so much sufferings in order to prepare the way for us before this time has come. Before being proud of anything of our own, we should be proud of Father. Before we venerate anything of our own, we should venerate Father. Before looking forward to be recognized with all our value, we must feel indignant about Father being unable to be recognized. I know through my own experience that when the children, who can really live for You, perceive Your miserable situation, not knowing how to properly respond to You, feeling empathy toward You and cry out in tears “Why must Heavenly Father walk this miserable path! When will we bring about the day of liberation for You!” then You can be liberated from that miserable situation.

Your children who are gathered here, please don’t let them shed tears for their own children. If their children are miserable, let them realize it is because You are miserable and let them pray embracing You. When You look at us tearfully praying “Please Heavenly Father, do not be in such a situation” Your heart aches a thousand, ten thousand times more. When realizing this, we must comfort You in such a situation and tell the children with a prayerful heart that “Although you stand in a lonely, miserable place now, your descendants will not perish, and your future will not be bleak. This I will prove to you. Don’t feel resentment because we can’t feed and clothe you now.” Let them know that such parents are holy parents.

Because I could not clothe and feed my wife like others, sometimes I would see her groaning in the sick bed. At such times, instead of worrying about the difficult situation and environment, I think of how much misery would Heavenly Father’s heart feel when He sees His children go the heavenly way in such a situation, and even if my wife collapses and I fall down, pray for Heavenly Father’s heart not to be miserable and shed tears, then I would be liberated from such a situation again and again. Father, please let them realize that when they become crazy about loving Heavenly Father, and when they become crazy about caring for Your will, they shall never perish.

Now our bloodline which gushes forth as the blood of an artery from the heart and our bosom must be connected with Heavenly Father. Therefore we must reach the place where our blood can be identical with the blood which pours out from Your arteries and Your bosom. In order to reach that place, I realize that I must die and You must survive. Heavenly Father, I earnestly pray that You would grant me to walk this path gladly.

Because You love this place, Cheong-Pyeong, You have made this place as it is. This is the ground which You have sanctified through much devotion. I pray earnestly that this meeting can plant the tradition which, in this place, the tears of devotion can be entangled. In this place every occurrence can be related with you more closely. Thus all people of all nations can visit this place and long for You through their many tears, through their difficulties and sufferings.

Even if we are in the situation of naked, orphaned, persecuted people, the place where You walk together with us, that place is not a miserable place but a happy place. That place is the place where the Kingdom of Heaven will be resurrected, and that place is where the happy settlement of future will spring forth. Thinking these things, we must go forth again. Straightening our tired body, we must go forth again. Stimulating the spirit and vigor in our lifeless eyes, looking over the far away mountain, we must go forth again. Heavenly Father, I desire earnestly that You will allow us to be Your children who struggle to go first on the thorny path which we must walk through, rather than belatedly following the footsteps which You have left.

We have not yet understood our holy Father’s heartbroken mind to achieve restoration. We have not understood that in Your victimized inner mind, which endured so far with pledging, bleeding heart, there is a grieving and longing mind which pleads to us that “Oh my son, please become a son of subjugation and victory.”

Let us understand clearly that although we have become the children of disappointment and despair living under the pressure of wretchedness, in the midst of this, Heavenly light approaches, and that light becomes the dividing path, the new Kingdom of Heaven is opened here and thus the luminous Heavenly glory begins.

Father, please allow us to pledge from this time on, for the energetic steps of tomorrow. Please let them understand that if they can become the sons who already determine themselves to go like this once they become such a person, to go like this once they receive such a wife, to go like this once they bear such a child, and carry this out in action, and if these sons can go forth in the way of your will, then your day of new prosperity can rest in a safe place.

Please allow us to cross over this hill fruitfully and effectively, which we must cross in any case, and allow us not to become a small-minded man when we are at the crucial juncture of determining our destiny. I earnestly wish and plead that You would allow us to be bold and courageous, and to become the victorious fighters who can introduce Heavenly Father by petitioning to all people.

I ask your favor once again, that now all the things which we undertake from this first day on can be embraced in your glorious bosom and I also hope that you will grant this day to be blessed. At this time when August has almost passed away, please grant a new start for the Unification Church and allow the binding of hopeful Heavenly fortune to be fulfilled.

We must think that by the one who knows and the one who is unknowing, the person who is ignorant and the person who is enlightened, heaven and earth will divide. I again ask your favor to please protect, enlighten, and guide all the children who are gathered here so that they may become a wise people and that they may appear in front of your blessed presence. I pray all these things in the holy name of True Parents. Amen.
