Earthly Life and Spirit World (Part 2) - 043 Chapter 1. The Kingdom Of God Section 2. Preparation For Going To The Kingdom Of God
4) The Essence Of The Kingdom Of God
What kind of world is the Kingdom of God? Because the Kingdom of God is the original world, the individual, family, and tribe cannot go there because of Satan's accusations.
Therefore, members of the Unification Church have to unite their family, relatives, and tribe into one, centering on God.
In other words, three generations should become one. In Adam's family, Adam was the first generation, Cain and Abel were the second generation, and the children of Cain and Abel were the third generation.
These three generations were supposed to unite. Centering on God, God was the first generation, Adam and Eve were the second generation, and Cain and Abel were the third generation. (21-54)
Because the Kingdom of God is the world where people live for the sake of others, it will never perish only if it keeps the principle of living unselfishly. In other words, if people only wish to be treated well, the Kingdom of God would perish. Don't you agree?
The Kingdom of God is the world filled with love. The essence of love is to live for the sake of others. Thus it is different from the love of the secular world. Therefore, religion teaches to live for the sake of others, that is, to be obedient, to serve, and to sacrifice.
The secular world has no such teachings. These elements are somehow practiced by groups like beggars, who know nothing. However, that was God's secret strategy to have Satan's side receive good fortune, even though they were not aware of the higher purpose heavenly law. (46-42)
