The Ideal World Of Creation Through Adam And Eve

God created one male and one female. After they became perfect, God wanted them to live a heavenly married life as one heavenly couple, husband and wife. 

God planned to make Adam and Eve the very first husband and wife and then to build the heavenly kingdom through them. If this had happened, then the blessings "be fruitful and multiply" would have been realized at that time. God had given Adam and Eve the ability to multiply His children. Then the children of Adam and Eve would have been sinless, perfect human beings. 

Then what else would Adam and Eve have done? Sin never would have been passed on to humankind. Through their children, Adam and Eve the God- centered True Father and Mother of all humankind. 

If Adam and Eve had reached perfection without falling, they would have become perfect not only individually but also on a universal and historical level. And they would have been able to start a new family centering on God's love. From this family, a society, tribe, nation and world -- one big family -- would have been realized in which God could have dwelt. 

The center of this one big family society would have been God and Adam. In that world, the lifestyle or course of Adam's family would have remained as an historical tradition. Their lifestyle, customs, practices and background would have become the historical tradition. 

It can only become a tradition if it is linked to God's love. God's love is the origin of life and the spring of all ideals; therefore, we would not have been able to leave its bosom, and would want to return even if we ever left. 

In this fallen world, we see many people leave their parents or brothers. They always feel lonely and miss their family. Similarly, once we are united with God, who is the subject of life and ideals, we can never leave His bosom. If we leave we feel lonely and bereft of happiness; therefore, there is no option other than becoming united in the realm of God's love. 

In that position, these are the things man can be proud of: one, God is my Father; two, we are sons and daughters who can receive God's love; and three, I am the inheritor of the universe created by God. 

Today, the people of this world are proud of just marrying the daughter of a rich man. But if God is my Father and if I can receive all His love, could there be anything of which to be prouder? 

If Adam and Eve had realized a God-centered ideal family, God's will would have been realized. Adam's family would have become a family where a unified base of love could have been formed with God as Father on the top and all humankind below as His family. That family would have become the foundation on which to bring everything into unity through love, in order to perfect the ideals of Adam and Eve created by God. 

Through the husband and wife's love and children's love formed on that foundation, a unified cultural realm would have been realized on this earth centering on Adam's family. There would not have been numerous tribes forming their own cultures and civilizations, as exists today. It would have been a world with a single culture, single thought and single civilization, centering on Adam. When this is realized, then all cultures, history, customs, languages and traditions will be unified. 

Also, we will realize an ideal family, clan, tribe and nation in the realm of God's love, and by enlarging that even more, we will form one ideal world realizing the ideal of Adam. As the root trunk and leaves of a tree are all connected as one life, we should serve God as our Father above us, and we should think of humankind as our brothers and sisters below us, making one "life-body." God's will is to realize an eternal ideal world centering on God. The people living in that world do not need any salvation or Messiah. They are God's sons and daughters of goodness. 

If Adam and Eve had realized the first God-centered family, the God- centered tribe, nation and world would also have been realized centering on that family. In that place, only God would be the ruler. Then from the very beginning, a perfect rule would have been accomplished for eternity. 

If this had been accomplished in the Garden of Eden, then we would not have many different nations and languages we see today. We would have been included in Adam's tribe, following one tradition centering on Adam. The language which Adam used would have been the language of the world. And the whole world would have indeed become one nation under God. As God planned, all humankind would have been born in the heavenly kingdom on earth. 

We were to enjoy the heavenly life here on this earth and, after our physical life, we were to go to the spirit world to live in heaven eternally. This was the original blueprint of God. In this world, there would have been no Satan, no evil and no hell.
