God’s Love, the Basis for the Kingdom of Heaven, Has Been Lost

Also since everything is connected
to the core, then each position, one, two,
three, four, five, six and seven from this
central core are equal. If the grandfather
and his sons and daughters want some-
thing and the grandchild is not against
it, then all three generations will come
to want it. The grandfather and grand-
mother, husband and wife, and sons and
daughters all follow the center. In terms
of love, we say that the parent-child
relationship is one, the conjugal rela-
tionship is one, and the sibling relation-
ship is one. They are one body. What are
these relationships revolving around?
They are revolving around the true love
of God who is the center of love. Based
on true love, the parents and children,
husband and wife and brothers and sis-
ters all become one. In this way the val-
ue of everything becomes equal. (299-114,
1999.2.7)

We must surpass this standard. Our
Blessed Families must enlarge them-
selves with good points from each other,
and live their lives serving and caring
for their parents. (26-299, 1969.11.10)

Humankind Wanders In Search of the Truth

Rev. Sun Myung Moon
December 21, 1958

Matthew 7:1-12

When humans were cast out of ancient Eden, they grieved centered on themselves, not knowing God’s heart. Thus, forgetting our own body’s sorrow and pain, we must first liberate God from sorrow and pain. Unless we do this, we cannot dissolve the grievous historical resentment and go over it. Therefore, you must now feel that each of us is a crystallization of God’s tears of 6,000 years. We are not only the crystallization of God’s tears, we are also the crystallization of God’s pain. Only from such a position will our individual value be restored to life again.

For that reason, we who are placed in the last days, when we must dissolve the sorrow and pain caused by the fall, must now represent God’s heart. We must know how to grieve and receive pain in place of God, who has grieved and received pain for 6,000 years. Since humans have no comprehension of this, you must know that Heaven has unfolded the dispensation, shedding tears for humanity, having laid down the term “Heaven’s judgment.”

How is one to avoid judgment? We are not to cry holding onto our bodies or over our pain. We must know the pain of God, who bears greater pain than ours to save us. We must know that God’s sorrows and difficulties are greater than ours. We must deny everything about ourselves and dissolve all the pain that has penetrated deeply into the heart of God, who has been guiding history from behind the scenes. Today’s humanity is fated to seek the one who can carry out such a mission.

Viewed from this standpoint, in order for fallen humans to break out of themselves and go on, what must they do? What can move my mind, what can move my body and the material that I have? That is the Shim Jung of perfect love.

You must become people who can feel that your spirit embraces your mind and loves it, that your mind embraces your body and loves it, and that your body embraces all of creation and loves it. Such a person is the very destination and terminus we are seeking.

However, no one has accomplished this. Although God is holding onto our spirits, our minds and our bodies and is loving them, no one could feel that. You must know this.

If God embraces my spirit and loves it, my spirit loves my mind, my mind loves my body, and my body loves all of creation, the Shim Jung will then become united. In such a world, the Shim Jung that loves all creation will be connected to the body; the Shim Jung that loves the body will be connected to the mind; the Shim Jung that loves the mind will be connected to the spirit; and the Shim Jung that loves the spirit will be connected to God. This is the terminus humanity seeks.

There is no one who takes hold of you and asks, “Do you know with what mission you are entrusted?” Yet, though you are not aware of it, there is a being who stands in your way and asks, “Who are you? Where are you going? What will you do?” You do not realize this.

What did humanity lose by falling? It lost love. The cause of human lamentation is the loss of God’s love. Therefore, human history has come through a historical course of lamentation with God’s love lost. Do you understand that?

God’s love is the foothold of the eternal ideology of the heavenly kingdom, for the building of the substantial heavenly kingdom on earth. However, humankind lost God’s love, the ideological foundation of the eternal world because of the fall. Because humanity lost this love of God, God had to leave. That is why God’s love, which can build the heavenly kingdom on earth, has gradually been broken down.
