Since receiving God’s calling as a boy
of sixteen, I have communicated freely
with Jesus as well as the saints and sages
in paradise, and have single-mindedly
devoted all my heart and energy, while
overcoming all manner of tribulation,
into accomplishing His will, which is to
build His kingdom of freedom, peace,
and liberation on earth and in heaven.
His original relationship with human-
kind is an eternal parent-child relation-
ship. The Fall refers to the severance of
that relationship and restoration to its
recovery.
I have established many different
peace movements as well as internation-
al organizations as a means of achiev-
ing the vision of ‘One World Under One
God’ in order to accomplish His will.
The International Blessing Ceremony
that you have witnessed is God’s strat-
egy to fundamentally resolve the racial,
religious, and national conflicts which
have resulted from the Fall. Five colors
of skin coming together in harmony as
true brothers and sisters and true hus-
bands and wives is the actualization of
the holy ideal of establishing ‘One World
Under One God.’

By accomplishing 3.6 million couples,
we will cross the final peak of the world,
and in so doing, we must establish more
national messiahs than there are mem-
ber countries in the United Nations.
Our success in blessing 3.6 million cou-
ples will lay the foundation upon which
each national messiah can influence the
cabinet ministers in their respective
nations, focusing on their ambassadors
to the United Nations. What the United
Nations needs right now is the institution
of True Parents, and the establishment of
a United Nations for women and a Unit-
ed Nations for the youth. Once Moth-
er and Father, Cain and Abel, women,
students and the youth have joined the
United Nations, then the whole world
will become united and peaceful. (282-36,

God and Humanity Should Live Together
Rev. Sun Myung Moon
January 11, 1959
Although the Word must succumb to the incarnation or substance, and the substance should succumb to God, humans killed the incarnation, Jesus. Jesus tried to remove all the historical conditions for resentment over the 4,000 years by uniting with God. What was the historical condition for resentment? It was the betrayal of God’s Word over the 4,000 years. This grudge would have been resolved by the Israelites’ trusting and uniting with Jesus. Yet they killed the substance, deplorably using the Word of 4,000 years as their justification. This is the sin of the Israelites.
Therefore, the Israelite nation had to be trampled upon and receive contempt from the people of the world, wandering the world and becoming the servants of servants. The nation that was supposed to build the country of utmost glory wandered about on a path of pain and of the cross, longing for the glorious country. Why? It is because of the sin of having murdered Jesus. Today’s Christians are ignorant of this.
Hitherto, we have had semblances of God’s Word, but never the true Word of God. The New Testament is the Word of promise, like the Old Testament. It was left by Jesus, who was supposed to establish the Word of substance on the earth, representing God. Thus, people have been struggling, trying to find the substance from the New Testament Word. Even if one reads the Bible, however, he does not understand what is the center of the Word. Jesus departed the world without sharing all of his words, saying, “I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now.” (John 16:12) Where is the word of daily life by which a human being can live as the perfected substance with a complete foundation on the earth? Nowhere, it is not in the Bible. It does not exist. We should clearly know that Jesus has to come again, because he did not fully speak this Word. If you cannot believe it, pray about it. Prayer will teach you.
What are the last days? It is the time to meet the substance of the Word, the master of the Word. To meet the substance of the Word, however, one must achieve unity with the Word, possessing the Word which God tried to reveal to people for 6,000 years to save them. Only then can one make a relationship with the coming Lord.
Jesus came to convey the complete Word, yet he could not. He promised to reveal the complete Word through the Holy Spirit. For this reason, we can know the Word which Jesus tried to reveal in the last days through the Holy Spirit, who has worked for 2,000 years. We can also know the one who will appear as the substance through this Word. At that time, we should recognize him, serve him as the bridegroom, and make a relationship with him as his bride.
Since Jesus, who came as the substance, could not give the Word to complete humanity as the substantial temple, only when we come forward as beings of value representing the Word and as second substantial temples can God dwell in our bodies. The heavenly kingdom on earth is the place where such people live.
Has anyone wept over the Bible? Since Jesus, the perfect substance of the Old Testament, was murdered, the Bible does not contain all the words Jesus would have spoken as a perfected substance. Even though Jesus was sent to replace the invisible God, who relates to humanity only through the Word, with substance, he died and thus could only leave the Word in a form similar to the Old Testament. This is the New Testament. Now we should believe the substance of Jesus, rather than his word. The substance! Now is the age of substantial faith.
