By the will of God, Adam and Eve
should have become perfect, received
the Blessing, and, upon the basis of their
family, established God’s nation. They
should have achieved perfection based
on true love. If Adam and Eve had estab-
lished their horizontal object partner-
ship under God, the fulfillment of the
purpose of creation would have been
laid and that world would have extended
to the cosmos. A world based on the tra-
dition of oneness achieved through the
union of Adam and Eve as husband and
wife would then have been established.
However, Adam and Eve disobeyed
God’s will and fell. (Blessed Family – 332)

The family is a training ground of
love. The extension of this family is the
world. The world is made up of smaller
worlds: there is a grandfathers’ world, a
grandmothers’ world, a world of fathers
and mothers, there are husbands’ and
wives’ worlds and sons’ and daughters’
worlds. When these combine we have the
whole world. Thus if you love the people
of the whole world as you love your fam-
ily and as you love God through the fam-
ily, this will make a straight road to the
Kingdom of Heaven. Thus the first com-
mandment is, “You shall love the Lord
your God with all your heart, and with
all your soul, and with all your mind.”
And the second commandment is, “You
shall love your neighbor as yourself.” If
you love God and love humanity, every-
thing will be accomplished. If you can-
not do it, your spiritual training will
have been in vain. No matter how great a
religion’s spiritual discipline may be, if it
does not know how to love God, human-
kind and the whole universe it will fail
the test.

The Incarnation of Jesus, A Pioneer

Matthew 8: 18-22

18 When Jesus saw the crowd,[a] he went across Lake Galilee. 19 A teacher of the Law of Moses came up to him and said, “Teacher, I’ll go anywhere with you!”

20 Jesus replied, “Foxes have dens, and birds have nests. But the Son of Man doesn’t have a place to call his own.”

21 Another disciple said to Jesus, “Lord, let me wait till I bury my father.”

22 Jesus answered, “Come with me, and let the dead bury their dead.”[b]

Prayer

Father, although we are unfaithful, since we have come seeking You, please look down upon us with compassion. We have come forward after hearing the Father’s call. Please allow our minds and bodies to be the possessions of the Father.

Please allow us to become eternally connected to You in this place. Please allow our hearts to be in resonance with Your heart. Allow our bodies to be in touch with Your sacred form. On that foundation, please allow us to build an eternal relationship and connection with You, so that we move when You move, acting in accordance with Your Will.

We know that it is not a coincidence that You have gathered us here today. You have gathered us to sever our ties with the powers of death and raise us as the offerings who have triumphed over Satan. Thus, we fervently desire for You to take charge of us as You desire. Allow us to stand as the sacrifices who can bring joy to You.

Now, please lead us not to set any self-centered condition. Guide our bodies not to possess any element that can bring harm to You. Please let us restore our original selves, the minds and hearts of which are connected only to You, whom You can govern as You Will.

Father, we know that we must become unified in harmony through Your inseparable heart of love. Please make our bodies into the temples where You personally can dwell and make our minds into the holy of holies where You can personally live. Father, we earnestly wish that You mold our minds and bodies into the foundation upon which You can personally dwell and rest in peace.

Please allow us to open the doors to our hearts now. Please remove all sinful elements. Please eliminate all elements that are not appropriate to the Will of the Father. By doing so, please allow us to become people over whom only You can rule. Allow us to become Your beings of life.

Although there may have been many faults in our lives during the past week, since we have prostrated ourselves before the Father’s knees, please govern us. Please love us once again, even amid the ordeals of re-creation. Father of love, we sincerely wish that even just for this hour You will let us become sons and daughters who can be embraced inside Your bosom as burnt offerings.

This is a sacred day. Please bless all people. Bless the thirty million people and the countless religious groups. Please directly unveil the Father’s hands of grace upon the many sons and daughters who yearn and long for Your heart and Your heavenly Will. Father, we sincerely desire to feel the worldwide providence that the Father is working through our minds and bodies.

Please grant the same grace upon the lonely members who are scattered all across the countryside, who are praying for the Will of the Father with deep concern. Please personally protect them. It is my fervent request that You will guide them to remain until the end, even amid tribulation and persecution. Please govern us from the beginning to the end. We pray in the name of the Lord. Amen.
