We will fail if people say, “In the Unification Church, the words are good but the people are bad.” Did I give you only words? No, I did not just speak. I have done all the things that I am teaching you now. Therefore, there should be no doubt about them. I am teaching by creating a system of thought that is free of inconsistency and contradiction in both its intellectual and the practical aspects. No one can say anything about that. Both Satan and God approve of it. (24-108, 1969.7.13)

So, who are the 36 Couples? In each era of history, not a single family has been able to fulfill the Will, or been able to form a family according to God’s will, and so the conditions necessary to indemnify this have been passed on from generation to generation. The 36 Couples, by offering these conditions of indemnity, have been called to act as shields for families on earth in this era. In other words, they are the representative couples that can fulfill the conditions of indemnity that have been handed down throughout history
Family Pledge
Rev. Sun Myung Moon
We will be doing a study of the Family Pledge that has been prepared as part of the Blessing Preparation Course for the upcoming UnionStation.love matching website.
The Big Idea:
The Family Pledge explains the role of the family in building the Kingdom of Heaven on earth. The Family Pledge is intended for Blessed families, who are fulfilling God’s original ideal of creation, centered on true love. The original world and original homeland is a world of brotherhood and sisterhood. It is where we help our parents, siblings and relatives to enter this world.
By fulfilling the Family Pledge, we can become ideal families
Questions:
1. What is God’s original ideal of creation?
2. How do God and human beings become one?
3. Where is the original homeland?
Lesson
Core concept 1: The primary premise of the Family Pledge is “by centering on true love”
Reading:
Pledge Number One:
Our family, the owner of Cheon Il Guk, pledges to seek our original homeland and build the Kingdom of God on earth and in heaven, the original ideal of creation, by centering on true love.
1.1. The owner of Cheon Il Guk
1.1.1. The meaning of Cheon Il Guk
In Cheon Il Guk, sovereignty, a nation, and people are needed. The Coronation Ceremony for the Kingship of God last year was the restoration of the sovereignty. Next, the rallies for the settlement of God’s Fatherland (Homeland) constituted the restoration of the land; and next you are to register as the people of Cheon Il Guk. Do you understand? That is why you must have the Cheon Il Guk identification card in order to become a citizen of Cheon Il Guk. (364-275, 2002.1.3) p. 2387
1.2. Centering on true love 1.2.1. The primary premise of the Family Pledge is “by centering on true love”
From the point of view of God’s providence, we can see that the age of the providence of restoration is over. When the age of the providence of restoration is over, we enter the world of the original ideal of creation. The end of the age of the providence of restoration means that the fallen world under Satan’s power has come to an end, and the age of God’s direct dominion on earth and in heaven is beginning. The Unification Church has proclaimed the Family Pledge because of the coming of such a time. The Family Pledge is not for ordinary people.
The Family Pledge is not meant for just anyone to say. All eight pledges have the phrase, “Our family…centering on true love.” What does this mean? The words true love are spoken on a foundation that has no relationship with the satanic world. (263-194, 1994.10.4) p. 2390
To overcome and go beyond the world that is connected to false life and false lineage based on the false love that resulted from the Fall, we must have a place of true love, true life, and true lineage. Unless we do this, we cannot overcome it. You must know this clearly.
The reason true love is the prerequisite condition of the Family Pledge is to tell you what existed in the original world, when there had been no Fall in the Garden of Eden. If the ideal of oneness had been accomplished with true love, true life, and true lineage together with God, there could not have been any false love, false life, or false lineage. Though we live on earth, that life itself becomes God’s Kingdom on earth and in heaven, and it becomes the beginning of the eternal world. However, this was all lost due to the Fall. (263-194, 1994.10.4) p 2390-2391
