#196-Roll Back Property Taxes: they are not an Entitlement for the Government
Cheon Seong Gyeong 1294
Do you think God would look down on you when you are making love, or not? Would God, who is omnipotent and omnipresent, close His eyes during the night when the five billion people in the world are making love, or not? How would He feel as He looks down on you? How many good wives and good husbands are there? Think about it. All sorts of things can be seen during the night. If a husband or wife does not want to make love to his or her spouse, but is forced into doing it, that is not how a person should live. What kind of love is that? Is that the way to live?
Imagine the whole world becoming like the Garden of Eden, according to the ideal of creation desired by God: filled with the fragrance of flowers, butterflies and bees flying around, heaven and earth living together in harmony, and God falling asleep, drunk on the world itself. How wonderful that would be! Have you ever thought about that? You should all try to live like that. (222-252, 1991.11.3)

Everyone, you must change completely after you go through the ceremony of converting the lineage. Would this be possible if True Parents were not here? Think about the path of hardships previous generations had to persevere through ever since the time of the creation of the world. Having True Parents here right now is something for which you should all be truly grateful. It is even more amazing that you have received the Blessing from them in person. Through the Blessing, the tradition of the lineage, that is, the tradition embedded with true love, life and lineage can be established. You must always keep this in mind. (216-36, 1991.3.3)

Section 2. Judgment and Approval (Certification)
2.2. Prepare a passport to Heaven
Jesus inherited the heavenly kingdom, but not the world. Then who inherited the world? Cain. Therefore, the world is Cain’s domain. For this reason, once Abel inherits the heavenly kingdom, he should receive a certificate issued and guaranteed by Cain who belongs to the world. To enter heaven, you need to obtain a certificate from Satan. Fallen people are caught between these two rules governing heaven and earth. As they have not been resolved, history has been prolonged and repeated through the past six thousand years. Nevertheless, we have now come to understand this. In the Bible it is written, “You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” As we now know the answer, we must love even if we have to clench our teeth. To what level must we love? We must love even Cain who is our enemy. (34-277, 1970.9.13)
Since the Fall took place, not in God’s presence, but with Satan as subject, we must subjugate Satan in order to free ourselves from its realm. We must be able to say and claim before Satan, “Satan, you wretch! I am where I am now because of you. I will subjugate you and return to God!” If you do not obtain the certification that you subjugated Satan, you cannot receive God’s love.
Jesus, too, was victorious in overcoming the three great temptations. We cannot go to heaven without obtaining Satan’s signature that we were historically victorious. No matter what, we must obtain Satan’s signature. When Jesus overcame Satan’s three great temptations, Satan acknowledged tearfully, “You are eternally different from me.” (24-336, 1969.9.14)
To subjugate Cain, we must love him all the way to the end. Without being such people, we cannot save Cain. To go to heaven, we must obtain Satan’s certificate. What is Satan’s certificate? In order for a criminal to be released, he must first go through a prosecutor, then an attorney, and finally a judge. From this perspective, Satan is like the prosecutor, God the judge, and Jesus is the attorney. If Satan ensnares a person saying, “You did this and this, did you not?” and says to God, “This person should be dealt with in this way,” God’s hands are tied. But Jesus, in the position of an attorney would say, “Heavenly Father, this person’s ancestors did such and such things and he is from a good lineage. Since he is accused on these counts, he should be given an indemnity condition related to his crimes so he can be freed from accusation.” This is what has been happening.
Hence, if you want to go to heaven, you must get Satan’s certificate. Without getting a certificate that we loved Satan, we can never go to heaven. That is what the Unification Church is doing. Normally we treat those who oppose us as enemies. Instead, we should love them, even though it is stifling. We must love our enemies and pray for them to have good fortune. We have no choice. Unless Cain and Abel become one, there will be no restoration, and you cannot return to your Parent. (48-316, 1971.9.26)
