Love became the pillar that let this universe come into being. You should know that in the same way this love became the pillar that supports hell. How difficult it is to put right something that became like this! Even if you wash its cells with really powerful bleach, because love makes up its root, it becomes tainted again. (133-319, 1985.1.1) Only the strength of true love can make total unity. Speaking words of true love would make God say, “Mmm…” and even Satan in his hell would say, “Mmm…” and the entire world would say, “Mmm…” What makes everything become one is the power of true love. Is there anyone who can tell me, “You’re wrong about that?” (133-311, 1985.1.1)

What is the task that the returning Lord should carry out? He must win over Satan and then win over all the people in the spirit world. There are many spiritual masters today who brag about who they are in heaven and earth. However, in expectation of the time to come, they should not merely be making spiritual efforts, no matter how sincere, without knowing how to resolve the world that came about as a result of the Fall. We should be victorious first over the satanic world, which is a visible world rather that an invisible world, and then over the spirit world. Without fighting in the visible world and defeating Satan, no road will emerge by which we can make progress in the spirit world. Without this, we would surely face obstacles; then what would happen when we entered the spirit world? We would not be able to enter, and even if we could, we would not be able to win the battle.

Sin and Restoration Through Indemnity
Chapter 1
Fundamentals of Indemnification and the Principle of Restoration
Section 5. Our Attitude toward Fulfilling Our Portion of Responsibility
5.2. Our attitude toward fulfilling our portion of responsibility
Summary:
Because Adam and Eve failed to fulfill their original responsibility, all of humanity remains trapped under Satan’s control regardless of their social status or achievements. To separate from Satan and gain spiritual freedom, people must pay indemnity ⚖️—a necessary path of sacrifice—because God cannot step in to fulfill the human portion of responsibility. True Father endured imprisonment and lifelong trials to reveal these spiritual principles, showing that believers must actively go to the front lines of the world to restore Cain 🤝 (the satanic world) through selfless love, thereby completing their five percent portion of responsibility ⏳ and cutting off Satan’s hold.
Do you think that you have fulfilled your portion of responsibility? Adam and Eve passed away without accomplishing this. As a result, none of you are in the position of having fulfilled it. No matter how wonderful you are, even if you are a president, or a nationally renowned scholar, you cannot rise to the position of having fulfilled your portion of responsibility. Satan has a firm grasp on you in the realm wherein your responsibility has not been fulfilled. To separate from Satan indemnity must be paid. Without paying indemnity, without becoming an offering, he will not release you. Until indemnity is paid he will never let go. (134-273, 1985.7.20)
You do not know the way to the Kingdom of Heaven. You do not know the way of indemnity, do you? As human beings could not fulfill their portion of responsibility they have remained trapped by it. Because this could not be resolved, Satan invaded. Satan has invaded everything, from the individual to the family, society, nation, world and even the spirit world. (137-104, 1985.12.24)
We must fulfill our five percent portion of responsibility. I myself will suffer hardships throughout my life due to my portion of responsibility and the law of indemnity. Because I understood this, Satan fears the Unification Church the most. These are the weapons to make Satan surrender. Thus, we must go to Satan’s front line. We must go to the satanic world, oppose Satan’s activities, build a foundation and save Cain. We must help Cain to separate from Satan. Only when we save Cain is Satan liberated. If we cannot restore Cain, we cannot be rid of Satan. (134-271, 1985.7.20)
Why do we need the law of indemnity? We need it to separate from Satan. Unless you fulfill your portion of responsibility you cannot separate from Satan. I will say it again. Without this being completely fulfilled you will not be able to separate from Satan. Thus, all of you must go the way of indemnity. If I had not come to know about our portion of responsibility and the law of indemnity the Unification Church today would not be standing.
From the viewpoint of God’s will God is not able to help us. The Unification Church is unique because we have learned about the law of indemnity based on our portion of responsibility. The reason I have been suffering throughout my life is because of the way of indemnity. Why should I do this all my life? Why have I always had to spend time in prison and carry on working this way? It is because of the law of indemnity. (134-271, 1985.7.20)
