Most people think that anyone can catch a fish just by throwing a fish hook into the water. However, that is not the truth! Different fish are active in different water temperatures. The water temperature differs between the bigger and smaller fish. In summertime, the water temperature is higher close to the surface. That is why the smaller fish live near the water’s surface. The fish move naturally, according to the temperature of the sea water. The fish dislike moving in all directions. They always try to move sideways. You must know such facts in order to fish. You must have knowledge of such things as where the fish gather and where to go fishing for salmon. You must become professionals. Therefore, studying is necessary. You cannot fish unless you become a professional in fishing.
When I fish, I know exactly the right temperature. I already know what kinds of fish are found in certain temperatures. When you drop the fishing line a couple of times, the fish already touch the bait. So if I reel up the fish hook fast, the fish come up, and when the fish hook is reeled up slowly, it tends to sink down. While slowly reeling up the fish hook, you should know how fast the water is flowing on the surface. By the water temperature that we have today, I know what level the king salmon will come to. Usually, the salmon remain on the ocean floor. Why? They can find lots of food there. Crabs and small sea creatures live on the sea bottom, so the salmon like to gather there.
No matter how many times you have caught fish in Alaska, you must learn again whenever you go fishing at a new place. You do not know how interesting this can be. Also, when people come and go, they can share their knowledge about fishing. The New Zealanders must learn when they come to Kodiak. Although they may be excellent fishermen in New Zealand, it does not work the same way in Kodiak. Because they must learn again when they come to Kodiak, they can mingle and create harmony. There are various ways of fishing, different ethnic groups, and different environments. Everywhere you go to fish, you will find many different environments. (252-206, 1993.12.30)

What should our lives be focused on? God’s love, God’s life and God’s lineage – these three roots are the standard. So, what should you be grateful for? Do not offer thanks for living a comfort- able life. You must feel grateful for bearing a cross. If the remains of a defeat- ed army are bleeding and rotting with a bad smell, who will make the funeral arrangements? Who will train them and turn them into a regular army? Also, if there is nothing to eat, what should be done? Should they just be killed off? No. You thought that by winning every- thing would become nice and smooth, but actually you will have to bear a bigger cross. Your time will come after you have resolved all that, after you have rebuilt it. You can live happily only after you have established a new family, a new nation and a new world.

Selections from the Speeches of Rev. Sun Myung Moon
Book 8
Sin and Restoration Through Indemnity
Chapter 2
The Internal Meaning of Sin and the Fall
Section 5. Grief Caused Over the Fall and God’s Heart in the Process of Restoration
5.2. Conditions for Satan’s accusations
Summary:
Satan is an “adulterer” who violated Eve, causing God profound grief and anguish during the Fall 💔. While God can forgive human beings trapped under Satan’s influence, He cannot forgive Satan himself—meaning the final judgment is directed at Satan rather than humanity ⚖️. Overcoming this history requires believers to develop a standard of love so deep that they can bless even their ultimate enemy 🕊️, mirroring the immense sorrow and endurance God has maintained throughout history.
Who is Satan? To God he is the adulterer. Forgiving the adulterer would go against the heavenly principle, so God cannot forgive him. Therefore, even though God can forgive the people of the satanic world a hundred or a thousand times, He absolutely cannot forgive Satan. That is why the great judgment will come. Who will be judged in the great judgment? It is not human beings, but Satan, who dwells like a master in their souls, who will be judged. (22-282, 1969.5.4)
Satan is the enemy who violated love. He is a wretched thief who entered the house while the parents were asleep, murdered the father and raped the mother. Who is Satan? He is the enemy of love who raped God’s beloved Eve, God’s partner in substantial form.
We must have a heart that is able to give the person we love most to such an adulterer and still bless him. You cannot love the enemy merely by forgiving him. Will Satan thank you just for forgiving him? We must have such a heart that we are able to bless our enemy even after giving him our only beloved. This is the final obstacle we must surmount. Yet, people say that they will go to heaven due to their faith alone, don’t they? (34-278, 1970.9.13)
Christians believe that Adam and Eve fell by eating the fruit, after the serpent incited them with whispered words. They have no idea of the workings of fundamental principles. You cannot imagine how sad, miserable and frustrated God is because of this. He is sadder, more frustrated and more miserable than anyone in history. The moment Adam and Eve ate the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil God’s heart nearly burst with distress. And yet, God could not help loving them. You must understand this. (21-141, 1968.11.17)
When Adam and Eve were about to eat the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, do you think God said, “It is just what I expected. Go ahead!”? Certainly not! His heart withered and all senses focused on that place. God was trembling and bleeding. He felt like crying out “You must not eat the fruit!” Because of such indescribable sorrow and frustration He was unable to think of anything else. That must have been God’s situation. Do you think God simply watched Adam and Eve eat the fruit of good and evil? If He had had a sword He would have wanted to cut out that history, cut out the whole world, but His position did not allow Him to do that. All He could do was be overwhelmed with grief. (21-141, 1968.11.17)
