If Adam and Eve had been able to fathom God’s inner heart, they could not have possibly fallen. God loved His children as a Parent, but they did not understand the depth of His parental heart. Of course Adam and Eve fell while they were still young, but their young age itself was not the cause of the Fall. Rather, they fell because they were lacking in heart. Had they been able to feel, “He is living for me. He can never, ever be separated from me. He is involved in everything related to me,” they would not have committed the Fall. Ultimately Adam and Eve fell because they could not reach unity in heart with God. This dreadful problem occurred because their desires deviated from God’s desires and the direction of their thinking was different from the direction of God’s thinking. (65-173, 1972.11.19

As true love is most precious, violating it is a universal crime. Immorality, juvenile promiscuity, family breakdown, incest, homosexuality, indescribable sex crimes, and so on are the reality of today. These cause God grief. The ideal of creation lies in the fulfillment of the family ideal which is based on sublime and eternal love, but why did it result in today’s miserable way? We can say that in the Last Days the result of the Fall of the first ancestors is bearing fruit in displays of decadence, just like the seeds that were sown. (135-12, 1985.8.20

Sin and Restoration Through Indemnity
Chapter 3
The Formula for Indemnification and Restoration
Section 1. The Works of Rebecca, Tamar and Mary from the Viewpoint of the Restoration of Motherhood
1.1. The Fall of Eve, and Rebecca’s and Tamar’s deceptions
Summary:
Spiritual restoration requires systematically reversing the original actions of the Fall 🔄. Because evil originated in the mother’s womb, biblical figures like Rebecca and Tamar acted through secret, risky, and unconventional means to recover God’s blessing and restore the birthright of the eldest son 🤱. By using faith and determination to overcome the mistakes of Adam, Eve, and Cain, these mothers established the necessary spiritual conditions to purify the human lineage and reclaim humanity’s original position before God 🕊️.
The Fall began from the womb of the mother. Therefore, restoration must take place in the mother’s womb. That became the origin and the starting point of evil, so we must return to that original point in restoration as well. Thus, God set up two brothers through whom to conduct the dispensation to restore the right of the eldest son. In other words, Cain, the firstborn, had to come down to the position of Abel, and Abel had to rise up to the position of Cain, who is the eldest son. However, Cain ultimately killed Abel. This act was a repetition of the act of the Fall at the time of Adam and Eve. Adam, represented by Abel, was again dominated by the archangel, and thus Adam’s position was not restored. (55-109, 1972.4.1)
When Eve fell, whom did she deceive? She deceived God. Without God knowing, without consulting God, she fell when she denied God on her own. Adam was her husband as well as the son of God. Since Eve fell by denying the father and son, Adam was lost. In order to indemnify and restore what had occurred, God raised up Rebecca. Rebecca had to take God’s blessing from the father, Isaac, who represented God, and their son, Esau, who stood in place of Adam, without their knowledge. To reverse what had already occurred, Rebecca came to offer the condition, through Jacob, of restoring the birthright of the eldest son. This was merely a conditional offering. Rebecca and Jacob achieved this conditionally, not yet fulfilling substantial restoration. (114-17, 1981.5.14)
Since an archangel had tempted Eve, in the process of restoration the Eve figure has to tempt the archangelic figure to fulfill God’s purpose. Restoration through indemnity has to be carried out in this way. That is why Tamar had a relationship with her father-in-law. He promised that he would give her a kid goat as payment for having a sexual relationship with him. However, Tamar asked for and received his seal, string and cane, three things that would clearly mark his identity. She kept these things and held on to them for this purpose: “To prove who the father of the child I will bear is, I will keep these even if I die.” (55-305, 1972.5.9)
