Remember Your Portion of Responsibility 24 Hours a Day

When you eat, when you hold a spoon, when you wash the dishes, while you go to the toilet, while you walk…

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1170

Because human beings inherited the blood of the archangel, Jesus was conceived through a person who stood in the position of the archangel. What does it mean to say conceived through the Holy Spirit? Such inadequate explanations should not hold sway. The principle of restoration through indemnity explains it as it is. If a person in the position of the archangel can be raised up, and can become an absolutely unchanging, loyal subject on God’s side, especially loved by Him, then Satan will have to immediately leave his position as the archangel. Thus, Jesus was born through a person in the archangelic position on God’s side. In this way, Jesus was born as the firstborn son. The right of the fallen eldest son was restored and purified into the new lineage, and Jesus was born with the right of the eldest son on God’s side. Therefore, those who believe in Jesus are reborn through the love of God, with God as their center. Through this, their lineage is different from Satan’s. (143-104, 1986.3.16)

The love of Jesus, the groom, and the love of the Holy Spirit, the bride, must unite into one. Their united love must then become one with your bones and flesh. In other words, as Jesus said, “I am in you, and you will be in me.” There can be no rebirth if the foundation of love is not established. (114-27, 1981.5.14)

5.2. Our attitude toward fulfilling our portion of responsibility

Summary:
Fallen humanity damaged ninety-seven percent of creation 🌎, making the path of restoration a difficult process of re-creation through suffering and setting up indemnity conditions. To fulfill our portion of responsibility ⚖️ and avoid the path of ruin, we must practice absolute faith and absolute obedience rather than selfishly insisting on our own way as Eve did. Because Adam and Eve failed by neglecting their duty, we must remain mindfully aware of our portion of responsibility twenty-four hours a day ⏰ in every routine activity of daily life.

Our Portion of Responsibility Stays With Us

It even continues when we pass into the spirit world

Cheon Seong Gyeong 798


Why did God create human beings? He needed a horizontal base in dimensional space. Countless cells can divide and emerge from this dimensional and spherical space. Therefore, God needed space because He wanted to produce the people of the Kingdom of Heaven through the bodies of Adam and Eve in the human world. Our married life becomes the factory for producing those people. People have been talking loudly without knowing these things. What kind of pretense is that? They are completely blind, yet still boast and brag about themselves. In the spirit world, such things will be exposed at once. The teachings I have given will unfold in the spirit world as a reality. (233-89, 1992.7.30)

In giving us love, how much would God want to give? God’s love is not given according to a limit that says a certain amount is enough. It is a love that wants to give infinitely. Even after giving everything, God will still say, “I want to live in you because of you.” What is the essence that brings this about? It is love. If love is present, God would be happy to live even as a servant. The father can feel joy even when his beloved little son climbs onto his dining table and poops there. Love transcends the law.

Section 5. Our Attitude toward Fulfilling Our Portion of Responsibility

5.1. Our portion of responsibility can be found in every field of human life

Summary:
The human portion of responsibility ⚖️ is an eternal law that remains with us throughout every stage of life, in death, and into the higher realms of the spirit world 🌌. This responsibility applies to all areas of daily life, from fundamental spiritual duties and church rules ⛪—such as arriving early and staying focused during services—to simple tasks like cleaning up after eating 🍽️. Just as employees must follow company guidelines to remain part of an enterprise, adhering to these laws protects us and allows us to grow, whereas failing to fulfill our responsibility leads to hardship and separation, similar to the fall of Adam and Eve 🍎.

If the Unification Church Had Not Appeared, God Could Never Have Been Understood

There has been no explanation as to why human beings have had to walk the path of great suffering and why, if God exists, an evil world came into being.

You should stand in a straight line with God at least during morning Pledge service. It is a truly serious hour. You should repent if you are even one second late. You should also prepare some candy as holy food, like you would for Holy Communion, and share it with your children. (27-85, 1969.11.26)

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1374


From this day forth, you do not need anything else but the true love of the True Parents. The task left for you to fulfill is to connect true life and lineage with true love. All of you must therefore be blessed by the True Parents. This is not a wild fancy. When I announced that I would bless 30,000 couples last year, pastors of established churches all laughed at me, saying “Ha! Ha! Ha! Listen to that dreamer, that half-crazed man!” (245-160, 1993.2.28)

Section 4. The Discovery of the Portion of Responsibility and its Significance

Summary:
The eternal law of the “human portion of responsibility” ⚖️ is a foundational concept created by God and uncovered through struggle by Rev. Moon, revealing that humanity must fulfill its given responsibility to receive God’s absolute love and complete His ideal of creation. Because the original human ancestors failed to complete this responsibility, Satan hid this truth, causing widespread social contradictions, spiritual suffering, and the ongoing need for “restoration through indemnity.” ⛓️ Understanding this law explains why evil and suffering exist, showing that only by paying indemnity and overcoming Satan can humanity restore its original dignity and establish the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth. 🕊️

It means that a foundation has been established upon which the origin of the heavenly kingdom can be connected to this earth.

We need to build processing factories in the western, southern, and eastern areas of Alaska, handling all aspects of the business. Though the fish are numerous, we have no capacity to process them. That is why I will now build a fish powder factory. Why do we need to make powder? It solves the storage problem. No matter how good a fish might be, it does not last more than eight months. Even frozen fish must be supplied with water again after eight months. Even though it is iced, air seeps into the ice because of the differences in climate. When air seeps in, the vapor from the fish goes out through the ice. Then the entire fish must be submerged in water again, frozen and then stored. But that should not be done. If you take the fish out and refreeze it a couple of times, a regular temperature cannot be maintained. Therefore, that produce will be discarded. (122-80, 1982.10.31)

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1255

The Fall changed Adam and Eve’s lineage. Whose love changed it? They became the embodiments of Satan through his love as God’s adulterous enemy. The living body of the man and the living body of the woman entered the realm of Satan’s love and united based on that; the fruit of this was their children who inherited Satan’s love, life and lineage.

Section 4. The Discovery of the Portion of Responsibility and its Significance

Summary:
In Unification Movement teaching, understanding the “portion of responsibility” ⚖️ and “restoration through indemnity” is considered a discovery of universal importance—even greater than major scientific breakthroughs—because these concepts unlock the true cause of history’s tragic conflicts. Because no human throughout history fulfilled their original responsibility, evil prevailed and good people suffered under Satan’s influence. By realizing and fulfilling this responsibility, conditions of goodness can finally overcome evil and resolve historical suffering. Ultimately, human ideals and the Kingdom of Heaven 👑 cannot be established through scholars or human intellect alone, but only through the True Parents 👨‍👩‍👧, who construct the foundation on earth to reconnect humanity with God’s true love 💖.

Adam and Eve were to Be the Body of God

They were to be the horizontal parents, while God was the vertical Parent.

Once South and North Korea are reunited, and the nation is filled with Blessed people, we will enter the era of registration. Once you have inherited the lineage of True Parents, the era of registration will be imminent. Through the worldwide expansion of the Blessing and subsequent registration of the five billion people in the world, the ancestral generations they will assume will be decided. Though they may all have received the Blessing at the same time, some will be thousands of generations higher than others. A very frightful era is coming. (252-246, 1994.1.1)

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1076

Is it not wonderful when the young- er sibling in a family does something wrong, and the other siblings support him and the parents love him? The mother and father would say, “He is our future God!” Why is that so? It is the same when you connect to God’s love. You should know that in a family with that kind of love, where the elder siblings love the younger ones like a mother and where the mother displays love when serving the father, God will be with that family and the children will become God’s representatives in the future.

3.2. Perfection is a family that has unified heaven and earth

Summary:
By fulfilling their portion of responsibility ⚖️, mature men and women unite through true love 👩‍❤️‍👨 to establish a secure root for God’s love, life, and lineage 🌳 on earth. Adam and Eve were meant to serve as God’s physical body, attaining the positions of true parents 👨‍👩‍👧, first sonship 👦, and kingship 👑 to connect the spiritual and physical worlds. Because the Fall destroyed this original ideal, humanity must undergo a rigorous path of restoration through indemnity ⚖️ to separate from the satanic world, change their lineage, and restore God’s true love 💖.
