A Nation’s Citizens and all Humankind Emerge from Brothers and Sisters

Although the road was paved, it had to be connected with the spirit world and then to the physical world.

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1778

Where did your connection to love begin? Where was the starting point? It began with evil. The chief instigator of this evil was Satan the devil. What kind of involvement did this devil have? He was the adulterer of love. Human beings were born inheriting the flesh and blood of that adulterer. Then, is it the adulterer’s love that you want to receive? Did you want to receive the love from a stained lineage through that of an adulterer? No. That is the issue. (35-90, 1970.10.4)

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1077

A nation’s citizens and all humankind emerge from brothers and sisters. Siblings represent the front and back. Then what is two-dimensional takes on flesh. From here a sphere is created. Siblings create this sphere, and as they expand they become citizens of a nation. Brotherly love leads to love toward the world. A family that raises many siblings is like a model that embraces humankind and creates the ideal heaven in the Kingdom of Heaven on earth and in the spirit world. Consequently, siblings expand in number. (235-268, 1992.10.11)

4.3. Unification Ceremony and spiritual assistance

    What is the significance of True Parents’ birthday (sixth day of the lunar New Year)? After returning this time (1976), on the first day of the second month of the lunar calendar, I conducted what is called the Unification Ceremony. You may not know what this ceremony is.

I See No Obstructions Standing In My Way

The age is coming when the spirit world can return to the earth.

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1153

According to the original Principle of Creation, human beings were to be God’s sons and daughters. But due to the Fall, they became Satan’s children. Thus, God has been fighting with the adulterer Satan, face to face. Until now God has been employing a strategy to prevent the rise of the conditions that lead to Satan’s accusation and to take humanity back from him. Christians have had no idea about God’s dreadful situation. They think only of the glorious God, saying, “Oh, great God dwelling in the glory of heaven and earth!” (41-301, 1971.2.17)

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1396

My perspective is that I could easily achieve twice the goal that has been set. I see no obstructions standing in my way. After we have accomplished our goal, the whole world will fall backwards in amazement. You must remember that our enemies who pointed at us and laughed at us – prophesying that we would fail to accomplish the Blessing of 3.6 Million Couples – are waiting to see if we can actually do it. The lights must never be off. You cannot go to bed undressed. I have long awaited this day. All I’m asking is that you have the same consciousness about this. You must become independent and aware, ready to fight to the bitter end. Understand that you are working on behalf of God in expanding the dominion of the Judge and be fully determined to fulfill your responsibility. (288-39, 1997.10.31)

I Know All the Secrets of Confucius, Buddha and Jesus

The time of people and spirits attacking the earth is over.

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1948

God moved the sphere of world civilization from the Western continent, through the Mediterranean Sea centering on the Nile River, through Rome, and then Britain to form the continental civilization of America, and then on to the Pacific civilization sphere. To do that, God had to bring together the island civilizations, and next He needed a peninsular nation. In other words, God needed a peninsular region corresponding to that of Rome, which had influenced the cultural sphere around the Mediterranean Sea. You should know that this is Korea. The final fruits of Western Civilization, along with the final fruits of Asian civilization, should flourish on the Korean peninsula and be offered to God. (79-75, 1975.6.1)

Cheon Seong Gyeong 735

    I even asked Jesus, “Did you not die because of such and such?” and he replied, “Yes, I did. How did you, the leader of the Unification Church know all that?” By knowing such things, it is even possible for me to become a friend of Jesus.
    You or Christians may call Jesus, “Lord! Lord!” but I do not. We are friends. They call me a heretic for saying such things, but you will find out who is the heretic when you go over there. You should prepare the ground for all these things before you go.

Section 4. New Spiritual Age

4.1. The coming of the age of extrasensory perception

    It is not as if the spirit world ceases to exist when you cross over just one peak. In the future, the age of extrasensory perception will come, and then there will be no one who cannot communicate with the spirit world. The time of people and spirits attacking the earth is over. Now Satan and evil spirits are attacking, but there will come a time when good spirits will attack. I am doing this in order to pave the way for that.

Without Knowing God’s Will, there cannot be a Peaceful, Ideal World

When you go to the other world, thousands of generations of your ancestors will all be gathered there.

Happy Independence Day!

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1997

    We know that we have reached the point where it is futile to hope to establish a peaceful or unified world, in the true meaning of the term, through human power, wisdom, culture, or any other human qualities. Bearing this in mind, what is the central problem we are faced with in resolving the issue of world culture? Before anything else, we need to clarify the question of whether God exists or not.
    On the day when all people are aware of the fact that God does indeed exist, they will subsequently come to understand clearly where His will is heading. Once this is the reality, the world in which they live will become the ideal world of oneness and peace. (56-131, 1972.5.14)

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1023

    How many members with longing, yearning hearts have you met? I have met numerous such people. They visit from the ends of the earth to bow before me. Why is this? It is because I have already thrown the line of love, bonded in heart, to the ends of the earth, and because I have already sent an electrical current through it, they know the direction they have to go. That is how it should be. (171-30, 1987.12.5)

Section 3. Our Ancestors and Ourselves

3.4. Ancestors we can meet in the spirit world

    You must know what your house is like. It is a representative house for all the houses that people inhabit while living on earth. Not only that, it even represents the spirit world. You can live in that house. Those who have lived in this way can naturally and automatically go to the realm of the original homeland, their hometown. There will be no conflict when meeting grandparents or anyone else. Continue reading “Without Knowing God’s Will, there cannot be a Peaceful, Ideal World”

Through the True Parents we can Bequeath a New Lineage

No one living on earth until this time has ever seen God’s Day, True Parents’ Day, True Children’s Day, and Day of All True Things.

Cheon Seong Gyeong 2108

From God’s viewpoint, the essence of the universe is love. With love, unification will be automatically achieved. If we love at a higher level than Satan, Satan will also be pulled in. God created heaven and earth in order to give us the utmost goodness and love. (13-95, 1963.10.23)

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1100

No one living on earth until this time has ever seen God’s Day, True Parents’ Day, True Children’s Day, and Day of All True Things. There are 365 days in a year. You should clearly understand that the most important days among all 365 days are those days that I have just mentioned, which have now appeared in providential history. You should know that these days are the king of all days, and if a year like that existed it would be the king of all years. (92-252, 1977.4.18)

Richard: This Rheama repeats from yesterday, which is very unusual. We should pay special attention to this message from God.

Section 3. Our Ancestors and Ourselves

3.3. We should also visit our ancestral graves

    If your grandparents are deceased, you should visit their graves with the feeling that God is buried there. From now on, when they die, you are to mourn and wail bitterly. You should atone for the resentment you caused by not having served your grandparents well during your lifetime. Continue reading “Through the True Parents we can Bequeath a New Lineage”
