Satan Is he Adulterer Who Deprived God of His Ideal of Love

He is the ringleader who destroyed God’s ideal of love and changed God’s lineage to the one centered on himself.

Cheon Seong Gyeong 897

What determines the division between heaven and hell? It is not decided by knowing or preaching the Bible well. It is decided through results and heart. In the end, the boundary line between heaven and hell is determined by the boundary line of the heart, and the boundary line of results. (32-231, 1970.7.19)

    Originally, when God as the Parent created Adam and Eve, He reaped the benefit of having children. At the same time, He enabled the children to benefit by having parents. God’s hope was to raise His children to perfection. Had this happened, it would be possible to say that God would have harvested both Adam and Eve.
    Then, why do we need parents and why do we need children? God is spiritual and human beings are physical. The parent-child relationship is also like this.
    The invisible God bears fruit through the visible child and then enters into the heart of the child to reveal His value as the visible God. The invisible God bears fruit within the child’s heart and the fruit of the child is then produced. It is possible to transfer the fruit of the father to the child. And thus, for God, both His fruit and the parent’s fruit are produced. They have equal value.
    Then, why are parents and children needed? Even though God possesses love, He needs a partner to share His love. We as children also need a partner to share our love. This partner relationship between parents and children is like the relationship of heaven and earth. It is a vertical relationship.

The Internal Meaning of Sin and the Fall

Section 1. The Fall Means the Father’s Place was Taken by Another

1.1. Satan, the devil, is our father

Summary:
The original Fall of humanity was not caused by literally eating a fruit , which is a metaphor, but by an illicit love relationship  between the first human family and the archangel Satan. This act destroyed God’s original ideal of love and altered the human lineage, causing people to be spiritually born into Satan’s lineage rather than as direct children of God. Understanding this root cause is essential for recognizing why humanity must be restored and adopted  back into God’s family.

Do You Think 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.

Cheon Seong Gyeong 895

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.

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.

The Way of the Principle is the Way of A Quest

The way of indemnity is a path that must be trodden.

Cheon Seong Gyeong 763

The spirit world is filled with the air of love. If your spirit self is not prepared, it will not be able to breathe in heaven. The world here is a world of air, but the other world is the spirit world of love. You have to prepare your spirit self so that it can feel love. Unless you do so, you cannot establish relationships in the spirit world. This is the problem and it will be compounded. It can take millions of years to resolve. (265-327, 1994.12.1)

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1496

Everyone must have a family. A family is composed of parents, children, and their possessions. What entities can manifest the substantial horizontal development of the vertical history of the Old, New, and Completed Testament Ages? The creation, the children and the parents – that is to say, parents, their children, and their possessions. Each one of them is required in order to form a family. (29-157, 1970.2.27)

Section 5. Our Attitude toward Fulfilling Our Portion of Responsibility

5.2. Our attitude toward fulfilling our portion of responsibility


Summary:
Because all of humanity is trapped below the realm of human responsibility in a fallen world largely controlled by Satan, everyone must undergo a difficult process of re-creation through indemnity ⚖️ to overcome this history of sorrow. A perfected leader (Rev. Moon) pioneered this path by following biblical precedents like Jacob, who risked his life wrestling an angel all night to earn his blessing and fulfill his duty. To overcome Satan and accomplish our portion of responsibility, we must love God above all else with absolute faith and devotion, transforming this path of suffering into a way toward spiritual liberation. 🕊️

  God has been relating to us from a position above the realm of the human portion of responsibility until this time. However, all people, who have fallen below that, must do all they can to make a bridge and raise themselves up. All of humankind is caught in that realm. The world is caught there and history is caught there. Those who have already gone to the spirit world, those living in the world at present, and all of posterity who are yet to be born will be unable to escape this misfortune. This is the fallen realm of bitter feelings.
    Thus, for us to be re-created we must absolutely pass through a course of struggle. Who is controlling this course of re-creation? Satan is. Satan rules up to 97 percent of this realm; beyond the 97 percent God is in control. This is how we must look at it. (115-67, 1981.11.4)

    Since human beings could not fulfill their own portion of responsibility, a perfected Adam must fulfill it. He must pioneer an unknown world. Thus the way of the Principle must be developed. We have to seek that out. The way of the Principle is the way of a quest; the way of indemnity is a path that must be trodden. Follow this way. You must go through that which Jacob indemnified, the indemnity of Jesus and the indemnity course of Moses, by walking the indemnity course of Rev. Moon of the Unification Church. Although the course may be a thousand miles long, you must walk it, even if you take just three or four steps. That conditional offering is precious. (233-306, 1992.8.2)

    Jacob knew that when the angel came he came as a messenger from God. Thus, he asked, “Did you come with the mission to destroy me? Or did you come to give me a blessing?” The angel replied, “I came to bless you.” So Jacob asked, “If you came to bless me, why are you withholding it from me?” The reply came, “I cannot just give it to you because your portion of responsibility remains.” In other words, Jacob had to wrestle with him and win in order to receive the blessing. That is to say, the blessing could not be granted unless he fought with his life. When challenged by the angel, Jacob determined to be victorious and rose up saying, “I see. All right, even if I lose my fingers or even my arms, I will not lose.” He then wrestled with the mind that he would not let go, even if he were struck by a sword, or had his head cut off. How long did they struggle? They struggled all through the night. He fought with the determination that he would not let go until he died. (20-228, 1968.6.9)

The indemnity course for the realm of the portion of responsibility must be set up. That responsibility has to be fulfilled based on what? It means to love God more than anyone else, with absolute faith and absolute love exceeding that of others. Without this, Satan will not surrender. (139-279, 1986.1.31)

    Have you ever felt gratitude for the words “portion of responsibility”? On the the path that those who have not fulfilled their portion of responsibility walk there are walls and potholes. It is the path of bitter sorrow that remains as the indemnity payment by which to obtain liberation. Since you know this truth, you must become Unification Church members who strive to progress along this path. Because this way exists I am also exerting myself every day to make it smoother. (138-120, 1986.1.19)

Remember Your Portion of Responsibility 24 Hours a Day

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)

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.

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 🍎.
