    The individual perfection we speak of today is not the absolute and complete perfection of the individual. It is conditional. You must understand that this perfection is a conditional perfection in the process of restoration. That is why, though they stand in the position of parents, they do not truly know about God’s realm of heart. They have not experienced the great power of loving each other so much that the husband cannot give up his wife and the wife cannot give up her husband even in exchange for the universe. The love they share is so strong that it can hold heaven and earth together.
    That is why those families who have received the Blessing must bear in mind that until they cross over from this fallen realm, they are only in the realm of conditional perfection. They are not in the realm of the perfected Kingdom of Heaven. Since they are only living in that conditional realm of perfection, once they pass on to the spirit world, they need to go through certain formalities. Only after they go through due formalities and reach complete perfection can they receive their passports and enter the Kingdom of Heaven. (100-144, 1978.10.9)

Now, through the Sa-Sa Jeol (4.4. Day) declaration, which represents the number four, the southern hemisphere can be connected to the northern hemisphere and the heart of the Parents to the oceans. Although the great judgment of Noah’s time took place on the sea, based on the sea that did not face judgment and the principle of giving and receiving by all created beings, then all national messiahs and Blessed Families were called to gather here in Jardim in order to symbolize the coming together of all creation to the place of liberation. I have disclosed to all those who are here that, in the form of the global messiah, national messiahs, tribal and family messiahs, they should return following the Parents.
Richard:  Victory is ours, as Blessed families, if we claim it.  First we have to understand what a Blessed family is, and we have to practice true love and absolute sexual ethics within our Blessed family and exemplify those values to our family and neighbors.
Join us on November 19th for the Unification Principle Study, which is a great place to begin your journey as a Blessed family.  Peaceful families build a peaceful world.

True Family; Gateway to Heaven
Chapter Four

The Love of Man and Woman
in the Original Creation

Section 5. Men and Women Harmonize in Love

Man symbolizes heaven and woman, earth. The two must unite and
realize harmony. Men and women are different. Men’s muscles are
rugged and women’s are smooth. Men have beards while women do
not. Their voices are also different. If we compare men and women,
we see their contrasting features fit together well. Harmony unfolds
between them. When we look at the physical structure of human
beings, their left and right sides form a correlative pair. These two
halves are bound tightly together.

Ladies and gentlemen, do you like only high things or only low
things? You like things that create harmony. Judging from the line
formed by the horizon, fish live below and mammals, birds, and
other creatures live above. Women menstruate once a month, like
tidal variations based on the moon. Breathing is similar. A man
and a woman establish a line of balance and create harmony.
People like Disneyland, with its rides that go up and down,
because Disneyland duplicates the motions of the universe.

Which do you think will be more pleasing, a man harmonizing
with another man or a man harmonizing with a woman? A man
harmonizing with a woman is better because that reflects the
harmony of the universe. We should live in step with the beat of
the universe, the universe that promotes harmony through the
harmony of yin and yang. (Blessed Family – 344)

When man and woman create harmony, they initiate circular
movement. When man and woman become one body through
love and bear the fruits of love, God comes down and they go up
and they meet in the middle. God becomes the center of this
sphere, and spherical movement begins. The center of the sphere
is the place where harmony of love is realized. It is the place where
life emerges and moves, and it is the starting point of human
equality and communal philosophy. This is so because the power
of love is there. Thus, the force that embraces all interactions of
the universe is love. (Blessed Family – 344)

For human beings love is eternal. It is one and never divided. Once
a man and a woman are joined in love they are to live together for a
lifetime and then eternally even after death. They are two bodies
that become one body by uniting and revolving together. When the
two bodies become one, they revolve as God does and form a four-
position foundation of love, the expression of the ideal world of
love. Only true love dwells there and false love cannot invade. When
man and woman become blessed by God and achieve perfection,
God comes to them freely. When they form a four-position
foundation of love, they will come to love each other’s mind
through each other’s body, and when they come to love the mind
their body will follow. (Blessed Family – 344)

For what purpose does God designate Abel? He does it to establish the rights of the firstborn son and to correct the tradition within the family, not in order to save Abel’s children. Unification Church members don’t understand this point. You say, “Ahem! I am Abel,” but you leaders must remember that you cannot say, “Because we are in the position of Abel, that’s it!” The reason all of you are placed in your positions is to restore a tribe that holds the right of the eldest son. If you want to receive blessings, earn the right of the firstborn son and share the blessings, then you can receive some of them. The right of the firstborn son is not for you. Focused on the Lord who is to come, you must develop a connection with the vertical heavenly world. This will not happen with only the horizontal physical world. I was going to explain this last point in more detail in terms of the Principle but, as I believe you understand this, I am putting it in simple terms. Since I, the founder of the Unification Church, came to know this path, I could not help but establish the logic of “living for the sake of others.” We were born for the sake of others. You must also realize that man was born for the sake of woman. There is no such thing as “I”. (136-130, 1985.12.22)

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1429

There is no doubt that the Kingdom of God is a place that is governed according to the will of God, whose sovereignty is inherited by His children of direct descent, who follow the commands issued by Him as their center. In such a place, democracy or communism cannot exist. Once it is established, the kingdom would retain its system of governance eternally. Taking all this into consideration, how truly lamentable it is that you cannot be a citizen of such a nation. Therefore, you should lament the fact that you are not a resident of that nation. You should lament the fact that you are not qualified to be a part of it. We should all lament the fact that we do not have such an unchanging sovereignty anywhere. (72-292, 1974.9.1)

Chapter Four

The Love of Man and Woman
in the Original Creation

Section 4. Love Comes from One’s Partner

Love cannot be realized by oneself. Where does love come from?
Love does not come from me but from my spouse. Since love
comes from my spouse, I must bow my head and serve her. This is
where the heavenly principle of living for the sake of others
originates. When something highly noble comes to me, I must
honor and serve it in order to receive it. We must live the
philosophy of living for the sake of others. (143-277, 1986.3.30)
When we are alone, love cannot manifest itself. Love does not
appear when man is alone, but only when woman appears as his
object of love. Only when the object of love appears, does love
finally spring forth. (Blessed Family – 342)

If the world had listened to the words of True Father, a world of peace, the Kingdom of Heaven, would have been established on earth in 1952. Then, what I am teaching you about now, namely, the tribal messiahs, would have been dispatched across the world. Since there are 800 million Christians in the world, 800 million people would have stood on True Father’s side, and tribal messiahs would have emerged from towns of every description, with three generations from each family all being tribal messiahs. If this had taken place, the satanic world would have completely come to an end. Then a constitution, which would dictate how the world of the future should be governed would have been enacted and followed. That is why I have not yet taught you in detail the direction you have to take with your family. One thing you must remember is that the era of the great exodus is coming. The families who have followed the words of True Father, and have become tribal messiahs and blessed 160 families, are eligible for registration. Father will then decide the ancestors; who will be the first generation, the second, third, or fourth. Once the ancestors are established, kingship will exist. Therefore, we need to establish the family belonging to the kingship. (273-46, 1995.10.21)

    The spiritual and physical worlds must be equalized, even hell. The path should be pioneered all the way to the foundations of the kingdom of peace, in order to break down the gates of hell and open the gates of heaven. God will then be able to traverse freely anywhere in the earthly world and spirit world…. The threshold of grief that is hell is of no use to God. It should all be broken down. No one knows that.
    Then, what is it that I have done? Down as far as hell, I have broken down the gates of the individual and all the things that have blocked the physical and spirit worlds…. I must create a highway. I have to make equalization. This is not only for the earth. The spirit world must all be leveled. The family, tribe, people, nation, world and cosmos must be leveled. How is this possible? It is possible by a man and a woman forming a family…. (302-226, 1999.6.14)

Chapter Four

The Love of Man and Woman
in the Original Creation

Section 3. Men and Women Absolutely Need
Each Other

Love is something you absolutely need, isn’t it? Is that right?
Human beings, a man and a woman, are an absolutely necessary
element for love. Man needs woman and woman needs man. How
much do they need each other? They need each other more than
Korea, more than the world, and even more than God. Also, if
there were no women, the entire human race would perish within
a hundred years. No matter how much man boasts of unifying the
world, all would be gone within one hundred years if there were
no women. Therefore, women are absolutely necessary. (25-180,
1969.10.4)

When we say “human beings,” we mean man and woman. When
we look at a man, he has to be with a woman, and when we look at
a woman, she has to be with a man. Man is not born through his
own desire, nor is woman born through her own desire. Both
need each other. After their birth, they discover they are either a
man or a woman. (67-267, 1973.7.22)

When you were born as a man, were you born with or without the
knowledge that there are women? If a man were born and found
out that there are only men, would he not feel bad? And if a
woman were born and found out that there are only women, she
would feel bad, wouldn’t she? So when a woman is born, is she
born with or without the knowledge that there are men? Although
I was born without knowing it, the one who gave birth to me
knew it. The reason one is born as a woman is that there is a man
who needs her. Likewise, the reason I am born as a man like this is
that there is a woman who needs me. Isn’t that right? We are all
born like this, with God’s knowledge. (37-19, 1970.12.22)

Man absolutely needs woman. Man absolutely needs God, but
before this he needs a partner called woman. Human history has
been miserable because men have failed to correctly understand
the absolute need for women. Conversely, women have not
understood that they absolutely need men. Tasting true love
requires a realm of ideal, and for this man needs woman and
woman needs man. You should know that an absolute man and
absolute woman pursuing true love are joined through their
efforts of becoming one in heart. When such a man and woman
are joined as one, God comes and dwells with them. (Blessed
Family – 340)

God does not like to see a couple joined by true love separate;
therefore, the love of an absolute man and woman is eternal.
Although God is omniscient and omnipotent, God’s existence
absolutely has no meaning when He is alone. Similarly, no matter
how handsome and healthy a man may be, these things have no
meaning if he is without a woman. A man living in fascination with
his own good looks and health leads an ugly existence and has no
value before God. The problem is that there are many men in the
world who have sunk into such narcissism and this constitutes a
reason why history has moved toward tragedy. You have to know
that God’s providence works to change and improve the world
immersed in such self-centeredness. (Blessed Family -340)

    If I had worked for only the family until now, why would I have been persecuted? I am confident that if my father, mother, clan and all my remote relatives were gathered in one place, I could inspire them all through my words. I am supremely confident of bringing them all to God’s will. However, I could not do that because it was not God’s will. Jesus was driven away by his own relatives because he could not do it either.
    However, you have passed all this and welcomed the circumstances of this era in which you can witness to your relatives. You may hold on to your parents and express your sincere heart to them, even shedding tears. In that sense, you are in a better situation than I. If your parents or relatives are unwilling to accept God’s will, now is the time for you to move their hearts through tearful pleas or any other means. The time when you can freely witness is here. Although you may have a difficult time dealing with your elder brother, you can at least witness to your younger siblings, even if you have to do so forcibly to make them believe. Although you have ushered in such a time, if you do not fulfill your responsibilities, you cannot face God. Henceforth, I, too, cannot deal with such people.
    Those who do not do this cannot go to heaven. You go there only by forming your family. (21-65, 1968.9.1)

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1011

    The church is the base through which the past, present, and future are connected. Therefore, it acts as a mediator through which indemnity conditions can be established; it is a place where the Word, nobility of character, and quality of heart can unite. (The Way of the Spiritual Leader – 238)

Chapter Four

The Love of Man and Woman
in the Original Creation

Section 2. The Reason Men and Women Are Born

What is the original purpose of a man’s birth? We cannot deny the
fact that he is born for the sake of a woman. Likewise, woman is not
born for her own sake. We should know that a problem will arise if a
woman fails to comprehend on her own that she is born for the sake
of a man. Because God, the great owner of heaven and earth,
established this as a principle of creation, we cannot enter the world
of goodness, truth, happiness, and peace or the world of love and
ideal unless we follow this principle. (Blessed Family – 337)

A woman is born to meet a man, and a man is born to meet a
woman, are they not? This is the highest truth. Therefore, we
should find the realm of blessing that conforms to this principle.
Deviating from this highest realm of truth constitutes the highest
evil. (21-201, 1968.11.20)

Men and women are physically opposite. Whereas women are
one-directional, men are three-directional or four-directional.
Women are more likely to enjoy staying at home, and men are
more likely to enjoy traveling the world. The characters of men
and women are opposite. How can men and women become one?
They become one through love. Love unites human beings and
God. (38-255, 1971.1.8)

Why is man born? He is not born for the sake of academic
pursuits, money, or political power. He is born for the sake of
woman. Man is born for the sake of woman. Men have larger
physiques, not so they can earn a living only for themselves, but so
that they can earn a living for their children and wives. Man’s
sexual organ and woman’s sexual organ are different. For whom
do they exist? They did not come into existence for their own
sake. Man’s sexual organ came into existence for the sake of
woman. Likewise, woman’s sexual organ is for the sake of man.
Have you ever thought like this? This is not something to laugh
about. What is the symbol of the love of man and woman? Where
is the final destination of love? It is the sexual organ which makes
them one body. (143-275, 1986.3.20)

The sexual organ becomes a channel through which the mind and
body can completely merge through love. That which man has is
not his, and that which woman has is not hers. Man has what
belongs to woman, and woman has what belongs to man. Men
and women are not born for their own sake. They should know
clearly that they are born for the sake of their partner. Why are
men and women born on earth? They are born in order to love
each other. Since God is the great king of wisdom, He switched
ownership of their love organs. (132-146, 1984.5.31)

A man has a sexual organ, but that does not mean that he is its
owner. The same is true for woman. Those who have acted
carelessly with no regard for their sexual organ’s ownership will be
judged. If men know that they will receive punishment under the
most fearful law, would they dare think of other women instead of
their own wives? Conversely, can wives think of other men instead
of their own husbands? (Blessed Family -340)

Everyone must realize that free sex is Satan’s domain of love filled with ensnaring evil spirits to bring about the downfall of humankind and expand hell on earth. From the viewpoint of the God of absolute love, the grandmother and grandfather are one; they cannot be separated. They must absolutely become one centering on God, and centering on love. What is love? It is fitting convex and concave together absolutely; mother and father, husband and wife, son and daughter – all must unite in this way absolutely. This is what God wants. (280-135, 1996.11.24)

Cheon Seong Gyeong 719

Then what constitutes good and evil? God wants the good and evil spirit realms and people on earth to be harmonized. Once they are, every individual will pursue the fulfillment of the ideal dual purposes: the purpose of the individual and the purpose of the whole. People have dual purposes, that of the individual and that of the whole.

Chapter Four

The Love of Man and Woman
in the Original Creation

Section 1. The Original Love of a Man and
a Woman

When man and woman are in love, whether their love is in accord
with God’s will and the standard He requires of them is the
question. Is their love in accord with the model of love in God’s
mind? We come to the conclusion that if the first man and woman
had become one in love based on the love of God, then their love
would have become the universal model of love. God must have
desired such love from human beings. Likewise, man and woman
must have wanted this love from each other. Such true love must
be the core of the universe. It becomes the standard of
measurement. (Blessed Family – 334)

God’s love and human love are the same in essence. Love causes
oneness. Why do a man and a woman long for each other? It is
because a man can possess God only through a woman, and a
woman can possess God only through a man. In other words, they
long for each other because God comes and dwells where a man
and a woman have become one in love. (Blessed Family – 334)

Considering that the source of the dual characteristics is God, we
should simultaneously sing praises for the noble value of God and for
the dignity and value of men and women. (Blessed Family – 334)

When God’s beloved woman lives in a man’s heart and God’s
beloved man lives in a woman’s heart as well, these two become
his object partners, and when they love each other, God will be
delighted to see this love and all things will rejoice. Heaven and
earth will rejoice to see a man and woman with these values
embrace. When man and woman embrace each other in mutual
fondness, this mutual fondness becomes the point where the
universe unifies. This is how the original image unfolds in God’s
ideal. (Blessed Family – 334)

Originally, a man should meet a woman with whom he can rejoice,
and a woman also should meet a man with whom she can rejoice.
More than this, it should be an encounter over which both God and
all things of creation can rejoice. Then, all creation will be mobilized
for this couple and want to be ruled by them. Birds will sing and
butterflies will flutter and dance with joy. God will rejoice, people will
rejoice, everything will rejoice. Had the first human ancestors started
history by establishing such a position, the world would be the
original, ideal world. (Blessed Family – 334)
