Will the Earth Literally Be Destroyed in the Last Days?

Among the existing things in the world there is no power that can match God’s because God is all-knowing, all-powerful, and absolute. God is also eternal, immortal and self-existing. But what is it that God desires? It is not money, knowledge, or power; so what does God desire? There is only one thing God absolutely needs, something absolutely needed by both humankind and God. It is true love. (Blessed Family – 302)

In the spirit world, you can travel billions of miles in a second because it is transcendent of time and space. You can look back a thousand, or even tens of thousands of years, and see things from the past. What would you be looking for when you looked into the past? If you looked at nothing else, what is it you would want? If you are a man, you would want to meet a woman. After meeting her, you would wonder how great the original love inside that person’s heart is, or how much love that person has. Love becomes the standard of measurement. (209-17, 1990.11.24)

Eschatology and the End of Human History

The Last Days have occurred several times, including the current time, right now.
This means that the earth will not literally be destroyed in the Last Days.
The verses in the Bible saying that are symbolic.
Fire is symbolic for God’s word. Satan’s sovereignty will be destroyed and God’s good sovereignty will be ascendant.

In 1992, we announced the Messiah and True Parents to the world. Focusing on America, we announced the True Parents and the Completed Testament Age starting on May 13, 1993. I have made all the necessary conditions. As you know, America represents the entire world. It is the final settling place in terms of the Christian cultural sphere. This is the time of transition into the new age centering on True Parents. We are entering the Completed Testament Age. Our proclamation was the first time in history for such an event. How long God must have been waiting for this time! How miserable God has been throughout history! Now the age of hope is approaching. We are entering into the age when we can proclaim the True Parents. It is a historical and universal event. Nothing like this has ever happened before in human history. (248-175, 1993.8.3)

Up until this time, if your beloved wife were to pass on to the spirit world, you would be separated from her. When you go there, you go to a level according to your own spiritual standard. Once you arrive in that world, you can press a button on something similar to a video machine, and everything you did in your life will come up. It is all recorded. Your number will be called out, and the person who brings you away will already be waiting there. Then you will go to your place. Even if there were ten people in a family, they will all be separated because the standards of their spirituality are all different. They cannot meet each other. Now this situation has been resolved.
Richard: The Blessing enables you to enter heaven along with your family members.

True Freedom Always Brings Joy to God

Cheon Seong Gyeong 880

You must invest yourself and then forget. If among a hundred members there is someone who is wearing poorer clothes than your sons and daughters, you should not be able to sleep. You should want to give him clothes. That is the heart of God, the heart of a parent. What is the leading system of thought of the Unification Church? It is to have a parental heart, wear the clothes of a servant, shed sweat for earth, tears for humankind and blood for heaven. What is heaven? It is the world of love to which you bring your children. You receive love and say that you will give it to the entire universe. I love God. I know everything right through from the spirit world to the physical world. (296-120, 1998.11.3)

Just as the love within the parent-child relationship is cherished in the physical world, if you live with such love on earth, you will attend God as your Parent and live your life in heaven as His child. (214-268, 1991.2.3)

Original Substance of the Divine Principle

The Human Fall

Freedom and desire allow us to serve God and build a good world.
God did not intervene in the Fall to maintain His absoluteness and the perfection of the Principle, so that He alone is the creator, and to give us humans the opportunity to govern over the creation by fulfilling our own responsibility.

What is the universe? It is like God’s visible body. It is an extension of God’s being. This is why the idea emerges that we can truly love. In other words, loving the universe is a very real experience. You stroke your hair like this, don’t you? When you get some dirt on your clothes, you brush it off, right? Why do you do this? Because they form a part of you. Because they are one with you, you have that attitude. From now on, you should bring God into the middle of your heart and build a unified world where your mind is one, your body is one, and all things are one. (86-173, 1976.3.28)

Christ at his Second Advent is coming to save humanity. Once the heavenly standard has been established, God is ready to strike. He takes the offensive. That does not mean that He kills His foes by executing them in the style of Stalin; instead, He makes them surrender at once. He must make Satan submit to Him, firstly through His ideology, secondly through His citizenry, thirdly through His sovereignty, and fourthly through His territory. Everyone desires to have ideals, friends, power, and money, and these four items represent the four that have been listed above. (12-169, 1963.3.16)

Richard: God’s plan of salvation is practical and follows natural law and the principles that God created. We are not going to float up into the sky ‘when Christ returns’. No, rather, we will work together to build the Kingdom of Heaven on earth.
The Unification Principle and Eight Textbooks presented by Rev. Sun Myung Moon compose the New Truth, the ideology. Like minded people, working together towards God’s will are the citizens. When you and I work to influence others with this New Truth, and with love, that is God’s sovereignty. Finally, our possessions, dedicated to God, comprise the possessions of the Kingdom of God.

The Human Fall

Sin is a violation of heavenly law which is committed when a person forms a common base with Satan and sets a condition allowing give and receive action with him.
There are four categories of sin, and there are four fallen natures that we all need to work and reverse to become godly people. There is no freedom without responsibility. Freedom did not cause the fall.

You should understand love. The purpose for every existence is love. You must keep this unchanging principle in your heart that tells you to pursue love and exist for love. Birds fly around, chirping, delighting in each other’s company, all because of love, and the positive and negative poles of magnets attract each other and stick fast, all because they want to become one in love. People always seek to meet their other half to become one with them. (67-159, 1973.6.1)

The 72 Couples are like the children, the descendants of the 36 Couples, while the 36 are the central couples as well as the ancestors. Our view is that our ancestors failed to fulfill God’s will because Cain and Abel, the two sons in the first family in history, failed to become one in heart, thus deferring the fulfillment of God’s will. In view of the fact that the foundation of the family, in which the brothers Cain and Abel should have united, was not established, who then are the 72 Couples? Seventy-two is thirty-six twice. Thus, the 72 Couples representing the children of the 36 Couples comprise 36 Abel and 36 Cain couples. They are the representative couples chosen to restore through indemnity that which the historical ancestors failed to accomplish: the complete unity of Abel and Cain. (84-144, 1976.2.22)

The Human Fall

God gave the commandment to Adam and Eve. not to eat the fruit, meaning not to have sex before God Blessed them in marriage, in order to prevent the Fall.The commandment was only necessary while Adam and Eve were immature; during the growing period.
Because of the fall, we all came under Satan’s dominion, as the ‘father of this world’.
We need to be liberated by changing our lineage to God’s side through the Blessing of marriage, and also reverse the right of ownership and the realm of heart.
