World War III Is Raging

Cheon Seong Gyeong 2484

Who unifies the spirit world and physical world? People. So we strive to advance the unification. We must progress daily and cannot retreat. Strive to advance. When you live in this world, instead of living only in one region, you should create many relationships and move in such a way that you can influence the whole. As the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter change and as north, south, east and west rotate, you also should not stay just in one country. Once national borders are gone and the world is unified in this way, you should live going around the world as you please. When you go to a place you should not inflict loss on the people there. You should strive to advance. You should not live playing around. (266-150, 1994.12.22)

    Yet in the spirit world this is reversed. In terms of our birth on earth, I am in the position of the elder brother and Heungjin in that of the younger brother. I am in Cain’s position and Heung-jin in Abel’s position.
    In the spirit world, Heung-jin becomes the eldest son. He is in the position of the elder brother and all the other spirits are in the position of younger siblings. Based on the realm of heart, that is how it is. From God’s standpoint, He is the Father, I am the elder son and Heung-jin is the younger son. In the spirit world, Heung-jin is the eldest son based on the realm of love and all others in the spirit world stand in the position of younger siblings. There is a reversal. Thus, we reach the conclusion that the standard of heart for the right of the eldest son finds its correct position and settles there. You must teach this well when giving a Principle lecture. Now, in accordance with the realm of heart, before all the people in the spirit world, including even Jesus and all the good saints, Heung-jin is first to be born as the eldest son. From the viewpoint of the realm of heart, Heung-jin is the first son and the others are the second sons who are next to be born.
    Consequently, Heung-jin can let the realm of the second son inherit the blessings of the right of the first son. Satan tried to prevent this from happening by plundering the inheritance. But Heung-jin, who now stands in the realm of the first son, delivered all the blessings he received while on earth. So there is a connection being made. Heung-jin unceasingly endeavors to pass these blessings on, whereas the satanic world resists doing do. (131-52, 1984.4.1)
Richard:  Heung-jin is Rev. and Mrs. Moon’s second son.  He died in a car accident in 1984.

The Principle of Restoration

The Period of Preparation for the Second Coming of Christ

    World Wars I, II, and III involved and involve conflicts between three heavenly nations on God’s side and three evil nations on Satan’s side.  The victory of World War I resulted in the forming of the League of Nations.  The Victory of World War II resulted in the forming of the United Nations.  The Victory of World War III will result in a World Government.  See slide 15 below.
[(Richard)  Note that this will not be the current Satanic, godless world government.  Rather, it will be a world of coexistence, co-prosperity and common righteousness.]
The central figures on the Satanic side in the World Wars are the Kaiser in World War I, Hitler in World War II, and Stalin in World War III.  Stalin promoted a policy of world Communization.
The First and Second World Wars paved the way for the Second Coming of Christ.  The Third World War is about the restoration of God’s sovereignty and the construction of the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth.
Whether the Third World War will play out as a purely ideological conflict or through armed conflict (which will be imperfect) depends on how the human portion of responsibility is carried out.
Richard:  The core of this conflict of World War II is the battle to put in place absolute sexual ethics, that is, the teaching of faithful marriage and abstinent preparation for faithful marriage.  As we can see, Satan’s strategy is to corrupt youth and put in place perverse sexual ethics of all kinds, like transgenderism, sexual confusion of all kinds, sexual immorality and homosexuality.  Thus, we see the rapid and almost mind-boggling expansion of perverse sexuality.  Why?  Because Satan is desperate to keep sovereignty and destroy God’s ideal for the family.  We must actively work to promote faithful marriage and abstinent preparation for faithful marriage.

The Continuing World Wars Are Satan’s Struggle to Maintain Sovereignty

    Through the true love of the Cosmic Parent and the Parents of heaven and earth, we were able to attain oneness of mind, body and mindset, and based on the True Parents who are the object partners of Your love, the true love from True Parents, True Children and true lineage, I was able to complete the settlement of the true perfected family. Through the Fall Adam and Eve had failed and as false parents defiled the lineage, but the True Parents had overcome all this and completely cleansed it. In the place of blessing to liberate Adam’s family, You, through the Parents of heaven and earth, blessed hundreds of billions of people in both the spiritual and physical worlds with one heart, body and mindset in order to purify the defiled lineage.
     In the position of sons and daughters that attained oneness in the bosom of the Cosmic Parent and the Parents of heaven and earth, those in the spirit world, beginning from the liberated hell and paradise and from all directions, are able to go directly to Your throne. I am very grateful for Your allowing me to hold the Coronation of the King of the Blessed Families of the Peace and Unity of the Cosmic True Parent and the True Parents of Heaven and Earth that will enable You and the True Parents to attain oneness of mind and body in the position of the original substantial form, and cross over the line to start for the ideal heavenly world of the family, so that they can exist in the position of all-transcendence, all-immanence, supreme authority and omnipotence.
    I pray that from today the powers of evil will retreat and the powers of goodness will advance and, by assuming overall command and leadership, strive to establish the new heavenly civilization, so that the glory and grace of heaven will fill the entire cosmos and all Blessed Families worldwide will inherit the sovereignty of the love and liberation of the physical and spirit worlds, and thereby become worthy to be the registered Blessed Families of the Nation of Cosmic Peace and Unity.
   On this day and in this place where the Cosmic Parent and the Parents of Heaven and Earth have attained oneness of mind and body, I declare and direct that everyone will strive to achieve the age of sovereignty of the one ideal, of the unified world of Cheon Il Guk based on the liberation of heaven. I pray that You will let us achieve everything in accordance with our desires. I report this in the name of the True Parents. Amen! Amen! Amen! (404-288, 2003.2.6)

If you want to become a partner in true love, you must stand in the zero position. When that happens, God says, “Yes, yes!” and when He looks at the earthly world, He shines as the sun shines on the earth. The instant two people explode in love, even God in the spirit world will be surprised at what He sees. God will say, “Oh! Yes!” That phenomenon of love is the signal flare. On seeing that flare, God will visit the place where that couple are emptying themselves in a zero position, blazing with the fire of love that shines like the sun. He will want to go inside and spend the night in that place of first love. (202-34, 1990.5.1)

    Religious, political and industrial revolutions occurred following the Renaissance.
These revolutions have gone through three stages. See slide 14 below.
    The society fulfilling the ideal of creation will be a society of co-existence, co-prosperity and common righteousness. Distribution of goods will be fair and just. The political community will overcome egotistical selfishness. Absolute sexual ethics will be taught.
    The World Wars had both internal and external causes. The internal cause was and is due to God’s providence. Satan has been making his last struggle to preserve his sovereignty. We can see this struggle continuing today. There is political confrontation between God’s side and Satan’s side, economic confrontation centered on claiming territories. There is an ideological battle between God’s side and Satan’s side that is continuing right now.
    See slides 14 to 17 below
Richard: We all need to be active in this struggle for goodness and God’s side. The fundamental essence of this struggle is the teaching and implementation of absolute sexual ethics, meaning no sex outside of marriage and abstinent preparation for marriage.

The Separation of Powers Is a Structure of the Ideal World

    Human beings need to be in parent-child relationships, husband-wife relationships, and brother-sister relationships. In other words, these three relationships must meet at one point. There is one central point. The central points for above and below, left and right, and front and back should not be separate. If the central points are different, the balance between the relationships of above and below, left and right, and front and back will be shattered.
    Eventually, therefore, the positions of above and below, left and right, and front and back, together with the one central point, form the number seven. Forming the number seven means to become one with God through perfect true love and to form a family in which everything becomes a perfect sphere and achieves harmony and unification. (299-114, 1999.2.7)

Why do you feel good when you see your beloved wife? When you are alone, you cannot stand in the position in which you are supported by the spherical four directions of the universe. But with your spouse, you make a horizontal love relationship where you have give and take with her and establish a position where you can contact the vertical power of the universe. Thus, the one who has a spouse becomes infinitely happy through the supportive power of the universe. This is why when you see your beloved wife, your entire mind becomes focused and you cannot see anything but her. So you dance and sing with her, spinning round together. Why do you dance, sing and rejoice? To expand the realm of support. (Blessed Family – 901)
Richard:  Wow!  What a beautiful description of marriage.

The Period of Preparation for the Second Coming of Christ

The third sub-period of the period for the preparation for the second coming of Christ is the period of maturation of politics, economy and ideology.  This period lasted for 130 years, starting from the time of the French Revolution and the Industrial Revolution in England until the end of the First World War (1789-1918). 
The French revolution exemplified Cain-type democracy which was the foundation for communism.  When Christians fought absolutist forces in England and the United States in pursuit of freedom of religion, this formed abel-type liberal democracy.
The separation of powers is an important concept of democracy.  The structure of the ideal society is similar to the structure of the human body, where the stomach, heart and lungs all have different, but related functions, centered on the brain. 
The Industrial Revolution that began in England arose in order to restore a living environment suitable for an ideal society.

What Would You Do with a Diamond Mine?

Cheon Seong Gyeong 995

Let us say that there was a diamond mine. What would you do if there were such a place that only you knew of? You might have to even sacrifice being with your family in order to acquire such a place. It would not be a sin to sacrifice being with your wife in order to save many families. It is also not a sin to sacrifice being with your children in order to save numerous children in the nation. However, you should not sacrifice them to satisfy your own self-interest. The path for saving the nation and a people is that diamond mine; it is the path of life for the people throughout the entire world. In that case, history would not view this as a sin – the sacrifice of your wife and child. It may seem wrong to sacrifice your wife and child to save the nation and world; however, on the contrary, it is there that you will find a wealth of treasure which the whole world can praise. (21-314, 1968.12.8)

When balancing the ledger of a store, you have to calculate revenue and expenditure accurately. In balancing the accounts of a mere store, you have to exercise care. However, do you pay as much attention when you balance the accounts of your life? Have you ever even tried to balance the accounts of your life? Have you gone into the red, or are you in the black? If you see red ink, you should lament most grievously. People should be able to sing for joy on their deathbed. If you find yourself struggling to accept the reality of death when face it, that struggle only goes to show that you have lived a life in the red. We should lead our lives in the black in the realm of heart, based on the absolute standard. (19-289, 1968.3.10)

The Period of Preparation for the Second Coming of Christ

The second sub-period of the period of preparation for the second coming of Christ is the period of religious and ideological conflict, from 1648 and ending with the French Revolution in 1789.
God unfolded his providence of restoration through a history of dividing Abel-type and Cain-type groups and peoples  In the Last Days of human history, the world itself will be divided into an Abel-type world and a Cain-type world.
The Cain-type view of life is humanism. Marx and Engels were two of the Cain-type figures of humanism. These views of life fused together atheism and materialism.
The Abel-type view of life is God-centered and culminated in the Protestant Reformation during this period.

The Period for the Preparation for the Second Coming of Christ began in 1517

    The society of the ideal world will be characterized politically by principles of interdependence, economically by mutual prosperity and ethically by universally shared values. The core content of the principle of interdependence is co-ownership based on God’s true love. The basic model of the society of interdependence is the family. By co-ownership, I do not mean ownership merely in relation to material possessions, but ownership based on God’s love.
    In the family, even though all property would be legally held in the parents’ names, in practice it would be jointly owned by the parents and children; that is, by the whole family. At the same time, the individual family members are allocated their own rooms, clothing and allowances. In this way, in the family, the whole purpose and the individual purpose are harmonized. When this ideal form of ownership of the family, based on such love, expands to the society, nation and world, it becomes the form of ownership of the ideal society. (271-76, 1995.8.22)

I have undergone hardships throughout my life, but I never intended to indemnify history so that I could obtain a high position with many luxuries. I gave up the blessings that I could have enjoyed. I want to suffer together with you and rise to the high position where I can be respected by the whole nation together with you. You must know that my hope is to see the day of joy when this nation is liberated. (181-66, 1988.8.28)

The Period of Preparation for the Second Coming of Christ

The Period for the Second Coming of Christ is 1517 to 1918 (400 years).  This period is divided into three sub-periods.
The first sub-period is the Period of the Reformation, which started in 1517 with the proclamation of Martin Luther.  This period ended in 1648 with the Treaty of Westphalia.
The Renaissance was an external movement to restore the original human nature.  The Reformation was an internal movement for the revival of Hebraism.
