John 6

24 They saw that Jesus and his disciples had left. Then they got into the boats and went to Capernaum to look for Jesus. 25 They found him on the west side of the lake and asked, “Rabbi, when did you get here?”

26 Jesus answered, “I tell you for certain that you are not looking for me because you saw the miracles,[g] but because you ate all the food you wanted. 27 Don’t work for food that spoils. Work for food that gives eternal life. The Son of Man will give you this food, because God the Father has given him the right to do so.”

Jeremiah 32

Jeremiah, your cousin Hanamel, the son of your uncle Shallum, will visit you. He must sell his field near the town of Anathoth, and because you are his nearest relative, you have the right and the responsibility to buy it and keep it in the family.[c]

Richard:  We should pass our assets along to our child who is ready to keep God’s will and tradition, not just evenly to all children.  Some of your children may squander your assets and then your dynasty will die out after three generations or so.  This is the advice that Pastor Hyung Jin Moon gave us.

Our Determination Toward the Will

 Timothy 3

Church officers[d] should be serious. They must not be liars, heavy drinkers, or greedy for money. And they must have a clear conscience and hold firmly to what God has shown us about our faith. 10 They must first prove themselves. Then if no one has anything against them, they can serve as officers.

11 Women[e] must also be serious. They must not gossip or be heavy drinkers, and they must be faithful in everything they do.

12 Church officers must be faithful in marriage.[f] They must be in full control of their children and everyone else in their home. 13 Those who serve well as officers will earn a good reputation and will be highly respected for their faith in Christ Jesus.

2 Chronicles 28

Oded lived in Samaria and was one of the Lord’s prophets. He met Israel’s army on their way back from Judah and said to them:

The Lord God of your ancestors let you defeat Judah’s army only because he was angry with them. But you should not have been so cruel! 10 If you make slaves of the people of Judah and Jerusalem, you will be as guilty as they are of sinning against the Lord.

11 Send these prisoners back home—they are your own relatives. If you don’t, the Lord will punish you in his anger.

Flee From Immorality

CSG 2272

We know only too well that their
failure laid the ground for the bitter
anguish of a sad history. Through the
Fall we became distanced from God’s
laws, lost our true selves and trampled
upon God’s heart. And so, to recover
our true selves and the world of heart,
we have been groping to find our way
back through the course of restoration
according to the Word.
Fallen humankind fell to a position
more evil than that of any other form
of creation, a sorrowful position where-
in we cannot freely communicate with
God. Human beings cannot recover
from this fallen state on their own, so
God has enlightened them as He carried
out the history of re-creation. You should
know that by passing through the posi-
tions of servant, adopted son and son,
victorious dominion was attained and
that even the position of the True Par-
ents was restored. (14-239, 1965.1.1)

Jeremiah 31

33 Here is the new agreement that I, the Lord, will make with the people of Israel:

“I will write my laws
    on their hearts and minds.
I will be their God,
    and they will be my people.

34 “No longer will they have to teach one another to obey me. I, the Lord, promise that all of them will obey me, ordinary people and rulers alike. I will forgive their sins and forget the evil things they have done.”

The Nature of Love

CSG  486

In the relationship of husband and
wife, if their love is joined through a
strong force, they must be joyful and
feel their partner is lovely, no matter
what that partner does. If the wife says
that she hates the smell coming from
her husband’s body or if the husband
thinks or feels that he hates the way his
wife moves, this is only because a per-
fect love has not been realized between
them. This married couple only joined
together for some superficial purpose or
interest. (Blessed Family – 887)

Job 7

13 I go to bed, hoping for rest,
14 but you torture me
    with terrible dreams.

Japanese People Must Know Their Ancestors and Spirit World

Proverbs 30

These are the sayings
    and the message
    of Agur son of Jakeh.
Someone cries out to God,
    “I am completely worn out!
    How can I last?[a]
I am far too stupid
    to be considered human.
I never was wise,
    and I don’t understand
    what God is like.”

Has anyone gone up to heaven
    and come back down?
    Has anyone grabbed hold
    of the wind?
Has anyone wrapped up the sea
    or marked out boundaries
    for the earth?
If you know of any
    who have done such things,
    then tell me their names
    and their children’s names.

Everything God says is true—
    and it’s a shield for all
    who come to him for safety.
Don’t change what God has said!
    He will correct you and show
    that you are a liar.

Mark 2

Jesus went back to Capernaum, and a few days later people heard that he was at home.[a] Then so many of them came to the house that there wasn’t even standing room left in front of the door.

Jesus was still teaching when four people came up, carrying a crippled man on a mat. But because of the crowd, they could not get him to Jesus. So they made a hole in the roof[b] above him and let the man down in front of everyone.

When Jesus saw how much faith they had, he said to the crippled man, “My friend, your sins are forgiven.”

Some of the teachers of the Law of Moses were sitting there. They started wondering, “Why would he say such a thing? He must think he is God! Only God can forgive sins.”

Right away, Jesus knew what they were thinking, and he said, “Why are you thinking such things? Is it easier for me to tell this crippled man that his sins are forgiven or to tell him to get up and pick up his mat and go on home? 10 I will show you that the Son of Man has the right to forgive sins here on earth.” So Jesus said to the man, 11 “Get up! Pick up your mat and go on home.”

12 The man got right up. He picked up his mat and went out while everyone watched in amazement. They praised God and said, “We have never seen anything like this!”

Rev. Sun Myung Moon-HDK-8/2/04

Kodiak AK  9 pm

All True World Group Members must attend this HDK.  The Japanese Emperor’s spiritual message, I must deliver tonight here, especially 138 generation kings, their message, do you know that one.  If you know that  raise your hand?  You Japanese should published the SW message book and spread it out to every corner of Japan.  That way they will understand the ancestors, this is preparation to go the way the world should go.  Even though you are busy this HDK is very important.  You somehow connect with the spirit world message and connect with your ancestors. Whatever you do, fishing or any athletic activity or hunting, tomorrow you can do, but tonight we  are doing this HDK, especially Japanese members, Mr. Sun Gam Pak, all Japanese True World Group members should gather tonight here, and read the special message from the Japanese Kings.  Ah mo so Kami, he is a man or a woman?  If he is a woman, Ah mo so Kami should receive Blessing or not?  Ah mo so Kami is a human being or ghost or man and woman,  we are going to decide who is this.  We should know this fundamental issue, because this is the root of Japan;  we must know the root of how this was founded in Japan, and if you know that way/ideas you can receive help from the ancestors from Japan.  This is a very important issue.

You should know your emperor in Japan, you should know the ancestors.  You should be clear as to the direction where you will go in the future.  If we don’t know these ideas, we Japanese do not know where to go.  This is not using force.  We should acknowledge and recognize these whole content ideas.  Please start:……

[HDK read in Korean, and then translated into Japanese;  Father comments:]

It is so complicated, … that’s why we need one language.

Father wondered where is the first part

Father is really confused.  Three different languages, which one is which one.  (arranging translators)

American members should understand the difficulty in the Japanese spirit world. …Divine Principle is like a compass to guide all people.  Japan doesn’t know God is the Parent of Humankind.

In the Japanese spirit world there is darkness.  There is a small hot place with an incense smell; something is wrong there. People are eating worms in a dark corner.  Even if you have a big earthly position, you need to know God.  Follow Rev. Moon to find the new Truth.  ….All Japanese leaders must be lecturers.

The Japans spirit world reality is such a terrible reality.  You do not know what is truly the reality.  If you do not follow the Principle Ideas, you ancestors will take you away to spirit world, otherwise the future of Japan will have such a darkness.  Father knows all these ideas how to deal with, how to bring Japan to a better place, that is what Father is thinking now.

Kabaru(?) is the name of a Korean, also Kabura means no value.  When you think about the Meiji, there is no blood relationship.  It’s like the people fighting each other, but still the women have  Nothing to do with the heavenly lineage.   It is so confused.

It’s a Meji? Issue.  Matsushida, means under the pine tree, tanaka, Kawada, those names didn’t exist before the (meji issue).  Religion, Buddhism, Christianity, their laws came from Italy, Japan imitated the legal system from Italy.  Japan imported all of the political system from Europe,  and the German military, the Italian laws,  after 1000 years, it never changed.

Around the nation of Japan, .. great continent there is the bush spirit, the sword fighter spirit.  They are against the enemy, and they invade Kodota, which is Korea.(part of Korea)  Japanese island called Korea , Kodota-nai, that means ‘no value’, In Chinese tradition culture, ..is established by Koreans.  There is no sense that Korea belongs to Japan.

The island of Okinawa has been against Japan for a thousand years.  .  It’s a culture that comes from Korean culture.  That’s nonsense that Japan thinks they are ancestors. It’s not.  Japanese came from Korea.  All the criminals ran away from Korea and crossed the Japanese Ocean and went to Japan.  They rose against (those runaways) to get revenge against Korea.  The runaways are very miserable people.

When Japan the island nation had a hard time, they tried to invade Korea, using a battle ship, and tried to invade the southern part of Korea many times. How can God ask me to love Japan? When I think of past history there are 18,000 religions recorded in the Japanese education department.  Island nation.  Reviewing Japanese history, didn’t they think that they are number one under heaven?  In this world there is so much  information, so it has become clear what Japan did in Korea.  Through a computer website, you cannot hide anymore.  All the truth is revealed.

False transmission of information cannot reveal the truth.  You need to explain the true fact.  The world has to become the peaceful world.  Japan doesn’t know how to get out from this mess.  China, Russia, 360 million people. Middle East religion.  Soviet, India has Hinduism.  How can we absorb this religion.  We cannot embrace by Japanese Military or money.  How can you overcome.

Think of Genghis Khan, tried to invade the world, but he failed to invade Korea, he ran away from Korea.

You don’t read this kind of history. For 40 years Japan was under Korean occupation  Young people who are guided by Rev Moon  have to pay off the debt.  Unification Church women have to stand in the forefront and persevere.  Do you understand Japanese women?  Amito seri, Japanese God is a female God.

….  Father ordered Japanese women to Come to America.  Father is finding the way for Japan through Japanese women.

(General Macarthur) had a headquarters in Tokyo.  To be able to restore the Japanese after the Second World War.  There were ashes in Tokyo.  In 20 years Japan rebuilt again.  It is not because Japan is great, but because Father chose Japan as an Eve nation.

Japanese economic prosperity is not for Japan.

Baltic fleet defeated the Russian fleet.  They thought they can take over the world.  But God has a Providence for Japan as an Eve nation.
