7 After Boaz finished eating and drinking and was feeling happy, he went over and fell asleep near the pile of grain. Ruth slipped over quietly. She lifted the cover and lay down near his feet.

Obadiah 1

15 The day is coming
when I, the Lord,
    will judge the nations.
And, Edom, you will pay in full
    for what you have done.

Richard: God continues to indicate that He is very unhappy with the massive fraud, deceit and theft of the Presidential election, and that that those responsible will pay the price.

Angels

3. Man’s Superiority to Angels

Do you not know that we are to judge angels?
    1 Corinthians 6.3

Behold, your Lord said to the angels, “I will cre-
ate a vicegerent on earth.” They said, “Wilt
Thou place therein one who will make mischief
therein and shed blood? —while we do cele-
brate Thy praises and glorify Thy holy name?”
He said, “I know what you know not.”
    And He taught Adam the names of all
things; then He placed them before the angels,
and said, “Tell me the nature of these, if you are
right.”
    They said, “Glory to Thee! Of knowledge
we have none, save what Thou hast taught us:
in truth it is Thou who art perfect in knowledge
and wisdom.”
    He said, “O Adam, tell them their natures.”
When he had told them, God said, “Did I not
tell you that I know the secrets of heaven and
earth, and I know what you reveal, and what
you conceal.”
    Qur’an 2.30-33

When Moses ascended on high, the ministering
angels spoke before the Holy One, blessed be
He, “Sovereign of the Universe! What business
has one born of woman among us?” “He has
come to receive the Torah,” He answered them.
They replied, “That secret treasure, which You
have hidden for nine hundred and seventy-four
generations before the world was created, You
desire to give to flesh and blood! ‘What is man,
that Thou art mindful of him, And the son of
man, that Thou visitest him?’ ‘O l ord our God,
How excellent is Thy name in all the earth!
Who hast set Thy glory [the Torah] upon the
heavens!’” (Psalm 8.5, 2).
    “Reply to them,” said the Holy One to
Moses…
    Moses then spoke before Him, “Sovereign
of the Universe! The Torah which You give me,
what is written in it?” “I am the l ord your God,
which brought you out of the Land of Egypt”
(Exodus 20.2). He said to the angels, “Did you
go down to Egypt; were you enslaved to Pharaoh;
why then should the Torah be yours? Again, what
is written in it? ‘You shall have no other gods’
(Exodus 20.3); do you dwell among peoples that
engage in idol worship? Again, what is written in
it? ‘Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy’
(Exodus 20.8); do you perform work, that you
need to rest?… Again, what is written in it? ‘You
shall not murder. You shall not commit adultery.
You shall not steal’ (Exodus 20.13-15); is there
any jealousy among you; is the evil Tempter
among you?” Straightaway the angels conceded
to the Holy One, blessed be He, for it is said, “O
l ord our God, How excellent is Thy name in all
the earth,” (Psalm 8.10) whereas “Who hast set
Thy glory upon the heavens” is not written. 29
    Talmud, Shabbat 88b-89a (Judaism)

Teachings of Rev. Sun Myung Moon

Angels are beings that serve God. Hence, should the sons and daughters of God appear, they should rule the angels. It is the dignity of human beings to rule the angels. (84:98, February 22, 1976)
 
It was not only to prevent their fall that God gave immature human beings the commandment.30God also wanted them to enjoy dominion over the natural world—including the angels—by inherit-ing His creative nature. In order to inherit this creatorship, human beings should perfect themselves through their faith in the Word as their own portion of responsibility. 
 
 
God gave the commandment not to the Archangel but only to the human beings. God wished to exalt the dignity of human beings as bestowed by the Principle of Creation, which entitled them to stand as God’s children and govern even the angels. (Exposition of the Divine Principle, Fall 3.2

Protecting and Guarding the Chastity of Men and Women Is the Same as Protecting the Universe

Cheon Seong Gyeong 325

What is the difference between true
love and authority? In true love, you
give love and then forget that you have
given it. What is the line between good
and evil? Evil is where something is giv-
en with the intention of receiving all
the benefit for oneself, and goodness is
where, even though you give, you forget
that you have done so. Even in a house-
hold, those who serve others more stand
on the good side, and the one who lives for
others most becomes the master of that
family in the end. Let us say there are ten
friends. Which would be the best among
them? The one who cares for all the oth-
ers. Then the ten friends would make the
one who was taking care of them the cen-
tral figure and serve him. This is how the
universe is inherited. (141-252, 1986.2.26)

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1289

Protecting and guarding the chastity
of men and women is the same as pro-
tecting the universe. This is because the
order of love between men and women is
the basis of the universe.
The sexual organ is more important
than the head. You cannot find the ori-
gin of true love in your head. You can-
not find the origin of true life in your
head. You cannot find the origin of true
lineage in your head. Where is this ori-
gin, then? It is in the sexual organs. Isn’t
that only too true? Everything can be
found in the sexual organs – life, love,
and lineage. It is the main palace of love.
You can find the root of life there. It is
the same in the case of the lineage. The
sexual organ is the most precious part
of the human body as well as the human
world and history of humanity. Without
it, reproduction of humankind would be
impossible. (203-104, 1990.6.17)

2. War Among the Angels

Now war arose in heaven, Michael and his
angels fighting against the dragon; and the
dragon and his angels fought, but they were
defeated and there was no longer any place for
them in heaven.
Revelation 12.7-8

Say: It has been revealed to me that a com-
pany of the jinn gave ear. Then they said, “We
have indeed heard a Qur’an wonderful, guiding
to rectitude. We believe in it, and we will not
associate with our Lord anyone. He—exalted by
our Lord’s majesty! —has not taken to Himself
either consort or a son.
    “The fools among us spoke against God
outrage, and we had thought that men and jinn
would never speak against God a lie. But there
were certain men of mankind who would take
refuge with certain men of the jinn, and they
increased them in vileness, and they thought,
even as you also thought, that God would never
raise up anyone.
    “And we stretched towards heaven, but we
found it filled with terrible guards and meteors.
We would sit there on seats to hear; but any
listening now finds a meteor in wait for him.
And so we know not whether evil is intended
for those in the earth, or whether their Lord
intends for them rectitude.
“Some of us are righteous, and some of us
are otherwise; we are sects differing… Some
of us have surrendered, and some of us have
deviated.” Those who have surrendered sought
rectitude; but as for those who have deviated,
they have become firewood for hell.
Qur’an 72.1-15

Teachings of Rev. Sun Myung Moon

Because the archangel’s Fall led Adam and Eve to their ruin and the ruin of the human world, [others of] the angelic world have been working on God’s behalf, fighting against Satan. The good angels fight against the evil Satan [and his minions]. Whenever the side of the good angels wins a battle, there is a step forward. (109:18, October 26, 1980)

Good spirits are fighting their way to advance progress towards God’s original world… while evil spirits are struggling to block the way. The evil spirit world and evil physical world are in a constant communication. Good spirits are the spirits of people who were opposed and persecuted in the sinful world. They are religious believers. (134:10, January 1, 1985)

God and Satan fight over human beings, vying to claim them for their side. The spirits of people who have passed away add their forces to the struggle. Good spirits help good people, while evil spirits help evil people. In this way, evil people are pulled to the side of Satan, while the good people go to the side of God. The physical and the spiritual team up in this manner and cause all manner of conflict, although people are ignorant of it. (161:14, January 1, 1987)❖

They Are My People, and You Were Cruel to Them

Leviticus 15

Any man with an infected penis is unclean, 3 whether it is stopped up or keeps dripping. 4 Anything that he rests on or sits on is also unclean, 5-7 and if you touch either these or him, you must wash your clothes and take a bath, but you still remain unclean until evening.

8 If you are spit on by the man, you must wash your clothes and take a bath, but you still remain unclean until evening. 9-10 Any saddle or seat on which the man sits is unclean. And if you touch or carry either of these, you must wash your clothes and take a bath, but you still remain unclean until evening. 11 If the man touches you without first washing his hands, you must wash your clothes and take a bath, but you still remain unclean until evening. 12 Any clay pot that he touches must be destroyed, and any wooden bowl that he touches must be washed.

13 Seven days after the man gets well, he will be considered clean, if he washes his clothes and takes a bath in spring water. 14 On the eighth day he must bring either two doves or two pigeons to the front of my sacred tent and give them to a priest. 15 The priest will offer one of the birds as a sacrifice for sin and the other as a sacrifice to please me, then I will consider the man completely clean.

Richard: This passage indicates the root of the problem we are now facing with our nation and the election.
    Those who allow this fraud and crime of stealing the election have deadened their conscience through killing it, effectively, by justifying how it is ok to have sexual relationships without considering the welfare of the children that are present, substantially though the sperm and egg, but also in the spirits of those engaging in the sexual act.  
    The end result of this is infanticide, where you extend the effective murder of your conscience to the actual murder of the unborn child.  
    Within this murderous culture, the conscience is deadened.  The door is opened to a culture of crime.  The crime in this particular case is the attempted stealing of the election.

Obadiah

12 Why did you celebrate
when such a dreadful disaster
    struck your relatives?
Why were you so pleased
when everyone in Judah
    was suffering?
13 They are my people,
    and you were cruel to them.
You went through their towns,
sneering
and stealing
    whatever was left.
14 In their time of torment,
    you ambushed refugees
and handed them over
    to their attackers.

15 The day is coming
when I, the Lord,
    will judge the nations.
And, Edom, you will pay in full
    for what you have done.

Richard:  Stacey got this exact same Rheama just four days ago. Obadiah is a book that is just 2 pages long. The chance of this being a coincidence is zero.
    God is very unhappy with the attempt of Joe Biden and the Democrats to steal the election. That attempt will not succeed. There will be grave consequences for those who are perpetrating this fraud. Those perpetrating this fraud are showing gross disrespect to those who have cast legitimate ballots. This is a blatant attempt to disenfranchise the hundreds of thousands of people who have cast their votes for Donald J Trump, only to have fraudulent ballots appear after the fact to cancel their votes.

Angels

1. The Identity and Mission of Angels

Teachings of Rev. Sun Myung Moon

God created the angelic world prior to creating the physical universe. Then, with the help of the angels, God utilized the elements of creation to form human beings. (83:155, February 8, 1976)
Angels, like all beings, were created by God. God created them prior to any other creation. In the biblical account of the creation of heaven and earth, we find that God spoke in the plural: “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness.” (Gen. 1.26) This is not because God was referring to Himself as the Holy Trinity, as many theologians have interpreted the passage. Rather, He was speaking to the angels, whom He had created before human beings.
    God created angels to be His retainers, who would assist Him in creating and sustaining the universe. In the Bible we find many instances of angels working for the Will of God. Angels conveyed to Abraham important words of God’s blessing (Gen. 18.10); an angel heralded the conception of Christ (Matt. 1.20); an angel unchained Peter and led him out of prison and into the city. (Acts 12.7-10) The angel who escorts John in the Book of Revelation calls himself “a servant” (Rev. 22.9), and in Hebrews angels are referred to as “ministering spirits.” (Heb. 1.14) The Bible often portrays angels honoring and praising God. (Rev. 5.11-12, 7.11-12)
    Let us investigate the relationship between human beings and angels from the perspective of the Principle of Creation. Because God created us as His children and gave us dominion over all creation (Gen. 1.28), we are meant to rule over the angels as well. It is written in the Bible that we have the authority to judge the angels. (1 Cor. 6.3) Many who communicate with the spirit world have witnessed hosts of angels escorting the saints in Paradise. These observations illustrate the fact that angels have the mission to minister to human beings. (Exposition of the Divine Principle, Fall 2.2.1)
 
In front of God, the angels were supposed to fulfill the duties of servants and serve as a protective fence for Adam and Eve. They were supposed to create a glorious environment for them to live eternally in God’s Kingdom. Then they would have lived happily with Adam and Eve in God’s love. In short, God created the angels and archangels for the sake of Adam and Eve. God, in His parental love for Adam and Eve, created the angels for their sake. (15:238, October 17, 1965)
 
Good spirits who passed away after living on Earth belong to the realm of angels in terms of their mission. Why? God created angels before creating Adam. Therefore, before the perfection of [the new] Adam on earth, good people are assigned the role of angels by a certain procedure. (76:324, March 15, 1975)
 
Men are in the position of an archangel—not the archangel who caused the Fall but a restored arch-angel.28 The angels in the Garden of Eden were given the mission to protect and nurture Adam and Eve to fulfill the ideal of God’s family, and assist them to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. However, they failed to fulfill their mission, and instead they became gangsters, following the king of hell. (281:313, March 9, 1997)
 
For this reason, the angels should come down to the earth and work hard, sacrificing themselves for the citizens of the Kingdom to be established by the coming Messiah. Through shedding sweat in this way, they can be restored. The spirit world is the world of angels, and the physical world is Adam’s world. Since both worlds have fallen under the power of the Devil, angels in the spirit world and “substantial” angels in the physical world should work for their liberation. Liberation is not possible only through the activities of angels in the spirit world. We need to create a substantial world of [people fulfilling the mission of] angels. (62:247, September 25, 1972)

For He Will Give His Angels Charge Over You

Cheon Seong Gyeong 451

What are you living for? There will be
some who say they live to eat and there
will be some who say they live to work
or they live without a purpose. What do
human beings live for? If you say you
live for the sake of love, how great this
answer is! Human beings are born as
the fruit of love, live in love, and return
to the eternal love of God’s bosom.
This is the original life of creation.
(Blessed Family -1064)

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1215

Who has been moving history until
now? Satan has. Therefore, we must be
separated from him. Unless we remove
Satan, there is no way God can enter. It
is not God’s territory. Since we are still
in the territory of Satan, unless we set
indemnity conditions in this fallen realm
and separate from Satan, unless we lay
the indemnity conditions to drive Satan
away, God’s domain will not expand and
the foundation for God’s activities can-
not be built. Therefore, we must be sep-
arated from Satan and drive him away
completely. (161-204, 1987.2.4)

Angels

Angels and spiritual benefactors are a feature of all religions. They may be recognized as gods, devas, kami, the spirits of animals and mountains (shamanism), or dignitaries like the Jade emperor (china) and the Buddhist bodhisattvas. in the latter group are the spirits of human beings who lived exemplary lives on earth and were then elevated to the status of deity and assigned the mission of angels. nevertheless, in the monotheistic faiths these benefactors, no matter how exalted, are regarded as subordinate to and servants of the one ultimate reality.
  In many traditions, these benevolent spirits dispense blessings to the human world and protect people from harm. angelic visitors communicate God’s instructions, as the angel Gabriel spoke to Muhammad and to the virgin Mary. thus angels take the role of “ministering spirits,” serving God and assisting human beings—God’s children.
    Angels have power, and hence they are often the objects of worship. yet within Judaism, Islam and Christianity are teachings that human beings are superior to angels. along this line, Father Moon teaches that the angels assisted God in every step of creation, up to his ultimate goal of creating human beings. God placed angels in the Garden of Eden to educate and assist Adam and Eve as they grew from childhood to mature adult-hood, when they were to become perfect and fulfill the ideal of creation. chief among them was the archangel Lucifer, who however became corrupt and caused his charges to fall. (see chapter 6: The Devil and His Activities)it still remains for human beings to judge the angels and regain their lost dignity.

1.The Identity and Mission of Angels

Who makes His angels spirits; His ministers a
flaming fire.
    Psalm 104.4

He created man of clay like the potters,
and the Jinn did He create of smokeless fire. 24
    Qur’an 55.14-15

Are they [the angels] not all ministering spirits
sent forth to serve, for the sake of those who are
to obtain salvation?
    Hebrews 1.14

The angels celebrate the praises of their Lord,
and pray for forgiveness for all beings on earth.
    Qur’an 42.5

Those who have said, “Our Lord is God,” then have
gone straight, upon them the angels descend, say-
ing, “Fear not, neither sorrow; rejoice in Paradise
that you were promised. We are your friends in
the present life and in the world to come; therein
you shall have all that your souls desire.”
    Qur’an 41.30-31

For He will give His angels charge over you,
to guard you in all your ways.
On their hands they will bear you up,
lest you dash your foot against a stone.
    Psalm 91.10-11

I [the Bodhisattva Samantabhadra] relieve the
distress of the beings of all evil realms, and equally
bestow happiness on them. I continue to do so
through the lapse of boundless kalpas, and in the
extent of the ten quarters of the universe. The
benefits of all are eternal, and omnipresent. 25
    Gandavyuha Sutra 39 (Buddhism)

Anything evil refrain from doing; all good deeds
do! So you will be released forever from the
influence of evil stars, and always be encom-
passed by good guardian angels.
    Tract of the Quiet Way (Taoism)

When a man walks on the highway, a company
of angels goes before him, proclaiming, “Make
way for the image of the Holy One!”
    Midrash on Psalm 17.8 (Judaism)

It [the Qur’an] is naught but an inspiration
    that is inspired,
which one of mighty powers [Gabriel] has
    taught him,
one vigorous; and he grew clear to view
when he was on the uppermost horizon.
Then he drew near and came down
till he was two bows’ length away or even nearer,
and he revealed unto His slave that which He
revealed. 
    Qur’an 53.4-10

The angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of
Galilee named Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed
of a man whose name was Joseph, of the house
of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary. And
he came to her and said, “Hail, O favored one,
the Lord is with you!” But she was greatly trou-
bled at the saying, and considered in her mind
what sort of greeting this might be. And the
angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for
you have found favor with God. And behold,
you will conceive in your womb and bear a son,
and you shall call his name Jesus.
    Luke 1.26-31

Lord Scripture Glory says, “For seventeen gen-
erations I have been incarnated as a high man-
darin, and I have never oppressed my people
nor maltreated my subordinates. I have helped
them in misfortune; I have rescued them from
poverty; I have taken compassion on their
orphans; I have forgiven their transgressions; I
have extensively practiced secret virtue which
is attuned to Heaven above. If you are able to
keep your hearts as I have kept mine, Heaven
will surely bestow upon you blessings.”

Acts 2

On the day of Pentecost all the Lord’s followers were together in one place. 2 Suddenly there was a noise from heaven like the sound of a mighty wind! It filled the house where they were meeting. 3 Then they saw what looked like fiery tongues moving in all directions, and a tongue came and settled on each person there. 4 The Holy Spirit took control of everyone, and they began speaking whatever languages the Spirit let them speak.

Proverbs 15

29 The Lord never even hears
    the prayers of the wicked,
    but he answers the prayers
    of all who obey him.
30 A friendly smile
    makes you happy,
    and good news
    makes you feel strong.
31 Healthy correction is good,
    and if you accept it,
    you will be wise.
32 You hurt only yourself
    by rejecting instruction,
    but it makes good sense
    to accept it.
33 Showing respect to the Lord
    will make you wise,
    and being humble
    will bring honor to you.

Hell

3. Rescuing Souls from Hell

Teachings of Rev. Sun Myung Moon

God is a God of love. When God looks down from His throne and sees spirits in hell crying out to Him in their misery, “Please, God, save me!” what would He say? Would He say, “You deserve a lot worse”? Or does He have mercy on them? Surely, God will do everything possible to liberate hell. (98:116, May 7, 1978)
 
Only through love can we transform hell into heaven. We can renovate hell only if we possess love. (90:314, January 15, 1977)
 
Since people do not live longer than 100 years, out of the five billion people on earth, fifty million go to the spirit world each year—even to hell. What shall we do about this? God wants to harvest to His side what Satan has sown, but how many of them have gone to hell during the past forty years?
Perhaps two billion? This is serious. When I go to the spirit world, they may say, “Reverend Moon, when you were alive on earth, why didn’t you fulfill your responsibility for us?” How am I supposed to reply to them? At least I should determine in my heart to take responsibility to save them, if not now, then through my followers who come after me. (205:356, October 2, 1990)
 

From Judas Iscariot and Emperor Nero down to today’s communist party,
countless people have betrayed Heaven.
Although we are destined for victory in relating with the entire cosmos,
at this time for the complete dissolution of grief,
we recognize that when the divine judgment befalls them
we cannot just sweep them up and throw them away.
Mayest Thou, through Thy name, and with the solemn authority of Thy universal victory,
enable us to form relationships even with them, as is also our destiny…
Although they were hated enemies who pierced Thy heart with nails,
who killed Thy son Jesus, and killed many of Thy beloved people,
let this be a place where we can love them.
Open the gates of heaven and earth and reach out to them with Thy heart,
Thy mind of magnanimous love.
We know that by liberating them, the doors of hell will be opened,
and the way will gradually be paved to abolish hell. (78:18-19, May 1, 1975)
