Luke 7

7 After Jesus had finished teaching the people, he went to Capernaum. ²In that town an army officer’s servant was sick and about to die. The officer liked this servant very much. ³And when he heard about Jesus, he sent some Jewish leaders to ask him to come and heal the servant.

⁴The leaders went to Jesus and begged him to do something. They said, “This man deserves your help! ⁵He loves our nation and even built us a meeting place.” ⁶So Jesus went with them.

When Jesus wasn’t far from the house, the officer sent some friends to tell him, “Lord, don’t go to any trouble for me! I am not good enough for you to come into my house. ⁷And I am certainly not worthy to come to you. Just say the word, and my servant will get well. ⁸I have officers who give orders to me, and I have soldiers who take orders from me. I can say to one of them, ‘Go!’ and he goes. I can say to another, ‘Come!’ and he comes. I can say to my servant, ‘Do this!’ and he will do it.”

⁹When Jesus heard this, he was so surprised that he turned and said to the crowd following him, “In all of Israel I’ve never found anyone with this much faith!”

¹⁰The officer’s friends returned and found the servant well.

Richard: We need faith like this army officer. We must know assuredly that God’s Will will be done as we have faith in the Will.

Proverbs 4

Keep looking straight ahead,
    without turning aside.
²⁶Know where you are headed,
    and you will stay
    on solid ground.
²⁷Don’t make a mistake by turning
    to the right or the left.

God’s Heart Towards Humanity

CSG 1998

Thus, the Kingdom of Heaven on
earth would be built, and at the same
time we would become united with
God. We need God to come down to the
earth. We need to attend Him as the sub-
ject figure of the Kingdom of Heaven,
and thus establish one unified Kingdom
of Heaven on earth and in spirit world.
You need to understand that this is the
mission to be fulfilled by Unificationists.
On such a foundation, we would final-
ly become one with the Parent and be
able to live peacefully in the Kingdom
of Heaven. (79-83, 1975.6.1)

Isaiah 66

²⁴My people will go out and look at the dead bodies of those who turned against me. The worms there never die, the fire never stops burning, and the sight of those bodies will be disgusting to everyone.

I am in a position to retake these
nations of Korea and Japan centering on
the Adam nation and Eve nation. With
the arrival of the age of restoration, they
must be restored centering on Eve. That
is why the Eve nation, Japan, holds all the
economic power. Consequently, Ameri-
ca needs Japan, China needs Japan, and
Korea needs Japan as well. In the realm
of competition, these nations are at war
with each other, vying to be the first to
attract Japan. I know about this. That is
why I brought them into exchange mar-
riages and completely tied Korea and
Japan together. America, China, and the
Soviet Union did not oppose this union.
(201-232, 1990.4.22)

CSG 741

The spirit world must be mobilized.
How can heaven be formed without
mobilizing the spirit world? It cannot.
Heaven is supposed to begin from the
True Parents, not the fallen descendants
who have existed until now. Just as the
angelic world helped when Adam was
created, the spirit world should return to
earth and help in the re-creation. With-
out doing so, it is not possible to build
heaven on earth. Is that not the Princi-
ple? Is this not the Principle of Resurrec-
tion? It will be recognized as true when
it appears as real and unchanging. (162-
114, 1987.3.30)

Fulfill the Mission that Jesus Calls You To

1 Chronicles 6

¹⁶Levi’s three sons had sons of their own. ¹⁷Gershon was the father of Libni and Shimei. ¹⁸Kohath was the father of Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel. ¹⁹Merari was the father of Mahli and Mushi. These descendants of Levi each became leaders of their own clans.

Proverbs 6

My child, suppose you agree
to pay the debt of someone,
    who cannot repay a loan.
²Then you are trapped
    by your own words,
³    and you are now in the power
    of someone else.
Here is what you should do:
    Go and beg for permission
    to call off the agreement.
⁴Do this before you fall asleep
    or even get sleepy.
⁵Save yourself, just as a deer
or a bird
    tries to escape
    from a hunter.

Richard: Going into debt is not a good idea, either for an individual or a family or nation. The total United States national debut is $20,000,000,000,000 (20 trillion dollars.) Every child wen born now owes more that $300,000 in national debt. This is not the way to build a prosperous future for our children.

God Determines the One Standard

CSG 1566

There are eight stages in indemnity,
namely on the levels of the individual,
family, tribe, people, nation, world, cos-
mos and God’s heart. These in turn lead
to restoration in those same eight stag-
es. This means that, through the verti-
cal and horizontal courses of indem-
nity centered on love, everything can
safely proceed in any direction. Once
this connection with love is made, the
sphere that is created is possessed by
the domain of love. When this happens,
nothing on earth can remain Satan’s
possession and he will be banished at
once. It will be the end for him. (199-188,
1990.2.16)

CSG 1341-1342

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 ances-
tors 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 thir-
ty-six twice. Thus, the 72 Couples repre-
senting the children of the 36 Couples
Book 9 • Blessed Family 1342
comprise 36 Abel and 36 Cain couples.
They are the representative couples cho-
sen to restore through indemnity that
which the historical ancestors failed to
accomplish: the complete unity of Abel
and Cain. (84-144, 1976.2.22)
