Forty years ago, I said that in forty years time, such and such time would occur. At the time, I was a king of beg- gars. I had no clothing, so I wore Korean traditional trousers made of double layers of fabric. In order to wear them carefully I dyed both the outer and inner sides blue separately. I had no jacket, so I wore green fatigues from the U.S. military, and sports shoes given to me by a Japanese person. I went around wearing clothes from three countries like that. Going around looking like that, I still said, “This is all for restoration through indemnity. In order to accomplish that I will walk around wearing rags from America, rags from Korea, and rags from Japan.” How wonderful that is! (164-61, 1987.5.3)

If you look at the eighth chapter in the book of Romans, it says, “….but we ourselves, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly, as we wait for adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies.” (Rom. 8:23) and “For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, ‘Abba, Father.’…” (Rom. 8:15) You can only become adopted children. The Christians are adopted children. Adopted children have a different lineage. If you look at the Gospel of John, Jesus said, “You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires.” He said, “father,” so does not that mean that humankind’s ancestor is the devil – that their lineage comes from him? Therefore, what is circumcision? It is the separation of good and evil. That is how it is. What kind of fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil are you talking about? (154-337, 1964.10.5)

1.4. Heart and heaven

    What kind of place is heaven? It is where we can take pride in what we prepared during our life on earth, and in our life of attendance. Then what kind of people enters heaven? Is heaven a place for those who simply believe in the Lord and expect to receive blessings or who act only for the sake of receiving blessing? No. Heaven is the destination for those who live preparing their hearts to attend God, as well as those who can leave behind a life of attendance and joyfully move on, even if they were to die while preparing. There is resurrection there. The details of life do not appear there. How we should live from now on is the important question we should reflect upon in our life of attendance.

Jesus Went to Paradise Instead of Heaven

If fish were constantly being caught, they would all disappear. That is why we need to breed and to raise fish. I am thinking of building a zoo with the animals from the Pantanal and the Amazon River Valley in South America. A city must appear in which insects are raised. Then whenever someone strikes a bell, the birds that want to eat the insects will come to eat. A city must appear in which insects can be raised to feed the birds. The birds are dying because there are no insects. Towns must appear in which insects, birds, and animals are raised. (292-24, 1998.3.27)

Restoration has taken six thousand biblical years because of the complications involving lineage; otherwise, the almighty God would have restored everything in a day. People contracted a chronic disease that affected their lineage, so if God had tried to remove this disease at once, they would have died. That is why it took Him six thousand years. Can you say Adam and Eve fell by eating a fruit? If it were true, how simple things would be! (155-295, 1965.11.1)

1.3. Jesus and paradise

    Christians say, “Believe in Jesus and you will go to heaven,” but who will go there? Will it be individuals by themselves? Until now, there was no religion that taught about going to heaven together with one’s mother, father, and family. The religions that have existed until now gave priority to individual salvation. Yet a religion of a family’s entry into heaven must emerge. Only when the concept of family salvation emerges can the doors of heaven be opened. The religions that have existed in the past were religions of individual salvation; they could be likened to like someone rope climbing alone. Thus, the religious world emphasized a life of celibacy. Having a family was akin to having enemies. Jesus said that one’s family members were in this sense one’s enemies. Continue reading “Jesus Went to Paradise Instead of Heaven”

Can One Go to Heaven Simply by Believing in a Doctrine?

When God created the world, there was joy. After creating it He said that it was good. It means there was joy. What is joy? It is something you feel when you have achieved a certain purpose. Since all things God created contain His consciousness of purpose, He felt joy with them. Then, what kind of world is the world of restoration? In a nutshell, it is a world populated by people who have a three-dimensional connection of heart through which they can sing and praise God even when looking at any individual masterpiece of the creation. This is where God sees the value of personality. The old story about Saint Francis preaching to animals and birds is not a lie. It is a dream-like story, but is in fact true. (9-166, 1960.5.8)

You will be warmly welcomed into the kingdom within the realm of heart of the royal family; there are no steep paths or walls there. It is like an open plain. Everyone will welcome you. It connects with the world of perpetual love. You will stand as the owner of that place. Your clan will become like that. You will be registered and enter the Kingdom of Heaven by carrying the value of the spiritual realm where all your restored tribe is gathered. Aren’t you going to register? As the Tribal Leader of completed liberation, as the Messiah, and as the Parent, I am dragging you in, so that you can be registered anew and enter the Kingdom of Heaven. (218-358, 1991.8.22)

1.2. Christianity and heaven

    Even if people attend church for one hundred years, if they still have a self-centered mind they will never get to heaven. They cannot receive salvation.
    We need to know what kind of religion is a true religion, what kind of person is a true person, and what kind of nation is a true nation. (78-117, 1975.5.6) Continue reading “Can One Go to Heaven Simply by Believing in a Doctrine?”

Men tire of women and women tire of men, so they go around daily, hungry for love and always lonely; they will all become homosexuals and lesbians and end up in the trash can. They smoke opium and all fall into the straits of self-destruction. Who will take responsibility for this? Will the State Department or the Pentagon be responsible? Will the nation’s president take responsibility? All of us should take responsibility. (207- 111, 1990.11.1)

Richard: And a great way to take responsibility is to teach youth and young adults the importance of abstinence before marriage. That is the mission of Urban Life Training.

In order for our lineage to be identical to God’s lineage we must follow the realm of God’s heart. Why? Because our root and trunk are different. Therefore, our root and our shoots must be the same. In trying to achieve this we will certainly face the tremendous problem of the change of lineage. You cannot tackle this problem on your own. You need True Parents. (172-55, 1988.1.7)

Richard: The Blessing addresses the need to change one’s lineage.

1.1. The location of the Kingdom of Heaven

    According to the Bible, the Kingdom of Heaven is in our heart. It is not at the end of the world, but in our heart. In what sort of abode does the heart dwell? It does not dwell in a place that harbors all the elements of death, but rather one that can overcome them and disseminate life. Continue reading “The Kingdom of Heaven Starts in Our Heart”

By receiving the Blessing you can be treated as regular Unification Church members and citizens of the heavenly nation. We thus come to the conclusion that Satan will be automatically separated based on that logical standard. God’s love is higher than Satan’s, and you have stood as men and women blessed on that foundation of a principled love. You are therefore above rather than below that standard for being accused by Satan; hence he cannot accuse you. It is because the True Parents have established the original standard for the lineage through their bloodline. Therefore, if you are within that realm of lineage, Satan will never appear. Thus, you will have completely crossed over to the realm of separation from him. (172-66, 1988.1.7)

Richard: Learn about receiving the Blessing.

    In order to unite this world, you have to enter the spirit world and make unity there first. How are you going to bring unification? You would not be welcomed. If you go to the spirit world and say, “The way of the heavenly principle should be revealed in this way,” Satan and God would understand but they would not give an answer.
