If you want to become Heaven’s loyal subject, you must take revenge upon God’s enemy. If you want to become a filial child, you cannot succeed as long as your parents’ enemies remain, so you must subjugate and replace the sinful dominion with God’s dominion. It is the same thing for a virtuous woman. Until the day you make the enemy account for his sins, if you are not prepared to go forth to fight at the risk of your eternal life, you will not be able to surmount the heartbreaking mountain of the Fall. It is only when you cross over this peak that for the first time God will be able to set His troubled mind at rest and say to you, “My loyal, filial, and virtuous child whom I have long awaited for six thousand years!” He will raise both hands to bless you. God cannot enjoy His Sabbath until such a standard of heart has been established. (9-122, 1960.4.24)

If you go to heaven, you would be able to freely come and go, even to hell. Would you rather become a person limited in the spirit world or a liberated person in the free heaven and earth? You have to consider the person next to you, thinking to yourself, “So, this person is from the tollgate of heaven. He is the gate keeper,” and allow yourself to be trained by him so that you can pass through the gates. You should think, “I need to pass those gates. I consider you to be the gatekeeper. I’m going to touch and melt your heart, so that you will guide me when I reach those gates.” (115-58, 1981.10.28)

4.6. Entering heaven as a family unit
The family is the model for forming a nation. The family represents the first stage. The nation starts from the family foundation. You should know this. Within the family, you find three stages: the grandfather and grandmother, the father and mother, and the children. These three stages of the family can be expanded in the process of forming the nation and world. Through the family, not only can you connect to this world but also to the spirit world. When you observe the world, you find a grandparent level, parent level, and child level. If you can expand all the things that are being practiced in the family to the world, you can easily fit in wherever you go.
