There are No Races or Class Distinctions in Heaven

Cheon Seong Gyeong 667

The condition enabling you to go to heaven is to love God more than your own children. You must love the Lord more than your own spouse. You must love the Holy Spirit more than yourself. That’s the oneness of the Trinity. (10-99, 1960.7.17)

    What is the Blessing? It is the securing of families. Centering on my family, the 3, 36, 72, and 124 Couples were blessed, and through these Blessings, the global indemnity condition could be fulfilled. Then the issue of the 430 Couples arises. Although the 124 Couples were established to represent the global standard of the Blessing, there are still many Koreans who do not believe in religion and so do not lead religious lives. Isn’t that so? God’s providence must take account of all existing religions, and indemnity conditions are necessary for their sakes. But what would happen to nonbelievers? They cannot just be cut off completely and cast away.
    Ultimately, the many races and clans must be equally engrafted to the realm of mainstream thought through religions. Although the way leading to the world has been paved and the gates through which religious people can pass have been opened, ordinary people had been excluded; they could not be admitted. Thus, the many ordinary tribes in Korea must be engrafted. That was the reason behind the establishment of the 430 Couples: they represent the 4,300 years of Korean history. (110-123, 1980.11.10)

Richard:  For me, this means that even if people do not understand the truth and receive salvation the way you would like them to, none the less, you still need to make effort to help them.  All of God’s people have this ministry and mission.

Heavenly Laws are Already Set

Cheon Seong Gyeong 629

Love determines the overall order
and each person’s position. So you can-
not enter the heavenly kingdom without
becoming God’s sons and daughters.
In order to connect with God’s love,
you have to get onto the vertical line.
What does the scripture about loving
the Lord your God with all your heart
and with all your soul and with all
your mind mean? The center of every-
thing is love. So, when you do nothing
but concentrate all your functions and
consciousness on loving the Lord your
God, you will go straight up to the verti-
cal realm taking the elevator. It is a won-
drous world. (208-141, 1990.11.17)

The answer to the questions, “Why
does God need human beings?” and
“Why does He need human beings in
realizing His ideal?” is: God needs human
beings to perfect His love. What is God’s
love? We can say that God’s love involves
human beings liking each other eternal-
ly, but more importantly, it involves God
liking human beings eternally. In this
way, human beings are God’s eternal
objects of love. From the day God cre-
ated Adam and Eve, God desired to love
Adam and Eve as the object partners
whom He would look at over and over
again, and would wish to look at forev-
er, to be with over and over again, and
to live with over and over again. Hav-
ing such object partners is God’s ideal
of creation. (Blessed Family – 302)

2.3. Formation of the tribes and
genealogy of the heavenly nation
Once we have restored the nation, all
of you must be registered. Do you know
what the registration is? It is the drawing
up of the tribal register. In the future,
when being registered into the nation
centering on the Unification Church,
the tribal register must be drawn up. In
drawing up the genealogy, everything
you own must be returned to God. Be
they many or few, everything from your
life, everything that represents the life
you have led, must be offered to the
nation.
Do you know why the tax rate is so
high these days? It is because they are
taking in everything. They are taking
as much as 98 %. The reason for this is
that the time is coming when you will
need to offer everything to God’s nation.
That is how the whole world is at pres-
ent. They are unwittingly following this
trend. Once this comes to pass, and the
world becomes one by inheriting the tra-
dition of receiving the Blessing, every-
thing in the world must be returned to
God. (101-289, 1978.11.7) Continue reading “Heavenly Laws are Already Set”
