    The individual perfection we speak of today is not the absolute and complete perfection of the individual. It is conditional. You must understand that this perfection is a conditional perfection in the process of restoration. That is why, though they stand in the position of parents, they do not truly know about God’s realm of heart. They have not experienced the great power of loving each other so much that the husband cannot give up his wife and the wife cannot give up her husband even in exchange for the universe. The love they share is so strong that it can hold heaven and earth together.
    That is why those families who have received the Blessing must bear in mind that until they cross over from this fallen realm, they are only in the realm of conditional perfection. They are not in the realm of the perfected Kingdom of Heaven. Since they are only living in that conditional realm of perfection, once they pass on to the spirit world, they need to go through certain formalities. Only after they go through due formalities and reach complete perfection can they receive their passports and enter the Kingdom of Heaven. (100-144, 1978.10.9)

Now, through the Sa-Sa Jeol (4.4. Day) declaration, which represents the number four, the southern hemisphere can be connected to the northern hemisphere and the heart of the Parents to the oceans. Although the great judgment of Noah’s time took place on the sea, based on the sea that did not face judgment and the principle of giving and receiving by all created beings, then all national messiahs and Blessed Families were called to gather here in Jardim in order to symbolize the coming together of all creation to the place of liberation. I have disclosed to all those who are here that, in the form of the global messiah, national messiahs, tribal and family messiahs, they should return following the Parents.
Richard:  Victory is ours, as Blessed families, if we claim it.  First we have to understand what a Blessed family is, and we have to practice true love and absolute sexual ethics within our Blessed family and exemplify those values to our family and neighbors.
Join us on November 19th for the Unification Principle Study, which is a great place to begin your journey as a Blessed family.  Peaceful families build a peaceful world.

True Family; Gateway to Heaven
Chapter Four

The Love of Man and Woman
in the Original Creation

Section 5. Men and Women Harmonize in Love

Man symbolizes heaven and woman, earth. The two must unite and
realize harmony. Men and women are different. Men’s muscles are
rugged and women’s are smooth. Men have beards while women do
not. Their voices are also different. If we compare men and women,
we see their contrasting features fit together well. Harmony unfolds
between them. When we look at the physical structure of human
beings, their left and right sides form a correlative pair. These two
halves are bound tightly together.

Ladies and gentlemen, do you like only high things or only low
things? You like things that create harmony. Judging from the line
formed by the horizon, fish live below and mammals, birds, and
other creatures live above. Women menstruate once a month, like
tidal variations based on the moon. Breathing is similar. A man
and a woman establish a line of balance and create harmony.
People like Disneyland, with its rides that go up and down,
because Disneyland duplicates the motions of the universe.

Which do you think will be more pleasing, a man harmonizing
with another man or a man harmonizing with a woman? A man
harmonizing with a woman is better because that reflects the
harmony of the universe. We should live in step with the beat of
the universe, the universe that promotes harmony through the
harmony of yin and yang. (Blessed Family – 344)

When man and woman create harmony, they initiate circular
movement. When man and woman become one body through
love and bear the fruits of love, God comes down and they go up
and they meet in the middle. God becomes the center of this
sphere, and spherical movement begins. The center of the sphere
is the place where harmony of love is realized. It is the place where
life emerges and moves, and it is the starting point of human
equality and communal philosophy. This is so because the power
of love is there. Thus, the force that embraces all interactions of
the universe is love. (Blessed Family – 344)

For human beings love is eternal. It is one and never divided. Once
a man and a woman are joined in love they are to live together for a
lifetime and then eternally even after death. They are two bodies
that become one body by uniting and revolving together. When the
two bodies become one, they revolve as God does and form a four-
position foundation of love, the expression of the ideal world of
love. Only true love dwells there and false love cannot invade. When
man and woman become blessed by God and achieve perfection,
God comes to them freely. When they form a four-position
foundation of love, they will come to love each other’s mind
through each other’s body, and when they come to love the mind
their body will follow. (Blessed Family – 344)

#125-Urban Life Training as a Solution to Family Breakdown

Cheon Seong Gyeong 2205

    What God had hoped from His children, Adam and Eve, was to see them become filial children, patriots, saints, and a divine son and daughter when they grew up. God hopes that you will do the same, but have you ever thought that you must become a filial child in your family, a patriot in your nation, a saint in the world, or a divine child in heaven and earth?
    Viewed historically, all the saints and great religious leaders have taught people to become filial children, patriots, saints, and divine children. Religions that do not teach this will not endure for long. In any case, that is the predestined course that humankind is following.
    Destiny is to do with such things as the relationship between the parents and the children. You cannot change that destiny. There are some things in your fortune that you can change, but you cannot change those aspects of destiny.
    If you do not understand these things, you will not be able to fulfill the role of true parents in your families. As true parents, you should teach your children how to become filial children, patriots, saints, and divine sons and daughters. You have to teach them to fulfill all these with you and beyond that in front of God. (287-23, 1997.8.10)

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1264

Who are true parents? If Adam and Eve had not fallen, God would have bestowed His vertical love on them, and Adam and Eve would have become the body of God. They would have represented the body of God. God would have been like the bones, and Adam and Eve like the flesh. God can have a mind and body through Adam and Eve. He would have become the internal parent in the internal position, and Adam and Eve would have become the external parents in the external position. The internal and external parents must become one through love; at that place, we come to have external parents and attend the internal parents in heart. With the union of love between God and Adam and Eve, then true parents – the perfected man and woman – would emerge. There can be no perfected human beings if there is no union through love.

    In order to become heavenly royalty, you must first become filial children, patriots, saints and divine sons and daughters. The training ground for this is the family. The ideal Kingdom of Heaven comes about when the perfected family expands. The family is always the center. The problem boils down to two people: a man and a woman. When an ideal man and an ideal woman come together as husband and wife, and form a family, then everything is completed. The ideal family expands to become a nation and world.        
    Through serving in the family and respecting your parents, you become children of filial piety. In the same way, when you attend and live for the king of your nation, you become patriots, and if you live for all humankind, you become saints. So you should realize how much the dimension of a holy child differs from yours. In order for you to change, you must make revolutionary changes in yourselves and ascend through numerous levels. (293-211, 1998.5.26) Emphasis mine.

Cheon Seon Gyeong 1535

At the time of creation, God stood in the position of having exercised absolute faith, love, and obedience, but because human beings failed to form families that could stand as object partners to Him, they consequently fell into hell. We are now living in the time when everything that was lost in Adam’s family can be restored worldwide through absolute faith, love and obedience on the unified foundation of True Parents’ realm of victory. Unification Church members must therefore inherit and practice absolute faith, love and obedience centering on the True Parents. True Parents inherited these absolute traditions from God, and so you should inherit these traditions in turn. Do you understand? Then God’s blessing will be with you. (1996.11.3)  Emphasis mine.

Wives often Lie to their Husbands, and Husbands to their Wives

#112-Richard Urban-To break the generational cycle of outside of wedlock birth, we need a revolution of abstinence-centered education.

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1913

I have been speaking about the hobby business. The entire world today is a world of science, in which through the best technology, people are moving the world. For this reason, people take a serious view of the production process, calling it the hobby industry, whereas I call it the hobby life. Do you understand? There are all kinds of hobbies – hobbies for your eyes, for your nose, for your mouth, for your ears, for your sense of touch, for your body, for your mind, for your love, and so on… (278-95, 1996.5.1)

Cheon Seong Gyeong 989

Section 1. Living in Attendance of God
1.1. God and human beings relate as parent and child

Among all bonds of relationships, the standard is the parent-child relationship established between God and human beings. The heart coming from this bond cannot be undermined by the authority of any being and is eternal, unchanging, and unique. The authority of this heart is also absolute. For this reason, when you come forth with this authority, all existing beings will bow their heads before you. When you move with the authority of that heart, the entire universe must follow you. This is the ironclad rule of the universe. (7-105, 1959.7.26)

THE BASIC FORM OF LIFE

Ethics of Married Life

3. The Good and the Bad in Husbands and Wives 

Teachings of Rev. Sun Myung Moon

What is the problem with families today? Isn’t it that both the husband and wife are insisting, “Live for my sake” and “You must love only me”? Such a selfish attitude is the characteristic of Satan, so God will leave such a family. Once Satan enters a family, it breaks down. The parents raise the children, insisting, “You must live for us.” The children tell their parents, “Father, mother, live for me.” They each want the other to live for their sake, so the family breaks apart. (69:87, October 20, 1973)

Wives often lie to their husbands, and husbands to their wives, in order to hide things from each other. Each tries to possess a realm over which they have sole control. If your family is like this, you are still connected with Satan’s world. (396:257, November 10, 2002) Continue reading “Wives often Lie to their Husbands, and Husbands to their Wives”

People Would Still Have Responsibility

Cheon Seong Gyeong 2135

    Consequently, we cannot reject the idea of becoming true children, spouses, and parents. Doing so would be to violate a fundamental principle of the universe, thus destroying our own existence. Hence, each of us must participate in building a true family consisting of true parents, spouses, and children, which is the model for the ideal existence.
    People need to fully experience true parental love, true conjugal love, and true filial love in their families. Money, knowledge, power, or physical force cannot perfect such human relationships; only God’s true love, which balances everything, can do this.

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1113

Humankind must participate in the great undertaking of God’s creation. Even if human beings had not fallen, there would still have been such a responsibility. The human portion of responsibility was not established due to the Fall. Whether the Fall occurred or not, people would still have responsibility. Even if ninety-five percent of God’s ideal of creation, through which we can perfect ourselves as human beings, was prepared, we would still have to fulfill our five percent portion of responsibility. God does not make an individual perfect. We must additionally fulfill our own portion of responsibility to achieve perfection. This would hold true even if humankind had not fallen. (115-65, 1981.11.4)

A good wife who can find?
She is far more precious than jewels.
The heart of her husband trusts in her,
and he will have no lack of gain.
She does him good, and not harm,
all the days of her life. Continue reading “People Would Still Have Responsibility”
