Everything Satan Has Will Be Destroyed and Brought to Ruin

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1145

What was it about the Fall that God could do nothing about it; what was it that made Him so powerless? Why is the Fall so hard to overcome? What is this about a fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil? If Adam and Eve ate a fruit, then why did they cover their sexual parts? They defiled their blood. The fact that they defiled their blood means that they defiled their life. The fact that they defiled the life means that they defiled love. Human beings, who were supposed to become the nervous system within the great principle of heaven and earth, fell while in their youth. Who violated the woman? The archangel, the servant, violated God’s daughter, Eve, who in the future was supposed to become God’s queen and His external incarnation. The lineage was changed. You may be hearing this for the first time. (200-50, 1990.2.23)

    The family is the basic unit in building God’s Kingdom. Once you enter God’s Kingdom, you would never want to leave, because “the One” with whom you want to meet tens and even hundreds of times dwells there. If all humankind had a common desire to enter there, and wanted to meet and live with Him, the world could be unified right away.
    The Unification Church is heading towards that destination. However, that cannot be established all at once. First the foundation of the individual must be laid, followed by the foundation of the family, expanded into the tribe, nation, and world. (12-180, 1963.4.1)

Section 6. The Meaning of the Words True Parents

6.4. The words True Parents are fearsome words

    What term expresses the most fearsome teaching of the Unification Church? It is the term True Parents. These are words feared by both God and Satan. Since we human beings are in the fallen domain, those who are following the True Parents are judged by their words.
    It would be better if they had not appeared, but since they are here, the judgment has to be made and God listens to them. Why then does Satan fear the words True Parents? It is because when people believe and follow these words, everything Satan has will be destroyed and brought to ruin. These are words he intensely fears. Satan always tries to block the way of the True Parents and longs to see their corruption and downfall. So the question is how much you will believe and follow in going this way.
     If you are standing in such a cutting-edge position, you should take each step and do each deed with discernment while gaining strong inspiration from more than a thousand years’ worth of devoted effort. (65-276, 1973.1.1)

    I am well aware of the fearsome nature of the name True Parents. I have not followed my path in life in order to find tranquility, but have been fighting until now in order to complete the mission connected with Your will. Looking back, there have been many incidents and many occasions when I have been unfairly treated. Yet, since I, as a shameful person, know that these do not compare with Your hidden circumstances and Your feeling of being treated unfairly, I cannot kneel down and show You my tears. Please understand my heart that feels such things and open the doors of the heavenly world and earthly world as of today! (134-112, 1985.2.25)

    Who are True Parents? The words True Parents are not simple words. They are the most fearsome words. You do not know how fearsome they are. This one term, True Parents, controls the direction of history. Until now, untold numbers of patriots have walked the path of sacrifice in order to find and establish these words. The name that is established with hope through continuous bloody struggles and desperate cries is the holy name of True Parents.
    When True Parents come, true children should also come. Have you become true children? Think about this. That which is true does not change in the past, in the present, or in the future. (33-109, 1970.8.9)

The Fall Meant Establishing a Bond of Love Centered on Satan

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1251

The purpose of marriage lies in perfecting the love of man and woman and uniting their worlds of the mind into one. Marriage is the proclamation, the proof of that. If the mind and love are perfected through married life, we can safely say that the ideal of the family has been realized. So, if you achieve this before you pass away, you will definitely enter the Kingdom of Heaven. (97-276, 1978.3.26)

You should know that the concept of the Blessing did not begin with the Unification Church. Rather, it has been the hope of God in His innermost heart, something He has pursued and striven to fulfill throughout history since the time of creation and the Fall. To see this dream come true, God has been walking a path of suffering until this day, but the day of its fulfillment has not yet come. That is why the day that God’s hope is fulfilled will be the day of the liberation of the world, and the day His historical wish is fulfilled. Knowing this, you should understand why the Blessing is so significant. (30-164, 1970.3.22)

4.2. God abides by the law

    What kind of being is God? God is like the mind of the universe; the universe is like His body. However, the devil has infiltrated this body. Satan has usurped the powers of the heavens and thus controls the universe. Continue reading “The Fall Meant Establishing a Bond of Love Centered on Satan”

God and People Become One through Love

    Think about what would happen if all the edible products were produced in Alaska. Alaska is many times the size of Korea. It is several times bigger than California. California is one of the largest states in America; so Alaska is that vast! An unlimited supply of raw materials can be found there. The owner of that place is neither the Soviet Union nor America.
    Both countries show little interest in Alaska. They have created a mess with their own economic problems, political problems, and administrative problems, so they do not even think about the consumption of raw materials. In the future, the issue will be about who has a commanding position in relation to the raw materials. I am preparing for that day. (236-22, 1992.11.2)

Cheon Seong Gyeong

Where did heaven and hell begin? Where did they begin? In midair? Where? At the sexual organs. This must be serious. They have turned heaven and earth upside down. Can anyone deny that? There is no way to deny the logic of The Fall in Rev. Moon’s Divine Principle. Ask God. Examine everything. Not having received any answers from that, you would not be able to oppose what I have arranged in systematic order including theories and contents that you could never imagine even in your dreams.

God and the Work of Creation

Section 1. God’s Motivation for Creating Is Love
1.2. Realizing the ideal of creation through love

    Do you think someone who has tied himself to and tasted God’s original love will want to be separated from it? When a bee is sucking nectar from a flower and you pull on its abdomen, it will not stop sucking the nectar even if its abdomen is pulled off. What if you experienced the taste of such love? You might leave, but you would turn around and come back, trying to cling to it. (137-57, 1985.12.18)

The Principle of the Unification Church concludes that God’s love requires fulfilling the four-position foundation. Then, what does fulfilling the four-position foundation mean? Parental love should be expressed to and felt by the children. Centered on parental love, which lies at the center of the four-position foundation, the parents become one with the children, the man and woman become one in love, and finally they become one with God’s love. This is the four-position foundation. (Blessed Family – 302) Continue reading “God and People Become One through Love”

    What does it mean to say that the Last Days have come? It means that the day when the human race can find its original homeland has come closer. It means that the time is near when people who can live in the original homeland can establish their historic fatherland. Because of that, Jesus, who came with the ideal of founding something, was given the title of King of kings. That is rather strange isn’t it? Why was such a title given to him? This is not a lie; it is the truth. Without a motive, no result can come. If you investigate a result closely, you will absolutely find that there is a motive. However, that motive is something human beings cannot know. God is moving everything. (155-32, 1964.10.6)

Cheon Seong Gyeong 991

    God is not a fantasy or a conceptual God, nor is He an abstract God. With His leadership in our daily life, He is always with us as the master of our daily circumstances. He does not just receive attendance but is living together with us by sharing love. This sounds like a dream. (168-111, 1987.9.13)

    Without making a beginning point where God enters our mind, and where we human beings become completely one body with God, there is no way of liquidating the devil’s world. From this point of view, we can understand that this time is the age of attendance and the age of salvation by justification through attendance. We are saved through attendance. God is not a God who is way up in the sky far removed from us. We should attend God as the master in our daily life. (144-274, 1986.4.25)

Original Substance of the Divine Principle

The Human Fall

Satan caused great grief to God, our Father.  However, God must work His providence to make Satan submit voluntarily.
By leading a life of faith, we can conquer our innate tendencies to complain and blame others for our woes.  We can grow spiritually and give comfort to God.

True Freedom Always Brings Joy to God

Cheon Seong Gyeong 880

You must invest yourself and then forget. If among a hundred members there is someone who is wearing poorer clothes than your sons and daughters, you should not be able to sleep. You should want to give him clothes. That is the heart of God, the heart of a parent. What is the leading system of thought of the Unification Church? It is to have a parental heart, wear the clothes of a servant, shed sweat for earth, tears for humankind and blood for heaven. What is heaven? It is the world of love to which you bring your children. You receive love and say that you will give it to the entire universe. I love God. I know everything right through from the spirit world to the physical world. (296-120, 1998.11.3)

Cheon Seong Gyeong 628

Just as the love within the parent-child relationship is cherished in the physical world, if you live with such love on earth, you will attend God as your Parent and live your life in heaven as His child. (214-268, 1991.2.3)

Original Substance of the Divine Principle

The Human Fall

Freedom and desire allow us to serve God and build a good world.
God did not intervene in the Fall to maintain His absoluteness and the perfection of the Principle, so that He alone is the creator, and to give us humans the opportunity to govern over the creation by fulfilling our own responsibility.
