THE TRUTHFUL FAMILY
IS THE HOMELAND
OF ALL PERFECTIONS

Translator - Sang Kil Han
The topic of Father's sermon is Cham Tae Kajong: The Truthful
Family is the Homeland of All Perfections. Do you understand the
meaning of this? It means that without the family, everything remains
imperfect and incomplete. In America there are many philosophies. Many
people live alone and are incomplete. We even find the extreme of a man
living with another man as his spouse, and women likewise. They do this
because they do not know how man originally was created to live.
Therefore they are going against the way God wants us to go; they are
following the devil, Satan. Among those who are homosexual and lesbian,
most do not feel entirely happy with their way of life.
Education has merit when it fulfills its purpose to teach how to
hear, think, and act. Of these the most important is how to act, and of
all the actions, the most important are those associated with sexuality
and the sexual organs. For example, the eyes have a specific role; the
ears cannot play that role. Each organ fulfills a specific function:
hearing, speaking, smelling and so forth.
Man and woman are the same in every way but one, and that is their
sexual organs. When we examine the purpose of our physical organs, we
can conclude nothing other than that the purpose of the sexual organs
is to join man and woman together. If man and woman ever are to find
unification, this is the way. This is truth. Should this unification be
something temporary or eternal? It should be unique, unchanging,
eternal, divine and absolute. It should possess all these qualities.
We are talking about the very power of love. Love brings
unification. All men desire to exist at the highest level, reaching
the highest standard, and to remain at that level forever. They pursue
this absolute standard their whole life. But without the love which
brings unification, everything they achieve will crumble down. Perhaps
humankind is not the best example. In the mineral world we see perfect
eternal harmony. This is true as well in the plant world. Man and woman
should be like this. Everything, even the insects, was created
according to the pair system. Are you like that? [Yes.]
Man and woman are reciprocal partners. If man represents east then
the woman would represent west, or if the man stands in the north then
the woman covers the south. When they unite, they do so at the
connection of a perfectly vertical axis and a completely horizontal
axis. Before uniting horizontally they must establish the vertical
axis. Then they can become one. In doing so, each achieve their perfect
position. What man absolutely needs is a woman. A woman needs, more
than anything, her spouse, a man. There is no other substitute, no
comparable treasure. Why? It is because man and woman are completed by
becoming one.
When there are high and low barometric pressure areas, one flows
into the other. Likewise, a husband feels, "Since I need her
absolutely, I will give everything to her and become zero." If
both sides strongly feel this, will there be separation, or greater and
greater unity? [Unity.] What is inside will come out, the top will go
to the bottom and the two entities will become indistinguishably one.
That one entity will be round, like a snowball. The two will move round
and round. Each will be the nucleus of the other. Then they will occupy
the position of absoluteness. They will arrive at the center and stand
on the central point, one dot. Love will explode from that point. Each
one of the billions of cells of their bodies will implode upon that
small dot. Love will collapse in and be rooted there. Then it will
explode and expand outwards in circular motion. In laughter we will go
round and round.
Even if you are standing perfectly still, still you are breathing in
and out and there is some motion back and forth. It is very noticeable
to Orientals, who practice the art of sitting still. This motion is the
same as that of the universe. The universe is moving just as you are;
you are a small universe.
According to this teaching, what is your direction as a woman? Women
wonder about being born as women. Sometimes they lament about it. But
women are born for the sake of men. It is deceptively simple. It is
universal truth. And for what are men born? Women. That makes you feel
warm and good. If you say man was born for man and women for women, it
makes you feel cold and chilly.
What about God then? Almighty and all powerful God exists for the
sake of the universe, not for Himself. God does not live for Himself.
In this world, if you only live for yourself, it is so lonely and
meaningless. Living for oneself makes a man so lonely he cries. But he
is not just crying; he is crying centering on something. He cries, not
centering on his eyes, but centering on that organ. He cries because he
is so lonesome.
Each woman seeks to be the best dressed woman in the world. But is
that best dressed woman happy by herself? [No.] And yet a woman who
only wears ragged clothes, but has the world's best husband, is happy.
Once a man tastes and holds a woman, he will never let go. The same for
women. Man and woman would rather die than separate. It is true that
sometimes a man lives for wealth, even to the point of giving his life.
Sometimes he lives for knowledge or power. But which is one willing to
die for: power, wealth, knowledge or love? Love. If a man dies for
wealth, he is considered strange. But if he dies for love, he is
considered great. Thus would God not want to stuff man full of love?
[Yes.]
Even if a man has an abundance of something, he still wants more. If
you have lots of money, you worry to death over it. With knowledge, you
always want more. If you have power, you never have peace; someone is
always chasing you. What about love?
When a young man and woman marry, do they say they have enough
love? No. No one ever feels that their warehouse of love is full.
Wherever one goes, this huge warehouse goes with you. You cannot carry
around all your money, or your library of books full of knowledge.
Politicians do not want their constituents with their problems on their
shoulders. But love is so mobile. Wherever you go with it you feel
comfortable. Where does one want to store one's beloved? In their eyes,
ears and mouth, and in their entire body. Is that true? I don't know.
You know better than me.
How filling love is. It fills you up. As long as you have it, you
don't care about anything else. The world can rotate backwards on its
axis and as long as you have love, you don't care. A man has to go
after something in his life. What should that be? If men and women have
knowledge, don't they fight over it? [Yes.] They bicker. If you have
lots of money, the same is true. American women have individual bank
accounts, yet do they feel comfortable? Open your eyes wide and see if
you can find peace and unification in that situation. Does it exist
there? [No.] But in love there is no limit.
Father is making one great point. Is there anything for which you
are willing to relinquish love? [No.] The absolute essential possession
of man and woman is love. Why? Because this is the purpose for which we
were born. Love begins when you think and act for the sake of the
other. We must seek the possibility of becoming perfectly unified. Love
will come out and say, "I want to stay here forever."
In a woman's eyes is there a hook or not? Are her nose and mouth a
hook? Is her mind a hook? In order to hook love, all her hooks must
work as a perfect symphony. Your forty billion cells, each with their
own hook, will leap for love. Even a sleeping God will wake up. There
is no way to deny this; it is impossible for Father to over-exaggerate
this. We often speak poetically about the sparkling eyes of women; they
are waiting to dash out and hook love. She is totally focused on love.
[Father touches the flower arrangement.] Are they real? Are you
real? Do you want to be the owner of absolute love or not? [Yes.] That
is the answer that you get from all people. So, what is free sex? What
is homosexuality? What meaning do they have? None. They are of the
hellish, satanic world. Free sex and homosexuality are the tools of
Satan to entice people to his side. There is no other meaning to them
than this.
It is woman's true nature not to want a dress which she buys
herself. She wants her husband to buy it for her. Your dress should
come from the one whom you love and who absolutely loves you.
What is the path of love? What road does it travel? Love travels the
path which is the safest. No one can intrude. Do you reveal love or
keep it safe? [Keep it safe.] However, we often see people trying to
show themselves off. Such people will always have trouble. Once you
show yourself off, people examine you. It is better to hide away. The
more you love each other, the less you have to do. Just touch hands or
whisper in the ear. When two poles of electricity come together and
there is light. The same with love. As they come closer together, they
can leap to each other.
It is good to learn truth, but how am I going to accomplish it? We
see that people do not reserve anything today. From the age of ten
there is nothing reserved as secret or precious. They try everything.
How far away we are from the ideal today. This free sex society is very
distant from the ideal world. We are far, far away. So what will be
your response? Will you walk there slowly, or fly there? [Fly.] At what
speed? Do you know how fast love flies? At what speed does a
secularized American move? Can they ever catch up with true love? [No.]
They look here and there for love, but they can never catch up. But you
are different. If there were 1,000 attractive women trying to hook you,
you would spit at them. A fallen man would start making liaisons. For
us, even thinking about that is horrible.
So what is a truthful family? Father could speak ten sermons about
this. Do you really know that love is necessary? Women are born and
exist for the sake of men. Man exists for woman. There is no other
purpose of life. Do you welcome that? [Yes.] Why? Because by living
that way you will occupy true love. It is for the sake of love. It is
so that all cells can be hooked by love. You can forget all loves
except the element of love which is between husband and wife. This
should remain eternally and grow day by day. All loves support this
ideal and bring us to the point of conjugal love.
From conjugal love we should give birth to children. All the fruits
of love reside here. When you reach this point, you will know
everything about your husband without asking. If you are unfaithful, it
is similar to half a building falling down. Divorce is rampant in this
society. It can be triggered by one word. But even if one spouse is
bad, if one continues to live for the other, there will be no divorce.
There is no more powerful revolution than this; you must understand the
power of this love. Women should look in the mirror each morning, and
ask, "Are my eyes and mouth for myself, or do I look at them for
my spouse?" In the fallen world, women use make up to attract
attention from other men, not just from their spouses. This leads to
catastrophic destruction. Women are trying to entice so-called more
qualified men who are already married. They don't mind the damage. They
don't care.
When a man and woman become very close, the vertical love comes to
meet them. They meet at the central point. When the husband and wife
hold hands they begin to rotate. When they kiss they rotate more.
Making love is the completion stage. By the time the husband touches
the wife's bosom, she has opened her growth gate, and they are ready
for the perfection of love. Nothing is reserved for myself. If this is
true love, it works. But if it is not true, it will fail.
In the Unification Church we know where true love begins. There is
no casual marriage, because marriage can only take place in alignment
with the vertical axis. For a marriage to work, man and woman must
stand on a perfectly horizontal foundation. There is no way to
determine this without orientation by the vertical axis. This vertical
axis is always necessary. Therefore, you need the consent of the
parents and all the relatives. If a man marries without these
approvals, he will drift in his own direction. Why is love necessary?
Because love is the only way to occupy God. Through true love, the
world of effect can occupy the world of cause. Once we occupy God we
occupy all things in the universe. We gain ownership. So, should we
marry? [Yes.] Why? For the sake of love, and through love we occupy God
and the whole universe.
God is the invisible owner; man the visible owner of the universe.
My mind is the invisible vertical self and my body the visible
horizontal self. In looking at man, there is a clear vertical line from
his nose to his reproductive organs, which divides him symmetrically.
When a wise man looks at someone, he looks at his vertical and
horizontal lines and at his walk. No two men are alike. Looking at his
face tells a lot, but looking at the body tells all about his life and
his nature. If his mouth is perfectly horizontal, he always tells the
truth. A large mouth means he can speak many words without getting
tired; he is a good orator. If the eyes are always focused, he is
stable. However when the eyes dart around, one is unstable as a parent
and will divorce. If one has small feet, he or she will not do heavy
labor. A person with small hands does not have to do many chores. Each
person is born with their own path of life.
In this building each beam is in its place. We may think we are
free, but if we deviate we are not free. Those who live for others have
a larger safety zone, a larger area of movement. Father has much
property, but nothing is in his own hands. However, all the managers of
these things want to bring them close to Father. All things know the
identity of the original owner. All things know more than humankind
does at this time. This is why the Unification Church is being opposed
but becomes larger and larger.
In the fallen world, they make a large noise but do not accomplish
so much. With us it is the opposite. Nobody hears very much, but the
result is gigantic. When people investigate, they find nothing. It is
because they do not have eyes to see. Spiritually we are a huge
mountain. They only see what is in their line of sight.
When sitting, sit as straight as possible. Many people walk in very
unusual ways. There should be a straight, well-balanced, vertical
line. Then God and the spirit world will take notice of you. Then you
will see your shoes worn evenly. To be a good leader you must have
that, but it is pretty rare. That is Father's qualification. Even
though Father has aged, we don't notice it. He is still straight and
healthy, and he walks quickly, too. There is no better spiritual
discipline than this walking discipline. Walk the right way.
So we know why we cannot marry at our private convenience. We have
to perfectly fit the pattern of the universe. If we do so, then even
though we are small and the universe is huge, no matter where we are we
fit perfectly. Be always in harmony. Have no contradiction. Rev.
Moon's work may have caused controversy in society, but because God
wants this work done, nothing can destroy it. When Rev. Moon comes to
America for the sake of America, he is ardently fighting for the sake
of preserving America's true values. All of the forces supporting
those values will support him. Wherever he goes, even in prison, he
tries to fit into the universal pattern. Such a life helps to broaden
one's experience.
If man and woman are to unite eternally, they must have the correct
vertical and horizontal structure. They must know who is subject and
who is object. Do you understand? [Yes.] But America lacks the
subject-object concept. They think they don't need it, but they are
wrong. For a nation, too, there needs to be a subject. In the nation,
as in the family, as the scope becomes larger and larger, God too
becomes larger and larger. For such growth to take place, we must have
this perfect intersection point where the vertical and horizontal meet.
This is the central line of the universe, where true love moves. This
must be set up before true love can exist or operate. Which line comes
first? The vertical line comes first. In the Orient we write from the
top of the page to bottom. In the West you write from the left side to
the right. In the East we write from the right side to the left. Thus,
East and West will meet at the central point. All religious thought
came from the East to the West. Here in the Unification Church we will
bring the two cultural spheres into unity.
We know which position spouses should take in relation to each
other. If the woman refuses this, she will not have eternal life. Can
two pluses attract? No, they repel. Even the nation must have the
correct structure. As each stage of society is built properly on the
earth, God will descend down vertically. Which is easier, to go up or
to come down? Coming down does not consume as much energy as going up
does. On the individual level your body centers upon your mind. The
mind covers all four directions, 360 degrees. There is nothing the mind
doesn't know.
Until now the world had no center, because the center is the
Messiah's position. The Messiah's attributes constitute the center of
the family, clan, tribe, etc. He will be positioned in the exact center
of the universe, making two perfect lines. Then Satan will not be able
to move. Satan can move around only because the center is not
established. The vertical and horizontal lines will be intact. Satan's
mission is to break this. He wants to destroy any part of it.
Once the Messiah accomplishes this, the real order of the universe
will have been restored. According to this Principle, the drunkards
will not be able to create trouble. True love will live there. Drinking
excessively will no longer be desirable because people naturally will
live according to the law. You will be at peace. Your extra energy can
be used for love.
In the future we will travel along the universal highway of love.
There is universal fate. That fate is very reliable and leaves no room
for accidents. You can go as fast as you want and still you are safe.
That means you may have an idea, then you give it to God, and then
whatever you do you go through this highway. With this in your mind and
with its practice in your life, you can stand on a high hill and look
at the plains and talk to a giant tree. The tree will reply as a
person. That universal "Changun," heavenly fortune, will give
you a good sleep. Sleep is better under a tree than in a house.
Is America the subject over the world? America is an object to the
world. The world is subject. If the object is not living for the world
there is a violation of the Principle. The result is deterioration. We
saw it in the history of the Israelites. They thought they should be
the dominant nation, but the Messiah wanted to sacrifice Israel. This
pattern held also for Rome and England and it holds for America. Why
has America declined since World War II? America must quickly realize
this Principle. America needs Rev. Moon, in order to get themselves
guided correctly. They do not know which direction humankind is going.
It is not too sweet to hear this. It is disturbing. What will happen?
If the older generation doesn't listen, the historical task of
indemnity is passed to the younger generation. The younger generation
will certainly follow Father's ideas, not the old people's ideas. The
second generation must be aware of this.
Today's main topic is the truthful family. The truthful family is
where the vertical line is intact. When you lose your husband, you lose
your family, you lose the universe. Once the vertical and horizontal
relationship is formed perfectly, it doesn't matter which way you are
facing, because it will be the same relative structure. Whichever way
you turn you will have that correct structure.
The hope of any person in any position in the universe is to come to
the central point where the vertical and horizontal lines meet. No
matter which line you follow, you eventually will intersect the center.
When the family becomes like this, it can go anywhere and hold the
value of the universe.
The feelings of the children, brothers and sisters, husband and wife
and parents comprise the essential feelings of the family. Each family
must have perfect children, perfect brothers and sisters, a perfect
husband and wife and perfect parents. That vertical line tells us to
serve others. The vertical lives for the horizontal, the horizontal
for the vertical. In the place where you live for the sake of others,
you find perfection.
In a human being, too, we have bones and flesh. We have the power to
focus our eyes. The nose has two nostrils. In the mouth, the two lips
make a focus while speaking. Ears and hands are the same way.
Without subject and object there is no action. Today's scientists
know that the universe is made up of force. They see the relationship
but they do not know which comes first, the force or interaction. God
has force, but first creates subject and object, and interaction takes
place. Then the force comes. Everything in the universe exemplifies the
subject and object system.
Who is the king of the family? The husband. In your home, the
parents are king and queen. You must have a vertical concept. After
parents, it is your husband. The father is the king of the home; the
queen of the home is the mother. All freedom depends upon this system.
Once you make the vertical, then make the horizontal. After that you
are free to do anything. Americans do not understand freedom. If the
parents are fighting, is there freedom? No, there is only worry. In the
Unification Church you can find real freedom, real happiness. It is
being taught here. So the unification of the world is no problem. The
same point applies to man and woman. Who is subject, who is object?
American people complicate it.
Once you occupy a perfect family it means you already occupy the
universe. This is a king's brood, not a viper's brood. Everyone's
ambition is to be king. Man and women both want to be the monarch. How
can this be solved? Through true love. This means that the truthful
family is the homeland of all perfection. In the family, there is the
father and his offspring, the children's generation. Three generations
comprise a family. The perfect family happens step by step.
We must understand that all of these four positions-parent, husband
and wife, brother and sister, and children-applied to Adam and Eve.
However, who is the center? God is the center, as the parent. Without
parents, brother and sister could not come to exist. For Adam and Eve,
God was in the parent position. Adam and Eve were brother and sister.
Without brothers and sisters there cannot be spouses. Without spouses
there can be no parents. God has to eventually find this family and
present it a certificate. When is the moment God gives the four
certificates to the one family? This is when, centering on God, you
give marriage to your sons and daughters. So, it is like dividing and
coming into unity and dividing again. Becoming a spouse, giving birth
to a child and becoming separated in that position. Later as they grow,
they come together again.
We do not see such a family life much anymore in America. Therefore,
we can only conclude that no one will go to heaven. The simple
conclusion is that heaven is where the family goes. If there is no
perfect true family, they cannot get into the Kingdom of Heaven. So we
must help Father recreate heaven on earth. The fact that Father takes
such pains to teach us means that he is recreating us. Re-creation
cannot be found anywhere except in Rev. Moon's teaching. This is the
greatest, most ideal concept.
So, this is what you can say: when you perfect yourself as a child
and as a brother and sister, then you are ready to become a husband or
a wife and eventually you will become a perfect parent. You can inherit
all the blessings of God. You can only bear children and relate to
brothers and sisters when you have parents in mind. On the right is man
and the left is woman. God then gives them the blessing and they can
reproduce the visible children of God.
God too was once in the child's position and from there He grew. As
we all went to school, He went. He too went through that age group and
came to produce a family, one in which not only His family but all
humankind could fit. Adam and Eve looked just like twins. They
resembled each other and God. They kept growing: kindergarten age,
grammar school age, middle school age, high school age and college age.
If Adam and Eve had not fallen, as they grew they would have followed
the footsteps of their Father, God.
Since Adam and Eve were growing separately, independently, they were
to have no spouse or a reciprocal relationship horizontally. Vertically
they had a relationship. From above, he's subject, she's object. So,
just like God Himself has grown up, Adam and Eve, taking the same steps
as God, should have continued to grow up. Centering on parents, when he
finished his Ph.D., he would have realized that it is not a big name or
honor he should pursue, but a spouse. He saw many examples in the
animal world. "So, that's the way they love." Was so-called
sex education ever necessary? [No.] He learned from the natural world.
So, the purpose of marrying was to perfect himself. By occupying God
he could eventually occupy all of the universe, all creation and the
spirit world. He could then gain ownership.
Giving birth to many children, as Mother did, is good. Why? Your
children will become heavenly people, honorable people. That number is
your honorable property, your most precious property. So Adam and Eve
each would have realized that it is the time for them to meet as
husband and wife. Where would they meet? There is only one ideal place,
only one point: the true love highway. That means that within a pair, a
man and a women, there are children already present. Brother and sister
are already present in them. Husband and wife are present as well.
Also, future parents are there. It is not only they who, after their
marriage, expect perfect children to appear. Because they have the
qualification of having perfected themselves already as perfect
children, perfect brother and sister, and perfect husband and wife,
everyone expects them to give birth to perfect children. You must
understand this is the beginning of God's glorious family, or the
perfected family.
Likewise, what about Adam's children? All humankind follow the same
pattern as Adam and Eve. So, when you stand in the marriage ceremony,
first you must stand as perfect child. Second, you must stand with the
qualification of perfect, completed brother (sister). Third, you must
stand as a candidate to become a perfect husband (wife). It proceeds in
that order.
When you are getting married, your bride is your twin sister. From
her perspective, she is about to wed her own brother, who has with her
common parents in God. They are confident. Just as their parents were
successful in their marriage, having an abundance of love, now they are
confident to do the same. Each knows they can give plenty of love to
their own children. So how can they fight or have discord? The love
they experience the first night doesn't deteriorate, but increases and
becomes richer. By doing that their ownership of the kingdom of heaven
multiplies. They become the second God and rule the universe along with
God.
So God now gives us the blessing. "You too," God says,
"since you are perfected in all these ways are now about to assume
my position and give birth to many children." Since we are about
to have many children, who are to connect with many ancestors in the
spirit world, and with many people on earth, they are welcomed because
they represent the horizontal expansion of the kingdom, just as Father
expanded. This position of receiving the Blessing is to receive from
Father the three diplomas or three qualification papers as perfect
children, perfect brother and sister, and perfect couples. Everything
that God has is in there. Since the bride and groom have all the
elements of perfection, God now comes into this position.
The spiritual God comes down here and becomes a physical God. All
that was only an ideal. Now it is no longer a mere ideal, but an actual
entity. The joy of giving birth to our children is a re-enactment of
the joy God had when He gave birth to us. When we stand in this
position, perfect and having all the created value of our perfection,
we understand beyond a doubt that God indeed created me and everything
else for the sake of God, for other brothers and sisters and for
humankind. If the children marry in a position different from this, the
ideal of God's creation is in vain.
From the point of view of chronological time, what is happening here
is that the future, present and past, the vertical dimension, is
becoming horizontal. Here we have the four realms of heart and the
three kingships. So, we should serve our grandparents as
representatives of God Himself, because they are His ambassadors. Our
parents are the king and queen, who represent the entire world. Our
children represent the future, and are to bring the spiritual and
physical worlds into oneness and inherit all the glory of the present
and past, the kingship of these two worlds.
Since we lost the value of these positions because of the fall,
human desire is to have their parents become the real king and queen
and their grandparents become the real king and queen on earth. Each
person hopes that eventually he or she, too, will become king or queen.
That's the way God created all of us to be. Our own sons and daughters
are in the position of prince and princess of the future, in the
position to inherit the kingdom. This is not a wild dream. Everyone
has the idea of being king, but before that I want my parents to be
king and queen, and before that I want my grandparents to be king and
queen. What is the benefit of inheriting this kingship and queenship?
With this inheritance, no one can deny us when we get into the spirit
world. We can go everywhere; we have a free pass.
We must teach this to our children. This is your kingdom. You are
the future king of the world and the universe; you are like Father and
like God. With this idea the child will grow up and practice this love
horizontally. Before they can go to the spirit world, they will become
king and queen. When we come to the spirit world, we can say, "I
was a king on earth and now I bring that kingdom here." So each
person's realm of influence in the spirit world becomes wider and
wider.
In the spirit world there is no reproduction. God's Principle is for
reproduction here on earth. Therefore, reproduction takes place in the
immense realm of the physical world. God is Father to everyone, nothing
else but Father. So the custom of the tribal messiah, the national
messiah and the world messiah is True Parents' custom. True Parents
have True Love. The fallen world does not have True Parents. The
fallen world has false parents. False parents are the conduit of false
love, limited love. Limited love brings forth limited life. True Love
creates eternal love, eternal life. The fallen world lost eternal love,
eternal life, and the eternal blood lineage. Therefore we have to
recreate the world of the original purpose. This is the purpose of the
providence of God.
There is no room for reproduction in the vertical world. People in
the spirit world cannot multiply. They do not have that root in the
central point. God, therefore, needs the environment for the creation
of people. That is the ideal family-the "formula family
system." Why did every generation of the Christian world call God,
"Father"? They did not know why. It is because every family
is supposed to be the same as Adam's family. The father's position is
that of God. The central point, the absolute subject, is the father, as
in Adam's family. Each family has the same meaning, the meaning of
Adam's family.
This environment is our homeland, our immense homeland. The family
brings the perfection of the homeland. It is the place of final
settlement. The three generation family represents all humankind, every
nation and every age. Everything is concentrated in one place, the
family. The kingdom on earth is the place of the extended family. It is
one family expanded to the size of the world. We look at those younger
than us as our children. Those the same age are like brother and
sister-not a spouse! After children's love and brother-sister love,
there is the couple's love. It is a process of growth from one to the
next. The same concept rules everywhere. Then there is no problem, and
there is total freedom. The whole universe is liberated by the
completion of the family in true love. Everything is connected by this
family, in freedom.
These are the four great realms of heart and the three great realms
of kingship. I come representing the past, present and future. In light
of what I represent and what I stand for, nothing can oppose me.
You did not see how your wife grew up, but by looking at your own
daughter you now can know how your wife grew up. God, too, grew up just
as your sons and daughters grew up, just as you grew up.
It took us 6,000 years to reach this moment, and there is a
population of five billion living on the earth, and they all carry on
in their horizontal way. The True Parents came, whom they call the
Savior. By grafting into the True Parents, all five billion people will
have grafted firmly into God's lineage. Therefore, from them, too, will
come true children. This is God's love; His dispensation. The fallen
world is going in one direction, Father in another. Father has already
made the ground, the foundation, and just through the glimpse given
this morning, you have more than enough to bring the unification of the
whole world overnight.
We have a blueprint, so why can't we build according to this
blueprint? There are so many people with great intelligence. They will
want to occupy God quickly; this is the hope of true human ambition. Do
you understand or not? [Yes.] Then you understand more than me! You are
a big crowd of people, and I am only one man. You are a big mountain of
people increasing everyday. Automatically, the universe will be unified
centering on the ideal of true love. How wonderful our ideal is. Amen!
The real family makes the completion of the heavenly homeland. That
is your family. Everyone in such a family is thankful-parents,
grandparents, children. American people do not have relatives. They are
like the archangel, who does not have partnership. This is the root
cause of the phenomena of free sex, homosexuality and lesbianism. Who
likes that kind of partnership? It's a problem. Now that you
understand, you have to speak loudly about it.
So, we must understand that it is the family and not the individual
which goes into heaven. In order to form a family we must unite
ourselves as Cain and Abel. Then all the royal families come into
being, royal families within the realms of kingship and queenship. That
is all humankind. The vertical kingship is in the subject position. The
horizontal aspect is royal familyship. The two combined create a bigger
center with which God can connect. As it becomes bigger, it corresponds
with a higher vertical level. That is the recreation system,
establishing the ideal world. It is inevitable.
So Father can shout to the world, "It does not matter who you
are. The presidency of a nation or any high position mean nothing.
What matters is if you can suggest a better idea to save humankind. Can
you suggest a better ideal concept of the Kingdom of Heaven, or peace,
or all these crucial issues? Can you surpass the Unification
Church?" Rev. Moon doesn't think so. There are only one True
Parents, eternally. So all religions, all nations, must heed this
statement.
You are the royal family directly under Father. If all the world and
universe understand even before you do and follow Father better than
you do, then what will you say for yourselves in the future? Especially
those who oppose Father will be blamed eternally by their own children.
They will question why you failed to follow, just as the descendants of
Adam constantly accuse Adam for creating the fallen situation. As
fallen people we must deny ourselves so that we can measure up to the
complete goal, that of true recreation. We must go the indemnity way.
Fallen people must deny themselves, so that they can reach the goal of
freedom.
The Unification movement must understand that it is to form that
royal kingship and royal families. It must create that structure, so to
speak, exactly according to the form of Principle. This is the
Unification Church. There are four great Principles. First you see the
restoration of elder sonship, then the restoration of parentship, then
the restoration of kingship, and the restoration of royal kingship. We
should always remember this. This is what God aims to restore through
True Parents. Unification members must learn this by heart.
We should be prouder than ever that we have True Parents. When True
Parents appear, kings will follow after them. Ultimately, kings will
become their royal family relatives. Throughout history, men made
themselves kings instead of allowing God to be king. That is evil,
which expanded from the tribe to the nation and world. God doesn't want
that. Still, God has no concept of having an enemy. He does not
consider even the most untrustworthy person to be an enemy. If we
identify an enemy of God, that means that we have a bipolar thought,
representing two origins, not one origin. So, Rev. Moon has no enemy,
no matter how difficult it is to work in the fallen world. Satan knows
that; therefore Satan cannot accuse Rev. Moon in front of God.
America as a nation and as people have acted as an enemy to Rev.
Moon. Isn't that true? During this period, Rev. Moon has passed over
everything. He established one newspaper, which fights against all the
liberal papers. No hope exists in America. American leaders understand
this, wondering how they can survive. The secular world can find no
answer. They don't like to place hope in Rev. Moon. Satan hates Rev.
Moon, too. Therefore, the actions of Americans are leading to a
breakdown. Satan is breaking America down, and God is building America
back up, following the providential course. God is bringing the
completion, through the unity of right and left.
How can the universal truth appear on the earth? Through life for
the sake of others. You cannot deny that. From life for the sake of
others, the root is connected. That root connects to true love. Satan
cannot connect to that root. It is the point of completion. But you
must deny everything: the nation, the world and everything in it.
Satan's original position is going down and God's original position
is going up, to the point that they are exchanging positions.
Recreation begins when you leave behind all concepts. The fallen world
is recreated by going through the zero point. Without that, you cannot
reach the ideal existence. It is the same for Rev. Moon. How could I
deny the entire world? How could I deny the Korean nation? How could I
deny my family? You must have an atmosphere of going over and winning
victory. Then everything can be recreated.
For example, in North Korea and South Korea, every party was against
me. But now we are approaching Kim Il Sung's eightieth birthday and he
is sincerely inviting Rev. Moon to please come. Think about that. He
made me his younger brother, and became my elder brother. So I said,
you have to hear your younger brother's voice. I can get Soviet Union
and other nations to help you. He said, "South Korea is against
Rev. Moon, so I like Rev. Moon." He wants to welcome me to his
bosom and have me teach his twelve million people. People all over the
world will be surprised by Rev. Moon's powerful authority. In this way,
the world can turn around in one moment.
I have taught now for almost four hours. In the secular world,
sermons are a maximum thirty or forty minutes. My record time is
sixteen and one-half hours. I didn't even go to the toilet. The
interpreter, Pak Bo Hi, had to leave many times to go to the bathroom.
I understand. [Laughter.] I was sweating; that is the secondary way of
elimination.
So Father has taught us everything. Now we don't need Father for the
sake of teaching us. We know that this is the homeland of all
perfections. [To President Baughman:] Do you love your Korean wife?
[Yes.] You say yes, but Father doesn't believe that. Maybe you
sometimes think that you were talked into it. [Laughter.] You weren't
talked into it; she is the best wife you could ever have. All the
blessed couples here, no matter to whom you are married-Korean,
Japanese or American-you are so blessed. After the world is restored,
Father may meet ten couples every morning. Then the line will stretch
from here to Washington, DC, and even beyond, even as far as South
America.
Is it reality that the True Parents are standing here? Real True
Parents are here. But Father does not have to appear in person as he
always has. There is such a thing as videotape. In a video broadcast,
Father can address the entire world simultaneously. God prepared that
facility.
Based upon what Father has already taught us, and even without
Father teaching us anymore, do we now have a passport to go to heaven,
or is that something we have yet to attain? [We have it now.] Maybe you
will have it in the future, but your possession of a passport is not
guaranteed. What is guaranteed is that you have to practice and
accomplish the above and then that passport will be valid. You have
heard everything, but you have not done everything. Each person is at a
different level. There are black peoples' concepts, white peoples'
concepts and yellow peoples' concepts. Therefore the results are
different everywhere. How can we be unified? You like cheese and
hamburgers. [Laughter.] Koreans like kochuchan and kimchee. It's hot,
and Americans don't like that. Americans are cheese color. How can we
create the parents' way? It's not easy; it will take many many years.
How can we accomplish it in a short time?
So this is the time when dreams are realized. April is a blossoming
month. We see the spring come every year without fail, but the spring
of God's dispensation is happening now for the first time in history.
It is the first spring after Father announced the Completed Testament
era. With the greatest joy and the greatest confidence that we have met
this incredible time, this incredible family and this incredible Father
and Mother, we should lift up this country and rock this country and
the world to wake them up.
Who is going to prevent the spread of AIDS? Neither traditional
education, secular education nor medicine can overcome the spread of
AIDS. Only education by the Unification Church can do it. Think about
saving America. This is Father's wish. If America shows a good example,
the whole world will follow automatically. But America is practicing
the satanic way of life. There will be a time when we have to warn the
world, "Don't come to America. There is nothing to learn
here." Americans are not welcomed everywhere. They show nothing
but a bad example. We have to change America quickly, so that God can
welcome everyone to America to learn from America's example.
Now you have graduated from college, and you have a Ph.D. as well.
At this time, you must teach. That is your mission, everywhere. One
individual, one group, one school, one university, you have to teach.
You can broadcast on NBC, CBS and so forth. Say, "Give me the
microphone. I will talk." You have to save your country. Until now
you didn't do that. Look at your nation's situation. How miserable it
is, going down, getting hit. It is not Rev. Moon's country; he is a
temporary visitor. He has to go back to his hometown. We will have to
separate. I spent much time here, receiving much persecution. Father's
parents and relatives, the Korean people, don't want that.
You have to save your country. I have sent out many Tribal Messiahs,
to 160 countries and throughout America too. Young people are sent out
as Tribal Messiahs. They are to unite mothers with their children, in
the position of Eve and Cain and Abel, combining into oneness. That is
Tribal Messiah indemnity. Through the fall, Eve lost Cain and Abel.
They went into hell.
The Messiah is one man; how can he reach the whole world? The way of
expansion is through the Tribal Messiahs. All five billion people will
understand that Rev. Moon is a good world leader. But the world is
standing on Satan's side, and Rev. Moon is standing on God's side. So
the world doesn't want him. But Satan will completely disappear. Rev.
Moon is a powerful presence, appearing everywhere, including in America
and even in North Korea. Kim Il Sung hated me most of all. He was the
champion enemy. But that side is disappearing now.
I will open a school teaching Godism and headwing thought. Look at
what's happening in the C. I. S. Unification education is being
developed at the highest level schools, reaching the youth of highest
intellect. These are their future world leaders, being educated with a
curriculum completely connected with Rev. Moon's idea. They are always
inviting me there. I received the invitations from President Yelstin,
but I could not go. The timing was not right. All the government
members are being educated. They are surprised by what they are
hearing. They thought that communism was the ultimate idea, but they
find that their ideology could not answer everything and work
everywhere. Now they are finding that Rev. Moon's ideology is very high
level. They are giving an open-hearted welcome.
Why did I not go there? First I must see North and South Korea
unified. Three republics of the C. I. S. want to make us their
national church. Why not make that foundation in the soviet area?
After that, what of the free world? It will have to change direction.
I've been working for forty years in the free world, the Abel-side
world. The communist world doesn't have the religious foundation-the
Old and New Testament foundation. The root is not there. The Russian
church is non-existent. Now Americans go to Moscow to be educated.
Young people from Russia have become teachers of Divine Principle to
the Americans. This is just after two years. They change their concept
from atheism so quickly because they are so intelligent. They
recognize the value of the Divine Principle, and question who could be
opposing Rev. Moon. Their reaction is to dislike whomever opposes me.
Now that change is taking place in reality. In five day workshops
their atheism is dispelled completely. They become theists. They are
stronger individuals than Americans. They are unified as well, with 200
million moving in one direction. If you bring together 1,000 Americans,
they are going in 1,000 directions. America is such a headache. You
know it, but you have no way to solve it.
We gave so much to America. For what? To save the Christian world,
which represents 6,000 years of providence. So much hard work was
invested throughout history; I want to keep that spiritual foundation.
God is the only one who understands me. I am almost ready to leave this
country, to say goodbye. But they need Rev. Moon's teaching. So for
the last time, starting this May, I will speak in twelve cities to the
American people. Then I will have taught the contents of truth, which
will testify forever to America.
You have to take that responsibility instead of Father. You have to
inherit Father's mission. Can you do it? [Yes.] Can you do it? [Yes.]
Really? [YES!] Three hundred people said yes, but even just one man
can stir up good problems, as did Rev. Moon. Surrounding you are your
relatives and friends; they want to hear Rev. Moon's ideas applied to
their areas. High level people understand Rev. Moon well. They want to
know his viewpoint. A sleepy guy can never understand Rev. Moon's
foundation.
Which way to do you like, the convenient way or inconvenient way?
[Convenient.] I like the inconvenient way. To come to America was
inconvenient. The FBI, CIA, and all the agencies of the government were
investigating me. Then this cosmetic messiah came out in Texas.
Americans don't like it. But I like the place no one likes. Can you go
to Texas? [Yes.] But it is a hot place, 100 degrees, 105 degrees. You
have to work in the field, farming. Can you do that? [Yes.] No one
likes that place, but I like it. Therefore I am the champion owner.
Texas is too wide. I will make one eternal settlement there. I have
hope there. But Father is old, over 73 years old, going on 74.
God is the greatest computer, in the spirit world. You have physical
computers on earth, but they are small and weak. Therefore, I can do
the best matching of men and women. In the realm of True Parents there
is no distinction of Americans, English, Korean. There is no
distinction based upon Ph.D. degrees. Everything is connected to true
love, as your whole body is connected to one hair. In spirit world, you
don't need a house or food. Everything is prepared. I want to live in
that true love country.
You have to go to the front line, fighting Satan. Father will chase
you out, into the dungeon of hell. You must reach completion. Can you
do it? [Yes!] Those who can, raise both hands. Thank you.
(Col. Han's prayer.)
