Victory
Celebrations at East Garden
A Garden Party with the 2nd Generation
After speaking at Madison Square Garden, True Mother made her way to East Garden
the following morning on July 16 to speak to young Unificationists
who participated in the Hyojeong Youth Workshop. The full
transcript of her message can be found below.
Has anyone of you [young people] received the Blessing? Most of you
probably havenft. What did Jesus say to the thief on his right when he was on
the cross? He said, gToday you will be with me in paradise.h Why did he say
gparadiseh and not gheavenh? Jesus came to earth to form the True Parents. I
already said this the other day, but Mary, a central
figure, did not fulfill her responsibilities. Zachariahfs family, the Jewish people,
and the Israelites did not fulfill their responsibilities. Todayfs Catholic
Church attends Mary like an idol. However, she was the woman who drove Jesus to
the cross. Therefore, Jesus said, gI will come again.h He said he would come to
hold the marriage supper of the Lamb.
Godfs ultimate creation was a man and a woman. They were to grow and
finally receive the Blessing from God. They should have become the True Parents
of humankind, yet fallen humankind was the result of not doing so.
Therefore, your maturity is most important. You must have a lifestyle
aligned only with me, with the True Parents! Just as a sunflower always aligns
itself toward the sun, you must unconditionally unite with True Mother. Until
you are ready to receive the Blessing, you must maintain your purity. You must
not have greed like that of Adam or Eve. The result of that was the Fall. Do you understand?
Heaven is a place that only Blessed families
can enter. Jesus used the word gparadiseh rather than gheavenh because he had
no family of his own. People today are lucky to be able to meet True Parents.
You must receive the Blessing through True Parents. Only when you do that can
you take the path to be in True Parentsf lineage, which has nothing to do with
the Fall. Please bear this in mind. Do you understand?
I will compliment you on one thing. You did very well the other day.
Good work. When I call, you will respond unconditionally, wonft you? Thank you.
