SPEAKS ON
WHO ARE THE PARENTS
OF HEAVEN AND EARTH
AND THE UNIFIED WORLD?

As you can read here, the topic of Father's speech this morning is,
Chonji boomo wa tongil saegae-Who are the Parents of Heaven and Earth
and the Unified World? Heaven is symbolic of the father, and earth is
symbolic of the mother. The sun symbolizes the father and the moon
symbolizes the mother. Air symbolizes the father, and water, the
mother. We know that both air and water are life itself. Father does
not have much time this morning, therefore let us all listen
attentively. The purpose of the restorational history and the ideal of
creation is the creation and recovery of parents. Parents are that
important. They are God's everything. Parents are the center of the
entire creation. Centering upon parents, all things exist.
The kingship of earth and Heaven are like both sides of the hands;
the inside and outside of the same thing. It is like the relationship
between mind and body in an individual person. Centered upon what, do
we become one in mind and body? If humankind had not fallen only one
love, True Love, would be in the center of mind and body unification.
Centering upon parents, only True Love can unify all that we intend to
unify; such as mind and body, couples, and parents and children. These
three elements constitute families, as you know. The purpose of all
creation is to create families. It is the formula and purpose of God's
creation itself. The purpose of men and women is the family unit.
Parents symbolize Heaven and children symbolize the earth. Heaven
and earth must become harmoniously unified, and so must parents and
children. Man and woman represent east and west, respectively. Heaven
and earth, east and west are to be unified. North and south are closer
to the relationship of up and down, or Heaven and earth. The children
represent the people of the world all living harmoniously. We have to
bear in mind that only True Love can bring all of these elements into
harmonious unity. Since the fall, a false love came into being and now
everyone exists centering upon this false love. We see conflict
everywhere and people are seeking unity and peace. False love, false
life, false lineage and false consciousness are all components of the
false families which have extended into the world we see. Day and night
mind and body are in conflict, giving us pain as individuals. Such men
and women are living together with children, all with their minds and
bodies separated. This becomes like eight people living together in
conflict, instead of living in harmony.
Everyone is longing for peace, but it is impossible for peace to
come into existence easily. Instead of one large family of goodness
coming into being, we have developed into one large, bad world.
Therefore, centering upon each individual, God began separating good
from bad. God is working to bring a person to His side, but Satan
resists and will not release him. It is so plainly obvious, that the
history of the world is the history of good and evil. It is none other
than the Cain and Abel relationship and left and right wing. Centering
upon Jesus, there was a right and a left wing and this goes back to
Adam's family. This is the right and left wing that is apparent in our
world today.
The world has been fighting for such a long time between right and
left wing. Now, the atheistic left wing has crumbled. Centering on the
fall, Adam and Eve ceased to exist and their children consequently fell
into conflict, into right and left wing. Since failure occurred at the
individual family unit within Adam's family, then in Jesus' time it was
to be restored at the national level. At the national level, Jesus was
unable to survive. Therefore, the thief on the left and the thief on
the right, symbolizing Cain and Abel, have come to fight each other in
the Last Days. In the Last Days, the Lord of the Second Advent, in the
place of Jesus himself, as Parents will fulfill at the worldwide level.
He will restore the loss of parents at the family level and the loss of
parents at the national level. At this third stage, the victory will
be won by the Lord of the Second Advent. He will become the Parents of
the whole world and bring Cain and Abel into unity.
As True Parents emerge centered upon True Love, Satan has no more
claim in the realm of True Love. This is what Adam and Eve were meant
to establish within God's providence. What Adam could not accomplish
and what Jesus was unable to accomplish at the national level, will now
be accomplished at the worldwide level by the Lord of the Second
Advent. This is to fulfill the purpose of creation and open up Heaven
which is presently empty. To bring all men, women and families back
into unity and to create Heaven on earth. God's purpose of creation is
accomplished on the earth, not in Heaven. This is the overview of God's
dispensation.
Forty years ago this could have been accomplished. We need to
seriously consider why this was not able to be accomplished at that
time. At the end of World War II, England, America and France were the
three central nations of God's providence. In God's view they
represented Eve and Cain and Abel [indicating the board]. At both the
family and national levels, God had lost both Eve and Cain and Abel.
Only after the allied victories of World War II was the bride realm of
the Christian culture able to make complete unity, for the first time
in history. It was a time when mind and body, Heaven and earth could
have come into unity. At that point, all the restored units of the
family could have become one with the bridegroom (the messiah). This
would have been the culmination of God's purpose of creation. The whole
world would have become Heaven at that time.
Heaven and earth could have become into one and brought the children
into unity, thus creating the Kingdom of Heaven. All, would be turned
around 180 degrees and automatically have been moving into Heaven,
instead of hell. All this could have originally been accomplished in
Adam's family. However, this was not accomplished, and so after
thousands of years, at the end of World War II, the world now stood at
a worldwide level. After all, indemnity had been paid, then Satan would
have been expelled from the world.
Humankind has been falsely believing in the Lord of the Second
Advent coming on the clouds in the form of Jesus himself, not as a
physical being. Since in the Old Testament time they failed to believe
in Jesus' advent; in order to re-indemnify this failure, the Christians
must believe in the Lord of the Second Advent. Christianity is placed
in the same position as the Jewish people of Jesus' time, believing the
Lord will come from the clouds. They have to be able to go over that
belief and accept that he will come as a human being. Before the Old
Testament is fulfilled, the New Testament cannot be fulfilled. The True
Parents and the Completed Testament Age must be preceded by the
fulfillment of Christianity. Father is going through the same situation
as Jesus, 2000 years ago. Because he did not literally come on the
clouds then he receives persecution, just as Jesus did in his time.
Father must go through this cross, go over it and live. Christianity
stands in the same position to Father that Judaism did towards Jesus.
At the time of the Second Advent every element is represented: the
family, nation and worldwide level. Once this is accomplished, unity
will occur instantaneously. Even the unification between North and
South Korea will become instantaneous when this time comes. Do you
follow? (Yes.) Forty years ago the bridegroom was not accepted. This
was equivalent to the chosen people rejecting Jesus. Once Father was
expelled, God literally lost everything.
From that point on everything went into the hands of Kim Il Sung, the
worst
parents, the false parents. He represented the Second Advent of the
communist world. He occupied everything. Father found himself totally
isolated by the satanic world. Thereafter, the family would break into
pieces, and even the nation of Korea was divided into two.
Because Father survived and continued to exist and strive for God,
Korea was able to exist. Even though North and South were fighting with
one another, without Father's existence Korea would not have existed at
all. These were forty years of incredible fighting and struggle by
Father in order to bring all of the lost pieces back into position.
Through this, Father indemnified 4000 years of history in this
forty-year period. In 1992, when Mother began her work, until 1995 are
a time of great transition for the whole world. The second year of
this three-year period, which is 1994, Kim Il Sung died. [Father draws
on the board.] In July 1994, Kim Il Sung died. 1992 is the fortieth
year [indicating the board]. These three years after 1992, in the
second year of this three-year period is 1994 which also happens to be
the fortieth year of the founding of the Unification Church. If we
place Christianity in the position of Cain and the Unification Church
in the position of Abel, then it has taken exactly forty years to
indemnify the entire lost history. That is equivalent to 4000 years of
God's work re-indemnified. Since the work was finished by the end of
that fortieth year, then this time can begin without delay. [Father
continues to draw on the board.] It is seven years from 1945-1952. The
fortieth year after 1952 is 1992. As we see, the Family Pledge came
into being at this time. That symbolizes the complete
re-indemnification of the whole lost history.
At the end of forty years the Israelites were marching forward with
the Ark of the Covenant, and now the Unification Church is moving
forward with the Family Pledge. We must bring forth the construction of
the heavenly nation or fatherland. Without this, there can be no
kingdom on this earth. Just as the Israelites claimed their own
nation, so also the Unification Church has to establish a country of
its own. Which is the country of God? Korea is not yet. No country can
be called that yet. In God's mind, the Korean peninsula has enough
signs that it might possibly be that nation. It is the only country in
the whole world where North and South are fighting, and where there are
two sets of parents, one true and one false. At the end of the fortieth
year Kim Il Sung had to leave as there was no place for him any more.
After World War II, once the worldwide foundation prepared by God
was lost by the bride culture of Christianity failing to unite with the
messiah, there was only one way and that was to rebuild this
foundation. Without this there would be no hope for the Kingdom of God
to come on the earth. It is not something vaguely conceptual, but
rather it falls into precise time periods. Since God lost England,
America and France, [Father draws on the board] then Father chose
Japan, America and Germany in their place. Since the restoration takes
place always in reverse, then children or sons and daughters will be
recovered first, then mother. Adam, or the Lord of the Second Advent,
comes as the bridegroom. Who is God? What is God? Parents. What
parents? Vertical parents. How about Adam? Horizontal parents. Where do
these parents connect? When the love of God and man begins
individually, then the path will become divided. This will become a
great problem. Because, if so, unification can never be accomplished in
this way. God's love and man's love must begin precisely from the same
position. Do you understand? (Yes.)
Where does this precise position begin? (True Parents.) Where
precisely in True Parents? In the sexual organ. Most people consider
that to be the worst place. Before the fall, this was the most holy
place. God was meant to dwell in that place, centering upon True Love.
True Love foundation is exactly that point. Which place? (Sexual
organ.) Is that true? (Yes.) Satan knows this better than anyone else,
and he tries to bring this holy place into disrepute through free sex.
God's original ideal base has been brought down so low. Through this
degradation, it has become the extension of hell on the earth.
Originally, it was meant to become the extension of Heaven on the
earth. Free sex, homosexuality and lesbianism are exactly opposite to
God's purpose of creation. Is that true? (YES.) We must clearly
understand this. As long as this trend continues, America is completely
on a false path. The disease of AIDS is far worse than the once-dreaded
leprosy. Just as lepers have been isolated in the past, so those with
AIDS have to be isolated.
When Father announced this, he was really boiling up, because people
do not know which way to go. The Washington Times has been clearly
speaking out in this way and is now being listened to. This disease is
becoming rampant amongst the rich, famous and privileged. Do you
follow? (Yes.) Most especially, the responsibility of the second
generation is to protect themselves from this phenomena.
The world holds no central concept of family, tribe, nation and
world. To be confused and complicated means to have no consistent
direction. Satan has made this complication out of God's original ideal
of creation. No matter what power anyone may have, they are unable to
restore this original base of the ideal of God's creation. You have to
understand this? The contrary position in the Unification Church is
that we have that ideal individual concept, family, national and world
concept. Do you understand? (Yes.) The most pronounced problem in
today's world is that of the family. Every nation of the world is
experiencing problems within families. What about the Unification
Church? Only the Unification Church is free of family problems, free of
AIDS, homosexuality and free sex. Now we understand.
The name of Reverend Moon, finally resurrects. (APPLAUSE.) [Father
draws on the board.] Eight stages here; Adam and Eve, family, tribe,
nation, world, cosmos and God. Within the family, mother (Eve), Cain
and Abel, these three elements which were lost in Adam's family, at the
worldwide level were represented by England, France and America.
[Father indicates the board.] This is the family level and this is the
world level. At Jesus' time, we can see it was the national level. If
Jesus had been successfully married in the sight of God, then he would
not have had to die. Israel was in the Cain position and Judaism was in
Abel's position in Jesus' time. Had everything come into unity within
the family itself, it would have been the successful conclusion to
God's providence. If Mary did well in Jesus' time, then Jesus would not
have had to die. That, of course, is another problem. When unity takes
place, then a unified world comes into being. [Father draws on the
board and indicates.] Individually this failed, and worldwide this
failed. This is a 4000-year lapse from this point to this point
[indicating the diagram], then for the third time, Germany, Japan and
America are representatives.
As you can see, ironically both Japan and Germany were originally
members of the Axis countries and the satanic world. God selected them
because they were ready and God had fostered them [indicating the
board]. Since these were lost to Satan, what is left is only the worst;
represented by Japan and Germany. Since America represented both the
Jewish world and Christian world, it was selected again. All members of
this second trinity are enemies of one another. In the original trinity
they were allies. Korea and Japan are enemy nations, Germany and
America were enemy nations, and America and Japan were enemy nations.
All of them are enemies to each other. Now with them becoming one, we
are rediscovering the lost America.
Therefore, this new trinity of countries must now climb to the level
of the original trinity of countries [indicating the board] which they
are now. To Father, all of these nations are enemies because none of
them embraced Father as they should have in the sight of God. America
has betrayed Father, because Christianity did not embrace Father.
Leading all of these conflicting countries, Father has come to save
America out of all of this. At the end of the forty years of the
Unification Church, there is a mammoth victory in accomplishing all of
this. Also, at the end of the forty years, America wins a gigantic
victory of its own. That is the victory of the Republicans. (YEAH.
Applause.) Everyone recognizes that the Washington Times has been an
instrumental force in achieving this. Together with the victory of
Abel, the victory of Cain also came about. As the Unification Church
then wins in the position of Abel, America, in the position of Cain
wins also as the representative of the free world. From now on, they
must listen to and follow Father. Can you do this? (Yes.) Americans did
not know this is what they should do. That is the Unification Church's
mission to help the American people and the leaders of this nation
understand, otherwise there is no other way for America to live.
Here then the problem is Eve. How to bring the world into unity?
Because of the fall, mind and body came to be divided. Through the
mother, Eve, the mind and body came to be divided and Cain and Abel
came into being. The religions of the world are comparable to the
mind; while the body is represented by the political world. These two
worlds are fighting one another, just as man's mind and body are
fighting one another. How can these be unified? The only way is through
God's True Love, connecting to that blood lineage. Centering upon the
mother, Eve, mind and body, Cain and Abel separated. Since this
happened, the whole world followed this pattern. The Inter-Religious
Federation for World Peace and the Federation for World Peace were
created representing the mind and body. In Abel's position at the world
level is the democratic world. In the Cain position is the atheistic
world. We see this mind and body, Cain and Abel division represented at
the world level. The role of mother here [indicating the diagram] is
to bring this into unity and that into unity also. Both of these are
the role of the mother. The unification between the religious realm
and the political realm which is equivalent to the position of mind and
body.
Mother represents the Women's Federation for World Peace which has
expanded to 160 nations. These eight stages [indicating the board] are
all a partial entity of Mother. Within the Unification Church 160
families are comparable to 160 nations of the world today, which is all
the result of these forty years of re-indemnification. These families
are representatives of each nation. The family must elevate through
these stages back to the world level. Since they are all grafted into
Parents, they can inherit the blessing of the world level. Unless we do
this, we cannot register into the heavenly country. In other words, we
cannot belong to Heaven. Do you understand? True Mother goes through
these eight stages, and each of these stages will become a part of
Mother at each stage. Mother then has to give rebirth, which means
being born again. Each person must establish the condition that they
have indeed lived centered upon True Parents. [Father draws upon the
board.] Six thousand years, divided into three. Two thousand years of
vertical time period must be indemnified horizontally. This took place
vertically because time flows vertically, but at the same time today
this is re-indemnified on a horizontal level. Individually beginning
with the first Adam, then second Adam (Jesus), and the third Adam (Lord
of the Second Advent), are in God's eyes all three brothers. This means
they are considered as contemporaries; brothers of the same generation.
When these three brothers are all successful, then the whole
vertical history will revive and live again. Amazing! All people in
between and around these three are all in parent and son relationship.
Once Father gains victory, the same success will flow automatically to
the children. Whatever belongs to the parents can automatically be
inherited by the children without claim. All that is needed is that one
individual to sign and everyone on that realm can automatically go into
the Kingdom of Heaven. This means that all generations since the time
of Adam can now resurrect and accomplish the work of resurrection. Now
they can all come and instantaneously help the situation here on earth.
When earth gains victory, they will gain victory all at the same time.
The spiritual realm is the archangel realm. The archangel was supposed
to help in Adam's perfection. The original creation was brought about
with the help of the archangel. Therefore, the spiritual realm has the
condition to assist in the re-creation at this time. In this Principle
all you need to do is pass through one marriage ceremony. Centered upon
that, everyone who participates in that is restored back to Heaven,
because in the very beginning the wrong marriage was the cause of all
misery. Now, in order to repair that, it is necessary to go through the
right marriage ceremony. Do you follow?
What is the result of the fall? Everyone who has entered into false
marriages, that means everyone in the world population. The remedy is
to return to the blessing by True Parents. That is it. Since we cannot
deal with it individually, the rest of the people between here
[indicating the diagram] can register, back to their own ancestors so
to speak. There are thousands of generations represented here. Suppose
that thousands of families were married here, it means that thousands
of generations can be restored at the same time. Because they represent
each one [indicating the diagram] like so, in this relationship.
Several thousands of generations can be represented. Horizontally, one
generation becomes blessed, then back in the history of that generation
all can gain benefit. Suppose 10,000 couples are blessed, that means
that 10,000 generations are represented in that 10,000 couples. The
tribal messiah work will bear fruit instantaneously. What a staggering
amount of work you would need to invest in order to make this happen,
but here [indicating the board diagram], this is how it can happen.
Father already has proclaimed this throughout the world. The
spiritual world has understood this. On this side we have the CARP and
on this side the Youth Federation for World Peace. [Father is drawing
on the board.] They represent Cain and Abel. Mother works directly on
Cain and Abel, her children. Likewise, True Mother embraces the whole
world and each individual mother in each family must work through their
Cain and Abel. Like so, vertically [indicating the diagram]. When that
individual work is accomplished, all will be connected in order. We
need a clear concept of how the world will be meticulously woven so
that all can be brought back into one.
In the Unification Church, we will do the work centering upon the
United Nations at the world level. That whole world will be embraced by
True Mother. [Father is drawing a diagram on the board to illustrate.]
At each level, high school students and college students will all be
brought into oneness. They are all a part of True Mother. In other
words, they represent True Mother. They will engraft into the victory
that True Mother has won and they will inherit that victory as her
children. The Youth Federation for World Peace is doing all of this.
All this part is Abel and all this part is Cain. True Mother is
bringing this Cain and Abel into unity at this level, and individually
collectively here [indicating the diagram], and this itself becomes the
unified world.
Here, the parents of Heaven and earth means that Heaven represents
the positive or subject, and earth object, plus and minus. Father and
Mother are also plus and minus. Here, Heaven and earth become plus and
Father and Mother become minus here [indicating the board]. This stands
in the plus position to the minus position which now becomes of the
unified world. Centering upon Mother, all are in object position and
come into unity of a subject and object relationship. The coming of
True Mother embraces the whole world. All mothers of individual
families should, representing True Mother, work on our individual
families. Together here [indicating the board] then connect vertically
with the Youth Federation for World Peace.
The responsibility of women is very great. We are now in the time of
women. The Lord of the Second Advent's main work is to pave the road
for True Mother to tread. Forty years ago in 1945, this work could have
been accomplished in such a short time. However, since God lost
everything at that time, there is no country today. Whereas after World
War II, there were countries. Centering upon Christianity, countries
must be restored. The United Nations, the nations in the Cain position
and the nations in the Abel position must be brought into unity. We
must all work to bring this about. Since True Mother had no clear idea
of this, Father has paved the road for Mother to walk. Until 1992,
Mother followed Father absolutely without question, otherwise the
unified world could not be created. Do you understand? In 1992, the
liberation of womanhood was proclaimed, centered upon True Mother. This
was the first time in history that Mother stood on Father's level side
horizontally. That means that, worldwide, all women can be liberated.
True Mother represents the whole of the woman's world. Once women
inherit the victory of True Mother, they are ready to come forth to
their husband, the bridegroom. Until now, women did not have this
qualification. You may not understand this completely clearly; that is
all right, it is not so important, compared to other things. When
Father has more time, he will explain this to us more clearly. Once you
follow True Parents absolutely, you don't have to know. (Laughter.)
The source of the problem within Adam's family was disbelief and the
discord of love. They failed to make a connection with God's True
Love. In order to restore this lack of confidence, we need absolute
belief. Instead of this discord of love, we need absolute heartistic
unity. The fall took place because the children's mind did not
understand the agony of their Parent's mind. Because of this, the
children became indifferent. In order to re-indemnify this failure, all
of us must seek to know what goes on in True Mother's mind, what kind
of difficulties, what kind of agony she has to face in order to reach
out to us and the rest of the world. That is the commandment which
Father has required of Mother also. Mother has to pay attention to
everything which Father does. Likewise, we must have an absolute
experience of what Father and Mother are going through. We must become
as one body with our Parents. This is the commandment of children; to
believe absolutely in what Father and Mother are doing and experience
our Parents' heart. This applies to all family relationships, including
True Children. Whoever does not agree with Father and Mother has no
place here.
The children's unity with their Parents must work to bring about the
unification of the nation, and indeed the nation itself. When we have a
country, the second generation can be blessed at that time. Until that
time, there will be no inheritance made to children. Once this country
comes into being, the second generation can be blessed. Only when the
nation emerges, can True Parents pass the inheritance to the children.
The second generation has to understand this point very clearly. It
isn't that the second generation is free to do whatever they wish after
inheriting the victorious foundation from the first generation and
Parents. After reaching Canaan, the second generation should be burning
with the desire to establish a nation of their own and God's own. They
need to create a new constitution. The second generation must clearly
understand this, otherwise they will be without direction.
After entering into Canaan, the problem was that the mother and
children did not come into complete unity. In Haran, the mother worked
so hard in order to provide for the children, but did not have time
enough to educate the children correctly. Father is now asking all
children to come into complete unity with True Mother, at all levels.
All satanic forces, visible and invisible, work toward trying to
separate the unity between the True Children and Mother and any kind of
unity within True Family. That is what Satan does all the time. That is
not Father's individual advice, this is the Principle. This is
traditional thought, not any individual thought; not even True
Father's. This tradition cannot be altered or influenced. You must
understand that there is no such thing as a new tradition, unless God
commands that new tradition through True Parents, not directly from God
to True Children. All children and the rest of the world must follow in
the wake of True Parents. There is no other way. The president of the
United States or any president of any country must tread this universal
path. This is the formula.
First of all, you must come into complete unity. Without uniting
your mind and body, you cannot make a building block for the Kingdom of
Heaven. Is this clear? (Clear.) Man and woman have to complete
individual unification of their mind and body first and foremost.
Otherwise, there is no way. Heaven cannot just spring up, even after
all the work which Father has accomplished. It is not Father saying
this, all of a sudden, but when Father began his dispensation he began
with this concept from the very first day. This is the sermon which
Father gave twenty years ago. What Father spoke twenty years ago and
what Father is speaking this morning is exactly the same. Father's
point is that tradition never changes or evolves. In Korea and now in
America also, Father is commanding that there be a standard way of
giving a lecture and sermon. The standard way of giving a lecture will
be introduced later in more detail, it is reading from the black book
which is color-coded. Read that off and that is a consistent Divine
Principle lecture. It is also very persuasive because you do not
introduce your own ideas at all. No matter how great a person is who
stands up to give a sermon, it is not good enough at this time of
urgency and in this time of saturation. Father has spoken on various
topics over forty years, and all future sermons will consist of reading
such sermons alternately.
All the formulas and blueprints are there of how to conduct your
family life and what to do. Father's sermons have been consistent
throughout these forty years. The Israelites must follow Jacob's route.
After returning to Canaan, they had to follow Moses' path. By the same
token, all of Christianity must follow Jesus' path. All Unificationists
must precisely follow the course of our True Parents, otherwise there
will be confusion. Christians never speak about what Jesus spoke.
Likewise, here in the Unification Church, we must pay utmost attention
to what Father has done so far for us. Do you understand? (Yes.) It is
like a formula and there is no substitute for the formula. The formula
is the formula. Just as Mother followed Father absolutely, so should
all women of the world follow Mother at this time. Children do not
follow their elder brother or their younger sister, but children follow
their Parents. The key to this is to follow with all of their might and
never separate from the path of Parents. That is it. When the nation is
built, then the blessing of inheritance will take place at that time.
Heaven will be inherited. From the family to the national level, we
must follow in Father's wake. For the sake of the unification of North
and South Korea, we all must sacrifice.
Please do not be confused by complicated thinking. Father has
re-indemnified in forty years the 4000 years of complicated works.
Father has to be truly precise in this. Likewise, we have to be precise
in our thought as to what to do in the next years in order to follow
True Parents' path. How can we achieve this gigantic work without being
able to control our own family? Should Mother fail in her role, it
would bring a lot of confusion to the rest of the world. In the same
way, if we as families fail it brings about confusion within all
families. Adam and Eve's failure to fulfill their role was serious
enough for God to expel them from the Garden of Eden. We must
understand that what Father has in mind and what Father commands us to
do is of such a strict order. The country has not come into existence
yet, therefore we cannot create the constitution. We have to behave
very seriously in conformity with Father's direction.
We have to truly be serious in following in True Parents' path.
Twenty years ago, Father clearly told us all what America needed to
fulfill. Now looking back on the last twenty years, Father has
accomplished all that he spoke twenty years ago. Now Father is going to
call upon Dr. Tyler Hendricks to read that same sermon to us now.
Father is urging True Children, who have the responsibility of making
sure that the world is saved. True Children are in Abel's position and
you are in Cain's position. After combining into one, then the world
can be unified.
[True Father will now listen, along with all of us, to the speech
that Dr. Hendrick's will read. Please read as fast as you can.]
(Laughter.) This is a prototype of how a Sunday service should be
given.
[Dr. Hendrick's reads from Central Figure of Victory given November
23, 1975, at the Unification Theological Seminary.]
Just as Father told us a few minutes ago, Mother is the center of
all of our activities and we must follow her. By the year 2000, we must
all cling onto Mother's effort towards humankind so much. Especially
after the successful education of Japanese women, 160,000 in all,
Mother now has the unswerving foundation in order to be recognized
throughout the world. We must bear in mind that this is Mother's time
and the countries of Japan, Germany and America will follow in Mother's
wake. Now Father expects Mother to focus on the unification of the
youth of North and South Korea. Father encourages Mother to work
wholeheartedly for that purpose. Father extends all the privileges to
Mother. In the absence of Father, Mother will take all the power of
Father and concrete this mission. That means that whenever Father is
not here, Mother is equivalent to Father. Wherever True Parents will
go, Mother will work on solidifying family units; not only Mother's own
family, but Mother will help us solidify our families also.
This is the beginning of a new era and we must prepare ourselves
mentally. We must pray to place Mother in our minds just as Father.
Once Father occupied all of our mind, but now it is Mother, as well as
Father, that must occupy our mind. Until now all of our love went to
Father, but now we have to place Mother in our hearts to the same
degree as Father, exactly the same level. American women especially
must give your full hearted support, and your lives for Mother. We are
proclaiming to the world that, while Father is first in the Unification
Church, Mother is most definitely not second officially. We should bear
that in mind. (Applause.)
[True Mother comes up to speak.]
Thank you for your support, and just as Father has commended us, the
True Children and you are in the Cain and Abel relationship. Therefore,
Mother expects us to unite with each other completely and follow in
Mother's wake. We will all then accomplish the task which is expected
by history and Heaven.
[True Father continues speaking.]
Centering upon Mother, Cain and Abel, we being Cain, Abel being True
Children, unite. Together then, united with Mother, we have the
qualification to step forward to Father and God in that order. It is
imperative that we become united first before we expect to be united
with Father and God. Do you follow? (Yes.) It is being restored and
going up to the original point. We have to have a clear concept to
begin with so that we can carry that into action. Without being clear
in our mind, then our action cannot be that clear either. The children
of each family must come into complete unity with the mother of their
respective families before they can return back to God and the
perfected world. That is a crucial role.
Husbands are in the position of archangel. Therefore, by them
becoming one with mother-centered unity, then they too can return to
Father. The mother of each family, together with children must step
forward to True Father and become one, and then they will be ready to
save their husbands. In that order because the position of all
husbands is that of archangel. The archangel must serve the woman who
represents God's queen. The children of the queen are the princes and
princesses of that queen and God's children. Do you understand?
Therefore, through serving them, then husbands too will become one with
God. Father can then give the Blessing. True Mother has the grand task
of bringing the Cain and Abel children of the world together before
stepping forward toward True Father.
This correct thinking needs to be firmly rooted in our minds before
the worldwide activity can be launched. All women are part of Mother.
From the individual level to God's level; all eight stages, we women
and Mother can become one. Father is now announcing and proclaiming
that, centering upon Mother, we should come forward and come around.
(Applause.)
Now let us give a half bow to both Father and Mother, and especially
to Mother.
