TRUE GOD'S DAY

Translator - Peter Kim
By now everyone of you should be able to read what Father has
written and also understand it. What do you think this title is?
True God's Day. Repeat after me, Cham Hanna-nim-e Nal.
There was a time when even God's name was not restored. Now His
name has been restored and so we call this day True God's
Day. The time that God's name is restored means the time when
all of humankind should be restored. Then God's name could be
restored.
There are people who are still working for the restoration, and
other people who are restored. There is the origin of the universe,
which is God, then there is division and again union. [Father draws
on the board to illustrate] In communism they used "struggle"
instead of division. That is the interpretation given by the lord
of the fallen world. Origin, conflict and union. However, this
teaching here [indicating the board] is given by the Lord of the
Restored World; origin, division and union. This interpretation is
given in the restored world. If we apply this formula to our
individual level, then we can see that there is conflict between
our mind and body. When mind and body are united then union can
occur. [Father continues to draw on the board.] When an individual
is restored then certainly there is no conflict here.
Our mind and body are still in conflict. Because we are in the
fallen world, it is almost impossible to have complete unity between
mind and body. The conflict between the mind and body of Adam and
Eve has expanded to the national and worldwide level. Consequently,
human history has been laden with all manner of conflict and wars.
There is no peace, harmony and happiness. Where there is conflict,
there is always Satan-centeredness. Man and woman, as individuals,
experience conflict between their mind and body. Therefore, as
individuals with conflicts within themselves, how can they become
united?
The world is fallen and so we see conflict between leaders and
followers, parents and children, brothers and sisters. We see this
formula existing within the satanic world. In the Last Days we will
witness division at all levels of society. On the worldwide level,
we will see all manner of division. Like grains of sand, all divided
one from another, centered upon extreme individualism. This will
be rampant in the Last Days. People are declaring that they are
unable to believe in their family, their grandparents, their parents,
man and woman, their nation and the world. Therefore, individuals
end up becoming extremely individualistic. This comes from the
fallen Archangel. The cause was the fallen Archangel. Then once
we eliminate him, we can restore humankind.
Is America a Christian nation or a satanic nation? You Americans,
please answer Father. (Satanic) Then does that mean God left your
nation and Satan came in? Why? Because where there is conflict God
cannot dwell. The king of struggle is Satan and the king of peace
is God. Do you understand this notion? Therefore, all of mankind
is in need of restoration. However, the history of restoration
does not happen randomly; it follows a formula. What is the formula?
Before God created human beings what did He create? The environment.
What is the essence of the environment? Sun, air, water and earth.
These are the four major elements of the environment which are the
foundation for humankind to exist. Without these four major elements,
physical life cannot be sustained. In the environmental world there
is always subject and object relationship.
In order to prove this, we simply need to observe the world of
creation from the mineral world up to humankind. In the mineral
world there is plus and minus; in the plant world, stamen and
pistil; in the animal kingdom, male and female. In humankind there
is man and woman. Subject and object relationships exist at every
level. In terms of the sun, air, water and soil there are always
subject and object relationships operating. Without subject and
object relationships nothing can exist. But the reality of this
fallen world is that there is always conflict between subject and
object. Therefore, ideally speaking, they cannot exist. Eventually
this kind of world will be eradicated.
Within an individual there is mind and body, plus and minus, subject
and object. These should be in complete unity. However, due to the
Fall of Man, they have been in conflict. The body which is supposed
to be in the position of minus, acts as if it were plus. That is
why conflict always exists within the individual.
Satanic love came into play which caused the body to act as plus
instead of minus. The mind was originally in the position of plus,
but the body came into the position of opposing plus. That is why
conflict is always existing. Satan knew that originally this was
the formula. [Indicating to the diagram] This was the structure:
origin, division and union. However, Satan created his own formula
[indicating to the board] origin, struggle and union. Then, he used
this as a formula to keep all of humankind under his control.
This conflict between mind and body eventually has to be erased.
In the world of restoration, where the mind is plus and body is
minus, all will come into total unity. In this formula the natural
unity is existing where no interference from a third object is
accepted. Only plus and minus relationship. However, in the fallen
world formula, in order to make the subject and object one, there
should be the third force from outside influencing. That force has
been represented by the major religions throughout history.
Religions came to play a major role here in order to strengthen
the position of mind, which is in the position of plus, thereby
weakening the bodily force. Religion has been working hard to
eliminate this bodily force and bringing it to complete surrender.
Religions have been using two major tactics. First, by receiving
the spiritual power from God, religions strengthen the power of
mind and lead the minus force, which is the bodily desire, to follow
the mind. Second, by crushing the bodily desire to zero point, the
mind can have complete subjugation of the body. That is why religions
have always taught us to do that which the body hates most, such
as fasting, service to others, sacrifice and eventually becoming
an offering. When it comes to the concept of offering we are
referring to bloodshed. That is what the body hates the most. It
takes force in order to press the bodily desire down. At least
three to five years are needed in order to create the habit of
resisting the bodily desires. That is how we will be able to lead
humankind into the original state of being.
Communism is in the position of inheriting this satanic tactic
whereby Satan cheated God and humankind and dominated humankind.
Communism took over that particular tactic and tried to dominate
the entire world this way, against God's will. There are two
different time periods for God in terms of Restoration. The first
is that in which this fallen world has to be restored during the
course of restoration. The second time period for God is the time
after the providence of restoration is completed.
From the mineral kingdom to the animal kingdom, do we see them
fighting one another in order to become one between plus and minus?
No. There is always cooperation and natural harmony. The same is
true in the plant kingdom. There is no concept of conflict. Have
you seen animals launching wars against each other? Since this
entire universe exists in a pair system we see within our own body
the pair system operating within our five senses. We have two eyes.
Are they in conflict with each other? Are your two nostrils in
conflict? Are your lips in conflict? Are your hands in conflict?
They always become one harmoniously. Only when there is perfect
harmony between subject and object can they be supported and uplifted
by God.
Our two eyes represent God's attributes of plus and minus. When
our two eyes focus on one point then union occurs again. From God
we have two eyes, plus and minus, and by focusing on one point we
create union. This is the result. [Father draws on the board] Where
the origin and union meet this is the center point of this divided
position. This center point, where union comes up and origin comes
down, meet right in the center. That is how it can revolve and
circulate. Like give and take action between subject and object.
Once we realize that we have this conflict between our mind and
body, then we know that we have to deny ourselves. That is the
position we must take. If Satan is in the position of plus, the
fallen world that is centered upon bodily desire, is in the position
of minus.
When we are controlled by Satan, then together with him, we will
be in the position of struggle against the origin. Without the
Fall, God was supposed to be in the position of plus. The entire
universe created by God was supposed to be in the position of minus.
Then total oneness was to have taken place between them. However,
due to the Fall, humankind became minus to Satan in the position
of plus. However, the conscience still existed and has the ambition
to remain plus. That is the gateway that can lead humanity back to
God. Therefore, our conscience is working toward the bigger plus
and eventually connecting with God again.
We have to pray in order to eliminate satanic power. Once you become
totally one centered upon your conscience, then you can go beyond
Adam and Eve and Satan can be eliminated from your lives. This is
a special task. However, the normal strategy is that by believing
in religious faith you weaken your body. That is the way to
subjugate your body. No matter what you may think or do, without
having complete unity between mind and body we cannot return to
the original formula which is origin, division and union.
We must return to the original formula which God applied in order
to create the universe. Origin, division and union can occur only
based upon the complete unity between mind and body. How can union
occur? True Love. What is True Love? As we see from this formula,
after origin we always experience division, subject and object,
plus and minus, man and woman. How did this come about? Because of
God's plan. Why did He create this division? For the sake of love.
But what kind of love? Adam's love? Eve's love? or God's love? The
conclusion is that Adam's love alone cannot become united with
God's love. Eve's love alone cannot be united with God's love
either. The only way they can be united with God, as a substantial
manifestation of God's love, is for plus and minus from God to
become totally united to begin with, then based upon that unity
they can become united with God's love.
This right-hand side represents man and the left-hand side represents
woman. Even to secure this position of division as a man, there
are three stages: formation, growth and perfection. Then man can
assume this divided position as a perfected being, just as Adam
was supposed to pass through the growth period of formation, growth
and perfection. The same applies to woman. There should not be any
concept of conflict in man or woman. Upon the completion of unity
between mind and body, within man and woman, they then become one
again. The force of love is that which unites them.
How then does the power of love operate? What does it do? Man's
love organ is convex and woman's love organ is concave. You understand
this by now. This Chinese character written here [indicating to
the board] means harmonizing or becoming one. When this love between
man and woman unites do they grow more distant from each other, or
do they become totally one? (Closer) Not just closer, but this
power of uniting with one another actually infiltrates them and
goes beyond them. That kind of force and power is operating. This
uniting force will penetrate you as an individual and go beyond
you to the entire world and bring you both together in one embrace.
Do you understand what that means? It is a metaphor. However, the
uniting force is that strong. Indescribably strong.
Have you seen animals fighting with one another when they mate?
No. They become totally one with no space in between them. Blessed
couples, raise your hands. When you make love between husband and
wife, do you push one another further away, or do you draw one
another closer and squeeze tightly? (Squeeze more) Another way of
interpreting this formula of origin, division and union, is the
Origin which is God's position and can be interpreted as plus. The
union can be interpreted as man's position which is minus. Once
this union takes place, bringing absolute unity between husband
and wife, do you think that God is pulling this union toward Himself,
or is this union pulling God toward them, or they are repelling
one another? Which one? Does no one have the answer? When God sees
this perfect union taking place, don't you think that He would want
to draw that toward Himself? Don't you think the couple would also
want to pull God down toward them? It functions in such a way that
God will pull this united couple up as strongly as He can and the
couple will pull God down as strongly as they can. Therefore this
circular motion takes place.
In your love relationship as husband and wife do you want to just
sit and look at one another and smile? Or would you rather have a
love relationship that is so tight, so sweet, so strong that you
would become totally one like a rubber ball, and roll around
together? Once you become totally one and begin rolling together
like a round ball, when you roll too fast you will shout and scream
and God will hear you and come down and enjoy watching you. [Father
demonstratesj Interesting? Exciting? (Exciting)
Are you so excited that your five senses stop functioning? Caught
by complete suprise your entire bodily functions stop. After you
have heard Father's speech up until this point, and observed Father's
bodily expressions, do you understand the extent of excitement that
Father is talking about? (Yes) When you have that kind of love
relationship between husband and wife, do you think God will exist
among you and mingle with you, or will He remain outside and watch
you? God will stay right at the central core. Which is the most
enjoyable position, God's or man and woman's? (God's) Does that
mean that God participated in the love making action between husband
and wife? (Yes) If that is the case, then does the motivation and
origin of your love making come from God or man? (God) Universal,
sacred, core motivation. This is the ideal motive for the creation
of the universe.
Whose love are you borrowing and practicing when you make love?
(God's) Who is the owner of love? (God) Those people who are in
conflict can never become the owners of love. From the beginning,
this original base, which was supposed to begin the ideal love,
was stained and destroyed because of the Fall. Therefore in the
Last Days we have to destroy this satanic base and plant new love
there. Who do you think initiated love making first, God or man?
(God) Then to whom did Adam and Eve's marriage belong? (God) God's
dual characteristics of plus and minus, were manifested in man and
woman and originally formed union there. The plus characteristic
of God goes down toward the minus of the union. You can prove this
by observing man and woman when they are about to become one-man's
right hand usually touches woman's left hand. Woman's right hand
touches man's left hand because they are facing each other. That
is the way you become one.
In the Western world we find many left-handed people. However, in
the Orient, left-handed people are considered handicapped. Those
who are left-handed raise your hands. Don't be shy. The majority
of humanity are right-handed. Therefore, you left-handed individuals
can be considered handicapped. Why? This circular motion takes
place between man and woman when they hold each other's hands,
man's right hand woman's left hand. Wife's right hand and husband's
left hand. Then they hold hands and pull and push each other and
that is how rotation takes place. But if you are left-handed there
is no balance in doing that. Do you follow? We can conclude from
this particular example that left-handed people should be labeled
as handicapped.
In storing your clothes at home, please make sure that the wife's
garments are never on top of her husband's garments. When you make
love who takes the upper position? (Husband) Therefore, when you
hang up your garments, the wife's garments should always be
underneath, not on top. Do you American women understand? (Yes)
This is not Father's words; this is the principled way. Once you
know the truth then practice it from this day on. Even when you
place certain items on shelves in your home, do not place wife's
items on top of the husband's.
Suppose both husband and wife wake up at the same time in the
morning and both are in a hurry. Who should take the bathroom
first? (Laughter) Don't laugh. I'm teaching you divine law. Then,
according to divine law, who should take the bathroom first?
(Husband) Suppose he takes times and doesn't come out and you have
an emergency? (Laughter) Well, if he takes too much time, and the
wife has no way of stopping herself, then she may go into the
bathroom. If the toilet is still occupied then she can relieve
herself on the floor. Then if she makes the floor wet she can wash
the floor thoroughly afterward. Who is supposed to clean the floor?
Who wet the floor? (Laughter) Wife did, therefore she should clean
up. Women usually relieve themselves while sitting down. Then while
in this position can she shout at her husband and scold him for
taking too much time and order him to clean up the floor? Can she
say that? Those Blessed couples' husbands, you should never follow
your wives with dried rags to clean the floor. If you have practiced
such a life, you have to change it immediately.
Even while sleeping together as husband and wife, the wife is not
supposed to place her leg on top of her husband. A woman is like
a soft cushion, and so her husband can take advantage by placing
his bony leg on top of her and feeling comfortable. (Laughter)
Don't laugh too much. This is not a laughing matter. You have to
practice this in your daily lives. When Father had to come up with
all of these answers, imagine all of the complexity he had to deal
with. Actually, today's topic is True God's Day. However,
what Father is teaching you has nothing to do with True God's Day.
Rather, Father had to explain this aspect of life because the object
of your life should be an ideal object. In order to create an ideal
object, Father had to explain such details for you.
Once they become totally united here [indicating to the diagram]
then who is going to steal this union? God will try to pull this
union toward Him and man and woman will try to pull God to their
level. That makes the circular motion. From this formula we can
conclude that human marriage meets in the center to form the
wholeness of one another. Man alone is only half a human being.
Woman herself is only half a human being. But through marriage they
can form a whole human being. When man and woman first fall in
love, they begin from this smaller scale. As time passes and their
love relationship grows stronger, their scale grows and eventually,
in the center, they become one. Then each of their minds and bodies
will move like a piston back and forth with much vibration.
Horizontally, the two become closer and push their love force up
higher and higher, making it stronger and greater.
Since God's dual characteristics are plus and minus, His minus
characteristic comes down toward this level [indicating to the
diagram] while this plus characteristic of union will go up toward
God. God is the one who will prepare the ladder so that husband
and wife can climb up. When they reach this center then plus and
minus will collide and there will be an explosion. [Father writes
on the board] This will become the core and body and the circular
motion will take place. Man represents east. Woman represents west.
God represents up and down. This is the original place where Adam
and Eve, without the Fall, were supposed to meet together and form
this absolute union centered upon God's True Love. That is the
Principle.
If we were to press the relationship between man and woman and draw
them closer and closer together, because there is a certain amount
of room that has to be created, it will expand vertically, making
it higher and higher. When there is a totally airtight embrace,
with no space whatsoever for Satan, then God will come down and
stay in the middle. When they are hugging each other with all of
their strength, they are creating a pillar or axis between them,
centered upon that core, which is God. That is how the first love
should take place. Without the Fall, this is the place where Adam
and Eve were supposed to make love. However, no one has known this
throughout history. Dr. Rubenstein, famous theologian, do you agree?
Because of this relationship we can say that human beings are truly
the children of God. If God is the first generation, we can call
ourselves second generation God. First generation God is in the
subject position representing plus. The second generation God is
in the object position representing minus. It is natural and
automatic for plus and minus to combine into one. This is the divine
law.
Due to the Fall of Man this entire plan was destroyed. If there is
absolute love which God desired, and absolute love which man is
seeking, they should become totally one. Without the unity between
God's absolute standard, and the absolute standard which man is
seeking, there will be no absolute ideal world realized. The Fall
can be interpreted as two love pillars. That is why conflict always
exists. In your love relationship as husband and wife, do you want
two different kinds of love or one absolute love? One absolute
love, with one absolute direction. The direction is one and the
purpose is one.
Who is God? The original core love parents. God is an invisible
being. True Parents represent God's body. Even at this core meeting
point [indicating to the board] the vertical unity should occur
first. Then horizontal unity between Adam and Eve. Centered upon
True Love, God is in the position of the vertical True Parents of
humankind, and True Parents are in the position of horizontal True
Parents for humankind. Mind means vertical self. Body means
horizontal self. Buddhism is always trying to find out what is
Mind. But Father is giving you the clear answer here. Our mind is
our vertical self and our body our horizontal self. Mind seeks the
higher position. Our body seeks horizontally toward satanic desire
and ambition. Religions always emphasize disciplining our bodily
desires in order to enhance our spirituality.
The Western culture, which has been pursuing material, has become
like an animal world. Whereas the Oriental culture which has been
pursuing spirituality, has become a more noble world. Westerners
greet one another by shaking hands horizontally, whereas Orientals
greet one another vertically by bowing down. Many Westerners sleep
on the stomach. Raise your hand if you sleep on your stomach. In
the Orient, those who sleep on the stomach may be considered
animalistic. Because cows and other animals always sleep on their
stomachs. No matter how smart any animal may be, there is no animal
which sleeps on its back exposing its stomach. Only human beings
have this privilege. Human beings lay on their back and stretch
out their arms and legs. This is the position to welcome God,
telling Him to please come down and be embraced by you. When you
sleep on your stomach and kick your legs like this [Father
demonstrates] no matter how hard you may kick, God cannot come
down, because you are turning your back against God. It is the
position in which animals search for their food.
There are many people who constantly eat. They eat while walking,
while talking, even while sleeping. It is like animals. As soon
as animals secure a certain amount of food they keep it in their
mouth and try to run away from other animals to eat it. While still
running they eat. But human beings are supposed to have a nice
table in front of them with nice china and enjoy their meal. As
you take each mouthful of food you have to thank God and invite
Him to taste it with you. This meal table can be like an altar upon
which we make our offering.
Considering all of these different aspects of life, where do you
think that the Lord of the Second Advent should come from, the
Western world or the Oriental world? (Oriental world) What Father
is telling you is not a joke, it is based upon reality. What is
the meaning of True God's Day? This is the day that God gets married.
How about that! (Applause) How can the day of God's marriage take
place? The original unfallen perfected man and woman appear in this
world and establish the foundation for the ideal family, ideal
tribe, ideal nation and ideal world which will eventually become
the Kingdom of God on Earth. When that true perfected couple
appears as the Lord of the Second Advent, that will be the time.
Through their marriage, God's marriage can be achieved. (Applause)
When it comes to the perfection of God's ideal, God is in the
position of subject. Without having God's perfection as the subject,
there is no perfection of God's ideal. When you give your genuine
love to your spouse in your love making relationship, then as a
second God you are practicing love in the place of God. God will
come down and enjoy participating in your love making when there
is a genuine love relationship. Eventually this will expand to the
family level, tribal level, national level and worldwide level.
We have both visible and invisible love making organs. At the Fall,
Satan's invisible sexual organ invaded human beings' visible sexual
organ. Through this, all the destructive social evil has taken
place. Satan uses all kinds of methods in order to destroy the
original love relationship and to prevent human beings from returning
to God eternally.
It is the mission of humanity to restore this fallen world back to
God. How far do you feel that God is from you? Where is God? When
Father explains this truth, some theologians stand up and protest
that God does not need a partner. True Love is absolute. Therefore,
even the Absolute God will bow down before True Love.
Without love there is no way to connect with life, blood lineage,
and conscience. The first motivation is True Love. The characteristic
of True Love is to live for the sake of others. True Love gives
without ceasing and without remembering. This continuous giving
creates a circular movement. True Love is invisible. The dual
characteristics of God began with giving, investing, not with
receiving. God's True Love motivation is to give eternally. Do you
understand?
Father will explain whether God needs a partner or not. Please keep
count of the times you blink. After three hours you will become
dizzy. Normally, do we feel our eyes blinking? But if someone else
comes and touches even one strand of our hair immediately we feel
some vibration. However, in one blink of the eye hundreds of eye
lashes are moving and water is spreading over your eye but you are
not so aware of it. Why? Because there is perfect balance in that
action. There are more than forty billion cells within the human
body and yet we don't feel any separation one from another. Because
they are in perfect balance. But as soon as there is a breakdown
in the balance we feel agony and pain. If there is imbalance within
your bodily structure, the universal force tries to push it out.
Therefore you experience pain. The universal force only protects
when there is absolute unity between subject and object.
Where there is harmony there is development, but where there is
division there is no development. When there is absolute unity
between subject and object it will always be protected by the
universal force. Father says that we call this heavenly fate.
However, where there is imbalance and disunity, there is no
protection. As long as there is disunity between your mind and body
you will keep going down. But once you become totally united in
mind and body then you will go up and progress. Once there is total
unity and balance between mind and body they will push one another
upward. Up higher toward progress and prosperity.
Father is holding a small towel between his two palms, and even if
it were heavy metal, when there is absolute balance between the
two hands the weight cannot be felt so much. When you go to the
bathroom in the morning do you wear a mask because of the smell
you make? You don't wear a mask because you don't feel that it is
dirty? But if someone else goes to the toilet you immediately smell
their waste. But you don't smell your own waste. Sometimes you even
analyze it according to the difference in smell, what kind of food
you ate the night before. Why don't we feel that it is dirty?
Because it is totally one with us. Do you feel that your saliva is
dirty? (No) How about someone else's? Chemically it is probably
the same. Then why don't you feel that your own saliva is dirty?
Because it is totally one with you.
When you eat breakfast, lunch and dinner do you eat only in a good
mood or in a sad mood? Which would you prefer? (Good mood) We can
interpret our eating habits as providing material to create fertilizer
in our stomachs. Therefore we keep eating three meals a day. How
about that? It is a fact. Would you feel good about eating your
meal with that thought? Don't forget that your own fertilizer
factory is only one foot away from your mouth. Is that true or not?
(True) Have you really thought about the existence of this fertilizer
factory right underneath your mouth while you are eating. No. We
just enjoy eating. We don't feel the existence of this fertilizer
factory within us because it is one with us.
Raise your right hand. Place your hand on your left chest. What do
you feel? Of course you feel your heart beat. If you check your
heart beat with a stethoscope it sounds like a bomb exploding. Yet
how many times do you feel your heart beating during the day? Not
to feel it for one week is very normal. Yet some busy people don't
feel their heart beating for one year. It is still normal. It is
like a piston pumping inside of you so why don't you feel it?
(Because it is one with us) There is perfect balance and oneness
there. This is reality.
You all have love. Have you seen love? Is love tangible? (No) Do
you have life? (Yes) Have you seen and touched it? (No) We all have
lineage which provides the seed of life. Sperm and eggs. Can we
see it? Only when there is love making action between husband and
wife will this life seed come to play a role. Other than that we
cannot see it. Have you seen your conscience? Have you touched it?
But in fact we have all of these. Then why don't we feel them?
Because they are inseparably one with us.
It is absolutely true that love, life, lineage and conscience exist
within ourselves. However, we don't feel their existence because
they are one with us. They are ourselves. Then where is God? It is
true that God is the root of love, life, lineage and conscience.
God is stationed at the bottom of the root of love, root of life,
root of lineage and root of conscience. God exists there but why
don't we feel Him? Because God is completely one with us along with
our love, life, lineage and conscience. Therefore we don't feel
God. If you want to find God, centering upon true love, give away
all that you have-love, life, lineage and conscience-to other
people, then God will surface.
Offering your love, life, lineage and conscience for the sake of
others you will then fall into the position of zero. When you reach
zero point you will find God. If this vertically hidden God can be
found through offering your sacrificial love, life, lineage and
conscience, then horizontally you can make God the center of your
love, life, lineage and conscience. Then the subject of love,
life, lineage and conscience will be God. Centered upon this harmony,
peace, freedom, unification and happiness will all come about. In
such a world we don't need religion. When you pray don't look up
in the sky for God. God is deep within yourself. Therefore you have
to look deeply within yourself and ask yourself to form such a
degree of love, life, lineage and conscience, like God.
Since conscience belongs to God, it precedes your parents. You are
not the owner of conscience. It belongs to God. God stands in the
position of the original parent and He is the teacher of all
teachers. Yet your conscience precedes God. Your conscience is
the owner of all owners. Since your conscience belongs to God, we
can say that your conscience is the master owner. If we may say
that America is owned by the President, then your conscience precedes
the American President and all kings. Therefore, we should conclude
that conscience is the most precious gift from God which is more
valuable than your parents, more valuable than your teachers and
more precious than anything in the whole world. God Himself came
into yourself and exists as your conscience.
If, from the beginning of human history, all human beings were
educated to respect and follow their conscience more than their
parents and kings and queens, then the Fall would never have
happened. This is the way that humankind can inherit God's attributes.
Our ancestors did not know this. Because of the ignorance of not
understanding the value and the function of conscience, our ancestors
were invaded by Satan and the Fall took place. We must know that
the love we have within ourselves belongs to God. It is logical to
conclude that because of the foundation of having love, life,
lineage and conscience upon which God can dwell, it is possible to
build an ideal family and eventually ideal nation. Your sexual
organ does not belong to you. Your love, life, lineage and conscience
do not belong to you. They belong to the universe and to God.
Your love, life, lineage and conscience are like the leaves and
branches of the tree. Since God is in the position of the tree,
they have the same value as God. If we were to cut off a small
twig and put it in the ground, another tree can grow. Do you
understand? We are second God. What can qualify us to become second
God? Our conscience. Your conscience knows everything about you
even before God. No matter how insignificant a thing you may do,
if you are doing something wrong, your conscience will immediately
tell you not to do that. But if you listen to your conscience, even
to the smallest degree of advice, then there will be no Fall. You
will automatically enter into the Kingdom of God. However, we don't
listen. We go against the advice of our conscience and all manner
of social evil is rampant.
Do you think there is any detail of your life that your conscience
is unaware of? Can you cheat your own conscience? Your conscience
knows all of your secrets. Your conscience knows what is the right
way and what is the wrong way to use the function of your entire
five senses. There is no exception. Those who have confidence that
your conscience does not know what you have been doing in your
life, raise your hands. Your conscience has a special machine which
video tapes every aspect of your entire life. When you enter the
spirit world there is a machine which shows you the entire spectrum
of your life. You will see everything. Even though you may have
forgotten about it. Even man-made computers are so incredible in
their function. However, don't you think God's computer would be
millions of times superior to the man-made computer? Therefore
everything is recorded intact.
As long as you have your conscience antenna high up you will be
able to discover all the universal secrets. That is the way Reverend
Moon found out this truth. Consult with your conscience before
doing anything. Your conscience is the absolute standard. It is
your God-made computer. Therefore, when you consult with your
conscience in whatever you need to do and follow the direction of
your conscience, you will not have to worry about your afterlife.
You will automatically enter into the Kingdom of Heaven by following
your conscience.
In your life, if you find yourself stuck and in some difficulty,
then focus internally and ask your conscience what to do. Then your
conscience will lead you to find your direction. At first it may
show as a kind of blurry image, but as you continue to train yourself
you will be able to see more clearly in what direction you have to
go. When you completely liberate your conscience and subjugate your
bodily desire then whomever you meet you will be able to discern
who has a good thought and who has an evil thought. Therefore your
conscience is the teacher of all teachers. Even your parents may
abuse and manipulate you as their child, but your conscience will
never betray you. Your conscience is the most precious thing in
all the world. Yet you have not realized this. No matter how close
a friend you might have, if that friend tries to lead you in a
certain way and your conscience tells you no, then don't go.
Your conscience never tells you to violate laws. Let us make a
proclamation all together. Conscience precedes parents. (Conscience
precedes parents) Conscience precedes teacher. (Conscience precedes
teacher) Conscience precedes owner. (Conscience precedes owner) By
owner we mean whoever is in charge, such as the head of state.
Conscience is positioned above all of the constitutions and all of
the laws of the secular world. Therefore, as long as you remain
with the direction of the conscience you will end up in the Kingdom
of Heaven. From now on, let us raise our conscience up to a higher
level. Your conscience teaches you to work harder than anyone else.
How can we become the owner of love, life, lineage and conscience?
The only way to accomplish this is to resemble God, offering and
investing yourself for all eternity, never remembering what you
have invested. Live your life for the sake of others, just as God
has been doing. That is the only way to become the owner of your
love, life, lineage and conscience. Otherwise you will remain as
a caretaker.
When we reach the ownership stage, at that moment God will appear
as the vertical owner of your love, life, lineage and conscience.
Only when this takes place will you find peace, freedom, unification,
love and happiness. Then your dream can be realized. In this secular
world everyone has their dream. However, their dreams are stained
by Satan. We have the obligation to seek those young people who
are seeking after such dreams and turn them around 180 degrees and
have them find their real dream. Amen.
There is one thing more valuable than your conscience and that is
your blood lineage, and your life, which your received from your
parents, is higher than your blood lineage. Ultimately the most
valuable thing is love itself.
Why do we have to obey our conscience? Because this is the only
way that we will be able to inherit the ideal lineage of God, ideal
life from God and ideal True Love from God. Then we can claim
ourselves as the second God and discover real peace, real freedom,
real unification and real happiness.
Even though you have love, life, lineage and conscience, man alone
is unable to feel these qualities. Same goes for woman. Who are
they resembling? God. We must understand that even though God is
the root and king of every existence, when He is alone, without
His partner, He is unable to feel these elements. Human beings are
the same way. Do you agree?
What is the highest value of truth for man and woman? Partnership.
We absolutely need our partner. Does God need His partner? (Yes)
Then who is in the position of God's partner? (Man and woman) What
kind of man and woman? (Perfect man and perfect woman) We have to
know that God has not been liberated in front of love. He has not
realized the perfection of love yet. Therefore God cannot practice
freedom because of this imperfection. Through man and woman, God
was supposed to perfect His love ideal. Yet man and woman fell.
God could not reach the perfection of love. No one has known this
throughout history. Our families, husband and wife, are of the
highest value and can liberate God. We are in the position to bring
true love from God and create true love in front of God.
As Father taught you this morning, marriage can be interpreted as
half a human being bride and half a human being bridegroom joining
together and creating a whole human being. By doing so they become
an ideal object of God. That is the purpose of man and woman, and
centering upon True Love, liberating man and woman. That is the
way we can perfect and liberate God. The meaning of marriage is
conquering our spouse's world and conquering God. That is why
marriage is more precious than anything else. Marriages in the
satanic world are not as precious as your marriage. Realizing what
kind of ideal value our families have, and knowing how our families
can become the ideal object of God's True Love, yet still we have
betrayed God so many times. Therefore, we have to be made fully
aware of this value again. Man is born for the sake of woman and
woman is born for the sake of man.
Woman's love organ is for the sake of man. Man's love organ is
for the sake of woman. Husband and wife are able to become one
through True Love from God. True Love means we have to serve God
as our center, not Satan. When there is love making action, we
should do so with God together. Since God is an absolute being He
wants an absolute object. He does not want a temporary or conditional
object. Therefore, can we think of the concept of divorce? (NO)
Adam and Eve were not supposed to have many different step fathers
and mothers. Humanity should not know this reality. When children
have more step mothers and fathers it means that the heart of
children will have more holes. Incurable holes in their hearts.
That is what is happening in America. Therefore America is doomed
to perish. If America resists, we have to kick it. Don't be proud
of being American. God has left America. The only hope for this
country is that Reverend Moon remains here. Therefore God still
holds onto America. (Applause)
If anyone is confident that America is not going down the drain
then prove it. Father will challenge your proof. Do you think that
God needs His love partner? You haven't believed it up until now.
How long will it take? If you wait too long you will go to spirit
world. The scholars have the tendency to give all kinds of excuses.
That is one aspect of scholars that I don't like. Reverend Moon
has met thousands of those so-called VIPs throughout the world who
have promised many things. However, many of them just quietly
disappeared without fulfilling their promise.
God is an absolute being. Yet when there is absolute love, God will
bow down before it. Because of the fact that people believe that
God is absolute, yet they abuse that very notion, there has been
much bloodshed throughout human history as a consequence. Even
Christianity abused that notion and killed thousands of people for
their own sakes. Like the battle between Catholicism and Protestantism
in the Reformation. They both claimed to be on God's side. But
God's love is for the sake of others. Because of this love we have
hope that eventually humankind can be restored.
We should know the meaning of True God's Day. In order
to perfect God to become the absolute God, we need True Parents.
True Parents come with all the truth needed to perfect God. Also
True Parents come to liberate God along with us. When we become
united on the family level that is where we can find peace, freedom,
unification and happiness. Blessed couples, raise your hands.
Remember, as a Blessed couple you need to keep in mind what kind
of life True Parents have lived up until now. If God is in the
position of the first God and True Parents are in the position of
the second God, then Blessed couples should place themselves in
the position of third God and follow True Parents' footsteps, so
that we can eventually resemble God and True Parents.
God being invisible Parent as plus and True Parents being visible
Parents as minus become totally one. Upon this foundation, we in
the position of minus to True Parents become one with True Parents.
Then without actually dealing with God directly we can be united
with God. Only through True Parents can we be reborn and united
with God. This is our mission. It is now the time when we have to
proclaim ourselves. We have to pledge to God and True Parents that
our family is the very foundation upon which we can build an ideal
family and become the third God. Through True Parents we can be
united with God, which eventually will lead to the Kingdom of Heaven
on Earth. Those who are determined and confident to fulfill that
mission, raise both hands to God and True Parents. Beautiful hands.
God bless you.
