Can You Live Without Breathing?

Hoon Dok Hae
Peace Palace

This is an unofficial translation from the FFWPU Korean website.

Hoon Dok Hae on this day was held in the third-floor Hoon Dok Hall in the Cheon Jeong Gung with the Cheon Jeong Gung staff in attendance.

Can you live without breathing? Can you live without eating? The Word is more important than your work here at the Cheon Jeong Gung.

Do you love peace as much as Father does? Can you call yourselves children of True Parents if you do not?

Are you united with the Father’s blood lineage? At your age, Father couldn't even eat properly.

Today's soccer game is not only being broadcast on the earth. It is also being broadcast in the spirit world. For God to watch it, it has to be broadcast in the heavenly nation. You never heard about that, did you?

Do you know what Heaven is? You don't really know whether God exists or what kind of being He is. Realizing your limitations, you should become humble as members of the Unification Church. You have to learn. If you don't, you will die without knowing the truth.

You might die on the side of the road in a foreign land or you might get swept up in a flood. Eventually, our bodies will decompose; our bones and flesh will disappear. Even our heads will disappear. Did you know that? You will know this after you die. Our bodies are meant to disappear when we die so when that happens, we appear somewhere else as a brighter reborn being. A reborn being!

Therefore, you have to become one body through absolute faith, absolute love and absolute obedience. Then you should substantialize absolute faith, absolute love and absolute obedience. You might like to have fun and rest, but don't forget that your bodies will eventually rot and disappear.

Do you think you would enjoy cheating on your spouse? Just wait until you go to the spirit world. There are no secrets there. Take care that you are true in your love. Don't take advantage of your spouses. When two insects become one in love, they keep that position until they die. You should not allow yourselves to become worse than insects.

This is important to consider because your lineage comes out of your love and life. I'm sure that you want to have children who can be called sons and daughters of God. For that to happen, you must become owners of peace and owners of God's lineage. Because you have not become owners of peace or owners of God's lineage, Rev. Moon is here as God's representative to guide you. Therefore, you must accommodate yourselves to the word of Heaven so that you can set the right conditions. You have to realize that you are lacking when compared to God's ideal standard. Therefore, unless you always have an accommodating and humble mindset, you cannot stand in the position of being an object partner to God. You will end up disappearing. Without that kind of attitude, you will not have any relationship to Father.

From 5:20 am, Wonju McDevitt read the "Owner of Peace, Owner of Lineage" book from the foreword to the last page. The first sentence in the book is, "This is a precious message given by True Parents on July 7, 2009 in East Garden on the occasion of the anniversary of American Independence."
