We have to do three kinds of campaigns from now on. First, collecting membership forms; next, displaying pictures of True Parents and finally raising of the church flag. We have to do all three. When we do these three things, we can do anything. The flag represents the Unification Church, and the photographs represent True Parents. Next, the membership form means registration. A nation in which we can register will appear. From there on, a new beginning can be made. To attend True Parents means that your home has become one with True Parents. Then, what does the flag mean? It represents something in one's surroundings that signifies the worldwide members of the Unification Church. It signifies relationships. The flag represents you as an individual, but it also represents the husband and wife. It represents our families, but it also represents our tribes and our nations. It represents the entire Unification Church and all humankind.
You really must raise the flag. When you put up the flag, the same situation will occur as when the Israelites were leaving Egypt, when the first born of all the Egyptians were killed. The Israelites avoided death for their first born and survived by putting lamb's blood on their doors. It is just like that. When the Israelites were bitten by snakes and dying, while wandering in the wilderness under Moses, those who looked at the bronze serpent lived, didn't they? Likewise, when the satanic world was going to ruin, those who believed in Jesus lived.
On this earth, in order to take back all the authority Satan has had, you just have to raise the flag, hang up a picture of True Parents and register. This will change your affiliation. Thus, what I am especially emphasizing in our movement is to display True Parents' pictures and raise the flag. It has already been three years. I started this campaign because I knew that such a time would come. This is why I am asking you to have people fill out membership application forms. When you receive the membership forms, greet those who sign them, saying, "Please do well." Satan will not receive salvation unless he submits to Adam. The next step is to attend the Parents.
Until now you have not been able to attend True Parents, but you should attend them. You should put True Parents' pictures in the best place, a better place than for the pictures of your mother, father, or ancestors. It is good to value the pictures of your grandfather and mother, but you should not put up your parents' pictures first and then put True Parents' pictures next to them. True Parents are the ancestors. You establish the ancestors through this and you will be able to turn from the two-dimensional family foundation to the foundation of God's tradition. There, you will have no relationship with Satan. This is how the Principle is.
The tribal messiah is not a mission for some people that others do not have to do. If you do not do it, your whole family and all your relatives will be in trouble. If the descendants do not do it on this earth, the ancestors in the other world will curse them several hundred times more than they did Adam and Eve who fell. I cannot take responsibility for this. I cannot stop them from accusing you. You will be accused if you do not do it. You have to fulfill the five percent responsibility given to human beings. If you cannot do it, there will be no perfection.
