Report from Korea
Unofficial notes
This is the time for National Messiahs to take responsibility. Opportunities pass, so this opportunity must be grasped by the National Messiahs. We will mobilize the spirit and angelic worlds, so that unimaginable things will take place. National Messiahs can mobilize these forces, since they are in the position of ambassadors of True Parents. They are in the position of True Parents for their country. They have to have a connection through good ancestors to be able to mobilize the spirit world. The National Messiahs have a position that is higher than that of the leaders of the nation they are assigned to.
This is the age of instant indemnity. If you make mistakes, your family will suffer. For God to work in your country you should be a master of recreation. Pay attention to people at lower levels of society. They tend to be more honest. If you block the blessing, National Messiahs and members will pay. The National Messiah is so important that if he does well or not will affect the nation. The National Messiahs should make more conditions and make more effort than the religious leaders of their countries do.
God is the master of absolute faith and belief in His own world. God made all things through love, and all things have been waiting to meet their rightful owner. You should be the owner, for love. You should seek to make your objects greater than you. You have to believe with a heart of love. You have to obey with a heart of love. Love is greater than faith and obedience. Faith and obedience lay the foundation for love. If someone has good merit, with one mistake this can be erased.
The proclamation of cosmic rest is good condition. All have to bow their heads in front of it, including God. You can go to heaven if you are grateful all the time. I cannot deny my blood relationship with you. You can do what I ask, and go where I go. Members are connected to True Parents through the blessing. Men and women go into circular movement as they become one.
You have to feel as if your country was your own body. Were you blessed by force of from your own desire? You were drawn to the Unification Church. You should make a condition of harmony; brothers and sisters should be reconciled first. If you ignore this, you must pay. For example, if a wife is betrayed by her husband and goes to the spirit world with resentment, the husband must pay for that. You have to make a new beginning for your family and your nation, otherwise you and your nation will be ruined. You must leave behind old habits.
America did not develop in the providence because the leaders there had the attitude of "you must obey me". The US also sucked money from Japan.
I made all the conditions for you. If you do not make matching conditions you will be accused. There are many in the Unification Church who went against me and died a miserable death.
Only the parents of heaven and earth should rest, because they have made all the conditions to do so. The king must be at the level of the poorest people. Without suffering cannot pay indemnity. When you go to South America as a National Messiah you must be South American, not Korean. You should visit suffering people and poor people. If you have money, don't think about using it for your family and yourself. Think about using it for the nation. If you have no money, God will fill your wallet. It is amazing how this works.
Love flows to a world of peace and love. We want to become the object of God, to become perfect. The mind and body must become one, a unified pair; likewise husband and wife. If husband and wife can't become one, they can't go to the world peace, the level plain. You have to love even if you die three times.
Without vertical love, you cannot be one on the horizontal level. Your orientation has to be from the vertical. Only a 90 degree angle takes you to God. Anything else leads to Satan. As husband and wife, you are free to do whatever you want. In the act of love, if the husband is vertical, the wife can turn 360 degrees.
Faces with a nose bent to the left usually belong to a liar, whereas a twisted mouth usually implies susceptibility to disease. The body should be balanced. Shoes should wear out evenly. In the world of true love, vertical and horizontal oneness will expand.
To National Messiahs:
Don't get into arguments;
Don't claim everything for yourself;
Pray to find good people, more capable than yourself;
You have to fulfill your mission even if you die;
You have to really invest yourself;
You have to give and give and give again so Satan cannot accuse you;
If you need money, you should take loans if necessary;
You have to be willing to die for God's will;
You have to bring heaven and earth together;
Don't turn our good foundation upside-down.
My resentment is that I could not give more.
Be willing to support your continental director. If he does more for your country than you do, then it becomes his responsibility. You are parents for your nation, so you cannot fight. You have to raise your members. If you keep them for your own projects, you will be destroyed.
True Father then established prizes for the four top nations: Korea $400,000, Philippines $300,000, Nigeria $200,000, Ghana $100,000. He said: I would like to give $100 million.
In the next 8 months do 36 Million Couples; then 19 months after that do 360 Million (by January 2001). True Father to Japanese members: Indemnity should be paid by women. Japan as the Eve nation should solve the money problems of the world. The resentment of women is that there are no true men, only Archangels. Japan was made Eve in order to restore women, because Satan claimed the world through a woman. By reclaiming women we can reclaim all from Satan.
In the expansion of the blessing providence, after the 3.6 Million Blessing was achieved the path of blessing expansion is no longer uphill. It now goes down hill, such that the providence for the blessing should expand very rapidly. The reason for this is that God now has the way to claim authority, and all Satan has will be destroyed. Only the Cain realm can be destroyed because there is a condition to project the Abel realm.
We have gone beyond the tribe level in the blessings, therefore members can go to other countries to win their own 160 couples. Families from different nations should live together in a condominium style home. Korean is the language that should be used by the families from different countries. The 160 people represent around seven generations, hence restoring 160 couples represents restoring seven generations of your family. Please make money and give it to me, I will give it to the nations in need.
If we don't go strongly the way of indemnity, Satan does not back off. True Mother has toured Korea three times, and Korea has now won first prize (for blessings). Therefore Korea has qualified as the homeland of faith.
Don't be someone who cuts down the leader. Just do your own mission. Do you have the Hari Kiri spirit? Because you do not you are not succeeding.
True Father then gave the official instructions. Highlights:
1. About the proclamation: We must cross 12 peaks on the path of blessing. Those ahead are the 36 and 360 Million Couples. Once 3.6 Billion is reached, heaven will come down on earth.
II, Establish the right to settle as a family. Mind and body must be one; husband and wife must be one; parents and children must be one. All family members must be one in heart. You must educate your tribe. Be a model for it.
III. This is the age to restore kingship: family and tribe have to become one. Internal and external relations must become one. We have to train people how to love nature.
IV. Begin to educate all federation in your country. National education must be global in perspective. All families must get a worldwide viewpoint. We must educate the elderly.
V. Make an airplane company in 185 countries. This will be complimentary to the new newspaper providence. Form an advisory board for the newspaper. Connect to martial arts and cultural people in your country. Make a federation of universities. Make a federation for high school students, and one for elementary students as well.
True Father to Japanese:
Because you can't make the money I need I can't do what is necessary to restore the world.
Chung Hwan Kwak's Points
There will be the holy wedding of Young Jin Nim and Hyung Jin Nim on September 5 in New York. After the Japanese sisters win 180 couples in their mission country, they should return to Japan to do the same with Japanese couples. However, they must coordinate with their central figures. Chung Hwan Kwak said he would talk to True Father about what the ideal time would be for their mission in their country. When the sisters return to Japan, they should return to the organization they left, either the Unification Church, Buddhist group or Korean Unification Church. When they return to Japan, the sisters will be under a Japanese leader.
We must follow the proper procedures for getting and keeping visas. The Japanese foreign ministry has become very negative due to several abuses of the normal procedures for getting and renewing visas. The impression we have made is that we do not follow rules.
Chung Hwan Kwak also mentioned that National Messiahs should respect the system set up by True Parents. They should go through the continental director as necessary, The person who is the Continental Director is not important; the structure or system itself is important. You should inform the Continental Director and WMD [World Mission Department] if you leave your country.
There are 6000 Japanese sisters that have been assigned to go to mission countries, but only 340 have gone so far. Generally, their leaders are asking them to stay until certain pressing obligations have been met. Once the sisters have fulfilled their goals they are free to go to their mission. Korean National Messiahs should not seek to press the sisters to go before they are released by their Japanese central figures. Please understand that because of True Father's heavy demands on Japan it is very difficult for the Japanese leaders to meet all their obligations.
The Japanese sisters who have already completed three years in their mission country should continue there to help the new sisters find their way. After three years they have learned the language and become useful, so True Father wants them to continue. Also the three years should be calculated as time spent in the country, not just time assigned to the country. Internally, the Japanese sisters who are posted for the WFWP represent the FFWP and True Parents.
In Japan the system of financial responsibility for the blessing is somewhat changed. it is no longer the responsibility of the person giving the blessing (Spiritual Parent) to make sure that the blessed couple pays the donation; rather the couple itself is responsible. Under the old system, because the donation was set at such a high level, it was actually a disincentive for members to give the blessing.
National Messiahs should act wisely, according to the situations they find in their countries. Thus, whether they should live together in the same home, for example, depends on the situation in their country.
The level or standard of the pre-blessing varies a lot from country to country. In general, do the best you can, giving as much education as possible and completing the condition as fully as possible. The basic education for blessed couples is the three speeches True Father has given recently, and which have been published as a set, and the family pledge. However, one cannot follow a strict interpretation of the rules in this age. True Father dares Satan to challenge him. He has the foundation to give the blessing in any way he sees fit.
On November 29, the ceremony will be broadcast at 10 am Washington time. Other participants will have to adjust their schedules to be able to participate at the same time. However, Chung Hwan Kwak believes there will be a dispensation for the blessing to be extended for a certain period. A new satellite is being studied for use this time. Depending on the local legal and social situation, you can change the name of HSA to FFWPU in your country.
Reports:
CIS and China: Dr. [Joon Ho] Seuk, Continental Director for CIS
The blessing has expanded rapidly recently, and several countries are interested. In China, we have now published a textbook based on True Father's teaching, which is being used widely. Since missionary movements are not allowed in China, this is a good opportunity for us to offer a system of ethics and morality for Chinese society.
Russia: Mrs. [Hyun Shil] Kang, National Messiah for Russia
She said that the goal seemed impossible at first, but the members really put everything on the line and worked day and night to do the blessings. After a while, the whole situation opened up and the numbers began to increase rapidly, with many miracles occurring.
USA: Joong Hyun Park [Pak], Continental Director
Mr. Park has reported many breakthroughs in the US regarding the pre-blessing. In particular, a number of religious groups and Christian denominations have come to embrace the blessing, and their leaders are now taking the initiative to spread the blessing to their members. Among these, is a large Baptist denomination, the church of Al Sharpton, a prominent New York activist and recent mayoral candidate there, Louis Farrakhan, leader of the Nation of Islam, and others. Even 10 Indian chiefs have been blessed.
