Sun Myung Moon

Didn't I forgive the saints and even murderers? Then, can I or can I not forgive the sins of my own children? Stalin and Hitler killed millions of people. I even forgave and blessed such demons of all demons. Unless I could do so, I would not be able to open the gates of hell. Was it good, that I did that? Buddhists living on earth are exclaiming, "Good God! He took our Buddha and married him! How could he do that?" While others are saying, "Oh dear, he married Jesus!" When you go to the spirit world you will see that these leaders are all in paradise. They are in the middle realm of the spirit world.
I asked those religious leaders in spirit world, "What is it that you want?" Then they beseeched me, "It is what you desire. Hence, our wish is simple. We would like you to bless us." So I asked them, "What is going to happen if I bless you?" and they answered, "The gates of hell will be opened. Since there is presently no way to reach heaven, we will have the strength and confidence to do our best ten times more to turn this world around, bring it into unity and even lead the saints."
If you can make such a confident determination and turn yourself around, then, even when villains who opposed God come to the spirit world, they can also be reformed into exemplary loyal servants that God can use – just as when God raised up Saint Paul, who had strongly persecuted Christianity, to become one of His most loyal servants.

If I did not know about the spirit world, I could not have gone on this path. The Father in the spirit world is my father. That is why I know the secrets of the spirit world more than anyone else. When I became hungry during the Korean War, as I sought refuge, I mobilized ancestors in the spirit world. They would make people prepare a meal for passing visitors on the street, and through this I was able to eat many times. There are many stories like this that may sound like lies, so I do not talk about them. Why should an intelligent person like me, who studied science, tell such unbelievable stories? You would believe such logically unbelievable stories if they came from me, wouldn't you?
