Note: These notes are taken from a Peace TV video clip. They cannot be published as definitive texts and should never be used in the future as an "official" publication of True Father's words. However, they do provide a good idea of the "spirit" of the message. -- Rev. Katsumi Kambashi

"It is the 'Firm Settlement of the True Parents of Heaven, Earth and Humankind.' Then the 'Proclamation of the Word of God.' Which comes first, the substance or the word of God? The substance comes first. No one can deny it."

"The number 11 is the problem. Five oceans and six continents. Prior to the fall, which took place in February when Adam was 17 years old, they knew (the order of) 동서남북 (east, west, north and south)."

"Why are there the Old Testament and the New Testament? It is because the tradition has been separate, and they didn't know the God of Night and the God of Day."

"When did the God of Night and the God of Day become separate? It was in February when Adam and Eve were 17 years old."

"The amazing thing about the Unification Church is that we have one blood lineage and that makes tradition."

"The 'Firm Settlement of the True Parents of Heaven, Earth, and Humankind' is the conclusive essence (결론적 핵심) of my speeches."

"What tradition are we talking about? It is the tradition of the Creator Who created the cosmos with the principle of subject and object partners on the base of true love."

(Holding Shin Pyeon Nim in his arms) "I get crazy with the word 하나님 (God). I don't know anything but that, and I've come this far. Shin Pyeon will do the same."
