The Christmas English Speech Exhibition
To regional presidents and international itinerant workers
Cheon Jeong Gung
When did the Mayan calendar end? You all know that this is indeed the Last Days, don't you? Where can we find trust in the Last Days? Hyung Jin just explained about absolute sex, but the world has become a place where people do not trust one another. Parents cannot trust their children and vice versa. This is the crisis of these times.
What I want to talk about is based on the fact that we all know now what True Father's mission is. The question arises: Do you now stand in the position of loyal patriots or filial sons and daughters to True Parents? It is only in a crisis that one can truly be said to be a filial child or a loyal patriot. Anyone can be filial or loyal in times of peace, because they have no trouble living by the law. Isn't that true?
Who is truly a child of filial piety in this era?
Only a few days remain until Foundation Day. What will we do after that? If you are a true filial child or a true loyal patriot, you will know what our Heavenly Father wishes. If you know what His wish is, you need to translate it into action. This happens once in all of history, this unprecedented and astonishing overturning of heaven and earth.
True Mother appoints Dr. Chang Shik Yang executive vice-president of the global Unification Church; African Regional President Katsumi Otsuka and Mr. Dae Hui Hong were among those who gave presentations, in English, at the Christmas Day speech event.
As we usher in these times, we need to ask ourselves who indeed the filial children and the loyal patriots are. Heaven has already given you an opportunity, and explained what you need to do. You need to practice absolute faith, absolute love and absolute obedience. You should never think about yourselves.
Was it Mr. Dae Hui Hong who just gave his report? He did very well. You need to be humble. Humility. Those who are in positions of responsibility should first learn to be humble. They should not think that they have done well. On the contrary, they should feel that they need to learn from all those around them. No one is a success in front of God and Heaven. There are no sons or daughters who have been successful in the eyes of the True Parents of Heaven, Earth and Humankind. You are still in the growing process. You need to know this.
True Father said that Korea is God's homeland, and if you work with me with absolute faith, absolute love and absolute obedience, I hope that we will be able to dedicate this country to God in the year we celebrate Father's one hundredth birth- day. That is seven years away. Will you do this with me? [Yes.]
In order to do so, you need to follow directions, regardless of how high or low your position is. Conic down from the high position you are in and start working from the lowest position again. Can you do that? [Yes.] That is absolute faith, absolute love and absolute obedience. You are not doing it for yourself; you are doing it for God, for humankind, to accomplish God's will. You are doing it to perfect True Father.
Father said that Korea is God's homeland, but in truth that is yet to be realized. You lived in the same era as True Father, and you breathed the same air as he did. Thus, you should be the ones who bear the fruit as well. Isn't that so? You cannot leave this work undone for your descendants to finish. We need to do it.
After Foundation Day, I will make dramatic changes in our environment.
I have arranged to have this time with you today in the hopes that you will make ready for the coming Foundation Day by offering devotions and preparing your minds and bodies. Do you understand? [Yes.] You will do that, won't you? [Yes.]
