Here, in this place today, earth and heaven are one

Loving blessed families and others who have assembled here from around the world. Here, in this place today, earth and heaven are one. However, the path we must continue to take is the one toward global restoration.

God created human beings because He had a dream for them. The Fall caused Heavenly Parent pain, grief and deep resentment, because to fulfill the purpose of the Creation, which God had established, human beings and God should have become one. However, Heavenly Parent could not give up.

Therefore, the providential history of restoration through indemnity, which sought a means of restoring fallen human beings, began. God established an individual, a tribe and a people that could understand Heaven's circumstances and those of the fallen world. The Israelites, whom we are familiar with, were those people. They were prepared over a long period, four thousand years. How difficult must this have been?

HakJaHan-160507-2.png

Yet God did not give up; when the Israelites had formed a national foundation, He sent the messiah as He had promised. The messiah should have formed the True Parents, who would have achieved God's dream and fulfilled humanity's hope. However, the only begotten son, Jesus Christ, lost that environment. Mary, other central figures and the Jewish Israelites should have been by Jesus' side, supporting and attending him, but they did not fulfill their responsibilities.

Jesus had lost everything; he had nowhere to go. During his three years of public ministry, he established twelve disciples, but in the end, none of them were able to unite with Jesus. As Jesus died on the cross, he left behind the statement that he would come again. He said that he would return and hold the marriage supper of the Lamb.

Heaven would not give up. God could no longer carry out providential history through the Israelites, who had failed to fulfill their responsibilities. Therefore, that two-thousand-year stretch of providential history was one in search of the only begotten daughter of God. However, Christians of today are unaware of this.

HakJaHan-160507-3.png

For a long time, God had been preparing the Korean people, through whom He finally found the longawaited only begotten daughter of God after six thousand years as calculated using the Bible. At the time of Jesus, two thousand years ago, Mary, Zechariah, and the Jewish people, the Israelites, did not unite or attend Jesus. They were unable to create the environment that Jesus was trying to make. However, with the foundation of the only begotten daughter of God, found after six thousand years, Heaven has succeeded.

Dae-mo nim literally means "great mother." Dae-mo nim, more than anyone else, is the one who embraces all fallen human beings and can bestow on them good favor and grace, so that they can approach True Parents. Hence, centered on Chung Pyung, the great works in both the physical world and the spiritual world could substantially begin. This was possible because she united with True Parents. Do you understand?

Since then, depending on how grateful you are and how loyal you are in front of Heaven, through this Chung Pyung Training Center, you will have amazing growth and development in the areas of the standard of your hearts and your lives of faith. This is a place where you can actually experience Heaven working with you.

Therefore, in front of you, centering on the Chung Pyung complex, I will build the Cheonji Sunhakwon, to be best and to be unique, so that Heavenly Parent's dream and True Parents' wish can be achieved and be shown in the front of the world. I plan to make it a sanctuary where in the future, your descendants can experience and feel True Parents love and give unlimited gratitude and glory to Heavenly Parent.

Ladies and gentlemen, here today, please dream great dreams. I pray that you will unite with True Parents, unite with me, and that you become proud citizens of Cheon Il Guk that can bring the day closer when heaven on earth is realized (which Heaven hopes for) and when the 7.3 billion people of the world are one and are attending Heavenly Parent, centered on Heavenly Parent and True Parents. Now, not much times remains until 2020, the deadline of our first goal. We can be victorious. If you and those in your family, your tribe and your nation become Cheon Il Guk citizens that attend Heavenly Parent, we can be victorious. [Aju]

Please become blessed families that bring that day closer. Please align your wishes and big goals with True Parents' wish and go forward with vigor.

My determination to achieve Heavenly Parent's wish is growing

They say that a mother is more sensitive and expressive than a father. That is correct.

A mother's responsibility is heavy. However, my determination to achieve Heavenly Parent's wish while I am still alive is growing. Every day I am constantly creating what I think into reality.

The manifestation of the second coming of the Lord, the True Parents, should have been achieved on a national foundation. Yet nothing has been heard from Christianity, which had been prepared for two thousand years. They are completely unaware. Hence, there was no way for them to cooperate with us.

You should be grateful that True Parents have laid the foundation we have today from an environment where they had to start from the very bottom.

Luckily, True Parents, True Mother, is on earth. You should be grateful for this. You should begin each day saying, "Thank you. thank you." By doing so, there will be progress.

Truth. By the way, I prayed while the holy items were passed out yesterday. There cannot be one spot or any trace of the satanic world. You need to understand this. You must fulfill your responsibilities on your own. No one can do it for you. For those in the second generation and third generation, it is the same.

There is a world of difference between a member saying (upon entering the spirit world), "I have fulfilled my responsibility," while True Mother is on earth and saying so when True Mother is already in the spirit world.

Thank you.

Members from around the world are commemorating this occasion with us today.

Today, we are living in anxiety, unable to spend even a single day in happiness, due to all the difficult and tragic problems striking the world and the unimaginable natural disasters triggered by global warming. Humanity has striven to find ways to establish one world under God, but their dream has been of no avail. That is because they do not know the providential history our Creator, God, originally conducted. I believe that you were able to learn a lot about True Parents through the preceding long program.

That is so. Heavenly Parent and humanity’s dream is the True Parents. Only through True Parents can all problems be resolved. Hence, you, who have met True Parents first, must show it to others. You must teach it to others. You must be able to boldly tell the whole world that True Parents have come and that they are the hope of humanity. Our Unification Movement are to raise revolutions of the heart, culture and arts around the world.

Many famous artists were born during the 2,000-year Christian history, but they had no center. As of now, Heavenly Parent and True Parents will always be with all Unificationists in the Cheon Il Guk era as we advance forward. We will certainly establish the substantial Kingdom of Heaven on earth, which humanity long hoped for, by mobilizing our devotion and everything we have. With the hope that you will all join this endeavor, I would like to propose the toast of victory. Let us all shout “Victory” (Seung-ri) three times with the determination that we can victoriously realize our dream, Heavenly Parent’s dream and humanity’s dream.

Victory to Heavenly Parent’s dream and our dream!!!

Victory! Victory! Victory! (Seung-ri! Seung-ri! Seung-ri!

Prayer over the Four Holy Items

HakJaHan-160421b-1.PNG

Our awe-inspiring Heavenly Parent! In order to realize your dream, you manifested the Creation and created Adam and Eve, who were to become ancestors of all human beings.

The principle behind the Creation called for human beings to become one with you. If Adam and Eve had fulfilled their responsibilities and become the very first ancestors of humankind by attending Heavenly Parent the world today would not be in its present circumstances.

However, due to the Fall, Heaven has endured a long, six-thousand-year history filled with resentment and grief.

Yet you held on to your original ideal of Creation, so you endured, longing for the day the human ancestors would appear and liberate you.

For the first time in six thousand years, in 1960, the term, “True Parents,” was manifested on earth through the only begotten son and daughter that You raised. However, even though True Parents had many miserable days owing to their having to begin from the very bottom and climb up through the eight stages (because the Christian foundation, which had been prepared for two thousand years could not create an environment or become a ladder) True Parents still bore many blessed children.

These blessed children, who are in Satan’s realm of power, have the responsibility—centered on True Parents, with absolute faith, absolute love and absolute obedience—to multiply in a position united with their True Parents. Yet, even before fulfilling that responsibility, they have looked after themselves alone and wavered in that (satanic) environment. True Parents’ hearts break when they see their children living such a life a faith.

Heavenly Parent has supported True Parents’ wish with compassionate grace once more to establish a realm of God’s homeland where all human beings can become blessed children. As blessed families and true citizens of Cheon Il Guk, which You have settled anew on an established standard of faith at high noon, we will become blessed children who fulfill our missions and responsibilities.

Please bless this occasion so that these blessed children may engraft as unified children who fulfill all our responsibilities in the presence of True Parents’ efforts to embrace the 7.3 billion people, which is the hope of our Heavenly Parent. To bless this day, once again, in the name of True Parents, may we be reborn through these holy items graced with Your compassion and become true children who can go to the eternal original homeland with no shadows and no trace of even the smallest satanic realm.

May all the children of our unification families all over the world realize that these holy items bestow your blessed grace and may they joyfully appreciate you. May we become children who do our best to fulfill our responsibilities so that your children, the 7.3 billion people, who will remain in your proud history—can be embraced within True Parents’ bosom.

In hopes that you will once again oblige us with your compassion, I bless these in the name of True Parents. Aju.

True Mother then said to the members present:

This holy salt is special. When a blessed member nears the end of his or her earthly life and is about to ascend to the spirit world, the member should repent to purify any wrongdoing. This holy salt should be used in a special ritual during the Seonghwa Ceremony so that the person can ascend in the original state of Adam and Eve at the time of their creation.

Providential Background to and Purpose of Bestowing the Four Holy Items

Providential Background

A. On February 2 (1.13 by the heavenly calendar) in 2013, True Parents hosted the Cheon Il Guk Foundation Day Registration Blessing Ceremony. Through this blessing, True Parents unconditionally bestowed the grace of returning to the original garden of Eden. Through True Parents’ unconditional love, blessed families could return to the era of Heavenly Parent’s direct dominion and take the path befitting the era of Cheon Il Guk.

B. The True Parents of Heaven, Earth and Humankind proclaimed Vision 2020 to enable the settlement and firm establishment of Cheon Il Guk. Three key policies were announced for this vision, namely, “witnessing,” “creating an environment for witnessing,” and “raising future talent.” Furthermore, True Parents have been leading the providence to restore all humanity through heavenly tribal messiah activities. In particular, following True Father’s ascension, True Mother offered profound devotion for three years in a state of absolute oneness with True Father. True Mother offered this devotion on behalf of all humanity and participated in the last measure of filial devotion that True Father offered to our Heavenly Parent. Furthermore, on the foundation of these devotions, True Parents hosted the historic third anniversary of Foundation Day centering on True Parents’ holy birthday.

C. True Mother instructed that we celebrate the joint holy birthday of the only begotten son and only begotten daughter as well as True Parents’ Holy Wedding. These celebrations helped members reminisce on the meaning of these events. During the fifty-sixth anniversary of True Parents’ Holy Wedding (held on March 16, 2016), True Parents bestowed the Cheon Il Guk holy wine. True Mother explained that through this special holy wine, blessed families should completely purify themselves for the lives they have led since the Cheon Il Guk Coronation, resolve to improve and make a new start through the four years of hope for the victory of Vision 2020.

D. In order to forgive and embrace blessed families once more, True Parents had to bear an unimaginable cross of love. Let us remember this special grace bestowed by True Parents through this special holy wine ceremony, repent for past mistakes, and express our gratitude by contributing to Vision 2020 through victorious heavenly tribal messiah activities.

Purpose in bestowing this grace

1. Cheon Il Guk Holy Items of the perfection level: True Parents made the very first holy items during their Holy Wedding on March 16, 1960 and bestowed them at the formation level. On June 13, 2006, True Parents presented us with holy items at the growth-level through their victorious Coronation and Entrance into Cheon Jeong Peace Palace. Finally, during the fifty-sixth anniversary of their Holy Wedding, True Parents bestowed Four Great Holy Items of Cheon Il Guk at the perfection level.

2. This grace will enable us to be reborn in the original garden of Eden and enter the eternal original homeland (Bonhyangwon) in a state of ninety-degree alignment with Heaven and without any satanic traces or shadows.

3. This blessing is a special grace that will enable us to become true children.

4. Moses received the tables with the Ten Commandments, an unchanging symbol from Heaven, while praying and fasting for forty days in the wilderness on Mt. Sinai for the sake of the Israelites. Likewise, the Four Great Holy Items of Cheon Il Guk are heirlooms to be cherished by all citizens of Cheon Il Guk. They have been bestowed on us as symbols of Heavenly Parent and True Parents as well as a special grace that will retain heavenly fortune and stop all satanic intrusions.

* This holy salt is special. When a blessed member ends his or her earthly life and is about to ascend to the spirit world, the member should repent, purify any wrongdoing, and this should be used in a special ceremony during the Seonghwa Ceremony so that the person can ascend in the original state of Adam and Eve at the time of their creation.

The Holy Items are: Holy Wine, Holy Salt, Holy Candle and Holy Soil

When God enacted the Creation and made Adam and Eve, he had a dream, didn't he? To fulfill that dream he created human beings in a way requiring their cooperation through the realization of their portion of responsibility. Yet Adam and Eve did not become one with God -- one in heart, body, harmony and ideology. Selfishness was the problem. It caused the Fall. Most of you here are central figures who have been attending True Parents and working since the beginning days of the church. Nevertheless, the question arises of whether you have expunged your selfish desires–not just in words, but in actuality.

The two-thousand-year Christian history did not smoothly unfold. Christians did not understand its center. They did not recognize Heaven's providence. They were only side branches. Yet the position of the only begotten son remained. Therefore, Jesus passed that position on to Father when Father was sixteen years of age [by Korean reckoning]. You need to understand this clearly. However, Father did not become the returning Lord right then and there. He also had a portion of responsibility.

HakJaHan-160224-2.PNG

In 1945, Korea was liberated [from Japanese occupation], but soon an unwanted division arose between different ideologies -- communism and democracy. Around that time, in the northern side of Korea, many spiritual and providential institutions existed that were aware of the true nature of Christianity's providence. Because Jesus had said he would come again, Christians imagined -- some, even to this day -- that Jesus would return riding on clouds. However, the spiritual groups I am referring to understood that True Parents had to come in the flesh, not just spiritually. Thus, they prepared and offered spiritual conditions as they awaited the returning Lord in the flesh.

Birth and early years

Three devout Christian churches had a relationship to one another based upon this belief. Out of them came the spiritual Rev. Yeong-do Lee and Rev. Ho-bin Lee. Rev. Ho-bin Lee, who mainly worked in Pyongyang, blessed my mother saying that she would bear a child of Heaven. After she had married, the child my mother bore was I. When I was born, Satan appeared and tried to kill me: Because you were born I will die. I will perish. So I cannot let you live. I must kill you, you newborn baby.

He said this because in the same manner that Jesus had been born without original sin through the Israelite's four-thousand-year providence of indemnity, I was born with no original sin because I was in that position. You need to understand this. The position of the only begotten daughter is evident.

Preparatory efforts

Korea had been divided at the thirty-eighth parallel, and then the Korean War broke out in 1950. Before that, I had been in the north until I was six years old, which was around the same time Father was active in the north, after having received God's command to go there. Father was in the same prison as Mrs. Hobin Heo. You might have heard the story of how Father secretly sent a note telling her to deny everything to first get out of prison [because she had the mission to testify to Father], but she did not understand and in the end Father was humiliated in public.

She was from one of the groups [the inside-the-womb church] that had prepared for the returning Lord. She received the teaching of this church. That group made clothes for the returning Lord in all sizes. They also made clothes for Jesus. When the returning Lord came, the marriage supper of the Lamb would have to be held. Isn't that right? They even knew that the thirty-six couples would have to be established and they prepared for that. When Mrs. Heo was imprisoned, my mother took her place [guiding the inside-thewomb church]. I was six years old when Mrs. Heo called to me and offered a prayer of blessing, saying that I would become the mother of the universe.

The thirty-eighth parallel had become the division, but the north and south were still forming their governments. My uncle had studied pharmacology at Waseda University. After he graduated, he should have returned to his hometown but we received a telegram saying he had joined the army in the south instead. He was the only son in the family. We wondered what we should do. Coming to southern Korea and crossing the parallel was still possible. It was not how it is today. Thus, to see her son, my grandmother, with my mother and me, traveled down south.

HakJaHan-160224-3.PNG

Fleeing northern Korea

We were stopped and told to turn back, but since we were women with a child they let us go. Using the night, we crossed the thirty-eighth parallel and met my uncle. However, the border became stricter and two years later, the Korean War broke out.

Army headquarters was just across the river. I was in Hyochang-dong at the time. During the war, as the North Korean army advanced, the South Korean army also had to move. We were fleeing with other refugees but we returned home thinking, Oh, no, uncle will come. [Will he find us?] But then in the middle of the night my uncle arrived and told us to get into his car. He was a military officer in the army medical division and had some kind of pass, so we were able to cross the Han River.

Civilians were not allowed to cross the Han River Bridge, but the ranks of soldiers were moving. Behind me was an endless line of very young soldiers. Having gone not much farther after crossing the bridge, they told us to get out of the car and get down on the ground. The Han River Bridge blew up. Even at a young age, I was stunned. [An army engineer, Chang-sik Choi, had been ordered to blow up the bridge to impede North Korean troops. Choi was executed by the South Korean military but received a posthumous pardon in 1961.]

The North Korean soldiers weren't coming then, but maybe they heard gunshots. The soldiers on the bridge had volunteered to fight for our nation…. Couldn't they have waited to destroy the bridge once all those young soldiers had crossed? Why did they have to do that? I do not know. Backed up by the ranks of soldiers, they couldn't even stop and fell through. I saw many things I should not have seen at a young age.

Growing up, my grandmother told me this: Your Father is God. She told me that my physical father and mother were in the position of caregivers. "Your father is God." Though I had to go through hardships because of the war, it was only for a short time and I felt that Heaven was protecting me very comfortably and safely. If I had stayed in the north at that time, I would have died. Heaven guided everything around me so that I could come down naturally.

Why did Heaven tell Father to go to the north? I said this earlier, but it was because of his portion of responsibility. You need to understand that.

Korea's special background

When we look at the Israelites' history, Heaven had guided them for four thousand years until they established a national foundation and a national standard. Then he sent Jesus. Thus, God also has to find and establish a national standard to be the foundation for his only begotten daughter.

Why is Korea called Hanguk? Out of our brilliant five-thousand-year culture, our history, Goguryeo [a kingdom, 37 bc–ad 668] lasted almost one thousand years. Therefore, when Goguryeo dissolved and Goryeo was founded, they called it Goryeo by using the same "go" character. As Goryeo dissolved, Joseon was founded. It was so named based on fond memories of Goguryeo.

Coinciding with Korea's liberation, why did this country's name become Hanguk? Have you thought about this? The conclusion is that Heaven's providence decided the fate of this nation. Why? Because it was the nation where the only begotten son and daughter of God would be born. Between 800 and 400 bc was a Han (韓) kingdom that derived from the Dongi People. This appears in one of the oldest ancient books in China. That the family of the Han kingdom was chased out of China and came down south by sea is recorded.

Jin-myung Kim, who was an ambassador for peace, gave me a book called Cheonnyunui Geumseo [Book of Secrets Banned for a Thousand Years] which he had written. The book says Korea [Hanguk] did not originate from Samhan [Three Han States]. Further back there was a Han kingdom. I read this book to Father. He told me to study more about it and study more history. Though it was a satanic world, Heaven carried out the providence in a righteous and good… on such a national foundation, in such a kingdom. Do you understand? This would not have been possible with human power.

In 1960, we learned many things from the spirit world through grandmother Seung-do Ji. She said, "The one who will because the mother of the universe must have the surname Han (韓). Sun-ae Hong's daughter is a Han." This did not come about through human power.

Focus on your responsibilities

Therefore, the Korean people need to become people that fulfill Heavenly Parent's wish and True Parents' wish. This country must become the one that does that. You should stand in the center and invest in this. Do not talk about useless, self-centered topics. That is not for you.

God's dream is True Parents. I appreciate those among you who respond that you will be loyal; I appreciate your consideration in trying do something to help when you see True Parents' children disunited with Mother.

However, you need to understand this: Just as Adam and Eve had their portions of responsibility, True Parents' children also have responsibility. No one can help them. They need to do this themselves. Do you understand? True Parents are the True Parents of humankind who fulfill God's wish. Please understand this clearly. You are elder members. If you want to be respected as elders you need to fulfill your responsibility and set an example.

I announced the Five Organs, and this year, Three Organs were launched. I also launched the Supreme Council. This differs from regular political foundations. Why do some people not understand that? The mission of the Supreme Council is to take good care of our members. It is not to be used for politics. Therefore, I appointed each regional president as a vice-chairperson. The Korean movement should act centered on President Lu.

You, who are in the position of church elders, should fulfill your mission of taking good care of the new sprouts, the families that are newly growing, to guide them on the right path. You should not hope for remuneration. This is your responsibility. It is the responsibility of blessed families. Is fulfilling your responsibly something you should be paid to do?

The Mormon Church expanded throughout the world due to the Seventy. I visited a Mormon Church once. The person who greeted me was a Korean and was one of the Seventy. He said he worked without remuneration. They do not have the core. So what do they do it for? What about us? Don't we have everything? Why would we have to be inferior to them? In the end, they too, are people we need to embrace. Father said something like this: You should be born well, but you should also die well.

As blessed members and as elders, what kind of lives will you lead in the next world? What results will you take there at the end of your lives? You should think about this. If you do not have results, no matter how close you were to Father on earth you will not be able to go in front of him. Do you understand? We taught you all of this, so you cannot say that you did not fulfill your responsibility because you did not know. While I am still on earth, I am going to prepare everything perfectly. Only by doing that can your descendants and future generations follow the right path. You must find your own fortune. Nobody will give it to you. I said this earlier, but each of you has your own responsibility.

However, in today's world, the North–South problem is complicated and becoming crucial. Religious wars all around the world, climate change -- none of this gives rise to hope. As time goes on, the earth will go through slow destruction; people could even go extinct. Having parental hearts, can True Parents just sit around and wait? I need to establish everything that Father did not have time to establish. Isn't that true? You must say, "Until the day I die I will fulfill my responsibilities without fail." Do you understand? Today must be different from yesterday. Please move swiftly as if one day were a thousand years.

Please lead well as elders and with the heart of parents. I would appreciate it if you were to unite with the headquarters, move as one. You need to tie the entire world together as one. Please become blessed family elder members who are a causal force to achieve that.
