Honoring a Coronation and a Birth – True Father

Adam and Eve’s mind and body were disunited; the mind and body of the brothers were disunited; and people committed sexual sins out of their belief that they were the best. The lineage was turned upside down and the realm of love between brothers was completely overturned. In the end, individualism emerged centering on the rights of ownership themselves, and Satan came to claim the entire world as his own. Satan made a complete mess of everything. This must be brought together into harmony by the Lord at the Second Coming. When people come to know these things and particularly when politicians come to know these things, they should understand the path they are walking down.…

Message from the Heart: to leaders and his sons – True Father

You still haven’t achieved the standard of a family that can live as God’s representative. You cannot forget that you have that responsibility; establishing Adam’s family is your mission. On a platform of global victory, you are to establish Jesus and based on having done so, you are to attend God. For me, from the start, the problem has not been the nation but the world. Jesus’ bloodline is entirely different. We thought that his mother was shown this in a dream, but that isn’t what happened. With unified content, in the horizontal era, the substantial era, with a lineage different from that of other people’s, when he made up his mind, he would never give up or yield. What the whole family wants, the village community also has to be involved in. We passed through an era of struggle in which Satan’s entire history manifested.

True Mother’s Mother:

She immediately went to Seoul and was able to see True Father at the former headquarters church in the Cheongpa dis­trict. She was surprised to find that he looked exactly like the Lord that appeared twice in her dreams during her time with the Inside the Belly Church. Enraptured in infinite joy and gratitude, she listened to him speak. But father continuously scolded her directly and treated her harshly. After a week of enduring such harsh ordeals, she was finally formally introduced to True Father by deaconess Jeong Seok-on, the elder sister of Elder Jeong Seok-cheon, after a Sunday sermon that had begun and ended in tears. She then went to Chuncheon and began witnessing to people.

Universal Peace Federation Agenda 2006

We may conceive of IIFWP, IIPC and UPF as stages in the development of a human family, for example, as parent, child and grandchild, each with different given names, but carrying the same family name:—Peace—and remaining part of the same lineage. I cannot say enough about the experience of the world peace tour which Father Moon initiated. At eighty-six, he is fully inspired, energized and on fire for peace, continually ready to lay down his life for this mission. In nation after nation, the outpouring of support was overwhelming. I can only say that through UPF I believe we truly have an opportunity to bring about profound changes in our world for the sake of lasting peace.

Meeting Core Leaders at Central City – An interview

Was there something that stood out from the Central City meeting as particularly moving?

Father’s giving us the name “ambassador for peace” with the intention of our working to make a peaceful world is moving. The name indicates our mission. No nation, no government administration, no organization thought of this before or ever intended to do this kind of work, but the Unification group is involved in the very moving, valuable, worthwhile activity of saving humanity.

Women Take to the Battlefield

Mr. Kim Ho-gee, the international team liaison for the Peace Cup, went as far as to say that the average person in Korea might not be aware that women’s football teams exist in their country. So, readers might wonder whether there is a pool of players large enough to support even a fourth women’s team. Mr. Kim explained that because the other three teams welcomed a newcomer, they released their players to try out for the Chungnam Ilhwa Chunma Women’s’ Football Club. In addition to this, seven universities in Korea have women’s soccer teams. According to Mr. Kim, “Since there are only four teams, there’s actually a relatively wide selection of players to choose from.”

Finally Home: Turning my city upside down

On my first day as church leader, I had service with eleven members; there were only three Koreans and the rest were from Japan, the Philippines and Thailand. I was determined to restore the city of Samcheok with these members and worked as if I were putting my life on the line. Many younger church leaders had served at this church before I did. I had spent forty-seven years and eights months in public missions at True Father’s side and knew that if what I leave behind in this church is no different from that of the previous church leaders, who have only ten to twenty years in public missions, the members will be disappointed and will feel there is no one they can trust or depend on.
