Father’s speech on February 7, 1995 in Washington, D.C.
HIDEO Oyamada is the representative of the Eve nation. The Adam and Eve nations need to make unity. Therefore, he will be my interpreter. [Father laughs.] This is my 75th birthday and Mother’s 52nd birthday. That is why I invited all the overseas missionaries to America. The fiftieth anniversary of the end of World War II marks a period of change. A new era and a new dimension is beginning. From the providential point of view, we do not have a heavenly nation. We do not have a heavenly fatherland. The greatest desire of all human beings is to have our original parents and our original fatherland. This is the original human desire ever since our birth. Because of the fall we lost our original human ancestor and our original fatherland. Christianity has tried to find the original ancestor and original fatherland. Human history after the fall records the search for this original ancestor and original fatherland.
[Father writes on the blackboard and Mr. Oyamada reads the words he has written] God, Adam, Eve, Cain, Abel; Satan, Adam, Eve, Cain, Abel. If the human ancestors had not fallen, Heavenly Father’s orders would go directly to Adam, and Adam’s orders would go to Eve. Then Eve as the mother would give orders to Cain, the oldest son, and finally they would reach the youngest son. This was the original heavenly order. However, the fall completely disturbed this heavenly order, and all family members fought each other. Because of the fighting and lack of unity, Heavenly Father could not dwell there. The original heavenly world was lost, and everything was completely nullified.
In place of Heavenly Father, Satan has controlled the whole world. In place of Adam, there was fallen Adam. In place of Eve there was fallen Eve. In place of Cain there was fallen Cain. You should clearly understand that be-cause of the fall we lost the original concept of order. History has been the story of salvation, restoration and re-creation. The providence of salvation is the providence of restoration and re-creation.
THE FORMULA FOR RESTORING EVERYTHING
There is a heavenly formula for restoring everything, which goes back to the original process by which God created the world. First, Heavenly Father created the environment, including the sun, air, water and soil. Without these four elements human life, and indeed all living things, would die. Within the environment there are always subject and object relationships. This subject and object relationship is the formula. If you care-fully analyze the mineral kingdom and plant kingdom you can find plus and minus in a reciprocal relationship. There are male and female animals. Human beings exist as men and women. The whole environment consists of plus and minus, subject and object.
Without subject and object, there can be no action or motion. The universe originated through some force or power. What was this energy, and where did it come from? Take for example, the husband and wife relationship: where does its energy come from? Which comes first, energy or action? A boy looks at a girl and then action starts. Action comes before force or energy. Reciprocal action does not come from a single existence; there need to be dual characteristics. When there is a reciprocal relationship between subject and object, the foundation for energy is created.
Then how do subject and object become united? The motivation is true love. Love is the motivation, and action is the result. A reciprocal relationship starts when one invests one’s self. God’s work of creation started with investment. God invested Himself and then forgot it, over and over continuously. Heavenly Father stands in the subject position and gives love to us in the object position. When we receive this love and investment from Heavenly Father and return energy to Him, that is the start of a reciprocal relationship. On that foundation, a bigger plus, a higher-dimension plus is created. That is why God created our original mind and gave us the desire to move from the individual level to ever higher dimensions, including the family level, clan level, tribal level, worldwide level and universal level, until we finally become the object of God.
What is God’s motivation for creating? To create the object of love. Heavenly Father kept investing more and more, in order to have a bigger object. Heavenly Father has the same type of feelings as human beings. If you are lonely, what kind of partner do you seek? An object of love. As an absolute subject’, God eternally invests and forgets, invests and forgets. As objects in front of Heavenly Father, we should also invest and forget, invest and forget. In this way we can become the objects of God.
To invest and forget means to sacrificially serve another person; that is the origin of the universe. As the subject of love, Heavenly Father needs an object to love. That is why He started creating the universe. As horizontal objects of love, we need to create the foundation upon which Heavenly Father can settle on this earth. The foundation of Heavenly Father’s settlement is the family. This is the most fundamental unit of Heavenly Father’s creation.
Everything will be organized and mobilized through the family unit. Through the family, Heavenly Father wants to dance and sing with us, enjoying a relationship with us. The core of the family is man and woman, husband and wife. Husband and wife should be united in mind and body. On that foundation, the husband becomes the plus and the wife becomes the minus. Within the couple, plus and minus should be united. Through this unity, the husband and wife become a higher-level plus, resulting in the creation of children. The husband and wife become parents, giving birth to children, who grow up and become parents in tum. These three generations compose the family.
God’s formula is based on reciprocal relationships. When you look at your face you see two eyes, which function in a reciprocal relationship. You do not have just one nostril; you have two nostrils, functioning in a reciprocal relationship. Everything exists for the sake of the object. What is the force that enables mind and body, husband and wife, parents and children to unite? True love. Where does true love come from? If you look for a marriage partner, do you want a spouse who is better than you or worse than you? Where does such a motivation come from? Heavenly Father also looks for a partner of love. That is an eternal, original, absolute desire: the desire for a superior object of love. We want to experience love on ever higher levels. Through true love, we can connect to the whole universe. The standard for all these levels of love is the family. Even the president of the United States connects with people centered on the family. If Adam had not fallen, he would have connected to the whole universe centering on the family. He would have been an unchanging subject, representing the whole universe like a king.
The president of the United States represents the whole nation. Adam and Eve would have been the king and queen of their family and eventually the king and queen of the tribe and nation. Heavenly Father is in the subject position, and human beings are automatically in the object position. There are kings and queens on different levels, but however large the level, they should completely fit into the formula, which is true love.
INVESTING AND FORGETTING
True love starts with total investment and then forgetting the investment. To invest and forget means to serve others and think in a sacrificial way. The person who constantly serves other people and thinks in a sacrificial way always becomes the central figure. Do you follow? This is a most important teaching. Why is Heavenly Father the eternal subject? From the beginning of creation, He has been eternally investing and forgetting, investing and forgetting, in a sacrificial way.
If there are ten members in a family, the one who is most sacrificial, sacrificing himself ten times more than the other family members, is the central figure. To serve others and sacrifice one’s self for others is our moral standard and our teaching. Because Heavenly Father is that kind of eternal subject, as His objects we should automatically have the same attitude and follow the same principle. One family member sacrifices for the others and serves them, and then that family sacrifices itself for the clan and serves the hundreds of families in the clan.
In the creation, Heavenly Father started with the mineral world, investing Himself and forgetting, until the higher level of the plant kingdom emerged. In the plant kingdom as well as the mineral kingdom, everything consists of plus and minus. Everything followed the formula.
Children are educated in kindergarten and then elementary school according to this formula of plus and minus. After they finish elementary school, they go to junior high school and high school; at every stage they meet the concept of plus and minus. When they go to the university and then pursue a doctoral course, they learn the formula of plus and minus. On that foundation every level, including the national level and worldwide level, follows the same formula of development through the reciprocal relationship between plus and minus.
If you go witnessing in your state or nation, you should be the subject of that environment. You begin in the object role and serve people, until finally you gain the subject role.
If you look at the course I have been pursuing until today, I connect with the academic realm, the political realm and the media realm, always making connections on the highest levels, by following this formula. I begin from the position of object and serve the people in that realm. Finally, I gain the subject position. That is the absolute formula, the iron-clad law. I served the famous professors and scholars, and eventually they learned that the Reverend Moon is superior to them. If you follow this formula, you will become the central figure. In the academic, political and media realms, I have been continuously investing and forgetting. Even Nobel laureate academics who thought they were at the center of knowledge are as nothing in front of me.
Individualism is a big problem. People always want to receive without investing. However, first you have to invest and then you can receive. Do you understand? You know the universal formula clearly. When you enter elementary school, you I have to unite with your teacher. You can then go to the next I higher level, which is junior high school. The same thing is true with high school and university. You should unite with the subject and then move up to a higher level.
By following the formula of investing and forgetting, you can develop from the individual level all the way to Heavenly Father. How much money have I invested up until today? I have kept no record of how much I invested. I forgot every-thing. I just invest and forget.
However, all these processes can be completely integrated within the family. All the family members should be connected, each of them existing for the sake of others. What is the motivation of all the actions in the universe? Although there are many different dimensions, they all follow the formula of true love.
What kind of people were the saints and sages? For example, Jesus Christ taught that we should love our enemy. That means to forget the wrongs and forgive the enemy. When did I decide to publish the Washington Times? While the court case was in progress, I was considered the enemy of the country. They brought a court case and put me in jail. However, I in-vested and forgot. That automatically made me the central person. This is an application of the universal formula.
SACRIFICING FOR THE WHOLE
Look at my hand. The hand by itself has no meaning. What is the meaning of my eyes, nose, ears, and legs? They exist for me. They have no value apart from the whole. Even the nose exists for the whole. The five or six organs are for the sake of their object. What about my lips? They exist for my sake. What are my ears for? They exist for me. All the organs of my body exist for my sake. Thus we should know clearly that in all the world nothing exists for its own sake but for the sake of a higher level.
What is the starting point of the material world? What is the motivation of its existence? All material things desire to connect to human beings. What is the motivation for the existence of a molecule or atom? To reach the higher plant realm as soon as possible, to be absorbed by some subject in a higher realm.
The individual sacrifices for the sake of the family. All beings seek the higher purpose. Each being seeks to unite with a higher realm, representing God. We need to step to higher realms in order to eventually reach Heavenly Father; we go from the family, to the clan, clan to the nation, nation to the world, and from the world to Heavenly Father. This is the traditional, historical formula which all things must follow.
In relationship to the animal world, human beings occupy the position of God; human beings represent God to the animal world. Human beings are in the top position of creation. All creatures want to follow human beings. What is the motivation of the mineral realm? To become part of the plant realm. When you look at this as a vertical and horizontal process, if the horizontal realm puts pressure on the vertical aspect, it pushes the vertical aspect higher, and if the vertical aspect
pushes down on the horizontal aspect it becomes wider. What does this teach us? If we sacrifice our flesh, our mind will be-come higher. If our mind becomes higher, our flesh cannot com-plain. Here we find the principle that the horizontal aspect should sacrifice for the vertical aspect; that is why we sacrifice our flesh for the sake of our mind, which is our vertical aspect.
Plants sacrifice themselves because they know that by sacrificing they become part of a higher level. The whole plant world would sacrifice itself for a small rabbit which would sacrifice itself for a tiger, because the tiger is on a higher level. Finally, the whole animal world will sacrifice itself for the sake of human beings.
Although our body does not want to sacrifice itself, it should sacrifice itself for the sake of the mind. This is why all religions teach us to sacrifice our body for the sake of our mind. How-ever, our body never wants to sacrifice itself; therefore, we have to push our body in order to enable our mind to rise to a higher level. If our mind tries to approach Heavenly Father by itself, it would take a thousand years; but if we sacrifice our body completely we can reach Heavenly Father within a second. We should know that the traditional, universal formula for development is to sacrifice on self, invest and forget. Because this formula was lost, people have not been able to develop.
THE DWELLING PLACE OF LOVE, LIFE AND LINEAGE
What do all things want to approach? The place of love, the place where love is exchanged: our sexual organs. All things want to connect with love, life, blood lineage and conscience, which are all linked in the place where man and woman unite: the sexual organs. This is the dwelling place of love, life, blood lineage and conscience. Every purpose dwells there. The movement of the universe is based on this formula.
As human beings, we should follow Heavenly Father’s way; we should connect to the deepest part of Heavenly Father. All human beings approach the original place of love as children, as brothers and sisters, as husbands and wives, and as parents. People in all four stages of human life approach this original place of love. This is the place of sexual intercourse. This is the formula for this world’s existence.
As human beings, we should go toward God. The animal world goes toward human beings and, through them, toward God. The motivation of the animal world is to reach the realm of God’s love through human beings. This is the formula. If we nullify this formula, everything that exists in this world will be destroyed. This is the fundamental concept of our being.
Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution was completely incorrect. He talked about the survival of the fittest and the weak ones being sacrificed for the stronger ones. People are confused because they do not know what is subject and what is object. They do not know the formula governing the subject and object relationship. They do not know which is first, concept or substance. The concept, or love, is first, followed by the substance, man and woman. There is concave and convex. On the foundation of unity between con-cave and convex, love and life are established. Through the reciprocal relation-ship, plus and minus unite and form a unity on a higher dimension. This is the formula of development.
Take our eyes, for example. Which was first, the concept or the substance? Before the eye developed, did it know that the sun existed? It did not know, but the purpose of the eye is to look for the sun. Did the nose know there was air before it existed? No. It did not know. What is the purpose of having eyelashes? They are just like a screen. Did the eye know that things would be flying everywhere and thus it would need eyelashes? The substantial eye did not know, but the concept knew. You may think there is no meaning to having eyelashes, but before the eyelashes existed there was a vast background of knowledge that gave rise to the substance. Do you know why the eyelid blinks? Did it know there would be dust in the air? Did tear ducts develop because the eye knew there would be dust in the air? The eye did not know these things. Do you think the eye would be more beautiful and more convenient without an eyebrow? However, without the eyebrow how would the salty sweat be kept out of the eye? Why do we have lines in our forehead? They are sweat lines. Thus we know that concept existed before substance.
Did the man’s sexual organ know before birth that it would go into a woman’s sexual organ? [Laughter.] No. The concept was first. What is the meaning of nose hairs? [Father laughs.] For a woman to have nose hairs is a very terrible thing. The concept is first and substance is second. Do you follow? Concept is first and substance is second.
Between the amoebas and human beings are thousands and thousands of relationships. Human beings come on that foundation. Without the connection of a love relationship, no new baby can come into existence. Every step of development, from the lower levels to the higher levels, always took place through a love relationship. Without that we could not reach higher levels. Thus evolutionary theory is false; it is the way of thinking of a thief. Concept is the priority.
Can you see love? We cannot see or touch love. How do we know this? Without an object of love, we cannot know that love exists. We have love, life, blood lineage and even conscience, but because we are so completely one with them we cannot feel them. How many times do you blink your eyes? Can you calculate the number? Why don’t you know? Each square centimeter is affected by air pressure, but we do not feel that pressure. If you put your hand on your breast, what do you feel? Your heartbeat. How many times does your heart beat each day? It makes a big sound, but we do not realize it because we cannot feel it? Why? Do you put a big mask in front of your nose when you go to the bathroom? Because we are completely united with it, we do not sense the smell.
THE ZERO POINT
Why did God create us so completely united with aspects of ourselves that we cannot even feel them? If you have a love object, you can suddenly feel love, life, blood lineage and even conscience. An object of love creates a big stimulation; it is a powerful stimulus, like an electrical shock. If we invest only thirty percent and neglect the remaining seventy percent, we cannot receive anything from the subject of love. However, if we invest a hundred percent and more, then we can feel the shock of love, through the subject of love. A hundred percent shock, all open! Unless we live a hundred percent for the sake of others, we cannot feel the love-shock.
If our mind and body are fighting against each other, how can we move? We cannot approach the zero point in such a condition. The zero point is where subject and object, plus and minus connect. Thus, you should unite your mind and body first, and then unite with your spouse. American people especially need to understand that individualism cannot produce unification. You have to warn American people to change and go to the opposite side. Can you do it?
This is the formula we need to learn from the sun, air, water and soil. They sacrifice themselves for the others. These four elements sacrifice themselves and serve others. For instance, if there is a small opening water will go through it. In the body, the blood penetrates the smallest openings. In a tree, the fluids rise to the top branches. Air itself follows the same formula. It invests and forgets; it gives in a sacrificial way. Even the sun works so hard, but does it take a rest? For a hundred million years it has been giving light, without stopping. The sun rep-resents God’s position. It is the life element without which no being can sustain its existence.
Is love more similar to water or to air? Both air and water flow. Does high-pressure air flow toward an area of low pressure, or does the low-pressure air flow to the high-pressure area? High-pressure air flows to the low-pressure area. Just like the sun and just like the high-pressure air, Heavenly Father invests and forgets, coming down to the low areas. Suppose water is heading down to a dirty place: will it protest going to a low place? Water and air freely flow everywhere and occupy every place. This willingness to flow is the formula of love.
Suppose a Japanese cloud said, “I hate American clouds. I do not want to be matched to an American cloud.” Would that happen? Suppose a Japanese ocean said, “I do not want to circulate in an American area.” Or suppose water in an American ocean protested against circulating 4,000 miles to Japan. Does that happen? Does water discriminate between developed and underdeveloped countries? Are there national borders dividing the currents? How do human beings compare to the cur-rents of water? They create borders and discriminate against each other.
Do American sparrows and Korean sparrows chirp differently? Why do Korean men and American men use different languages? They cause damage. Who caused this? They hate each other and fight. Parents and children fight. Even the rice or bread, for the Western world does not want to hear such sounds. God does not dwell where there is fighting. If your mind and body are fighting, God does not dwell with you. Universal law does not permit it. We should clearly understand this concept.
RESTORING THE FAMILY
The formula of re-creation involves reversing the positions of Cain and Abel. Because of the fall, the original blueprint was lost. Restoration means coming back to the original point, the original family unit, the original family formula of parents and children. Because God lost the family, He has been seeking the family. God comes down to the lowest part, seeking the lowest Abel in the satanic world. Satan occupies the head place in the satanic world. God has been coming down to hell. How miserable God’s situation is! From the providential perspective, how amazing indemnity is!
Until today, Cain and Abel have been fighting. Abel is the right wing, and Cain is the left wing. They have been fighting. Where did this fighting start? In Adam’s family. Adam and Eve were the parents and Cain and Abel were elder brother and younger brother. Because of the fall, Adam and Eve were not true parents; therefore, the elder son and younger son began to fight. If parents are centered on true love, the elder and younger brothers will embrace. However, without parents there is no embracing power; the children fight with each other.
Thus the family level was lost. To restore this, a higher-level, national foundation was needed. Judaism developed in the Abel position and the nation of Israel was in the Cain position. They should be united as Cain and Abel. When Adam and Eve are completely united, centering on Heavenly Father, Heavenly Father can dwell there. When the mother and elder son are united, universal power operates. This is the formula of re-creation. Do you follow? When there is unity between subject and object, universal power dwells there and heavenly fortune guides them.
Why do we feel pain when we have a disease? Pain exists because of the lack of unity between subject and object. When there is no unity between husband and wife, heavenly power is chased out. Therefore, they feel pain.
Thousands and thousands of electrical bolts are operating in the universe. In electrical terms, if plus and plus are always fighting, how can they unite? If thousands and thousands of electrical bolts come down, what will happen? Will electricity gradually start to flow when there is only plus? When plus and plus unite, and minus and minus unite, then plus and minus will begin to cooperate, creating some kind of reaction.
PROTECTING THE SUBJECT-OBJECT RELATIONSHIP
Before marriage, sisters live together and brothers live together. Before marriage, sisters are friends with sisters and brothers are friends with brothers. They meet every day, talk together, and sleep in the same place together. However, after marriage they focus on their spouse. Once the subject is decided, no other subjects are allowed. The heavenly formula guards the unity between plus and minus. Before a reciprocal relationship is made with an object, it is permissible to connect with others. However, once the reciprocal relationship is established, no other subject or object is permitted. You tell them to find their own spouse. Universal power protects the partnership; it is a helping force. When husband and wife are united, other influences are kicked out. If you see some handsome man, are you interested in him or not? [No! Everyone laughs.] This is the formula for settlement. Is it temporary or eternal? Do you want temporary love or eternal love? [Eternal love!]
We know that Heavenly Father always invests and forgets and that He protects the subject and object relationships. This is an eternal partnership. True love means eternally to invest and forget. On that foundation, the world of eternal peace, happiness and love can be established. On the foundation of our own unity we can connect with our environment. When the horizontal base is established, the vertical dimension operates, creating a place where the children can settle. Subject and object, plus and minus need to be united. When the central point of unity is established, horizontal expansion to the four corners of the earth is possible. This is the formula for the environment of reciprocal relationships between subject and object.
Because of the fall the elder son became the younger son, and the younger son became the elder son. Restoration means to take the reverse course and return to the original position. God could connect only to the younger son, while everything in the higher position was connected to Satan. Everyone in the family, and even those on the national level, persecutes the people in the lowest position, those who are in the Abel position. Because of this persecution, those in the lower position automatically rise higher and higher. Thus the younger brother becomes the elder brother.
Why does God’s providence of restoration take such an incredibly long time? Because the elder son always persecutes and tries to assassinate the younger son. Finally, he is con-science-stricken; then he apologizes and gives everything to the younger brother.
RESOLVING CONFLICTS
Jesus Christ came on the national level. He was crucified between the right-hand thief and the left-hand thief. Because of Jesus, they fought each other; Judaism and Israel fought each other. However, this did not fit into the formula course.
The fighting in Adam’s time was on the family level, while the fighting in Jesus’ time was on the national level, and the fighting at the time of the Lord of the Second Advent is on the worldwide level. Right wing and left wing are represented by the democratic world and the communist world. Father is the third Adam, embracing the right and the left wing. How can they be unified? At Jesus’ time they failed to unite. True Parents have to digest both communism and the democratic world. In Adam’s time there was a family-level failure, while in Jesus’ time there was a national-level failure. Both of these failures should now be indemnified on a worldwide level by Father. As the True Parent and the third Adam, I will completely digest them and embrace them, without fighting.
The worldwide level communist leader, Gorbachev, and the national level communist leader, Kim 11 Sung, should be absorbed by True Parents. Because True Parents unified the plus, or democratic world, and the minus, or communist world, this means that what was originally lost in the family will return on the national level. Because of that, I declared “True Parents and the Completed Testament Age.” Why have Cain and Abel, or left wing and right wing, emerged in history? People do not know. Neither the communist world nor the democratic world knows what direction they should take.
We should know our historical mission. I am using the Eve nation, Japan, to embrace the archangel nation, America. That is the process I am using now. Fallen Eve separated from Adam’s world. How can Eve, the mother’s position, unite the archangelic and Adamic realms? If women work for the unification of the world, it will be no problem for men to unite. The women’s age is coming. In America, women are like queens, and men are like servants. The man stops the car, gets out, and opens the door for the woman, exactly like a servant. Such a standard of action cannot continue forever. Only until the year 2000. Only another six years.
When the real king and real queen appear, people will follow them. People will have to follow the real king. The year 2000 will mark the beginning of that age.
You have to come to the zero point. You have to cancel the attitudes of this world and reach the zero point. You have to connect with the true subject, True Parents, and heavenly love; then you and your partner can create the realm of a unified couple.
The course of restoration is seeking this original ideal. Until today, the history of restoration has focused on restoring the positions of Cain and Abel. Cain tries to kill Abel three times, but then Cain is conscience-stricken. Feeling sorry, he will give the elder sonship to the younger brother, Abel. Because of this process, the history of restoration takes a long time. Because they could not bear Heavenly Father’s direct blood lineage, they sacrificed their blood lineage.
God has no concept of enemy. God’s way is always the loving way, not the hating way. Finally, even Satan will obey me and naturally surrender to me. This is the original idea of creation. To unify the right-hand side, I came to America and worked to unify with every realm, including the Congress and the United Nations. By unifying the right wing and the left wing, I laid the foundation to restore everything and safely settle True Parents and the Completed Testament age. Thousands of years ago Heavenly Father lost the original position. Through the indemnity course, Cain becomes the younger brother and Abel becomes the elder brother, regaining and restoring the original position.
The crossing point is the point of complete negation, a zero. The whole satanic world must be nullified. That is why religions have always taught people to leave their home town. Traditional religions could not teach people to return to their home town. For the first time in thousands of years of human history, the hometown providence is possible. Unification Church members have not understood how important is the hometown providence.
Adam and Eve were chased out of the Garden of Eden. In the process of restoration, we will come back to the original position of Adam and Eve. Because of false parents and false marriages, the process must be reversed. Because of false parents, people have been destined to go to hell. But with True Parents, the process is reversed and we can go to heaven. This is the final goal sought by all religions; even Heavenly Father has been “seeking this original standard. Thus, the central concept is a family. On this foundation, people can unite and their positions can be reversed; for example, the children’s position becomes a minus and the mother’s position becomes a bigger plus. We must follow the reverse course back to the original position.
The mother’s position is the bride religion; this has been the role of Christianity in history. Christianity becomes a minus and seeks the new bridegroom, the Messiah. Thus the mother and children, centering on the bride, return to the original Adam. Then we can kick out Satan. The Messiah comes down from heaven. The heavenly bridegroom should seek the bride and children. When mother and children unite, they are in the minus position in relationship to the bridegroom, who is the bigger plus. This is the formula of development. Then the restoration is finished.
Through the unity between Cain and Abel, the birthright of the elder son is restored. On this foundation parents are restored, and if Heavenly Father dwells there, the kingship or heavenly sovereignty is restored. Finally, the fighting between brothers and sisters is solved.
WHAT FATHER TAUGHT THE JAPANESE WOMEN
Why has American democracy been declining? Free sex, homosexuality and AIDS have spread all over the country. People must desperately follow me; otherwise there is no hope. Why am I doing things this way? The archangel caused Eve to fall, so Eve should restore the archangel to the original position. Because of this providential background, even the famous leaders are following Eve. When high-level men meet Japanese women, they melt. The fallen archangel melted Eve, but now Eve is melting the archangelic world.
Until today no one knew the secret of the heavenly formula course. Because of that no one can deny me. This is the process of restoration, but I have been giving women more insight. I have been teaching Japanese women the nature of women’s role in God’s providence. You should know the content of what I have been teaching the Japanese women.
Centering on Heavenly Father, there have been two kinds of women after the fall: the original or legal wife, and the mistress. From the two kinds of wives, two kinds of children have emerged. Originally, there should have been only one type of children and one type of wife. One is the elder sister and the other is the younger sister, and their positions coincide with Cain’s position and Abel’s position.
How could fallen Eve be restored at the time of Jacob? Jacob suffered for seven years to marry Rachel. Why has the history of restoration been so complicated? The things that happened to Eve should have been restored in the case of Jacob and Rachel. However, Jacob’s family went through the same course. Why did Laban send Leah, the elder sister, to Jacob’s tent on his wedding night? To restore the original position, Jacob had to love the enemy, the elder sister. In Jacob’s family, the elder sister, Leah, should have taken the position of younger sister and the younger sister, Rachel, should have taken the position of elder sister. That is how restoration would have been accomplished. However, Leah and the servant girls claimed the heavenly lineage for their side. These three women bore ten children for Satan’s side. The original, heavenly wife, Rachel, was completely denied. Leah and the concubines had ten children, while Rachel had only two. Originally, Cain’s wife and children were supposed to follow Abel’s wife and children. Abel’s plus and minus (his wife and children) were supposed to be united on the foundation of Cain’s plus and minus (his wife and children). That was the formula of restoration. However, everything was reversed.
Along these lines, the kingdom was divided into a northern part, Israel, and a southern part, Judah. The dynasties fought against each other. All twelve sons and tribes of Israel should have united to welcome the Messiah. Otherwise there was no foundation to receive the Messiah. Plus and minus should be united centering on the Messiah.
Before the Lord came, Elijah was chosen by Heavenly Father to help the northern and southern kingdoms unite. Finally, on Mount Carmel, there was a showdown between the 850 false prophets and Elijah to determine who was the true God. All morning the other prophets prayed, but nothing happened. Finally, Elijah placed water on the altar, and Heavenly Father worked. However, the people could not accept Elijah as a heavenly prophet, and they tried to assassinate him. Finally, he escaped and prayed, “Heavenly Father, please take my life.” Heavenly Father said, “Do not worry. I have been preparing things; 7,000 people did not worship the false gods.” If they united with Elijah, the Messiah would have been welcomed. Because of the failure at Elijah’s time, however, the restored Elijah had to return before Jesus could appear. Because Elijah ascended into heaven, the people expected Elijah to come down from heaven.
That was the time of John the Baptist. Among the tribes of Israel, if there were 7,000 prepared people who could welcome Jesus, the heavenly providence would have been completely fulfilled. If John the Baptist and 7,000 followers had united with Jesus, Jesus Christ could have restored all the people of Israel centering on the family of John the Baptist and Jesus Christ. However, everything failed.
Who was the father of Jesus Christ? [Zachariah.] Zachariah. This followed the same formula of legal wife and mistress. The relationship between Elizabeth and Mary was just like that between Leah and Rachel. Zachariah’s family should have re-stored Jacob’s family; they had exactly the same course. Elizabeth should have restored Leah’s position and then introduced Mary to Zachariah. The result of the relationship between Zachariah and Mary was the birth of Jesus Christ. With Mary and Jesus united as plus and minus, and Elizabeth and John the Baptist united as plus and minus, a greater plus and minus would have been created by the unity between the two wives and two sons. If this process of unity had taken place, all of history would have been completely restored. Everything would have been solved if Jesus Christ had been safely married.
Why could Jesus Christ not get married even by the age of 33? Jesus Christ is the true Adam, isn’t he? As the completed Adam, he was connected to the true love of God. If one such man and woman are united in marriage, they would have the position of royalty on the national level. If this marriage had been completed, everything would have been accomplished.
Why couldn’t Jesus get married even by the age of 33? Restoration is accomplished through indemnity. The fall involved a relationship between the archangel, Eve and Adam, culminating in the birth of Cain and Abel. Lucifer’s betrayal involved taking away Adam’s sister, Eve. Jesus’ position was Adam’s position, and John the Baptist’s position was the archangelic position. All these historical events led up to John the Baptist’s younger sister being in the position to become Jesus’ wife. With Jesus destined to be in the elder son’s position, John the Baptist’s younger sister would have become Jesus’ wife and all of history would have been restored.
When Jesus Christ was seventeen years old, he told Mary whom he should marry. Jesus Christ spoke strongly about the necessity for this marriage, no matter what sacrifices might need to be made, but Mary could not accept it. Mary went through such a severe course after her relationship with Zachariah. She experienced much persecution from the environment. If this union had been publicized, people would have stoned her to death. If Joseph had not declared that her baby was his son, Jesus and Mary would have been stoned to death. Joseph was the savior of Mary and Jesus Christ. If Mary had confessed who her child’s father was, there would have been a problem. Thus Jesus and John the Baptist’s sister had the same father, but different mothers. They were half-brother and sister. John the Baptist knew very well that Jesus Christ was an illegitimate child. When John the Baptist received the revelation that Jesus was God’s beloved son, he could not accept that an illegitimate person was the Messiah. Under these circumstances, for Jesus to marry John the Baptist’s younger sister was unacceptable. Although they had different mothers, they were both children of Zachariah. How could people accept such an incestuous relationship?
THE NEED FOR A TRUE CENTER
Why have there been so many miserable incestuous relation-ships in America? The Lord of the Second Advent clarifies all these situations. The Lord of the Second Advent chases out such situations; they have no center; they lead to hell. The free world has no center. The Christian world has no center. I am turning them back toward heaven.
Because they chased out the central figure, they have been declining for the past forty years. People have engaged in free sex. Sexual relationships between man and man and between woman and woman follow the archangelic way of life, not the heavenly way of life. At the end of World War II Great Britain, America and France were in Abel’s position, and Japan, Germany and Italy were in Cain’s position. If Sung Jin Nim’s mother, who was in the bride position, had been united with me at that time, the heavenly providence would have been completed forty years ago. The central family, central tribe and central nation would have been united around Korea as the core of parental unification. Centering on Eve’s position, all nations could have surrounded that country, creating an atmosphere of unification.
However, the same thing happened as in the Garden of Eden, and I was chased out. The Christian world did not welcome the second advent, so I was chased out into the wilderness. The family was lost, and only Adam remained. The satanic realm chased God out.
How can the Lord of the Second Advent make the family, tribe, nation and world a second time, culminating in the year 2000? At that time, I will be eighty years old, the same age as Moses.
Centering on North America in the plus position, the Unification Church is plus and Christianity is minus. On the foundation of this reciprocal relationship the South American countries, which are primarily Catholic, are Cain and North America is Abel. The two continents have been fighting, as hostile, enemy nations. The Protestant and Catholic civilizations should be united.
Reverend Jerry Falwell is a leading representative. He tried to revive America centering on Father. The archangel should unite with Eve, creating a sisterhood centering on Christianity that can unite with True Parents. Centering on Father, Cain and Abel can return to their original position, and America will take the plus position. In the reversal process, enemy countries become brother countries.
North America should go down to South America and unite with them. The united North and South America will become a big plus and Europe, centering on Germany, will automatically be in the position of a big minus to them. Martin Luther tried to unify Protestants and Catholics. When Protestants and Catholics are united in America, they will automatically be united in Europe.
The united Americas and Europe will become a still bigger plus, and Asia will automatically be in a minus position to them. Then everything is finished. There will be a new and restored United Nations. In Asia, north and south, Cain and Abel will all be completely united centering on True Parents. This is the path of restoration. Through this course we will restore Roman Catholicism and the Roman Empire. Finally, even Adam’s course will be completely restored through this process.
EVE’S MISSION
Because of Eve’s fall the family was lost. On the worldwide level, the family will be restored, centering on Eve. That is why I have been advancing the worldwide providence centering on the restoration of women. Therefore, the Japanese women came here to establish sisterhood bonds with women from America, their former enemy nation. Korea and Japan have been enemy nations, but through the sisterhood bonds everything can be solved. Therefore, should we stop now or should we continue? [Continue.]
I know everything that we need. We cannot deny that we are following the same historical formula. Who should be responsible for this? Each of us. Abel should take the responsibility. We should be responsible for that. You should be responsible from your head down to your feet.
Nora, are you united with Japanese women? If you do not speak Japanese and the women do not speak English, what should you do? Will the archangel follow Eve or Eve follow the archangel? You should speak Japanese.
The woman’s responsibility is the mother’s responsibility. Women have a difficult mission. Western civilization has been in the plus position, and the Oriental world has been in the minus position. How can those positions be exchanged? Only by me.
Now you understand the role of women on the front line. Centering on the mother, Cain and Abel can unite with the true Adam. When the mother embraces Cain and Abel, a worldwide brotherhood and sisterhood is created. This is the women’s mission.
What is the individual role of women? Because Eve fell, the elder son, Adam, was chased out and Heavenly Father was chased out. Because of the fall, Eve lost the elder son and the father. According to the Old Testament teachings, the law of restitution is an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. Because of satanic Eve’s actions, God uses heavenly Eve to restore everything.
REBECCA’S MISSION
First, Rebecca helped Jacob to prevail over the elder son and she helped her younger son restore the elder sonship. The second son had to gain the birthright, or the elder sonship. Centering on Rebecca, Jacob, the second son, was restored as the elder son. What kind of mother would let her younger son take ownership of everything that belonged to the elder son? For the second son, Jacob, to get the blessing, Isaac and Esau were subjugated. This is the process of restoration. Thousands and thousands of years ago, Heavenly Father started the history of restoration.
After fighting with Laban for 21 years, Jacob headed back to his home town beyond the Jabbok River. Jacob was sleeping in the desert near the Jabbok River when suddenly the arch-angel came and asked, “Why are you sleeping here? Wake up!” They began to fight. They fought all night. When it was morning the angel begged to be released. “Unless you bless me I will not let you go,” Jacob replied. The archangel said that Jacob had won the victory not over men but over God, and he gave him the name Israel.
Jacob was in Adam’s position. His victory meant that Adam dominated the archangel and restored the Garden of Eden. The invisible archangel was completely subjugated by Jacob; then the substantial archangel, Esau, could be automatically subjugated. Thus Jacob got the birthright and could go back to the kingdom of heaven on earth.
TAMAR’S MISSION
Jacob got the victory over the invisible archangel and the substantial archangel, but still fallen world had started from Eve’s womb. The period of life up until forty years of age remained to be restored. In place of Rebecca, Tamar became the central figure. Tamar prevailed against her husband and father-in-law. Because Tamar knew how precious the blood lineage was, she risked her life to preserve this blood lineage. Tamar’s husband had died without fathering a child. In the Israeli tradition, if a husband died without fathering a boy, his younger brother should take the widow as a wife. But the second son avoided his role. Tamar waited for the third son, but he was still young. Women have a special time period in which they can have a baby. Although it was difficult, she decided to approach her father-in-law, Judah. Thus Tamar dressed as a prostitute.
These are not my words. This is the historical background. The satanic root must be removed.
In Rebecca’s case, her two children fought within the womb. She prayed to God to understand why there was such a struggle. God told her that two nations were fighting within her womb; the bigger nation would become weak and the smaller one would become strong.
Tamar also prayed to God and got the same answer: the stronger would become weak and the weaker would become strong. The midwife put a red ribbon on the hand of the baby whose hand came out first. That was Zerah. Then he pulled in his hand. Therefore, within the mother’s womb, the blood lineage was changed, and the second son became the elder son.
Do you understand? This was the first time in human history that the elder son and younger son changed positions within the womb. This was an ultra-victory course, an internal victory. On the foundation of Tamar, Heavenly Father was able to have direct dominion freely.
The chosen nation started from this point. It was an astonishing thing that chosen people could emerge on earth. This was the historic start of God’s ability to freely control, beginning at the environment of the womb. The historic, victorious foundation started from this point. From this eternal change of blood lineage came the Israelite nation. On this foundation the Messiah could come.
It took 2,000 years for the Messiah to come. Because the satanic world had already developed to the national level, the heavenly side should also reach the national level. The Cain-type foundation in the satanic world had reached the national level, but God’s side did not have that national base. It took 2,000 years to reach that level. For 2,000 years the Israelite people went through difficulties: they were enslaved, they were captured by other nations. They had to cleanse the stained blood lineage.
MARY’S MISSION
Mary then came to restore the position of Abel on the national level. On the national level, Mary prevailed against the elder son, her husband Joseph, and the father of Joseph. Joseph’s parents were dreaming beautiful dreams about the children that their son’s future wife would bear, but she completely destroyed this dream by becoming pregnant before marriage. They heard that Mary had become pregnant. Joseph was in Adam’s position. Eve had betrayed Adam and went to hell. Now Adam had to save Eve (Mary) and restore her.
If Joseph had said the baby was not his, Mary and Jesus would have had to die. He saved Mary and Jesus. That was a tremendous, amazing thing. From the family level to the national and worldwide levels, all historic conditions were indemnified at this time. Why did such a thing happen? Because Eve was tempted by the archangel, she had to restore the arch-angel. Otherwise, there was no way for him to return to his original position. Originally, Mary should have restored the national-level mission, but she failed.
THE FAILURE OF CHRISTIANITY
After World War II, Great Britain was in the mother’s role, in the position of Eve; America was in Abel’s position and France in Cain’s position. England represented the Christian civilization as well as the Holy Spirit position; it was the center of the spiritual civilization of Christianity. Forty days after Jesus’ resurrection, the Holy Spirit descended to earth to restore the physical world. Because the Christian civilization did not accept the Lord of the Second Advent after World War II, the time for restoration came around again forty years later.
On Cain’s side were Japan, Germany and Italy. Originally, the Lord of the Second Advent was to bring a spiritual civilization to Japan, Germany and Italy, representing the material civilization. These two should have united, as plus and minus, and accepted the Lord of the Second Advent. The unified foundation of spiritual civilization and physical civilization would become the minus position in relation to Heavenly Father and True Parents, as the big plus. If they had united, a peaceful, unified world would have developed.
However, Christianity did not accept me. The peaceful, unified world was lost. Heavenly Father and I were chased out into the wilderness after World War II Every foundation was lost. Just as in the Garden of Eden, the heavenly Adam and Heavenly Father were chased out. Korea was divided into north and south; Kim Il Sung ruled North Korea as the false parent, while True Parents were in South Korea. The two nations fought each other, and the north attacked the south.
CREATING A NATIONAL-LEVEL FOUNDATION
Seventy days after the fortieth anniversary of the founding of the Unification Church, Kim Il Sung died. Seventy days after I declared Godism and heavenly thought, Gorbachev and the Soviet empire declined. Now Kim Il Sung is gone, and Gorbachev is my younger brother. This means that kingship can be restored. Without me, it is impossible to unify North and South Korea. I have been working for forty years to restore the situation that existed at the end of World War II. I have been working through Japan, America and Germany to indemnify those lost years. Now we can make a new, heavenly, model nation. Within the Korean peninsula, as I become the plus and the Korean people become the minus, the fatherland can be unified; North and South Korea will be united. On the worldwide level, North America is in the plus position and South America is in the minus position; if they unite centering on me, a worldwide foundation will emerge. Because of this we desperately need to cooperate centering on South America.
Among Japan, America and Germany, America is in the Abel position and Germany is in the Cain position in relationship to the new bride nation. Centering on Mother, America and Germany are uniting and moving toward Japan. Taking the reversal course, Cain and Abel must unite through the mother, Japan. Centering on the U.S. Congress and the whole United Nations, unity can be achieved. This be-comes the horizontal foundation which can be raised up vertically. The archangel caused Eve to fall; in the reversal course, Eve should restore the archangel.
Because Mother does not have the national-level foundation, I am sending out 1,600 Japanese women. When Mother came to Japan for her speaking tour, she spoke to the Japanese Diet. The American Congress and Japanese Diet could connect as Cain and Abel to the mother and, through her, return to the father. Because of that foundation, she could connect to the Korean congress. On this foundation, the second generation people in both north and south can be united, and the unification of the Korean peninsula will be completed. Within the Korean peninsula, four factions have been fighting: the pro-Japanese, pro-Chinese, pro-Russian and pro-American. The second generation is completely different; when they completely unite with True Parents, the peninsula can be unified. When Mother spoke on forty university campuses, the leftist student groups completely united with CARP, enabling CARP to restore the elder sonship centering on Mother. Now all the leftist students in Korea are greatly influenced by CARP. South Korean students, in the plus position, and North Korean students, in the minus position, are unifying to hold the Asian rally I am promoting.
Mother’s role centers on the Women’s Federation for World Peace. When CARP is completely united with her, there will be no more fighting with communists. Now is the time for the unification of the Korean peninsula. The vertical foundation of 160 should be connected horizontally to 160 nations. Within the satanic realm there is fighting, but I am working to horizontally unify 160 nations. How can we help underdeveloped countries? We need to unify the horizontal world, restore the history of fighting, pay indemnity and connect to True Parents. Shall we do it?
In South America, Uruguay is in the plus position and Paraguay is in the minus position. On this foundation Brazil and Argentina can also completely unite as plus and minus. When these two plusses and minuses unite, all of South America can unite, creating a God centered foundation. That is a special site for God’s providence. I do not want America, Brazil or the European realm. I do not want some high-level satanic country. Instead, I want to build up the lowest country. The time for highly-developed countries with grand buildings has passed. Pride and arrogance destroys everything. I was in the lowest position, but I always make bigger and bigger plans. I am just in a servant position. We must go over the satanic world.
You need to know that the formula for restoration starts with the family. Re-creation follows the same formula.
