Offered by Heung-jin from the Cheong Pyeong Heaven and Earth Training Center on September 3, 2003
Beloved high and noble Parents of Heaven and Earth! I am truly grateful to you for opening the era of Cheon Il Guk, where we can live in joy and happiness, and for proclaiming the nation of the fourth Israel. We have now ushered in an era of heavenly kingship, authority and fortune when God can directly work with and lead us with the Parents of Heaven and Earth. In particular, the Holy Marriage Blessing Ceremony of the Parents of Heaven and Earth Opening Cheon Il Guk is a joy to the spirit world, the physical world and the Parents of Heaven and Earth. Moreover, it is a victorious and liberating joy to the Cosmic Parent.
To break down the walls created by the Fall and to restore the original relationship, according to the heavenly law, you, the True Parents of Heaven and Earth have worked day and night without rest to establish each moment of the providence successfully, and to lead the whole of humanity to the path of freedom, peace and happiness. Whenever there was a providential proclamation, you emphasized the role of the spiritual world. I’m deeply grateful to you, Parents of Heaven and Earth, for encouraging me, your son, with the special message in calligraphy, “Absolute Victory of Moon Heung-jin, the Commander-in-Chief of Heaven” at the time of the declaration of the beginning of the fourth nation of Israel.
Until now, the spirit world has made continual progress based on the victorious foundation of the Parents of Heaven and Earth, centering on God. I would like to report to you about recent work in the spirit world, focusing on activities of the founders of the five great religions following the recent providential activities you have initiated.
Current Activities in the Spiritual World Following the Development of the Providence
First, I would like to express my gratitude to you, the Parents of Heaven and Earth, who have been holding events and making proclamations at every peak of the providence in order to liberate God and open a path to salvation for all humankind.
As we entered the year 2002, you, the Parents of Heaven and Earth, proclaimed the era of the realm of victory for an autonomous nation, and blessed the spiritual world and the physical world to become one and to cooperate with each other centering on the complete settlement of Cheon Il Guk. Through the Proclamation Ceremony of Total Unification of the Spirit World and Physical World, you have also opened a way for the ancestors who have become absolutely good spirits to return to earth and support their descendants to realize God’s nation, Cheon Il Guk.
In addition, through your declaration of the Realm of Life of the Unity and Completed Settlement of the Parents of Heaven and Earth, you blessed all the ancestors in the spirit world and blessed families on earth, so that we all can have the original realm of life wherein we can live together serving God and the Parents of Heaven and Earth. You strengthened the sovereignty and power (of God and the Parents of Heaven and Earth) through the Coronation Ceremony for the Kingship of God, the Total Liberation of 6,000 Years of History and the proclamation of the Realm of Life of the Unity and Completed Settlement of the Parents of Heaven and Earth. We have thus entered the age when absolute goodness can hold true power. It is the time when God’s omniscience and omnipotence can be clearly shown on earth and in the spirit world, and the age in which we can see with our own eyes that goodness is developing and that evil is gradually perishing has thus been opened.
God used to appear to the blessed families as light. However, since the Proclamation of the Realm of Life of the Unity and Completed Settlement of the Parents of Heaven and Earth, God appears directly to blessed members using His own voice and original body. When we are called in such a time of grace, we should answer “Yes!” with great confidence, affirming our absolute faith, absolute love and absolute obedience. Only then can we live in joy and happiness as desired by the Cosmic Parent and the Parents of Heaven and Earth.
Through the Declaration of the Age of Peace, Unity and Equalization, the realm of life was opened, wherein God can visit and directly govern blessed families. I am truly grateful that we can attend you, the Parents of Heaven and Earth, when the spiritual and physical worlds hold equal value and significance. Ancestors who have become absolutely good spirits by receiving the blessing in the spirit world can now return to earth and cooperate with their descendants more than ever before.
In particular, at the time of your birthday celebration on February 6 of the third year of Cheon Il Guk, and in special congratulations for Mother’s sixtieth birthday, the Holy Marriage Blessing Ceremony of the Parents of Heaven and Earth Opening Cheon Il Guk and the Coronation of the King of the Blessed Families of the Peace and Unity of the Cosmic True Parent and the True Parents of Heaven and Earth were held.
The Holy Marriage Blessing Ceremony of the Parents of Heaven and Earth Opening Cheon Il Guk was held on a historic day which ushered in a new era after the complete settlement of Cheon Il Guk, centered on God’s kingship. On that day, you, the Parents of Heaven and Earth, were secured as the Ancestors of Goodness and could register the original marriage. I am truly grateful that through this ceremony, the Cosmic Parent and the Parents of Heaven and Earth could finally register their marriage, and all the blessed families could also register their births with the benediction of the Parents of Heaven and Earth. Therefore, all blessed families should put more effort into becoming children of God and of the Parents of Heaven and Earth. It was truly a moving ceremony, a grand turning point enabling God’s kingship, the substantial kingship on earth, to begin through you. Moreover, it was a great moment in history in that you, the Parents of Heaven and Earth, in total unity with God, the Cosmic Parent, could be crowned king of the blessed families.
The foundation made by this Holy Marriage Blessing Ceremony and the Coronation Ceremony of the King of the Blessed Families was the starting point for the world of the new culture of the heavenly kingdom.
On this foundation, the Sun Moon Peace Cup 2003 was successfully held, with the participation of eight clubs representing all the continents. The Peace Cup tournament was a great festival of harmony that promoted the harmony and unity of humankind in order to restore God’s authority and establish His nation in the era of Cheon Il Guk.
Art, culture and sports exist in the original world and are thus responsive to and express the environment of the kingdom of Heaven in the spirit world. Therefore, art, culture and sports are media through which people create the heavenly environment on earth. The Peace Cup was held to give people the opportunity to experience, through sports, with all their mind and body, the grand nature and the beauty of the kingdom of heaven and our world of dynamic harmony and unity. It conveyed to the physical world the world of unity and harmony in the kingdom of heaven in order to create a base for the unity and harmony of humankind. This event became a great turning point and demonstrated the original value of sports.
At the Summit of World Leaders for world peace held in August, you told us that a genuine change in human nature, temperament and ideology is essential for the realization of a true world of eternal peace. We will work from the spirit world so that all nations and religions repent for their past mistakes and make a new resolution to work for harmony and peace.
Further, you established [the foundation for] an inter-religious council at the United Nations in order for the world to begin a new future of peace and be resolved to eliminate suffering caused by war, disease, and poverty.
Up to the point of the Summit of World Leaders and the Seoul Peace Declaration, in keeping with your providence for spreading world peace far and wide, we have resolved ourselves to create harmony, unity and continuous advancement, in the spirit world, for God’s nation and world peace, and to educate absolutely good spirits to work harder for the movement of reconciliation and unity among different religions.
Activities of the Founders of Five Great Religions in the Spirit World
At this time in the spirit world, the founders of the five great religions, who have received the blessing, and absolutely good spirits are working hard to find and convince their own followers in the spirit world who are not yet restored and engraft them to you, the Parents of Heaven and Earth. Representatives of each religion, together with absolutely good spirits, are visiting people in the spirit world who believed in their religions while living on earth to explain the Principle based on aspects of their own religious doctrines that are in accord with the contents of the Principle. They have continuously educated and trained those followers, teaching them about the original sin and the Principle viewpoint so they can inherit the true love ideology from you, the Parents of Heaven and Earth. Those founders and absolutely good spirits are educating people in the spirit world in order that they may be engrafted to you, Parents of Heaven and Earth, in order to reach the goal of recreating the world of the original creation centering on God, who is the one and only Lord of Creation.
However, it is not easy for the founders of the five great religions to educate and convert those people in the spirit world. This is because, just as people living on earth have barriers in their minds surrounding them—which make it difficult for others to break down such walls, open the door of the mind and communicate heart-to-heart—the spirits in the spirit world also have invisible walls that block them from communicating with one another, and even the spirits with the same religion find it very difficult to break down the barriers between the spirits and open the doors of the mind.
Nevertheless, through the work of the Parents of Heaven and Earth, who have abolished many barriers and liberated the spiritual world, the spiritual barriers between people in the spirit world have begun to break down. As a result, it has become significantly easier to work in the spirit world. Even on earth, in witnessing to people, it is not sufficient to talk to an individual once or twice. We should continue to invest ourselves by giving them our consistent attention. That is how an individual can open his or her heart, the barriers can break down, and the person can eventually commit him- or herself to a life of faith. Likewise, in the spiritual world, getting spirits to open their hearts is a tremendous endeavor—far more difficult than witnessing to earthly people.
That is why you, the Parents of Heaven and Earth, have made numerous proclamations, including the dissolving of boundaries in the United Nations, that aided in the breaking down of barriers in the spirit world. In particular, through the Ceremony for the Total Liberation of Resentment—held at the Chuseok celebration in 2000—and the Ceremony for the Liberation of the Spirit World, the walls within the spirit world have collapsed and the way for spirits to communicate with each other has been opened up. Consequently, it is now possible to witness to people in the spirit world. In the future, if you continually make declarations that can break down the barriers in the middle realms of the spirit world, we can be much more empowered to witness to the spirits there.
In addition, in order for the founders of the five major religions to have a greater effect on religious believers both in the spiritual world and on earth, it is imperative that the ambassadors for peace and religious believers who participated in the blessing be educated on a regular basis about the spiritual world. At the same time, interreligious activities and discussion that is conducive to harmony among religions should continue.
No matter how hard the founders of the five great religions try to work with the people on earth, these people cannot experience the contents of the spirit world because their five spiritual sensory organs are closed and their bodies are packed with evil spirits. Thus, regardless of how much they may desire to show them, it is difficult to do so. In order to open their spiritual senses, education should continue, along with the Cheong Pyeong providence.
The founders of the five great religions are diligently working, so that each religion can be united with the Parents of Heaven and Earth. They deeply respect the fact that the Parents of Heaven and Earth treat everyone equally, showing them the same true love, transcending all religions. The founders of the great religions are truly, truly grateful for your great grace and love. You settled all the problems that their own religions could not possibly solve, such as the liquidation of the original sin through the blessing and the perfection of the four-position foundation.
I came to know that you, the Parents of Heaven and Earth, blessed 120 billion people in the spirit world and in the physical world to restore the satanic lineage created by the fall of Adam and Eve into God’s lineage of goodness and to cleanse their bodies stained with fallen nature. With your blood, sweat and tears, you invested your lives to enable those people to live with one dedicated heart, body and mindset. In addition, there are already seventy generations of ancestors who have been liberated and blessed and thereby have become absolutely good spirits. Since they became a unified community, as the seventy disciples at the time of Jesus had, they have more organizational power to work from the spirit world. Blessed families cannot stand properly if they do not liberate their ancestors. Blessed families cannot properly take their position if they don’t liberate their ancestors and, unless they bless their ancestors to make them absolutely good spirits, they cannot become families who can attend the Cosmic Parent and you, the Parents of Heaven and Earth.
The blessed families on earth should do everything in their power to attend you and expand the territory and sovereignty of Cheon Il Guk. They should constantly acknowledge the support of their ancestors in the spirit world and consult them often in order to work together in full cooperation. They should deeply realize the great, precious power of the absolutely good spirits and participate as much as possible in ancestral liberation and blessings. They should also attend workshops provided by the Cheong Pyeong Training Center, cleanse the numerous sins and crimes committed by their ancestors and strive to sever the fallen nature and evil spirits within their bodies.
The Importance of the Movement to Break Through in Grassroots Activities
Through the Cheong Pyeong providence opened by you, the Parents of Heaven and Earth, 120 billion couples have become absolutely good spirits through the blessing, and the world is now making fast progress toward the world of goodness. In the past, there were no absolutely good spirits and there was no one on earth who could make the declarations to open the doors to the spirit world, so evil continued to grow and flourish.
However, you have now opened the way, making declarations, and establishing all the necessary conditions. Consequently, the number of absolutely good spirits has greatly increased and the time has come when the good spirit world, in the realm of goodness, is powerfully expanding its scope of activities.
This is a hopeful age when dreams come true. This is the time when blessed families can reap what they sow. I know that blessed families have worked hard for God’s will up to now. However, they should once again collect themselves and understand the importance of this time precisely. If they and the absolutely good spirits can dedicate their hearts, bodies and mindsets, and witness with zeal, amazing works will be done. With endless love for humanity, you, the Parents of Heaven and Earth, have devoted yourselves without reserve to establish the foundation for blessed families to work simultaneously in the spirit world and on earth.
You have declared the beginning of the nation of the fourth Israel, which was the hope of the first, second and third Israels. In these amazing times, blessed families, as owners of Cheon Il Guk, should strive to break through in witnessing activities on the local, grassroots level. The nation of the fourth Israel should fulfill the responsibilities that were not accomplished by the first, second and third Israels and be actively involved in witnessing with the help of those in the spiritual world.
The declaration of the fourth Israel has enabled the spirit world and the physical world to become one in heart, will and body; and we must all do Tongban Gyeokpa in order to establish the fourth Israel and fulfill our responsibility. Blessed families must be aware of and deeply feel the urgency within their consciousness that “I” am the owner of the movement to break through on the grassroots level. As blessed families offer their devoted effort, they must go forward with the attitude that they will absolutely bring victory through their absolute love, absolute faith and absolute obedience.
Blessed families must be deeply aware that you, the Parents of Heaven and Earth, are doing away with the world of human diseases, suffering, misery and pain and are building up the world of love, order, peace and freedom. Blessed families should have a sense of responsibility for the providence of restoration and should share the pain of people in their neighborhoods who are sick, suffering, in misery or anguish. Blessed families should take up the cross for those who are in need. In addition, as blessed families see the difficulties of their neighbors, they must feel determined to absolutely solve these difficulties as if they were their own.
Blessed families must approach the movement to break through in grassroots activities [Tongban Gyeokpa] with the mentality that they will take responsibility for their neighbors. There is nothing more valuable than witnessing to and changing the blood lineage of one’s neighbors. If, at this time, blessed families expand their witnessing activities to make a breakthrough in their local area, the spirit world will strongly support them. For example, if Christians, Confucianists, Buddhists, Muslims, Hindus, and followers of other religions participate in these grassroots activities, representatives in the spirit world of their religions and absolutely good spirits belonging to those religions will cooperate with them to do great works.
Blessed families should be tithing not only money but also their time and energy in local activities. Accordingly, blessed families should offer at least three hours a day for the sake of their neighbors—consistently conveying the Unification Principle, holding hoondok meetings and educating them about true love. God desires that blessed families educate, witness to, and bless their neighbors in order to establish the kingdom of heaven on earth, where the hearts of all people overflow with peace, joy and happiness. This is God’s deepest desire and the way to build a true family. Only when there are righteous families and public order can the foundation for the kingdom of heaven be established.
We members should first lead exemplary lives. If we live correctly, the spirit world can cooperate with us and we will then have a sufficient base to establish Cheon Il Guk through the hoondok home church movement. This is the way we can all build the fourth Israel.
I would like to express my deep gratitude to you for opening the Cheong Pyeong Heaven and Earth Training Center and Cheongshim Hospital in accordance with the flow of the providence. People who suffer from the spiritual and physical diseases caused by the Fall may now be healed so that they can live in joy and happiness.
Ninety percent of human diseases originate from spiritual problems. Resentful spirits and evil spirits dwell within people’s physical bodies. As time passes, their negative influence becomes more powerful. This causes spiritual and physical diseases, which can eventually lead to premature death. During the dedication ceremony of the Cheongshim Hospital, you rejoiced, saying, “Finally, people can now be saved from suffering and disease.”
In accordance with your instructions, we will center on the Cheong Pyeong Heaven and Earth Training Center and the Cheongshim Hospital and push forward the spiritual medical work made possible through the work of the absolutely good spirits and the medical doctors and nurse angels. We will do this to enable all humankind to live in joy and happiness. Blessed families must remember that only if they attend you and stand in the position to receive heavenly fortune by living lives of absolute faith, absolute love and absolute obedience can such works to be possible. They should thus live lives of filial piety toward you, our Parents of Heaven and Earth. Blessed families should know that they are the ones holding the key to solve all problems and should, thus work diligently.
Most beloved and honorable Parents of Heaven and Earth, the spirit world has now entered an age where the spirits here immediately respond to the teachings and declarations of the Parents of Heaven and Earth. Therefore, the blessed families should understand that we are now living in an incredible time when God’s providence is clearly illuminated both on earth and in the spirit world. Hence, blessed families should attend the Parents of Heaven and Earth and do their very best to testify about them to all humankind.
My siblings and I are constantly thinking about how to best fulfill our filial duties and responsibilities, and make God and you, the Parents of Heaven and Earth, happy. We will do our utmost so you can always rejoice. At the same time, we shall invest our whole hearts and power to assist you in realizing whatever you desire while you are on earth.
I hope that blessed families will attend you, the victorious Parent of Heaven and Earth, and together with the absolutely good spirits and the angels, work together to fulfill their missions as tribal messiahs. That is the tradition of the life you have shown us—the life of absolute faith, absolute love and absolute obedience.
After the Coronation of the King of the Blessed Families of the Peace and Unity of the Cosmic True Parent and the True Parents of Heaven and Earth, you bequeathed God and your names, words, and accomplishments with your royal Cheon Il Guk seal to the spirit world, centered on the absolutely good spirits and to the blessed families on earth. Through this inheritance, both the spirit world, centered on the absolute spirits, and the blessed families on earth will become one and make more effort towards the complete liberation of the whole. We will encourage our blessed families to hold hoondok home church activities in Korea, Japan and the United States, the central nations of the world-level providence, and to keep in step with the new providential developments centering on the Family Party. We will also encourage them to build the internal Cheon Il Guk and the external fourth Israel by establishing the absolute, unique, unchanging and eternal sovereignty.
My siblings and I, as well as the founders of the five great religions, the sages, blessed families of absolutely good spirits, and the angels will combine all of our strength and work diligently to fulfill our responsibilities to quickly complete the construction of the Original Palace in Cheong Pyeong, where you can safely rest.
Dearest Parents of Heaven and Earth, please believe in us and receive now only glory. May you live long, long lives in good health.
