True Mother’s Message at the Heavenly Top Gun Kick-Off Ceremony 2024 which was held at CheonBo Heaven and Earth Training center on on February 22, 2024
Heaven has bestowed blessings and love on this day, in the 12th year of Cheon Il Guk, the Year of the Blue Dragon.
Both heaven and earth have become white and clean, with everything false and dark concealed. Likewise, Heaven loves you, who are white, clean, pure water. Thanks to Heaven’s blessings, heaven and earth have become whiter than ever before. Seeing the white snow-clad land as I came down from Cheon Jeong Gung to the Cheonseong Wangrim Palace Training Center, I could feel how much Heavenly Parent has looked forward to this day and wishes to rejoice with his children.
The Creator had a dream. After creating the heavens and the earth, God created Adam and Eve, who were to become our first ancestors. God gave them a period of growth, and waited for them to perfect their characters by themselves.
However, they could not achieve this. In the 6,000 years of human history, of providential history, there has never been a day of peace. Many lives have been lost around the world due to war, conflict, and ideological confrontation. Due to this reality and the Principle of Creation requiring the fulfillment of the Creator’s dream, God was compelled to carry out the work of the providence of salvation. It took God 4,000 years to send his only begotten son, Jesus Christ, of whom God could say “This is my Son,” from among fallen humanity.
However, Mary who was the mother of Jesus, Joseph, Zechariah’s family, and the people of Israel were not aware of Jesus’ essence. In the end, Jesus, who had lost everything, had no choice but to go to the cross. He died, yet promised to return. The 2,000 years of Christian history began with people waiting for Christ’s promised return.
Christianity began with the apostles’ resurrection by the Holy Spirit. Though Jesus clearly stated he was returning and what he would do upon his return, Christians did not know what that meant. As a result, over its 2,000 years, Christianity made mistakes. The Reformation was therefore inevitable. The Catholic Church had imposed a complex process for practicing the faith. The desire among individuals and families to attend God more deeply resulted in the Reformation. Consequently, the Puritan Movement moved to America, the new world. The Puritans first built a church where they could attend God, then a school for their children, and finally homes in which to live. On the basis of their lives of serving Heaven with all devotion and sincerity, God blessed them and today, the United States has become a powerful democratic nation.
As there must be no further mistakes or failures in the environment to which the Messiah returns, the world has moved beyond the era of monarchs ruling alone. Democratic nations have emerged and many countries gained their independence after World Wars I and II.
It is for this reason that the Protestant faith has spread throughout the world. Despite Jesus Christ’s desire to return and hold the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, he could not return through the people of Israel, where the only begotten son had met his end, as they had an indemnity offering to make…
As a result, Heaven blessed the Korean people on the Korean Peninsula in the East, who had long been a people of goodness who revered Heaven. Through them, God brought the only begotten daughter to be born in 1943. [Applause]
Being the only begotten daughter, I have known God as my parent since I was born. Therefore, I do not have a teacher. Heavenly Parent is everything to me. Heavenly Parent waited until I was mature enough to take on responsibility on my own. It may not be clear to you when that time was, but those of our 1st generation in their eighties will know. At that time, the Korean people were under Japanese colonial rule, and were liberated in 1945.
I was born in 1943. At the time, I was in the north, near Pyongyang. Korea, however, was divided into North and South, between communism and democracy. Although many of its leaders were former independence fighters, the North allied with the Soviet Union. In contrast, the South started as a democratic country centered on the United States which had led the UN forces. In those days, North Korea united around one person, Kim Il Sung, and he was preparing to invade the South. The South, however, had several prominent men who had participated in the independence movement, but no system was in place. Under such circumstances North Korea made preparations to invade the South, leading to the outbreak of the Korean War in 1950.
I was in the North at that time, but I came South under God’s protection in 1948. The Korean War broke out two years later. Here in the South, Father’s mission was to fulfill the mission he had received from Jesus at the age of 15, which was to fulfill what Jesus had wanted to accomplish on earth. That was the path of the returning Messiah. The person with the mission of the returning Messiah should ideally not have a family before meeting the only begotten daughter. This situation, however, occurred in the South. God asked Father to go to the North. Why so?
After a time of witnessing in North Korea, Father in the end went to the Hungnam labor camp, and then eventually, due to the intervention of the UN forces, he could move to the South. In Busan, Father wrote the Wolli Wonbon and eventually established the Holy Spirit Association for the Unification of [World] Christianity. Father received the date of the Holy Wedding as the 16th day of the 3rd month in 1960. Father, however, was not in a position to decide on his bride. Thus he could not select anyone. This situation was not resolved until the last moment, with only one day left before the Holy Wedding…. Back then I was a student, living in a dormitory. A lady came to see me, telling me that my mother was ill and near death and asking me to come. Consequently, I excused myself, only to discover that it was not my mother that was in critical condition; rather, it was True Father’s situation that was critical.
They had received the date of the Holy Wedding, but there was still no bride. Looking at the situation, I thought of Heavenly Parent’s heart and circumstances based on my 17 years of relationship with Heavenly Parent. Consequently, I was asked to help the providence, which could not be delayed any further. So I resolved to do it…. Had I not done so, it would not have been possible. Only if I stepped forward could Heavenly Parent’s dream be realized, and God’s providence completed. I knew I must step forward, so I said “I will do this.”
Please think about this. For a 17-year-old to marry a 40-year-old is not easy, is it? Nevertheless, I knew the circumstances and the desire of Heavenly Parent who had been with me; I made that decision. That is how True Parents emerged on the 16th day of the 3rd month [by the lunar calendar] in 1960. And many blessed families have been given birth as a result. [Applause]
Although I was the only begotten daughter who should see the completion of the True Parents’ providence, I could not say that I was the only begotten daughter. Rather than me, it should have been my spouse who said this…. Thus, the 53-year history of the Unification Church can be viewed as a wilderness period. It emerged as a male-oriented time. The Principle of Creation, however, teaches about man and woman, the only begotten son and daughter. The 53-year history of the Unification Church was thus a wilderness period. During this time we could only put tents up.
As a result, Heaven… Who opened Foundation Day? (Mother~) Heaven instructed me to open Foundation Day. [Applause] I proclaimed Cheon Il Guk. Moreover, to see the fulfillment of the firm settlement and completion of Cheon Il Guk, I must show this to you. Therefore, I needed to expand the earthly environment of the heavenly kingdom here in the Cheonwon complex where the victorious True Parents, in attendance of Heavenly Parent, live together with their children in the kingdom of God on earth. To do this, I needed to build a palace where Heavenly Parent can reside. However, no one understood my situation.
In addition, it is not easy for the Unification Church to obtain a permit from the government for the construction of a palace. So we thought to begin with creating a museum. However, as it was also necessary for me to expand the environment externally I traveled the path of the global mission. I decided to go to Africa, which is the continent that is the least developed economically. What is more, wasn’t it Senegal, a Muslim country? I went to a Muslim nation and my first statement to them was “I am the only begotten daughter.” As I explained Heaven’s providence in front of the religious leaders and the nation’s president, I told them I am the only begotten daughter. They welcomed me and became my sons. [Applause]
Moreover, because I also have to restore the Christian world, I told Archbishop Ndanga and Prophet Radebe, who have more than four million followers, “I am the only begotten daughter. Therefore, please proclaim the only begotten daughter.” And they did so. [Applause]
Also, the Muslim realm is aware of this. They recognize that God’s providence is ultimately fulfilled through the only begotten daughter. This is why they welcome the only begotten daughter and say they wish to include her in their scriptures. [Applause]
To this day, the history of fallen humanity has been dominated by men. Therefore, we have never seen a day of peace. Wars are raging.
Religion is no different. Religions emerged being dominated by men. Yet our Creator’s Principle of Creation is based on pairs. Therefore, the fulfillment of God’s providence that Christianity and all religions have failed to realize and the end of fallen human history that cannot be achieved by men alone can only be accomplished through my presence. Only through the only begotten daughter, the mother of the universe and the mother of peace, can unity be achieved. [Applause]
Although the man has the seed, it is the mother who gives birth to new life. Life comes into being through the mother. You need to be aware of this. All the twisted and wrong aspects of human history, the history of fallen humankind, will be untangled and reorganized one by one through the only begotten daughter, the mother of the universe and the mother of peace. And a world of one great family of humankind that attends Heavenly Parent will certainly be realized.
After Father’s ascension I sold Father’s helicopter. What was the first thing I did with the money? Did I not create the Wonmo Scholarship Foundation and use it toward your education? Have I not told you that you are pure water born through your parents, whom True Parents blessed?
Pure water should not be still. Water must flow. It must flow out to the higher, wider world. If through you, the pure water, the fallen world is purified one nation at a time and the environment emerges wherein people come to know about True Parents and attend Heavenly Parent, what would that be? Isn’t that the kingdom of heaven on earth? [Applause]
Here, what matters most is that I believe in you, love you, and have raised you as very important treasures. The problem lies, however, in whether the environment where people can attend Heavenly Parent, the kingdom of heaven on earth, expands while True Parents are still on earth. True Mother is now over 80 years old. I have to live a long life, but how much longer will I be able to live? When I ascend to Heaven, I would like to be able to say with pride that you, the pure water, have become one with me and have expanded, to a certain number among the 8 billion people of the world, the environment in which people can attend Heavenly Parent. [Applause] Will you do this? (Yes.)
Ah~ I have waited so long to hear your beautiful, soaring voices… Thank you. [Applause]
[Additional message]
I know for some of you, particularly those from Heavenly South America, that this is your first time experiencing ten to twenty centimeters of snow, isn’t it? God has blessed you with this gift.
Today is the day when the Heavenly Top Gun are having their kick-off ceremony for their overseas missions. So I cannot just send them off with this program alone. Taking time for a game of Yut is the way to bring everyone together.
Various groups here and there, including the Korean Headquarters, provided support for this. So I have a little money. As a result, I am going to give you some big prize money for the Yut game. Please try your best. [Applause]
