Dr. Bo Hi Pak is a former South Korean diplomat to the United States. Dr. Pak came of age during the Korean War when as a military cadet he received a battlefield commission to defend against the invading communist forces of North Korea. After only three days of battle, two-thirds of his classmates were killed. After his life was miraculously spared, he determined to serve God and fulfill the higher purpose for which he felt his life had been spared. Dr. Pak serves as principal assistant and translator to Reverend Moon and personally testifies to the spiritual leader's lifestyle and worldwide activities. Messiah is an autobiographical account of Dr. Bo Hi Pak's more than forty-year association with the Reverend Sun Myung Moon, founder of the Unification Church.
