The Words of the Beutl Family |
Dear Pres. and Mrs. Song, dear Tim Miller,
According to Kook Jin Nim's lecture, the society True Parents are talking about without laws and a police force is a self-regulating society where police are not needed and laws are minimized to a large extent. He speaks of a society of conscience without laws, judge and police-men and says, "The closest approximation of what True Parents describe would be a self-regulating society." For which 3 ingredients are required: private property, free markets, and competition which creates self-regulation. In the free market competition people have to work hard to make their product better than anybody else's. This concept of self-regulation can be applied also to education, etc.
God gave freedom to Adam and Eve and not even He could stop the Fall because it was man's responsibility not to listen to the lie of the archangel. Through America God wanted to show what the Kingdom of Heaven could be like but freedom was systematically destroyed because the ideology of the Lord of the Second Advent was not received. Even religions are supporting domination by the archangel -- as they don't recognize how Satan is working in their midst.
Kook Jin Nim says, "It is the principle and the understanding of the Principle that lets us resist the temptation of the archangel." And exactly this understanding needs to be applied today when dealing with the reality and practice of our church.
As Father explained, according to the Principle, the Korean elders are in the position of archangel towards the members who are in the position of Adam and Eve. Instead of behaving as an unfallen archangel the majority of our leadership has proven through their actions that they are embodying the spirit of the archangel who dominated God's children. This fact can be easily seen by having a closer look at the reality of our movement in Europe.
According to Kook Jin Nim, we should secure a transparent society where the government has to be reduced to an absolute minimum. Dear Pres. Song and Tim Miller, what about applying this standard to our church? The role of the leadership as the governing body should be reduced to an absolute minimum in line with the criteria which chairman Kook Jin Moon has pointed out in his lecture where he asked, "In the Garden of Eden, what is God's desire? Did He want Lucifer to own everything? Whom did he want to give ownership over everything?" the answer is clear: Adam and Eve.
But the archangel did not like that. What was his vision? That he owns everything. This is communism, socialism,… Satan's world, the archangel dominated world because that is the desire of the archangel to own everything himself. Satan's vision of the world is where the government owns everything. God's vision of the ideal world is the freedom society...
One hour 8 minutes into the recording uploaded at vimeo.com/44852757 a lecture slide is presented with God's and Satan's different visions for the ideal world whereby in Satan's ideal we find 100% government ownership, and in God's ideal a Freedom Society with 90-93% private ownership. Kook Jin Nim says that in the Kingdom of Heaven you need the archangel but he has to be in the servant position. You need the government to preserve a modicum of laws to make private property possible. The task of the government is to protect the private property by the people, for the people, of the people.
And then he asks, "Why do we need the Unification Church?" and explains, "It is the religion for the future, the only religion which all people can really come to believe in. Why? What's the reason? Only the Principle of the Unification Church can teach the people how to resist the temptation of the archangel."
Concerning this point I would like you to consider: Why hasn't the Principle then helped all those who gave in to temptation? How well did Rev Kwak do, as the actual 'Director of Education' for the Unification Church and many others who subsequently fell after hearing the Principle? Without creating a culture of heart and the give and take of love, just like the original commandment, man won't necessarily be able to resist temptation nor want to. The Kingdom of Heaven is not a teaching per se, it's the ability to live and practice it.
Adam and Eve without factoring in the Fall still needed to love each other, living for the sake of the other to build the Heavenly Kingdom. Just overcoming Satan's temptation is not enough. Many brothers and sisters, husbands and wives have remained faithful and have not fallen but still we haven't built the Kingdom of Heaven. Why? Because we don't truly love each other. God's Kingdom exists in relationships not the absence of them or a particular type of relationship.
Kook Jin Nim continued: "The Unification Church and the Unification Theology is the only ideology on earth that can teach people of the world how to reject the temptation of government. That is why the Unification Church and the understanding of the Unification Principle, is the only way to create the Kingdom of Heaven on earth."
Yes, this statement would be true if there is the correct understanding of the Principle. But already three and a half decades ago Father spoke out against this false understanding, stating that such a principle that a leader is automatically Abel, in the position to give commands that others have to follow, does not exist, as it is recorded on page 465 of the important publication God's Will and the World, quoting from the speech, "A Day When We Welcome The Blessing" under the subtitle, An Abel is known by his love. "… Japanese leaders – aren't you teaching a principle that I do not teach, when you say" I am Abel because I'm church leader. You are Cain. Cain obeys Abel. This is the Principle so obey." There is no such principle. The person who does not fulfil his mission and become the embodiment of love is not Abel." (Japan, September 22, 1978)
Only the right understanding of the Unification Principle enables us to create the Kingdom of Heaven on earth. As long as we follow a false understanding of the Principle which claims that leaders are in the position of Abel whose commands must be followed we will not be able to establish God's Kingdom or Cheon Il Guk.
Already in the 1983 Children's Day speech Father old us: "Do not pay attention to anyone, including leaders, who do not obey me; those who don't listen to me but insist on doing things their own way should be kicked out. Even if they are Korean or Japanese leaders, it doesn't matter. The precious leaders are those who are following God's will."
But still we are following leaders who are not doing the Will of God but pursuing their own interests which may seem God-centered at first sight but upon having a closer look, it is unmistakably clear that the spirit of the archangel is present who wants to control and dominate everything, which is obvious when looking at how our movement is being run in Europe. This is not a theory but can be seen by what has happened in many countries to various degrees, leading to the situation in one nation under your responsibility about which the father of a blessed family commented in the following way:
"Hello Nicolaus, thank you for your article about an open letter to Pres. Song, his wife and Tim Miller. It is long overdue that somebody says what you say in your letter to them. The problem is, that Pres. Song is not doing anything for Europe, I mean, literally. The whole European Unification movement is like a Moon Clan Fan club, travelling together with the True Parents whenever they come to Europe. It is like Manchester United Football club fans travelling from city to city cheering for their team wherever they are playing. Unificationists travel from city to city to cheer the True Family when they visit Europe. In other times, every one is just sitting home waiting to be told what to do. And if somebody really wants to do something the leaders stop them from doing exactly how you point out in your articles.
This happened exactly in [name of the country] when our National Leader [name] four years ago stopped our brother [name of one brother to whose exemplary dedication to God's Will I can testify] from doing Ocean Church with Father's boats. And when he could not stop [name of this brother] from doing that, he called the Regional Leader [name] and Tim Miller from the European Office here and they pounded him for hours on end in true Mafia-style to make him stop serving the [name of the country] young people with Father's boats. It is incredible what kind of cruelty the Unification Church leaderhip is capable of doing. It is outrageous. Particularly it is hurting to me because I was one of the 24 original Ocean Church missionaries that Father personally picked on Oct. 1st, 1980 in North Garden in Gloucester, USA. On the 2nd of January 1981 at 9 am there was a meeting of Ocean Church in the World Mission Center in Manhattan with Father, and he started by saying that now we see how important he considers us that we are the first group of people he meets in the new year after the God's Day celebrations on the 1st of January. Can you imagine, Nicolaus, that 25 years later a brother is attacked by the leaders from National, Regional and Continental level for being inspired by Father's example and wanting to follow in True Father's footsteps.
And a couple of weeks after that event [name of the national leader] even told him that it is better that this brother leaves the movement!!! Can you imagine a National Leader kicking a brother with three children out of the movement? That's how bad it is here!!! All these leaders that I mentioned before should be in a jail… They have no business to be leaders in any religious movement. They should be out of the movement, and not the members. And because they still could not stop him, the leaders organized 'Let's criticise [name of that truly exemplary brother]-event' with an open invitation that whoever wants to criticise him is welcome. At that event there were present the Regional Leader, the National Leader and a Japanese National Messiah, and for hours on they attacked [name of this brother] 'for disturbing peace in the Movement'. This is straight from the text books of Chinese communists. Before the Chinese Communists finish off with somebody they organize a 'critique session'. This was an exact copy of that.
So all of this is the exact opposite when Dae Mo Nim says that do not hurt your brother's or sister's heart. These leaders think that they can do whatever they want and that they are above all the laws of the universe. That's how cruel they are! It is incredible. These leaders do not believe in God (in order to love their brother), or True Parents (because they do not let a brother carry out Father's instructions, or Dae Mo Nim. The leaders in the Unification Movement are extremely cruel and corrupt bunch of people.
I list here all the things the leadership has done in my country in the last five years: their leaderships practices are closer to Mafia and Chinese communists and Stalinists for only Stalin was trying to liquidate his closest people. Being a member in the [name of the country] Unification Movement is close to absurdity. … leader … has nothing to do with the local people, even attacking us, when we want to do something. And whenever we meet in somebody's home to talk he gets suspicious that we are making our own group. According to my own knowledge of psychology our NL is exhibiting paranoid, psychopathic, megalomanic symptoms. This is exactly what he is. And every member has to suffer because of him. And the leaders are happy with that of course, because they are probably the same."
I removed the details which would reveal which country this person is sharing about, closing his letter with the statement: "I am ready to testify in any place wherever the CRIMES of the Unification Movement leaders are exposed and handled."
Dear Pres. and Mrs. Song, dear. Tim Miller, how many letters of this kind from members under your responsibility do you need to read until you take it to heart that there are very serious issues that need to be addressed because they point clearly to an Archangel-type leadership in our church?
Yours sincerely,
Nikolaus
