[Dr. Hendricks and legal department:] The following is a report about Region 2-3 (New York-New Jersey) leaders meeting Oct. 26, 1999. It is not an official HQ statement, but we are sending it out to keep all members informed of what we are doing here.

I want to express appreciation to you for your hard work.

I want to share with you my perspective on True Father's recent providence. Father came back from Uruguay a few days ago and many of you attended his speech Sunday morning at Belvedere as I did. I don't know how much of the speech you understood or how much of the present providence you could digest. For me, I thought Father emphasized just one thing -- the coming of the era of the 4th Adam. That was his start and that was his conclusion.

Actually, from September we have gotten so much grace and blessings from True Father, especially centering on America. Father proclaimed 9.9 Jeol and 9.10 Jeol. On September 14, Father gave us permission to pray in our own name! Since then, Father emphasized that it was the time when we finish indemnity and all restoration. We are about to start a new world, the ideal world, which is the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth. It is my understanding that, according to God's providence, the Kingdom of Heaven will begin from the year 2000. But actually Father gained the victory to begin the Kingdom on September 9. At that time, Father finished the former era. But Father is giving us the extra time, this interim period, to prepare for the next era. The main point that Father made Sunday is that this is the time to liberate all people, and all things, and Heaven.

On October 23 at East Garden Father made holy candy. At that time, Father took two bowls and in one he put holy wine and in the other he put holy candy. Father gave us another explanation for holy candy. So far we have used holy candy to bless the people (or we say pre-bless). That day Father said the candy is not only for the blessing but to liberate people. He gave a seed holy candy which was then multiplied and given to us.

Father then said that from all the 360 million couples that have been blessed each family must bring at least one matched couple to the 400 million couples Blessing and also distribute holy candy to all people in the world.

Father also said that from now we can use holy wine to sanctify, to spiritually separate, not only people but all things, just as we have used holy salt. In fact, I felt that this is the holy salt of the Completed Testament age. True Parents put their hands in the holy wine and went outside sprinkling it everywhere, on the grounds, on the trees and flowers, Then we came back inside and Father sprinkled it all about in the dining room. Father then told us we were next! So we were sprinkled with the holy wine.

Using the holy salt separated things from the satanic dominion to God's dominion. But the purpose of the holy wine is to change the blood lineage. It is the time now to liberate, and not only that, but to change roots. Just as in this year's motto, we change the roots. Father is actually accomplishing this year's motto. The 4th Adam era is now starting. The era of the first Adam was the fallen one. The era of the second Adam was Jesus with the chosen people. The era of the third Adam was True Parents and was the period of the restoration through indemnity. We had three stages of growing. The first Adam was below all the three stages; the second Adam brought the people to the top of the growth stage; and the third Adam brought us to the bottom of the perfection level. Now we are about to enter the realm of God's Direct Dominion. This means each person must take responsibility. As we move into perfection, we are moving into the era of the 4th Adam.

There are about 70 days remaining until the year 2000. What do we do in these 70 days? In order to join in this new world, the ideal world, all of us as blessed couples must prepare to start this new world with conditions. That is Father's direction for us. So in this 70-day period, we will liberate all the people, all things, and the spiritual world. Mobilize yourself, Father said, and don't think about your personal life or your family. Offer yourself in dedication, and make the proper preparation for the next world.

This is my understanding of what Father was speaking about Sunday morning October 24. Please have a clear concept about the providential timing. After the next Blessing Father will totally start a new world.

On October 23, Father declared it to be The Day of Blessing and Liberation of the Entire Cosmos. So within the next 70 days we are to attend and participate in liberating everything and everyone and then we take our results and connect those results with the providence and the incoming new world. That's why Father is allowing us to pray in our own name. From now on, what we fulfill, and the result we get from taking responsibility, is not only going to go to True Parents but is going directly to our own credit and is connecting directly with the providence.

Personally, whenever I pray in my own name, I feel such serious responsibility. We have to have a feeling of satisfaction and be keeping a certain standard and be bringing some results, in order to pray in our own name. Otherwise, it is going to be very difficult and we might feel some accusation and wonder if we are qualified to pray in our own name.

This is the providential time we are now confronted with. So please be deeply understanding of Father's concerns and Father's directions. This is the time to mobilize all blessed couples, to fulfill the victory in this world and be prepared to go into the new world.

We have just completed a 40-day condition of witnessing and prayer in our region and are now entering into another 40-day condition. In the last 40-day period, True Father not only declared the 9.9 and 9.10 Jeol but he made the decision to have God's Day celebration in America; and decided to bring the Japanese missionaries. God and True Parents can now settle on the Earth. With so much grace coming from them, we really need to seriously keep conditions in this next 40-day period. District leaders can lead members to new standards.

Our leadership needs a new determination, with a new kind of jungsung. Once we offer this kind of jungsung and unity to God and True Parents, then I believe 100% that the spiritual world will open everything to us. Even though we may have external unity, if we don't have this jungsung it is difficult to get the proper results; this is what I have experienced. We must focus on these things. We have to feel Father's suffering and his desperation to have us ready to enter the new era of the 4th Adam. This must be our focus for the next 70 days. Father has one condition to be fulfilled and that is to liberate the entire Cosmos! He is pushing us to go with him, follow his directions. He is showing us how to do this through the example of the Japanese missionaries.

The missionaries were given directions to arrive here in America within 10 days. They came as they were directed. It was not explained to them why they were being called or exactly what they were to do. They trusted and came. This is the example we must follow. On that point, just on that point, we in America should unite with these sisters and support them. Then we can inherit their spirit of absolute faith and absolute obedience. Otherwise what hope do we have. When you compare your standard with theirs, you can immediately feel the difference.

As a regional director, I feel I have a good standard but sometimes when I compare my situation with the Japanese missionaries, I learn from them. Please try to keep this kind of heartistic standard and spread this around to others under your leadership.

Our purpose in having this meeting together as leaders is to share what is happening, to share Father's directions and to share Father's providence. After sharing these things, what should we do? Just enjoy what we have learned? No, we are to spread it around to others. We have to communicate and unite with all our members. We can teach the members to reach a higher standard. This is our responsibility. We have a serious situation in communicating with members.

More Japanese sisters are coming. We have to prepare for this. Not just externally but internally we must prepare. We have to reach a stable, united level of spirit for them to come to. Otherwise, how can we unite with them and work together? How can we inherit from them and prepare for the coming new era?

Please be serious and desperate to mobilize yourself. Mobilize your members. American members are needed to help with guests and to do many things with the Japanese members. When the missionaries return to their own country who will be the spiritual parents of the new members? Let's revive within ourselves the spirit we once had many years ago to fervently go out to witness and spread the good news! Knock on the doors! Spiritual power is there. We need this spirit now more than ever.

Let's revive and renew our spiritual standard.
