Note: From Nov. 10-12, the 2nd 'Special Workshop for the New Beginning of Cheon Il Guk Blessed Families' was held at the Cheonseong Wanglim Palace (Heavenly Palace). On the 11th, the second day of the Workshop, Dae Mo Nim spoke on the importance of life following the Holy Wine Ceremony, and emphasized that we should try to have everyone take part in the forgiveness this time.

Annyeonghaseyo, I believe you are aware of the kind of period this period is. True Parents originally spoke of a 40-day fast and a 40-day workshop as conditions for the great pardon this time. Knowing the heart of True Parents, when I heard their words, I set an indemnity condition, and suggested (to True Parents) that the members might do a 1-day fast and 2-night, 3-day Workshop, so that it would be easier for everyone to take part in this forgiveness. Those who are aged, weak or pregnant, and really cannot fast for a day, may fast breakfast for 3-days, but the others must do a 1-day fast.

Brothers and Sisters, this blessing granted to us at this time will be the first and the final. If you say, 'There will probably be another one,' that is mistaken thought. It was not easy for me to offer devotions to the extent that Satan could not accuse, while preparing for this pardon. We must know that True Parents will not grant us this kind of a blessing in the future, once more.

We will have a Holy Wine Ceremony during this 'Special Workshop for the New Beginning of Cheon Il Guk Blessed Families,' however, our life following the Holy Wine Ceremony is more important. During the period of this Workshop, I ask that you reflect on 'How have I lived since receiving the Blessing,' and that you come up with your future life plan. I ask that we can become members who can go the way of absolute faith, absolute love and absolute obedience.

If someone had told Adam and Eve who fell, to go before God [and confess], restoration would have already been completed. After receiving the Blessing, if we, who were without absolute faith, absolute love, absolute obedience, and not united in heart, body and mindset with God and True Parents, were left the way we were, there would be a possibility that we might commit sin. Someone must play an intermediary role, and must open the way to receive the blessing before True Parents again. This indeed, is the 'Special Workshop for the New Beginning of Cheon Il Guk Blessed Families.' Until today, God has been hoping every single day, that all humanity would be restored to the state that God created them to be.

Since the Fall of Adam and Eve, does our appearance and state, with inherited sin, collective sin, individual sin, fallen nature, all of the spirits within our bodies, really resemble God?

True Parents, who are the Messiah whom God has sent, have set indemnity conditions, saying, 'We will help you remove original sin first, so you must remove your inherited sin, collective sin, individual sin and fallen nature. If you have absolute faith, absolute love, absolute obedience, and can become one with True Parents in heart, body and mindset; if you have the heart to live for the sake of others all of your life, you yourself can remove your inherited sin, collective sin and fallen nature.' Nevertheless, we have separated from God, not being able to unite as one with God.

Therefore, True Parents who know well about heaven and hell in the spiritual world, about good and evil, may have been hoping that someone would appear, setting a condition, and would say, 'Forgive us, Father! Please allow us to clean up all traces of sin completely.' Chung Pyung Heaven and Earth Training Center, being in the position of knowing the spirit world, could not just stand by and ignore this situation.

What we must sort out during this period, is the fact that we have not been able to fulfill true families. As Blessed Families, not one Family among us should be disobedient before True Parents. The loving husband and wife, and the loving parents and children, should have become one in heart, body and mindset. In order to fulfill a true family, the husband must absolutely love the wife. There is no reason in absolute love. It is to love without any condition. The wife must return only beauty to the husband. Parents must love the children with beautiful love, and the children attend the parents with filial piety and love; such a family is the true family.

We have all been living with fallen nature. After receiving the Blessing, we should have been gentle, meek and humble. There should not have been feelings of envy, anger, hate, lies, greed, egocentric mind, arrogance, discontent, complaints, and so on.

You should never drink, smoke or do drugs. These lead to illnesses, lead to immorality, fallen nature, and produce evil in all aspects of life. I ask that you understand this clearly, and from now on, never drink, smoke or do drugs.

Never resort to immoral acts. If you look, touch, take and eat, you will die spiritually. You should be the kind of person who covers your body before everyone except your family.

You should fear public money. God has said, 'Even the tithing donation is public money.' Some members think, 'Because our finances are suffering, we don't have to tithe.' However, if you offer the tithing, God will grant that family greater blessings.

God has also said that we must not trample on other's feelings/violate other's hearts. Those who have been talking needlessly and thoughtlessly until now must repent through the Holy Wine Ceremony. The illnesses and pain we see today are the results of the mistakes in the lives of our ancestors. From now on, we must speak only good words, words for the sake of others.

We must live a life of attendance to God and True Parents. We should lead a life of reporting, saying, 'God! I think I should do this in such and such a way, but what do you think?' If you have give and take with God, bad things will not occur.

You must go to church without fail from now on. Sundays are God's days. On God's days, you should go to church. If you miss going to church, once, twice even on Sundays, Satan and evil will begin to follow you as a result. Satan says things like, 'its cold, raining, snowing, so why go to church? There's a good show on TV, so don't bother to go,' or 'The pastor never did anything for you, so why go?' But you must overcome these tests by Satan. God waits for his children at church.

By attending the pastor and elder families, and loving younger families, we must live a life in which Cain and Abel can become one. Only then can we resolve the history of the past. The pardon this time is to sort out all things, and bring us back to the original point when we received the Blessing. Members who received the Registration Blessing should work towards the position of Registration, and those who have not yet received the Registration Blessing should receive it, and proceed to the road of completion/perfection. The Workshop this time is an amazing spiritual work that creates the environment to enable a new start.

From now on, we must become Blessed Families who will become owners of Cheon Il Guk, abiding by the content I mentioned today, who will live in joy and happiness in the 'Aju' Era in which you can report in your own names before God and True Parents, as owners of Cheon Il Guk. Is that clear? ('Yes!') This time, all of you have come to receive a blessing. I ask that you participate in the Workshop with the mindset, 'I must sort out everything through the Holy Wine Ceremony, become a truly humane human being, i.e., a citizen of Heaven, and make sure to enter into Heaven.'

Brothers and Sisters, during this special period, please discard the thinking that, 'It's enough that only I sort things out,' or, 'I've had no problem so I don't have to attend the Workshop.' All of us, beginning with the 36 Blessed Couples, all the way to the 400 Million Blessed Couples, are already bound together as a whole, by collective sin which is like a chain. No matter how we try to escape from this, we will not be able to.

Even if you yourself may not have a problem, you are linked with those who do have problems. Through the Holy Song Sessions this time, you will be cut off from these bonds. The Absolute Good Spirits and the angels will come to cut off all such ties and separate you from this bondage. During the Holy Song Sessions, the 300 billion Absolute Good Spirits will perform works to sort out everything, and through the Holy Wine Ceremony tomorrow, wipe away even all traces of sin.

Everyone, please make sure that other members can also come here. Even if their were members who went to other places, or stopped coming to church due to lonely feelings, or have committed a sin that made them stop coming to church, please find each and every one of these members and make it possible for them to participate in this Special Workshop. Those brothers and sisters, who received the Blessing and then left for other places, became that way due to their spiritual backgrounds. I ask that you understand this, and work actively with love.

After the Holy Wine Ceremony, you must all live in earnest, to become absolutely good people. When you face painful and difficult problems, I ask that you can come here, and become precious members who can sort things out through the Holy Song Sessions and the word of God.

I wish to ask all of you, that you can become precious members who will appreciate this Blessing, and from now on offer utmost devotion in your lives, in mind and body, to be able to create a peaceful world. I close with the hope that you will all become valuable members who can receive the love of God and True Parents as abundantly as possible. Gamsahamnida
