Book Four - True Family
Chapter Ten - The True Family of Humankind Must Be Restored
Section 1. The Purpose of God's Providence of Salvation

The question is: what is it that God needs most? What is God called? He is the King and Owner of true love. If He is the King and Bridegroom of true love, it is an absolute principle that He needs a queen to become His partner. Who can be partners of true love for the absolute God? True human beings. It was Adam and Eve who were to attain oneness with God's love. You need money, knowledge and power, but if you lack a spouse, all these are in vain. Husbands need their wives and children, and wives need their husbands and children. The place where such objects of love live is called the family.

Families who attend God, the Subject of love, must form the base for the beginning of God's Kingdom on earth centered on His true love. The core family is comprised of a man and a woman who are united as the object partners of God's love, who fulfill the desire of the conscience, who have sons and daughters within God's love, and who live happily as a family. Just as human beings wish for the appearance of a beloved partner a million times or infinitely more valuable than themselves, God also wishes for His beloved partners to become beings of infinite value. Such people are true men and women. None of you have realized the fact that such a man and woman were none other than Adam and Eve, who were supposed to reach perfection without falling. (270.238.1995.67)

Due to the Fall, God lost the true mother and children of Adam's family. There have been no true sons and daughters for God. There has been no family of God who could inherit the lineage of His love. Our minds and bodies came into conflict, having inherited false love, false life and false lineage through the fallen parents. Adam and Eve became enemies. Bloody wars broke out among Adam's sons and daughters.

Therefore, God's providence of salvation must be completed. The providence of salvation through which God restores everything is the providence of restoration and it is fulfilled in this manner: sons and daughters with unified minds and bodies should attain absolute oneness as couples centering on God's love; they should then build true families where they can live attending God eternally; and then, inherit His lineage by connecting with Christianity, the religion positioned as the Bride. Together, they will reorganize through God's true love a unified family, tribe, people, nation and world. (270-243, 1995.6.7)

What is God's purpose in establishing religions? You should clearly know that it has to be His will to form a beloved family, tribe, people and nation centered on His most beloved sons and daughters, in whom His bone and flesh can become one. Men you should know what kind of person the Messiah is. He is the one who will finally come to earth with God's eternal true love as the root and perfect the ideal desired by all religions. Thus, the purpose of God's providence of salvation has been for him to become the True Parent, regaining the lost true love, true life and true lineage by establishing ideal families all over the earth.
