The Words of Sun Myung Moon from 2011 |
Note: These notes are taken from a Peace TV video clip. They cannot be published as definitive texts and should never be used in the future as an "official" publication of True Father's words. However, they do provide a good idea of the "spirit" of the message. -- Rev. Katsumi Kambashi
All of you have this speech file, don't you? You should always have it with you. I am finished with it but you are not yet. You must live according to this, and that is your responsibility in the era after the coming of heaven.
This (which has 73 pages plus an added page as conclusion) contains all my accomplishments in my 73 years, and the world of unification could have been established within those years. But Christianity has opposed me and so the providence has been postponed. We must digest it."
"We (Father and Mother) have the same birthday with a difference of 23 years, and centering on our birthday (next year) when I am 93 years old and mother is 70 years old, a conclusion needs to be made."
(Opening his speech file) "Did you not bring this with you today? (Nobody has the file). You are students yet! How can you study without having the text!"
(Reading opening remarks) "'I am truly happy and grateful to see you at this Origin of the Principle assembly.' In going to heaven, you wouldn't have a problem if you participated in it. You must learn God as the Substantial Being. Your understanding of the Origin of the Principle means you are beyond the level in which God says in the Garden of Eden 'You will die when you eat the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.' From page 7 (when numbering of the page starts as page 1) my main speech begins. The contents are the diary of my official course."
'"What I am about to proclaim to you today is part of the course of True Parents' tour that is to proclaim the ultimate conclusion and fulfillment of all aspects of the providence of restoration during the lifetime of the True Parents.' You don't know what this means."
"The tradition, blood lineage, and resemblance. Without having father's sperm and mother's egg, children can't resemble them. Due to the fall, the sperm has been changed. Is receiving the Blessing is everything? You are the people that can't even go to the gate of the Garden of Eden, who love your children more than mine, love your parents more than mine."
"'The path taken by the True Parents shall serve as a tradition and historic example; thus, I am proclaiming that all of you should model your life course on this path, become families that pledge to inherit and fulfill the will of God that True Parents have already accomplished, and be true to this pledge.'
This (speech) is a proclamation, not a promise. So this is the assembly of the proclamation and pledge. Jesus couldn't be recognized as the Messiah on even a familial and tribal level and that's why he couldn't help but die. Have you proclaimed to your tribe that you are the Tribal Messiah? I myself have been practicing celibacy but you have done all kinds of things! You disgusting people!"
"'On April 18 we celebrated our 52nd year of marriage. On that occasion, I brought to a close the era before the coming of heaven, which was marked by sin and indemnity [atonement], and proclaimed the era after the coming of heaven through which a new heaven and new earth will be realized by returning to true love.' This is True Parents' proclamation, not yours! Read this!"
"'Korea will now become God's homeland and hometown. Declaring that Korea is God's homeland,' Have you proclaimed this yourself? Have you proclaimed that you are perfected sons and daughters? How can you do it while continuing the same life! I have been pioneering the providence of indemnity, and you, following me, have stolen what I accomplished."
"'Furthermore, with the Seonghwa Ceremony for the former United States Secretary of State General Alexander Haig, I proclaimed that the Seonghwa ceremony for the victory of the first, second, and third Israels, which completed the ceremonies for rebirth, resurrection and Seunghwa during my lifetime, was transferred to Korea.'
I changed the Seunghwa ceremony to the Seonghwa ceremony. The Seunghwa ceremony should be done within three days after one died, which decides if they go to heaven or hell. The Seonghwa ceremony (starts) when the heavenly sperm is implanted in the ovum. You know that you couldn't find the journey of heavenly sperm but you have lived as you wanted."
"'The True Parents have achieved ultimate unity' Do you know what it means? Do you know it or not!"
"The ages to get married are 8 years, from 17 to 24. Man's coming-of-age ceremony is at 15, which is 7 plus 8, and they must become owners in their own life). The Oriental girl starts their period at 14 and the western girl starts at 13."
"The restoration through indemnity can be accomplished when the things have substantially reversed. I have been working accordingly but you just insist 'I have been a Unification Church member for 30 years, or 50 years.' I said tradition, blood lineage, and resemblance, and without realizing any resemblance, how can you become God's children?
Sun Jo Hwang! ('Yes') Which comes first, tradition or blood lineage? ('It is tradition') Did you know it? Forgetting tradition, you insist the changing of the blood lineage but that is only at the time of Blessing."
