Fourth Asia Top Gun
Graduation True Mother's Message
April 14, Cheon Jeong Gung
Sit down. Did you enjoy the hamburger? It’s the best isn’t
it?
Your answer was a bit slow. You are young, so you can
study. In order to become one world, one culture, and one human family, the
principle is that you should live using True Parents' language. So, should you
study Korean; or should you be idle? When I see you, I think of the time when I
was young. At a very young age, I made up my mind and said, “I will take
responsibility for the completion of the providence.” At that time, I was
alone, but you... you have many siblings. Isn’t that so? Therefore, you must
help each other and gain strength.
During this time, you have heard and studied lectures and
True Parents' life courses, but God, who created all things in the universe,
our Creator, the Heavenly Parent, had a dream. That dream was for God to become
the True Parent of humankind through the people who could become the first
human ancestors. Due to God giving human beings responsibility according to the
principle of creation, Adam and Eve, who could have become humankind’s ancestors,
should have accomplished that responsibility. However, in the growth stage,
they fell to Satan's temptation and developed greed. They wanted to become like
God before the time was right. That was the Fall. God cannot just abandon
fallen humankind and create people that could become new ancestors of
humankind. God wished to become the parent through humankind in accordance with
the principle of creation. That is why God had no choice but to begin the
providence of restoration through indemnity. How sorrowful, lonely, and sad
must that course have been?
It took four-thousand years until God’s only son, the
second attempt to realize God's dream, could be sent. It wasn't four hundred
years or forty—but four thousand years. In order to create that foundation, Heaven
raised a huge Cain-type nation. That was, two thousand years ago, when God’s
only son, Jesus Christ, was to come. Israel was at the level to go forward. It
was not an independent nation. There was a great empire called the Roman
Empire. At that time there was no one who recognized Jesus Christ, God’s only
son. Mary who bore Jesus, was unaware of Heaven's providence. She did not know
why God’s only son had come. The figures around Jesus— Zachariah's family,
figures in Judaism, the Israelites—knew God even less. That is why they made
decisions using human thought. The surrounding people, who should have cooperated,
did not cooperate; in that situation, the environment developed into one in
which Jesus could no longer proceed with the providence alone. Jesus had no
choice but to go the way of the cross. As he died, he said he would return—he
would return and hold the marriage supper of the Lamb. The central figures
should have been aware of this then. If God’s only son had been born, God’s
only daughter had to be found. Heaven would have prepared that, too. However,
those that should have taken responsibility could not take responsibility. Due
to that, what happened to the people and nation of Israel for the next two
thousand years? They were pitiful Israelites that had no nation. For two
thousand years, they lived as a nationless people and endured persecution. God’s
only son, whom Heaven had waited and waited for, for four thousand years died
on the cross.
Afterward, for 2,000 years, those in the Christian cultural
sphere had to prepare for God’s only daughter. Before Jesus said that he would
return to hold the marriage supper of the Lamb, the spot for God’s only son is
already here. Christianity must become the foundation to prepare for God’s only
daughter, but today’s Christianity does not realize this. Catholics especially
attend Mary as the Holy Mother. Poor Jesus, who died on the cross, has also
been hanging from the cross until now as Christians cry out for salvation. You
know the principle. What is the providence of salvation? What is the goal of
the providence of salvation? An individual alone cannot fulfill it. Don’t you
agree? That dream, which Heaven has longed for, is the parent, the family.
Therefore, until now, the people who believed in Christianity could not go to
heaven. Heaven is the place the True Family enters. It is a place those who
have not received the blessing through True Parents True Parents! Do you know
how precious the True Parents are? New life, new lineage through True Parents!
That means, going out in the position of the blessing. Do you understand?
Blessed families are precious. However, that family must fulfill their
responsibility. Responsibility! If you cannot do that, you cannot come close to
the True Parents.
A baby lives in its mother's womb for ten months. Once a
child is out in the world, there is no guarantee the child will live to a
hundred but life on earth is important. This is because you have to learn the
providence, meet True Parents, receive True Parents' teachings and become true
children. If you do not do that, you have no connection to heaven. The ones who
gave this precious gift to humankind are the True Parents! You cannot be the
only ones to know these True Parents. All humankind, the entire world, must
know them. You have to give others the responsibility and the opportunity.
Looking back, those in the Christian cultural sphere, who were unable to not fulfill their responsibilities, were able to begin after three hundred years. Rome acknowledged Christianity, which went from the Italian Peninsula across Europe to reach the island of Britain. Then through the oceanic providence of the Atlantic Civilization, key nations of the Atlantic Civilization such as Britain or Spain conquered countries around the world. They set off with the Christian culture. Yet they did not know Jesus' true nature. At first, they shared Christianity but because they did not know God and were selfish and individualistic, they later took away those cultures; in frank terms, they stole. Thus, if you visit England, go to the British Museum and you will see collections of artifacts from nations they had colonized on display.
Nevertheless, I am speaking of the age of Atlantic
civilization. Today, all the nations in Asia, now, must unite with Korea, the
land that gave birth to True Parents. One hundred years ago, the Indian Poet
Tagore said this... At that time, Korea was a Japanese colony. Looking towards Korea,
he said “Korea! ...that lamp is waiting to be lighted once again for the
illumination of the East,” which means through the True Parents, the light is
the truth. Through True Parents, through True Parents' words, that truth will
spread and the nations that accept that will become equal in the same age! They
will be united. We cannot just stay in Asia. We must go out to the world.
Therefore, centered on the ocean, the Pacific Ocean True Parents' ideology will
spread. Living for the sake of others. A life of giving. They will know the
True Parents, who give and give, forget they have given, and give again. This
is True Parents’ and Heavenly Parent’s wish and dream.
Even those who live in the fallen world, because of their
conscience, wish to live a good life. That is why we now have the four great
religions. Religions teach us how to live good and kind lives. Yet in the end, “What
must I do?” They do not know that final purpose. Only those in the Family
Federation, who know True Parents, know this. When we go out into the world
with this truth, among all the people of the world, we will find righteous
people, prepared people. When they hear this truth, how grateful will they be?
Don’t you think that when through you, other people, encounter True Parents and
their ideology they will feel that meeting True Parents is the same as meeting
the Creator, Heavenly Parent? Will they cry tears of gratitude, or not? Won’t
they be grateful? That makes you all saviors! Saviors! I told blessed families
to fulfill the role of Heavenly Tribal Messiahs. You cannot stop at your tribe;
you must think of all of the world’s 7.4 billion people. Don't young people
walk faster than older people? Your energy, your stamina, your heart of filial
piety toward Heaven forges a path that will save the 7.4 billion people of the
world. If that doesn’t bring light to the world, what would? Isn't that so?
Through you, the world’s people will see the light. That means they will know
True Parents. We must do this. Don’t you agree? Yes. Thank you.
