True
Mother’s Message at the Japanese WFWP Meeting, Cheon Jeong Gung
God created all things
in heaven and on earth, and then created Adam and Eve. He had a big dream. Yet,
did that dream come true? Because of Adam and Eve’s mistake, God’s providential
history was actually a miserable course filled with indescribable hardships and
suffering. Yet, because he could not leave fallen humanity as it was, God began
creating the right environment to save humanity.
Heaven chose the people of
Israel and for a long time, four thousand years, his only concern was how to
bring his children, who had fallen into Satan’s realm, back into his embrace.
He continuously established a central figure and continued the providence of
restoration.
Abraham was the son of
an idol maker. Abraham was a person Heaven could not choose; yet when Heaven
chose him and called him to leave Ur of the Chaldees with absolute obedience
and faith, he left his native city with an absolute and obedient heart. Abraham
was then eligible to be in the position of an ancestor Heaven could establish.
Through Isaac and down to Jacob, Heaven worked to find a family he could
embrace in the fallen world and thereby establish a nation; this was Jacob’s
course.
Thanks to the cooperation
of Jacob’s mother, Jacob was able to obtain the first son’s right of
inheritance. Then what happened? There was a period of indemnity, right? After
twenty-one years, didn’t Jacob take his family and bring Esau to surrender?
Thanks to that, the foundation upon which Israel could be a nation was
established. This is an amazing revolution.
Through WFWP you were
sent out and you have been active for twenty-one years. Should I praise you for
your hard work, saying that the results of your work can accelerate the
realization of Cheon Il Guk? Your effort, however, is still weak from Heaven’s
perspective.
There are still seven
billion people waiting for us. I cannot help embracing them because I am a True
Parent. However, can True Parents do it alone? Blessed families that are
following True Parents must take the lead. We must therefore be able to embrace
all seven billion people and bring them into our Heavenly Parents’ bosom.
One big world… This
should not remain imaginary. We are living in a time when we can truly work
toward realizing it. We have True Parents with us. I just mentioned the story
of Abraham. Abraham’s faith became the basis on which Heaven could send his
only son through the nation of Israel. How great a blessing is this to fallen
humanity! Yet, did the people in those days receive the son well? Heaven sent
his only son to the people of Israel after a long wait and after raising them
for four thousand years. Yet, the people of Israel and Judaism ended up sending
God’s son to the cross.
Jesus, however, said
that he would come again. The only-begotten son that God could love since the
Fall appeared for the first time. What do you think our Heavenly Parents’ heart
would have been like when he had to send his only son to Heaven?
Heaven asked us to
educate ignorant human beings and embrace them; he asked us to do so through
his son, through one in his lineage, through the Messiah. Imagine what God’s
heart would have been like then. Yet,
the providence had to continue.
God’s only begotten
son cannot do it alone. God’s only daughter is needed. Do you know that the
six-thousand-year providence was also about finding and raising God’s only
daughter? God did this even during Jesus’ time. However, it did not bear fruit.
History remembers God’s only son and not God’s only daughter.
Isn’t the providence
of Christianity one that is in search of the bride? The providence was also
about looking for God’s only daughter. You know about Father, but not about
Mother.
Satan became the king
of the fallen world. In order to restore fallen humanity, Heaven raised figures
that overcome all conditions that gave rise to Satan’s accusations. Since Satan
had become the king, Heaven had to find his only daughter through a good
dynasty. Does that make sense?
When a central figure
that Heaven chose and worked through failed to fulfill the given
responsibility, Heaven did not work again through the same person. We know all
this through the Divine Principle. Since the people of Israel failed, they
could no longer wait for God’s only daughter.
If you study more in
the future, you will come to understand the background through which Heaven
chose Korea a long time ago as the nation where the Messiah would return.
Before the Kojoseon era, the Han Dynasty existed; it was a good dynasty.
Through the succession of this line, the providence was steadily connected.This
is True Mother’s history.
My maternal
grandmother was Jo Won-mo. Starting from my grandmother to Hong Sun-ae
(Daemonim) and me, we are the only daughters in three generations. Father once
said that for a woman to become the mother of the universe, she had to come
from three-generations of in which she was the only daughter in the family.
This shows us how Heaven prepared the environment for this one time. Think
about it.
Heaven created all
things before he created Adam and Eve. He first created an environment for
them. This also applies to the providence. I am saying that Heaven’s work is
amazing.
In other words, the
mother of the universe did not suddenly appear after the returning Messiah
came. This result comes from establishing indemnity conditions that freed her
from Satan’s conditions in the long providential course.
That is why I was
born; it was around the time of my birth that Christianity entered Korea.
Before that, Korea was a Buddhist and Confucian nation. It hasn’t been long
since Christianity entered Korea. Christianity first entered through northern
Korea. A lot of spiritual phenomenon occurred centered on Pyeongyang then. When
many Christians were waiting for the returning Messiah to come on the clouds,
there were spiritual groups waiting for the Messiah to come in the flesh. Why?
That was because they were aware of God’s providence. Only by coming in the
flesh, can the Messiah become the True Parent. Only by doing so can the lineage
of fallen humanity be changed. Blessed families cannot be formed if the Messiah
does not become the True Parents. Soon after the liberation, an ideological
confrontation, with communists, arose.
Human history often
depicts groups collapsing by making many mistakes and then rising again and
developing again. History has been this way. There had been no owner. Until the
true owner comes, humanity had to go through repeated labor pains. Heaven
continued to raise us to stand on the good side in this manner through the work
of our original minds.
You have probably
heard of this already through Father’s teachings: A spiritual group under Kim
Song-do and Heo Ho-bin prepared to receive the Lord at his Second Coming.
Dae-mo nim and my grandmother Jo Won-mo were key people in the group. Members
of the group genuinely believed that Pyongyang would become the palace of Eden.
They did not care about the political situation of the country. They stayed
there because they believed that Pyongyang would become the palace of Eden.
That was around the time when Korea was about to be divided at the thirty-eighth
parallel and many people were fleeing.
It was then that
Father received a revelation from Heaven, instructing him to go to North Korea.
I was six years old when he came to North Korea. While Father was ministering
in North Korea, he was sent to prison by the communist government. That was
when Heo Ho-bin was also in prison. Father, who came to know that Heo Ho-bin
was in the same prison, asked her to deny everything and be
released. You heard
that the message was discovered in the process of being conveyed and that
Father suffered as a result. Heo Ho-bin’s mother was leading the group then.
I was six years old at
the time. She called me and gave me her blessings through a prayer.
What do you think she
said in her blessing prayer?
When I was born, Satan
tried to kill me, saying, “Because you were born, I will die and descend. Hence, I have to kill you.” Satan
already knew who I was. Because he knew it would not be good for him that I
live, he tried to kill me. Heaven showed that the time had come for me to be
born seventy years ago. Then, why did I end up coming to South Korea?
My uncle, then, was
studying pharmacology at Waseda University. However, after graduating, he
entered the South Korea Army instead of coming to his hometown. So, my
grandmother wanted to come to South Korea to see him. But because she could not come alone,
she came down with her daughter and granddaughter.
Others in the group
were all waiting in North Korea because they believed that North Korea would
become the palace of Eden. Two years after we came to South Korea, the Korean
War broke out. After the Korean War started, just before the Han River Bridge
was cut off, we were able to cross over the Han River thanks to my uncle’s
help. This was no human work. Heaven saved me because the True Parents had to
appear. Heaven did such amazing work.
That is why when I met
Father and the issue of marriage came up, I already understood the providence.
No matter how difficult and hard, I will resolve everything within my
generation. I am determined. In the end, if I fail to fulfill it, Father cannot
complete it either.
A mother is essential
for a child to be born. True Parents appeared on earth, but you should
understand how difficult it was for them to come. All seven billion people are
indebted to True Parents and our Heavenly Parent. The parental heart gives
repeatedly, forgets about it and gives again. True Parents practiced this.
Unification Church
members should know about True Mother. You could not have been born if it were
not for True Mother. Hence, you should feel thankful that I am still physically
living with you while you are working so hard.
I spoke about
indemnity. Indemnity should all be brought to an end in your lifetimes. Only
then can there be hope for our second generation’s future. Do not give up,
saying that it is tough. That is why I will give you Happy Health machines,
through which you can maintain good health. True Father left truly big gifts
for humanity; one of them is Happy Health.
You should be able to
boast about True Mother being alive wherever you go; Is it okay for children
not to understand their parents’ language? Father repeatedly said this; I also
said that I will not allow those that do not speak Korean to participate in
meetings. It is not merely Korean. It is your mother tongue, the language of
your parents’ nation. Do not think just because you have aged that you cannot
do it; please put in the effort.
If you are in your
sixties, I have already given you a blessing. I said that through your devotion
and efforts, your life shall be extended by sixty years. Let us fulfill
providential history. Think about living until a hundred and twenty. Do you
like that or not? Let’s resolve everything within our lifetimes. That’s what I
am saying.
We have to build the
kingdom of God on earth. I have to build this. Our tribe, our nation. Not our nation. One nation, one world.
We have received so
much love and so many blessings from our Heavenly Parent. We are greatly
indebted to him. You might feel disappointed about being second in the world,
but you are blessed people. You are happy people. You must not shirk your
responsibilities.
This world came about
because Adam and Eve shirked their responsibilities in the beginning.
They didn’t understand
that they had responsibilities—the responsibility to absolutely obey.
He has shown us
everything in this manner; what else is there to wish for?
Now you should fulfill
your responsibilities as mature children.
