September is the harvest month… At this providential harvest time, our responsibility is to witness -- to find the many prepared and ripened grains. Hence, you should boldly let people know about True Parents. Have you seen the recent popular movie, Myeongryang (English title "The Admiral: Roaring Currents")?
There is no owner in this world. The people's hearts felt empty as a result. The leaders then were not able to truly lead the people and help them. That is why when Admiral Yi Sun-shin stood on the frontline in that difficult environment, with the heart to serve the people, the people united. This changed Korea's fate. What do you think would have happened if Yi Sun-shin had not been there at that time?
Even though this age has many great people, people are still waiting for a true owner. You have received True Parents' blessing. Do not be afraid! If you become one with True Parents, you can overcome and resolve all problems. Should a person, who knows about this, just remain dormant? You should take the lead to witness and educate people! Father always spoke of this. There is no perfection in ignorance. Hence, you should let people know. Now is a time when you should boldly advance. Do not fear the better-established religious groups. Do you understand?
I called members of the Youth Federation and CARP here today. How many of you have come? You have come at the right time. Remember many prepared lives are waiting for your voice and touch. Challenge yourselves and meet them! It is not incorrect to say that the history of our Unification Church started from CARP. The standard of our Unification Church is high. When we convey the word, you are people that can digest anything. Hence, move forward with confidence! My hopes for you are high.
In December, I plan to go to Las Vegas to educate young people that can grow into leaders on the frontline through a forty-day witnessing course. In order to do so, it is important that you are able to communicate. Since English can be seen as a common language used around the world, I am about to give you the opportunity to speak without fear; to enable you to speak to a certain extent after the forty days.
Korea is the fatherland of our faith, True Parents' fatherland. What does that imply? We must be able to embrace many brothers and sisters. The countries that stood at the frontline of missionary work… Korea was a bit weak. Those countries included Japan, America and Europe, Germany in particular. They have not been able to raise successors. Time does not wait for us. It actually feels a bit late. Are you then going to give up because of that? We must make it possible! Most leaders are in their sixties and seventies, but did they raise successors?
Even though each of the providential organizations carries different responsibilities, I hope that they become one with the headquarters and work together in a direction that brings about greater results. Since results are important, do not assert what is yours alone, but join hands and make greater results. The message I have given you this time is about this: Forgive, love and unite! This is the true love "flu" of this age given to you by True Parents. I hope this spreads to the nation and moves on to all of Asia and the entire world and that you yield results from such a foundation….. When one catches the flu, one must try hard to recover from it. Isn't that right? The true love flu! I hope that providential organizations and groups often collaborate and communicate with one another and bring about greater success.
A few days ago, the Pope paid a visit to Korea and it became quite an issue. However, what came from his visit? He has left. The work that we do, however, is to save people. What else is greater than this, that we should be grateful for? Instead, you should be afraid of sleeping. Father tried not to sleep. You said you would become devoted children and patriots. If that's the case, shouldn't you take after True Parents? Please become sons and daughters that resemble True Parents and realize their hopes. This is the way to give blessings to our descendants in the future.
These days, I have been thinking a lot about indemnity. What can be done to pass down a world without indemnity to our descendants in the future? Just as I did, you should be able to say, "Follow in my footsteps!" Only by doing so, can the Cheon Il Guk era… True Parents have opened the door to the kingdom of heaven on earth. However, this depends on how extensively you are able to build a good environment. This is harvest season. Please have greater determination and bring about results through that!
