On Sunday, October 26, True Mother addressed Unificationists around the world for her second biannual global Sunday Service. She spoke about recommitting ourselves to new tribal messiahship and fulfilling True Father’s last desire for us, for the sake of the world. Following is a transcription of her words. The video of the service will be posted later this week.
October is a beautiful time of harvest. All the Unificationist families around the world, what have you harvested today? For 6000 years, the word blessing is the word that humanity has been waiting for and it is the word that Heavenly Parent’s has been longing for. In this fallen world, before this word “blessing,” could come about, there were great efforts invested by our Heavenly Parent and much sacrifice on the part of our True Parents in indemnifying the 6000 years of providence. Upon that kind of foundation the word blessing could come about. We should be thankful for this word. To the Unificationist families today, now that we have gone beyond the second anniversary of True Father’s Seonghwa and are now in the third year, what kind of determination should we have in our hearts? Before he ascended to the spiritual world, True Father’s last words to us were to please fulfill our mission as new tribal messiahs. And with how much seriousness have you been working towards fulfilling this goal?
Today, there are families in two nations (Phillipines and Thailand) that have already fulfilled their tribal messiahship by giving the Marriage Blessing to 430 families. Today, having come together on this occasion, let us all congratulate and encourage them. May today become a day of determination for every single one of us to achieve the same objective.
I spoke about the blessing. Fallen humanity has been reborn and received new lives thanks to the Marriage Blessing given by True Parents. I told you that to this fallen humanity, the word blessing is something that you can be reborn through.
If the fallen world is likened to a polluted and stale world, families who have received the Marriage Blessing are like fresh, clear water to that stale world. How do you regard this idea? But though you are in this clearer state, you still have responsibilities. Please consider this: even if the water is pure, if it remains stagnant the quality deteriorates and it begins to rot. Even though that water is pure, it has to move. It must flow toward the ocean. Livings beings that are dying will revive wherever this true water of life flows.
That is why it is necessary for tribal messiahs to act upon their responsibilities. This is our mission as the new tribal messiahs. The tribal messiah movement will become a huge wave and will spread beyond Thailand and the Philippines; it will pass through countries in Asia and Europe, North and South America, Africa, Oceania and the Middle East. It is swelling and moving toward the ocean. Wherever this wave passes, countless people will be reborn.
We cannot rely on anything in the world today. The only thing that we can do is to let everyone know about True Parents through us. This is how, through our families, tribes, societies and nations, people will unite with True Parents and ride this great wave and move through all the continents and the oceans. Together we can create that one world under God; the world longed for by our Heavenly Parent and True Parents.
Until that day comes, the day for which humanity has longed, it is my hope that all Unificationists become one in heart and in body, harmonized in thought and one with True Parents through absolute faith, absolute love and absolute obedience. Can you stand still knowing that our brothers and sisters are still out there, miserable and struggling like orphans? You must stand up. Will you do that?
Today, on this occasion, we must unite. We must confidently testify to the world that True Parents have come. You must help people become aware of True Parents’ achievements and of how great they are. Do not be afraid. Whatever you do In the name of True Parents the entire physical and spiritual realm will be with you. So what are you afraid of? Confidently cry out and show the world that you are true Blessed Families—children of True Parents. Remember that this is the only way you can stand in the ranks of an ancestor who created a family longed for by God that has guided the seven billion people in becoming citizens of Cheon Il Guk, the Kingdom of God. This is the status we so longed for. I hope you all become victorious, devoted and loyal sons and daughters./
