True Parents' Birthday Pledge Service
Cheon Jeong Gung, February 21, 2018
We are living in a new age. You must properly know God. When you do so, you will be able to attend God in your family, your nation, and the world.
When God created heaven and earth, God created the world in his form and in his image. God created plus and minus in the mineral kingdom, stamen and pistil in the plant kingdom, male and female in the animal kingdom, and finally, God created a man and a woman that would become the first ancestors of humankind. The Bible refers to them as Adam and Eve. Unlike the world of all created things, God gave humans a growth-period during which they could fulfill their responsibilities.
God created the Heavens and the Earth. When we think of God we think of someone in a high place, a dignified being who would not even think to lower his head to look down as fallen humankind. That is how God has been expressed. Yet in the Bible, it says God is love. When we face all created things, the lovelier it is the more beautiful and ecstatic we feel. When we look at it we experience a heart of feeling united through joy.
When we look at the world of all things, and look at the human world, we must realize God, the Creator was not only the masculine subject, but that living things could be born because there was a Heavenly Father and a Heavenly Mother. You must know this clearly. Yet until now religious people have only looked at one side. The completion of religion, the completion of humankind cannot be realized through one side. If you do not welcome the mother of the universe, True Mother, the only daughter of God, no salvation can come for humankind. We must go the path of knowing God's essence clearly and becoming one with God. Then the problems arising from race, religion, etc., these problems will no longer be problems.
We must unite with the victorious True Parents who are the substantial embodiment of Heavenly Parent. When you are reborn through the True Parents, then you can appear in Heavenly Parent’s presence.
Each of you has your own responsibility. What you must first do is fulfill your responsibility as Heavenly Tribal Messiahs. You, who live during this amazing providential age, I am telling you cannot keep this as only your own.
All 7.5 billion people of the world must know of Heavenly Parent's existence and know what Heavenly Parents' dream is. Therefore, through believing in and attending and following the victorious True Parents, you stand as a true child who can stand in God's presence. At this time when you can receive heaven's blessings, should or should not all humankind go to the spirit world without knowing, hearing or living that kind of life?
Now what is there for you to fear? The path for religions, governments, and all aspects to unite is through welcoming the Mother of the universe, True Parents, the only daughter of God. That is the path wished by all living things that live on this earth.
For a long time, fallen humankind has been destroying this beautiful world. Therefore I, as the mother of the universe, as the True Parents, I cannot ignore the future of our descendants. It is my and your responsibility to make right each and every wrong. We have welcomed the new year 2018, the year of the golden dog, centered on the determinations you have made we must be victorious at an even higher level.
