01The result of the Fall
God's hope crumbled because of the human fall, and human beings' hope also dissipated. Humans are the object of God's hope, the center representing the universe, an individual of universal ideology.
Each human was to be an ideal individual, an offering representing the whole. As such, they had to be able to move Heaven and Earth. Because they did not become so, hope remains unfulfilled, and God's hope remains unattained.
When we think of this point, knowing that the garden of creation was built for human beings and that the ideology of creation was for God to enjoy happiness with human beings, we must reflect upon ourselves again.
02We must again realize that we are the ones who decide the fate of the Garden of Creation and its ideology. We should take responsibility for this, fight for it, and dissolve God's historical sorrow.
There is no greater sadness, no worse mortification, no greater vexation than that caused by the fall. The moment this kind of mental shock explodes in us is the moment we can find a new ideology and hope.
Therefore, we must not forget that Heaven has fought until now to impart new shocks to the minds of fallen people. Numerous prophets and martyrs, who took on the mission of Heaven in Heaven's place, also fought and died to awaken sleeping humankind from the realm of death.
They tried to imply that a world of a new ideology and the garden of new hope exist, to shock the people into denying the environment in which they lived.
We must know that no group or people became shocked by the words of the prophets warning people in each age, in place of Heaven, as they lived through their course of history, nor did any nation.
We must know that no one depended on those words and overcame their age, centering on those words. We should mourn this historical sin, yet we do not even recognize it.
We know that Jacob lived through 21 years of an unexpected wilderness course. Jacob possessed a heartistic standard with which he could overcome all the collisions in 21 years.
Jacob's steadfast shimjeong toward Heaven, based on the shock of Heaven that collided with his mind, was able to dominate his life. Thus, he was able to win over all the hardships in his environment and triumphantly go through restoration.
Jacob stepped forward, not minding all the suffering and hardship that visited him, holding on to the resolution he had made on the day he received the shock of Heaven. He was a man of faith who stopped the history of prolongation affected by the mistake of Abraham, the ancestor of faith. Jacob subjugated Satan.
The luxurious, royal lifestyle of Pharaoh's castle could not dominate the mind of Moses, who was bearing national responsibility. Even though Moses led a poor shepherd's life in the Midian wilderness for forty years, the royal environment could not dominate the internal shock that penetrated Moses' shimjeong.
Because Moses possessed a heartistic shock burning inside him, wanting to go over the nation, over humankind, over the world to make a relationship with Heaven, he was able to go over the forty years in the Midian wilderness with ease.
To what did our ancestors look forward to?
They were longing for a new nation, a place where God could reside. We know that they fought with their lives to establish that place.
In the forty years when Moses led the 600,000 people and wandered in the wilderness, the surrounding environment was very difficult. He was able to forget all the difficult conditions of the environment and deliver 600,000 people to Canaan.
This is because his shimjeong, pierced with longing to enter the land of Canaan as he had promised God, and his shimjeong of hope toward the land of Canaan were greater than the shimjeong of the opposition of the 600,000 people.
03The Purpose of Heaven and the Ancestors' Labor
Jesus Christ, who came as the culmination of 4,000 years of Heaven's hope, came to introduce to humankind the ideology of the ideal Kingdom of Heaven and to fulfill that ideology.
He was not caught up with words that indulged the customs of the age. He was not satisfied with the lifestyles of that society. He was not captivated by the customs of the ritualistic Jewish religion, entrenched in formality and rules.
Jesus appeared with the internal standard of new loyalty, denying every aspect of history. He had new words centering on that standard.
When he appeared, taking novel action together with those new words, the chosen historical individuals, the chosen historical group, and the nation raised a banner of revolt against him. We must realize that this was what obstructed the course of Christ's establishing his ideology.
We can know through history that God, the Creator, exists and wants to raise human beings to a standard of the greatest ideology by connecting them to a better ideology, tomorrow more than today, next year more than tomorrow, this century more than next year, and in the next century more than now.
Therefore, each person has to receive a new shock from the ideology that Jesus introduced 2,000 years ago. Each person living in this antiquated system of reality has to ignite the explosion of a new mind. If a movement does not appear that can do this, this age will not be able to escape the depths of historical sadness.
Living in the historic last days, we have learned all that the Bible can teach us.
Numerous scholars have researched the Bible with their utmost effort for 2,000 years, but their research ended with themselves. They thought of their movements as complete and that they had presented human beings with an ideal ideology, but it was not what human beings sincerely desired.
Through merely observing reality, we can see that it was not a movement that could pioneer the Garden of shimjeong.
We must become people who can break down this wall and plow our way through the debris.
Since every person is in despair today, what is the biggest problem?
If there is a Creator who wants to build the Kingdom of Heaven, how can someone introduce the ideology of the Kingdom of Heaven to human beings?
That is the problem. Let us then say that there is a person who feels that there needs to be a new ideology.
He feels that the ideologies presented up to now are and have been insufficient. If he feels this but does not possess a yearning heart for that new ideology, he is a historical criminal.
If you long for that ideology and desire for all humankind to be happy, you must go over all hills of sorrow. You must possess a determination in your mind to push aside all problems of reality and fight to surmount them. Whether you possess that determination is the issue.
04The Problem of Introducing a New Ideology
What I want to ask you today is: where is the ideology that can re-create people, the ideology that can break down historical adherence to old habits that humankind has not been able to escape, the ideology that can burn like a shock in the human heart?
If there is a God, can He introduce this ideology to us without any condition? Have you ever thought about this? If you have not, you are a shameful sinner in the presence of your ancestors, who longed and fought for the ideal garden, the ideal world.
Jesus was pierced with his shimjeong toward Heaven. He felt deeply about the new ideal world of creation, the world of hope humankind was to find. He acted according to what he felt and said to us, “Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.”
In what kind of surroundings did Jesus act out the heavenly shock he felt?
All people were supposed to agree with each other and welcome Jesus wherever he went, but no one welcomed him.
This was true not only at that time but even now; numerous people who live and who have lived in history, innumerable spirit individuals in the spiritual world, also have not deeply understood the words that Jesus spoke and Jesus' responsibility. None has welcomed Jesus.
Yet, Jesus, coming with the new ideology, felt deeply that to fulfill that ideal, he had to conquer all conditions of opposition that struck him.
The more intensely the shock of knowing the idea came to him, the more Jesus solidified his firm determination to withstand all conditions of evil in his surroundings. Therefore, Jesus could overcome any kind of confrontation.
Today, our minds long for something. Our bodies suffer to find that something. We groan in fear and anxiety. Living thus, we must yearn for the day when we can be free of all these conditions of fear and apprehension.
We are not the only ones who face this. Jesus also lived in this kind of environment 2,000 years ago. You should reflect upon this fact and think about how Jesus lived through that.
Jesus knew that God had created all things. He knew that the Kingdom of Heaven was to be fulfilled with true owners having dominion over all created things. He knew that the ideal Kingdom of Heaven which God desired had turned into hell on earth through the fall.
He knew that this world had turned into a world of unspeakable fear and uneasiness, a world of conflict. Thus, Jesus started a course of public life to take responsibility for and bring salvation to this hell on earth, forsaking his kingdom.
Advancing toward the ideal Kingdom of Heaven, Jesus faced indescribable loneliness, adversity, and sadness. Nevertheless, Jesus knew he had to go this way.
Therefore, he felt that he had to go this way until the ideal garden was fulfilled, until he met God in that garden, representing humankind. You must feel this way as well. We are in the same situation. We also must advance toward that ideal garden.
If you have received this new shock, you should say in your mind, “Father, I want to go this way! I want to go toward that ideal Kingdom of Heaven, our hope!” You should be filled with that kind of shimjeong.
05The road that goes to the ideal Kingdom of Heaven of Hope is not a level road. It is a road of sorrow. The road to the Kingdom of Heaven does not start from the Kingdom of Heaven.
It starts from the world of sin and hell. If we surmount that hell and come out on the other side, we will be connected to the Kingdom of Heaven.
We must go. We are destined to go toward the ideal Kingdom of Heaven of hope.
We should think of Jesus, who had to go this way. What kind of road did he travel? He did not travel a flat, level road.
Jesus did not go the way of being welcomed by society. Jesus was the redeemer of all people and the master of the cosmos, but he never exercised the role of master, and he hesitated to boast of himself and proclaim that the masses should follow him.
06Jesus Walked the Road of Hardship
Jesus was supposed to walk the road of providence in front. Yet, he could not go in front. Instead, he stood behind everyone and said to each, “You go the easy way. I will walk the most difficult path.”
He shouldered the difficulties of the nation and the world alone. He carried the cross of hardship, which humankind repels, by himself and lived for the sake of humankind. Jesus had to walk the road, even though it was one of historical sadness, entangled with evil conditions.
Thus, with thirty years of preparation and three years of public life, he walked that road with intense, internal determination. The more intense that conviction became, the more he became a friend to sorrowful humankind.
Moreover, he was mortified over the fact that human beings were suffering a life of fear and that Satan ruled humankind. In the humblest place in history, in the humblest place of the age, he fought with Satan.
He walked the road with a mind to say, “If humankind is in sorrow, I will take responsibility for its sadness. If humankind is challenged, I will take responsibility for that difficulty. If humankind lives in death, I will take responsibility for death.”
His footsteps were those of an individual, but his mission was a historical mission, a mission of the age, a mission for the future.
If there is a shimjeong God felt after the creation, if there is a shimjeong of humankind and of all things, then Jesus had the responsibility to know all that and liberate them.
Where did his path lead?
His path did not lead to a luxurious palace, nor did it lead in glory to the house of some high official or authority. Jesus knew that he was placed in a position to do God's will at a time when all the conditions had not been fulfilled for the age. He went the opposite way.
Jesus knew that the path of Israel, which Heaven had trusted for 4,000 years, the path of hope for connecting to Heaven, was blocked. Therefore, he attempted to go forward to break open that path of hope. The people did not believe it, however. Hence, Jesus had to go to the lowest echelon of the Israelites.
Jesus was to go toward the Kingdom of Heaven, a hope. He was to go over the individual level, over the family level, his nation, over his race, and lead the world to Heaven, the ideal world.
He stood at the forefront of his race, but the race drove him away. Religion chased him out. His family drove him away. His disciples rejected him, and even a robber rejected him. How sorrowful do you think Jesus' heart would have been at that time?
Jesus was supposed to march forward with the ideology of God. He was to introduce the Garden of Happiness to humankind, yet he had to go the opposite way. What do you think Jesus' appearance and his shimjeong would have been like?
If Jesus could not go to the destination the right way, he still had to go, even if he had to go backward. Since 4,000 years had passed, he had to go, even if he had to go back through the 4,000-year history.
Because this was the mission and responsibility of Jesus, he repeatedly prayed to God. He prayed, “Even if there are obstacles that block the Father's will, I will still go the way, even if I have to walk the road of several thousand years. I will march toward that garden of hope. Father, please do not despair. I am here.”
The race that God established, the religion that God established, the family that God established, and the party of John the Baptist that God had established obstructed Jesus' way and betrayed him. How could God even face this situation? His will and dignity were completely compromised.
When all the conditions that had been set up over 4,000 years for the attendance of the Messiah collapsed in a brief moment, Jesus comforted God, instead of moaning over his situation. Since God was sad, Jesus must have been sad also, but he had to deny his situation and comfort God.
Jesus was treated as an enemy by his people. He was driven out as a heretic by the religious. His family criticized him as a traitor, and even criminals ridiculed him.
Later, nailed to the cross at Golgotha, he blessed and prayed for his enemies, those who had killed him: “Father, please forgive them.”
Jesus stepped forward, pledging to go toward God's ideal garden, even if his path did not end in glory, happiness, and joy, but in sadness, agony, and mortification. He had to go toward that garden of ideology, which is the goal of God.
The fact that Jesus traveled toward that ideal garden means that he went to the place of humankind, the place of history, and the place of all things. Therefore, we who are following him are fated to go that way, too. If we cannot go there while we are alive, we must go even after death. That is our fate.
07Christianity Is a Religion of the Cross
Jesus carried with him the suffering of humankind. He started from the lowest point of humanity and ended at the top of Golgotha. There he sacrificed his whole self.
Where was God's son, the heir apparent, the Prince of Heaven?
Where was the Messiah of humankind, the Savior? At that place, Jesus could not assert one iota's worth of his value. It was a tragic and pitiable place. Yet, Jesus was able to go over that hill of death, look to Heaven, and advance toward Heaven's ideal garden. His ideology was more powerful than death.
His ideology was more powerful than any force in history. Thus, he was able to push aside the realm of death and resurrect. He brought the people who opposed him to repentance and, hence, Christianity today has a basis of victory.
We, the followers of Jesus, must go the way he went, whether we live or die. The problem is whether you want to go this way.
You must have a feeling more powerful than the power of death, saying, “I will go toward that ideology, regardless of what comes my way. I will go that way whether I eat, whether I get hit, am treated unfairly, or I am persecuted.”
Otherwise, you will not be able to go over the realm of death in the judgment appearing in the last days. You must feel, “I will go whether this happens or that happens. Father, I know You are there. I know that your ideal world lies this way. Even if no one else goes, I will certainly go.”
Going is not easy. The progenitors of human beings did not start with peace, happiness, and joy; they began with sadness, grief, adversity, fear, and anxiety.
Therefore, we who are living in the last days must also travel through that road of historical sadness to indemnify this. Unless the Messiah appears in this time and introduces a heavenly ideology, humankind will not be able to escape the realm of fear and death. Humankind will not have a way to salvation.
Moved by Heaven, Christianity shone out its tradition throughout the course of history. If Christianity today does not keep this kind of tradition, Heaven will punish it. We can conclude this.
Christianity is supposed to pioneer the fate of the world in place of Jesus, who lamented with worldwide sadness. Christianity should become a shepherd, a lamb.
It should remove the resentment of Heaven and Earth, filled with the shimjeong that Jesus had when he said in the moment of death, bleeding on top of Golgotha, “Please forgive them.” Christianity should be able to introduce a new ideology, new hope, and a new ideal garden. This kind of person must exist.
Peter, James, and John, in the position of the Israelites, did not realize that when Jesus died on top of Golgotha amid opposition and persecution, he would resurrect.
When they did, they marched toward Heaven, risking their lives as they pondered his death. You must realize that if there is a shepherd who can appear before Heaven, risking death with that kind of herd of sheep, they are the ones who can connect the world to a new age and a new heavenly ideology.
We must realize this today. Today, we must re-examine everything around us. We must examine our leaders. What kind of group were the Jewish religious leaders?
They were a group that devastated Heaven's new truth. We must re-analyze today what is controlling us, and what is controlling our country's spirit.
You must receive a shock that can make you burn with the new ideology that can destroy all foundations of sin in this age and can lead people to new hope. If you cannot receive such a shock in your church, then that church cannot escape the same judgment as the first Israel.
08Human Beings Must Meet God
We must go. We must go over the idea of faith that religious people hold. Furthermore, we must go over the cross of Jesus. Beyond the cross, we must go into Jesus' heart of resurrection. We must even go over God's heart and comfort Him. We must advance toward that kind of position.
How can we stop our footsteps from heading toward that longed-for place, the place where God resides, the place where Jesus dwells, the place of the true brotherhood of humankind?
Before you lies the road of ideology that we must go, regardless of what on earth holds us, stepping over every obstacle. We must even lead the people who have been those obstacles into following that road.
Have you ever thought about God's hard work in finding us? From the day of the fall, God always sought Adam. God never failed to follow Adam's descendants. He has been seeking you when you did not know He was doing so.
Have you ever sought God?
You must know that 6,000 years of sadness and millions of people's deaths obstructed His path. When we know the hard work of God in seeking us, we should have the same kind of heart as we, in turn, seek God.
Jesus did not come to find an ideology for himself. Jesus came as the center of all people, to introduce all people to the garden of happiness and hope. Thus, he worked hard for all people, he suffered hardships for all people, and he walked the road of sadness for all people. No one in heaven or on earth was unrelated to Jesus' sadness, yet he had no place to go.
Nevertheless, Jesus did not lament and grieve over that situation; he left behind a new hope. Subsequently, he fulfilled the standard of the Messiah and became the owner of pioneering a new garden of hope. We must understand this point.
We did not know about Jesus' situation before now, but now we can see that Jesus passed away bearing the sorrow and pain of heart. Since we now know this, we must go after Jesus, of whom human beings have let go.
We must meet him. As you are filled with longing for Jesus, you should seek to meet him. Jesus fought to meet God, who had suffered for 4,000 years. Likewise, holding God's hand, you must possess a mind filled with longing to meet the heavenly appearance that represents the 2,000 years after Jesus and the 6,000 years of history.
You can meet God and Jesus, who comforted you when you were sad, who suffered with you when others wronged you and mistreated you. There is a hidden story behind meeting them.
When Jesus was passing away, he told many people many things. He said, “I will prepare a place for you in Heaven.” He promised to meet them again. We still have a way to go and a day when we can meet Jesus. Therefore, the conviction to go is not enough. We must meet that person.
The day we meet is the consummation of human history and the day of the second coming, in Christian terms. Therefore, you should possess a heart that longs to see the day of the second coming and a heart to march on to that day.
09You should go, overcoming hardships, persecution, and wrongdoing, and break down the gate of hell in the realm of death.
The Kingdom of Heaven is a place where all conditions through which Satan can accuse us are vanquished, and everyone moves according to God's ideal. Since the Kingdom of Heaven is a place free of all agony, if you leave behind any condition of suffering on earth, you will suffer in Heaven, to the degree of your lack of fulfillment on earth.
We human beings are in a situation to connect only after walking all the roads. We can connect only after walking all the historical roads that Jesus has already passed. Who are we to meet?
10The Responsibility of the Bride
After Jesus passed away, God prepared for 2,000 years for the meeting to come. Jesus has been praying and preparing for 2,000 years from the spiritual world so that we may meet the bride of Heaven in the last days.
Jesus has the responsibility of a bridegroom, and people on earth have the responsibility of a bride. Jesus has been fulfilling that responsibility in the spiritual world. We know this through the Bible.
How can the brides on earth meet the bridegroom?
They must fulfill their responsibility. When Jesus appears on earth, he appears after having fulfilled his responsibility. Therefore, we should also fulfill our responsibility.
As a reward for fulfilling your responsibility, you will receive a gift from Heaven. Therefore, all the Christians of the world should fulfill their responsibility as the bride.
Jesus said, "You shall witness unto me , unto the uttermost part of the earth." (Acts 1:8) He said, "For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it." (Matthew 16:25)
We must be people who fight to keep giving in the course of fulfilling our responsibility. That is the only way we will not be ashamed in the presence of the hearts of those who fought for the earth through historical courses, like Jesus, the bridegroom.
They did not eat when they were hungry and never had a day free of anxiety and concern. Each of you must know that you can be qualified to meet Jesus only after fulfilling your responsibilities.
There has been no fallen person who has fulfilled the responsibility to meet God. Therefore, no one has entered the Kingdom of Heaven. Even Jesus is in Paradise. Paradise is only the anteroom to the Kingdom of Heaven.
What is the hope of humankind? It is to become people who can liberate the resentment of the fall and attain the appearance of people who say, “We have fulfilled all the responsibility of being human beings,” by indemnifying the conditions of Heaven's sorrow and by going through the course of restoration. That is what Jesus has been seeking in his preparations for 2,000 years.
Filled with a heart of longing for Jesus, we must cleanse Jesus' sorrowful, historical conditions in our daily lives.
We must become victorious and walk with happiness through all the conditions of adversity that Jesus walked through with sorrow.
Christians today must walk a pioneering course and be able to prevent Jesus from going to Golgotha. They should welcome Jesus from the position of having fulfilled the responsibility of accomplishing his desire by pioneering a victorious course.
Do we have a mind that longs for that meeting? We do not. Even if one is torn apart and faces death because of the longing with which he is filled, a group must appear that possesses a sincere heart capable of going through that situation.
Only then can we have the dignity to meet Jesus, who has been trying to find us for 2,000 years.
We should be able to shout, “We want to see Heavenly Father! We know that Jesus hoped to make heaven and earth into the ideal Kingdom of Heaven.
For that Heaven of Hope to be built, there must be citizens of the Kingdom of Heaven, the land to establish the Kingdom of Heaven, the authority of the Kingdom of Heaven, and a leader who can wield that authority. Allow all people of this land to become citizens of the Kingdom of Heaven. We want to see that.”
No matter how broad this land is, there is no piece of land that God can claim as His own. There is no land about which Jesus can say, “This is mine.” Jesus did not have one piece of land about which he could say, “Satan can never invade this.”
That idea of Jesus was Heaven's idea, and the idea of a Kingdom of Heaven to be built on earth. Because there must be people who long for and agonize over wanting to see that idea realized, wanting to become citizens of God's kingdom, Jesus told his disciples to find those people, seek those people, and knock on their doors.
11We Must Fight to Build the Kingdom of Heaven
As we break apart the road of resentment that remains on earth, we must have a sincere desire to see the ideal world for which Jesus yearns in his heart. Only then can we meet the substance of that ideology.
After the first Israel perished, the second Israel, the Christians of the world, have worked hard to create that nation, race, land, and authority, and are waiting for their leader to appear. Reality does not coincide with that ideal. There is no greater sadness than this.
What is a patriot? A patriot feels miserable when he sees the citizens of his nation in pitiful situations. He feels more pain than if his body were being dismembered when he sees his land trampled upon by other nations. He feels it more keenly than the leader of his nation when he sees the leader being treated unfairly and put in a miserable position.
What words are these about being brides who must meet the Prince of Heaven?
We have the appearance of disloyalty, ugliness, and sin, and cannot even face the words. Therefore, we should have humble hearts.
When we see the rights of the citizens of Heaven being infringed and Satan trampling this land, we must fight to recover them even if we die. We have a heavenly mission to restore the authority of goodness.
Christians today must realize that the time has come to eradicate the criminals of this earth through the ideology of conscience. You must know the day of appearance and hope Jesus desires.
If there is a human being in a nation who possesses a heart of longing to see the land of ideology and its citizens, power, and leader, such as Jesus yearned for, that nation will never perish.
Such a person will have the heart to say, “I want to see that heavenly nation before dust fills my eyes, before my body disappears. I want to meet the citizens of that nation to fulfill the will of that person who went over the crisis of the cross with a heart of forgiveness.”
You must be able to say in your heart, “I want to build Heaven's land. I want to recover the authority of goodness. I want to be loyal to Jesus.”
You who have gathered here must feel, to your bone marrow, the incredible fact that our fate will come to the historical point of demanding a firm resolution as the final age becomes more imminent.
That time has come. For whom do you exist? It appears that you exist for yourself, but in actuality, you do not. It appears that you exist for your family, but you do not. It appears that you exist for your nation or the world, but you do not exist for them either.
We can conclude this: our families, our society, our nation, and our world cannot become Heaven's ideal world as things stand now.
Only by our being filled with a heart of longing and by fulfilling our responsibility can we meet the being of hope. After meeting him, how should we face him?
When Mary Magdalene tried to clutch the resurrected Jesus, Jesus refused her.
This is because Mary Magdalene had not gone through all the roads she was to walk and was not equipped with the offering she had to make. Jesus was telling us through that act that a person who has not fulfilled his responsibility and prepared his offering cannot appear before him.
Therefore, we must prepare our offering with the victorious countenance of having walked all the roads and fought all the fights.
12What is this offering?
You must become that offering. God will face you according to the kind of offering you have become. God will meet you according to the kind of offering you are.
After going through all the roads and meeting God, what shall we do?
We must receive the love of the Father.
Moreover, after participating in the last marriage celebration and achieving a reunion of happiness, what shall we do? We must receive the love of the Father. This is the hope of humankind. The last project is to receive love.
The Qualifications to Become the Owner of the Kingdom of Heaven
You must meet the hour when Heaven grants your wish gladly as you say these words: “To receive this love, I have passed through the road of death, the road of difficulties, and the road of pain.
I have endeavored even to love Satan, and I have fought to hold on to a dying life, even to become an offering in place of him. I have loved the people of this earth as You, the Father, have. I have poured out my heart upon the people who desired love. Therefore, Father, please love me!”
Jesus, whom you believe in, walked a road of tears for over thirty years. He crossed over the hills of sorrow and death. Then he resurrected and said to God, “Father, I have come. I have understood the Father's heart for 4,000 years, and I have come to this place as an offering to introduce that shimjeong. Father!”
Upon hearing that, God forgot all about His dignity, deeply lamented, and cried tears of joy. That moment was the moment of finding one's lost child and the moment a relationship was bound between heaven and earth.
Christians do not know that at that moment, God forgot His dignity, held on to Jesus, and shed tears of sorrow and tears of joy.
You also must appear in front of God and say, “I have come the way You desired. I have believed Your words of wanting to meet me and have come to meet You.
Therefore, please embrace me in Your bosom of love.” You must receive the blessing as you are embraced by God's love and as He says to you, raising His hands, “Let us live in the eternal realm of love.”
Only in that way can our ideal garden of hope, that is, the establishment of the Kingdom of Heaven, be concluded. The establishment of the Kingdom of Heaven starts with each individual perfecting himself in this way.
Jesus fought for this ideology. Our ancestors sought this ideal. All the people who are walking the way today are going toward this goal.
What is the shimjeong you must unleash? You should have a longing heart and a heart of wanting to meet, but all that must pass away. That is what individuals of the fallen world have to indemnify.
We must have the shimjeong of wanting to receive God's love. We must appear as one substance of eternal love, having received the love God built up from an eternity ago.
In this way, when God boasts in the presence of all things, in front of all humankind and in front of Satan: “I have found sons and daughters of love,” you must be able to say, “Yes, we are the fruits of love for which You have longed. We own the garden of love that You wanted to establish.”
By receiving God's true love in mind and body without dying, you must become people to whom all things, even Satan, can testify and bow their heads, proclaiming that you are the being of the hope God has sought and for which all humankind has hoped.
You are the second God, Heaven's heir, who can build the ideology of the Kingdom of Heaven in heaven and on earth and take dominion over it. Only if you do that can you become the owners of the Kingdom of Heaven and the sons and daughters of Heaven.
END OF SERMON
