True Parents’ Address
Let’s Share Blessings with All Our Brothers and Sisters
True Mother said the following at a banquet for loyal Japanese members that had contributed to the global providence. The banquet took place on November 30 at Cheon Jeong Gung.
Welcome, everyone. I wanted to see you. I had heard you have led lives of faith for anywhere from three years to forty years. I know that you have worked hard to this day in various ways in order to contribute to providential history. For that, I am thankful. However, you must not be satisfied with that. We must release all the bitter resentment in our Heavenly Parent caused by fallen humankind. We have to pay indemnity for that.
Father said that there is no perfection in ignorance. We must understand this in order to have all human being in the world enter God’s kingdom on earth, which we envision. True Parents revealed the truth. You are blessed families that received a new life thanks to True Parents. Do you feel in your everyday life how precious its value is? How much do you actually feel this as you lead a life of gratitude?
Sharing makes us wealthier
Fallen human beings have an indemnity condition that they have to establish. True Parents revealed this heavenly secret, resolved all this and bestowed the new grace of the blessing. This grace, by which you were blessed and reborn as blessed members, is unfathomable. You must pass this spirit of loyalty to the next generation. Still, that is not enough. How can we comfort our Heavenly Parent who has been in pain for six-thousand years? Through True Parents, we are aware of that path.
True Parents are the parents of humankind, so they are compelled to think about all seven billion people in the world. I do not know to what extent you live with this feeling as reality. The returning Lord and True Parents are not simply the king of one nation. They are the king of kings. They are humankind’s true owner. You have to become citizens of Cheon Il Guk that can be obedient to and submit to them. Have those blessed members that were among the first to receive the blessing made effort to accomplish God’s will from a position of unity with True Parents?
Are Japan and neighboring nations actually attending and offering a full bow to True Parents as the king of kings? When we talk about issues between Korea and Japan, politicians are involved. Do they understand God’s will? You are living at the same time as True Parents, and True Mother. That you are living at this time is precious and important. Do you realize that? Yet, responsibility has ramifications. You have to fulfill your responsibility as new tribal messiahs. The blessing is not exclusively yours. The blessing is for you to share with all your brothers and sisters in the world. The people in the world’s nations are your siblings. They are True Parents’ children. You should create a path so that they can gain life as well.
Providential history has advanced so much. Yet, there are still people who are living in the present as if it were thousands of years ago. When you think about this, isn’t it lamentable? One word that you say or one action could save them. What are you afraid of? You must reveal the truth. True Parents provide the only way to solve all problems afflicting the globe in this age today.
Would war may be necessary if the world’s people recognized True Parents and lived according to their teachings? What would then be the need for national boundaries or religions? There cannot be any conflict. We are aware of that path, yet how much longer do we have to wait? I told you that I would place you in the ranks of filial children and loyal servants. A filial child cannot emerge from a place of comfort. If someone were to claim that he were a filial child while sitting in a comfortable place even though his parents were going through hardships, who would recognize him as such?
Your current position, the position of an owner, is the highest position. From there, you can become a noble family. Whether you fulfill that responsibility or not is up to you. You should not become people who fade away. Is this not a parent’s love? We have moved beyond Foundation Day and are living in the era of Cheon Il Guk. Are you citizens of Cheon Il Guk? All humanity must become True Parents’ people. Hence, I have to embrace them as such. I have to educate them as such. Then we can save all those unfortunate people that are still living in the Old Testament age and the New Testament age. We should not be the only ones going ahead, right? You have to go with them. Do you understand?
We must attend True Parents, become true people that put their faith into action according to True Parents’ teachings and form a current of true love. This great current is surging continuously toward the world, to the vast oceans. All of you must join this current. Do not become an insignificant tributary. If you do, you will perish. New life must be born in your wake. I have given you many examples from nature. Recently, I probably told you about the story of the monarch butterfly. With its small body, it travels 5,000 kilometers from Canada to Mexico. It does so in order to multiply. The course it needs to fly was not taught to it. Yet, it finds that place, returns to its hometown, and multiplies. It travels 5,000 kilometers from Canada to Mexico. It travels for eight to ten weeks. Human beings in this fallen world are living in a way that is less profound than this small creature, this insect.
You have to stimulate people’s original minds and teach them what kind of beings we are and that we must meet the True Parents. They have to be reborn through True Parents. Only by attaining new life in this way can they return to the state that our Heavenly Parent envisioned for human beings at the time of the Creation. You are equipped with the world’s best parents, with knowledge and with everything. You have the best. Nothing is greater than what you have. In other words, you are all wealthy people. You are not wealthy people because you have a lot of money, but because you are happy and are big-hearted. Sharing this with others should be the way you live.
If you live a happy life with everything you need, the final place to go is God’s kingdom in heaven. If you lived alone in heaven, you would not be happy. You would be lonely. We have to go all together. In this light, nobody else is happier than we are; nobody else is wealthier or more deeply blessed than we are. We can share this. Yet the world does not share, right? Even though they already have something, they still want to take away from others, right? However, we share our blessings, which is why they multiply. We become wealthier. We become happier. This is all thanks to True Parents. Do you understand? You are the happiest and wealthiest people! Do you understand?
