Key Points
TM: The origin of true love, true life and true lineage is in the holy reproductive organs. Through the Fall, they became a wicked place that destroyed Heaven's principle, a place where the seeds of false love, false life and false lineage were sown.
In these Last Days sexual immorality among young people has become rampant. It is a day of judgment.
Throughout history, the cities and countries that were sexually immoral in God's eyes were destroyed.
Our love organ is solely for God’s absolute sex shared in a holy way only between husband and wife.
The unification movement is the movement of Absolute Sex.
Absolute Sex is the way to stop free sex.
The Fall drove the biggest nail into the heart of God because it stole his royal true love, life and lineage creating Satan’s false love, life, and lineage.
TF: woomyung (destiny, e.g., poverty) can be changed, but sookmyung (fate, e.g., blood lineage) cannot be changed.
Restoration is not a simple matter because fallen man cannot change the blood lineage. God’s direct son with God’s pure blood lineage needs to come.
People cannot understand why there are many Chapter Two women in Jesus’ blood lineage.
We perform evil deeds which we do not want to do because of Satan, evil spiritual world and ancestors.
A fallen man falls exactly at the same spot where his ancestor did for he does not know the principle. This is historical repetition.
To liquidate this we must pay indemnity, attend True Parents, and study and incarnate the Divine Principle and True Parents’ word.
To be liberated from Satan we must understand God (Chapter One) and Satan (Chapter Two) and know the Divine Principle and we must know God’s strategies (Be beaten to receive) and Satan’s strategies (Take first and be beaten).
Always check your motivation. Self-centeredness belongs to Satan; other centeredness belongs to heaven.
In the first stage of faith, the most important thing is to focus on cultivating yourself and putting the Word into practice.
Only witness to truth you have practiced and proven to yourself. If your actions speak louder than words, you can preserve your heart well.
If a leader becomes a model and shows how to put the Word into practice, people will follow.
If John the Baptist had been absolutely faithful and had proclaimed Jesus as the messiah, then Jesus could have stood as the messiah and proclaimed his messiahship.
The Foundation of Faith is necessary for the Foundation of Substance. We always need to follow the formula of restoration.
We can only guide an object to the extent that he trusts us, has fulfilled certain conditions, and has spiritual evidence and conviction.
A person with truth cannot express his wishes. He needs to inspire his object who must then discern his wishes and act on them. Inspired by Jesus and the Principle, True Father discerned God’s sorrow and comforted him.
A true leader has no choice but to wait until the other person’s heart is stimulated and he puts truth into practice. God is waiting for us.
True love must always be voluntary and from the heart. It requires patience, waiting, sacrifice and investment.

Yesterday, President Naokimi and I met Mr. Wayne Smith, former Mayor of Irvington, New Jersey. He was a really nice man. He came to our event and I invited him again to see him. Finally his wife and he decided to study our Divine Principle. I was very happy. We took a group photo.
Today I’d like to talk about “World Peace and the Role of Women 2” from True Mother’s Anthology, Book 2.
Because of the Fall of our ancestors, humankind could not completely inherit true love. Unfortunately, because humans were not able to become perfect as the reciprocal object partners of God's true love, the position of True Parents, who were to have been the substantial representatives of the true love of God, was not established either. What was the fundamental cause of the Fall of our first ancestors? The Bible says the Fall took place when Adam and Eve ate the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. After they ate the fruit, what did they cover? They might have covered their mouths, yet they covered the lower parts of their bodies. This suggests that they had entered into an immoral sexual relationship with the serpent, Satan. This was the fundamental cause for the multiplication of the evil lineage.
<This speech was given at a global conference of the Women's Federation for World Peace (WFWP), held on August 26, 1992 at the Sheraton Walker Hill Hotel in Seoul> The origin of true love, true life and true lineage is in the reproductive organs. Through the Fall, these reproductive organs of love, which were holy, became the wicked place that destroyed Heaven's principle. They became the headquarters of evil. Thus the seeds of false love, false life and false lineage were sown. Adam and Eve, the ancestors of humankind, fell while still immature; as teenagers. Because they fostered evil in that way, the lineage of evil spread from there into history throughout the human world. When the time of harvest in the Last Days comes, the world's young people, like Adam and Eve, will reject the ethics of love and slide toward corruption. When we see this phenomenon occurring, we will know that the age of Satan’s authority has reached its climax. The present time is the judgment day, when God's rod of iron will come down. Throughout history, the cities and countries that were sexually immoral in God's eyes were destroyed.
True Mother said, “The origin of true love, true life and true lineage is in the reproductive organs. Through the Fall, these reproductive organs of love, which were holy, became the wicked place that destroyed Heaven's principle. They became the headquarters of evil. Thus the seeds of false love, false life and false lineage were sown.”
When the time of harvest in the Last Days comes, the world's young people, like Adam and Eve, will reject the ethics of love and slide toward corruption. The present time is the judgment day, when God's rod of iron will come down. Throughout history, the cities and countries that were sexually immoral in God's eyes were destroyed.
Based on this content, let’s study Father’s word.
The Direct Road to the Kingdom of Heaven
<August 1, 1996, In Search of the Origin of the Universe> Because Satan planted a false lineage, True Parents must come and solve that. The lineage must be turned around. Because the blood lineage was turned around 180 degrees, through the Blessing it is turned back around 180 degrees. So what does God like? You must understand that God likes Adam and Eve to have absolute sex. If all of you who are gathered here today from all around the world understand this, and go back to your countries and conduct activities to advocate absolute sex, your countries will have a direct route to the Kingdom of Heaven.
Again, we must understand that the human organ of love is God's absolute sex inherited from God. Knowing that the human organ of love is never ours, we must keep it truly holy and give and receive it in a holy way between husband and wife.
God’s absolute sex is humans’ eternal home and origin. We came from our parents’ sexual organs, and human beings came from God’s sexual organ, which is absolute sex.
Wow. True Father directly explained this. That is why we need to really appreciate True Parents’ guidance and teaching. God’s absolute sex is what? Humans’ eternal home and origin. Our human ancestors misused God’s absolute sex. That is the fall. Father continues about absolute sex:
Next is the absolute couple. This does not mean homosexuals and lesbians. We need absolute couplism. Then we will be able to go to the Kingdom of Heaven. I am very grateful in front of heaven that I have been able to overcome all the ordeals throughout the course of my life in order to conduct these activities (The movement of Absolute Sex) and that we have finally come to the time when we can give the command to the world and sound the fanfare of victory. (August 1, 1996, In Search of the Origin of the Universe)
The conjugalism of the Unification Movement is absolute couplism. The unification movement is the movement of Absolute Sex. Then we will be able to go to the Kingdom of Heaven. The Kingdom of Heaven on earth starts here.
Father said this is the way to stop free sex. Absolute Sex is a direct road to heaven, but Free sex is a direct road to hell.
Father here is talking about the absolute couple. He said, “We need absolute couplism. We need eternal, unchanging couplism.” Absolute sex means our sex must be eternal, absolute, unchanging, unique sex. No one but the spouse is allowed. If we teach this absolute sexism to people, this is the way we can invite them to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. If someone does not know absolute sex, Father said, that is free sex, a direct road to hell. Our True Parents guidance is very clear. We need to understand this point.
LIVING DIVINE PRINCIPLE: The Fall
When I was attending the Unification Seminary in Korea, Korean UTS, my friend asked Rev.Yo Han Lee, UTS Principal, "What is the Fall?" At the time, we did not like him (asking that). We already heard the Divine Principle many times; why ask a question that everyone knows. However, Rev. Yo Han Lee took (his question) very seriously. He did not answer for a while. We wondered what was going on. Then, He said, "I will pray more and give you an answer later."
A week later, came and answered that the fall was like driving the biggest nail into the heart of God. I was so moved by his attitude in answering my friend's questions. I was really moved by his attitude. Everybody said, “You do not know the meaning of the fruit of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil? Many people could have said that, but Rev. Lee took (his question) very seriously. “Why did this student ask this question?” He thought and prayed about it and later gave that answer. And (the students) were very impressed with the content of the responses. The fall is said to have nailed the heart of God. I thought a lot about this and cried about it. What does the fall mean.
My conclusion about the fall of man was that the fall was the change of lineage due to the fall of Adam and Eve, and that the nail was nailed into the heart of God.
The lineage cannot be changed once a relationship is established. The fall is when true love, true life, and true lineage became false love, false life, and false lineage. The fall is the change from the lineage of God's royal family to the lineage of Satan's servants overnight.
Can you imagine that God’s royal family lineage became Satan’s servants’ blood lineage overnight?
According to True Parents, there is a difference between woonmyung and sookmyung in Korean. This is important but not easy to explain exactly what they mean. He said that woomyung (destiny) can be changed, but sookmyung (absolute destiny (or fate?)) cannot be changed. Woonmyung refers to something that a person born as the son of a poor family can change according to his efforts. But sookmyung talks about things that humans cannot change no matter how hard they try. I cannot change my physical father and mother, my parents, and children and my brothers and sisters because they are of the same blood lineage. This is sookmyung, not woonmyung.
Because of the fall of Adam and Eve, their lineage became Satan’s blood lineage. The fact is that it can never be changed. That is why God’s providence is so heavy. How can the blood lineage be changed?
Because of this sookmyung, only through the messiah is the change of lineage possible. That’s why the providence of restoration is not a simple matter. What is the conclusion? Fallen man cannot change the blood lineage. God’s direct son with God’s pure blood lineage needs to come.
That’s why some (of the) content in the Bible is difficult to understand. Many people misunderstand – “Wow! There are many Chapter Two women in Jesus’ blood lineage!” – because they do not understand the meaning of blood lineage.
I really respect the Bible because everything is written there. Only the messiah can explain clearly what the background of the lineage is.
Based on this content, let’s study EDP.
• All people have an original mind, which inclines them to pursue goodness. Yet, even without our being aware of it, we are driven by evil forces to perform evil deeds, which we do not want to do.
• In Christianity, the master of these evil forces is known as Satan.
• We have been utterly unable to liquidate the forces of Satan because we have not understood Satan's identity or how he came to exist.
“We are driven by evil forces to perform evil deeds, which we do not want to do.”
1. According to Father, we perform evil deeds which we do not want to do because of Satan, evil spiritual world and ancestors.
2. A fallen man falls exactly at the same spot where his ancestor did for he does not know the principle. And my descendants are to fall at the same spot where I fell. This is the historical repetition.
The same things are repeated again and again because they do not know the Principle and how to overcome them. Like my ancestors, my descendants will fall at the same spot. The same things will be repeated again and again.
3. Therefore to liquidate this, we have to fully pay indemnity by knowing the divine principle clearly and attending True Parents. This is the only way we can become a new ancestor.
4. Likewise we must live a life of Hoon Dok Hwe that realizes God’s words in our daily lives to be driven to perform good deeds by good forces.
5. We should continue Hoon Dok Hwe until our accumulated God’s words turn into the incarnation of God-like Jesus sent on the earth in the flesh as God’s son to save this world and until even the truth itself becomes our flesh later.
“We have been unable to liquidate the forces of Satan because we have not understood Satan and how he came to exist.”
1. If we know our enemy first, and ourselves then we can win the battle a hundred times out of a hundred.
That is why you need to understand Chapter One very clearly. What does it mean? God does exist. God is alive. God is reality. God is our parent; we are children of God.
However, in order to overcome the fallen world, we need to know Chapter Two, the reality and identity of Satan. We need to know who our enemy is. Without knowing God and Satan, how can we liquidate our fallen nature? It is impossible. Without knowing God, Satan and myself, we cannot win. That is why we need to understand thoroughly what the fall means.
2. We must understand God and Satan, after that we should clearly understand Divine Principle through True Parents.
3. We must be aware of the strategies God uses and the ones Satan uses.
> Being beaten and taking is God’s strategy and beating and being taken from is Satan’s. Therefore when you are beaten by Satan, just do not resist.
> We should go lower down than Satan is going to beat.
4. We should teach people the identity and deeds of Satan specifically in order for them to be liberated from him.
• To extirpate evil by its root, and thereby end sinful history and usher in an era of goodness,
• We must first expose the motivation and origin of Satan and recognize the destruction he has wrought in human life.
• This explanation of the human Fall will clarify these issues.
The Motivation and Origin of Satan and its Results
The motivation and origin of Satan: Whenever you turn self-centered you become Satan. You always need to closely look into the motivations in your life of faith whether they’re self-centered or God-centered. The results are taken by Satan when you put the term of ‘Yourself’ in your life of faith.
That is why you always need to check your motivation. Is my motivation for God or for my own sake? Is my motivation self-centered or God-centered? God always wants to see our motivation. When you deal with someone, you always want to check their motivation.
TODAY’S YOUTH MINISTRY: A Person with Truth Cannot Thoughtlessly Speak of His Wishes
Why We Stumble in Our Life of Faith
1. The failure of believers is not practicing the Word, just proclaiming it, and feeling disappointed when the other person does not accept it happily as they did. For many, the secret to being empowered is preserving the heart. This is very important. However, we are deprived of what can nourish our hearts in real life because we don’t use it to improve our skills or put it into practice and just lose it by putting it all on the table. In other words, if you speak first without practice, you will lose the strength to move forward. The most important thing is to have the will to grow yourself. When we witness, we must not reveal all the secrets. You must give and receive according to the degree of the other person’s growth. It's easy to make a mistake when you confide everything you have at once.
One of the reasons believers fail is that they lose the power to move forward because when they hear the Word, they first talk about it before putting it into practice. If my actions speak louder than words, I can preserve my heart well.
If I put the Word into practice and finally conclude that the Word is real and the truth, and proclaim it, my heart will not be shaken at all, no matter how the other person may change.
In the first stage of faith, the most important thing is to focus on cultivating yourself and putting the Word into practice.
When we witness, we must not disclose all secrets to those do not know the truth well. You must give and receive according to the degree of the other person’s growth. Elementary school students cannot be given college textbooks to study.
Why Jesus Couldn’t Confess that He was the Messiah
2. It is easy for people who are in charge of the church to command that the members report to them without practicing themselves. In this way, if an educator does wrong, it is easy for them to become false and a hypocrite. We are all hypocrites. Why did Jesus not proclaim the truth that he was the Messiah? Why did Jesus keep his identity a secret? This is because unless his believers and followers confess that he is the Messiah through spiritual evidence, Jesus will suffer a great loss if he announces it carelessly. Even when we are guiding an object partner, only when we teach the other person after they have done all the conditions and public achievements and experienced some undeniable spiritual evidence, then it will certainly remain theirs. That is why Jesus could not say that he was the Messiah even though he was indeed the Messiah.
People who are in charge of the church can easily become hypocrites if they do wrong. It is because they command that the members report to them without practicing themselves. We are all hypocrites to some degree. If a leader becomes a model and shows how to put the Word into practice, people will follow.
That is why I struggle every morning, every day. Am I really practicing or not? Without practicing, only proclaiming, nobody will be moved by my sharing. I need to practice, not just talk about it. That is not a simple job, right?
Why did Jesus not proclaim the truth that he was the Messiah? It was the principle for John the Baptist, prepared by God, to receive a revelation from Heaven and proclaim that Jesus was the Messiah. When John the Baptist testifies of Jesus, all the foundations that he laid become Jesus’ foundation.
Moreover, if Jesus proclaims Himself as the Messiah in an environment where John the Baptist has no faith and a foundation of faith is missing, Jesus may suffer more, and his path may become more difficult.
In accordance with the same principle, when we guide the object, we must do so according to their standard and degree of trust in me. If the other person has done all the conditions and public achievements and has some undeniable spiritual evidence, you can talk openly to them about everything.
Therefore, we must always follow the formula for restoration. That is the foundation of faith and the foundation of substance. The foundation of faith must first establish the foundation upon which God can be trusted. Without the foundation of faith, we cannot establish the foundation of substance.
That’s why we always need to follow the formula of restoration.
A Person with Truth Cannot Thoughtlessly Speak of His Wishes
3. If Jesus said that he was the Messiah when he had no foundation, people would treat him as a liar, so he could not tell the truth. However, Jesus is a true person who a person like John the Baptist should have bore testimony to. Jesus was not supposed to testify about himself. That is why a person with truth cannot say what he wants done for himself. He cannot thoughtlessly say to his object partners that he wants to eat, wear something, or lie down. False people keep confessing their desires. A true person never says what he desires. Who does that? It’s supposed to be revealed through the other person in a human relationship. The other person is supposed to make that wish come true.
Jesus himself was not supposed to testify that he was the Messiah. For this reason, a person with truth cannot say what he wants done for himself. He cannot thoughtlessly say to his object partners that he wants to eat, wear something, or lie down or give me money. You cannot request. I have to move the object and wait for them to do something.
That is why God’s providence takes a long time. John the Baptist could not fulfill his job, so Jesus had to become John the Baptist and go down and serve his disciples until they realized something. Based on that foundation, Jesus could say something.
False people keep confessing their desires. A true leader, a true person, a true parent, a true Abel, can never say what he wants. Who does that? It’s supposed to be revealed through the other person in a human relationship. The other person who has been moved is supposed to make the subject partner’s wish come true.
Be Good at Discerning Good and Evil
4. One of the mistakes we make is that we say our wishes thoughtlessly. That's why the object partners criticize. And brothers and sisters say that they are arrogant. When we witness, we worry a lot when the guest does not listen well and goes on a self-centered path. We worry a lot thinking, “This person has a big problem!” But rather than worrying about that person, God tells you to manage yourself first. We must be good at discerning good and evil. Sometimes you need treat your guest coldly. Even if you are surrounded by enemies and your friend is shot and killed, you must run away alone if you cannot carry them. You shouldn’t be killed, too. This position is pitiful, but there are times when you have to be cold.
One of the mistakes we make is that we say our wishes thoughtlessly. That's why the object partners criticize. And brothers and sisters say that they are arrogant.
God could not express his sorrowful heart because you are very young, still immature, do not know anything. That is why God has to wait and wait until you become mature, until you become God’s filial sons and daughters.
Father discovered that God is a God of sorrow and consoled and comforted him. At that time God cried together with Father. So parents cannot say much until children grow up and become filial sons and daughters. God’s providence is like that. Our situation is like that.
Therefore, a true leader has no choice but to wait until the other person’s heart is evoked and puts into practice. True love must always be voluntary, and unless it comes from the heart, it is not true love. That is why love is the path of a great deal of patience, waiting, sacrifice and investment.
Wow! True love must always be voluntary. That’s why it takes a long time. Without words we need to serve, unconditionally sacrifice and give and live for the sake of others. This is the way of true love. It does not work by force. If anything (happens) through force and power, that is not the Kingdom of Heaven. That is why God has no choice but to wait and wait until you grow up properly.
So how can we console and comfort God? We need to grow up and truly understand who God is, who True Parents are.
Today I talked about “A Person with Truth Cannot Thoughtlessly Speak of His Wishes.”
