Now you have become adults. In ancient times, second generations in the course of Canaan’s restoration had thirty-six enemy nations of seven generations. But you do not have thirty-six enemy nations. There are seven plus twelve families to overcome, which is less than twenty families. You are to be united with those families’ youths. The foundation has now been laid, which means that their parents cannot oppose them. God has made it possible. Therefore, the restoration through indemnity has been achieved substantially. Has it been in accordance with the Principle, that Teacher has been teaching or has it not? We have been fighting in this way.
So, before Teacher Blesses church members, Teacher’s family should be Blessed first. Then, the destiny of Korea and the world will be bound to you, the second generation. Therefore, this time my third daughter, Un Jin, was Blessed. You should be horizontally connected to her family, to go beyond the foundation of the family level. Do you understand? Even though you have set up the realm of family blessing, you should go down to rock bottom, where Satan cannot accuse you. Do you understand? This is the last battle, the last battle.
On the tenth, it is Teacher’s twenty-sixth year since the Holy Wedding. A full twenty-five years has past. It is now the twenty-sixth year. So this coming Blessing has historical significance. As we complete this Blessing, the satanic world cannot accuse our families. If we cannot have the Blessing of second generations, we will be finished, because of accusation, won’t we?
Next, we will see the trend that members of IFVOC (International Federation for Victory Over Communism) and all Koreans come, saying, “Let us ask Reverend Moon to give us the Blessing.” People are saying that the Unification Church marriage ceremony is wonderful. Originally, this kind of marriage ceremony should have been called “Liberation Ceremony,” to be held in style! ‘When this one is over, we may go for an eight thousand couple blessing.
What is this marriage ceremony? At this time of transition, the family should make a solid foundation. The second generation of Satan’s world will come over the bridge, which is your foundation. Do you understand? The children of Korean leaders are gradually coming over the bridge, your foundation.
The course of restoration so far has been the restoration through indemnity in Satan’s world. You climb up the hill to get redemption and to build a nation. Then, you are to come down to make the foundation, to attend Abel’s family. Teacher needs for you to do this. As Teacher has been laying the foundation, it is your turn to restore young men and women through village meetings, so that you can make the path through which everyone can go over the hill. This is the time to do it. Do you understand?
So, you are now at the frontline. This year’s motto is “Chon-gukchang-gun” (To build the Kingdom of Heaven on earth), isn’t it? You are now building the Kingdom of Heaven. Do you understand? Who will build the Kingdom of Heaven first? You should be the first. Centered upon the Unification family of the Teacher, the second-generation family must be made. By doing this, Abel-type families can be established horizontally throughout the satanic Cain world.
Up until now, people have come up centered on Teacher. Your parents have come up with you, to now stand on the same horizontal level as Teacher. So, Teacher’s family is going to make the link of balance, centered on the third daughter, Un Jin. We don’t need many: twelve families will be enough. It is okay with just three families for the condition. We don’t need much.
When you say, “I marry today,” it does not mean, “I marry somebody.” The marriage is not centered on yourself. Instead, you are making a historical revolution in the name of the Unification family. Look, you are Un Jin’s elder brothers and sisters, aren’t you? She is younger than you! She had no idea that she would be participating in this matching until eleven o’clock in the evening three days ago. She did not have any particular person in mind. She received the direction to come and prepare for the Blessing at eleven o’clock that night. There was no process of approval or agreement. We do not need this kind of approval or agreement.
We do this work quickly to make things crystal clear. It is not supposed to include thoughts from a third person. Whatever the decision, it must be done by True Parents, not by any third person. This should be done centering on True Parents. So I don’t take your parents advice into account at all.
Qualifications for Second Generation Blessing
Do you know about the foundation of faith and the foundation of substance mentioned in the Divine Principle? What is the meaning of the foundation for the Messiah? Well, who is supposed to go that course? In the Divine Principle there are details of the paths that central figures have taken. Because of that we are to indemnify all of these in our lifetime. Then you must have firm faith; but I wonder if you are all ready.
Ideally, a conscientious man who has a good personality should do what he thinks is good before he speaks about it. If you have the personality as the subject, to put into practice what you say should not make it possible for others to accuse you. Do you understand? People who are speakers should practice their speeches. In Satan’s world, even though you may be involved with fraud, they do not know the law of indemnity. But in heaven’s world, the law of indemnity is clearly unavoidable.
The Attitude for Receiving the Blessing
Fallen man should not marry. That’s why there are nuns and priests of Buddhist and Catholic faiths. Why? The first ancestors of mankind were not able to marry, so you, as descendants of thousand’s of generation, can you marry? The kind of person who goes against Heaven will perish. There is a saying by Confucius, “The one that attends heaven increases, but those who oppose heaven decrease.” Are you qualified to receive the Blessing? Are you? Are you out of Satan’s realm of accusation? How are you doing now? Are you not hesitating with how to go the Way of the Will? Those who are like that shouldn’t be here, because your conscience will accuse you.
Your eyes: raise your head. Let’s see your eyes. In your eyes, how many ways of seeing people do you have? Handsome man, ugly man, plain man, do you see them in such a way? You see people in three standards, don’t you? In your eyes, do you see beautiful woman, ugly woman, and plain woman? Do you see like this or not? In the time of Adam and Eve, were there handsome men or ugly women or man and woman in between? Were there, or not? (There were not) Therefore in your eyes, you should be absolute, absolute and unwavering. Handsome men, ugly men and men in between are all the same. You have distorted vision. I can see you people trumpeting to me, “handsome man, handsome man!” According to the Principle, do you approve or not approve? Please answer, do you approve it or not? (We should approve it) Handsome man, not so handsome man, or ugly man, those who view men in three standards like this cannot have a true marriage. That will be a false marriage. Some of you here are closely related to Satan.
Did Adam have the right of choice? Did Eve have the right to choose out of many men, and did Adam have the right to choose out of many women? Did they or not? (No, they did not) There was only one man for Eve to turn to, even when she was crying joyful tears. She could see only one man, Adam. Even if he had broken legs or even worse, there was only one man, Adam. She was not allowed to see two men. Also Adam, wherever he ran around, no one else was there. He could not see two women. Could Adam and Eve select whom they liked? “I don’t like Eve. I want another woman,” could he behave like this? If he had been stubborn, he would have lived alone for a long time and then died. Humanity would have perished. This means that his race would have ended. If you marry whomever you want to, it is hell; but if you marry not according to your own will, then it is like the Kingdom of Heaven.
Now there is only the Unification world. Even the Communists are talking about it. Try to fight the Communists in the university campuses. Communists will be pushed out, not the Unification Church. Go and fight them. Now the unified world is near. In that world you should be proud of tradition. This means to be proud of the tradition of the Principle.
You come here without lipstick on, fearing Teacher’s chastisement. You look into the mirror and say, “How ugly I look! Who would like to have me!” But it will be okay as long as Teacher’s mind accepts you. Teacher will choose a good groom or bad groom. If you have a bad mind, no matter how beautiful you are, through my eyes I can see you going over the hill with one eye closed. Then, how can I get a good groom for you? This Teacher is a mysterious person. Did you know that? That’s why I know if a country will perish and also the world.
Well, do you want to be matched quickly or not? (Quickly) The way to have a quick matching is to have people line up in two lines, close your eyes and grab one person each! Then how can you complain? The simplest way is to leave it up to your own destiny. Shall we do it that way?
I like that way too. I will pray for God’s full guidance. Everybody turn around. You don’t know whether the person is a man or woman? Then men should take their watches off and women should keep them on. “Wow, this is my husband, my wife.” “Thank you.” Then you open your eyes. Next, it is possible that when you look he could be very handsome. The glasses of love are the glasses of harmony of Heaven and Earth. Through that pair of glasses, even an ugly man with a rough and bumpy face looks so handsome. It is a blessing to have even a pock-marked person. You have such a face for the tears of love to fill the pock holes. With that thought in mind, as you feel his face, you may feel good. The taste of first love can digest the whole universe and can do even more.
