Hyung Jin Nim's couple needs a Victory of the Resentment of Heaven and Earth

Some conclude that when True Parents gave the Word to Hyung Jin Nim’s couple that he automatically became True Parents heir without any condition or necessary growth even though in my reading of Father’s prayer and words it is abundantly clear that Hyung Jin Nim’s couple needs a Victory of the Resentment of Heaven and Earth. Here is another reason why more needs to be done in order to fulfill as the heir to True Parents.

As a conclusion to today’s speech, I’d like to give you one of the reasons why Father speaks about something after he has overcome it. God’s word must become your own; the reason why God gives us His word is to make us one with it. The first man who was given God’s word couldn’t become one with it; God gave the blessings to man, but man couldn’t make them his own. God gave love to man, but he couldn’t become one with it. What’s the purpose of God giving His word or blessings to man? It is for man to become one with God by making him first one with His word and blessings.

If you become one with God’s love, you can give that love to many people. When you become one with God, the source of love and truth, you can give God’s love and truth infinitely; however much you give, they will never diminish. Therefore, to become one with God is most important.

We may give and give and still not become one with God; in fact, the more we give the more empty we

become. Why? When we accept God’s word, we need a period of time to become one with it. The stage of understanding is not yet the stage of uniting; it becomes yours when you start practicing the word. You practice it once, twice, three times and gradually you become united with the word.

We usually start speaking the word at the level of the understanding of our mind before the practice. Before you tell others to practice the word, you yourself must practice what you’ve understood. You must understand it with your mind and practice it with your body. When you learn how to skate, you first get an explanation and next you practice it. Then you know what skating is.

Father’s words are given to us after he has overcome. He first gets a victory over something and examines many times whether the same result comes out if he follows that word and, then, if it does, Father gives us the word as his word. Father doesn’t tell a story he has heard from others; he himself gets the word by his own victory. Therefore he can give the word once, twice, a hundred times and still he does not become empty.

We get tired speaking the word which is only understood in our mind. What you say can revive people’s minds but not their lives. Here is a difference between Father and you. Suppose Father and you say the same word: “Live for others.” Even though the words are the same, the impression listeners get is different from when Father says them and when you say them. It will be different from when you say them and when your members say them. Please don’t forget there is a period when you make the word your own.

However long you’ve been in the Unification Church, if you have not practiced the word, you will get no joy; you don’t understand the true value of the word. Who do you like better: a person who speaks much or a person who speaks little but practices much? You like a person who loves you truly even though he doesn’t speak any words of love, better than a person who speaks much about love but practices none.

When you speak, please don’t speak out all you have in your mind. If you have 10 things to say, please leave out three of them. You must have had an experience where you became empty after you spoke to others. Those who have not spoken to others would not know this. It is true that we have felt empty after we spoke to others. If you give all you have, you have nothing left in you. When you have much in your mind you must be very happy. Suppose you had ],000 and gave it all away. How would you feel? You must have been happy when you gave it away, but now you must feel empty. It is the same thing. Father taught this: if you give all you have, you become empty and then you have to fill up again. You pray in order to revive yourself. Then, at that time, you need a foundation on which you can revive yourself.
