Jin Choon Kim: The Lord of the Second Advent should absolutely Fulfill God's Will in His Generation -- Part 4
2012-11-19 · Source: tparents.org
In February 2012 Dr. Jin Choon Kim, the president of our Cheong Shim Graduate School of Theology told European Leaders Father originally should have fulfilled God’s ideal during his life-time as the Lord of the Second Advent: “If you read Divine Principle and the eight textbooks Father mentioned so many times, so many times, the Lord of the Second Advent should establish God’s ideal before going to spirit world. Many, many places you will find from Divine Principle and other textbooks.
Father said, according to the exposition of the Divine Principle the Lord of the Second Advent will come on earth to complete the providence of restoration. To complete the providence of restoration and to complete the providence fulfilling God’s purpose of creation. That is the mission of True Parents together with us, not only our members but all humankind.”
In the slide presenting these points of the mission of the Lord of the Second Advent it even says in the second line: “to surely complete the providence fulfilling God’s purpose of creation”.
The lecturer stated: “The Lord of the Second Advent will engraft all humankind physically and spiritually as God’s children. But we are not God’s children yet, completely. But that is the mission of the Lord of the Second Advent.
The Lord of the Second Advent should realize God’s Will absolutely, not just conditionally. And also the Lord of the Second Advent comes to earth to restore the whole world realizing the three Great Blessings physically and spiritually. So we can see how much difficult mission True Parents have — very, very difficult…
The Lord of the Second Advent should definitely establish the Kingdom of Heaven on earth. So we must think of this basic teaching of the 8 textbooks in order to understand the time after Foundation Day. … we will see the Lord of the Second Advent will never die until he fulfills the purpose of the providence.
… we cannot deny the basic teaching of the 8 textbooks. This is very basic, very basic teaching of the 8 textbooks. We cannot deny in order for us to understand the reality of our church, within our church or outside of our church.”
These are the statements by the president of the Cheong Shim Graduate School of Theology in February 2012 and now after Father’s ascension the main Korean lecturer teaching about True Parents’ life course claimed in his lectures as he did in
London on the last weekend of October: “True Parents have fulfilled all their responsibilities.” That is the opposite of what Rev. Kim explained in his lectures a few months earlier.
What happened? Contrary to what the president of our graduate school had previously taught in accordance to the fundamental teachings of the eight sacred texts that the LSA must establish a substantial Kingdom on earth before passing to the spirit world, now we are being told that True Parents have fulfilled all their responsibilities That is how far our movement has stooped, changing our doctrine in order to match a different outcome!
Just as the Christians did with the words of Jesus, we are now re- interpreting Father’s words. For example, Father having spoken of his becoming 117 years old was explained by Rev. Jin Hyun Yong referring to Father having slept only three and a half hours which means that he lived like 117 years on the earth compared to the average person who sleeps much longer. It is a nice explanation like many others which were offered but their purpose is to distract the attention of the audience from the fact that Father could not fulfill the mission of the Lord of the Second Advent. In this respect it is strongly emphasized that Father said in his last prayer that he had accomplished everything: “Today, as I have returned the completion of the final perfection to the Father. I am aware that I have offered my whole life up to this moment to the Father. According to His will I am spending this time to bring my life to a conclusion, using this time to bring it to a close with Jeongseong… I have accomplished all these tasks, I have accomplished everything.”
Yes, Father did all he could but that does not mean that the mission of the Lord of the Second Advent which he set out to fulfill was achieved. Instead of telling the members that Father could not do what Christ was supposed to accomplish at his return the leaders speak of Father’s premature passing as God’s providence in order to avoid the question as to why Father had to leave this earth without the goal of his work being manifested concretely.
Just as Adam and Eve denied their responsibility for the Fall and Cain for killing Abel, our leaders are doing it today in respect to the Lord of the Second Advent having died on the cross. With such an attitude we only enlarge the unspeakable tragedy of our having killed Christ at his Second Coming due to our irresponsible attitude.
Our not taking responsibility for our sin means that God cannot work and no resurrection and revival is possible based on Father having made the ultimate sacrifice of offering his life so that we may be revived in the Love of God based on deepest repentance.
The lecturer mentioned “dual prophesy” in connection with Father having died at the age of 93 even though he spoke of becoming 117 years old. What does dual prophesy mean? The outcome depends on man fulfilling his responsibility. We did not fulfill our part and therefore the original prophesy of Father living until the completion of
the three times 12 year courses for the substantial realization of Cheon Il Guk was not fulfilled.
In other words, because we did not take the teaching of the True Parents to heart and act upon it Father had to die as an offering for the providence to be continued. This fact is not taught but hidden or ignored by the ignorant leadership of our church and still we follow them, proving Father right who has called us idiots at the beginning of this year.
All kinds of explanations were offered like in the lecture with the title “Completion of Restoration and Foundation Day” where the topic of one slide says: “Numerical significance of true Father’s Seonghwa” As point A “Numerical mission of 1st, 2nd, 3rd Adam” it is explained that Adam became 933 years old (afterwards his life was shortened). Jesus became 33 (achieving only spiritual salvation) and Father 93 years (completed both physical and spiritual). This shows that all 3 Adams are one expressed in 933-33-93.
Yes, they are one in their reality that all three could not realize God’s original Will for them. But the audience did not hear about this fact from the lecturer. According to what Father has been teaching in the 8 Great textbooks Father did not fulfill the mission of the Lord of the Second Advent and still our main international lecturer who taught already in more than 50 nations says that Father completed physical salvation.
The president of our highest institution of learning to raise leaders for the future, our graduate school of theology, and the main international lecturer teach completely contrary things concerning the fulfillment of Father’s mission. Such a situation means that division of our movement on the level of theological interpretation has already begun and it is only a matter of time that we will have many denominations of the Unification Church as we see in Christianity.
We are still prisoners in the realm of religion and blind believers of our leaders. None in the audience stood up and asked Rev. Jin Hyun Yong why he is teaching the opposite of what Rev. Jin Choon Kim explained a few months earlier. It seems that Moonies are very easily manipulated and they believe whatever they are told by their leaders. Most of all I am in a state of shock that our worldwide membership does not care to find out what Father said in the thousands of Hoon Dok Hae meetings of which no official recording or report was published or released. Not even the question is asked, what Father really said in his final prayer of which we got to know only a very short excerpt.
Slowly I start to believe that it is true what we have been accused of for years, that Moonies are Zombies without their own will, who just do what they are told. Or even worse, that the vast majority of our worldwide membership is spiritually dead just as True Father is physically no longer on this earth.
Externally one may still be going to church but who really cares about God’s desire to build a world of True Love? I am desperately looking for brothers and sisters who are
still alive, who care for the world and not just for themselves and their loved ones, their own families and friends – but not for their enemies.
However one may put it, we have become super-hypocrites who have the highest ideals in our theories but when it comes to practicing our teaching the opposite can be seen in daily life. We may be busy with all kinds of things but do we care for what really counts, to be absolutely one with God and with one another as true brothers and sisters?
At his final stop of the European Lecture Tour Rev. Jin Hyun Yong brought a comparison between the situation at the time of Jesus’ death and the present time in which he pointed out that after Jesus resurrection there was: 1. Repentance, Holy Spirit, Pentecost 2. Interest in the essence 3. Centered on heaven 4. Absolute faith and belief 5. Salvation and conviction in the messiah 6. Disciples carry out miracles and revival
Rev. Yong’s lectures were offered under the theme “Let us become the Heirs of True Parents’ Life Course and Teaching”. His conclusion on October 28, 2012 was concerning Foundation Day and blessed families: 1. We dutifully serve the True Parents of heaven, earth and humankind who have become the trinity with God through origin-division-union action.
2. We are the direct children of God. 3. We are the blessed families of God. 4. God dwells within me. 5. I will follow God’s commands.
How many of us live in the awareness that we are the direct children of God? If we really believe in such an understanding, why do we still maintain a church and religion when God is already dwelling in us? Why do we still speak about following commands when the end of the time for following commands was officially declared already 31 years ago in the Historical Children’s Day speech?
To make a long story short: The teachings of our top lecturers contradict each other and our practice is far away from what True Father has taught us for decades. We live with all kinds of contradictions but most members do not mind because we are more or less spiritually dead from the viewpoint of being interested in practicing True Love.
We have become hypocrites of the worst kind who say nice things but who actually do not care at all when it comes to really uniting beyond national and religious borders. I have been reaching out on that level and know what I am speaking about when I say this. So far I could find hardly any member in our movement who is really dedicated to love people on the worldwide level beyond religion in the realm of True Love which is absolutely honest and sincere in relationships.
Continuing to search for those who really and truly care for God’s children,
Your brother Nikolaus
