Introduction Divine Spirits
The spirit can grow only while it abides in the flesh.
Thus, the relationship between the physical self and the spirit self is similar to that between a tree and its fruit.
When the physical mind obeys the spirit mind and the physical self acts according to the good purpose of the spirit mind, the physical self receives living spirit elements from the spirit self and becomes wholesome. In return, the physical self provides good vitality elements to the spirit self, which enable the spirit self to grow properly in the direction of goodness.
Introduction
It can be inferred from the above that the spirit self can attain perfection only during a person’s earthly life. The spirit mind guides the spirit self as it grows in the soil of the physical self.
The growth of the spirit self toward perfection progresses through the three orderly stages ordained by the Principle of Creation.
A spirit in the formation stage of life is called a form spirit; in the growth stage, a life spirit; and in the completion stage, a divine spirit.
Introduction
A spirit fully matures as a divine spirit when the person’s spirit self and physical self unite through perfect give and take action centered on God and form the four position foundation.
A divine spirit can accurately feel and perceive every reality in the spirit world. As these spiritual realities resonate through the body and manifest themselves as physiological phenomena, they can be recognized through the five physical senses.
Introduction
People of divine spirit, who thus resonate with the spirit world, build the Kingdom of Heaven on earth.
When they shed their physical bodies, they will make a smooth transition into the Kingdom of Heaven in the spirit world.
For this reason, the Kingdom of Heaven in heaven will be realized only after the Kingdom of Heaven on earth has been established.
Divine Spirit Be you therefore perfect, even as your Father who is in heaven is perfect. /Math 5:48
Divine Spirit
Jesus said: But I want you to know that the Son of Man (Divine Spirit) has authority on earth to forgive sins.”
So he said to the (paralyzed) man, “I tell you, get up, take your mat and go home.” He got up, took his mat and walked out in full view of them all.
This amazed everyone and they praised God, saying, “We have never seen anything like this!”
Divine Spirit
Transfiguration by Lodovico Carracci, 1594, depicting Elijah, Jesus, and Moses with the three apostles.
What did Jesus come to do? He came to establish a family. The history of salvation is the history of restoration. Those who are sick need to be healed. Jesus came in order to save fallen people.
Then what is salvation? Since the family was destroyed, it must be restored.
Then why must humankind restore the family? Why did Jesus have to come to establish his family?
Because the original family had been destroyed. Humankind is sick and in need of healing; people are fallen and must be restored. (23-13, 1969.5.11)

Divine Principle
Christ at the Second Advent brings the new truth with which to fulfill the promises of the Old and New Testaments; it may be called the Completed Testament.
Believing in this truth, people are to serve and attend the Lord on the earth, that they may fulfill their responsibility for the providence and be justified before God.
Therefore, this era is called the age of justification by attendance.
Divine Principle
By believing in and serving the Lord and devoting themselves to his work, people of this era are to be fully resurrected both spiritually and physically, become divine spirits, and live in the Kingdom of Heaven on earth.
When they shed their physical bodies, as spirits they will enter and abide in the Kingdom of Heaven in heaven, which is the divine-spirit level of the spirit world.
Is Jesus God
On the grounds of all these Biblical verses, many Christians have hitherto believed that Jesus is God Himself, the Creator.
As demonstrated above, Jesus, as a man having fulfilled the purpose of creation, is one body with God.
So, in light of his deity, he may well be called God. Nevertheless, he can by no means be God Himself.
The relationship between God and Jesus can be compared to that between the mind and body.
The body, as the substantial object which resembles the mind, is one body with the mind, so it may be called a second mind (image of the mind), but the body can by no means be the mind itself.
In like manner, Jesus, being one body with God, may be called a second God (image of God), but he can by no means be God Himself.
It is true that he who has seen Jesus has seen God (John 14:9-10); but Jesus did not say this to indicate that he was God Himself.
It is written (John 1:14) that Jesus is the Word made flesh.
This means that Jesus is the substantiation of the Word; that is, the incarnation of the Word.
Then, it is written (John 1:3) that all things were made through the Word, and again (John 1:10), that the world was made through Jesus; naturally, Jesus may be called the Creator.
According to the principle of creation, the world of creation is the substantial development of the character and form of a man of perfected individuality.
So, a man who has fulfilled the purpose of creation is the substantial encapsulation of the entire cosmos, and the center of harmony in the whole creation.
In that sense, it may also be said that the world was created by a man of perfection.
God intended to have man, after his perfection through the fulfillment of his own portion of responsibility, stand in the position of the creator over all things, by giving him even His own creative nature.
Seen from this perspective, we can understand that the Bible (John 1:10) only clarifies the fact that Jesus was a man who had perfected the purpose of creation, and does not signify that he was the Creator Himself.
Jesus was a descendant of Abraham; but since he came as the human ancestor giving rebirth to all mankind, he would become the forefather of Abraham, in light of the providence of restoration.
This is why Jesus said (John 8:58), “… before Abraham was, I am.”
We must understand that this also does not signify that Jesus was God Himself.
Jesus, on earth, was a man no different from us except for the fact that he was without original sin.
Even in the spirit world after his resurrection, he lives as a spirit man with his disciples.
The only difference between them is that Jesus abides as a spirit man of the divine spirit stage, emitting brilliant light, while his disciples are the objects who reflect this light.
Meanwhile, Jesus has been interceding for us before God even in the spirit world after his resurrection (Rom. 8:34), just as he did on earth. If Jesus is God Himself, how could he intercede for us before Himself?
Comment: “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus” 1 Tim. 2:5
Mediator is between 2 parties. Like Jesus mediates for man between God and satan. You can not mediate if you are God. That´s like being both defender and Judge in the court
Moreover, we see that Jesus also called upon “God” or “Father” for help, which is good evidence that he is not God Himself (Matt. 27:46, John 17:1)
If Jesus was God Himself, how could God have been tempted by Satan, and finally crucified by the evil force?
Furthermore, when we find that Jesus said on the cross, “My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” it becomes clear that Jesus is not God Himself.
Message from Spirit World 1965
The Jesus of Galilee will not return - it is not necessary.
The Christ who manifested through him is the Eternal – he will manifest again. (New Adam)
Mr. Moon in deep meditation can project himself and be seen just as Jesus has been able to project himself and be seen by the saints.
This is one of the marks - of the messiahs always.
This is the end of an age, and the battle that is raging is really Armageddon. It’s a battle between the selfish, brutal men who do not think in terms of God or things which are associated with that word - against those peoples who will be the harbingers of the New Age.
You are now in the new Age - and old things are being destroyed - and new things - which are eternal but which are new only because mankind has now reached the point where it is able to recognize them and use them.
‘From the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and violent men take it by force. /Mathew 11:12
The revelators seldom live to see their revelations widely accepted. But they do always draw to them – and leave behind them – a group who continue the revelation.
But it is not likely that everyone will accept it, because it needs education and it will take time.
Nobody can give away perfection.
Perfection was the ideal, and perfection was mans goal from the beginning, but man choose himself to loose that perfection, and she must now choose to return to it.
But you cannot expect the message to be accepted immediately by vast numbers of people only those who are ready and who are willing to listen and to whom this particular message seems to be right and meaningful.
That is the way that all the world teachers have had to go.
And remember one thing only, that if it is of God, it can not fail. And it is of God.
/Arthur Ford sitting 1965
Heavenly Inspiration
Divine Principle on Divine Spirits
Divine Principle
The Kingdom of Heaven and Paradise
Some Christians have been unclear in their concepts of the Kingdom of Heaven and Paradise because they lack a full understanding of the Principle.
Had Jesus completed his mission as the Messiah on earth, the Kingdom of Heaven on earth would have been established in his day.
The Kingdom of Heaven in heaven would also have been realized at that time, once people of perfect character living in the Kingdom of Heaven on earth had passed into the spirit world as divine spirits.
Divine Principle
However, because Jesus died on the cross, the Kingdom of Heaven on earth was not realized.
The earth never saw the appearance of people who had reached the level of a divine spirit.
No one has ever become a citizen of the Kingdom of Heaven in the spirit world, which was created as the home of divine spirits.
Therefore, the Kingdom of Heaven in heaven remains empty and incomplete.
Divine Principle First Resurrection
The hope of all Christians is to participate in the first resurrection.
But who in fact shall participate? It will be those who are the first to believe in, serve and follow Christ at the Second Advent.
Divine Principle First Resurrection
They will assist him in fulfilling all the indemnity conditions worldwide and in accomplishing the providence of restoration.
In the process, they will be the first to have their original sin removed, become divine spirits, and fulfill the purpose of creation.

Divine Principle Completion-Stage Returning Resurrection
The spirits of people who believed in Jesus while they lived on earth during the New Testament Age became life spirits and entered Paradise after death.
After the Second Advent, these spirits will all return to the earth to help faithful people believe in and attend the returning Christ.
By thus helping people on earth to attain the level of divine spirit, they too will receive the same benefit and become divine spirits.
Divine Principle The Unification of Christianity through Returning Resurrection
At the time of the Second Advent, all life spirits who dwell in Paradise descend to the people on earth who, by believing in and attending the Lord, can attain the level of divine spirit.
By cooperating with these people to fulfill God’s Will for the providence of restoration, the spirits can share the same benefit and enter the Kingdom of Heaven.
Accordingly, all the spirits will descend from Paradise in that day and assist the believers on the earth.

What is the Spirit? Some Physics of Spiritual Existence

UTS David Burton 2007
Spiritual Existence
According to the Divine Principle, the created cosmos consists of a spiritual realm and a physical realm created after the pattern of the human being.
Human beings are then seen to consist of a spiritual self and a physical self, where the spiritual self and physical self both have mind and body.
This gives us a fundamental structure of four components to human existence: spirit mind, physical mind, spirit body and physical body.
UTS David Burton 2007
This idea of a spirit body is significantly different to traditional Western thought that limits bodily manifestation, with its attributes of quantity, divisibility and extension in space, to the physical realm.
Indeed, the Divine Principle is quite serious about the notion of a spirit body, even ascribing to it five spiritual senses with which to perceive an embodied spiritual realm.
UTS David Burton 2007
There are four kinds of sungsang and hyungsang in human nature. First each human being is a substantial image integrating all things.
We contain in our sungsang and hyungsang not only the sungsang-hyungsang elements of the animal kingdom, plant kingdom, and mineral kingdom, but also the sungsang-hyungsang elements unique to human beings, namely the spirit mind and the spirit body.
UTS David Burton 2007
Second each person is a being of united mind and body.
And third, each human being is a being with a dual mind consisting of a spirit mind and a physical mind.
In the human mind the faculties of intellect, emotion and will of both the spirit mind and the physical mind are unified, and intellect, emotion, and will are also unified.
UTS David Burton 2007
Andrew Wilson’s Ten Characteristics of Spiritual Existence
1. People in the spirit world live as embodied forms and carry on all major life activities. 2. Energy in the spirit world flows directly from God, shining as the sun of love to illuminate and govern 3. Spirit world is a world of thought; communication occurs through thought, and thoughts can immediately induce movement or the materialization of things. 4. In the spirit world form is not fixed, but is far more plastic, reflecting the spirit’s inward character
UTS David Burton 2007
Andrew Wilson’s Ten Characteristics of Spiritual Existence
5. Human beings and angels exist for eternity, rooted in their unchanging essence 6. The spirit body that forms an envelope around the spirit may be of various levels of denseness, according to the realm in which the spirit exists. In general, the spirit body is composed of elements fitting for the realm in which it dwells. There seems to be a correlation between the spirit body and the surroundings environment.
UTS David Burton 2007
Andrew Wilson’s Ten Characteristics of Spiritual Existence
7. There is no multiplication in the spirit world. 8. Human beings are co-creators of the environment in the spirit world. 9. Animals, plants and inanimate objects exist, not eternally, but only insofar as there are humans who treasure them. 10. Due to the Fall spirit world is divided into various realms, arranged in concentric circles “above” and “below” the earth
UTS David Burton 2007
Spiritual Body and Energy
The attributes of bodies — spatial extension, quantity and divisibility — are also to be applied to spiritual existence.
In other words, we are led to postulate the existence of matter in the spiritual realm.
UTS David Burton 2007
The first conclusion is that this energy must be associated with, or actually is, some kind of particle or particles, and those particles are probably of a different type to those currently known to science.
UTS David Burton 2007
Secondly, if energy is associated with spiritual existence, we would expect there to be some observable consequences for the physical realm.
Since energy and mass are equivalent, energy in the spirit realm will have a mass equivalence, and we should expect as a minimum to see some gravitational effects in the cosmology of the physical realm.
UTS David Burton 2007
Normal matter that we commonly know only comprises about 5% of the energy density in the observable universe.
The other 95% is divided between dark energy and dark matter. The word “dark” is used because physicists do not know what they are, although they can indirectly observe their effects.
UTS David Burton 2007
Dark energy is responsible for an accelerating expansion of the physical universe. It is currently thought to account for about 70% of the energy in the universe.
UTS David Burton 2007
Dark matter is required from the observed clumpiness of the universe and the observed motions of galaxies. It accounts for about 25% of the energy in the universe.
Its distribution in the universe can be mapped by inference from the observed motions of stars, galaxies and galaxy clusters.
In particular each galaxy is thought to be embedded in an “halo” or sphere of dark matter with filaments of dark matter connecting galaxies and galactic clusters to give a large scale “web” connecting all the matter in the universe (see Figure 1).
UTS David Burton 2007
Fig.1 Thus we are completely surrounded by dark matter, but it is invisible.

Jesus Resurrection
Celebrated: 3 Days after Crucifixion
It was the night before Easter in the year I turned sixteen. I was praying all night and begging God in tears for answers. Why had He created a world so filled with sorrow and despair?
My encounter with Jesus changed my life completely. His sorrowful expression was etched into my heart as if it had been branded there, and I could not think of anything else. From that day on, I immersed myself completely in the Word of God. /Biography SMM

Divine Jesus Spiritually in the clouds over Korean War 1950-53.
“During the four years I lived in Seoul church, under the same roof as Sun Myung Moon.
At one point, I returned to clean my own home for a week.
Someday when I brushed the entrance, so appeared, he suddenly in spiritual form (Divine Spirit), full size in front of my door.
I had never before seen such a vibrant spirit before.
He told me that he woke up every morning and looked out over the Han River, and longed for my return. He missed me and wanted me back would live in the church, even though I only been gone a week. “

• O LORD my God, I called to you for help and you healed me. /Psalm 30:12
• Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness. /Matthew 9:35
• Crowds gathered also from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing their sick and those tormented by impure spirits, and all of them were healed.
Dr. Young Oon Kim
After arriving in Korea, I had become quite ill from the water and living conditions in Pusan, flooded as it was with war refugees. A year later Ewha University returned to its old campus in Seoul and I moved along with it. I remained ill and worsened to the point where I thought I was to die.
Dr. Young Oon Kim
During this time I heard a voice that said, “This is a spiritual crisis”. After a few days, a woman came and told me that the Lord of the Second Advent had appeared in Korea and that I should study the new truth that he brought.
I laughed. This was so shocking!
Dr. Young Oon Kim
But I felt curious and wanted to investigate, knowing that if it were false I could quickly dismiss it, but that if it were true, it was a matter of life and death! Soon I became terribly ill, and Dr. Helen Kim sent for an ambulance, which took me to the university hospital.
Dr. Young Oon Kim
After returning home I visited the house where Reverend Moon was teaching and heard lectures on Divine Principle.
On the third day I was completely healed of my lingering illness.

Language in Spiritual World
Source: The Good guy
All speech (no matter what the language) has its origins in the ideas and emotions of our intellect and heart.
In the spiritual world—which is closer to the origins of our being and mind—individuals communicate their ideas and affections directly to others (forgoing terrestrial words).
Source: The Good guy
Spiritual speech is like a psychical hologram, displaying all the views of one’s personal humanity. No one can lie on this interior level!
Inwardly, we are nothing other than what we think and desire—whether you believe in God or not.

We humans have also been designed to examine our thoughts and feelings so that we can determine our true nature and make refinements that are harmonious with our conscience.
According to scientist/theologian Emanuel Swedenborg, the human race was created solely to become receptive forms of God’s love and wisdom.

Mr. Moon in deep meditation can project himself and be seen just as Jesus has been able to project himself and be seen by the saints.
This is one of the marks - of the messiahs always.
He (Jesus) was - as many of you will be - he was an instrument, a vehicle, through whom an incarnation took place.
And the continuation of the incarnation the Christ, not Jesus, but a Christ, is the Holy Spirit.
This Holy Spirit has never been silent - never been inactive. And in this age you are moving from a limited universe into the universe in which the creative spiritual force that is called God - in many names ~ and worshiped in many ways - will touch the hearts of people, and many prophecies will be fulfilled.

Remarkable Messages from the Spiritual Realm
Jesus’ Message to Christians and All People on Earth
“I came to Earth with the mission from God to be the Messiah. In the Bible I could not reveal all of the conflicts between the religious believers and non-believers in those days. In fact, there are many providential matters that the Bible does not reveal.”
2001 “Dear Christians and all people on Earth, please pray over this matter while fasting. Then I will appear to you and clearly tell you the truth. When you do it, you should pray with a pure heart.
Reverend Sun Myung Moon is the one who came to Earth to complete my mission that was not fulfilled through the redemption of the cross.
He comes as the True Parent to conclude God’s providence in the Completed Testament Age.”
2001 “Reverend Sun Myung Moon is the returning Messiah for whom you have been waiting and waiting. He inherited my mission at the age of 16.
Dear Christians, are you still looking up and waiting for Christ to return on the clouds?
Reverend Moon travels throughout the world on the clouds.
He is investing all of his heart and soul for the realization of world peace.”
2001 “Dear fellow Christians, fellow Buddhists, and believers of various religions!
The four great religious founders, Jesus, Buddha, Confucius, and Mohammed, and saints such as Socrates, Augustine and others, have already held this seminar a number of times.
Its theme is always the same: ‘God is the Parent of All Humankind.’
During the seminars, we are always studying the Divine Principle revealed by Reverend Moon. “ /Jesus 2001
St Paul 2001
St Paul 9th of September 2001:
“Now after learning the Principle, I became even more confident that the Apostle Paul’s traditional view of God was very mistaken.
We necessarily should have attended God, the resurrected Jesus and the Messiah.
Whenever people frustrated God’s Will, they prolonged the history of the Dispensation for Restoration, requiring a new central figure.”
St Paul 2001
True Parents! The partial ideas Paul planted into Christianity have acted as obstacles to the providence of the Messiah, haven’t they?
Now in spirit world I will never repeat my mistakes.
I promise to study the Principle and lead Christian believers here in the right direction.
I have been making thorough preparation for accomplishing my assigned mission.
/Paul 9. 11. 2001
Testimony from Sister Doris UK.
“One afternoon I was on the mountainside, hunting deer. As I waited very still, suddenly the same Oriental man whom I had seen with Jesus appeared in front of me, smiling.
The perfume coming from him was like a strong, perfumed cedar smell. It was just intoxicating. He spoke to me very strongly, saying, ‘Lay down your gun and come hunt souls with me.’ I was so overwhelmed by this experience that I literally threw my gun to the ground. ‘Doris, truly this is a sign from Heaven’” /Doris Walder
Jesus SMM 1970s
The next time I came, they led me to the study room and gave me a book written by Dr. Young Oon Kim, introducing the Divine Principle revelation.
When I read the passage about the similarity of the time of Jesus’ birth and the Second Coming, I started to joke about this “nonsense.”
In the next moment, I was stunned.
I saw Jesus pass through the room, saying, “I am in this place!”
Then he disappeared as he had entered. A wave of peace settled around me.
In the following days, I was so concerned not to make a mistake. When I knelt down to pray to ask if this was really the truth, it was ringing from all sides, “Yes! Yes!” and God chastised me gently, “Why do you ask me again? This was my answer.”
From that time on, I started to study the Divine Principle and Reverend Moon with a calm mind and the assurance that God and Jesus had led me there.

All of a sudden, something in the form of a soft light appeared at the foot of my bed. It did not speak and I was not afraid, but I had a strong feeling that it was a spiritual manifestation of Jesus.
I believed he was trying to tell me something, but I wasn’t sure what it was. After the vision faded, a strong conviction came to me that this “appearance” was a confirmation that the revelation from Sun Myung Moon, which I had been studying, was not false prophecy or heresy, but a new truth from God!

Jesus casting out demons! Exorcism
Mark 5:1-20 King James Version (KJV) 5 And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes. 2 And when he was come out of the ship,
immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, 3 Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could
bind him, no, not with chains: 4 Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains,
and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him. 5 And always, night and day, he was in the mountains,
and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself
6 But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him, 7 And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with
thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not. 8 For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit. 9 And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered,
saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.
10 And he besought him much that he would not send them
away out of the country. 11 Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd
of swine feeding. 12 And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the
swine, that we may enter into them. 13 And forthwith Jesus gave them leave.
And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.
The spirit world could not function until the appearance of Unification Church. Why? Because there was no handle to grab; no rapport was established. There was no love between the races. There was no one who could prepare the base so that God could really bring down His hosts of angels. But now the Unification Church represents that base, so God can bring down any number of angels or spirit men He wishes.
So far, there have been many, many evil spiritual phenomena. There are many evil, lost spirits haunting people.
Spirits can also actually cause diseases and accidents. What is the difference between evil spirits and good spirits?
When an evil spirit approaches, you somehow feel fearful and uncertain and very unstable. A satanic spirit is like the winter wind, making you shiver.
But when some good spirit is trying to embrace you, you feel so good without reason! You’ll be walking on Cloud 9!
A heavenly spirit is like spring. It melts you, relaxes you, and gives you the warmth of love and comfort.
You should feel that in the Unification Church.
I have been conducting the program of the spirit world 3rd Adam for everything. I do not talk about how heaven is or how heavenly father is, and so forth. I do not talk about them carelessly. I only talk about them after I have digested them with the truth and can explain them in some systematic manner.
Do you think that I simply listen to the words of some women or grandmothers, or some spiritual medium? No way. They are ignorant. They know how to testify to the present, but they do not know how things operate. /SMM (68-276)
Words by Sun Myung Moon
The three major aspects of our lives
1: Attitude towards God: vertical/first blessing/ foundation of faith (internal)
a: Prayer (internal) through sincere personal prayer life, earnest sharing/talking with God — Spiritual aspect
b: God’s words (external) always study God’s words and check own motivations- Intellectual aspect
2: Physical power: Unity between mind and body – horizontal/foundation of substance (external)
3: Sensitivity toward the mission: Substantial application of both internal as well as external ways in the unified fashion.
Cultivation sensitivity toward God’s love
Cultivating your heart into one with God’s heart
Absolute oneness with god in heart - Divine spirit
Perfection of love = relationships - perfect personality - Matthew 5:48
Personality of absolutely living for the sake of others

An electric bulb has a filament inside, and the more crooked it is the brighter light it will give; a straight filament will give only weak light.
A man who is sturdy in the love of God may look unattractive, but once the switch is on he will light up the entire world.
Light is the important thing.
When you become a divine spirit you no longer see the physical body; in spirit world the intensity of brightness of a person’s spirit will determine his attractiveness, not his external appearance.
The men who are pursuing God’s ideology and trying to obtain the true love of God are the noble men.
/SMM March 28, 1979
You learn in Divine Principle that we grow through stages. There is no ugliness in the perfection stage, and every divine spirit is a shining beauty.
You have a body and a mind.
Everything in the cosmos connects with that body and mind.
Spirit world contacts your mind and the physical world contacts your body, and a vertical line is formed in the center.
In the Orient there is a saying that a righteous person has a straight mind. It means that a person has a central vertical line where mind and body meet.
If such a person commits himself to something then he will fulfill it. Thought and action meet at that one line. /SMM November 14, 1999
Even when you go to the next world, you still have to deal with all those things you did wrong during your life…
You also have to supplement or add more to the life you are living now, moving towards the goals you have not yet accomplished in your path towards God — the path you are walking from the formation stage, through the growth and completion stages, towards God. One problem or task each day, one problem or task each year… you have to enact goodness in what you do, to make up for what you hadn’t accomplished.
That’s why no one can afford to have blockages, and why this path must be made flat and straight, like a freeway.
If you look at the history of restoration through indemnity, the Old Testament era is the world of the form spirit level, the New Testament era is the world of the life spirit level.
And that is how the spirit world is. Next, we have the world of the divine spirit level.
However, we need to remove all these things, all which has developed limited to the form of these kinds of stages. /SMM September 12, 2009
Since I am in a solemn position of having to fulfill the task I am called to do, which is to perfect that kingdom in accordance with the law,
I cannot do or think as I please.
I have come here today not thinking of myself as the founder of the Unification Church, the Messiah or the Lord at his second coming.
I should peel off the layers of indemnity.
The layers covering the world of form spirits, the Old Testament Age, must be uncovered and removed, as must the layers over the world of the life spirits, (the New Testament) and those covering the world of divine spirits.
You need to have the single-mindedness of the mother and father, of the son, of the husband and wife, of the children, of the siblings of your grandfather, of the siblings of your mother and father, and of your own siblings.
When all siblings achieve oneness, the unity of the four great realms of heart can begin.
There are four figures — one from the Old Testament Age, one from the New Testament Age, one from the Completed Testament Age, and one from the era of the realm of the heart of the fourth Adam.
The age of the right of inheritance has begun.
In this age, the prince and kingship of liberation and complete freedom that unites heaven and earth with the tens of thousands of religions in the realms of the form spirits, life spirits, divine spirits, and the resurrected world of the realm of heart can be extolled for eternity.
Please do not forget this.

The Registration of Divine Spirits
What is the Fall? It is to be separated from the word, the substance, and heart.
Therefore, you should first learn the word and live substantiating it.
In order to substantiate it, we should have a parental heart.
Only those who went through substantial actions for the resolution of aggrievement, for restoration through indemnity, can give blessings. It should not be only words. Then, you become a life spirit.
There are form spirits, life spirits, and divine spirits, in the spirit world. Then, what level are we in there? We are like divine spirits, and the course of restoration is to find our own position after being registered on that level.
Therefore, from now on, you should be registered.
That is why the Bible states: “Those who want to die will live, and those who want to live will die.”
Such a paradoxical theory can be logical. Only when you are willing to die, you shall live. For this, you must invest all of your life. By so doing, you should launder everything.
In other words, everything should be restored through indemnity.
Such a process is absolutely required.

Chart 1 Do not ever doubt that the heavenly Holy One will descend from Heaven in the east. If the east fails to recognize the Holy One, he will come to be known through newly educated western people.
If both east and west are unable to discern the Holy One who is to come, both east and west will be discarded and new humankind will emerge. What can we do?

Chart 5 Somewhere in the world you will find that man: he is the holy man. Look at the world justly. He will come (2000-2007 or 2024-2025) and unify the world.
Those who are blinded by the desire for gold cannot escape. Look at the secret message sent to South Korea; everything is hidden in that secret message. (Divine Perinciple!)

Chart 45 When the uneasy days (the last days) arrive, a misfortune of “seven killing” will invade. When these days arrive, follow the principles of the double bows and double Ul’s, i.e., the principle of the white cross.
You will find a way of surviving in that white cross. When you come across difficulties, find the white cross and unite with it. (True Parents!)
