Sunday Sermon August 2023 - 38th Parallel v. 1.0 — de Paulis

• Korea was divided 1950-1953 • Mankind was divided at the Fall of Man

3:rd Israel 2:nd Israel Korea Christianity ”Only Spiritual Land” 1:st Israel

Therefore I - Jesus - tell you that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you (Israel) and given to a people (-Korea-) who will produce its fruit. /Math 21:43

The Archangel Gabriel will blow a sacred trumpet to wake the dead at the Last Judgement

Unified Korea has the shape of an Angel blowing a horn! 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17, “For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet of God; and the dead in Christ shall rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and thus we shall always be with the Lord.”

Each trigram symbolizes one of the four universal elements (from top left around clockwise):

Name Property Element Family relationship Ch’ien, the creative - strong - heaven - Father K’an, the precipice - dangerous - water - second Son K’un, the host - sacrificing - earth - Mother Li, connects - is brilliant - fire - second Daughter

In order to ensure that the world does not miss the opportunity for peace in the post-Cold War era, I founded the Federation for World Peace. Through this organization, I am taking the lead in the effort for world peace.

During my visit to North Korea, I was reunited with members of my family.

At the moment we met my heart was filled with joy, but also a sense of deep pain.

The pain was for my numerous fellow citizens who are still separated from their loved ones across the 38th parallel and are denied the opportunity to meet their families.

For those with loved ones who have already died, the pain of separation cannot be relieved for all eternity.

For their sake, we must redouble our efforts to erase the tragedy of national division and family separation as quickly as possible.

In my meeting with President Kim Il Sung, I requested that he work to bring about visits between members of families separated between North and South.

Korea – Holy Land of the Morning Calm

During the early 20th century, Pyongyang came to be known among missionaries as being the “Jerusalem of the East” due to its historical status as a stronghold of Christianity, namely Protestantism. /wikipedia

From this point of view, we can understand that Korea is a providential nation centered on God’s will.

We know that it is a principle of development that prior to the appearance of what is true, what is false appears. That is why the devil invaded Asia and ruled it for forty years.

Thus, the satanic forces brought Korean women aged from twelve to forty, those purity was most cherished, into sexual slavery with the intention of staining the national character of the Korean people.

The Inside the Belly Church

The meritorious deeds of the Chung Family were so great that God loved them and gave them His grace to the extent that when the children did not accept His will, the mission could be transferred to someone else.

The woman who took over her mission had loved and served Kim Soong-do, Mr. Chung’s grandmother, with all her heart and soul. She was Mrs. Heo Ho-bin.

This did, however, mean that the providence had to decline by one level.

The Inside the Belly Church

Mrs. Heo testified that she was not supposed to be the Lord’s wife; her mission was to give birth to the Lord. In other words, she said that the Lord would be born through her womb.

Hers was the mission of Mary. While Mrs. Kim had Eve’s mission, Mrs. Heo had Mary’s mission.

Revelation from Jesus

Since revelations were received through Mrs. Heo lo-bin’s belly, this group was called the “Inside the Belly” Church.

The group did not name itself that, it just became known by that name.

The group wanted to take over Mrs. Kim’s mission, so they prayed, fervently asking for God’s help. In those days, Jesus appeared to Mrs. Heo. Jesus started expressing his teachings to this couple. Jesus asked them to accept his will and endure all difficulties under any circumstance.

Revelation from Jesus

The Inside the Belly Church had to make thorough preparations to attend the Messiah.

It had to dissolve all the resentment and grudges Jesus accumulated during his lifetime. Next, they had to prepare everything so that the returning Lord could have the best life on earth.

The Messiah has to live a life that no one can help envying, a life better than that of a member of the British royal family. Is it true?

Revelation from Jesus

They were taught in detail how to make the Messiah’s clothes. They were told to make suitable clothes for Jesus to wear from his birth to the age of thirty-three.

They had to make many clothes, enough so that Jesus could change his clothes every three days – Korean traditional clothes at times and Western clothes at other times.

Revelation from Jesus

This providence was related to Eve’s mission. Because Mrs. Heo had inherited Mrs. Kim Seong-do’s mission, Mrs. Heo ‘s daughter was also prepared to meet the lord. There were even twelve disciples. It is very interesting to know that those preparations were being made.

Do you have any idea how often they had to bow? They usually bowed three thousand times a day. They sometimes bowed seven thousand times.

The completion of internal preparations

I had to struggle, unknown to anyone, to prepare for the course of restoration we have learned about in the Divine Principle.

I prepared the Divine Principle that I teach today while I was in my twenties. Look at the situation now! What I spoke about fifty years ago has been fully realized.

This is not something I am saying for the first time. In those days, the nation we now call Korea did not exist. How sad the situation was then!

True Father’s mother and older brother

You don’t know how much my mother loved me! Her mind was occupied by thoughts of me. She knew I was the only member in the Moon Family whom she could believe in.

She may have already known I would become a great man. She used to do whatever I asked her to do.

Therefore, our mother-son cooperation was perfect even though she did not know about restoration through indemnity.

True Father’s mother and older brother

Also, my older brother was absolutely cooperative with me. Thus, the foundation to indemnify Cain’s position was completely established.

There were numerous older and younger brothers throughout history, but my older brother understood that his younger brother was a historic person.

So he absolutely obeyed me in everything.

If I said, “This is right,” he thought so and believed in me 100 percent; he had no doubt at all.

True Father’s mother and older brother

Therefore, what about the restoration of Cain? Was it accomplished or not? It was completely established.

Moreover, was the mother-son cooperation completed or not? This was completed as well.

What would have happened if Christianity and Korea had welcomed me? (1945) I could have absorbed Protestant America over the course of seven years.

And if I had begun working on the world level after the seven-year course finished in 1952, I would have mobilized all the world’s statesmen by the time I was forty years old, leading them in one direction, toward the goal of making the kingdom of heaven on earth.

That was the original providential plan. Christianity has made a unified, global territory after four thousand years of Judeo-Christian history.

If Christianity had followed me, a unified physical and spiritual world would have come about.

The American military government’s mistake England, America and France had to return to the center of the unified physical and spiritual worlds.

The two son factions and the daughter faction (respectively), which had been fighting among themselves, had to return.

1945-52 From the world’s point of view, the eldest son on God’s side and the eldest son on Satan’s side should have become one and come to the returning lord’s country.

Why should they have come?

They should have come to inherit the seed.

The people who had inherited the false seed of wickedness should have obliterated it and come to the true country in order to inherit the heavenly world’s true life.

1946 Pyongyang 1st attempt

Moon taught that Korea was the second Israel and that the return of Jesus would take place in Korea. But, he said, the return would not happen in either the spiritual or supernatural way that Christians tended to expect. He said that, just as the mission of the Old Testament prophet Elijah passed in the time of Jesus to John the Baptist, so the mission of Jesus would pass to another.

1946 Pyongyang 1st attempt

Pyongyang in 1946 was still a dynamic center for Korean Christianity. Denominations which had been banned by the Japanese had re-established themselves. There were churches everywhere. Christians called the city the Jerusalem of the East. But the writing was on the wall, as the Soviet-backed authorities began breaking up Christian power.l

May 1948- May 1950 “Prison Witnessing”

Hungnam after US bombing raids (Imperial War Museum, London) “Weren’t you hurt?” Pak asked Moon after it was over. Moon had been working in the area where empty sacks were stored when the bombing began.

“God said that no one would be hurt within a twelve-meter radius of me.

While the bombing was going on, I was praying and communicating with the saints in the spiritual world,” Moon replied. Pak, elated that they had both survived, began singing the ‘Garden of Restoration’ song. /The Early Years, 1920-53 - Michael Breen

• West Coast: Female group - Inside Belly Church “The new Lord is twenty-six and you must serve him well, as you have served me,” Jesus said.”

• East Coast: Male group - One of the messages Jesus gave Mr. Paek’s group was that they should connect with a women’s Christian spiritual group on the west coast.

Clouds forming the face of Jesus over Korea 1950

On a bombing raid to North Korea during the Korean War, one of the American B-29 bomber pilots saw a dazzling white light in the sky.

Even though the pilot could see no details in the brightness, he took a photograph.

Jesus Christ has appeared at significant times throughout the 2000 years of Christianity.

Introduction

• Korea was divided 1950-1953 • Mankind was divided at the Fall of Man

Master God of evil Satan Satan’s identity

Good- Original Evil ness mind mind Evil Explanation of human fall

This explanation of the human Fall will clarify these issues.

The Fall of the Angel and the Fall of Human Beings

Angel’s sin Human sin

Illicit Illicit + = Sexual sexual parts sexual relationship relationship

Jude 6-7 Gen. 3:7 Hence, we can deduce that the illicit sexual relationship must have occurred between the angel and human beings.

The Spiritual Fall and the Physical Fall Spiritual fall Spirit self

Physical self Physical fall The fall which took place through the sexual relationship between the angel and Eve was the spiritual fall, while the fall which occurred through the sexual relationship between Eve and Adam was the physical fall.

Satan’s Activities in Human Society

Evil Satan Spirits Spirit self ___________________________________________________

Physical self

Evil person on earth Satan’s object partners are evil spirits in the spirit world. The object partners to these evil spirits are the spirit selves of evil people on the earth, and the vehicles through which these evil spirit selves act are their physical selves (p. 69).

If you are doing as your body wishes, it is connected to hell.

On the other hand, if you do as your mind wants, it is connected to the Kingdom of God.

In this sense, the boundary line between the Kingdom of God and hell is yourself.

Just as Korea is divided north and south by the 38th parallel, satan divides and occupies you. By dividing, satan occupies.

Thus, in order to separate from satan, the left foot should be moved to the south. It is simple. Because of satan’s tactic, every existing being is divided between good and evil.

If one were to die without separating good from evil, the 38th parallel of the individual could not be overcome. Then, one could not enter the spiritual world.

The 38th parallel of the family and country could not be overcome. Then, how could we go over the 38th parallel of the world and universe?

It would be impossible.

Suppose there is a dying person who says, “The Principle of the Unification Church is certainly good. I can go to the Kingdom of God. Although I did not fulfill True Father’s words completely, my mind was really trying to fulfill them.

So please regard me as having established the proper indemnity conditions!” Then God will try to put him into the Kingdom of God because God is fair. (laughter)

Where did God try to put him? Because the person tried to go to the Kingdom of God, God put him where he wanted to be. Do you understand? God rewarded him according to his actions.

God put him where he tried to go. However, one cannot go everywhere one wishes. Because one receives his reward according to his actions on earth, his destination can be beneath paradise or even in hell.

Even people in hell want to go to the Kingdom of God. Such horrible things are happening every second, minute, and hour, but you don’t feel it substantially. This is the human situation.

The Kingdom Of God On Earth And In Heaven

In order for the individual to rest, the resting realm of the family has to be established. That is, the fence on the family level has to be made. Isn’t that so? In order for the family to rest, the fence on the tribal level has to be made. If there is no fence, the family or tribe will always be invaded.

Then, in order for the people (tribe) to rest, the fence on the national level has to be made.

In order for the nation to rest, the fence on the world level has to be established. In this sense, only after establishing the worldwide fence, can the nation rest. In order for the world to rest, the fence of unification between the spiritual world and physical world has to be established.

After that, the Kingdom of God on earth can be realized, which God’s love can spread all over the world.

Through that process, the Kingdom of God on earth is established automatically. Do you follow? [Yes]

Three elements are needed to establish a country: first is sovereignty, second is people, and third is land. Did this world become the place that God rules over? [No!] Did all the earth become God’s country? Did the world become God’s nation of people? Though you talk about the Kingdom of God, God’s nation cannot be established until the world is united into one.

Because world unity is not yet established, and Cain and Abel still remain, the history of struggle continues.

Therefore, we cannot rest in this situation. We don’t want to live in the process of restoration, but in the Kingdom of God.
