Book sharing Mary Magdalene
From very first translation of Wolli Wonbon written by True Father 1951-52
Specifically, God’s Will required that Jesus set up Judas’s wife as the new Eve. This woman was Mary Magdalene. She had been Judas’ lover, but now as a disciple she was absolutely obedient to Jesus. So, just as Satan had taken Eve from Adam, Jesus [as Adam] planned to take Judas’s woman to be the new Eve. That way the three of them would fulfill God’s will according to the Principle.
Jesus & Christmas From SMM DB
1. *”Christmas in Heart” (December 25, 1973)*: “Today, as you know very well, the whole world is celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ. My topic for Christmas is ‘Christmas in Heart.’ Jesus Christ came to the earth to save the world as the Messiah…
Because of the fall of man, God’s ideal was not realized. Therefore, ever since the fall of man, the work of God has been the work of restoration.”
- This speech emphasizes the significance of Jesus’ birth in the context of God’s providential work.
2. *”God’s Will and Christmas” (December 25, 1976)*: “It is most important in celebrating this day of Christmas to know the purpose of the coming of Jesus Christ 2000 years ago. Without knowing that purpose clearly, this celebration is meaningless… God’s first task is to prepare the foundation on the individual level by working through central individuals.”
- This addresses the need for understanding the Divine purpose behind the celebration of Christmas.
As you know from the Principle of Creation, the perfection of Adam would not only have been the perfection of an individual but would have brought the perfection of the family.
That would have expanded into the perfection of the clan, society, nation and the world. Therefore, one man of perfection could have brought world perfection. Then there would be only one ism necessary for all mankind — Adamism.
Under Adamism the individual would prosper, the family would prosper, and the society, nation and world would prosper.
3. *”The True Meaning of Christmas” (December 25, 1979)*:
“What is the true meaning of Christmas and why do we celebrate? It is not done for America’s sake or for the sake of the world.
The central issue of this day is what kind of Christmas Jesus would have wanted.…
This year’s Christmas is different from all the other Christmases you celebrated in the past because you know its true meaning.”
- This speech reflects on the deeper spiritual significance of Christmas. (Removal of Original Sin – Creation of KoH)
The first person truly to celebrate should have been God Himself, who caused His son to be born.
Furthermore, the angels and all spirit world joined together, glorifying and praising that great day.
Here on earth, however, Jesus’ birth was only quietly welcomed because few people knew of his coming.
God wanted to see all the great priests of the day gather to hold the holy child.
If Jesus had been recognized from the moment of his birth as the son of God and the long awaited Messiah, then all the chiefs of the twelve tribes would have competed to serve him as he was growing.
Then when he was 21 he could have exercised the authority of the Messiah, and because the people would have been so busy serving him he never would have an idle moment.
4. Christmas In View Of The Will Of God Sun Myung Moon December 25, 1980
“This is the day we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. As you know, the original will of God did not include the human fall.
Therefore, Christmas itself came about as a result of the fall. Christmas is the day when people should see the hope of recovering everything lost through the fall.
We are riding the dispensational locomotive. Along our route there is water covering the tracks and we can’t see the rail on either side. If you know there is a rail underneath then you will hang on and hold your breath.
I am doing everything to speed up the dispensation. You may hate the water, but don’t let go of me. You may think the locomotive pulling you is not good enough because it is made in Korea, not America.
The best locomotive made in the world is Reverend Moon.
Even God is fascinated and wants to get behind the throttle Himself.
This elaborates on how Christmas serves as a reminder of the restoration needed after the fall of humanity.
Mankind lost the world, the nation, the society, the family and even the individual who was one with God.”
It is absolutely wrong for Unification Church members to think that we have nothing to do with Christianity.
Why is that so?
The Old Testament Age and New Testament Age existed in order to restore True Parents.
Quote DP 1973 Did his sacrifice on the cross then come to naught?
Not at all (John 3:16). If it had, Christian history could not have existed.
We can never deny the magnitude of the grace of redemption by the cross.
Therefore, it is true that our faith in the cross can bring about redemption.
It is equally true that redemption by the cross has been unable to remove our original sin and restore us as men of the original nature who cannot commit sin; thus, it has been unable to establish the Kingdom of Heaven on earth. /DP73 page 142
The return of Christ must produce something more then just collecting all good faithful Christians.
He and she must produce Sinless offspring… and give birth to a New Mankind through forgivenses of Original Sin!
Ask any Christian, the question WHEN WHERE and HOW! will Christ will return!
And they will most propably all answer Jesus will come back on the skies to gather all faithful Christians.
Most believe in Jerusalem.
Its like simple spiritual logic… Jesus goes in the front… 2000 year of Christians FOLLOWS behind… What Jesus did and did not …the Christians must follow Jesus never married, never produced sinless children. Grandchildren…
A life in celiacy became more valuable!
A world still under satanic spiritual influence.
Thats why no Christian however devote can pass that spiritual level of Jesus life… For 2000 years not producing one sinless seed!
- Jesus sperm literally DIED together with his physical body on the Cross and with it the hopefull future sinless lineage of Mankind!
2000 years of suffering in a fallen world…”take up your Cross”!

Jesus and SMM Testimonies 1980s
A voice spoke and all around me the atmosphere rumbled with the sound. It was like the voice of God and it said,
“This is Jesus, the Christ.”
Another man dressed in Oriental garb appeared beside Jesus — it was Father (SunMyungMoon).
They then became one and Father went inside of Jesus, and Jesus’ face became magnificently radiant as he continued to walk toward me.
He took both of my hands in his, and I felt tears running down my cheeks.
Satan appeared in the dream, accusing me of my past sins.
Jesus only became more compassionate.
I spoke, saying, “I have waited all of my life to meet Jesus.”
Jesus spoke to me from his mind, “I understand.”

The Bible contains clear answers: The Second Coming
Not 1st Israel, but among a Christian nation; 2nd Israel …given to a nation producing the fruits of it.” - Math. 21:43
Born as New Adam …woman gave birth to a son, who would rule all the nations with an iron rod (Truth). - Rev 12:5
And the Messianic Mission as a New Holy Adam-Eve mission True Parents!
Not just one new Adam (like 2000 year Christianity tought) Christianity is of course not totally wrong; how could it be!
But Jesus never got the national support he needed for Marriage The Re-Creation of a Divine Couple – a Holy Family
Jesus have been present as the Spiritual Christ in his tranformed Spiritual body during 2000 year of Chistianity.
Forgiving sins yes – but still the Original Sin-Root remains.
No Christian can or will deny that fact. All christian children are being born with Original sin generation after generation after … without exception, needing new repeated redemption through Jesus!
Why is that?
I understand it so that Logos is both masculin and Feminin – Gods image. As male and female He created them; in His image.
Since Jesus did not achieve perfection together with a bride, he was only able to enter Paradise the second level, of the three spiritual development steps. – Creation of New Holy Adam & Eve unfulfilled.

Three Wise Men
The notion that Jesus had a biological father no longer belongs in the contemplative realm — where many would prefer it remain. It has crash landed with a resounding thud, and is narrowed down to one distinct individual.
But knowing that Zacharias was the father of Jesus is much more than just another interesting tidbit of information.
The Virgin And The Priest The Making Of The Messiah Mark Gibbs 2008
“As a priest who “walks blameless in the Lord,” Zacharias was recognized as God’s representative in the conception of his children. From the instant Mary’s impending pregnancy was announced, to the moment it was acknowledged, the only man mentioned by name in the narrative was Zacharias.
On the evidence of Luke’s gospel, Zacharias is the sole candidate to be the father of Jesus.”
Who was Jesus’ father? It is the same as Cain and Abel - one father had two descendants. When Mary conceived, it was in Zachariah’s home, where she stayed for six weeks.
Who is Jesus’ father? (Zachariah.) I don’t know!
You know well. You said it, not me. (Laughter.) Now is the time for everything to be revealed, there is nothing hidden.
We come to know the truth, it is consistent and natural in every way. That is God’s law, it is simple. /SMM 1992
At the time of Jesus, the law was such that if any unmarried woman were to become pregnant she was supposed to be stoned to death.
In such a strict society, how could Jesus even think about demanding a younger sister to become his own bride?
Let us imagine ourselves in that time when the younger sister Mary actually took away Elizabeth’s husband and became pregnant. Then she gave birth to Jesus.
As Jesus grew up he was requesting to marry the younger sister from Elizabeth’s family. Can you imagine that?
It was virtually impossible, because if it had become known to the general public then the families of Zachariah and Jesus would have been destroyed.

“…no matter how devout a believer may be, he/she cannot attain physical salvation through redemption by the cross of Jesus.
His/her original sin, which has been passed down through the lineage from Adam, is not eliminated at its root, and will not be until Jesus returns again to complete the work of salvation both spiritually and physically” (DP, pp. 118-19).
Hardship itself isn’t a bad thing. The cross you carry isn’t bad.
The true path of the cross will lead you to the true path of love. Parents walk willingly the path of the cross for they love
their children. Isn’t this right? So, the true path of the cross will lead you to the true path of love.

Jesus Testifying in our time
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. Even today (2001), although he is over 80 years old, he is fighting on the frontline.

What SunMyungMoon LSA & TM added
Jesus came for Holy Marriage Zacharias was the father of Jesus The perfection of Adam would have brought the perfection of the family. That would have expanded into the perfection of the clan, society, nation and the world.
True Parents are now bringing Spiritual & Physical Salvation = a new blood lineage; permament removal of Original Sin.
We celebrate every spring their Holy Marriage 1960! Let us keep the CheonShimWon and HDH tradition.
