FFWPU USA: CARP NJ Workshop On The Core Content Of The Divine Principle
2022-06-03 · Source: tparents.org
Some 46 young Unificationists and guests recently enjoyed an inspiring weekend retreat in the Northeast. The CARP New Jersey chapter held a workshop at the Clifton Family Church on May 20, which focused on the core content of the Divine Principle.
“For some of the participants, this was their first time hearing the content,” said the chapter’s Director, Shogo, who was among four CARP leaders who gave presentations. “The participants were able to understand the depiction of God in the Divine Principle and learn more about it.”
The retreat, which also included 17 members of GPA, aimed to foster a culture of love and gratitude, with several small group activities that enabled bonding and one-on-one interaction. There were various games, including rock-paper-scissors, which allowed participants to step out of their comfort zone. Leaders also facilitated discussions and helped create an atmosphere where everyone felt heard and supported.
One participant, a freshman from the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT), shared he was touched by CARP and its practice of service and care for others. A testimony from the CARP president of the Princeton chapter inspired participants to build more relationships and expand the CARP network as well.
“Through the education, discussions, meaningful activities and delicious meals, we had a beautiful and unforgettable retreat experience felt by everyone,” said Shogo. “Our GPA participants also contributed greatly to this.”
He said CARP New Jersey looks forward to deepening relationships among members by engaging them with more Divine Principle study sessions. The chapters at Montclair State University and NJIT have already shown great promise.
CARP was launched in 1966 by True Parents to raise and engage young leaders in thoughtful and meaningful discussion through its varied programs, events, and activities designed to cultivate deep, long- lasting relationships for growth and peace.
Nationally, CARP leaders aim to extend the organization’s presence to 1,200 campuses with 30,000 members by 2027. Currently found on more than 30 campuses nationwide, CARP saw 11 leaders graduate across the country in the Class of 2022. Leaders said Divine Principle retreats continue to be a staple in building CARP’s membership and nurturing individual and team relationships.

• Preface PREFACE
Introduction The text which you hold in your hands contains the Divine Principle, Chapter 1 I The the teaching of the Reverend Sun Myung Moon. The earliest Principle of manuscript of the Divine Principle was lost in North Korea during Creation the Korean War. Upon arriving as a refugee in Pusan, Reverend Chapter 2 I The Moon wrote and dictated a manuscript called Wolli Wonbon Human Fall
(Original Text of the Divine Principle). He then guided Hyo Won Eu, Chapter 3 I
Eschatology the first president of the Unification Church of Korea, to prepare
Chapter 4 I The more systematic presentations of his teaching with biblical,
Messiah: His historical and scientific illustrations. Reverend Moon gave President Advent and the Eu special instruction regarding the content of these texts and then Purpose of His checked them over meticulously. These efforts resulted in Wolli Second Coming
Hesul (Explanation of the Divine Principle) published in 1957 and Chapter 51
Resurrection Wolli Kangron (Exposition of the Divine Principle) published in 1966.
Chapter 6 I For the past thirty years, Wolli Kangron has been the text of
Predestination Reverend Moon’s basic teaching .
Chapter 7 I Exposition of the Divine Principle is the new authorized English Christology translation of Wolli Kangron. The first English translation, The Divine Introduction to Principle, was made in 1973 by Dr. Won Pok Choi. Dr. Choi labored Restoration
with considerable erudition to select the proper terminology and Chapter 1 I The

Through this for Restoration work, she laid the foundation for the teaching of the Divine Principle Chapter 2 I in the Western world. In recognition of Dr. Choi’s pioneering work, Moses and Jesus when Reverend Moon commissioned this new translation he in the Providence
of Restoration requested that the translators seek out her advice. She gave
Chapter 3 I The constructive guidance and played an active role in improving the
Periods in translation. In a real sense, her hands have guided this project. Providential For this version, the translators have sought, above all, to accurately History and the

Chapter 4 I The generation, employs long and complicated sentences with Parallels between numerous embedded clauses expressing complex relationships. It the Two Ages in is simply not possible to express every nuance in the compact, the Providence of
Restoration linear structure of modern English. Whereas modern English wants

Wherever a literal the Second translation would not adequately express the thought and Advent of the argumentation of the text, we have rearranged the order of thought Messiah
in a manner more suitable to the Western mind. At times we used Chapter 6 I The
Second Advent creative phraseology rather than dictionary definitions to evoke
comparable understandings, feelings and cultural associations.
Furthermore, the Divine Principle employs some technical
terminology and gives distinctive meanings to certain common
words. Wherever possible, for this translation, we drew from
common English vocabulary rather than invent new theological
terms. Hence, ordinary words may be invested with distinctive
meanings, for example: “indemnity,” “condition” and “foundation.”
Proper understanding requires attention to their particular usage in
The time and cultural context of this book was another issue for the
translators. It was written in the 1960s, when communism was still
a worldwide menace and Christianity was still confident of its
cultural superiority and continuing expansion. Although these and
other conditions of the time may have changed in the intervening
decades, we have preserved the original perspective of the text.
God’s providence continues to advance precisely as explained in the
Divine Principle.
In one sense, this new version seeks to accomplish more than a
conventional translation. In the 1960s, when Korea was still
recovering from the ravages of the Korean War, there was a paucity
of historical and scientific texts available for study. This hindered
President Eu in his efforts to accurately frame the scientific and
historical examples which he employed to illustrate the operation of
the Divine Principle in nature and in history. As authorized by
Reverend Moon, and with Dr. Choi’s guidance, the translators drew
upon the knowledge of scholars in various fields and made minimal,
necessary changes in certain scientific, historical and biblical
illustrations. Nevertheless, throughout the translation, we adhered
strictly to Reverend Moon’s wishes that the integrity and purity of
the text be maintained. Finally, the new translation has been
carefully and extensively reviewed by church elders Rev. Young Whi
Kim and Rev. Chung Hwan Kwak and has received their blessing.
In the deluxe color coded edition, the colors are based upon the
39th Korean edition of Wolli Kangron with colors prepared by Mrs.
Gil Ja Sa Eu. The main ideas are shaded red, topics of second rank
are shaded blue, and topics of third rank are shaded yellow. The
reader can grasp the main thread of the teaching of the Divine
Principle in a short time by reading only the red text. Reading the
red and blue text together provides a richer framework; reading all
three colors together gives a rather full exposition including many
examples. To get the fullest meaning, the text must be studied in its
entirety. Yet even when reading the full text, attention to the
passages in red can help to clarify the thread of the argument.
Exposition of the Divine Principle expresses a truth which is
universal. It inherits and builds upon the core truths which God
revealed through the Jewish and Christian scriptures and
encompasses the profound wisdom of the Orient. Through this
translation, we hope the deep message of the Divine Principle may
