The Mystery of Jesus' Mission in the East

I would like to use the historical example of the Israelites 2000 years ago; but first let’s go back even further to 577 BCE in ancient Tibet. This was the year Siddhartha Gautama was born who later became the Buddha. Even though he was not in the Judeo-Christian tradition of faith, Buddha was very advanced spiritually for his time as a person who taught the philosophy of taking personal responsibility for enlightenment by becoming one’s true self of love, peace and altruism. While Buddha was building his following in Tibet and later India, God was using another group of people dominated by the Roman Empire. The Israelites had been nurtured and prepared, as the Old Testament explains from the time of “The Prophets” to be the landing site for the coming Messiah.
Creating the conditions to receive Jesus was the focus of God’s providence at that time but God was preparing not just the Israelite people. If the Israelites were prepared to receive the Messiah, is it possible that Buddha and his teaching were prepared to educate the future nation of God once Jesus had been excepted by the Jews? Wouldn’t God have prepared a long-range plan for the Chosen People after their acceptance of Jesus. The possibility that the Israelite’s future course could have been East of the Roman Empire in Tibet is a logical next step. If Jesus would have lived and died a natural death, he still would not have had the time on earth or organization necessary to educate the Jewish people in the three generations at minimum that it would have taken. The Jewish people were not prepared to build a nation of peace based on their Old Testament view of the world; ex. “an eye for an eye.“ It would have been left up to Jesus’ disciples to find a way for them to transition from a captive people mentality and their 4000-
year-old culture to a new social and political order based on true love from a Heavenly Parent relationship as they grew and expanded Eastward.
God’s plan was for the victorious Jewish movement now inspired by the teachings of Jesus to move East and be influenced by the Buddha’s teachings probability after being persecuted and pushed out of the Roman Empire. Why? Because God’s plan for the success of the Jewish Providence, like the prophesies before them, had to go through three stages of growth to be completed. For the Jewish people to become the model for a world family and a world of peace, they had to shed their wilderness and exclusive mentality that had allowed them to survive to that point; it would have been replaced by a unifying world embracing heart. Thus, standing on Jesus’ victorious foundation was only the first stage in a three-stage process in God’s plan.
It is reasonable to conclude that to build a God-centered Kingdom it would take more people and more education to challenge the World established power of Rome. This was logical considering the gigantic task of expanding the kingdom worldwide; a job too big for one people. So, the providence of God moving East would have gained momentum with the addition of diverse people and the next level of spiritual education. Also, God would not have wanted to limit the salvation He had prepared to only encompass the Jewish way of life. Consequently, what better way to multiply His blessing then to prepare different races and nations with different missions for the building of a new God centered society.
This is all speculation based on Father Moon’s words that a victorious Jesus would have spread Christianity Eastward instead of West into Europe and Africa. Therefore, I will speculate on what the possible third step would have been.
