The Future of Humankind Is Rooted in the Future of the Pacific Rim Region

Peace-loving leaders from the Pacific Rim region! Among the 6.5 billion people on the earth today, almost five billion are our neighbors, relatives, and brothers and sisters belonging to the Pacific Rim region. In other words, many of us share the same root as the sphere of the Mongolian peoples. There is nothing we cannot do if we receive the Marriage Blessing and pull together centering on God’s ideal for peace! The future of humanity is in our hands.

God’s providence has now spread from the North American continent and has blossomed as an island civilization, the Japanese archipelago, which is in a position similar to that previously held by the United Kingdom. It is now about to fulfill its destiny by coming to fruition on the Korean peninsula, the homeland of the True Parents who have emerged on the earth as the Savior of humanity and the returning Messiah.

The Korean peninsula, which stands in a similar position to that of Rome in Jesus’ time, is regarded as an area of conflict beyond the spheres of religions or politics which have the mission of resolving the world’s problems. From a geo-political point of view, the Korean peninsula emerged as an arena of most intense confrontation despite the ongoing work to secure world peace.

The principles of restoration through indemnity dictate that civilization must bear fruit in the Pacific Rim

region, centered on the Korean peninsula. Fortunately, during the Korean War, the UN forces, centering on the United States, were mobilized to the peninsula.

Yet, they did not recover the homeland and hometown of God’s desire as they should have according to God’s will, and they left the job half done. As a result, global conflict and strife emerged, which came to be called the Cold War. During this period, people were deprived of their possessions and displaced, leading them to search for God.

In order to make up for this through indemnity, I established the Universal Peace Federation (UPF) and then organized the Peace Kingdom Corps and Peace Kingdom Police Force, comprising the women on Heaven’s side who have received the Marriage Blessing, who love peace, and who are willing to serve and sacrifice for the work of the Universal Peace Federation.

I have taken the lead in educating those involved with these organizations. As the peace organizations that stand in the forefront for actualizing a world of peace centering on God, they will create the peaceful, ideal world that God desires.

You may not be aware of this, but I have been assisting the Six Party Talks now being held for the sake of resolving the nuclear crisis on the Korean peninsula and reconciling the democratic nations with the communist nations. I am presenting a solution based on the principles of peace and harmony rooted in the new “Way of the Heavenly Father.”

At such intense times, what exactly should be the role of America and the United Nations? Hawaii in the Pacific and Norfolk on the Atlantic bridge East and West, link North and South, and represent the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, and all the great oceans of the world. With the support and protection of the American continent, the Korean Peninsula should protect and defend the Pacific Rim region by bringing together all the island nations of the Pacific. I say this because the future of humankind lies in the preservation of the Pacific Rim region centering on Korea, Japan and the United States.

As I was well aware of Heaven’s plans for this area, I invested thirty-three of the prime years of my life based in the United States beginning in the early 1970s, for the sake of world peace. I first visited Hawaii and prayed at a critical moment when I was on my way to meet Kim Il Sung of North Korea in 1991 with the purpose of bringing an end to the cold war era.

On that victorious foundation, I have now returned to Korea and I am working to complete the providence of establishing God’s homeland and hometown. This year, in particular, a jubilee year in the providence, I was in Hawaii on the first stop of a visit to America.
