Father! According to the words you have commanded us, we have come to know that there remains a peak which all people must go over. Today we are in the position of having to fight to get rid of our imperfect natures in the presence of your perfect nature, and there remains before us the fate of having to pass the basic standard of unchanging truth.
Now the time has come when we must show ourselves to the entire universe.
When we think that a historical destiny remains, and it will not do unless we take dominion over the things of creation while resembling the holy majesty of our perfect father, we come to realize that the “I” who exists today must become a person who will represent the lamentations of our eternal father, and the “I” who exists today must become a person who will testify to the love of our eternal father, and the “I” who exists today must be able to fulfill the mission of restoration by conveying your words to the dark world.
But our life of faith that we have lived until today has not been a life we can show to you; therefore, please allow us to come to our senses on our own and to be able to repent while we feel regret on our own.
Now we must place all the ideas, opinions, and ideologies we have, before the Will of our sacred Father and do away completely with the being called “I” and we must resemble the character of our perfect Father by restoring our original selves which are eternal beings, and since there remains the course of the battle to restore ourselves which can be immersed in your glom, please do not allow us to become people who backslide along the course of today's battle.
We earnestly hope and desire, Father, that you will allow us to become beautiful sons and daughters who are appropriate for you to choose and who can become your joy and your glory day by day in our daily lives and throughout our entire lives.
This time is a time that reflects the ages of restoration, and it is an age when we have to pass the standard of historical judgment just as at the time of Jesus long ago.
This is a time when the acts of John the Baptist who baptized people and the acts of the testimonies on the bank of the River Jordan when he presented the new Will to the Jewish religion, are happening throughout the world. When we think about this, we realize that the mission of John the Baptist remains a mission for those of us who have come after him.
Now it will not do unless each of us builds the garden of rest where we can sing songs hand in hand with united hearts, in that one garden of goodness where Jesus Christ should have been able to return glory to you without Satan or sin being able to invade, while John the Baptist testified, and each of us has a foundation of the resting place of heavenly morality.
Since you have called us today for the sake of this kind of responsibility, and you have chosen us today for the sake of this kind of work, please do not allow us to become sons and daughters who leave anguish and sorrow in front of the Will you have chosen.
Since we, who know that history is permeated with the indignation of thousands of years due to the failure of John the Baptist, have now been called by heaven and have been decided by heaven, please allow us to be able to come before your throne and make a foundation for the providence that will fulfill the Will of the total providence of the entire universe. Then please allow us to be able to complete the mission which remains on that perfect foundation.
And while earnestly hoping that you will allow us to become sons and daughters who can sing a song of the glory of rejoicing in the garden of joy, and who can sing a song of the glory of victory's hosannas to the entire universe, and who can return glory to the Lord who is coming.
We have prayed all these things in the name of the Lord. Amen.
