Organizations for World Peace

The Inter-Religious Federation for World Peace, the Women's Federation for World Peace, the Federation for World Peace, the World Media Association, and the Professors World Peace Academy are all oriented toward the work for peace.

The peace of which we speak is based on Godism. It is a Headwing thought. The family exists for world peace. The individual also exists for world peace. Nothing should be self-centered. Everything should exist in peace. People who do not have this view, who are individualistic or who are partial to only their family or nation, will never prosper.

Therefore, when you eat, you should eat for world peace; when you drink water, you should drink for world peace; and even when you breathe, you should breathe for world peace. You should love for world peace, and you should work for world peace. That is how you should think.

If you fail to keep up, you will become like fallen leaves blown by the autumn wind. If you are only leaves, you will never be able to become branches; yet you need to become branches. To become branches, you need my teachings on peace. So when you speak, do it for world peace; when you smell, do it for world peace. Make that the aim of all your five senses. (252-301, 1994.01.01)

Establishing organizations that will work for world peace

2. To prepare a realm where the environment is centered on true love, God built up a worldwide foundation centered on True Parents, who are the embodiments of true love and true family.

This is the background and starting point for the formation, organization, and expansion of each of the following organizations: the International Conference on the Unity of the Sciences and the Professors World Peace Academy, which I founded to seek absolute values together with world experts; the World Media Association to pursue freedom of speech and ethical responsibility; the Inter-Religious Federation for World Peace to seek reconciliation and unity among all religions; the Federation for World Peace to find the way to world peace; the Women's Federation for World Peace to realize an ideal society with the participation of women; the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification to substantiate the ideal of true families and expand that ideal worldwide; and the Youth Federation for World Peace to lead a new culture of youth in the twenty-first century. (271-149, 1995.08.27)

3. What have I gained personally by creating organizations for world peace such as the Professors World Peace Academy? I have carried out such work until now, investing our financial resources around the world. I have hosted the International Conference on the Unity of the Sciences (ICUS). Even so, I have not been well received by scholars. Still, I continue to serve them quietly.

The reason I have been sacrificing myself for the world of academia is to enable them to collaborate. In this way, I have created a means for the sharing of scientific knowledge.

Scholars are people who think they are the best simply because they know a little more than others in their field of expertise. However, in the academic circles of the world, there are now some scholars who recognize the greatness of my contributions.

Therefore, they cannot ignore me. The same is also true of the media. What am I trying to do by establishing media? I am not trying to seize power or become the president.

The reason I went to the United States and am I engaging in this kind of work is to save the United States and the world. That is also the reason I have been carrying out this work in the academic world. (203-121, 1990.06.23)

4. The Citizens' Federation for the Reunification of Korea does not prioritize only Korea. It exists in Asia. Not only that, it is also to pave a worldwide foundation to link and connect all peoples of the world. As a representative of the world, it is leading the movement to bring together the peoples of Korea and Asia.

The National Federation of University Professors and Students to Advance the Unification of South and North Korea was also founded for the unification of North and South Korea. In Japan, I inaugurated the Federation of Professors and Students for the Unification of East, West, South, and North. Japan is not divided into North and South.

However, its mission is to resolve the worldwide problem of the disparity in wealth between South and North as well as the ideological conflict between East and West. This movement has already begun in Japan. (166-120, 1987.05.30)

5. To unite heaven and earth, I am now declaring the liberation of the religious realm. By doing so, I am declaring the arrival of the Completed Testament Age on earth centering on the love of True Parents. It will be the age when all humankind can find a peaceful settlement on earth. The words “peaceful settlement” are frightening.

The Completed Testament Age is the time to begin the fulfillment of the ideal of creation worldwide, not merely on the family level. Adam was unable to succeed on the family level, and Jesus was unable to succeed on the national level. Yet, I completed this course on the world level.

It was a path that would have been lost had I not been successful and left behind a tradition that can be praised for all eternity. The realm of True Parents' victory is established on the foundation of that peaceful settlement. (266-256, 1995.01.01)

6. The time has come when humankind no longer needs religion. The Era of the Holy Spirit Association for the Unification of World Christianity has passed. That is why I proclaimed the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification. The unfallen, original family in Eden needs to be actualized.

That is where Adam and Eve unite in absolute faith and attain oneness with God in an unbreakable parent-child relationship. Adam and Eve are liberated and freed when they can stand against any evil in the world that tries to seduce them or lead them to fall. This is the responsibility that fallen human beings are destined to fulfill. (266-256, 1995.01.01)

7. As a counterpart to the United Nations, which represents the body, I established the Federation for World Peace, which can guide the world to peace as the representative of the mind.

The League of Nations after the First World War and the United Nations after the Second World War sought to bring about peace, but neither of them has been able to do so. Why? The political leaders of the advanced nations stood in a position to lead the other nations, and thus the body came to stand in a position to direct the mind.

The Federation for World Peace that I have initiated at this time, however, will be led by religious leaders. Religions have a history going back thousands of years.

The leaders of these world religions need to pool their power and lead the political world. As the mind needs to lead the body, I am trying to set up such a system of governance. That is why I initiated the Federation for World Peace, to establish a standard for peace for the external political world. (209-261, 1990.11.30)

8. The Women's Federation for World Peace should put down deep roots in the field of education and family ethics. If it cannot do this, the world will not grasp the Will of God. In that case, the world will have no peace, and nations will have no prosperity.

That is why, to lay this foundation, I am going to work on recovering the family, even my own. The Women's Federation for World Peace is to become the Family Party for World Peace. The Family Federation for World Peace will also become a part of the Family Party.

However, in this word I am using the Chinese character dang (it), meaning “home.” In the political world, where they fight and struggle, they use a different Chinese character dang (H), which means “group” or “party.”

Yet, we cannot change the world and set the standard of peace by fighting. That is why all my life I have continually allowed myself to be struck first and then worked to reclaim what was taken. (232-200, 1992.07.06)

9. All religions need to unite. Until now, in the democratic world, religions have generally remained apart from politics. However, the religious realm needs to play a leading role in politics going forward, just as the mind guides the body.

Recognizing that the invisible mind is equipped with infinite power, the religious realm ought to create a movement where they collaborate to lead global affairs. That is why I founded the Inter-Religious Federation for World Peace and founded the Federation for World Peace as its counterpart.

Ever since the Fall, mind and body have been divided. Their struggle has manifested as conflict throughout history. Such conflict must end with the progress of the providence, so that the free world and communist world, the right wing and the left wing, can be brought into the Will of God.

The right-wing failed to fulfill its responsibility. It allowed atheist communism to completely dominate theism. As a result, the world is moving toward an era when humanistic ideologies that estrange people from God are re-emerging. How can we stop this? We need to create an alliance of religions. (205-270, 1990.10.01)

10. I have cultivated relationships with many prominent figures worldwide, and with them, we are establishing the Federation for World Peace. This is to unite the divided body and mind as one. Without uniting religion and this external world, the world of peace can never come.

I also have an organization that works with scholars. It is an influential organization in more than one hundred nations. Furthermore, I have media organizations to bring the world of the media together. More than that, I am holding summit conferences, bringing together top leaders from all over the world. In the field of thought as well, I have climbed to the top.

I have climbed to the highest plateau. I am even working at the cutting edge of science and technology. Furthermore, I am leading a machine company with the most advanced German technology and an electronics company with the most advanced Japanese technology.

Next, I am trying to build a comparable foundation in the financial sector. Soon the United States will become the country with the largest debt in the world and the value of the dollar will plummet, giving way to a global economic crisis. I began seeking a solution to that already eight years ago. In all these arenas, I am playing a key role globally. (210-150, 1990.12.18)

11. In the United States I established a lawyers' association. Why did I do this? Violations of human rights are still serious in the Soviet Union, China, and North Korea.

I came to think that to spearhead world salvation and lead all people to peace, I needed to set up a legal organization. That is why I created the Lawyers Association. (125-304, 1983.03.29)

12. The path we must take is to recover a nation, so we must operate from an international base. It would be well if the United Nations were behind us in the work to bring nations back to God.

However, since the United Nations did not listen to me, I established the Federation of Island Nations. It is a forerunner of the Abel UN to come. So are the Federation of Peninsular Nations and the Federation of Continental Nations, which I created soon afterward. (282-185, 1997.03.12)

13. Now is the age to restore the kingship. For this, I established the Federation of Island Nations, the Federation of Peninsular Nations, and the Federation of Continental Nations. We could let the North American continent go and instead tie Asia and South America together as Cain and Abel.

Such a time is arriving. Having gone beyond the providential timetable of national-level settlement, we are moving toward the world. Once the world finds its center, it will turn 360 degrees. God, at the center, has the authority to freely choose for His purpose any nation anywhere on the 360 degrees of the compass.
(283-038, 1997.04.08)

14. By creating the Federation of Island Nations, the Federation of Peninsular Nations, and the Federation of Continental Nations, I laid the foundation upon which a new United Nations could be established.

Within met we need to incorporate four major bodies, focused on religious leaders, women, youth leaders, and students. Body and mind have been divided ever since Adam's family, but now the realm of the firstborn son and that of the second-born son, representing body and mind respectively, must become one.

Thus, although the United Nations has not yet served the coming Lord, if it institutes and celebrates True Parents' Day, True Children's Day, and the Day of All True Things, all heaven and earth will be united. (293-163, 1998.05.26)

Ambassadors for peace and anointed representatives (boonbongwang)

15. Ambassadors for peace are ambassadors for the heavenly kingdom. You need to know that they are the ambassadors who will clean up Satan's world. That is why I am placing them in the position of the firstborn son representing True Parents.

They are to become the flag-bearers in the era of the settlement of God's sovereignty. (348-073, 2001.07.06)

16. Ambassadors for peace need to represent the True Parents. Even though from the viewpoint of Satan's side appears to be in the position of Cain, their role is not that of Cain.

What I am saying is that they have to serve the people, their elder brothers and sisters, from the position of younger brothers and sisters. Thus, they should serve their nations; thus they should serve the Unification Church.
(348-113, 2001.07.07)

17. Ambassadors are the special envoys of their nations. They represent their nations, with full authority to act for them wherever they go. Then what are ambassadors for peace?

Now that the kingship of God has been established, they are the ones who have been given full authority to act for the heavenly nation. This means that they are the ambassadors for the peace of the heavenly nation. (356-121, 2001.10.12)

18. The male ambassadors for peace represent True Father and female ambassadors for peace represent True Mother. As fathers and mothers of their nations, with the heart of God's love, they need to establish the heavenly political system wherein leaders sacrifice themselves.

By investing themselves in the sons and daughters of their nations and forgetting what they have given, always with the heart of love on behalf of God, their nations will come to resemble the kingdom of heaven on earth and the kingdom of heaven in heaven.

Thus, they will bring the liberation of heaven and earth. Then the world can become a world where God can be God, and where the Parents and all people are liberated for all eternity. Thus, the ideal world will naturally be realized.
(356-179, 2001.10.14)

19. When your ancestors receive the Blessing, they stand in the position of the three archangels to your family, whose role is to build a bridge to the earth. Who serves in that mediating role on the earth? It is the ambassadors for peace.

They are people who have been given the position of archangels, even though they may not have offered much devotion. Suppose Judaism and the nation of Israel had become one, with Jesus as their center.

Then Jesus would have formed a family, and he would have dispatched ambassadors for peace throughout the Roman Empire. Jesus was unable to dispatch 120 ambassadors for peace, so I have to indemnify that. All that was not finished must be indemnified. (401-116, 2003.01.06)

20. Ambassadors for peace are archangels. They need to be better than either the Zionists or the Palestinian Muslims. Only because they are united with the Unification Church can they be like that.

They have willingly gone to places of death and opened the gates of peace. What they are doing is like filling in a hole that has burst open in a large dam. There must be a group of people – an army wearing armor from head to toe that can be sent as one body to be sacrificed – that can block up the hole with their piled-up armor and mashed-up bones and flesh.

That army division has to block up the hole, even if the entire division dies all at once. Only then can that dam be secured and the people below the dam survive, maintaining their farmland in peace. Unless such a sacrificial group of people comes forth, world peace cannot be realized. (469-326, 2004.09.22)

21. I plan to create total unity based on a new structure of ambassadors for peace together with ambassadors for peace among young leaders, middle and high school students, and children from elementary schools and kindergartens.

Since all people in the village, from kindergarteners to college students to the pillars of society, will work in the name of ambassadors for peace, they can follow only the same path. Then, in places where we live, there can be no wars, unfilial behavior toward parents, or disloyalty to the nation. (543-075, 2006.10.26)

22. National messiahs are like the tetrarchs who had supervisory roles in the nations within the Roman Empire. They are like Abel-type kings. The sovereign of that nation is Cain, but the national messiah, as the Abel-king, needs to win the entire Cain realm over to his side.

At the same time, the national messiah needs to connect to the world messiah. The world messiah is the Lord of the Second Advent. National messiahs have to have absolute faith, absolute love, and absolute obedience before the world messiah.

If they have their opinions or ideas, they cannot create relationships in a parallel alignment. If they insist on their viewpoints, they are bound to collide with the world messiah. (331-184, 2000.09.02)

23. National messiahs can be compared to the tetrarchs of ancient Rome. The tetrarchs were higher than the governor generals. As kings are born of the bloodline of the royal family, their lineage was the basis for them to become tetrarchs.

About the president of a nation, the president is the Cain president and the national messiah is the Abel president. When the two can unite, they lay the foundation for the Parents. That is the Principle. (335-218, 2000.10.04)

24. Our anointed representatives (boonbongwang) are the governor generals of the heavenly kingdom. They are sent to counsel the kings of nations. They are the spiritual parent of the nation and can take that nation to the kingdom of heaven.

Furthermore, they are the new messiahs. They are the messiahs who represent their designated nations. They have gone to those nations to save them, not to exploit them for themselves. Furthermore, they must be good representatives. (502-179, 2005.07.28)

25. What does the Abel UN need to do? It needs to create a world of goodness by forming a peace kingdom corps and a peace kingdom police force from veterans and current soldiers within their nations. These peace forces need to be established with soldiers in active service and veterans. I have been preparing for this.
