The Emergence Of Communism

We call the Communist Party the Red Party because danger follows them.

The Revelation Concerning the Emergence of Communism

There is a story in the Old Testament history about Tamar, the daughter-in-law of Judah. What kind of woman was Tamar?

Tamar was the woman who took most seriously the desire to receive God's blood lineage. Tamar was the person who understood the importance of the blessing, which is God's bloodline.

Therefore, she, as the historical representative woman, would risk anything to receive God's lineage. Tamar stands in Eve's position.

Eve should have inherited God's tradition directly as the mother of humanity, but she neglected it and destroyed it. To restore this, the woman who is better than Eve should emerge.

The woman who recognizes that receiving the blood lineage, that is, God's blessing, is more valuable than her life needs to emerge. That woman was Tamar.

Tamar knew that she couldn't receive the blood lineage of God through her younger brother-in-law; that's why Tamar took the risk. She recognized her responsibility to continue Judah's lineage, which was blessed by God, even if it meant she should die.

This is why she tricked her father-in-law and had sexual relations with him. This is just like Eve, who tricked God and then had a sexual encounter. Tamar tricked her father-in-law to fulfill God's will.

So in this way, she restored the way of Heaven. It was the opposite of the way that Eve had gone. Eve tricked Heaven and went the way of false love, destroying Heaven and Earth.

But Tamar, to restore the world, tricked her father-in-law into inheriting God's lineage. Tamar was standing in exactly the opposite position to Eve, do you understand?

Why could Tamar be given the position of the first mother to receive Heaven's blessing, even though she committed unprincipled love? Falling, Eve tricked Heavenly Father with unprincipled love, and she perished.

But Tamar, in the opposite direction, committed unprincipled love yet did not perish. Why? Because she, more than anyone else, took God's blood lineage seriously, which meant she could go back to God.

For restoration through indemnity, God could work through Tamar, and her actions were not a crime at all from God's standpoint. Tamar was given this position based on the Principle, do you understand?

Such a position is exactly opposite to Eve's. Because of this, God's providence could continue through Tamar, do you understand? Tamar disguised herself as a prostitute and tricked her father-in-law, Judah, who was on his way to shear his sheep.

Tamar tricked and tempted him; they had sexual relations, and she became pregnant. Nobody knew that this would become the victorious base for God's providence for restoration, do you understand?

Jacob also had to trick his elder brother. Why was everything done like that? So that Tamar could become pregnant.

A fundamental movement of exchange: without a fundamental reverse, God's original victorious base for the blood lineage cannot be created. Heaven's normal victorious blood lineage foundation. Do you understand? This was Perez and Zerah.

Therefore, the reversal of position should be done in the womb. Without a reversal of position, you cannot go back to the way of principle, without establishing the standard that the elder brother, who was born first, can dominate the younger, who was born second. Do you understand? To achieve this, Perez and Zerah fought in Tamar's womb.

If you read Genesis 38, this story is explained in detail. When the elder brother was being born, he put his hand out, and the midwife tied a red ribbon to it.

This signified that in the future, Communism could emerge before the Second Advent. The younger brother pulled back the elder brother, who had the red ribbon tied to his hand, and the younger came out first. (58-63)

Tamar disguised herself as a prostitute and was seduced sexually by Judah. Then came Perez and Zerah. Perez and Zerah had to exchange positions inside the womb.

Jacob and Esau had exchanged their positions, but the fundamental process of restoration inside the womb remained.

To restore this, the twins needed to fight in the womb. Zerah's hand came first, and the midwife tied a red ribbon to it; this signified that the Communist Party could emerge first, do you understand? In the Last Days, before the Lord comes, Communism will first emerge, just as Zerah with the red ribbon came first before Perez.

Then Perez pulled back Zerah to emerge first. This signifies that the Communist world, which comes first as elder brother, will be pulled back by the younger brother, who will emerge with a worldwide foundation. Do you understand?

Therefore, the younger was born first, from the position of the younger pulling back the elder. Perez means to pull back and to come out. Do you understand?

Goodness should have started first and continued, but evil interrupted and started fallen history, didn't it? Finally, this was reversed. (43-199)

The Essentials Of God’s Providential History
God created everything with a certain purpose, so the will of God is to fulfill His purpose of creation.

The Color Red and Communism

White symbolizes safety, Red symbolizes danger: is that true? Therefore, we call the Communist Party the Red Party.

We call the Communist Party the Red Party because danger follows them. Because of the danger, they are called the red party. Likewise, right-wing is to be righteous, or true, or on the side of right. The name itself implies that. People did not make up these names. (39-127)

Satan is the evil entity in Heaven and on Earth. Satan cannot stand in front of Heaven without revealing his identity. He cannot stand in the court of judgment of the Absolute Being. Because Satan is so evil, on the left side, the name left-wing emerged, and people call them the red party.

Red symbolizes danger, doesn't it? Yes.

The thief on the right side represents the emergence of the democratic world. The democratic world emerged on behalf of the right side thief. Therefore, it is called right wing. If we see the flag of the Communist world, which is left-wing, it is a red flag, while the democratic world, which is right-wing, has a white flag.

In the Last Days, everything will bear fruit on both sides; therefore, this is the age of proof, in which identities will be revealed. Everything should tell the truth. All that has happened has centered upon the True Parents.

Centering on Jesus, only the spiritual world was established, not the physical world. Because of this, today we have the Communist and democratic worlds. (23-177)

It is so strange, isn't it?

Who called the Communists left-wing and the democratic world right-wing?

It was planted like that, and that's how it grew. The color red of the red party signifies danger. White signifies peace. The democratic world is called white. The Communist world is called red.

Who, in the beginning, made these names? Everyone should tell the truth, centering on their conscience in front of God. Everyone should tell the truth.

Falseness has no way to go but to destruction. Their identities should be revealed.

That's why Communism is red or left-wing. Everybody must tell the truth in front of the person who knows all the facts.

Although evil has worldwide power and foundation, evil itself cannot deny its identity in front of God, who knows everything about the identity of evil. Therefore, they call themselves red or left-wing, revealing their identity. (20-173)

What kind of “ism” do we call ours?

Democracy is white. On the other hand, Communism is red, isn't it? Why white? It represents doing work centered on God. God is doing worldwide work. What is Communism? Doing work centered on Satan. They are different. The Communists have the color red, so we feel wary.

Victory Over Communism
Hence, the project to educate the Korean people was a prelude to awakening all humanity.

The Symbolism of Dividing the Sheep and the Goats

In Matthew 25, in the Last Days, God will send the sheep to the right and the goats to the left.

This symbolizes that the evil world will be divided and separated into two: the sheep who belong to the Lord and the goats who do not belong to the Lord. That time is now: the democratic world attends God as their Lord, while the Communist world denies God's existence and treats religion as its enemy.

These are not just my words; history has destined it to go like this. Two is the closest to one. So, in the Last Days, it will be divided into two like this. (45-47)

In the Bible, the sheep and goats will be separated in the Last Days. Why?

What was planted will be harvested in autumn. Again, on the Last Day, everything will be harvested according to what was planted. Because human beings have been planted with a mind and body fighting, the time will come to bear this fruit on the global level.

What is the present time?

This is the time when the democratic and Communist worlds are separated. One world is centered on God, the other world is centered on materialism. One world represents the internal mind, and the other world represents the external body.

These two different worlds have emerged based on the self, the fighting mind and body. (43-61)

All of you, if you read the Bible, the sheep and goats will be separated as the sheep who have an owner and the goats who do not have an owner. Because of this, the democratic world has a view of history centered on God. On the other hand, the Communist world has a God-denying view, with no owner of history. (53-186)

According to the Bible, in the Last Days, the sheep and goats will be separated. Sheep have an owner, while goat have no owner. The world today is exactly like this. The free world has God as its owner, but the Communist world denies God's existence; they do not have an owner.

This is the worldwide fruition of the separated mind and body of the fallen individual humans. Finally, the autumn season has come, and what was planted in the spring is being harvested. (54-125)

The End of Communism
Today the world is divided into the two camps of communism and democracy, representing Cain and Abel on the global level.

Jesus' Cross And Today's World

Today's World is the Return of Jesus' Cross

Jesus is the embodied origin of truth, that is, the seed of truth. That seed was planted because of his crucifixion. All of you know that there was a thief on the right side and a thief on the left side of Jesus.

Further, Barabbas was the person who received the blessing because of Jesus and gained new life from the position of death. Jesus said he would come again after his crucifixion. Because he went to the Cross, he has to return from the cross.

When the phenomenon of Jesus' crucifixion is heralded on the world level, then will come the Lord at the Second Advent; you have to know this. (69-110)

Jesus came to the Israelites, but he did not accomplish his entire mission; he then promised that he would return to enter the Christian culture. Christendom is the beginning of a new history centering on Jesus. Jesus was planted. Jesus was a true person: that true person was planted. But when Jesus was planted, he was not planted wholly cleanly or alone, but accompanied by Satan's accusation.

You have to know that when what was planted at the time of Jesus bears fruit on the global level, this will signify the Last Days. At the time of Jesus' crucifixion, there was a thief on the right and a thief on the left, and before Jesus was Barabbas. The term right-wing or left-wing was not derived today.

What was planted in Jesus' time has now been harvested as right and left wings. The left-side thief said to Jesus, “If you are the Son of God, save us,”. He denied Jesus. The right-side thief said to the left thief, “Of course, we should die because of our sin, but this person should not die because he has no sin”. He was on the side of Jesus, overcame difficulties, and defended him.

Therefore, the thief on the right went to Paradise with Jesus. We know this from the Bible.

What kind of person was Barabbas?

He was saved by Jesus, but he was against Jesus. Therefore, such a cultural realm should emerge. This is the Islamic realm. Islam, on the one hand, has the Koran, and on the other hand, the sword. That violates the tradition of a pure religion.

They believe in the Old Testament, but they are doing wrong things.

A person physically has a physical mind and physical body, and spiritually has a spiritual mind and spiritual body. In the same way, there is an internal world and an external world.

Jesus was in an internal position. From an internal position, Jesus and the thief on the right became one, and from an external position, the thief on the left and Barabbas became one. (53-188)

Centering upon Jesus, the right-side and left-side thieves, and also Jesus and Barabbas were planted. History was planted in this way. It should be harvested as it was planted. So, what first appeared were right and left wings, which are democracy and Communism.

Next to take global prominence was the Barabbas-type, the Islamic realm. Islam, the Barabbas-type religion that received the blessing because of Jesus, started by centering on the Old Testament. The history that began like that has now brought about three leading realms. This means we are entering the time of harvest.

Nasser, in the Islamic world, had a dream of one unified Islamic nation. Similarly, Christianity now has a worldwide trend toward unifying all religions. When we see this kind of worldwide trend, we can understand that the history that began or was planted from misery is finally appearing due to the fruit of goodness centered upon God.

In the last days of fallen history, everything will be harvested according to its original planting; this is an inevitable phenomenon in God's providence. Then what should come now?

Jesus was crucified for the sake of all humankind.

At the time, the left-side thief blamed Jesus, who carried the cross (Lk 23-39), "Aren't you Christ? Then save yourself and save us".

What has appeared from the left-side thief is Communism that blames and denies God. The right-side thief, talking to the left-side thief, said, “You silly person; although you have sinned, you are not afraid of God. We should be punished for our sin, of course, but this person has no sin at all.”

The right-side thief recognized Jesus and defended him, and testified to Heaven. Democracy and the right-wing world have appeared due to the right-wing thief.

Islam is from Barabbas, who received liberation from the position of death by Jesus. Nasser, from the Islamic world, is seeking to benefit from the conflict between the right-wing and left wing. This is the policy of Nasser. Democracy is the internal side, and communism is the external side.

The right wing is internal, and the left wing is external. Therefore, the Messiah's world will come on the internal foundation of the democratic world, which respects God. The Messiah will embrace the external environment. He will form a unification movement centering on the Christian cultural realm.

In the Last Days, this kind of movement will begin. This will begin, not accidentally, but because it was planted in the beginning, such a movement will emerge. (21-75)

The Two Worlds Of Good And Evil
If I said that you were all very evil, you would be upset and hurt. On the other hand, if I said that you were all good people, you would feel happy.

Four Groups on the Earth in the Last Days

In Jesus' time, God and Satan fought, and the planting of the global struggle between God and Satan occurred. The place where Jesus was crucified was where God and Satan fought.

As this is the time of the Last Days and the time of harvest, there should appear on the global level the struggle between God and Satan. There were four figures, viewed from centering on Jesus.

Jesus, the right-side thief, the left-side thief, and Barabbas. All four share with each other a relationship centering on life and death. From this relationship, Barabbas was resurrected physically, and Jesus was resurrected spiritually. (53-132)

People say today's world is the era of the Soviet Union, China, and America, but that is not true. America, the Communist, and the Arab realms are today's realms. The Arabic realm is the Islamic realm. Do you understand? Today, the world is divided into the democratic world, the Communist world, and the Arab world.

Then, one more needs to come: this is the world of the Heavenly Kingdom. When the Heavenly Kingdom is established, then the realm of resurrection, which signifies Jesus' victory, will arrive. Why?

To the extent the truth was planted, the truth will be harvested. Isn't that true? If you plant some birdseed, you will be harvesting some birdseed. What you plant, you will harvest. (57-332)

God divided the nations, and God made many “isms” and thoughts, and even divided Communism. So everything is divided. They will merge into four groups.

When the four groups are formed, it is the time of the end of fallen history.

Now this time is coming. The four groups should be formed on a global level. Since Jesus is the Prince of Truth, the time will come to harvest what Jesus planted. (49-196)

What, from now on, is the problem?

All have to die. Because Jesus died, so the right-side and left-side thief died, Christianity will end, democracy will end, Communism will end – isn't that true?

Even the Islamic realm will end. Because the owner of the universe disappeared, many disasters will happen: we are in such a destiny. The historical view of the Unification Church is that at the Second Advent, the Lord will come on earth with the authority of the resurrection.

When families are divided, you can know that the time of the heavenly family is forming. When a mother and father are at war with each other, you can know that the satanic world is fighting itself into destruction.

When a church minister and elders are at war in the church, you can know that God has already left that church. When the church members are at war with the church minister, then you can know that it's the Last Days.

From now on, such phenomena will happen in the world. The position where the most blood was spilled is the position where Jesus was crucified. This is the place where Jesus should be resurrected again. Korea is precisely the country in that position. In that sense, the Lord at the Second Advent will come from Korea.

Centering on North and South Korea, at the dividing line of right and left, the communist and democratic worlds came into existence. Many families were separated on the national level. If you understand this, you can understand God's providence. (50-72)

Jesus Christ, The Pride of God
God, who created the world, created Adam and Eve as the embodiment of His pride toward all things in heaven and earth.

The Islamic Realm And Communism

The Islamic Realm's View

Who is Barabbas? He was supposed to die, but because of Jesus, he survived, isn't that true? The Arabic realm is today's Islamic realm. Islam came from Christianity and has deviated from the religious tradition. They are the Cain-type world religion, the Barabbas-type religion.

If you do not accept the Koran, you are put to death. Do you understand? In the democratic world, Christianity is the internal, spiritual standard. In the Communist world, Islam can stand in the internal position.

Therefore, Islam and Christianity are historical enemies, and also democracy and Communism are historical enemies. (50-224)

Which country is like Barabbas? It is the Islamic countries, holding in one hand the Koran and in the other the sword. That is not the essence of real faith. They are fundamentally wrong if seen from the original religious teachings. Islam became the internal and external side of communism. (69-112)

What kind of person was Barabbas?

He was able to survive because of Jesus, isn't that true? He was a rebel against the government; he tried to raise a revolt against the government. He was to have been executed immediately. But because of Jesus, he survived, isn't that true?

If the parent of Barabbas was Jesus, then Barabbas should have been loyal to Jesus, at the risk of his life, since he received liberation instead of Jesus. This is the way for everyone to go.

Where is the Barabbas realm?

Barabbas survived death because of Jesus. Since he received liberation from Jesus, he should have been concerned about Jesus' death and been sympathetic towards Jesus carrying the cross, but instead, he blamed Jesus.

Although Jesus was resurrected only after his crucifixion, Barabbas never died but received liberation through Jesus. You have to understand that the Islamic realm, which believes the Koran centers on the Old Testament, has originated from this fact.

Because of this, Islam became the enemy of Christianity. Just as Jesus and the right-side thief became one, so the time will come when the left-side thief and Barabbas will become one. Then what is the democratic world? It is represented by the right-side thief.

This is not a story that Rev. Moon is making up. History is destined to go that direction. What, from now on, is the problem? The Islamic realm is the problem, and the Communist world is the problem.

You have to understand that the Communist Party and the Islamic realm are cooperating. The democratic world, standing on the right side with Jesus, should prevent this. Where has the power of the democratic world gone to prevent this? (54-127)

Peace between Mind and Body
The place where you live is full of gangsters. Your mind and body are fighting each other.

Communism Cooperates with Islam

From now on, the Communist Party will use its entire means to try to work together with the Islamic realm. Father has been mentioning this for a long time now, from when he first met the American president Eisenhower in 1965.

Father said to Eisenhower that when Communism declines, then the Communist world would rise again, with the cooperation of the Islamic world, against the democratic world. This is happening now. (47-193)

When I met Eisenhower, I mentioned that from now on, even though the democratic world would triumph over the Communist world, Communism would cooperate with the Islamic world.

You have to understand that now, the Soviets are in cooperation with the Islamic world, Egypt, and India, to invade the democratic world. America is withdrawing from the attack. The Satanic side is becoming one and is trying to swallow the democratic world. The democratic world is not taking this seriously. (63-134)

Now, the Islamic realm and the Communist realm are in cooperation. (65-272)

What Father is most concerned about is the possibility of fighting between the Islamic nations and the democratic world. Communism may become one with the Islamic realm.

At this time, the Nasser military government surprises the Soviets. If either Communism or democracy declines, they may seek further cooperation with the Islamic world, and they may go to war.

Therefore, the Unification Church has the providential responsibility to prevent this. Father has been watching with great concern the Islamic and Communist worlds, particularly Pakistan, India, Saudi Arabia, and East Asia. (18-237)

If the democratic world defeats the Communist Party and that declines, they, in cooperation with the Islamic realm, will again attack the democratic world.

What can stop this?

The democratic world is wondering about this problem; they do not have a center, so they do not know where they are going. They will become like a reed in the wind. Only the Unification Church can become the mast and anchor line for the democratic world. (60-226)

Islam and the Establishment of World Peace
In the face of annihilation, human beings, like all created species, respond with emergency measures.

The Mission Of The Right Wing

The right side represents the right wing, that is, the democratic world. (72-129)

Since Jesus died and was resurrected, when the right wing is resurrected, the left wing will emerge at the same time. The right and left wings represent democracy and Communism, do you understand? (Yes!)

This will happen, definitely this is true. Because Jesus is the Parent, when the Age of Restoration comes, which can complete Jesus' responsibility, and he is liberated, then there will emerge two sides that will wage war on each other. Jesus was crucified and buried for the sake of Heaven.

Now the parents arrive and unify these two different worlds and establish the Heavenly Kingdom on Earth. Thus, this is the time of harvest on the global level of all that was planted. Where did the term “right-wing” come from? It originated from the right-side thief, the seed was planted in the spring.

Do you know if this was a true or a false seed?

You don't know. What was planted in Jesus' time will appear only after the autumn season has arrived at harvest time. When the autumn season comes, all things will appear as they are.

This form will appear on the world level. When the three sons ' realms become one centering on God, when the dutiful children become one centering on God, then the parents will be happy and will give their blessing to the dutiful sons. That time is the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth, and the Ideal world is established, do you understand? This is the time to identify everything on the world level. (57-333)

The communist party says God does not exist. The democratic world says God does exist. We call the democratic world the right wing, and the communist world the left wing. What the right and left thief planted at the time of Jesus' crucifixion will be harvested at the time of the Lord of the Second Advent.

The left thief accused Jesus, If you are Christ, then save yourself and us, and he said, “Where is God, if you are the son of God, how can you die like this?” Jesus did not say anything.

At the time, the thief on the right scolded the thief on the left, “We receive the same punishment, and we deserve it, but this person has done nothing wrong to deserve this punishment.”

The thief on the right was the only person in history to move to Jesus' side; therefore, he could receive the words, “Today you will be with me in Paradise”. You have to understand that he will be at the front to open the gates to the Heavenly Kingdom. In that sense, the Communist world is left-wing.

It is from the time of Jesus that the name left-wing originated. The democratic world is right-wing. The country leading the right side is America. America has to play the role of the thief on the right. The Communist Party says, “God has died”.

The Democratic Party, as the thief on the right, should prove God's definite existence and fight against Communism at the risk of their lives. (69-131)

Where is the democratic world, which has to play the role of the thief on the right, going now? Where is Christianity going? Christianity has to meet Jesus, liberate Jesus, and meet his resurrection with glory, but where are they going now?

The free world is going its own way, Christianity is going its own way, dividing, separating. On the other hand, the satanic world is becoming one. (53-313)

As the democratic world is declining, if you do not determine to die for the sake of Jesus and the Lord at the Second Advent and hold on to God until the end, then at the Second Advent, the Lord will be crucified also.

Although the Lord will come, he will also face death. The time has come now. The Lord will make one world; he will not kill the Islamic and Communist worlds. He will embrace them and make one free world centering on Christianity. At the crucifixion, there was a war.

When the Lord comes, he should be welcomed with a world peace banquet, and finally, the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth will be established at that time.

Our Mission In The Last Days Of Providential History
The fall of Adam and Eve, our first ancestors, imprisoned us within the dungeon of false love, false life, and false lineage.

Communism Is The Enemy Of God And All Humankind

America is now facing various serious problems, such as those of race, youth immorality, the collapse of Christianity, and Communism. Among these problems, the danger of Communism centering on atheism is the most serious problem. Even now, their ideology is spreading throughout the world.

This is not only America's problem but the problem of all religious people, God, and the free world. This is a desperately serious problem. (88-212)

What does God hate the most?

I know three points. First, the Communist Party. People are wondering why the Unification Church has established the International Federation for Victory Over Communism [IFVOC], and is actively working against communism. I, as a religious leader, know definitely that God exists and acts, and that is the reason the Unification Church is doing IFVOC activities for the sake of God.

God's biggest headache is the Communist Party. God surely is alive and considers all mankind as his children. Communism denies God's existence, just like people who deny their parents when the parents are alive but not with them. Therefore, we cannot be quiet.

If we are quiet, then we cannot be God's filial children; instead, we become rebellious children. In this sense, the activity of VOC is inevitable, to defend God, who stands as our Father. Second, the corruption of religion. Third, the decline of moral standards.

America, as a Christian nation, is on the path of corruption. Christianity, which developed from 2000 years of persecution and sacrifice, has been declining for several decades due to the Communist strategy of God-denial. Communism always denies God's existence.

The Communist Party is using denial to push Christianity into decline. If you investigate the hippie movement, which is full of moral problems, you will find the Communist Party strategy working. They have been active for 10 to 20 years.

By creating an immoral lifestyle, they want to break down the family and the world. They think they can achieve the destruction of the democratic world without weapons. They think that if the family is breaking down, if the church is breaking down, if God's ideology is breaking down, then this world will become their own. So, these three headaches came from Satan.

Therefore, the Unification Church is trying to destroy Satan. To do IFVOC work, we have to establish new family ethics and new world ethics. Therefore, I have a goal to establish the perfect world of God; I have founded the IFVOC.

I will fight on the front line against the Japanese and American Communist parties, with new family-ethics, new religious-ethics, and new world-ethics systems. (26th April 1981)

What is the greatest problem in the world?

What is first? It is the decline of thought, and it is the decline of religion. How is the decline of thought occurring? It is from the decline of religion. The formation of the world's cultures comes from each religion. If God is alive, God must feel miserable to see the decline of Christianity.

Who will take responsibility for this? The Unification Church should take responsibility for this. What is the next difficult thing for God? It is Communism.

Communism is the most difficult problem for God and the world. Because Communism has an ideology centering on materialism, they say that God doesn't exist, that religion is the opiate of the people, and that they intend to destroy religion at its roots. I should be responsible for this problem. What is next?

The youth problem, youth immorality. America now has to face this problem more than any other country. So, in this sense, I put the motto, “Unification Church, let's take responsibility for the most difficult problems that the world has today”.

Therefore, I have been on the front line to fight Communism. I have now been recognized on the worldwide level. (84-218)

What is God's worst headache?

It is World Communism. I will triumph over this problem through my effort. Therefore, the worldwide Communist Party hates me the most. They hate me the most: did you know that? We have to triumph over the ideology of communism. (85-327)

God’s Kingdom Of Peace Is The Eternal Home Of Our Blessed Families
I received Heaven’s call at the youthful age of sixteen and have dedicated my life of more than eighty years to the task of accomplishing God’s Will on this earth and saving humankind.

The True Nature Of Communism

The Nature Of Communism

Where does Communism come from? About 50 years ago, in 191,7, it appeared out of the blue in the Soviet Union. Can we look at the historical meaning of Communism and our present times more coherently? Yes, we can. (18-11)

Communism is a world ideology. But what kind of world ideology? It does not believe in God. It is evil that appears on stage, taking advantage of the late appearance of good. This is the fundamental stance of the Unification Church. (56-163)

Today, we hear the Communist battle cry: “Oh, liberate the peasants from capitalism.” We recognize that Communism does not agree with our historical understanding that God is the center of history, is the creator of certain churches, and the impetus for the liberation of those oppressed.

Communism is based on the materialist conception of the world and world liberation. It rejects God, calls religion “the opiate of the masses,” and is devoted to stamping out religion. In theory, it also contradicts its claim of liberation.

It is undoubtedly a liberation scheme against God and, as the flag bearer of the devil, challenges the flag bearer of God's church. This is the conclusion we can draw from Communism.

What is Communism?

It is the religion of the devil, taking on the form of a real religion to those who are gullible. I see Communism as a theoretical instrument of the devil, called materialism. Why? Because it is evil. (85-230)

Materialism, another name for Communism, is a derivative of religion because it aims to unify all religions around materialism. It resembles Christianity in that it concentrates on some external issues as a materialist religion. Isn't man trying to play God in this? It's the same as making Kim Il Sung the father.

As an absolute entity, he has become a deity. It's very similar to religious thinking. There is also the external resemblance to religion. Internally, it unifies thoughts. So the real and the false come to resemble each other. (41-339)

If you look at the Communist countries, it is obvious that individual rights are ignored in favor of the State. Where is the individual within the State? Where is the individual in the State conception of property ownership?

The Communists establish the Party as absolute. They say, “You must obey the Party, and it forever,” to “liberate the world through Communism.”

Where is the human value on which Communism insists?

It is located in absolute obedience to the Party. It's all turned upside down. The individual and everything else are sacrificed for the Party. Can the Party last forever? Can it maintain its authority forever?

Things are changing. Communism is changing. If it were absolute and eternal, the party line might be a plausible explanation. But that is not possible while it is changing.

Those who live within the Communist sphere end up longing for human autonomy, individual rights, and an individual-centered worldview. You know, if the Berlin Wall were to come down, all East Germans would flood to West Germany. Why? Because you cannot forever deprive humanity of its fundamental rights.

Communism could conquer the world if it were to establish a free world within its sphere. Viewed this way, Communism is at a crossroads between individual rights and materialist rights, whose conflict humankind must confront and triumph over.

What is evil? Evil is in self-centeredness. The worst evil is raising the slogan of self-centeredness to the world. What is Communism? It is a self-centered slogan, and will do anything for its self-interest. (32-232)

You probably feel you know the Communists. Communism must fall within. It won't fall through external battles. If it falls externally, it goes underground, a fertile ground for wayward children learning guerrilla techniques and stealing.

Stealing is the Party's most common feature. It rapes the passerby. Everything in the world is its enemy. It uses anything to excuse what it wants to do. Just on some excuse. It steals a cow from the village, takes it to the mountain, and devours it. It can mug and kill a wealthy person on any street corner.

Those are all for revolutionary tasks. Counterrevolutionaries and dissidents are all dealt with this way. They would do anything everywhere.

When they send agents to South Korea, do you think they come with money? No, the agents learn to pick pockets. Pick-pocketing is their mode of operation.

Some become pick-pocket ringleaders and now, staying behind the lines, support others to do their spy activities. You must know this. (163198)

Communist Strategy And Tactics

Communists' Deception Techniques

All of you, look at the leftists' activities. All is deception. All is disguised. Their most important strategic-tactical weapon is their deceptive disguise. They disguise the truth. Evil is represented as true, what is false. (36-60)

The Communist Party has been practicing deception as its standard policy. This practice risks exposure eventually. That evil has been in successful existence so long does not mean that its activities are normal.

Given their successful invasion using deception and disguise, we can tell that it is Satan's evil playground. This is a problem. (36-26)

What are the Communist strategy and tactics?

None other than to establish the dictatorship of the proletariat through a surprise attack. That's their main idea. For their flanking operation, they go on a peace offensive. Their diehard strategy is to get the bourgeois class intoxicated and to dance to their tune, and then, at the opportune moment, to go for the decisive blow.

They have used this strategy often. Of course, it's the deception strategy. It's Satan's tactic. That's why they dig tunnels. They all go underground and dig tunnels. Why are they digging tunnels?

So that guilty parties can go hiding in them… that's Communism. That will eventually sweep the world. That will demonstrate their muscle. (78-216)

That's the Communist Party. They will not last long, even though they use the deception strategy and do everything to conquer. They cannot last, and one day they will fall. (62-203)

I am well-versed in Communist theory. So, they can't fool me with their deception.

For the past 15 years, I have been working with the Liberal Democrats in Japan to counter the Communist theory. Since things are changing as I have predicted, the Japanese are more eager to consult me on these matters.

Normally, the Japanese would not consult a Reverend Moon, a Korean, on anything. (1981-4.26)

The Three Cheon Il Guk Scriptures
It is time-sensitive that Father’s words be gathered and organized. We have many volumes of Father’s words, but they are not properly organized.

Communist Threat and Intimidation

I know the Communists well. They use threat and intimidation until the opponent weakens, and then assault him. You must remember this pattern. The evil Satan is always on the attack. He cannot attack God because He is stronger. But when the children of God become weaker than he, then Satan attacks immediately.

I have always loved God. I have been imprisoned and threatened, and intimidated many times. My East Garden residence in America has been bomb-rigged by the Communists. However, thanks to God's protection, none of the bombs went off. I am impervious to their threats and intimidation.

I still fight in the trenches in the face of perilous dangers. There is an organization in New York that offers to kill people for 170. I once had this organization investigated. I have investigated the Mafia, the Communist organization, and underground gangs. As a religious leader, I have done all this.

I coached the whole thing in our fight against Congressman Frazer. Bo Hi Park is standing right here, but I also studied organizational training, Communist tactics, and other related matters. (1981-4.26)

The Communist nations are dictatorial. Their actions and spoken words are two different things. (54-51)

Realistically, the Communists are the world's Satan, and the cell unit is their organizational mode of operation. “Oh, I don't want to know any more than what concerns me, just my own business,” is the kind of mentality that invites attacks from them. “It's all right as long as you are not involved, is Satan's standard technique. They use deception and attain their objective through gradual steps. (71-104)

The Communist ideology is precisely that. They force you to obey them through threats and intimidation. To avoid pain and suffering, you give in, pretending you are one of them. But you will escape as soon as the first opportunity arises because you were forced into it in the first place. (32-254)

The Unmitigated Lies of Communism

Communists do not hesitate to use lies as their routine means. Defamation is common. They will distort everything and make your life unbearable. Isn't that so?

There is not one nation in the world that believes that North Korea invaded South Korea, thanks to the former's incessant propaganda of the past 40 years. Everyone thinks the South invaded the North. Out-and-out lies continue.

You don't know unless you have experienced it. It's pure evil.

The North has been saying that everyone is hungry in the South, with mobs of poor people sweeping through streets, causing chaos and havoc. People there think so. They say in Japan that they would never go to South Korea.

Their heads would be cut off, they think. Do you understand this kind of North Korea? You don't? (No.) That's why I say many of you remain ignorant. That's ignorance. Don't tell me it isn't so.

Reverend Moon thanks God for teaching him about Communism by throwing him into their prison. Theory alone is not enough. Even the Communists themselves don't know how Communism works. They believe in their unmitigated lies.

There was this fellow who was my prison warden. The prison meals consisted of low-grade mixed grains, but the warden would ask us, “Don't you think our laborers are well-fed with white rice and once-a-week meat soup, and they are so strong?” Every prisoner had to answer, “Yes, of course,” just to save his skin. I went through hell for two years and eight months doing self-criticism.

All Communists are liars. The prison warden told lies every day. He would say, “Our Great Leader Kim Il Sung feeds his prisoners fat beef and plentiful rice every day so that they work diligently at the factory, etc.”

Those lying hoodlums wouldn't even feed us our ration, cutting it to one-third, with the worst-grade grains at that. All the while, they would sing “Our Great Leader,” etc. It was every day.

The Communists lie like snakes in the grass. Lying is routine for Communists. You must remember this. It's routine. They routinely lie and deceive.

The Communists are unmitigated liars. Because I know this, I am well-versed in Soviet strategies and tactics.

All their insistence on historical materialism and dialectical materialism is just an out-and-out lie.

Our Homeland for the Sake of the World
Living for the sake of the other is the basis for the order of the universe.

Communists Work in the Dark

Satan works at night. Isn't that so? God works during the day. Day is God's domain, as night is Satan's. So, the Communists do their work at night. All their underground work is done at night.

That's why they dig tunnels to conquer the world. All is done at night, and they cover it up so cleverly. They cover up evil and trumpet some things to the world as propaganda. North Korea today represents all evil nations. Do you understand?

Isn't that so? The North Korean Communists may be killed one thousand times over, but that's never enough for all their evil deeds.

The Communists push humankind to its death by using force and pressure. They do all their work under the cover of darkness, never in the light. All their operations take place at night. They do nothing during the day. Night is a shadow. They must be destroyed. Communism must be destroyed.

The Communists work in the dark. You must remember that. They do their important training at night. When they torture prisoners, the nastiest things are done at night. That shows that they are real Satans.

That's why we call them underground organizations. The underground organization is the Communists' common reference. You must remember this. Once we recognize this, we must work more than 24 hours a day. You must understand that you cannot otherwise overcome Communism.

You must understand how Communism works. You must understand that Communists, if so ordered, will refrain from rest for 24 hours straight. Many of them go to work at night, others during the day. You must know this.

You rest on Saturdays and Sundays here. People want to reduce their 8-hour workday to 6 hours. You will be eaten alive that way. Think, what would happen? Are you going to win or lose? You will surely lose. (92-132)

Live for the Sake of Others
If we say, “God is mine,” how happy we will be! The king of all males is God, and the king of all females is God.

The Cruel Nature Of Communism

In their pursuit of a foundation for world dominance, the Soviets killed 70 million people. They don't think like those freedom-loving people the world over. Mao killed 50 or 60 million people for the Communization of China.

The New York Times has reported on the killing fields in Vietnam and Laos. Over two million people were killed during the Korean War.

During the past 40 years of Communist dominance, over 150 million people have been killed, and many scores of millions persecuted.

Do you know how many Christians are being killed off under Communism? Do you know how many are killed off in the Soviet Union, in North Korea, in China?

The Communist Party decides whether one will make a good Party member based on one's willingness to turn in one's parents. It's patricide, or parent-killing. One must be willing to purge one's parents and siblings.

Communists use intimates to purge the undesirable. How can this be? This is the greatest contradiction of all. It's the most extreme form of evil against good, and the most extreme form of falsehood against truth.

Fallen Nature
Fallen nature refers to a mentality that is derailed from the original track of the Principle that God originally intended.

The Communists' Strategy For World Domination

The Communists' Strategy

Reverend Moon knows about Communism only too well. Communism dreams of world dominance as its reason for being.

You must understand Communism thoroughly. It has already infiltrated labor unions and the State Department. You must understand that they are all infiltrated by the Communists.

Everyone must understand the Communists. Looking at China, in 1922 or '23, it was already infiltrated by them, only 6 years after the Communization of the Soviet Union in 1917. Do you understand what this means?

Following this pattern, we know that Communism has been existing for over 60, 70 years. It has infiltrated the United States and other places all over the world.

That's why Europe is the way it is, Latin America is the way it is, and in Africa, the Communist sphere of influence is already challenging capitalism in many countries. It's not the Soviets doing the fighting, but the proxies and cell units of the native country. You must understand this.

As I have investigated it, they have infiltrated the churches in America. Many agents are working as deacons and having secret meetings in many American churches. You have to understand that Korea has become like that, too.

No nation in the world is immune to this threat. That includes South Korea. South Koreans believe North Korea will invade them someday. Americans believe that, too. I have met many senators and representatives, and all of them feel the threat of Communism. I ask, “Can you stop Communism with your mighty wealth?” They say, “No, we can't.” They are all tangled in the Communist web. So is Great Britain.

The Protestant-Catholic conflict in Northern Ireland is controlled by the Communists in the background. So is Germany. There is no nation impervious to Communism. It's fairly standard throughout the world.

What are the Communists up to these days? They are on a peace offensive in Europe to weaken the anti-Communist forces. They are using the peace slogans to infiltrate Third World countries.

The Communists lure working-class individuals to oppose the upper class. The middle classes are not obvious about what their position is in society and lack certainty about their class ideas.

The Way of Our Original Nature
We should not think that we were born by our own will. We were born into this world, yet we do not know the motivation and purpose behind our birth.

Communism infiltrates Christian Churches.

Communism does its utmost to destroy democracy and Christian-based family values. They lure the young with drugs and stir them with anti-authority values to bring disharmony to family life.

They also alienate men and women from each other. In this way, Christian authority is ruined. The Communist arrow is shattering our civilization. We must stop this.

Who is Jesus? Christians answer, “Jesus is the Savior.” The word Savior is applied only to Jesus, not just anybody. Theoretically speaking, you cannot have thousands of people titled Savior. That's impossible. For this reason, Communism is destined to be relegated to the dustbin of history.

We must rebuild historic Christian principles. This rebuilding cannot be done with the old principles. We must perfect the Four Christians' personality by entering a higher level of being and character that would stand eternally.

If we say capitalism is based on democratic culture, and democratic culture is based on Christian civilization, what is the purpose of Communist infiltration? It is to destroy Christian civilization. Given this, we need to know how Communism infiltrates Christianity.

I sometimes wonder if the infiltration has not already been completed. Reviewing today's theological trends, it is easy to see that theologians have concluded that there is no God. That's their conclusion.

That leads us to believe that the Communist infiltration of Christian principles and its breakup of the theological schools has already been completed.

The theological views center around personal salvation, holding individual salvation as the main purpose. But the Communists have begun to argue that Jesus came not to save individuals, but to start a revolution against the Roman Empire.

They quote Jesus' preaching to the poor and sayings about the difficulty of rich individuals going to heaven as evidence for their argument.

They also argue that there must be no God because there was no response when Jesus cried, when faced with the cross, “Father, let this cup pass from me. But it is as You will, not I,” and “Why have you forsaken me?”

Therefore, God is man's creation. Religion is, in part, an ethical system and cannot abrogate its social responsibility, they argue. The reason for Christian development was, they say, for the capitalists to perpetuate their superior social positions. Over 80 percent of theologians and seminary professors deny that God exists.

There are trends toward social salvation, away from individual salvation, and toward liberation theology and political theology as new names. They are trying to build a social revolution toward a secular utopia.

The Communists are changing the face of Christianity. We are confronting a problem of how to change families and societies, as they are the core elements of Christian civilization.

We must realize that the hippies and yuppies, corruption, drugs, and so on are all part of the Communist world's strategies. In particular, free sex, homosexuality, the lesbian movement, and other such phenomena destroy human rights and dignity.

It has reached a point where no one, not even theologians or national governments, can stop the destruction of the family and churches.

So, what happened to the mainstream of Christianity? It has fallen into individualism. The United States, for example, has been completely severed from the Christian belief. Christianity cannot be individualistic. Individualism, when it expands, tends to deny the world, nation, family, tradition, and history.

I have received a letter recently from a young Communist, which warns me of the perils that churches face from Communist activities. He says in the letter that they are given money to donate to a church as they infiltrate church bases for their activities. I received that letter that should be exposed to the world.

You must know that many existing church ministers dance to the Communist tune. You must realize that they send members to churches to work in cell units in America. You must realize that through these cell-units, they perpetuate anti-government and anti-Korea activities worldwide.

We must recognize that there are established Christian ministers who are controlled by this sinister force behind them, several times removed from the scene, without even recognizing the fact that they are being controlled.

Given this situation in America, what are you going to do about America? Very soon, the Communist agents will play Jews and Christians against each other.

Those are already ganging up on the Unification Church, but once that war is over, they will be fighting each other. They have plenty of reasons to ignite a war between them.

Jews already say the Reverend Moon is anti-Jewish, but once they started a war with the Christians, it would be much worse. We remain silent because we know all this.

Look, everybody. You must know that there are Communists among the ranks of Catholic priests. It's true for Protestants and Catholics alike. These days, some leftist priests say Jesus was a communist.

They point out, as reason, that Jesus preached to the poor. That's true. We must understand that there are many wolves in sheep's clothing.

What is the Communist Party?

It's the whip to be used for judging Christianity. Christianity must repent. The whip will not be used if we understand the cause of our ruination and destroy the cause that contradicts Heaven's edicts and repent sincerely before God. The whip will be withdrawn then.

When faced with Communist perils, Christianity must call on its young people from all over the world and defend the nations to thwart the perils.

All Christians of the world must unite economically and in human resources and support those nations in trouble from Communist infiltration. Reverend Moon believes that this is the last stand against the Communist ideology.

The New Future of Humankind
The problems we currently face do not arise from a shortage of resources, whether human or material.

Communist Infiltration in America

Christianity has made it possible for the United States to be the multicultural society that it is. It's one nation. But Christianity has been ruined. Now, we believe Christianity will go back to the old days when people will unite. . . .

Look at America. There are two nations in America. Virtually two separate nations in one country. There are state governments and the federal government. They have different laws.

What if some want to secede?

What if Germans got together in one state and Jews in another, and both want to separate from the central government? It will happen, not in a distant future but soon.

Communists will make it happen soon. The Communists will try to agitate by saying, “Why do we have to pay taxes to the federal government?” What are you going to do? What if people agree and say, “We should fight the central government!”?

You might say that will never happen. Do you think the Communists would let it get off that easily? It can happen to one state, then two states, three states, everything will break up. America will break up. There is no guarantee that America will always remain American. There will be new nations.

If you look at the black-white situation, you can see the long shadow of Communist infiltration.

The Communists are convinced that they can overcome America's democratic system through their peace offensive. Militarily, any nation that can surpass America will be able to conquer the whole world easily. Next, they are working on underground organizations to destroy American families. They think winning over America is effortless.

You must know that that's why they concentrate on weakening morality and increasing decadence among the young. You cannot deny that America's withdrawal from world affairs does not help America, but pushes it into greater difficulty.

The Communists want the family destroyed. They are luring good young men and women into taking drugs. To undo the family, in their plan, is to undo the Christian values. This is the crisis as I see it.

Because I know Communism and have been at the forefront in fighting it, what I have seen in American society personally gives me neither optimism nor comfort.

If you ask them, “Now, with what did you play this game?” they will say, “Christianity.” Then, they will say, “Let's destroy Christianity.” They use strategies, psychology, and, finally, physical force. Good Christian families are turning into dens of drug users, which is a strategy used by the Communists.

Free sex can appeal to most youths. The Communists use this strategy to lure the young, with plenty of funds to be used in their organization.

You must understand the underground cell-units of the Communists. You must know that many students coming to America from Latin America are supported by scholarships from the Soviet Union.

Americans have lost their democracy, but keep saying, “Americanize the world!” not realizing that their time has passed. America is being deep-fried; that's the true situation.

How is it in reality? Do you know what percentage of people in America are illegal aliens? (60 percent).

They are mostly from Mexico. Did you know that? When the Communists can enlist these Mexicans to their cause, America is finished. It's critical. I believe over one-third of the Mexican population will be coming to America eventually.

Here is the trouble for America. The Communists infiltrate America, then get in cahoots with the Cubans, and organize underground cell units to attack the Anglo-Saxons.

When the Hispanics are under their control, blacks will join them automatically. What are you going to do when they start a destroy-the-whites campaign? They have already infiltrated the leftist elements.

After the Hispanics are Communized, they will join forces with blacks. Once they start airing their historical grievances, Latin America will join up on their side. What are you going to do, then? Are you going to run to Canada?

What are you going to do? Then all the colored people of Asia will join in.

Their battle cry would be: “White people are our enemy.” I do believe there will be a race war. A new Civil War, a continuation of the original Civil War. What are you going to do? It's a race war, a race war. That's what's left. It will be a major catastrophe. I feel responsible for stopping that from happening.

Who will make it happen? Who? Only the Communists. If they can conquer Africa and Asia, they can play this game at their own pace. Latin America is a busy place. Asia and Africa will fall at the same time. I anticipate this kind of catastrophe for the white race looming.

If we are to warn this world, what kind of warning? Death by illness is nothing by comparison. Illness kills just one person, but Communism kills the whole nation. The United States is under a Communist threat. Indeed, the whole world- in Europe, in Asia, in Latin America, in the Middle East, and in the present United States. Can it be different?

Everyone's hands seem to be tied. America is retreating. Isn't it? It is retreating. (96-168)

Eternal Life
Furthermore, religious people use the words “eternal life.” Eternal life means not just living a lifetime on earth but a lifetime that continues forever.

Communism And Falsehood

Evolutionism

The ancestors of humans are not monkeys. Which being can be the object of God, the only absolute one? Some scholars say it's the monkey, but is that possible?

When you go to the zoo, monkeys are holy, right? Some zoologists say the monkey is the ancestor of humans.

Then ask the scholar, “Sir, who is your grandfather? Is he a monkey? Then you are a descendant of a monkey.” Will he like that? No way. It will turn him off. Would you like a monkey to be your grandfather? What! Humans evolved from amoebas? Biologists and biological professors are saying that monkeys are their grandfathers.

Wicked people are running this world; to take care of that, Rev. Moon of the Unification Church came about. Don't you young guys do that as well? Look! The nature of energy is that the entering energy is never the same as the existing energy. It's a formula.

Always, the entering energy is greater. Do you agree? Perhaps you would learn in physics, even in electrical engineering, that the power that goes into a motor is greater than the power that comes out. It is always like that. When motion occurs, energy is consumed. While motion is going on, do you think it's becoming larger?

Is it becoming minus or plus (larger or smaller)? It is becoming smaller. Then, when an amoeba engages in motion, how could it become a plus? Can a plus come about by itself? No way! What has to be done for it to become a plus?

For it to become a plus, another energy must be invested in it. How could it become a plus by itself so that it becomes a higher functional being than it started as?

Let us compare humans and monkeys. How do monkeys live? All they do is make noise, eat, sleep, and bear babies. Are monkeys shedding tears because they are missing their mother and father in their hometown?

Monkeys and humans are fundamentally different. Is a monkey worrying about the older brother, or does a monkey want to sacrifice for its parents? How about humans? Do they do those things or not? Yes. The seed is different.

Do monkeys get together and talk about what their ancestors have done, or discuss whether there is a God or not? Monkeys can't do that. Do they think about the existence of the spiritual world?

Can they dream about the universe becoming peaceful, a peaceful world, one world, and a blossoming place of love? People who espouse that kind of evolutionism of humans from monkeys are like dogs and pigs. The seed of monkeys is not the same as the seed of humans.

Humans are supposed to live centering on others, not themselves, to live and hope centered on a higher ideal. They are not supposed to live and hope based on a lower ideal. The dimension is different!

Humans have been worshiping God since they were created. There are no tribes who are not worship God. They have been thinking about God and have been thinking about how to improve the universe.

Can monkeys think about that with their brains? Monkeys can't achieve that even by going through thousands of steps. How could that kind of energy content enter monkeys? It doesn't make sense.

Communism has been saying that humans came from material. Is it possible?

Does material possess that kind of thought?

No matter how much human ability one has, everyone has a vision of harmony. Material itself does not have that kind of ability.

The Marxist dialectic maintains that every material being, every part of the existing world, is changing and developing. But to a higher ideal? A mind reaching after higher standards – is it developing and changing?

Can this original character be changing and developing among people in the past days, present day, or thousands of years in the future? Do you think it will change? One can speak of animals and say that a monkey is a higher animal, but can monkeys have that kind of thought?

For thousands of years, or hundreds of millions of years, has any energy been added to monkeys? Can the monkey have that kind of original character? So we can conclude that, unlike the monkey, a great original energy has been given to humans.

The reason an unchanging element, not a changeable element, has been added to humans is so they can become a substantial object to the unchanging Subject. This logic is right! We have that kind of original character, which means that there must be a Subjective real being who also has that kind of original character.

Here we can know the concept of subject and object. Here we can know that I am in an objective relationship to the Subject. Then since Subject being has put in that kind of original character, is that for Himself or for the sake of a higher ideal? That is the question! We can conclude that He invested in hoping for a higher level.

The Life of a True Person
A life of true love simply means living for the sake of others. It is a life of giving to others first, for their sake, before wanting others to give to you, for your sake.

Evolutionism Is A Historical Artifact

When we look at “The Origin of the Species” by Charles Darwin, we find that Darwin justified the fact that historically one power conquers the world and forms a new cultural sphere through the so-called evolutionary principle that “the weak fall prey to the strong”.

Many kinds of crazy things happen. So, what is the origin of the species? Get down to fundamental problems. When we consider whether God exists or not, and if we consider, from today's philosophical viewpoint, the question of which came first – consciousness or being (thought) – there arise some big questions and problems.

What is man's origin? Is the origin of humans from the monkey, or some other starting point? This kind of fundamental problem has to be solved.

Evolutionism has now become a historical artifact; yet, many still espouse the theory of evolution. Can evolution go backwards? Can it happen backwards? Can it go to the East and West?

Who sets the direction of evolution? Can one set oneself in a growth direction? So many levels have to be gone through, from an amoeba to a human. That direction, the direction to go toward higher levels and develop, who sets the direction to be that way? Why is it that it happens at a higher level?

Can it go downward and sideways?

The woman looks like a man, or a man looks like a woman; in other words, both ways can happen. One can be in front, the other can be behind; this idea can come out. Direction. Who sets the direction that a woman has to be this way, and a man has to be that way? Is that decided by men, women?

What about our ancestors?

They didn't decide; the universe decided. There has to be some kind of central will of the universe. The subject of that will be God. God decided that man should be this way, and woman should be that way.

The Communist way is to adopt nature to natural law. But adoption without fundamental understanding? Someone should hit and capture these guys. Without adding energy, something bigger can't come out. A higher-level being cannot develop from amoebae by itself.

For a higher level being to come about, there has to be motion and some kind of power and energy from outside; the direction has to be connected. In other words, the power has to be connected, and the motion has to occur based on the relationship between the subject and the object.

Subject and object do not engage in action as an absolute minus, they only engage in action as a plus. The relationship between subject and object has always been a relative relation.

So, to develop from amoebae, there has to be a cooperation strategy of give and take while adding something, or there has to be some other factor that leads to development. Through that, the higher level can be produced. Without that, no development can come about.

In other words, for anything to develop to a higher level, there needs to be a second energy. After that, there also needs to be purpose and direction. For evolution to occur, there needs to be direction.

Direction is necessary, and has to be known. There should also be a final point of decision, which is the purpose. The understanding of purpose is necessary. That is an important question.

The next question is that of power. Look at the formula of power.

Is there such a formula? In man, is entering energy and existing energy the same?

Energy comes in and functions. So, do you think the energy remaining after motion and entering energy for engaging in motion will be the same?

Here consumption should occur, don't you think?

When you exercise, you consume energy, right? That's why the amount of entering and exiting energy is not the same. The size of energy is always smaller after engaging in motion.

Evolutionists say the energy is greater after the engaging action. There is no such formula. When that happens, the world will turn upside down. That's why you need a second energy source. To accomplish a larger purpose, there needs to be a second energy.

The second energy is possible when the subject and object become one. It's right.

It's logical. Don't you think so? When the subject and object are there, the greater energy comes about. Right?

That's why God made the relationship between subject and object to advance through its objective form and provide new value and purpose, so it can develop to higher levels. Because the Principle of Creation is like that, the universe could be formed from small material.

A Turning Point History
Despite our very busy schedules, we have come together because we feel the urgency of the times and see the problems of the world as our own.

To Say The World Was Born Naturally Is False

Today's Communist society says that man was created through evolution. Then how did animals get born before they became human? That is a problem. How did the monkey get born? Think about this world.

How did this world come about?

Today's scientists or Communists are saying that these “came out naturally”, but it's a deception. How did nature come about? Where did it come from? How did all creation come about?

How did it exist without being created?

Communists are saying it just naturally came about. Did a piano also just come about by itself? It's fully scientific!

How did a microphone come about?

It just came out (laughter). Our body is the palace of mystery; it's so mysterious that millions of medical doctors couldn't figure it out completely. So when you are asked, “How did your body come about? You can answer, “It just happened to come about.”

Nature has very scientific elements, so nature itself is the same as God. In conclusion, nothing could come about without a cause. To adapt the theory of evolution, for higher-level begins to come about, the amoebae, while they engage in production, have to have other energy added. That energy becomes plus.

Then can the amoebae themselves generate this plus power? Can amoebas themselves add energy?

Do they have that kind of ability? No.

To be moved to a higher level, greater energy has to be added. If they cannot create energy, then from where and how does it appear? Is Logos established? (No.)

Can Mr. Kim or Mr. Park handle Muhammad Ali easily? To handle him, they would need more energy; otherwise, they couldn't go beyond the boundary.

Can Mr. Park take care of Ali because he has gained sudden energy through mutation? Can he do that? (No.) It's only possible when he receives some kind of injection, or consumes ginseng extract, etc.

So he can have explosive, dynamic energy. But by himself, he can't generate that. So I can't advance myself. That is the logical conclusion.

Unification Thought
According to True Father, a world based on the culture of heart entails the unification of thought and value perspectives.

Criticism Of Evolution Centered On Man

Human life has an objective cause like other life in the universe. Life forms, from microorganisms through to higher animals have been created based on the model of man.

Evolution is merely a viewpoint based on the result. Man, who is a purposeful being, was bound from the beginning to be created. With that in mind, the universe came about. From microorganisms to higher animals, we are all created through a principled procedure.

Critique of the Doctrine of Evolution Centering on Humans

Since human beings are born and have life, then they have a cause of that birth and life, just like any other living thing in the universe. In fact, God created every existing being based on the image or pattern of human beings, from minerals to the higher animals. From this understanding, the traditional theory of the evolution of life is based on looking at nothing but the resultant effect.

Because the universe and all things were created according to the pattern of human beings, then from the beginning, the universe was created with the limitations of humans.

Every existing being, from microorganisms to the higher animals, is connected by the principal process of creating according to the human model. From this viewpoint, the development of creation did not occur unconsciously but was based on a clear purpose of creation.

Therefore, every created thing came into being based on having a purpose of existence. Every being has dual purposes of existence: an external purpose and an internal purpose. Human beings are no exception. We have the purpose of the body and the purpose of the mind.

Why do human beings have dual purposes?

That would seem to only create problems. However, because both the world of external matter and the world of the internal mind exist, human beings as the center of the universe cannot help but have dual purposes, to connect the two worlds.

These dual purposes should not be in conflict or separate from each other, but should become one. It is in harmonizing and unifying the dual purposes that our ideal of existence as human beings can be realized.

For the dual purposes to become one, we should establish order between them, an order that results in one unified purpose, which is the completion of human beings. Such a completed man and a completed woman relate in one income.

Why should a man and a woman have to become one?

Before talking about this issue, we should consider Darwin's theory of evolution.

Evolution cannot occur without some action that advances beings forward and makes them become one. Because evolution itself is not the cause but instead the result, for evolution to occur, there should be some force that causes the evolution.

The force would try to advance two beings forward and combine them. Thus, evolution occurs based on a force that tries to advance two beings to a higher level.

Then, who made that force?

Because evolution is the result, evolution itself cannot make a direction to advance to a higher level. There must be some force that causes evolution. That force gives direction to evolution. Then, why does the force have a direction? A direction cannot be made without any purpose.

Thus, unless an existing being has a consciousness of its purpose, it cannot have direction. If there is no purpose, the direction moves as it wishes. Therefore, for two existing beings to develop a higher being, they have to be moved by a force to try to advance and combine. Therefore, for evolution to occur, existing beings have to have direction and purpose.

Evolution cannot occur by itself. It requires a relative relationship. Furthermore, for some action to occur, both sides must benefit by becoming bigger. If both sides become smaller, then the action cannot occur. You should know this principle.

The reason a man and woman try to join with each other, centering on love, is not because they want to suffer a loss. They love each other, expecting to attain some higher development.

Therefore, the action of love is given for the sake of the other person. The direction of love is for the sake of the other. Only a direction for the sake of the other person can help each person develop further.

Moreover, everything is formed by the purpose of living for the sake of each other. Therefore, action has dual characteristics, direction has dual characteristics, and purpose also has dual characteristics. (93:173)

Initiatives for Unification
I have a plan to invite renowned people from around the world to an exquisite resort to discuss current global issues. Mt. Geumgang should be designed as this venue and developed as a world-class resort.

The Purpose of Existence Preexists the Existing Being

The dialectic does not admit direction and purpose. It does not deal with the fundamental problem of action.

The dialectic did not deal with why existing beings try to act, and why they try to become one. Because the dialectic does not have direction centered deliberately, the development of the dialectic is centered on itself. In the dialectic, an existent being develops toward a bigger one.

In explaining the process of evolution by the dialectic, what cannot be understood is explained by mutation. Then, why does the mutation occur? What is the cause of the action, direction, and purpose of mutation? The mutation itself cannot be the cause of any action, direction, or pose.

When a man and woman love each other today, can the direction, action, and purpose of their love be different from those of our ancestors' love in ancient times? No!

Then why doesn't mutation occur in human beings' love?

If evolution has developed continuously until now, why did it stop at the stage of humans? If the doctrine of evolution is right, then evolution would develop beyond the stage of humans.

Why did it stop with humans?

That is the problem. Is it because humans wanted to stop at this stage? Is it possible that evolution is stopped by humans' thinking? No! A human being cannot decide the position of his existence by himself, he is in a position that was predestined before his creation.

That proves that consciousness preexisted creation in the universe. Human beings cannot explain even the origin of their eyes. Neither the dialectic nor the doctrine of evolution can explain that.

You will have to fight against communism shortly. We have to destroy the theory of the dialectic and the doctrine of evolution. When we destroy only the doctrine of evolution, then the dialectic will be destroyed naturally.

What is the present crucial issue?

The problem of which came first: consciousness or matter. Communists consider matter to be coming first and therefore having the highest value. On the other hand, the democratic world thinks consciousness came first.

Our eyes consist of matter. By whom were the eyes made? Those who think that eyes were made by themselves must be crazy. Furthermore, the nose doesn't move around, but the eyes do.

When a person is asked why the eyes move around, if he answers because they want to, then he may be an evolutionist or a materialist. The purpose of the eyes is to see. Therefore, because their purpose is to see, their eyes move around.

To fulfill their purpose, eyes move. Why does a person blink their eyes? Because water evaporates, the eyes blink into the air. O. to the other hand, a person's nose does not move even if dust becomes attached to it.

What is the purpose of eyelashes?

It is to prevent dust from getting in the eyes. Why were eyelashes created as they are?

Because they wanted to become like that? (Laughter.) It is not a simple matter, as some may think. If someone here says it is, I will scold him, saying, “Such a crazy fellow! Shut up!”

Thus, when the eyes first open, would they know that the universe exists? “There is the sun, and because there is air too, then dust particles would rise and water would evaporate.”

Would the eyes know such things at first?

Please answer. (No, they wouldn't.) So, if people can say that eyes evolved by the dialectical development to be able to adjust to the environment, even though the eyes did not know about the condition of the environment, then such people must be crazy indeed.

The purpose of the eyes preexisted the eyes. That is, eyes were made to be able to adapt themselves to the environment before they emerged. Therefore, which came first between matter or consciousness? (Consciousness!)

Regarding the problem of the origin of human beings, they did not evolve by a developing cause within human beings themselves – what is called human consciousness.

There must have been a prior fundamental action, direction, and purpose in the creation of human beings. Neither humans nor any other existing being evolved and developed as they wished.

They must have come into existence as substantial bodies having definite purpose, action, and direction.

Then why were humans born as the highest animal?

They were born witty to have accomplished the position of the' highest animal, and they were born with the direction to have to go in as the highest animal. You should know this. (93:176)
