The gates to the kingdom of heaven
True Parents came to Earth to sever the false lineage of fallen humankind.
They brought victory in all stages of the providence of restoration. They removed the boundaries that blocked the connections between Earth and the spirit world, and they prepared a highway that reaches from the earthly world to the heavenly world.
Because of that, True Parents said that if we love them and come to love humankind even more than we love True Parents, we will be able to travel the direct path that reaches from earth to heaven.
True Parents arrived safely in the original central position where they could, realize God's ideal of creation. They have opened wide the gate of the kingdom of heaven on earth and the kingdom of heaven in heaven.
1. God has not been able to work directly in the spirit world. Instead, God motivated angels, saints, and good ancestors to perform His work. If He could have worked directly, the Fall would never have happened.
True Parents are the ones who are building the bridge that allows God to be able to work directly. True Parents came to earth and are solving completely the reality of false parents.
God comes down to earth on the foundation of this purification from the individual level to the cosmic level, and He is conducting His activity centering on that completed foundation. (323-232, 2000/06/03)
2. At the Second Advent, the one who is coming is the perfected Adam. Provided Eve becomes one centering on the perfected Adam, she will become a perfected Eve. Mother has come, and she is doing the spiritual work of indemnity to fulfill that task herself.
True Parents completed the creation of Adam and Eve on the world level, so, with all men standing in the man's position and all women standing in the woman's position, we are entering the age of the ideal family in which they are equal, centering on love.
Everything that blocked heaven and earth and east and west has been removed, and we have returned to the innate, original standard. Now there is only one path you must take.
You have only one way to enter the kingdom of heaven; it is following True Parents. Satan surrendered, and all obstacles of Satan's world disappeared. After you become one and move the nation, the kingdom of heaven on earth and in heaven will be achieved by your unity with True Parents in front of God.
(310-286, 1999/07/27)
3. Adam and Eve are the only sons and only daughters representing countless generations in front of God.
Even in our society, at the death of an only son who had come after six previous generations of only sons, the Korean government sends a gift to console the bereaved family.
However, until now, has anyone consoled God, who lost His only son and daughter in all eternity? Only I am comforting God, who bears the sorrow of the Fall, while He says, “Please follow me. Please follow the path I am taking.”
After pioneering that path, you must break down the gates of hell and open the gates to heaven. You must make it so that God can come and go at His discretion. You must completely break down the walls of hell, that place of bitter sorrow. You must liberate God.
I destroyed the blockage of hell that has barred the way between the heavenly world and the earthly world. Now you have to build an expressway. Establish the standards for this, not only on Earth but also in the spirit world. There must be standards set for the family, tribe, people, nation, and entire cosmos. That will come about by men and women creating families. (302-227, 1999/06/14)
4. Because the grace of the Blessing has reached from top to bottom, all the way down to earth, we are connecting to the age of the spirit world Blessing. Provided we make that heaven-to-earth connection, restoration will be possible.
Until now, after a loving husband and wife finished life on earth, they became separated when they went to the spirit world. Each entered the spirit world according to his or her standard.
After going to the spirit world, when they pressed a video button, everything about how they lived on Earth was revealed.
Everything was recorded. An angel would take them to the place that corresponded to their spiritual standard. If ten members of a family had different spiritual standards, they had to separate.
They could not meet each other.
Now they have been liberated from that. The ones in the spirit world who once loved each other on earth can now receive the Blessing. We have given the Blessing to spirit people. The gate has been opened and, for that reason, the liberation of hell is possible.
Thus, we have established the standard whereby we can say we have completed the foothold of the kingdom of heaven by creating a one-way path to the kingdom of heaven, the innate, original, unfallen world.
So we are digging up all the individuals and families that were divided on earth and weaving them together globally. After the realm of unification in the kingdom of heaven on earth and the kingdom of heaven in heaven was accomplished utilizing fitting all of them together at one time, the age has arrived when God can be liberated. (283-146, 1997/04/08)
5. I loved my enemies all my life. I did so at the levels of the individual, family, tribe, people, nation, and world, and finally at the level of the cosmos. Why did I enter Danbury Prison?
There was a barrier blocking both the spiritual world and the physical world. I had to pave the road not only to the highest realm of the spirit world but also to hell, to unravel what fallen parents entangled. Therefore, when I was in Danbury, I established conditions by having special prayers with Mother.
Since then, the walls surrounding hell have been destroyed and the path has emerged by which anyone who makes the effort can go up to the kingdom of heaven. If you have good spirits among your relatives in the spirit world, you can educate them, pull them u,p and send them off.
The part spirits play in salvation has been set in motion. The Savior's role existed only on earth, but by preparing this direct path, the way is now open for good spirits in the spirit world to educate evil spirits who are in hell. These good ancestors play a part in the Savior's role, and the path is open where evil spirits can be resurrected fully. (136-187, 1985/12/22)
6. In one generation, I pioneered a highway to the spirit world from the individual level to the world level.
In Danbury on February 1, 1985, I proclaimed the Day of Opening the Gates to Heaven. We must open the gate that connects a highway from the world on earth to the heavenly world. That highway must be built starting at the very bottom, from the most difficult place.
The new origin of all history arises from prison. It is like that even in this world. Revolutionaries open new paths while in prison. Similarly, we must build the highway from the very bottom of the prison.
If there is hell, a path will arise on which a man and a woman can go, even from hell. It is the same on Earth. True Parents are opening paths that were blocked and partitioned off by the false parents.
The blockages perpetuated by connections of lineage, based on the love of the false parents, are opened by inheriting the lineage of the new Blessing, based on the love of the True Parents. (166-243, 1987/06/07)
7. While in Danbury Prison, I opened wide the doors of heaven and hell and opened wide even the doors of hell on earth. When I left Danbury Prison, all countries north, south, east, and west could connect, centered on the Unification Church family and me. Intending to create that foundation, I had to send my beloved Heung-jin, True Parents' son, to the spirit world to save the spirit world.
In the position of a sacrificial offering centering on heaven and earth, there was no one but Heung-jin who could go to the spirit world from the realm of True Parents' love.
Denominations based on Jesus have been divided according to ethnicity. Heung-jin destroyed those walls and drew one line along which people could gather. Just as water collects in one place and flows along a line through a hole to another place, so also the spirit world is visiting Earth through the path of love created by Jesus and Heung-jin.
Originally, good ancestors in the spirit world were to follow the line of original, innate love, and now the bridge has appeared by which they can come and go using that love. (169-204, 1987/10/31)
8. In the natural world, you are guided on the path to the kingdom of heaven not only by True Parents but also by angels.
True Parents' guidance is not just through the Divine Principle. Since True Parents prepared the path, they made it so that you can follow this path based on your love for True Parents.
While following that path, if you come to love humankind more than you love True Parents, from the position of loving True Parents, all will go well for you on that path.
You will encounter no obstacles, and it will not be a narrow road. You will take the main street of heart that leads to the highway, and you will be allowed to go to the kingdom of heaven directly from earth. (140-058, 1986/02/01)
9. What gift will you bring to God when you enter the spirit world? That is an issue I am facing too. You worked not only for the country that God wanted but also for the world. You lived for the sake of the next generation, who will be able to build the ideal society and the ideal world. You loved the way God loves.
Because you did that, even when you go to the spirit world, it will be natural. It will just be an extension of your physical life; you will live in the same way as before.
You are doing the work that God is doing, and since God is doing that work, results emerge. Just like you, to go to a place close to God, I too must do that work. Then God will even say, “My country is your country.” (205-212, 1990/09/02)
10. True Parents are cleaning up everything that the false parents created. Before True Parents enter the spirit world, they must make the conditions that will allow everything to become better.
They must set the conditions to liberate from their sins all the criminals who are in the prisons of the earthly world and the spirit world. They must open the gates of hell in the earthly world and open the way for the spirits there to be able to go to the heavenly world.
When you go to the spirit world, you will be educated following your conscience and the degree of your faith. True Parents must set up a system in the spirit world to teach about the Divine Principle and the ideal world.
The ones who know both of these are educated and restored quickly within days, based on the level of the group to which they belong. As a result, the world will be unified. The kingdom of heaven on earth and the kingdom of heaven in heaven are the beginning. Even Satan must be liberated. (293-273, 1998/06/02)
11. True Parents must destroy the walls of hatred and resentment among people throughout history.
They are not doing this work while sitting on thrones as the sovereigns of a nation. Since humankind is living in hell on earth, and people are suffering in hell in the spirit world, True Parents must open all the gates of hell on earth and in the spirit world, connect individuals to the nation and world, and construct a road, so people can pass from earth to the heavenly world. They must create a connecting highway, one road, which is the mainstream.
Your mind and body should become one, and from that standard of unity, when you pass through the stages of the family, tribe, people, and nation, and go beyond that to the world and into the heavenly realm, there should be no walls. We must destroy all barriers.
The opening of the gates of hell in the spirit world, and the gates to the kingdom of heaven, is the final problem. After going to the bitter end of earthly hell, you open the gates there.
If after standing at the gates of hell in the spirit world, you do not open those gates, you will not be able to enter the kingdom of heaven. Only people who triumph over hell can enter the kingdom of heaven.
By what means are they victorious? Not using prayer. They must gain victory by possessing the love of God. If they do not, they cannot enter the kingdom of heaven. To help you, after passing through earth centering on the love of God and opening even the gates of hell in the heavenly world, I have paved a road from earth to heaven. (140-043, 1986/02/01)
12. There is no path apart from the teachings of True Parents that can solve your fundamental problems, which have come to you through historical connections. You will never solve them without education.
Please go to the spirit world to see if I am telling a lie. I am teaching what your conscience already knows. I have accomplished and gained victory in everything through the proclamation of True Parents and the Completed Testament Age.
Because I confronted Satan and caused his surrender, Satan no longer can appear in the world where True Parents are. A smoothing out, a connecting process is taking place from the level of the individual to the family, tribe, people, nation, world and cosmos, straight to the kingdom of heaven in the spirit world.
When we connect after equalizing all of those, we will be in the kingdom of heaven on earth. People and their relatives who live in the kingdom of heaven on earth will naturally transition to the kingdom of heaven in heaven, just as they are. The kingdom of heaven in heaven is one's original home. (256-025, 1994/03/12)
13. The Principle is the truth that can unite the spiritual world and the physical world. Heaven is innately in the plus position, whereas Earth is originally in the position of the minus.
Total development is possible from the position where these two become one. Nobody has understood the concept of world history from a providential viewpoint. After the True Parents came to earth, they worked to thoroughly clean up the world of fallen Adam, perfect it, and connect it to the kingdom of heaven.
God's connection with Adam is the original and innate foundation. This connection determines the chosen people of Israel. The people of Israel must expand and spread to all humankind. The family emerges from there. As soon as the family of Adam is settled, the fallen families will collapse.
There is nothing apart from the Blessing that can cause this change. When families that have received the Blessing are established on earth, their ancestors and parents will come to participate in the Blessing.
When ideal families settle on earth and expand to the whole world, that will be the kingdom of heaven on earth. When that kingdom of heaven on earth is completed, the kingdom of heaven in heaven is automatically accomplished.
(292-214, 1998/04/17)
14. Only True Parents can clear up the spirit world and the earthly world and complete the ideal, the kingdom of heaven on earth and in heaven. The era of God's all-transcendence, omnipresence, omnipotence, and all-immanence has come.
We can establish a general organization for the world as well as for each country.
Satan's all-powerful world is completely ineffective in front of God's authority, and we are passing into the era of God's absolute authority and power. True Parents are the ones who are doing that. It starts with True Parents.
(293-326, 1998/06/07)
15. You must live attending the Parents of Heaven and Earth. The spiritual world and the physical world are not two separate worlds. They are one world where you live after harmonizing your mind and body.
When you create the kingdom of heaven on earth in this way, the kingdom of heaven in heaven is achieved automatically. When you enter, your family and nation can enter. Using many nations being liberated, you will be able to live attending God, the owner of the nation. (393-088, 2002/09/29)
16. The sphere of True Parents' activity is not limited to Earth. Because I am concerned about the vast spirit world, even to the ends of that world, if there is a shadow of Satan anywhere, I must eradicate it. It is not enough to pay indemnity in the same way as before.
Now True Parents need to settle accounts. I must restore the failures of Adam and Eve, the failures at Jesus' time, the cosmic failures, and all that was defiled by Satan. After causing Satan to surrender, I will give the command that can liquidate these debts. At that point, the perfected kingdom of heaven on earth and in heaven will become possible.
That is the logic of true love. (397-208, 2002/11/24)
17. The Enthronement Ceremony for the Kingship of God fulfilled the hopes of the religious world. It fulfilled all the goals of the providence of salvation.
The ideal of creation shall be achieved, re-creating all things, giving birth to men and women, producing blessed families, and realizing an ideology of a realm free from the Fall, the kingdom of heaven on earth and in heaven. It is not just some individuals or families but all human beings who become liberated, blessed central families.
The empty kingdom of heaven can be filled all at once. In other words, all the historical failures can be restored according to the horizontal standard. This restoration will patch up the empty places. The ideal kingdom of heaven is being built on earth as well as in heaven. God can stride throughout the spirit world and earth at His discretion. (346-239, 2001/07/01)
Liberating and blessing people in the spirit world
On the foundation of the cosmic victorious realm of Heung-jin nim and Daemonim in the spirit world, True Parents brought about the removal of evil spirits through the spiritual work at Cheongpyeong that began on January 19, 1995.
They bestowed the grace of the liberation of people in the spirit world from February 12, 1999, and the grace of ancestor Blessing from December 12, 1999. can the grace of the Blessing that liquidates the lineage of the Fall for spirit individuals, all humankind has come to live in the age of cosmic liberation.
18. Large numbers of spirits enter the body of each person. The spiritual work at Cheongpyeong removes these spirits, and beams of light treated by True Parents guide those spirits, enabling them to ascend upward from hell in the spirit world. Anyone can follow those beams of light.
Good spirits are all able to do that. I am opening the path whereby they will be able to ascend. I am completely removing those walls and conditions, opening doors of liberation. Because of that, spirits can go to the kingdom of heaven in a short time.
Now, because many people are contacting evil spirits and are suffering harm, we must completely sever this connection and sweep away all the evil spirits. Through the Fall of Adam's family, it became an evil family.
We must do the spiritual work of recreating our ancestors. We must make families that are in the position of good archangels. We are entering the age of liberating and giving the Blessing to those in the spirit world. We are giving many blessings of enormous value. (298-212, 1999/01/08)
19. The Cheongpyeong Training Center is the base that will set you free from evil spirits. This training center exists even in the spirit world. Through it, you must solve the sins you committed on earth that are not yet indemnified.
If you become one with True Parents and indemnify your sins, you will not go to the training center when you go to the spirit world but will directly enter the kingdom of heaven.
You must become parents who give birth to children who can enter the kingdom of heaven, thus creating people who can go directly to the kingdom of heaven.
Now I have completely settled the accounts for the age of restoration through indemnity. From now on, since your sons and daughters must go straight to the kingdom of heaven if your children cannot go there, you also will have to wait outside on the threshold. You will wait until the debt caused by sin is completely canceled.
That's the problem. Instead of hell, a prison for blessed families will be made in the spirit world. Paradise will arise where blessed families who cannot pass over the threshold to enter the kingdom of heaven will wait. You will have to wait until the time when you are liberated in the spirit world from the sins your children have committed.
Despite being blessed, a sinful person cannot enter the kingdom of heaven. The debt caused by your sins first must be completely canceled. Everything I am saying about the spirit world is accurate. We must live our lives the right way; excuses are not allowed. (424-104, 2003/11/04)
20. When you go to the Cheongpyeong Training Center, you must participate in ancestor liberation ceremonies and Blessing ceremonies.
Provided your ancestors are liberated and blessed quickly, as blessed ancestors in the angelic world they will do the work of protecting the blessed families on earth.
Accordingly, there will be no hardships on earth, and you will escape from the realm where Satan can invade. If you do not do that, you cannot escape, and you will remain as you are in Satan's world. (320-118, 2000/03/31)
21. You blessed families are tribal messiahs. You need to liberate your relatives in the spirit world and the physical world. You have that responsibility. For the sake of your ancestors, establish the same kind of indemnity conditions you set when you married.
If you do not do so, you will not be able to mobilize the angels or summon your ancestors. We are pulling people out of hell. Angels have been sent to pull them out. (310-097, 1999/06/06)
22. You must think that you will go to the spirit world and report as my beloved Heung-jin has done. The spirit world and earth are liberated when you and Heung-jin become one as siblings on earth.
Your life on earth is valuable. You know the reality of the spirit world where he was sent, and you know you must clean up your accounts on earth. That means to offer indemnity.
The spirit world is mine and the earth is also mine. True Parents and Heung-jin became one, and you and Heung-jin are becoming one as siblings. Straighten up the spirit world through your oneness with True Parents.
Once God, Heung-jin, and the spirit world become one, blessed families can settle down on earth for the first time. From this united group will grow the one great family of the kingdom of heaven on earth. (424-100, 2003/11/04)
23. You must hasten to liberate and bless your ancestors. Only then will your ancestors and my beloved Heung-jin be able to come again to earth and cooperate with you. Because the lineal standard exists up to age 16, based on Adam before the Fall, while you bless your ancestors, the angelic world is restored and the fallen world is completely liberated.
Because the archangel made a mistake in the position of the older brother, we have to reverse that which caused the destruction of the family and pass through the place of indemnity.
We must receive the cooperation of the spirit world. We must reverse the positions of the older brother and the younger brother; the older brother becomes the younger brother. (424-102, 2003/11/04)
24. All people descended from Adam, but because of the Fall, they went to the spirit world with the lineage of the archangels. We should not abandon the spirit people who came about in the Cain form. We must bless everyone. After blessing them, we have to establish the horizontal line.
We should gather and bless people who died before they could get married. Furthermore, spirits who died as infants should grow up and be blessed. Youths 16 and older who enter the spirit world without having been married shall also be blessed.
In the spirit world, we, True Parents, have blessed 1.6 billion couples from among those who died young or died single. The number of those who have received the Blessing is increasing.
For example, we have Blessings of 1 billion couples, 10 billion couples, and 12 billion couples. We are giving the Blessing on the foundation of the unmarried men and women on earth.
Just as evil spirits become attached to and enter people on earth, good spirits also enter people and coach them. We can expel evil spirits who have entered men and women so that good spirits who received the Blessing can supervise the earth and protect us.
Because of that, as soon as they hear about the Blessing, young people will come to receive it. You must create an environment that inspires and attracts them to do that. (301-211, 1999/05/01)
25. The spiritual works at Cheongpyeong reunite the archangel and Adam and Eve who were separated in the Garden of Eden. We are carrying out a movement to purify Satan's fallen lineage.
Because the people who have gone through the spiritual process at Cheongpyeong are purified, we are giving them spiritual Blessing. Since the conclusion of the Blessing of 3.6 million couples, my beloved Heung-jin and Daemonim have been giving the Blessing at the Cheongpyeong Training Center.
They gave the Blessing from the position of spiritual parents. Since this work was left unfinished by Jesus, working from the substantial archangel realm, I am cleansing everything to do with Adam and Eve, who had fallen away from the spiritual standard and I am substantially restoring the spiritual standard. We are indemnifying the body of Adam having become the body of Satan, enveloped in the substantial archangelic realm, at age 16.
Engrafted through love, we are the body of True Parents. Historically, impure love unfolded, but we are establishing an affirmative standard of love. Heung-jin is doing that work. Jesus could not connect to the love of True Parents, but True Parents' children in the spirit world are in an internal position to connect that which was divided because Jesus could not marry.
Daemonim is also doing that work, through mother-son cooperation. Her position is that of Mary who gave birth to Jesus. Because the responsibility of Mary is now fulfilled, we can give new life to Jesus. (290-178, 1998/02/22)
26. Because I proclaimed the Realm of Cosmic Sabbath of the Parents of Heaven and Earth, we can make a home on this earth and live.
Because there is an individual's home, a family's home, a tribe's home, a people's home, a nation's home, the world's home, and the home of heaven and earth, we can live here. If we pursue this activity, and if we resolve to bring the entire earthly world to a global level of liberation, God will descend.
Thereafter, the angelic realm will descend, and we will appear leading our good ancestors. Our good ancestors are the older siblings in the angelic position. Angels do not have a body or a family. The fallen Satan does not have a family. However, your ancestors differ from the archangel.
They inherit the body of Adam, and we have come into the age where they can have a family.
Accordingly, we are giving the Blessing to our ancestors in heaven together with the Blessing on earth. (305-011, 1998/03/29)
