The completion-stage seven-year course
The first seven-year course is the period in which we need to carry out the work of connecting a perfected man to a perfected woman, that is, Mother. This is the period of setting up the family standard of the Parents.
So, during this time, Parents formed a family centering on God. Only then was I able to construct a family based on this earth, which is the restoration of the four-position foundation. Centering on the Parents' family, the blessed families need to unite completely.
The period in which they have to do this is the second seven-year course. The second seven-year course is the period during which, centering on the Parents' family, the families that have received the Blessing need to unite completely, thus forming the unified realm of Abel. They then have to establish a standard that people can recognize. (075-010, 1975.01.01)
The beginning of the age when you could attend Mother in 1960 marked the completion of the Old Testament Age and the realm of the Bride in Jesus' age.
After this, going beyond the standard of the Fall at the top of the growth stage, we must cross over the third seven-year course to achieve the world-level standard of completion.
That is why the 21-year period of formation, growth, and completion in Adam's family, the three seven-year courses from 1960 until 1981, centering on True Parents' family, were conditions that had to be set on earth.
That course of 21 years was the condition to transcend the 6,000 years of history from the age of Adam through the age of Jesus to the age of the Lord at the Second Coming. All vertical conditions need to be settled horizontally. (266-063, 1994.12.11)

What has God been doing for the past 6,000 years?
What has been His unchanging desire throughout history? It has been to find the one person, True Mother. It is to find her through Adam, after re-creating him and sending him to Earth. This is a re-creation.
Originally, God created Adam and then created Eve from Adam; therefore, for re-creation, Adam has to come to earth first and then find Eve. In other words, he must find and establish Mother to this, during the first seven-year course, I had to put Mother on a path that would enable her to break away from any condition by which Satan's world could accuse her.
This means that she does not need to fight directly with Satan; instead, Mother just has to have absolute faith in me and always unite with me. Then Satan cannot invade her.
Adam lost Eve because he failed to fulfill his responsibility. Thus, it is Adam who must set the standard of victory by restoring his position about Eve as well as bringing Satan to submission.
I am fulfilling this purpose during these seven years. Moreover, having established this standard, I have to raise Mother, in the position of Eve, to that standard in heart and spirit. This is how we can reverse through indemnity the failure of the fallen parents and secure the foundation of the True Parents. (017-322, 1967.04.10)
Had Adam and Eve not fallen, they would have completed this first seven-year course. This was the path they were required to follow to become the True Parents.
Therefore, no matter what accusations Satan threw against us, Mother and I had to make a breakthrough during this period. I paved this path, leading the way as the representative of the family during the first seven-year course.
During this period, we, Father and Mother, had to unravel all the tangles of history. In particular, this seven-year course was the time when I had to reverse Eve's dominion over Adam and completely secure Adam's authority.
For this, I had to educate Eve. In other words, during this period, I had to educate Mother in such a way that she would set a standard of absolute obedience and compliance before me, even at the cost of her life. (073-245, 1974.09.22)
From the principled perspective, there is the indirect dominion and the direct dominion. In this period, the indirect dominion and the direct dominion must be linked, and the perfected Adam must connect with and establish God's direct dominion. So the seven-year course is the time during which seven years of indemnity are completed. (143-180, 1986.03.18)
Vertical history must be restored horizontally through indemnity. The history of 6,000 years corresponds to the seven-year course. The 6,000 years are indemnified in seven years, and 6,000 years plus 1,000 years combined into seven years are the seven years of indemnity.
Because this is the formula, all fallen people, whoever they are, must go through a seven-year course. If you cross over this period successfully, anything is possible. (021-211, 1968.11.20)
During the period of the first seven-year course, we, the Parents, struggled internally before heaven and earth. We paid indemnity to clear up all the tangled bitterness and sorrow that originated from the Fall.
This was the period when we could resolve and clear up all the historical circumstances in the area of lineage that arose from Adam and Eve's mistake.
To move forward, we had to sort out relationships that could be offered to Heaven, offered for the sake of the Will, not only in mind but also in body. This is how we were finally able to complete the first seven-year course, and True Parents could appear in this world victoriously. (077-215, 1975.04.12)
The Unification Church has passed through the initial three-year period of the first seven-year course that began in 1960. The number three is the number for finding children, and the number four is the number for restoring material things. We have successfully carried out this first task.
We prevailed during these three years and laid the foundation to advance to the world. Upon this foundation, we need to restore the Second Israel. Therefore, the remaining four years are the period during which we need to work hard for the restoration of the people.
Exerting all our energy, we have to work diligently and victoriously to restore people and territory. You are doing in four years what I did in 40 years. In the future, even the matter of taking down the Unification Church signboard will depend on you.
Instead of a Unification Church, we have to make a united Korea, and on that foundation, we have to make a united world. If you cannot fulfill this responsibility, I will have to get another nation to do it. (013-091, 1963.10.22)
True Mother's victory in the seven-year course
It was not easy for us to secure the family of True Parents. We had to rise to the highest position in the world, passing the formation, growth, and completion stages.
There was a seven-year course to reach the completion stage. Adam and Eve fell at the completion level of the growth stage, so we had to walk a seven-year course starting from that point.
Until the establishment of God's Day on January 1, 1968, Mother had to travel an arduous path as a woman. She passed Heaven's tests without any problem, and this is why she could become what she is today, our amazing True Mother. (170-034, 1987.11.01)
Mother's mission was to have unshakable confidence in her husband, regardless of the circumstances. Whatever happened, even if she should die, she had to keep an unchangeable attitude toward her husband. That must be her commitment, even if the nation opposes her.
Eve fell into a position Heaven could not trust, and because Eve made Adam fall, Adam could not trust a woman 100 percent.
Therefore, Mother had to maintain a firm position in which Heaven, God, and her husband could have 100 percent confidence. For the first time in history, when God and man could trust a woman 100 percent, God's Day could be established. Do you understand?
That was January 1, 1968. To restore the standard of restoration by indemnity for both men and women, Eve had to go through the completion stage from the top of the growth stage.
Upon entering the eighth year, after completing her seven-year course, Mother and I could obtain Heaven's seal as a true, perfected family, and we could take our position on earth. (113-140, 1981.05.01)
After seven years and the beginning of the first day of the first month of the new year of 1968, the entire path of indemnity has been overcome, and God's Day has been established.
The authority of the mother has emerged, and the era of settlement on this earth has come. We are advancing to a global level now. After undergoing the three-year course in the 1970s, the standards for the nation and the world could be transcended, linking the foundation of the people with the foundation for the Bride that Jesus was unable to establish, which was completed on the foundation of the tribe and race. This paves the way for indemnity to move on to the world level. (162-233, 1987.04.14)
To dissolve bitter pain and sorrow, indemnity must be paid, and there must be complete restoration. I went through a course of struggle to restore and perfect Adam and laid the foundation for his victory; hence, I can stand tall as a man.
Likewise, for Mother to stand tall as a woman, she, as Eve, must go through the course of restoration through indemnity.
This requires her to undergo a course of battles in heart, in body, and faith that no one else can fathom. The path that Mother had to pioneer was as dangerous as walking a tightrope.
While she was completing that indemnity by the end of her first seven-year course, we instituted Parents' Day, Children's Day, and Day of All Things. Then, on January 1, 1968, we welcomed God's Day.
Thereby, Mother finally qualified as the original woman on earth and stood in a position equal to mine on the family level. (059-284, 1972.07.27)
