The Universal Peace Federation and the Abel UN

1. The word “cosmos,” cheonju (天宙), refers to heaven and earth as one union. The character for cheon (天 ), meaning heaven, is a combination of two characters: dul (ニ) meaning two, and in (人) meaning a person.

Following this, the character ju (宙 ) means a house, which is a safe haven. A part of that character, yu (由), relates to freedom and peace. Put together, the cosmos refers to a house where two people represent heaven and earth and live for eternity in freedom and peace. It is God's house.

It is the house of God for the individual, the house of God for the tribe, the house of God for a people, the house of God for a nation, and the house of God for the cosmos. (356-172, 2001.10.14)

The establishment of the Universal Peace Federation and the Abel UN

2. Peace! The Chinese character for peace, pyeong (平 ) signifies the connection of two worlds, represented by its two horizontal lines. As a couple connects two worlds, they take horizontal positions relative to each other.

The vertical line at the center represents true love, true life, and true lineage, which are eternal. Anything horizontal lasts for one generation, but that which is vertical lasts forever. Lineage is eternal.

In addition, the Chinese character for harmony, hwa (和 ), starts with the character for rice, hwa (禾 ). Then the character for mouth (口), signifying the Word, is added to the character for rice. It means that we eat the Word physically and spiritually. It has to be through the Word that we realize the world of peace.

3. Before we began our UN assemblies, I proclaimed, “The renewal movement for true love, peace, and unity of the First Israel is for the ideal of establishing God's homeland.” Based on this vision, I proclaimed the First Declaration in Jerusalem, the Second Declaration in Washington, DC, and the Third Declaration in Seoul.

On this foundation, we could finally depart for the realm of the Fourth Israel, which had not yet emerged. The first, second, and third Israelis fell short, and that is why I made these proclamations for the establishment of the nation of the Fourth Israel. (420-031, 2003.10.10)

4. We have to build Cheon II Guk and establish a world-level Abel UN that represents the kingship of peace. The Abel UN is the Universal Peace Federation (UPF), and the Cain UN is the United Nations.

I named UPF using the word “universal” (lit: cosmic) instead of “international” because the Abel UN represents heaven and earth. Once it becomes the elder brother, it must be able to cover the roles of the Cain UN. (505-084, 2005.08.23)

5. The returning Lord will encompass what Adam, by his Fall turned upside down and put it right side up. We have entered the era for doing this, and it can be done by the Universal Peace Federation in its relationship with the Cain UN.

The Abel UN embodies the original ideal of the UN. It is advancing toward the peaceful kingdom of heaven that has nothing to do with Satan's world.
(506-101, 2005.09.01)

6. Once the Abel UN is completed, everything will change based on its laws. In the morning, everything in nature faces the sunlight. We will go through a similar process as we settle at a place that has nothing to do with hell. It is the only way we can enter the kingdom of heaven.

My expression, “noon settlement” indicates that we will purify ourselves. It alludes to the division between night and day, in that no one knows exactly when that moment passes because it happens in the blink of an eye.

The divide between spring and summer also takes but an instant to cross, and no one perceives that moment with exactness. It also turns noon in the blink of an eye. These changes occur in but an instant.

The division of day and night resulted in two sides fighting each other. Just as morning turns to noon, the world is transitioning into a world that is only day. This is what I mean by noon settlement. (506-154, 2005.09.02)

7. If you commit to doing more work than I do, the world will continue moving toward the realm of victory. If you do not, then you will be filled with regret after I pass away. Three generations of your descendants will have to set some indemnity conditions.

Therefore, no matter how difficult it is, this Abel UN, which is the Universal Peace Federation, must be established. For this, we need to have one unified land. For the Universal Peace Federation, the land should not be two, but one. It is a land where evil people cannot kill or violate good people.

The land of the Universal Peace Federation should be such a land. Anyone who opposes this or anyone who seeks their pleasure using money for personal desires rather than supporting this cause will come to ruin. The kingpins of individualism employ the concept of conflict to destroy the world of goodness.

Because they endeavor to suppress the world of goodness, they will perish. Individuals should be willing to sacrifice to save their country, countries should be willing to sacrifice to save the world and the world should be willing to sacrifice to save God.

This will lead to advancement because it builds the foundation by which all people can serve the world. When we do so, the world will inevitably realize the reign of peace and prosperity, with liberation and complete freedom.
(506-301, 2005.09.05)

8. Once we form the Universal Peace Federation, which represents the new kingship of goodness, it will emerge as the Abel UN and become the sovereignty of peace. With that, goodness will flourish and evil will recede. It will become the standard upon which the planet Earth can enjoy the governance of good kingship in God's sovereignty.

This era will surpass the standard of Adam, who fell at the age of sixteen. We are entering an era that connects us to the standard that Adam would have reached at the completion stage, at age twenty-one, when he could have received the Blessing.

This is my expectation for the Abel UN. I inaugurated the Abel UN and the peace kingdom – kingship and kingdom. Nothing that belongs to Satan, neither property nor people, can be brought to the city of the Peace King.

No one will be able to transport weapons or arms on the national highways of God's country, Cheon II Guk.

Hence, it will naturally enjoy peace.

As was prophesied in Isaiah 2:4, "They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks, " and level the royal ground for the Peace King.
(507-143, 2005.09.10)

9. This proclamation of the inauguration of the Universal Peace Federation is like the proclamation of the Declaration of Independence. It contains the core declaration: the teaching that the parent-child relationship must be settled in the family.

Lineage, the right of inheritance, and the great work of creation based on that right all are included in the relationship between God and His children. It affirms that everyone can have an equal position, represent God, and reach the standard by which they can perfect heavenly fortune.

This heavenly fortune enables us to relate to God and to complete the ideal of the kingdom of heaven on earth and in heaven. Once we reach this level, we will never be able to fall away from our relationship with God. (508-207, 2005.09.20)

10. From this time on, the realms of Abel and Cain have to become one beyond the dimension of the physical world. To put this into effect, the Cain realm should unite with the Universal Peace Federation, which was launched in the position of the Abel UN. This is the formula.

To establish a peaceful kingdom, the ideal world, we will have to break down all barriers and obstacles by working on the supra-religious and supranational levels. By doing this, all humanity will fulfill their destined responsibility, whereby they will enter the original world according to God's ideal of creation.

Then they will recover the original right of ownership that was lost due to the Fall of Adam and Eve. (513-148, 2005.12.28)

11. The Universal Peace Federation should carry the name of our nation, Cheon II Guk. That name, Cheon II Guk points to the coming era of Heavenly Parentism and the kingship of peace, the era when all humankind becomes one nation.

We must become one in mind and body based on God's lineage. In a blessed family, husband and wife must never be disunited and siblings must never be disunited. That is why the marriage Blessing is something fearful.

Free sex and homosexuality cannot exist there. Unless we enter the era when we can unite as blessed families, we cannot be among the families in the heavenly kingdom.

When the Abel UN is inaugurated and the people unite with it, the new heaven and earth that the Savior, the returning Lord and True Parents, has proclaimed will be established.

To make this happen, we need to realize the ideal of one nation, one UN, one people, and one global family. We have to bring an end to all conflicts. A great revolution will emerge even in heaven. When that time comes, even religions and their denominations will disappear. (506-101, 2005.09.01)

12. For the establishment of Cheon II Guk, I inaugurated the Inter-religious and International Federation for World Peace (IIFWP) in the position of the vertical Abel. And I brought the people with the Mongolian birthmark together through the marriage Blessing to establish the horizontal Cain realm.

Their population spread throughout the world, constitutes more than 70 percent of humanity. Thus, the time has come for blessed families to fulfill their providential responsibility to bring billions of people into one family. We have to break down completely the racial, religious, and national barriers.
(489-266, 2005.03.04)

The role and responsibility of the Abel UN

13. Unless we now form the actual Abel UN based on the Inter-religious and International Peace Council (IIPC), we will not be able to bring about the Peace UN.

The Peace UN includes Cain and Abel, and through, it God can freely work on the supranational and supra-religious levels. I have to fulfill this task certainly because I am responsible for ushering in an era of prosperity and peace.

This era of liberation and complete freedom will center on God's kingship, which has been established based on the foundation of restoration through indemnity. (465-123, 2004.08.19)

14. Working with the world and the United States, we have to reform the UN. This newly reformed UN will be combined. We are not trying to close the Cain UN, but rather to assist and guide it as if it were our younger sibling UN and transform it to be a good younger brother UN.

Then and only then will it be embraced in God's bosom with the same value as the Abel UN, just as Cain and Abel would have had the same value had there been no Fall.

When the elder brother can love the younger brother, God cannot help but love the younger brother whom the older brother loves. Therefore, the history of bitter sorrow will be overturned naturally and the world of peace will come.
(506-120, 2005.09.01)

15. The political system of the democratic world is a framework to process conflict, but when we reach the position of parents we can bring an end to conflicts. When parents are at the center, the siblings will become one. We can intervene in conflicts only as parents. No one will be against us if we are in the parents' position, whether we intervene or not.

This is the only conceivable way out of the present impasse. Therefore, we must first find the True Parents. Only from that point can we recover everything for peace, including true children and the true nation.

There is no alternative; we have to assimilate all situations through Heavenly Parentism. Only through Heavenly Parentism, it is possible. (506-130, 2005.09.01)

16. I have been working with the Abel UN to bring unity to the religious realm and then create unity between it and the Cain UN. Cain striking Abel typifies the present state of the Cain UN and Abel UN.

I have charged the Universal Peace Federation with solving this problem. For the True Parents to realize the unity of the religious realm, the Abel realm, together with the unity of nations in the Cain realm, the Abel UN needs to bring the Cain UN to voluntarily surrender. By doing so, the older brother will finally take the position of the younger brother, and vice versa. (508-039, 2005.09.16)

17. Today the task of the Unification Church is to turn things around by working with the UN. To do so, we have to expand Adam's family into the UN arena. In this era of restoration, the UN has to serve as the territory where external Cain and Abel struggles, such as the struggle between the communist world and the democratic world, are resolved.

We also have to resolve internal Cain and Abel struggles, such as among delegates at the UN. We need to lift delegates to Abel's standard, so that as Abel they can reconcile with Cain and become one family.

Our task now is to set the family conditions of indemnity on the level of the UN organization. It should fulfill this condition both internally and externally.
(264-243, 1994.11.03)

18. Politics dominate today's UN. The UN focuses on political issues. It does not consider the views of the religious realm, the world of women, young adults, or students.

The UN holds an impressive name, but without linking to these areas it has no hands or feet. It is time to establish the Abel UN. We also need a UN of religions, a women's UN, Your peoples, UN, and a students' UN. Let us form, in this world, the UN of Religions, which represents God, the Women's UN, which represents Eve, the Youth UN, which represents Cain, and the Students UN, which represents Abel. (289-230, 1998.01.02)

19. Let the world of politics drift aimlessly. Our focus should be to gather religious leaders to form a UN of religions. For this, we need to build solidarity among religious people around the world.

We also need to create solidarity among women throughout the world and solidarity among young people throughout the world. I have already set up the foundation for all of these. Korea should have strong bonds with these organizations: the UN of Religions, the Women's UN, the Youth U, N and the Students UN.

Then, after these organizations become part of the UN, Korea will be able to take a leading role in working at the UN. By educating it from a supra-religious perspective, we should enable the UN to achieve the ideal of a peaceful global family. (289-230, 1998.01.02)

20. We have to create a landing site at the UN for a religious council, on the foundation of the Inter-religious Federation for World Peace. For that purpose, I am encouraging exemplary religious leaders around the world to rally and take the lead. At the UN of Religions, organizations sustained by religious groups should have missions, the same as nations have at the UN.

For example, the Buddhist sphere should establish a Buddhist mission and the Muslim sphere should establish a Muslim mission. In this manner, all religious spheres should set up missions to the UN of Religions, complete with ambassadors, and leave conflict behind.

Currently, the UN has no owner. However, by integrating the Inter-religious Federation for World Peace, the Women's Federation for World Peace, the Youth Federation for World Peace, and the Family Federation for World Peace, the UN will equip itself with the internal and external characteristics of a world-level nation. (296-139, 1998.11.03)

21. The inheritance of Satan's lineage from the false parents on earth established false love, false life, and a false lineage. Based on this, Satan imprisoned God, took over God's position, and used the people and the children who were meant for the heavenly kingdom at his will and pleasure.

Now for the first time, True Parents have brought God and human beings back to their original position. This return to their original position brings us to the omega point. The Abel UN is designed for peace, while the Cain UN functions in a way that inevitably results in conflict.

Currently, there is friction between them, so we must unite them as the Peace UN. In fact, in some nations, there have been confrontations between the Abel UN and the Cain UN. I am inaugurating the Peace UN by bringing the Abel UN and the Cain UN together.

On that foundation, we should establish the peaceful kingdom of heaven, the UN peace kingdom. When that happens, all nations will disappear. Religions will fade away. When all nations and religions disappear, we will enter the era of one great family, the era of the kingdom of heaven. (420-031, 2003.10.10)

22. Because Jesus' body was lost in Asia after we restored it, we have to liberate Israel, Islam, and all religious realms. We need to create a realm of freedom that transcends religion, and a realm of peace that no longer has conflict and war. As we do, we will establish the original ideal base of God, where True Parents can stand within the family, nation, world, and cosmos.

Thereby, the kingdom of God on earth and in heaven will become manifest. To begin this task, I completed the formation of a realm of unity between the heavenly world and the earthly world, and in the midst of it I proclaimed, “True Parents and the Completed Testament Age.” (261-186, 1994.06.09)
