Rise Up and Tell the World About True Parents
Unificationists from around the world were welcomed to the Global Sunday Service held via internet on May 10, 2014 at the Cheong Shim Peace World Center in Korea. The following is an edited transcript from the English verbal translation of True Mother’s worldwide message given at the Cheongshim Peace World Center, South Korea, on Sunday, May 11, 2014.Edits made were made only to the grammar, not the message itself.
Today is the second spring by the Heavenly Calendar of Cheon Il Guk.
Spring is the season of hope. It is a time when we can raise our dreams to a higher place.
However, in this beautiful season, the news that we hear from around the nation and the world is filled with sadness and conflict and is truly tragic. It is as if this world is on a ship without a captain or a compass. We are in unstable circumstances, like crashing after meeting a violent storm or sinking after hitting a rock. As we look at these problems, we, all Unificationist families around the world and all warriors of Unificationism, must rise! We cannot just sit idly and wait, doing nothing. We cannot keep the blessing we’ve received to ourselves. When we think about the 7 billion people who are suffering as orphans, we have to let them know that True Parents have been working with the Heavenly Parent.
In light of that, I have relocated the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification (FFWPU) international headquarters to the Cheong Jeong Gung as of yesterday. Through this, I have opened the providence here in this holy ground where our Heavenly Parent can now rule and govern directly. Is that not something for which we can be grateful?
These blessings cannot remain only for ourselves. When we fulfill our mission of tribal messiahs, as true children who resemble True Parents, we will be in the position of ancestors. In order to fulfill this responsibility, we have to rise. We cannot wait any longer. Even at this very moment, there are countless people who are dying without knowing that True Parents are here and alive.
Even though they live in the same age as True Parents, they do not know this providential history. This is the first time that this has come about, after 6,000 years of suffering, and still they are not in the position to receive this grace and blessing and just pass away tragically. These are our brothers and sisters, and we need to think about them, and when we do, we need to roll back our sleeves and rise up to the challenge.
We need to proclaim True Parents to the world without reservation and let everyone know that, without True Parents, this world cannot survive. I believe that this is the only way in which we can give back for receiving the blessings that we have received from Heaven.
Therefore, I have divided all the continents into language zones, and through this I want to give all humanity a chance and opportunity to participate in the heavenly providence quickly.
I have established special agents who will help fulfill the task of spreading the blessings in these continents. So, all of you who are here today, please join your hearts as one. I would be grateful if you would set your hearts to this cause so that you are also participating in the journey with them as they go. This special task will truly open the season of spring for the whole world.
I would like to conclude my speech by asking all members in the world to rise up until we reap the fruit. Thank you very much.
