Some early European Church-history:
Why would a person nowadays
still accept an arranged marriage?
What is this "Matching"?
How about these International
Blessings? How do they work?
Why would somebody give up a
steady job to be part of a traveling
fundraising team, with no personal
income?
My hope is that these stories will
answer these questions.
About faith and beliefs
— about a group of people
and the culture they created.

The rise of South Korea is one of the most
unexpected and inspirational developments
of the latter part of our century.
A few decades ago, the Koreans were an
impoverished, agricultural people.
In one generation they came out of
the fields and into Silicon Valley.
In 1997, this powerhouse of a nation reeled and
almost collapsed as a result of a weak financial
system and heavily indebted conglomerates.
The world is now watching to see whether
the Koreans will be able to reform and continue
their stunning growth.

• Part II Reagan and the fight for freedom
• Part III Today in the Light of Dispensational History
Today, compared to the size of the communists' power, the New Yorker
Hotel (Unification Church World Mission Center) is like that small cubbyhole
of 20 years ago. We have only a handful of people, yet we are talking about
the liberation of the communists; we are talking about Moscow. I am sure
most people laugh. Let them laugh now. I know one thing: In the communist
world, the children of the communist leaders are on the side of God. The
next generation in the Soviet Union will be on my side.
• Part IV INTRODUCTION TO REV. AND MRS MOON by Bo Hi Pak

• Part V CAUSA
Latin American heads of state expressed an interest in
hearing an ideological response to Marxism.
Heartened by the genuine interest expressed by Latin American
governmental, religious, and civic leaders, Reverend Moon established
CAUSA International. The first nation to express an interest in the CAUSA
program was Bolivia. The first CAUSA seminar took place there in
December 1980.
POST-COMMUNIST ERA
Since the demise of the Soviet Union, the American Leadership Conference
continues to hold seminars for state legislators and religious and civic
leaders; however, their major focus is no longer communism but rather
strengthening the family and ethical values.

Gorbachev with
(many ethnical roots
(maybe also korean roots!)
A melting pot of religions, Russia’s Stavropol region is home to 14
ethnicities, which makes its diverse culture truly unique.
The Caucasus has been home to a multitude of ethnic groups for
centuries.
Whether it’s a traditional Russian song, the serenity of prayer within an
Armenian church, or even the simplicity of daily conversation around the
dinner table in an Islamic home, the cultural, religious and ethnic diversity
in the region is special.
“There are Christians, Muslims and Jewish people here. We even have
Catholics, but we try not to consider the religious differences. We
consider ourselves people of our town who live together,” says Sultan
Temirov, who is the head of the Cherkess Society in the resort city of
Pyatigorsk.

Koryo-saram is the name which ethnic Koreans in the post-Soviet states
use to refer to themselves. Approximately 500,000 ethnic Koreans reside
in the former Soviet Union, primarily in the now-independent states of
Central Asia.
There are also large Korean communities in southern Russia (around
Volgograd), the Caucasus, and southern Ukraine. These communities
can be traced back to the Koreans who were living in the Russian Far
East during the late 19th century.

Spiritual Phenomena
I Am in This Place
Testimonies about
Jesus & Sun Myung Moon
2006

I found myself walking in a dark corridor, at the end
of which I saw a light. Getting closer,
I saw in that bright light the face of Jesus.
Then Jesus’ face changed into Sun Myung Moon’s face.
I had the strong feeling that it was the same heart;
only the external appearance changed.
I felt profoundly happy!
This remains in my heart as extremely precious evidence
that our True Parents embody God’s love.
/ Elisabeth Ciacciarelli Schneider

2006
Shirley Stadelhofer

2006
All of a sudden, something in the form of
a soft light appeared at the foot of my bed.
It did not speak and I was not afraid, but I had a strong
feeling that it was a spiritual manifestation of Jesus.
I believed he was trying to tell me something,
but I wasn’t sure what it was. After the vision faded, a
strong conviction came to me that this “appearance”
was a confirmation that the revelation from
Sun Myung Moon, which I had been studying, was not
false prophecy or heresy, but a new truth from God!

Ambassador K. V. Rajan
Ambassador from India to
Nepal (1995-2000)
As a professional diplomat, I recall my
curiosity several decades ago about the
controversy generated about Father Moon in the United
States.
I was then serving in Washington, D.C., and was invited
by a group of fellow diplomats from Asian countries
for a series of informal brainstorming sessions with
academics, media persons and young professionals
on how, utilizing Father Moons initiatives,
civil society could strengthen official efforts to create
a more peaceful world order.

Ambassador from India to Nepal (1995-2000)
Gandhis emphasis on peacebuilding through concentric
circles of human commitment the individual at the center
�
surrounded respectively by the family, community, nation
and the world had much to do with Indias success in
liberating itself from the colonial yoke through non-violent
means, and it remains at the root of Indias aspiration for
becoming a major world power dedicated to peace.
This finds an echo for Indians in Father Moons emphasis
on each individual being prepared to serve, sacrifice,
and if necessary, suffer in the cause of peace.

The essence of Father Moons message is that unless
the root causes of violence are tackled, the world will
witness human tragedy on an unprecedented scale.
Father Moons personal sacrifices and sufferings,
his incredibly punishing daily schedule, and his
perseverance in building trust where there was enmity,
interdependence where there was non-communication,
harmony where there was conflict, and love where there
was hatred, are examples for the rest of humanity.
Ambassador from India to Nepal (1995-2000)

I realized at one point that the 12 points that are mentioned
in Understanding Marriage are all part of the Principle of
Creation (in Divine Principle) –
so I rearranged them into their rightful place within the PofC
and then I could see what was missing from the course –
the section on Mind/body unity and the section on
growth and the role of vitality elements.
They come together as a whole philosophy when you understand that
our mind and heart should embody the positions of a true parent,
true child, and true brother/sister.
The 12 points are all part of achieving those three positions -
If you fulfil all the 3 positions, you embody the 12 points and more.

Comparing Science and Human Love
EVERY LIVING ORGANISM, SOCIETY, RELIGION OR ORGANISATION,
TO BE IN A STATE OF HEALTH,NEEDS TO EMBODY 5 DIFFERENT
QUALITIES - ALL FLOWING AND WORKING TOGETHER IN SOME
DEGREE OF HARMONY.
In my field these 5 qualities can termed as;
Protective Parent (more masculine qualities + ve)
Nurturing Parent (more feminine qualities - ve)
Adult (Neutral)
Free child (Neutral)
Adapted child (neutral):

Protective Parent (more masculine qualities + ve): Providing protective
boundaries and rules, ensuring effective discipline, contracts, protecting the
organism from outside threats etc.
Nurturing Parent (more feminine qualities - ve): Offering encouragement,
support, praise, growth, empathy, education, and a desire to offer yourself
for the benefit of something larger.

Adult (Neutral): Making sure the work gets done, planning, problem
solving, day to day running of the organism
Free child (Neutral): Creativity, ability to express needs, fun, laughter,
celebration, honesty
Adapted child (neutral): Responds to requests, lives within rules, loyalty,
respectful behaviour, sense of fairness
The new course I teach is based on the Principle of creation -

Written in a down-to-earth, familiar style, Ellanson’s book has a noteworthy
rhythm. It leads the reader from amazing spiritual experiences to heart-stopping
dangers he faced to joyful times to deep experiences of the Divine Principle,
God, and the marriage tradition of the church.
Lowell artfully weaves together all of these elements to create a volume that not
only fascinates but naturally educates any reader in the exciting basics of the
theology of the Unification Church and the Marriage Blessing for which
it is famous.

Sun Myung Moon not only revealed the Divine Principle
He fulfilled all the promises in it, and in the Bible.

The continuation of the incarnation the Christ, not Jesus, but a Christ,
is the Holy Spirit. This Holy Spirit has never been silent – never been
inactive. God - in many names ~ and worshiped in many ways –
will touch the hearts of people, and many prophecies will be fulfilled. /A Ford

Cheong Il Guk
Now we must bring OT, NT and CT into one

And I saw in the right hand of him who was seated on the throne
a scroll written within and on the back, sealed with seven seals;
and I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, “
Who is worthy to open the scroll and break its seals?"
…the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David,
has conquered, so that he can open the scroll and its seven seals."
- Rev. 5:1

The tune of the Cheon Il Guk anthem comes from
the joyous and powerful melody of Holy Song number 3,
“New Song of Inspiration.”
The basic melody of this holy song is preserved
but it has been arranged with a more majestic,
powerful and joyous rhythm to better reflect the vision
of Cheon Il Guk, of creating a world
of freedom, peace, unity and happiness.

Very well done. This book does a good job of conveying
what the believers believe.
It’s written by Nelson Mira who is a UC member with a
master’s in religious education and a clear, tight prose style.

Proclamation of the Word that firmly establishes
the True Parents of Heaven , Earth and Humankind
Proclaim Gods Holy Word

Think of the last 2 000 years in which we just had the Bible.
Now with True Parents, we have the path to Cheon Il Guk
clear ahead of us, and the foundation that True Father has
given us is his word.
There are three core books in preparation that are a
summary of Father’s words:
• the Cheon Seong Gyeong,
• Pyeonghwa Gyeong (Peace Messages)
and a third
• the Champumo Gyeong, or True Parents life story

True Parents [Hak Ja Han]
bestowed a motto for the victory of 2020!
/Dae Mo Nim Jan 1, 2014
'Let us become true owners of Cheon Il Guk who practice
true love in resemblance to our creator,
the Heavenly Parent!‘
Finally the year 2014 was welcomed with much anticipation.
On this day at the Hoon Dok Hae True Mother bestowed
the New Year Motto which will be the direction for the
unification family for the victory of year 2020.

Chambumo Gyeong, the third of a trilogy of new scriptural
works known as the Holy Scripture of Cheon Il Guk,
has been published in Korean, and translation into English
is already well under way.

There was great rejoicing on September 1, 2015
in Cheong Pyeong, Korea, with the successful
publication of the Cham Bumo Gyeong
in Korean, English and Japanese.

According to the Buddhist scriptures, Udumbara
is an imaginary flower that only blossoms every 3000
years when the King of Falun comes to the human world.
This heavenly flower is a sign of rare preciousness
and a miracle.

Jennifer Tanabe.
Eternal Life in the Spirit World,
which I co-authored with the late
Dr. Dietrich Seidel, discusses
what we know about the spiritual
realm starting with the thoughts
of the Greek philosophers,
Plato and Aristotle, and their influence on contemporary
understanding.
We continue with more recent sources,
including Rev. Sun Myung Moon and Dr. Sang Hun Lee,
as well as reports from those who had near-death
experiences, which all serve to make the spiritual realm
seem much more substantial. - link

1951 Hungnam
David Hanlon (auth. Father),
a young seaman from Medford, MA,
stood on the flight deck of the carrier
USS Leyte and watched the bombing
in the distance.
The ship also housed hundreds of
US Marines who later came ashore
in Hungnam. Few, if any ever returned home.

2018
A few days after the invasion, seaman Hanlon went ashore with
a friend of his on shore leave and strolled through the streets of
Hungnam, believing it was safe.
While the two walked together they were spotted by a lone
North Korean sniper. The snipers bullet spared young David.
Unfortunately his friend lost his life. My father (the young David),
of cource, never even heard of the Rev. Moon until I joined
26 years later (1977).

2018
A captivating autobiographical account of Ali Mahjoub.
Born as a Muslim in north Africa, he tells the story of how God
worked miracles throughout his life, leading him through an
unending chain of prophetic dreams and what the author coined
as “divine” acts of coincidences, to meet the Unification
Movement in America, in a mysterious synchronization of time,
place and events.

If you’re still wondering how the Bible and the Divine Principle
relate with each other, this unique book will help make it clear.

HTM – Heavenly Tribal Messiah
2019

The Quest to Pass on our Religious Tradition to the Next Generation,
By Jennifer Tanabe co-authored with Dr. Rollain Nsemi Muanda,
discusses the difficult challenge faced by all parents of faith in passing on
their tradition to their children.
2019

As Jesus faced his final days before his crucifixion, he offered a pray (in John 17)
that all believers in the future could be perfectly one “as God and Christ are one.”
Yet two thousand years later we see Christians divided by doctrine, denominational
structures, political interests and contentions over moral and social values.
"Realizing Jesus" strives to be the hoped-for wake-up call and attempts to shed light
upon the numerous mysteries and unanswered questions that traditional doctrines
have ignored or glossed over.
2019

2020
Most of the past publicity about the Unification Church (Unification Movement),
and Reverend Moon has been negative. Jo Ann attempts to give an
understanding of what this movement is all about, based on her experiences,
and as seen through her eyes, and explain what made her and thousands
of American young people join this movement.
She also tries to give a basic understanding of the Divine Principle.
She says, "I believe if the world knew even the basics of the Principle,
we could see the way to peace on earth, as we could overcome the things
that divide us now."
