3. Unity as the Goal of Love

When would the unity around God come? What would be the ultimate center of this unity that is the ideal monument to God's Creation? God's creative powers? No. The existing church had God's power of establishing an eternal paradise on earth and dreamed of the Second Coming. But, sorry. If power could do it, the Fall wouldnOt have happened. That's just illogical dreaming which only leads to ruination. Power is not it; God's omniscience or omnipotence are not it. You just misunderstand the whole thing. It's not your knowledge. It's not Heaven's unlimited treasure. It's love. It is love that's at the center of all things.

What is unity with love at its center? It is love that belongs to God. A wife may show off a big diamond ring, but whose love does it symbolize? It's her husband's. That's it, her husbandOs. Her ring is not hers, but the symbol of her husband's love. The ring will fade if it does not mean love. IsnOt that so? Love is its substance. Is there any happiness in her gold or gems if her husband's love is lost?

So where should the foundation of unity for God be? It's the object of love that would please God's expectations, that would satisfy all of God's mind and body, that would move God to say, OThat's it!" in great exultation. That's love. Adam and Eve alienated this. If they had truly loved each other, the love would have made Adam Eve's and Eve Adam's and both God's, and therefore all creation would have belonged to all three. When love connected them, all things on earth would have been theirs as they were God's. Do you understand what that means?

That's why love unifies all things. Love unifies God's mind and body, and will unify even the once-alienated Adam and Eve, and all creatures on earth. The Fall would not have occurred if love had been the connection between God and all His creations. If so, all would have belonged to God. Adam would be God's, Eve would be AdamOs, Adam EveOs, the woman the manOs, the man the womanOs, parents their childrenOs, children their parentsO. Everyone would belong to everyone else as the firm foundation of things. You must understand this.

That's what makes love such a great thing. Love bridges social standings, obliterates time and space, establishes collective belonging of all to all, and places everyone within the sphere of collective power. It's a surprisingly great fact.

Do you think God created all things that would give Him grief? Or, all things to give Him joy? He created all things for a positive reason, as positivity creates joy. Then joy flows out as the object of love. Love for God is the foundation of unity. This love is the source of power that unites all nations, to lead all nations for all eternity.

Love begets greater love, just as parents love children. Love becomes one. No one can divide one's unity with God in love. Is there any love grander than this?

Perfect unity is possible only in perfect love for God.

Where would unity take place? Thinking about it alone doesnOt do it. Only love can make it happen. It will happen when your love unites your whole mind and body. That's how it's done. Because of that, unity is possible only through love.

Oneness will occur only this way. Not only the perfect unity, the final unity, but the horizontal unity begins with love. If it is centered around God, the nature of goodness is in love. Unity is automatic through love. Even Satan will obey love that's higher than himself. God created heaven and earth to give us the greatest good and love.
