1)The Islamic Realm's View

Who is Barabbas? He was supposed to die, but because of Jesus, he survived, isn't that true? The Arabic realm is today's Islamic realm. Islam came from Christianity but afterward deviated from the religious tradition. They are the Cain-type world religion, the Barabbas-type religion. If people did not accept the Koran, they were put to death. Do you understand? In the democratic world, Christianity is the internal, spiritual standard. Within the Communist realm, Islam can stand in the internal position. Therefore, Islam and Christianity are historical enemies, and also democracy and Communism are historical enemies. (50-224)

Which country is like Barabbas? It is the Islamic countries, holding in one hand the Koran and in the other the sword. That is not the essence of real faith. They are fundamentally wrong if seen from original religious teachings. Islam became the internal side with Communism the external side. (69-112)

What kind of person was Barabbas? He was able to survive because of Jesus, isn't that true? He was a rebel against the government; he tried to raise a revolt against the government. He was to have been executed immediately. But because of Jesus he survived, isn't that true? If the parent of Barabbas was Jesus, then Barabbas should have been loyal to Jesus, at the risk of his life since he received liberation instead of Jesus. This is the way for everyone to go.

Where is the Barabbas realm? Barabbas survived death because of Jesus. Since he received liberation from Jesus he should have been concerned about Jesus' death and been sympathetic towards Jesus carrying the cross; but instead he blamed Jesus. Although Jesus was resurrected only after his crucifixion, Barabbas never died but received liberation through Jesus. You have to understand that the Islamic realm, which believes the Koran centering on the Old Testament, has originated from this fact.

Because of this, Islam became the enemy of Christianity. Just as Jesus and the right-side thief became one, so the time will come when the left-side thief and Barabbas will become one. Then what is the democratic world? It is represented by the right-side thief. This is not a story that Rev. Moon is making up. History is destined to go that direction. What, from now on, is the problem? The Islamic realm is the problem, and the Communist world is the problem. You have to understand that the Communist Party and the Islamic realm are cooperating with each other. The democratic world, standing as the right-side thief with Jesus, should prevent this. Where has the power of the democratic world gone to prevent this? (54-127)
