When a nation with 30 million people confronts a crisis, not all 30 million people can save the nation. Even if there are billions of people, not all of them can save their nation. It will be one person who can set a standard and save the nation. A nation can be saved by the influence of one person. He appreciates the historical accomplishment of goodness in the nation more than anybody. Also, he is a patriot who is responsible for all the problems of the nation presently and has a clear vision for the future of the nation. The assertions of this person becomes the beginning point to pioneer the way to save the nation. Thus, not by all people, but by one person who represents the nation, the nation can be in a new fortune. On the contrary, we can also miss the new fortune. We must know that. If we don't have such a standard to go over the steep hills of hardships, we canOt to set a foundation for the new era in the history. (26-256) We have to offer ourselves for the public mission. We should travel all over the nation and look at the mountains and the roads, saying, Oplease accept me." We are different from visitors or people who worried about this nation in the past. In the past, there were people who worried about Korea and shed tears under 40 years of Japanese rule, but we are a different breed. (58-160) We must go on centering on the goal to restore Korea to God. As Jesus fought to save the people risking his life, we have to fight to save Korea with our lives. The Unification Church has its own method and strategy. Our method is to triumph throughout shedding tears, blood and sweat, and by being persecuted. As a result of this, we can avoid the sorrowful position of losers. Because you have experienced these kinds of results, you should keep this strategy constantly. We must realize that we have so many responsibilities and even if we multiply our bodies, that alone will not be enough to accomplish our responsibilities. I have shed tears for Korea more than any other patriot. I shed tears out of deep feelings. I don't need to claim it because God already knows it. In the religious world, Christians prayed as martyrs, in the position to disappear like dewdrops. I have experienced this position, too. It's easy to die. It is much harder to go the round of death without dying and to accomplish destiny. (26-21) The world is not be the place for the solution. Korea is the one. The time will come when Korea will welcome us with no opposition. When North Korea wants to talk with us of equal rights, we have to be in the superior position. We have to be able to feed and embrace them with love in order to melt them down. We still have to do that. For that reason, we have to train ourselves to love our North Korean enemies. (43-280)
