1) The Motivation and Background of the National Federation Who made this National Federation Movement for the Unification of North and South? (Father!) No, I mean by whom was it made? This was not by Rev. Moon, but by Heavenly Father. (Jan. 31, 1988) Having been expelled throughout the world, I, from the edge of the world established foundations the levels of the individual, family, tribe, nation, and world, and carrying on the worldwide fortune I engrafted them. As you know it is not easy-the National Federation Movement for the Unification of North and South. Heavenly Father has to be the leader, at the very front. It is not good if Heavenly Father is not together with us. Today South Korea as the central nation of the world should be connected with Heaven at the axis of love. This should be 38th Parallel; among the twelve pearl gates it should be the golden gate where one can enter Heaven. But what is that gate now, Panmunjom-this became the gate of the Devil. This should have been the gate of gold but it became the gate leading to destruction. There is where righteousness and evil confront. Righteousness is pursued and evil has gained power. Truth is struck by falsehood. God's Will is to get rid of this evil. Rev. Moon is doing this as a representative of the whole world. We have to defend there as well as in America and in Japan. Because of the division of North and South, we have to accomplish unification by connecting to God's original love, making an offering for the resentment of the world. Therefore, through the liberation of God and humankind, we can stamp out the problem of this nation and everything will center on the ideology of love. Therefore, the National Federation Movement for the Unification of North and South, centered on the unification of the Fatherland, desires to join them through the preparation of a glorious ideology of eternal love and of eternal liberation. It will open the gate to the Kingdom of Heaven where we can live together with Heavenly Father for eternity. Do you understand? (Yes!) I came back to Korea which is still directed in the right way in the levels of the individual, the family, the tribe, and the nation. I came back to Korea to bring the realm of victory. Thus, Cain must surrender to Abel. Is that wrong? Because I brought that kind of fortune, I could establish the National Federation Movement for the Unification of North and South. When the Korean War happened, the Communist people broke through the 38th Parallel. You have to do more than them. How many years did the Communist Party organize? Three years! They prepared the invasion of Korea in a period of three years, from 1948 to 1950; so we have to act within three years. Until I could at last establish the way that America should go, because I was in the position of pioneer, I could not return. Heavenly Father has taught me to become aware that everything is connected. If not I would have returned to Korea a long time ago. Why do the Korean people come and work here? Is that wrong? After building the path where Heaven could go, where Heaven could reign, truly I could go back to my own country. Heaven could come to our country through the world stage. Not to go through that way-that is a different thinking. So, now because the way through which the North and South can be unified is erected, I went ahead and founded the National Federation Movement for the Unification of North and South. People who are wishing for the unification of North and South are also wishing for the appearance of one whom Heaven recognizes as the righteous ruler. So that this time, by establishing the National Federation Movement for the Unification of North and South, the South Korean people see that only Rev. Moon is striving for the unification of North and South. This is not an impossible theory. It's definitely fact. Even the government cannot do this. Can Pres. Chung make the unification of North and South? Kim Il Sung said, "Let's unify North and South." Can he unify North and South Korea? Its a dream! Right after World War II, global division started; Christianity in America couldn't unite with the American nation and the Korean people couldn't unite with Rev. Moon. I had to make indemnity on that level to make two points into one. So Rev. Moon made the Federation centered on God and centered on the Unification Church as a perfect foundation for people to use power in all kinds of directions. Rev. Moon made the foundation! We cannot be like those passing by in the street drinking alcohol and muttering, "Oh, what a good feeling!" Already we are being surrounded from around the world. We have to elevate our seat over the level of the net that surrounds us which is connected to America, Japan, and China. In order to establish the environment to begin the National Federation I established in Oct. 11, 1986, the Federation of the Unification of Professors and Students. The head of a university expressed astonishment as to why Rev. Moon was doing that kind of work. It was like cooking beans while lighting a candle. But at that moment the providence was very urgent. Being so busy I could not look back and time passed so quickly. Especially 1987, during the establishment on April 13 and the declaration on June 29 of the National Federation Movement for the Unification of North and South, was a very complicated time nationally and providentially. Since we started the unification movement in such a dangerous time, this organization was considered strange and remarkable. Some rich people who had a lot of money, some political people, and also people who want to succeed in life, simply left. They didn't do anything. The situation was similar to dying; but we were the only ones shouting with a big voice. Last year, on campus, a leftist movement tried to attack five important members . Of course, the Unification Church members overcame them. The term "five important figures", where did it come from? This was the name given by the leftist movement to those members as they fought on the central campus of the university. During that situation on the school campuses in the entire country of Korea, who else beside us was giving speeches centered on university professors and famous people in society? This was the big challenge. This was so dangerous. On May 15, with this kind of foundation, we established the National Federation. Was it made by a nation? Who made it? Absolutely I made it. (January 2, 1988)
