Korean members have an important responsibility to become leaders who guide the heart of foreign members and guide their faith in the right direction. Based upon the norms and virtues which you have inherited through a long history and its tradition, you must play a role like a root in the world of heart. Korean members must show an exemplary life of attendance for all members of the world. You must inherit the tradition of heart in order to solve God's regretting and agonizing heart. (1982/10/17) You are working at the headquarters. If you had a mind to think about Father and to live for the sake of Father, you must have a heart to live for the sake of Korea, the world, and God. You don't have to worry about me. Even if you did not worry about me, I know my way to go. I can go my way even if I died. But, you may not be able to go your way even if you died. Therefore, don't worry about me, but love Korea, love all humankind of the world, and God more than anything else. Only after that, love Father. This is the way you must go. When you feel a longing heart for Father, turn your mind and long for the people of Korea. I feel at home when I see a person who cries for Korea as Father did, holding the mountains of this thirty thousand miles of Korean land, grasping a branch of a pine tree or a piece of grass. Father feels a longing heart for this kind of person. (51-361) What I wish you for you to establish is the pride of a suzerain. Once you are born as a child of a tiger, you are a tiger even if your legs are wounded. Do you know what I mean? (Yes.) Don't be a spineless coward who just accepts all bad words about the Unification Church, which he may hear wherever he goes. Although I have things that I want to say, I do not speak out. I think, "Let's see ten years from now!" I need a person who cannot sleep well without solving by himself the problems which no one can solve, a person who cannot claim any success without solving the problems. I need a person who straightens himself, and can focus on and fulfill the goal in the way he has set. Unless one is such a person, I don't think he can solve the present problems of Korea, pioneer, and make a bridge to the new future world and the new heavenly kingdom. Father will make a way to connect Korea together. After a little while, the time will come when each country competes with each other to welcome Father. The day will come not so long from now. When the time comes, Korea will not be able to become even a candidate. I think so. This is the country in which I shed my blood and tears, and I spent sleepless nights by giving all my heart. However, this country does not listen to me as do some other countries. I have made an imperishable foundation for you. But you have not become even children of cats, although I told you to become children of tigers. If I made a mistake about your education, I must take responsibility. Do you understand what I am talking about? (Yes.) I am a serious man. I am a person who becomes more serious along with the Heavenly dispensation. (82-46)
