1) The Minister must Feel the Lecture

You are now giving the lecture on overcoming communism, but between the lecture on overcoming communism and the Divine Principle, which one do you feel is more interesting? I want to ask. Which is more interesting? [The Divine Principle is better] You want to give a Divine Principle lecture? Do you really feel that way? It is true that giving life to the man who is about to die is the best thing.

If you become like that, the atmosphere will be charged. After staying in such an atmosphere for a few days, when you see cars and buses on the street, those things seem very strange. You will feel that you are walking on the clouds. When you walk over a bridge, you won't know whether you are walking on the Pacific Ocean or not. You will feel that you went to the spirit world and became a spirit. That is how you will feel. This is exactly what it means that we are entering the land of mystery.

In order to make such motivation, you must become such a mover, the yeast. You must have the subjectivity. Heart is a yeast. Have you seen anyone who has not been melted by heart? (157-258)

When you listen, you must listen well. When you speak, you must shed sweat, blood, and tears. That is what is scary. These days, when you give a Divine Principle lecture, you are lecturing only with the formulated method. As if you are going for work, you make an appointment and say, "Let's start the lecture at so-and-so time." This is not right. You cannot do that. This is why I gave a direction in Korea that when one gives a lecture, he must do it as he sweats, as he sweats. All 36 Blessed Families who are early members gave lectures in that way. They were educated in such a way. (96-323)

When you lecture the Divine Principle, you should not lecture as if you know everything about the Bible verses and other information through just the material that you have noted down and memorized. Before you speak about the core context, you must know the entire context and feel a new taste through it.

In order to move the audience, you must shed tears holding on to the Divine Principle. You must be so strongly attached to the Divine Principle that you would read the book throughout the night with the feeling that the time is too precious to lose. Also, you must be the one who would experience mystery from every page. See what you feel lecturing after experiencing that. See how the audience is moved and respond. Without any doubt, the audience will be newly moved. This is the Principle. (30-130)

When you lecture, you must think what will you leave during the lecture. When you speak, you must think what will you leave during your speech. When your hand moves, you must think what will your hand leave at the place where your hand went. When you act, you must think what will you leave. You must pledge all these. This is why, even if you go the difficult way, even if you go the exhausting way, you must always think what will you leave. You must think what will you leave as you always walk the difficult and exhausting way. Your excitement must be overflowing. You cannot be exhausted. This is what is needed. (96-331)

You should not stop giving lectures. How wonderful the expression is. This is why if one who knows the taste is told not to lecture, will die if he doesn't speak. He will feel alive when he feels the taste again from speaking overnight. Otherwise, he wouldn't want to live.

Now I am very famous and so busy that I cannot give the Divine Principle lecture. The old days when I was raising members were the most exciting period. Now I am very bored. No matter how late it got, even if it was getting close to midnight and the members wanted to go home, I had them sit down and I continued speaking from the intoxication and the excitement of talking. Even if they said, "Please, Father, it is twelve o'clock, you need to sleep," I didn't listen to them. However, when it became 1 o'clock and I was about to stand up, I saw them standing up before me. At that moment, I felt wordless.

You are smiling because you agree with me. Unless you are a Unification Church member, you don't know what I am saying. You must be intoxicated while you lecture, you must shed a tear while you lecture, you must be grateful while you lecture, and you must think while you lecture. How wonderful that is. How exciting that is.

If you don't lecture, if you don't feel the taste, you should feel that you are dying. Do you do that? Because God is always with you when you lecture, there will be a strong flow of electricity. You will feel the power that seems billions of volts flowing. Also, you will feel that the world is shaking because of you. How thrilling this would be? You'll feel that your eyes won't close even if you want to close them. Even in the middle of sleep, your eyes will be suddenly opened. That is possible.

What I am saying is not only for the sake of our Unification Church, but I am appealing to the patriotic-for the sake of America and to save Korea. With thought, you have to make the atmosphere. America, now, is gradually perishing because of the corruption of the youth. This is why we have to speak to them with the patriotic thought that we will save America with our hand.
