The purpose of witnessing is to create my second self. (18-186)

The Old Testament Age is a time of material offering. Isn't that true? [Yes it is.] What is the New Testament Age then? It is a time for offering the son, as the person himself. This is what Jesus had to do. Isn't that what Jesus did? At that time, the person had to be offered as a sacrifice. A person is the best offering that God wishes for. This is what financial restoration is. This is what fundraising is all about; we must do fundraising. First, we must do enough of it so that the people of the outside world, the ordinary people cannot catch up; then, we must raise ourselves up to the position of the child, and represent God by giving love centering on His word. You have to do witnessing. Witnessing: we must do the mission of Jesus (95-294)

What is witnessing? It is standing in the position of a child; in other words, it is paying indemnity for the New Testament Age. We must win over Satan. We must win victory over him. (119-49)

What is the purpose behind going out witnessing? It is to attain a position better than Jesus'. Jesus had to pray to God three times at the Garden of Gethsemane that his life be spared. To attain position better than Jesus', we are to raise disciples who would not stand opposed as did disciples, but would follow to the end, even to the path of death. A disciple must be willing to die before that person or his child.

All crosses must be born by you, and you must be willing to be hit by all the stones that people throw in the villages; you must receive all the curses and accusations, and you must be the first to receive all the beatings; this is how it should be. Do you understand? [Yes] What is the purpose of witnessing? [To surpass Jesus' position.] (96-122)

Then how do you do witnessing? You must put in more efforts! You must be more diligent. Even more than in restoring material things and going through the Old Testament Age, passing through the New Testament and restoring the child requires dedicated effort. You must be more diligent than that. This is the basic principle. You must work harder than that. If it is otherwise, then it is not in accordance with the Principle.

This is the only way to pass through the New Testament Age. It is fulfilling the responsibility in place of Jesus. Adam lost the creation, humanity, and love. He lost these three things. Thus, in order to become his replacement and become the child of God, we must claim back the creation, humanity, and love. This is the way of restoration. This is the basic law. This is not the words of Rev. Moon himself. Isn't that so? Do you understand? [Yes] Therefore, we cannot neglect it.

Accordingly, you wouldn't be able to even fathom how much I had to go through to claim back the creation and raise money. You cannot understand how many tears I have shed for witnessing during many sleepless nights. You do not understand how much persecution I have received and how heavy a cross I have carried in order to restore the family that God wanted. (96-151)

Our witnessing through the Divine Principle is carrying on a movement to find love. The world of heart will surpass time and space. The word and prayer are ultimately all for the sake of love. Perfection is realizing the ideals of love. (33-69)
