You must research into the philosophy of "living person." You should always be thinking how you can guide a person to you. You should think of ways to guide people. There is only one way for this task, and I know that method. It is the spirit of serving others. It's man's basic nature to go close to something that can provide some benefit.

If those in contact with you can gain some benefit from you, then you can naturally attract others. You will face a big barrier if you are trying to obtain some favors from them. When you serve someone, you two can become close. You can teach everything through this method. It should be very clear to you that witnessing is not to be done for your sake. The question is how much energy you can input for the sake of one individual's salvation, and how much you can give in order to move one individuals heart. This is at the core of our activities. By doing so, you will come to understand God's heart, how much effort God has made in creating Adam, and how much energy he has consumed in restoring Adam.

You must also have the same heart as God toward one individual. Even if you are unable to invest all your energy for that person, you should have decided in your mind that you will do your absolute best. This is the attitude that you should have.

Only by possessing this mindset, can you understand the tears of joy that God will shed when he can claim Adam back. Moreover, you can sense God's heart. Thus, when you go out witnessing and meet with people, you should share in God's sorrow and cry with Him, or feel the love that God has felt toward people, and become aware of such a situation.

You should strive to experience this. If you can do that, then when that someone returns to God, then you will cry in joy together. The person will remember forever that moment of sorrow, that moment of happiness, and that moment of agony. You will be able to make an impression deeper than anyone else has in his or her life so that he or she can never forget you. At that point, you must help the other in ways that even his or her friends cannot help. When one is happy, then you should tell something appropriate, and when undergoing trying times, then you should be concerned about the suffering and give comfort. You must think about all this when you are doing witnessing. People live in harmony with each other through this type of relationships. (52-276)

When you are witnessing on the roadside, you may think that you are alone, but you are never alone. You should always think that you are inside the heart of God, and understand that the nation should be seen as an offering table and you are standing at its lowest point. Even at such a position, you should witness with the attitude, "Satan, come if you dare!" You need this type of bravery and experience. (18-276)

When you are on a witnessing mission in the countryside, you are not out there as a single individual. You are fighting on behalf of the whole Heaven and the whole movement, and all of the brothers, sisters, and members. (15-304)

When you go out witnessing, you should not feel alone. You should try to connect with those who could not go out. In this way, you should initiate a joint operation between the frontier and the defense line. Those in the front-line should fight in the front and those left in the interior should exert themselves to the full and provide material or spiritual support. There must be such effort. Those who could not go out witnessing this time must at least establish a condition of having participated in the campaign indirectly. (11-210)

Women should not go out witnessing alone. You should drag with you an old grandfather or a grandmother; even if they have to be on a cane, you should try to take them along. If not, then take along an elementary school child. Do you understand? [Yes] I am not telling you not go out witnessing, but I am saying this because it is dangerous. (66-226)

When you go out to the regions during this period, you should work with the determination, "All of you people, come here at once. All the spirits from this village, gather here! Let us stage a conference of patriotism." If you run into opposition from someone, then you should deal with him from the position of a parent with a big loving heart which even your own children did not experience. Since the life element of the creation is God's love, ultimate love can conquer these type of people. You should also stand in the position of a child who can serve that opposer with the dedication greater than that of a parent toward a child. If you carry this out, then you can subjugate him. (11-274)

When you have a witnessing guest, you should be in the state of mind that you want to give any precious thing that you have. If it is clothes, then you must have a strong desire to give that. If you have some food, then you must not take up the attitude, "I am hungry so I should eat it now," but display the parental heart, "I am hungry, but I am going to save it wrapped in newspapers to see if anybody might come and want it." Even if you yourself are hungry, as long as there is someone who is also feeling hunger, you must overcome the desire to eat it. This is how you should be. Do you understand what I mean? (50-307)

I hope that you all ask yourselves, "Is my desire to do witnessing earnest?" You should be willing to give all of your effort and even face death. I am driving you hard because I understand the heart of God. (12-329)

Those who are going out witnessing should not worry that they are not skilled in giving Principle lectures. All you have to do is remain loyal, and until someone who can give the lectures arrives mobilize those who can listen when the time comes. But that doesn't mean that it is all right for you to refuse someone's request for a lecture with the excuse, "I cannot lecture so well." You should give the words with the most sincere heart, but should also add that the headquarters is trying to supply someone who can supplement further the lecture content. (150-327)

Do not be concerned that you are not good in witnessing. It is all right to not bring people into the Unification Church. You should make the impression in people such that they will say about you in their hearts, "These people are good people." Do you understand? They should be testifying, "These people do not like to be indebted to others. If you give them once, they will return it multiple times." No one dislikes this type of people. (85-42)

You must sink into the heart of appeal as if wailing because facing a dangerous crowd. While you are meeting someone, you should witness with a desperate heart as if your throat is bursting and blood spits out like vomit. What I am saying is that you should have this type of mindset. Wailing and shedding tears, you should appeal in order to win one person over. (125-23)

When you are on a witnessing campaign, as long as you act on my directions, no matter what happens to the body, what goes into the nose and eyes... there is no one who will not be inspired to join.

In catching a carp, all you need is some sort of net-like silk cloth, which you can just place over the fish to catch it. Because the fins are pointing backwards, if you put the net in this way then you can catch it at once. (He is speaking while showing with his gestures.) This is how the fins are located. It is made that way because it is meant to be caught. (92-322)

While you are on the witnessing mission, you should experience material difficulty, interpersonal difficulty, and suffering of the heart. You must be able to obtain sympathy even from wicked people, and win their support before you return. (11-75)

You should not single-handedly criticize how things are. It is a wrong to think that you must perform better than anyone else while witnessing in the countryside. It is wrong for you to wish for your own victory so that you can be commended by me and the church. You can receive commendations, but you should not have such desire; instead, you should think, "What can I do to be connected to the realm of the parental heart? How can I be linked to the heart of God? What can I do to develop a firm relationship with God which no one can interfere with?" This type of internal matters are much more important than the external things. (24-141)

I do not want to brag about your accomplishments in witnessing and enlightenment, but rather want to boast about how you were praying with tears in cold and hunger while clinging on to the stone roots. (11-75)

Your going out witnessing to suffer, be hungry, and be cursed at should not be done for yourself. You should have the attitude, "I bear the cross representing my family, brothers, and sisters, and am going to lay the foundation on which we can erect our nation." (15-311)

Even when you are witnessing, if you are doing it for yourself and thinking about yourself, then... You should be thinking, "I came to die, in order to die. By spreading myself like seeds, as Jesus did, I can reap the harvest after the bud sprouts out. The bud will break out from ground only when it has absorbed blood and flesh. Otherwise, it will never come to pass. You will face accusations if you do not pass through the public life. When you can pass these requirements, then you can surpass the fallen world. You will be going over the growth stage. (96-118)

You should first inspire ten people to join. Do you understand? After you join, you should witness to ten people quickly. Witnessing requires sacrifice. If you can do that, then God will certainly help you. If you do it, God will help you from the opposite side.

If you complain while you witness to ten people, how can you inspire anyone to join? If you complain before the ten people, "Regardless of what the providence may be, what is this?" then do you think they will listen to your words? Would they listen or would they not? If you complain, no matter how much you praise them and plead with them to listen to your words, you can never witness to them.

Then what can you do? Since you cannot complain, you must sacrifice and persevere. The only way is to sacrifice and persevere. Isn't that true? If you can be patient and sacrificial, then would the ten people say that you are bad? [They will say that we are good.] At least you know that. Would the whole look after your well-being or bring you down? They will look after you. If you cannot persevere and overcome, then even if they were once taking good care of you, they may stop doing that. On the contrary, if you continue to persevere and overcome, then they will continue to care for you. Therefore, you must persevere and be patient till the end. You must be patient and overcome. You have to persevere and be patient. (44-17)

The same rules apply when you go out witnessing. During witnessing you should not go back and rest in your room. You can be resting while walking on the road, you can be staying up the whole night, you can be having a meal. Having a meal should not be done on a table. You can also eat from a lunch box during your journey on the road. How beautiful is that? It is a world that others are not aware of. (72-325)

For witnessing, you must have audacity. You should continue your mission while completely disregarding whether or not other people are cursing at you. When you are witnessing, you are bound to be cursed at by other people. The reason is because you are engaged in activities that others are not involved in, and wherever you go you cause dogs to bark loudly. So, you are bound to be cursed at. (42-171)

A person must be audacious, must have audacity. I never tell you to starve to death because there is nothing to eat. I do not tell you to starve to death. You should go to a place where they are having a meal and ask them to share it with you. Since you have a mouth, you have no problem in making that plea, saying a greeting, and then getting something to eat. I went through all those experiences. When I am hungry, since I have lived for the sake of the nation, heaven and earth more than anyone else and am thereby more entitled to have a meal than anyone else, I bravely tell a person who is having a meal that I have not had a single meal that day and ask him to share his food with me. This is how imposing you should be. (94-102)
