When you look at the Teacher, from what position do you see him? You have to find a leader who says, "Let you become the chosen people," and make you go forward even if that requires beating you and drive you with a sword. If Moses had used a sword to drive the Israelites, then even if one hundred of them are killed, all of the six hundred thousand of them will not have been doomed.

No matter what kind of ideological crisis we face, there is no problem. That which blocks our path must be abandoned. You must desire that the leader lead you like that. If you do not go, then you will perish. So, even if by doing it this way, we have to fulfill our mission of restoring Canaan on the global level. This mission still sits on the shoulders of the Unification Church members. There has to be a leader who will make people go forward by beating them if they do not want to go. All you have to do is move forward. Only by doing so, you can become the historical victors, the standard-bearers of the time, and the pioneers of the future. (12-60)

A leader should want his followers to be fed and clothed well; however, if they are facing a crisis, he must send them out even if that means sending them to the path of misery. How frustrated must Moses have been for him to leave his people and pray for forty days? Moses knew that they were about to pass through violent storms.

Even today, I was heartbroken as I saw the members walk over. The more you feel that way, the more you should have the determination to drive them out and fulfill the ideals of the universe as soon as possible. (13-73)

Would it better to have a leader who smiles, dances and plays with you every time you meet him, or would it be better to have someone who will drive you to work harder? Which type of person is better? [One who drives us] Is that really so? [Yes] This is how it is.

This is the fate of the Unification Church. You cannot do anything about your fate. It's a fate that we have no control over. We must first fulfill it and then say something about it. We must first carry it out, and then talk. We must fulfill our responsibility before we sleep, eat and rest. Is this a good way of guiding you? [It is a good way] Then, do you do it because you have no other choice or because you are happy to do it? [Because we are happy to do it] (97-19)

Some people say that we are self-righteous. However, absolutism and self-righteousness are linked together. For this reason, without passing through the process of highest self-righteousness, one can never have the true standard. The only question, however, is whether or not this self-righteousness can maintain eternal quality and safeguard the truth. Self-righteous by itself is not good. Do you understand? (21-154)
