6) The Mission of the Minister who is Abel

From now on, we have to restore them through indemnity. Restoration through indemnity is the only way. Who is to walk the path of indemnity? Abel is supposed to walk it. Then between the church leader and a new member who is Abel? [Church leader] Now, can Cain walk the road of indemnity? Answer me. Is there such a thing? There isn't. The path of indemnity is supposed to be walked by Abel. Leaders of the Unification Church do not understand this. They forgot it all. You have to understand this. All of you who are the representatives of different nations must also know this.

Who walks the path of indemnity? Cain is not the one. It is Abel. In shedding tears, he must shed first, and even in going hungry, he must experience hunger first. He must receive curses first, and he must be beaten first. This is the way that he can walk the path of indemnity. When someone joins, then you have to listen to everything they have to say from their past life, and from the parental position you have to give counsel, shedding tears and praying for him or her; this is what you have to do.

When someone close to you is leaving, you cannot rest your heart at peace, so you accompany him or her to his or her house, and when the morning breaks, you are so concerned that you wait for him or her in front of the house; you must be able to do this. In the end, you have to become someone that likes people more than does anyone else. You have to be the one who loves Cain the most. There the path of indemnity... Only by doing so, will that person follow your path in the right way. They are to follow the path of indemnity. For this reason, you are to walk the path of indemnity.

Now, who is supposed to bring unity? [Leader] It is in Cain's nature to bite off, rip up and repeatedly interfere. Therefore, you have to pray shedding tears before God, and pray staying up through the nights. You have to be the sick patient of sick patients, and the concerned one of concerned ones, and in this way you have to understand that the path of indemnity is reporting to Heaven about the sorrowful story. You have to feel as if you are going to faint after being surrounded by some mysterious things. Your heart can never be at peace. (88-263)

Who is supposed to pay indemnity for Cain. Abel? Is Cain supposed to do that or is Abel supposed to do that? Abel is supposed to do it. A priest is not supposed to sit idly and do nothing constructive. Only after he exerts himself to the utmost and invests all of his effort with a heart of devotion does he deserve to be in that position. This is the Principle. The is the process of re-creation. You should try this out. (75-167)

Some of you today say as soon as you arrive at some place, "Since Teacher authorized me to be a regional leader or a district leader, I am Abel." This person has not become Abel. He was sent to do the mission of Abel. However, without even doing the mission of Abel, he is saying, "Serve me, obey my orders." When parents order children to do things, if they just sit idly and give the orders then those parents are stepparents. Do you understand? They are stepparents. Real parents will accompany the children and work together. They will teach while they work. Isn't this true? It is, right? [Yes] This is a true parent. (75-168)

Up to now you have had the wrong idea on the Unification Church's concept of love between Cain and Abel. You think that leaders are unconditionally Abel, but this is not the case. Abel is supposed to save Cain. After that, only by becoming one, they can go before their mother. Even if you have not become one with the leader, if you have attained unity among yourselves the leader will come and join you there. This is the meaning of the saying that whenever there are two or three people praying, God will be with them. More than praying alone, if two or three people gather together to pray, then.... Do you have friends for whom you can carve out your flesh and give your blood? Do you have such comrades?

From today, you have to throw away thoughts that you had up to now centered on the leader and take up the ideology that always centers on the members. Why is this so? If there is a head of the family, then in order to create Heaven in the family, the head must enforce the perspective not for his own sake but for the sake of the family members. Otherwise, Heaven cannot be built in the family. It is the same. We must change what has been centered on our own self in the Unification Church to something that is centered on all, so that the effort can be focused on linking the congregation of love horizontally. It won't do if we are trying to do only vertically.

Accordingly, you must love the True Parents in the same way that you love God, and love all of humanity just as you love the True Parents. You are to become one with all people in the world. You have to digest the environment that you do not like, in which you can smell a bad odor from the feet, mouth, and body of the people next to you. You have to wash their feet. If they do not have clothes to wear, then you should give them your clothes to wear. (applause) (115-56)

If you cannot experience heavenly love on earth, you cannot go to the Kingdom of Heaven. Have you sincerely loved a Cain-type person? In order to go to the Kingdom of Heaven, your love should surpass the parental love and conjugal love of the satanic world. Parents have even died for the sake of their child in the fallen world; still, our love must surpass the parental love of the fallen world.

You cannot go to the Kingdom of Heaven alone. One man and one woman should be united. In order to go through this process, one person of the couple should surely become one with Cain. A proper environment is needed. Before receiving parents or spouse, you are to set up a standard of unity between brothers and sisters. This is Unification thinking.

When Satan recognizes the condition that you loved Cain as much as you loved Abel, then he will go away. When rearing the babies of your trinity partners, you should be two or three times more devoted than with your own babies. If the trinity cannot make oneness, how can we create world unity? Three nations should be one. You have to love the world more than you love the Lord. Father received persecution from three nations, three ages and three sovereignties. The trinity is one. Therefore, when the three families become one, they can hold ceremonies instead of Father. If you neglect the trinity and just focus on your family's well-being, you will perish. You shouldn't represent Father just in his name; rather you should represent Father in his responsibility and heart.

By Cain killing Abel, history went the wrong way; so all humankind became Satan's children-the children of a servant. Human beings were supposed to be princes and princesses, but they became the children of the servant. How much was God stifled? Jesus, the Messiah, in place of the original Adam, came as a luminary, one with God and God's love in spirit and body. Therefore, all men and women in the satanic realm can be attracted to the Lord, treasuring the day of His coming. That's why history is the history of indemnity. No other explanation is necessary.
