What is the Unification Church supposed to do from now on? Those who join the church go through the training course. The way that they go through the training course is that first they should go through the 2-day workshop; then? [7-day workshop] 7-day workshop; then? [21-day workshop] 21-day workshop; then? [40-day workshop] 40-day workshop. So they need to go through 70-days of training. What does this 70-day training period represent? People who have fallen due to ignorance can through understanding restore what was lost. Moreover, although they have been living their life in their own ways so far, during this time they are to completely cleanse their habits. Then, what is the two-day workshop? It is time to change their thought and mentality which have been going the opposite direction, and put them on the right course. To talk about it in terms of a stage in the providence for restoration, it corresponds to the providence for the foundation for restoration. For this reason, people who have been living up to now in a chaotic world will say that they must go to the two-day workshop. They are to enter the time of ideological shock-absorbing. So, the first two-day workshop is the time to make people be awakened to their own situation. After receiving the two day workshop, one can compare the conventional mentality and the Unification Church mentality, and one can change the concepts that one has been holding on to, saying, "This is good. Up to now, I have been wrong." Next, what is the 7-day workshop? The seven-day workshop is entering the period of the formation stage. This corresponds to the dispensation of the Old Testament Age. Through it, by entering the completion stage of the Old Testament Age, what will take place? You have to think that you are going forward to meet the messiah of the New Testament Age. Do you understand what I am saying? For this reason, receiving the 7-day workshop corresponds to the Old Testament Age, and it is the time to liberate character on the formation level. This is how I see it. So after receiving the seven-day workshop, from the transformation of concept, one has moved on to the transformation of oneself. The trainee will by himself get rid of the old concepts with the attitude, "After hearing the Word, I realize that I have to also become a holy being and win over Satan. I have to flee from this satanic world." When he makes the decision by himself, generally after the week's time is passed he will be on the right direction. Moreover, in the seven-day workshop, during the seven-day course, one must complete the number 7 of the Principle course. This is because man was made after six days. You have to firmly establish your identity as the citizen of God and His kingdom, as one who recognizes God absolutely, and not one who recognizes Satan. If you become the citizen of God, then you have to become God's person and with God's love complete your responsibility. Next, what is the 21-day workshop? This corresponds to the New Testament Age. Through this, you have to become someone who can serve the savior to indemnify the failure to serve Jesus as the savior. In other words, it is perfecting the character of John the Baptist before the substantial messiah. Do you understand what I mean? In other words, what this means is that it is completing the qualification as an adopted son. This 21-day workshop is the crucial moment, and as long as one passes through the 21-day workshop, one can become a member. He will sacrifice himself even if you don't tell him to. For this reason, "workshop, workshop!" You must be obsessed with workshops. Next, when people receive the 40-day workshop, because it corresponds to the Completed Testament era, it is the time to engraft. Do you understand? Because this is where one meets the Messiah and becomes one with him, finally he is to be engrafted to the position of a child who can carry on the lineage of heaven. In this way, he is to enter a position higher than that of Adam before the Fall and inherit the qualifications to become the child of God. In general, as long as people receive the forty day workshop, they will say, "Since I have to go this way, I should become a leader and walk the numerological path of restoration through indemnity. I have to go through the path of home church." Leaders must travel through this road. After receiving such training... Before that, never give them work to do. You can give them a mission, but you should give them the mission of witnessing. In this way, centering on the number 40 of forty days, centering on the number 4, they have to pass through all the training that will prepare them to fight with Satan. Having done so and raising the standard of heart higher than anyone in the satanic world, these trainees must rise to the position where Satan can publicly recognize the standard of heart connected to heaven. All the things that belong to you and your standard of heart must make a connection with heaven. Until now, owing to the Fall, the situation has become like this, centering on Satan, Satan's possessions, Satan's body, and Satan's heart; yet all this must be indemnified centering on God and gradually linking to God's heart, God's body, and God's belongings. After that all these must be offered to God. These are not yours. Originally, all possessions belong to God and not you. (compilation of sections, 75-94, 99-267, 107-241, 172-47)
