We must unite the denominations. However, if we don't have the ability to distinguish between things done well and things not done well, we cannot unite them. We should not insist on unification without any preparation. We must have some content which can cause them to unite. We must unite the thought systems, but without having united the denominations, the thought systems cannot be united. In that sense, we must know that the Unification Church has appeared carrying the banner of responsibility for world history. So we are saying let's unify the churches. The spirit world cooperates in uniting the churches. Everyone who attends the Unification Church will know this fact. Do you know or not? Do you know that the spirit world is cooperating with the Unification Church or do you not?

How big is the spirit world? How many spirits will be on our side? Around three billion? All of the people who have come to the earth and left it are hanging in the spirit world. Whether they are hanging upside down or hanging sideways, however they may be hanging, all of them are hanging in the spirit world. All of them are to cooperate with the Unification Church in the future. Their worry is that even though they say they will help, we may not allow them to participate. So now the spirit world is in an uproar. Do you know these things? In the spirit world there are spirits who believed in Buddhism, spirits who believed in Confucianism, spirits of believers from Islam; in fact, spirits who believed in all the religions are gathered together. These groups are to cooperate.

The fortune of unification is rising in the spirit world. If this happens, no matter how much one doesn't want it, the fortune of unification will come here on earth. When winter passes, spring is to come, but if someone thinks spring shouldn't come and tries to defend himself against spring, can he stop the spring which is coming? If you say you will defend yourself during the winter, it doesn't work either. spring flies in from a different place. You cannot resolve it from within. If you want to solve something it has to be done from another place, not from within.

The Unification Church is asserting that we should unite, but that unification plan is not within; it is somewhere else. That other place is the spirit world. Unification will be achieved without fail. Christianity says they want to unite. Does it seem they will be able to unite or not? [No.] If it were you, would it be possible? People who think that unification will happen, raise your hands. In order to do that, we all must become people who will do it instead of others. The problem lies there. (24-264)

The Unification Church must lead the way and unite the denominations. In Korea we have been insulted. Everyone says that the Unification Church is a bad place, but even newspaper reporters say that they cannot help but acknowledge that we have the ability to foster the atmosphere of supra-denominationalism. You must know that the spirit world is cooperating from behind the scenes. (24-267)
