What is your pride? The True Parents. Where are the True Parents? When you are asked, "Where is the Kingdom of Heaven," you have to say, "It is within my mind." It exists within our minds. My thinking cannot be just my thinking alone when I become centered upon the True Parents and the will of the True Parents. This foundation must expand to become the foundation of the family-level heaven, the foundation of the tribal-level heaven, the foundation of the national-level heaven, and the foundation of the world-level heaven. All of them come from within the mind. Please follow the True Parents. The True Parents have turned all the barriers in the world upside down and have destroyed all those things. Now the age of persecution against the Unification Church is over. When I sent overseas missionaries to 140 countries, they were initially persecuted in those countries; but now all persecution is gone. There is no more opposition. Within my own generation, I have stopped the history of martyrdom. In the case of Christianity, because Jesus was not able to achieve victory in the Senate of Rome, Christians had to be persecuted and sacrificed during the 400-year period under the Roman Empire. It is a terrible thing seen from God's will. But I have solved all those problems within my own generation. Who exists within your mind? The True Parents? Do the True Parents exist within your mind? What are the True Parents doing? Fallen parents sowed the seed of fallen love and drove the whole world into the realm of the Fall, but the True Parents have connected this entire fallen world to the heavenly world with love that transcends this fallen sphere. The True Parents are the central figures of love who connect heaven and earth. Therefore, the conclusion is that you have to love the True Parents more than you love the satanic world. Unless you love the True Parents more than your own physical parents, more than your own physical body, more than your own spouse, more than your own sons and daughters, you cannot inherit the victorious indemnity foundation of the Kingdom of Heaven that Father built. Father has become famous in the Republic of Korea, hasn't he? What do you think? Am I famous or not? But are those people truly able to see Father? They don't know Father, except through my works. They want to see me, but how can they see me? They cannot do that. You are the representatives of Father. You are the problem. Only when you live with your heart and mind centering upon me and live physically as my representative and become those leaders who can deal with this satanic world, can we make it possible for the satanic world to disappear.
