Due to the Fall, we received Satan's blood. If the progenitors of mankind, Adam and Eve, had not fallen, they would have remained God's children without sin. But they became Satan's children through the Fall. Originally, human beings would be governed only by God. God is to be the only Lord of human beings, but Satan became our lord through the immoral relationship between Satan and human beings.

Foundation for the Separation Providence

The Principle teaches that love is the governing power. That is why Satan has a right to claim ownership over human beings even though his love is immoral. According to the Principle of Creation, God is the original owner of human beings. Therefore, both God and Satan can claim ownership over human beings. But it is physically impossible to divide Adam into two-one for God, and the other for Satan. God had to set up a certain rule for dividing a human being from the viewpoint of the Principle. God set up the rule of separation in terms of internal-external relationship and subject-object relationship, and in the position of God being an internal entity and of creation being an external entity. Specifically, God divided fallen Adam and Eve into two through their two children.

Cain is the representative of Satan and Abel is the representative of sinless Adam. God put the second son in the internal position. Abel represents the second love between Adam and Eve, which contains less evil elements.

With Abel as the fruit of the second love and Cain as the fruit of the first love, God took Abel because Adam and Eve's relationship was more principled than Eve and the archangel's relationship.

In the original system, the order of love should be from God to Adam and then to the archangel, so the position in restoration must also start from God to Abel and then to Cain. God reestablishes the Principle by restoring this formula first.

The blood lineage of humankind was twisted by the fallen action. Satan's blood occupies humankind. That is why restoration should start from the origin, and the second son Abel must restore the first son's birthright.

The Fall started from a mother's womb, so restoration must be established inside a mother's womb. The womb was the original starting spot of evil, so we must revert to the place of the first cause in restoration. That is why God initiated the providence to restore the birthright through these two brothers. Cain had to go down to Abel's position, and Abel had to go up to Cain's position-the first son's position. But Cain killed Abel. This action was just the repetition of Adam and Eve's fallen action. This action created the same condition on which Satan controlled Adam, and was the opposite of restoration. This next part is quite difficult to understand, so I will explain it with a diagram.

Because the distance was too far when the brothers were of different ages, God started to look for brothers much closer in age. In other words, God wanted to lead this providence for restoration toward a standard much closer to the origin. The best way is to push Cain and Abel back into their mother's womb, but this is physically impossible. This is like overlapping at the center. I coincides with II. The part of I is repeated in the realm of II.

So God's providence proceeded through the twin brothers, Jacob and Esau. The same principle applied to them. Jacob had to take his elder brother Esau's position, and Esau had to go down to his younger brother Jacob's position. The twin brothers' mother was Rebekah. When she was pregnant, the two babies inside her womb were fighting, so she asked God about it. God said, "Two nations are in your womb, and two people from within you will be separated; one person will be stronger than the other, and the older will serve the younger."

Jacob set up the condition not to be accused by Satan. He bought the birthright from Esau with bread and lentils, so Satan could not accuse him even though he went on to steal the birthright from Esau. The birthright was restored and their father's blessing was given to Jacob; but Esau was extremely angry and he wanted to kill Jacob, just as Cain killed Abel.
