These days I do not cry, right? If I cry, God cries. The spiritual world cries. Even if I am in a very sorrowful situation, as a man who has the responsibility to comfort God, I cannot cry even if my younger brother is dead. At that time I should not cry, but must have what seems to be a cold attitude.

Why did the words "tribal messiah" appear? For what reason did the words "tribal messiah" emerge? The position of the Messiah is the position of parent. Without becoming a subject of true love, one cannot fulfill the position of parent. Even in the fallen world something remains that is from the original world-that is the parents' mind that lives for the sake of their children. Parents' love for their children is the only standard of heart from the original world that continues with any dignity in the fallen world. It is a realm of heart that is slowly being extinguished, but is like a kindling that still remains in its essential form since the creation of the world.

The crab apple of Taegu is famous, right? Sariwon's crab apple is also famous. If they are the same color and shape, you can exchange the Taegu crab apple with the Sariwon crab apple. When they are the same, it is all right.

Who is the most famous person in the Unification Church? I am, right? What about when you are the same as I? When they are same, even if they are exchanged, God will think it is all right. If you, who have been exchanged this way, play the role of the head of the Unification Church, would God complain or not? [No.] Then when I say to Unification Church members, "Whom do you want to resemble?" what would they say? [Father!] Right, they would like to resemble me. What then should Rev. Moon of the Unification Church say? I have to tell them to resemble me.

The road of restoration through indemnity is traveled by coming to resemble me. \Without restoring the lost standard, indemnity is not fully paid. That is why if you are thinking of taking the road of indemnity, you must come to resemble me. You must shed blood and restore through indemnity the standard that was lost a long time ago. The dispensation for restoring a heavenly nation proceeds through the strategy of willingly receiving persecution.

Since Father has suffered, should you suffer or not? [We must suffer.] Some children from a rich household may squander the wealth they inherited from their parents in one generation after their mother and father die. Why is that? They are different from their mother and father, who did not inherit anything but amassed their wealth by themselves. Even one penny was precious for them. In that sense their son and daughter are different. They will perish because they are not like their parents. (1990.2.16. Hannam-dong House)

The religious body of the Unification Church is a tribe. It moves with my blood. It should cry when I cry and be happy when I am happy. It is my blood relative. We are establishing a new country of heaven by demolishing walls and then uniting into one all races, nations and cultures. When this new united people becomes sacred, the heavenly country will appear. When you live as people of that holy country, you will connect with the Kingdom of Heaven. That does not happen with words.

Each individual has to work to proclaim this new people on every level, from the family up to heaven and earth. Last time I came here I said that one person in every Blessed family has to be mobilized. When the nation is having difficulty, we should spread out through the whole nation and fight for its life. I told you that this kind of era of national destiny is coming. This is why I sent your families to the countryside.

Now is the time to declare a victory centering on your tribe. To do this, Rev. Moon has to set up the absolute condition of victory on the worldwide level for all people and nations to go in the direction of Heaven. Without doing that I cannot enter the nation and proclaim that the last liberation is at hand by uniting tribes and following the public law. When I proclaim, "Satan be gone," your ancestors will come into your families and play the role of teacher. Things will be different.

If you can say, "In our family we have loved Heaven more than we have loved our parents, our spouses or our children, and we have sacrificed all our possessions, made an offering of our household, and are raising a heavenly family in order to fulfill the hope of our people," then you will be accepted. (1987.9.13. Headquarters Church)
