1) The Wrong Standard of Birth Today, people of the world do not know that even if they occupy a prestigious position in society, their birth was spiritually sullied. They don't know that they were born with a lineage connected to God's enemy Satan and to his life and lineage. This is a serious problem. People are born out of Satan's love. Thus, the fallen world came to be reached by man, and Satan's love was reached even to the parents. Life and lineage became one centered on Satan's illicit love, and that blood is running through the lives of my father and my mother. Today, this blood is mixed in me. The fruit of Satan's life, love, and lineage is myself. Do you understand? I am the best fruit of love, but we are still linked to those three things. I am referring to fallen people. Until now, we did not know this. We could not imagine what occurred at the foundation of human history. True Parents came in this age and for the first time proclaimed the origin of the fall. Your blood and all your five senses belong to Satan's love, life, and lineage. It is the same as saying a satanic world is running through your veins. Satan automatically made a fruit of his ideal, and God has been trying ever since to save men and women, helping them become original, pure, perfected human beings. Where did you begin? You began from Satan, from Satan's love. Did you see how you started? No, you didn't. When did it happen? A long time ago. A long time has passed since the owner of this house signed the contract, as it were. Even if a new resident came, even after 6,000 years, the person who has the contract papers is the owner of the house. Do you understand?' It is the same thing with fallen nature. You must know that your starting point was corrupt. America and Americans have no understanding of the fall of humanity. We do not know how we are connected to the 6,000-year history of restoration. But the root of the original essence is there. A central root is connected to the central seed. Everything is connected to the central root. Since your start was all wrong, you must return to the original point. Since humankind began as false parents, we must return and do it over again as true parents. How serious is this? It's imperative that you be connected to God's love, life, and lineage. That's why you did a ceremony of the change of the blood lineage at your Blessing-the time of your restart-didn't you? You must believe in that more than your life. You should not think it was just a Unification Church ceremony or a common religious rite. It's like an inoculation that can give new life to replace the dead love. It's a detoxification shot. Through this ceremony, your false love was forgiven and you were Blessed; so you must not entertain other thoughts. Our own ancestors fell, and we know how this one grave mistake sacrificed all of human history. Knowing this, we cannot tread the same path again. Absolutely not. Have you thought about the ghastly price that has been paid throughout history because of man's use of illicit love in the fallen universe? You must clearly know how vast the impact and influence of the fall were on individuals, families, societies, nations, and the world. You must know this clearly. So you were born in corruption. Look at yourself in the mirror: This is your birth. Such an illicit love! (Father spits.) This nose, this mouth, even if your face looks good! (Father spits again.) You should spit at yourself. This body has been Satan's central channel. So we must deny our bodies. We were born corrupt. How terrible that birth is corrupt! We must cry out and reverse the corruption. (216:109)
