TEAR DOWN the Walls of Resentment | | 2nd Button Short- "Only Begotten" Contradictions | | |
“You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not murder; and whoever murders will be liable to judgment.’ But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council; and whoever says, ‘You fool!’ will be liable to the hell of fire.
So if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you, leave your gift there before the altar and go. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift. Come to terms quickly with your accuser while you are going with him to court, lest your accuser hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the guard, and you be put in prison. Truly, I say to you, you will never get out until you have paid the last penny.
Matthew 5:20-26
In restoration, it is when the divine mind or soul becomes the master of the human body that a person's life can become God-centered. It is as if God's mind were coming to dwell within that person. As a person responds to his divine mind that person will find his purpose and goal. Fallen man has no hope or direction unless that connection with the divine mind takes place. Until then, man's existence cannot have value.
SMM, The Spirit World And Physical World, February 6, 1977

Hello Richard,
At the beginning of the service Gregg Noll spoke about how the 2nd King, on the foundation of President Trump’s election victory, feels led to focus on Taiwan, and to the liberation of the 1.4 billion people in Communist China. He is putting himself and Yeonah Nim at the front line, and refreshing his study of the Chinese language.
The Champumonim prayer they gather to do on Wednesday nights is a condition for his protection.
The Israelites’ 40-year course in the wilderness was training to enter Canaan. If we develop strong communities of faith in the USA, that will give him the greatest joy.

Then Regis Hanna, who is serving as pastor on the Cheongpyeong community in Tennessee, gave the sermon. He started by asking: What is a patriot? Someone who loves their country. They see the goodness in their country and want to grow and preserve that.
Many who criticize America don’t know what it’s like in other countries, where there is rampant corruption in government and a lack of freedom and opportunity, except for the elites.
God told Adam and Eve, “don’t touch, don’t look, don’t eat the “fruit!” Lucifer told Eve that her eyes would be opened, but instead her “I’s” were opened, where she saw everything centered on herself. Then she multiplied that to Adam. All became centered on their own egos. Children are born “I” centered, but adults should be “you” centered. Goodness means being focusing on the other.

Regis said he was angry at his older brother and felt jealous of him for many years. He finally realized that the problem was inside himself.
Father said there are walls in the spirit world created by resentment. We commit 2 kinds of sin: towards God and towards others. Our relationship with others is key. If there is discord that can affect our relationship with God as well. That is why we need the Messiah. We can’t pay the price by ourselves, but we can and should make small indemnity conditions.

After receiving God’s direction, True Father chose to walk to North Korea from the South, when others, who were fleeing the Communists, were going the other way. After he was tortured to the extent that he was clinically dead, he miraculously revived and prayed for his torturer, who sought to end Father’s life two more times. Finally, this torturer, who had been a Christian before being given this evil role in the prison, repented and returned to faith.
Growth is not automatic. We have to use our conscious, creative effort. Each individual and family is unique. If we don’t make conditions, we don’t grow. That’s the human portion of responsibility.

He spoke about the 2nd King’s 21,000 bowing condition in Korea. Hyung Jin Nim asked True Father what his favorite Chinese character was. Father said it was “Jeongsun” which means sincerity. Hyung Jin Nim wrote that character in his own blood.
Regis concluded by speaking about how he and Liam were hiking to the top of the mountain at Cheongpyeong. He noticed the charcoal remains of campfires, which he realized were created by Hyung Jin Nim during his all-night prayers/meditations even when it was cold. He made many conditions without talking about it. That is an example for all of us.

Freedom without self-control leads to hedonism. The U.S. Constitution protects our freedoms, but also gives responsibility to citizens.
He discussed the importance of the November election in PA, where decisions will be made whether to retain leftist Democrats on the Supreme Court, which will affect future rulings on election integrity.
Pray for the liberation of China which would open up the path to return to pray in True Father’s hometown, Cheonju, in North Korea.

By David Stewart, UTS 85
The new faith of the Only Begotten Daughter (OBD) centers on Mother’s claim that, “the founder (True Father) was born with Original Sin,” and that on the contrary since “Hak Ja Han was born without the Original Sin, she took away the original sin of the founder” (Dec 30, 2016). “The process of changing the lineage occurred while I was in my mother’s womb. This is something you have to believe.” (HJH, July 1, 2014).
Because of his "sinful birth," Sun Myung Moon became the Only Begotten Son (OBS) by two events. Father’s course is that, according to the Chambumoron, he was born as it were ‘unbegotten’, is then ‘rebegotten’ through his experience with Jesus in 1935, achieving OBS status in 1960 by marrying Mother.
In contrast, Hak Ja Han teaches that she is the OBD by birth, like Jesus was the OBS by birth. This is why ‘God was born 2,000 years ago,’ (as reported by Demian Dunkley, as discussed in part one of this essay). Hak Ja Han said very recently, “True Mother, the Only Begotten Daughter of Heavenly Parent, Holy Mother Han is the Heavenly Mother who had been hidden for 6,000 years”. (Mar 18, 2025) Clearly this is all very confused as if there is only “One”, how can both Jesus and Father be that “One”? This is why Divine Principle, and prior to Father’s passing, Unificationists rarely, if ever, used Only Begotten terminology.
There is a feeling in Demian Dunkley’s lectures that, due to his "sinful birth," Father is inferior to the OBD, Hak Ja Han, and the OBS, Jesus, whose mission he ‘inherits’. Presumably, Demian suggests, Father is lesser for not having “the same faculty, ability,” they both possess from being born “Only Begotten.”
But, Unificationists believe, or used to, that whereas Jesus died with faithless disciples, unable to reveal all the truths he knew, Father could live, and revealed much greater truths. On the foundation of faithful disciples, he could become the victorious True Parent, and then bless a very grateful Jesus. There was NEVER a sense of Father being inferior to Jesus, regardless of personal beliefs about whether he was born with or without Original Sin, which was not of great importance to many of us.

"Sanctuary Church" is short-hand for "World Peace and Unification Sanctuary" which is from calligraphy on a scroll presented to Hyung Jin Moon by his father, Rev. Sun Myung Moon. The purpose of the "World Peace and Unification Sanctuary, Inc." is to "preserve and propagate the Biblically-based teachings of Reverend Sun Myung Moon."
