3. Introduction
The Providence of Completion-Stage Resurrection
The era when people are to be
resurrected both spiritually and physically
through the returning Christ
and complete the providence of resurrection is called
the age of the providence of completion-stage resurrection.
All those who live during this era are to receive the
merit of the age based on God's work of completion-stage
resurrection.
4. Introduction
Christ at the Second Advent brings the new truth with
which to fulfill the promises of the Old and New Testaments;
it may be called the Completed Testament.
By believing in and serving the Lord and devoting
themselves to his work, people of this era are to be
fully resurrected both spiritually and physically,
become divine spirits, and live in the Kingdom of Heaven
on earth.
When they shed their physical bodies, as spirits they
will enter and abide in the Kingdom of Heaven in heaven,
which is the divine-spirit level of the spirit world.
5. Introduction
Spiritual Phenomena in the Last Days
Adam and Eve fell at the top of the growth stage.
Human beings are now being restored to the top of
the growth stage through the providence of restoration,
having passed through the Old Testament Age and
the New Testament Age.
The Last Days is the time when people return to the
spiritual level reached by the first human ancestors
just prior to the Fall.
6. Introduction
Today, being the Last Days, is the time when people
throughout the world are reaching this level.
Just as Adam and Eve prior to the Fall were able to
converse directly with God, today many people on earth
can communicate with the spirit world.
The prophecy that in the Last Days,
"I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh,
and your sons and daughters shall prophesy,
and your young men shall see visions,
and your old men shall dream dreams,“ Acts 2:17 CEV|KJ|NI
may be explained based on this insight from the Principle.

8. In 1913 two men in Western Europe, in different age
and unknown to each other, began to undergo a very
unusual experience:
CG Jung and J.R.R. Tolkien stepped above a threshold
and entered the world of imagination.
For Jung this process, which he called active imagination,
took the final shape by Liber Novus, also known as
the Red Book,
which became the seed for almost all of his subsequent
works.
1913
9. The rebirth of a new image of God in his soul and
developing a new worldview in the form of
a psychological and theological cosmology.
They had the shadow of eternity upon them
and I could feel the truth of it.
The Red Book told of the battle between
the world of reality and the world of the spirit. /page 68
1913
10. For Tolkien this fantasy revealed the world of
Middle-earth, whose stories and myths
eventually led to the writing of The Lord of the Rings,
a book that even within its own contextual history,
called the Red Book of the West march.
Even in different areas, namely, psychology and philology –
there are many syncronistic parallels between Jung and
Tolkien's "Red bookperiods“;
the style of their works of art,
the nature of their visions and dreams and
a similarity of worldview that emerged from their experiences
are all signs that they may have trampled sometimes,
the same paths through the archetypal realm.
1913
11. W.B. Yeats: Irish poet and drama writer.
After the peace between the Allies and Germany
was signed as the Treaty of Versailles, June 28, 1919,
Yeats 1920 published a work entitled "The Second Coming”.
He received the Nobel Prize in Literature 1923.
1920
12. Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
1920
13. Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: a waste of desert sand;
A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
Wind shadows of the indignant desert birds.
1920
14. That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?
Comment: Sun Myung Moon,
Lord of The Second Advent
was born 1920.
1920
15. In a 1929 poem entitled “The Lamp of the East,”
by Rabindranath Tagore, the great Bengali poet and
Nobel laureate, wrote these prophetic lines:
“In the golden age of Asia
Korea was one of its lamp-bearers
And that lamp is waiting to be lighted once again
For the illumination of the East…”
1929
16. After True Father's arrival (to Pyeong Yang),
some people began receiving revelations about him.
These devout believers found him through
the guidance of those in the spirit world.
Many of those who came had been long prepared for
the coming of True Father, and among them were
people who had been prepared
to receive True Father from even before he was born.
1946
17. The spirit world transcends time and space, and the
connections of the world of the heart are linked in
mysterious and profound ways.
The people who had thus become connected to
True Father were so overwhelmed by true love that
when they so much as touched the hem of his clothes,
they felt as if they were floating on air and could dance
for sheer joy.

19. Messianic qualifications: True Father - SunMyungMoon
Testimonies of Divine Power
The Early Years (in Korea), 1920-53, by Michael Breen
In one sermon, Moon taught that Korea was the second Israel
and that the return of Jesus would take place in Korea. But, he
said, the return would not happen in either the spiritual or
supernatural way that Christians tended to expect. He said that,
just as the mission of the Old Testament prophet Elijah passed
in the time of Jesus to John the Baptist, so the mission of Jesus
would pass to another.
20. After this sermon, In-ju prayed to ask God where in Korea the
Lord would come. In her prayer she had a vision.
Jesus appeared, walked into the room and bowed his head and
began to pray: "This daughter of yours has to go a very long
and difficult way. Let her complete this journey without going
astray."
The voice was Moon's. As Jesus finished praying and said
"Amen," she looked up but it was no longer Jesus.
The face had changed to Moon's.
She felt the answer to her prayer had been given.
Moon was the Christ.
21. 1952 Mrs. Kang
"He began teaching her about the "Last Days of the World" and
the "Second Advent of the Messiah." He explained that the
Messiah would not come on the clouds as she had been taught;
but he would come as a physical man to their own Korea."
As he spoke, Mrs. Kang thought to herself, "Well, that would
certainly be nice, but the things he says are impossible."
"He told her that in 1950 Jesus had appeared in the skies of
North Korea, and during the Korean War an airline pilot saw
Jesus very clearly in the sky. The South Korean newspapers
even printed articles about it."

24. When the Unification Church started witnessing
for the first time, the members did not have to witness
with words.
People were witnessed to through their dreams.
In dreams, people were told,
"Go to the Unification Church!"
When people did not follow the direction given in their
dreams, they were hit with a bat.
The spirit world witnessed to many members this way.
Ancestors said to their descendants,
"If you go to such and such a place, you will meet a
person called Mr. Moon. /SMM 1971/10/10
50s:
25. 50s: Dr Young Oon Kim
”After arriving in Korea, I had become quite ill from the water
and living conditions in Pusan, flooded as it was with war
refugees.
A year later Ewha University returned to its old campus in Seoul
and I moved along with it. I remained ill and worsened to the
point where I thought I was to die. During this time I heard a
voice that said, "This is a spiritual crisis".
Mrs Young Oon
Kim
26. 50s: Dr Young Oon Kim
After a few days, a woman came and told me that the Lord of
the Second Advent had appeared in Korea and that I should
study the new truth that he brought. I laughed. This was so
shocking!
But I felt curious and wanted to investigate, knowing that if it
were false I could quickly dismiss it, but that if it were true, it
was a matter of life and death! Soon I became terribly ill, and
Dr. Helen Kim sent for an ambulance, which took me to the
University hospital.
27. After returning home I visited the house where Reverend Moon
was teaching and heard lectures on Divine Principle.
On the third day
I was completely healed of my lingering illness.
The night before my healing, the inner voice of God had spoken
again: ’It was I who led you to Jesus., it was I who led you to
Swedenborg; it was I who led you here’.”
28. 50s: Dr Young Oon Kim
from Blessing Quarterly Winter 1987, page 27
"During the 4 years that I lived in Seoul church, under the
same roof as Sun Myung Moon. At one point I went back to
clean my own home for a week.
One day when I brushing the entrance, he revealed himself,
he suddenly came in spirit form, Full-size in front of my door.
I had never seen such a vibrant spirit earlier. He told me that he
woke up every morning and looked over the Han river, and
longed for me to return. He missed me and wanted me back to
life in the church, even though I only been gone a week."
29. From New Age Frontiers 13 Dec 1960
Miss Young Oon Kim addressed qualifications
necessary for the Lord of Second Advent.
1. First of all, to be the Lord of Second Advent, one must
completely subjugate Satan.
2. One must fullfill the words of both the Old and New Testament.
3. He must complete not only Christianity but other major
religions.
4. Upon achieving the first three conditions, God must declare him
Lord of the Second Advent.
30. 5. His birth cannot be casual or accidental.
He must come from a family where there have been at least
seven righteous generations.
The nation in which he is born must have been prepared for
centuries for the last dispensation.
6. He must have a complete schedule for the restoration and the
establishment of the Kingdom of God.
7. God, Jesus Christ and the entire spiritual world are responsible
to witness and cooperate with his work.
Therefore regardless of his race, nationality, education or
background everyone has to follow him.
31. 8. Jesus born of the Holy Spirit and a virgin could not fullfill his
mission. The accomplishment of the mission is more important
than being chosen to be the Messiah.
9. After the Lord of Second Advent accomplishes his mission, all
mankind is indebted to him.
10. In the Old Testament Age, God worked through his servants.
In the New Testament Age, He sent His son Jesus. In the
Completed Testament Age the Lord the Second Advent will
restore the position of Adam, and thus be the True Father of
mankind as it is...he returns in the glory of the father.
32. 11. One can choose his mate, but cannot choose his parents.
Therefore the Lord of the Second Advent who comes in the
glory of the Father is neither self-proclaimed nor elected by
masses. But he must be chosen by God alone. In choosing
him God must consider the accomplishment of his mission.
This mission must be accomplished by his sacrifice of blood,
sweat and tears.
12. We shall know him by his words,
his works, and also by the
testimony of the spiritual world.
33. Miss Kim also explained the three judgments
which we will all face.
1. The judgment by the Word
The Divine Principles are the tool of this judgment.
They must be mastered.
34. 2. The judgment of Personality.
We must obtain heavenly personality to be the children of God
the Father.
To obtain the heavenly personality, our will, plan and desires
must be identical with His.
This personality must be manifested in everyday life and work.
35. 3. The judgment of the Heart.
To pass this judgment, our hearts must be one with God's heart.
We must experience Gods broken heart of being rejected,
rebelled against and betrayed by mankind through the ages.
We must even minutely experience Gods broken heart.
Therefore we shall experience being rejected by family, ohurch,
society, nation and the whole World.
We must overcome all these hardships and be grateful for
sharing part of Gods sorrow. Then we will be worthy to be
called His sons and daughters.
36. The age of individual salvation has passed.
Accordingly, our prayer and faith must be changed from an
individual level to universal level.
Since this is the time of the universal restoration, everyones
work is judged by the contribution towards whole development
rather than individual achievement.
Your own work is now related with your nations mission and
not with your own individual salvation.
37.
38. Rev. Paul Werner 1963
“I began to pray without ceasing and to study.
At that time I created an outline of the Principle book,
to make easier to study.
I fasted and especially prayed. Boy, I really prayed.
Right from the beginning my spiritual eyes opened up, and I
began to see things spiritually, that I had never seen before. I
designated one room in my house as a prayer room. Whenever I sat
down to pray, the room was filled with people, spirits. I could see
them, and the room was filled with light. I was drawn magnetically
into that room at all hours. Many times I saw beautiful colors in there:
pink, white, royal blue, much gold and a beautiful light green. It was
such a wonderful feeling, just sitting in that room with so many spirit
people, praying and talking to God. My prayers lasted for hours.
Many times I even prayed through the nights. I never wanted to
stop…
Paul Werner
39. …
I found out, what baptism with fire is all about, because that is
exactly what I experienced while praying, studying or fasting. All this
was so wonderful that I didn't want to stop being in this spiritual
realm.
Soon I also found out that I had healing power, and many spiritual
phenomena occurred to me.
I myself and others around me regarded me as a man, down to
earth. Therefore I tested all those experiences many times. Other
things happened to me, such as smelling and hearing spiritually.

”In 1968 at the time of the Blessing of the 430 Couples, I was
sitting in my car, thinking about Father and what he may be doing. I
was unaware that on that particular day the Blessing would take
place. Suddenly I saw little pink hearts appear in the car all around
me! It was an amusing vision and a very wanning experience. I was
surprised and wondered what it could mean. The next day,
Dr. Martin Porter
41. Italian beginning
…
I took one of the members home from the center and her parents
invited me
in. They happened to be watching the news on television and
suddenly I saw the Blessing of the 430 couples being televised from
Korea! That was an extraordinary experience. I had just been talking
to her about the marriages in our church, and there it was on
television! Incidents like this made us feelthe spirit of God so close.
Since we had no television in the center, God must have been
working so hard to have us at the right place and time to witness
this!”
Dr. Martin Porter
42. Italian beginning

” In the early days in Rome, we had many deep spiritual
experiences. Doris,
our leader, had many herself which may have been the basis for our
having so many experiences too. Every Sunday morning in the
summer, we prayed out-doors from midnight to 7 a. m. at a place
called Monte Porzio.
One particular experience happened at 3 in the morning:
a small sign of Omega appear over the city of Rome, and as it came
toward us it grew bigger and bigger until it covered about two-thirds
of the night sky. This incredible vision lasted three or four minutes,
and all of us praying on the mountainside witnessed it.
Dr. Martin Porter
43. Italian beginning

Another night at the same place we saw a bright burst of light in the
sky – a tiny dot at first, which quickly grew to the size of the moon.
Very soon after, another burst of light appeared and another and
another, forming the base of four positions in the sky.
The last burst of light turned pink, while the others turned gold and
green-it was so beautiful!
Again, we all saw this vision; there was no mistake.
We had so many experiences on that hillside outside of Rome.”
Dr. Martin Porter
44. Italian beginning

”One witnessing experience in particular stands out in my mind.
My ltalian was not sufficient to explain our message, so I took
pamphlets with me and tried to encourage contacts to come back to
the center. This method didn't meet with much success, and after
several weeks of not bringing anyone home, I began to fast and
determined to memorize the explanation on the pamphlet in the hope
that whoever I spoke to would not have any questions, but would just
obediently follow me back to the center…
Mrs Porter
45. Italian beginning
…
I settled on the bank of the Tiber and began to draw, with my
pamphlets spread out informally beside me. Soon a curious passer -
by came to watch and I immediately gave him a pamphlet while
reciting the first line. He listened pensively and then seemed to want
to read for himself. Meanwhile, I prayed desperately that God would
somehow allow me to answer, should he ask a question. He did! I
stumbled into the first chapter as I'd heard it so many times now
ltalian.
Soon a flood of words came into my mind, as if I were repeating the
lecture word for word. This continued through the principle of polarity,
give and take, the purpose of creation, the three blessings. ..I could
hardly believe my own ears!
Mrs Porter
46. Italian beginning
…
The man was keenly interested and we went back to the center
where. I introduced him to our teacher, Martin Porter.
No one believed me when I said that the guest had already heard the
first part of Chapter One, but after a short conversation with my
guest, it became apparent that he had clearly been informed! I call
this my "speaking in tongues" experience, which sadly was not
repeated again.”
Mrs Porter
47. Extracted from the book
II Vero Amore (True Love)
December 21, 1979 Rome.
Daniela: We want to ask you how the Movement
[the Unification Church] will develop.
Horward (in spirit world): The truth is the truth.
The Principle shall continue. I already told you that
It will develop even more after the year 2000.
It is not important whether the person who revealed it will
still be alive at that time. (SMM passed over 2012)
I tell you, he shall work more freely and will accomplish
more when he is in the spirit world than while he
is on earth. (= Prophecy 1979)
48. Words from St Augustine 2001
“People of faith!
The Messiah who is to come
is none other than Rev. Moon,
the True Parents of heaven and earth.
Please pray to discover who that
person is. Here in the spiritual world, I
have seen him clearly, working in the
human form while surrounded by
brilliant light.
49. Words from St Augustine 2001
“In the Blessing ceremony, people on
earth will be able to see only the people
on earth, but the Blessing candidates in
heaven can see both the couples on
earth and those in heaven.
The scene of the Blessing ceremony
is truly beautiful and enchanting.”
50. Words from St Augustine 2001
“During the ceremony, the officiator,
Rev. Moon, suddenly changed into
the shape in which God had
appeared in the Garden of Eden
before the human fall;
God's rays spun in splendid and
enrapturing colors and circled
around Rev. Moon, whereupon he
assumed God's body.
51. Words from St Augustine 2001
Then, the whole scene of the
Blessing ceremony was showered
with brilliant light, as if floodlights of
thousands of volts had been turned
on in a dark room.
In this ceremony, God's light touched
each and every couple.”

66. The returning Messiah
represents the position of
Abel at the levels of
individual, family, tribe,
people, nation and world.
He fulfills the responsibilities Christianity and America
left undone. He also brings down communism and
establishes an environment conducive to the unity of
the world.
On the foundation of fulfilling these conditions,
the returning Lord sends forth tribal messiahs.
67. Therefore, just as Heaven sent the returning Messiah,
True Parents on behalf of God are sending you
as tribal messiahs.
They bequeath to you the foundation of the realm of
mainstream religion that was prepared to receive
the Messiah, which began with Israel four thousand
years ago.
68. Three spiritual children
Fallen Adam and Eve are restored through Abel.
Blessed parents become perfect through their children,
which is similar to fallen parents being restored through
Abel.
In this way, restoration takes place through indemnity.
Therefore, if you do not have spiritual children, you should
not conceive and give birth to children.
69. You can give them birth, but you cannot truly love them.
This is the implication of the Principle.
The Fall transpired by people going in a direction opposite
that of the Principle.
Thus, restoration transpires through blocking, adjusting and
correcting that opposite direction in a way that is airtight.
Thus, you absolutely need spiritual children.
70. The importance of angels
Who originally was supposed to guide Adam and Eve?
It was the archangel. It was not God but the angels who
were meant to protect and nurture Adam and Eve until they
reached maturity.
Likewise it is spiritual children who are meant to support the
spiritual parent’s path to heaven. When, with the support of
your spiritual children, you receive the Blessing of heaven,
they will follow you into heaven on the merit of their support
for you as their spiritual parent.
71. This is how the three angels in the angelic world are
restored, how the three children of Adam are restored and
how the three sons of Noah are restored.
This is how the condition of having gone through three
stages as Heaven’s representative is achieved. What does
becoming totally one mean?
It means the oneness the three angels in the garden of Eden
should have had, focusing on unfallen Adam.
72. When the three angels become one, they are elevated into
the realm of God’s Blessing.
Before the Fall, the three archangels looked forward to the
day Adam and Eve would marry after receiving their
complete support.
Likewise, your spiritual children will yearn ardently to see
you receive the blessing. The mistake
of one archangel affected the others. Hence, when your
spiritual children support you substantially, they are setting
indemnity conditions required by heaven and earth.
73. For that reason, spiritual parents need to maintain
a standard of heart toward their spiritual children that is
higher than that of parents in the fallen world. You
cannot stand on Heaven’s side or ascend to the realm to
receive Heaven’s blessing if your standard of parental heart
is lower than that of the fallen world.
When you reach that level, you can receive the blessing,
give birth to children and love them completely. Then Satan’s
world will not be able to accuse you or require you
to pay indemnity.
