- The document discusses the history and significance of the Blessing ceremony within the Unification Church, which removes original sin and allows people to enter the realm of the "third Israel". - It describes how True Parents have worked to establish God's ideal by holding Blessing ceremonies starting in 1960, with the goal of creating ideal families, tribes and ultimately a world centered on God. - The Blessing ceremonies unite people with True Parents and allow them to establish a new lineage and race apart from their ancestors, qualifying them to create Cheon Il Guk, the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth.

3. In 1952 (1946-52), we lost the original worldwide Blessing
era, in which we would have been able to hold the Blessing
on a worldwide scale centering on True Parents.
Forty years later (= Indemnity paid), in 1992,
we were finally able to enter the world­
wide Blessing era,
and so the 30,000 Couples Blessing was held.
This is the formation stage of the worldwide era.
/SMM 1996.1.1

5. The year 1960 was a very dangerous period,
just as dangerous as at the time of Jesus,
when the Jews, the nation of Israel, and Rome
united in opposing him, and he was finally crucified.
Nonetheless, I performed the Blessing Ceremony
under such circumstances.
That is how I pulled the 36 Couples away from the
clutches of Satan.
/SMM 1987

6. The Blessed Families that are united with my family
make up a new tribe.
As time progresses, they will grow in number
and form a new race.

7. Further expansion will bring forth a new nation,
and finally a new world. /SMM 1969
The Blessed Families must eliminate everything that is
in conflict with heaven, and which has been inherited
from the numerous ancestors, races and nations of
past history. /SMM 1978

8. In other words, a new race,
the people of the third Israel, will be formed.
It is the Unification Church that also has enabled the
Japanese people, to become those who will inherit the
new realm of the lineage of God, instead of merely
remaining as those who inherit the lineage of their
Japanese ancestors who lived in the past.
/ SMM1969.2.2

9. And God blessed them, and God said unto them,
Be fruitful, perfect human in Love
Be ye perfect as Your Father in Heaven /Jesus
and
multiply, Loving family
and have dominion … Families in perfect Love
over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
/Gen. 1:28

11. Comment:
The 3 Blessings are unconsciously twisted in our society;
The 3rd Blessing to create an ideal environment;
ex. Green movement, communist system - workers paradise,
other –isms…
are trying to take a short cut directly to the 3rd Blessing.

12. Comment:
Its like building a house starting with the roof! ;-)
Instead the original ideal is to first revolutionize Mans
inner moral status;
forgiveness of original sin
=> growing to perfection – 1st Blessing
=> perfecting marriage – 2nd Blessing
=> then creating an ideal society – 3rd Blessing

13. The Fallen World – Based on gratifying the Self
You must start with the Individuals perfection – forgiveness of Sin
thats why all previous –isms failed – Communism/Nazism…
Liberalism
Wrong Selfish order
3rd Blessing
2nd Blessing
1st Blessing

14. The victory of the Allied Powers in the First World War
fulfilled the formation-stage indemnity condition to restore
God's three great blessings worldwide.
By overcoming Jesus' first temptation on the worldwide
level, they fulfilled the indemnity condition to
restore God's first blessing worldwide.

15. The victory of God's side in the Second World War fulfilled
the growth-stage indemnity condition to
restore God's three great blessings worldwide.
Having the significance of overcoming Jesus' second
temptation on the world level, the victory fulfilled the
indemnity condition to restore God's second blessing
worldwide.
Finally, by laying the growth-stage foundation for the
democratic world, it established the growth-stage foundation
to restore God's sovereignty.

16. God began the dispensation of dividing good and evil to
restore the failure in Adam's family on the individual level
and developed it through the levels of
family, clan, society, people and nation.
The time has come when God conducts this dispensation
on the world level.
God intends to restore through indemnity the entire
providence, which was prolonged to the third stage,
by winning victory in the three world wars,
which belong to the final chapter of providential history.

18. Importance of Holy Marriages
If the people of Israel had united with Jesus as the Messiah,
the authority of the elder son could have been restored at
that time. Unity between brothers comes about when they
share the same level, the same value, and the same standard.
Fundamental unity cannot be achieved without the Messiah,
who represents the elder son.
But the people of Israel were unable to become one with the
Messiah.
If they had made unity with Jesus, the Messiah could have
formed a family, and the Blessing could have been given to the
people of Israel as the chosen people.

20. The realm of the third Israel must be established on
earth by connecting the spiritual foundations of
the first (Judaism) and second Israels (Christians).
In order to do so, the returning Lord must find and set
up a family (Adam’s family) that represents the first
Israel, a second family (Noah’s family) that represents
the second Israel, and a third family (Jacob’s family)
that represents the third Israel. (3 Couple Blessing)
Therefore, the 36 Blessed Couples must become the
ancestors of humanity.
/SMM 1968.3.29

21. If you want to become citizens of the third Israel (Korea)
connected to the Unification Church, you must receive the
Blessing.
In the past, at the time of Abraham, one had to be
circumcised
to become a citizen of Israel;
and in the time of Jesus, one had to be baptized.

22. It is the same today.
In the Unification Church, one cannot become a citizen of
the third Israel without receiving the Blessing.
However, in receiving the Blessing one must fulfill certain
conditions that are neither simple nor easy.
I continuously exerted myself and devoted forty years of my
life.
I have spent my life giving the Blessing.
/SMM 1968.1.1

23. Original conditions to qualify to receive the Blessing
(required up until 777 Couples):
• 3 to 4 years of active work in any public ministry
in our movement
• at least three spiritual children
• water fasting for 7 days
• give an offering of money.

24. When we say that the territory of the Blessed Families will be
expanded, it means that the realm of the mainstream God-
centered families will be expanded, thereby forming the tribe
of God.
The fact that families inheriting kinship with True Parents and
inheriting the internal, heavenly heart are emerging and
spreading out horizontally signifies that a God-centered tribe,
people and nation will be created.
Moreover, it will not end there; ultimately, a world centered
on God will be established.
/SMM 1978.10.22

26. SEOUL, South Korea — Thousands of couples from more than 100
countries traveled here to tie the knot Wednesday in what was seen
as the last mass wedding officiated by the Rev. Sun Myung Moon,
the enigmatic founder of the Unification Church.

27. The world has attained its present form through the
motivation of one heart; and history has continued up
until the present day through the investment of the
heart of God and through the flesh and blood of Jesus.
You must know that you are the substantial beings
who, today, can bring all this to fruition.

28. You must understand that you can remain as the third
Israel only when you have become Jesus’ counterparts
who possess the desperate, throbbing heart of Christ.
By having such a heart, Jesus offered himself as a
sacrifice to create the second Israel.

29. Therefore, only when you are prepared to do the same,
can you become the ancestors of the third Israel.
Only then can you become the original children of the
Kingdom of Heaven on earth, the Garden of Eden.
/SMM 1958.1.26

31. The Blessed Families of the Unification Church are not
in the position of the original Israel, waiting and
yearning for the Messiah in the tradition of Judaism.
Instead, they are one step ahead, because they have
already received the Messiah and have formed a new
tribe.
/ SMM 1970.10.30

32. When we consider Korea, we can say that the people
who do not believe in God correspond to the first Israel,
the members of existing churches correspond to the
second Israel, and the Unification Church corresponds
to the third Israel.
That is why Satan is attacking the center of this
providence (=Unification Church).
/ SMM 1968.2.20

34. The Blessing is the key for entering
the Third Israel
Abraham established Israel through the offering of
sacrifices, but the Unification Church is creating Israel
through the Blessing. Therefore, entering the third
Israel is possible only through the Blessing.
/SMM 1967.12.29

35. The Unification Church is setting up the absolute standard
that Adam and Jesus (2nd
Adam) failed to establish due to the
interference of Satan. (creating a True Family)
The Holy Wedding Ceremony was initiated in 1960 with my
family as the center.
Thereafter, we had to form the realm of the tribe, going beyond
the realm of the family.

36. In order to create the realm of the tribe, we should
stand in the position of the apostles who were united
into one with Jesus.
If Jesus had formed a family after he had established a
relationship with his apostles as the subject, then the
apostles would in turn have been able to create
families of their own.
Comment: Following Jesus example.
Instead 2000 year Christianity emphacised
non-marriage as the higher ideal (Jesus pattern)
In this way, a new realm of tribe would have been
formed within Judaism.
/ SMM 1972.5.7

37. If Jesus had performed the holy wedding ceremony, the twelve
apostles would then have had to completely unite with Jesus’
family before they could participate in their own holy wedding
ceremony.
They would have received the Blessing centering on
Jesus’ family, and established the victorious realm that Satan
could not invade either spiritually or physically.

38. Remember St Pauls expressions:
For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth
in pain together until now.
And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the
firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within
ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of
our body.
(Romans 8:18-23)
"Pray unceasingly"

39. Today, the new tribe created through the Blessing is
completely different from the realm of the adopted sons
(christians), who were restored from the fallen state.
This signifies that the tribe that begins from the Son of
God has appeared for the first time.
/SMM 1972.5.7

41. Before everything else, I emphasized the importance of the
restoration of the archangel.
This is achieved through the restoration of three spiritual
sons and daughters.
I placed emphasis on this until the time of the 777 couples.
The 30,000 Couples were blessed on the horizontal level.
