Time of Seismic Change

This is an excerpt from the Divine Principle about another time of seismic change. But this is not the main reason why this foto was chosen. The worldview that we have has been shaped by history and the practical experiences of a lifetime. We do need to radically change our worldview to align with that of heavenly principles from God that we (mankind) have been estranged from since the time of the Fall of Man. The Lord of the Second Coming brings new words of truth as Jesus promised in John 16. (vv 12,13 & 25).

Once we engage with this new word we will get new life and come to resurrect from the dead (Luke 9:60!). Therefore, this new word from the LSA (Lord of the 2nd Advent), is really important, right? You couldn't imagine how anyone would justify changing even a comma from these words. 

The piece in 'red color' in the above picture is missing from the online pdf versions of the Exposition of the Divine Principle currently in cyberspace. If you don't believe that this is part of the new word from the LSA (aka True Parents) then that's OK. But you should, at least, check these words out. (see 'basic points' on the Home page) What have You got to lose, after all, except the precious commodity of time.

However, a lot of people these days are wasting time by 'looking to the sky' for the return of Christ. It's not going to happen that way. Once we come to realize that 'we' are truly children of God, created in His image (Wow!) then we can heartistically realize that a new heaven and a new earth will not magically appear - like I clean out my fish tank for my pet fishes - but will be made by resurrected people who are aligned with the heart, value standard and Will of God through the new truth brought by the LSA.

The view that the time of judgement will come from heaven is also skewed. The judgement will take place on the earth and, at essence, is the fundamental choice that we make: to align with God, or to keep things as they are (John 12:31; 2Cor. 4:4) Career politicians and church (and anything else) people get their livelihood by keeping the status quo. This is why I have given up on regular church oriented Christians who are receiving a salary, as to accept a 'new truth' will put their livelihood at risk. Just like the 1st chosen people who still don't accept Jesus as Messiah, the 2nd 'Israel' (Christianity) are going to be among the very last to connect wth the LSA. I hope that this does not include You! If you can accept St. Paul's advice to 'test all things and hold fast to what is good' then you'll be OK.

The purpose of this website is to showcase accurately and with accessibility the 8 Great Texts that True Father (LSA) recommended we study. That's why when some aspect is missing it's a very big deal. From this I realized that the Exposition of the Divine Principle, on this site, was also missing the 3 charts (diagrams) and these have now, finally, been included. They are at the end of the chapter on Eschatology in part 1, and at the end of chapters 3 and 4 of part 2. Just looking at these charts can help you to quickly catch that God is for real and has been guiding the restoration history in an exacting and thorough way. Reading the chapters that precede these charts will totally consolidate that and give you a firm base to connect with the real, and very relevant, LSA. It is astonishing that the restoration history has been concluded and that, as a direct result, we are in a completely new era. This new era is as radically different from the New Testament Age as the NTA was from the OTA that preceded it. We are now in the Era of 4th Adam when we inherit the victory of the 3rd Adam by coming to embody the concepts contained within the 'new truth'.

As You should know, the 2nd Advent of Christ took place shortly after the end of the First World War.

The yellow colored part is also missing from the on-line versions of the EotDP. In addition, chart 2 was of a significantly lower resolution than the two other charts and this has now been redrawn on this site. I'm hoping that this work can be 'stolen' and multiplied so that everyone can have access to a pdf of the EotDP that aligns with the actual printed version. It would be great too if the book could be put back into print, right?

A friend asked why anyone would put on the internet an incomplete version of the book. I think it is simply because the publications department are getting a salary from working there and they want to encourage You to buy the book. That would be OK if the book were still in print - to expain why it's not is another story . . .. Anyone who gets a salary for doing something is reluctant to give it away for free according to normal human wisdom and reasoning. And that's why we need a seismic change in our thinking. To come to realize, at a fundamental level, that we belong to God as His children.

These are the last days we are living in right now. The 'last days' are only neccessary because Satan stole the entire creation from God when he instigated the treachery of the Fall. Satan's justification for this treason was along the lines of, 'if you were in my situation then You would do as I have done. Yet, Job, in the Bible, was among the first to show the fallacy of that reasoning. Abraham, when he was prepared to sacrifice his only son of blessing, also tangibly proved satan to be wrong. Jesus, who was prepared to do anything to fulfill the Will of God, also proved him wrong. But, sadly, Jesus was not accepted by the then chosen people and could bring only spiritual salvation as his body was fatally assaulted by satan. This is why the history of Christianity has been one of martyrdom and bloodshed. Even Muslims are amazed by this.

As (almost) everybody knows by now, America was stolen in 2020 and the lie was substantialized on January 20th of this year. The contrast between America before January 20th and since then is stark and can be felt and experienced by not just Americans. There are many who are calling for Biden's resignation not realizing that he never was the real president anyway. The ones who shoehorned him and the whole administration in are the ones who are 'pulling the strings'. I feel that American is on the verge of being handed back to 'we the people'. But, if this Christian nation does not conect with the new truth from the Lord of the Second Coming then we will never truly resurrect.

A seismic change in our value standard is needed. We do need to align with the purpose of the original ideal of God. The focus of present day Christians needs to shift from thoughts of rapture and apolcalyptic changes taking place literally to connecting with and engaging with the New Truth of the Second Advent of Christ and coming to embody this truth - in the same way that Jesus was a perfect example of someone who was the embodiment of the Word of God (as per John chapter 1)

We are living in unprecedented times right now. We have a portion of responsibiity (since we're created in the image of God) that even God can not interfere with or intervene in. The sooner we come to connect with that the sooner the apparatus of satan's fake and treasonous administration (John 12:31 and 2 Cor. 4:4) can be exposed, unravelled and dismantled.

Looking forward to God's original ideal becoming manifestly realized as One World Family of Humankind centered on God through True Parents. Praise God ! ! !

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

Addendum: We have a Korean language book that we bought in 1994 and I was able to put these 'missing parts' from the 1996 and 1998 Editions of the EotDP into a translator to verify that they are missing pieces.

Of course, ideally we should be reading from the original Korean language version, BUT, I can at least verify that this is original content that was omitted from the first printings of the English language version. Awesome! Praise God ! ! !

이러한 가운데서 노아가정은 심판 40이로써 '믿음의 기대'를 복귀하기 위한 조건물인 방주(方舟)를 뜻맞게 찾아 세워 그 기대(基臺)를 탕감복귀(蕩減復歸)할 수 있었던 것이다.original first part from the first picture in red color as per blog.

이와 같이, 아담에서 노아에 이르는 1600년간에 10대를 복귀하였던 시대에서 400년간에 10대를 복귀하는 시대로 넘어왔기 때문에 노아 이후 인간의 수명(壽命)은 갑자기 짧아지게 되었다. original text from the second picture in 'yellow' color as per blog.

So, these "extra" pieces that were missing from the first printings of the English language version are totally legitimate.

I have also written to the publishers regarding this and to find out the latest printing.
