Christmas Message - You wouldn't ask of these, right?

12/23/2021

In a few days it will be Christmas day and many are celebrating all around the world. But, 2,000 years ago the then chosen people were giving (the alive on the earth) Jesus a really hard time. If you were to ask the (church) synagogue leaders then about the man Jesus - what would they be likely to say?
  • He cannot be the Messiah as the prophecy (Malachi 4:5) was not fulfilled. Also John the Baptist denied that he was 'the Elijah'. In addition John the Baptist never actually attended or followed Jesus.
  • Jesus did miracles but it was probably by the power of Beelzebul (Mk 3:22) and, anyway, many of those who were 'cured' by a miracle later became even worse than before! (Matt. 12:43-45)
  • Jesus said, "Believe in Me!" How arrogant is that?
  • Jesus allowed prostitutes to touch him!
  • Jesus was alone with a foreign woman at a well for the better part of a day - even his disciples were shocked.
  • Jesus compared himself with God! And, furthermore, declared that if you've seen him you've seen God!
  • He told his followers that they must eat his flesh and drink his blood otherwise they could not live.
  • After his death his followers held secret meetings in unclean places like the catacombs where they probably did shameful things (otherwise why would they do them in secret)
  • Some of his followers were tax collectors and Jesus said that we should pay taxes.
  • Some of his followers were smelly uncouth fishermen; if Jesus had been followed by a famous personality, like John the Baptist, it would be a different matter.
  • Jesus did not fulfill the prophecy in Daniel 7:13
  • Jesus was afraid of death but he was killed anyway - he saved others but couldn't save himself.
  • He disrespected his mother, contravening one of the 10 Commandments, when he called her 'woman'. (John 2:4)
  • His own family thought that he was crazy and didn't follow him (Mk 3:21)
  • He finally admitted that God had abandoned him - Eloi! Eloi! Lama Sabachthani (Matt. 27:46)

There could be many more points - but you get the idea. The point that I want to make here is that you wouldn't get a very good answer from Christian leaders if the Messiah of the 2nd coming is not in line with their expectation. 

I have already shared evidence that the 2nd coming of the Christ occurred already between/ around 1917 to 1930 (shortly after WW1). Reverend Moon being born in 1920 therefore becomes a good candidate. But, I already know that Rev. Moon does have what we would call in the UK (where I'm from) a bad press.

We should be no strangers to the power of a bad press here in the USA (or anywhere). The Durham report is finally getting to the bottom of the Russia hoax that was begun with zero hard evidence but endured throughout the whole of President Trump's administration. It was given credibility by the fake news media.

If you believe that there is a false ruler (Jn 12:31) and false 'god' (2 Cor 4:4) of this world then it would make sense that media, entertainment (Hollywood), education (at all levels), career politicians, and the like, will all be receiving instructions from the false 'god' to trash the reputation of the Lord of the 2nd Coming. Makes sense, right?
Picture
Reverend Moon made very excellent public talks that gave a new understanding of why Jesus came. It was not to be rejected, ostracized and killed by the then chosen people. Jesus' entire focus was to engender belief in him as the one chosen by God. It is a salient point that Jesus was ultimately killed because the then chosen people regarded Jesus as an imposter. They thought they were removing a charlatan. What would they have done, on the other hand, if they had believed Jesus as Messiah and had actually attended him as such? But, modern day Christians cannot think about that at all. 

Reverend Moon met with the then Soviet Leader Mikhail Gorbachev and, to the shock of those around him, embraced him and advised to take down all the communist statues. We watched a very funny movie, 'Goodbye, Lenin' which was made as a result of him (Mikhail Gorbachev) doing exactly that.

Reverend Moon also took a small party to meet with the then leader of the North Korean regime. Kim Il Sung. They were transported by helicopter and it would have been no problem for Kim Il Sung to wipe out the whole group with an unfortunate helicopter 'accident'. This demonstrates for me the enormous courage and resolve of Rev. Moon. When Rev. Moon forthrightly declared the 'Ju Che' ideology of Kim Il Sung to be wrong those with Rev. Moon turned white- including those of the North Koreans who were charged with looking after Rev. Moon's group. But the meeting turned out very well and the foundation for peace was laid.

Rev. Moon also advocated the 'World Highway' by proposing a bridge/ tunnel at the Bering Straights. This would be awesome and would allow people to drive from Springfield, Missouri to London, England. Even if someone didn't do that they would nevertheless feel that this world is more unified.

For me it is clear that he truly is the Messiah from the teaching contained in the Exposition of the Divine Principle (EotDP). It explains why God ventured to create mankind and why God cannot interfere with the human portion of responsibility. God cannot Love all by Himself.

The 'Fall of Man' is clearly and simply explained and brings to light a lot of answers as to why satan (god) seems to be so powerful even though he is just an angel.

The 'footsteps' of God in restoration history are shown through the alignment of God's (95%) responsibility with man's (5%) responsibility and why the history of restoration from the terrible event of the Fall has taken so long. This should also make clear why restoration cannot be done in the 'blink of an eye' as many modern day Christians suppose. God is not a psychopathic God who unnecessarily makes man suffer for no reason. The 'principles' behind the restoration are immutable and exacting and the 'Introduction to Restoration' that commences Part 2 of the EotDP opens the significance of why the families of Adam, Noah and Abraham are recorded in detail in the Bible.

Time for re-appraisal then. And Merry Christmas to all our readers!      Praise God ! ! !

This is a very thoughtful analysis of the real situation at the time when Jesus was on the earth. It is a far cry from the idealized view of Jesus held by many. Will we be able to recognize Jesus when he returns?. Andrew Derricutt posits that Jesus has returned, and I agree with him. How many of us have been able to recognize the personage of Jesus at his Second Advent, and have taken action, accordingly?

To what extent does God predestine the unfolding of the events in the providence? Although God’s Will to realize the purpose of the providence of restoration is absolute, God predestines the process of its accomplishment conditionally, contingent upon the five percent responsibility of the central figure, which must be completed in addition to the ninety-five percent responsibility of God. The proportion of five percent is used to indicate that the human portion of responsibility is extremely small when compared to God’s portion of responsibility. Yet for human beings, this five percent is equivalent to one hundred percent of our effort.

I feel sorry for Jesus life, when He was alive he didn't have any 1 friend. On the end He was lonely and abandoned even by God.

    I came to Christ through the Lord at His Second Coming. I have been connected with what some would regard as a ‘New Age cult’ for more than 40 years. I want, through this website, to share what I’ve come to understand, and show that it stands up to scrutiny, and criticism.

    Until quite recently I had regarded Christians as the enemy of the Lord of the Second Advent! But then, through Rev. Moon’s successor, Hyung Jin Moon, after his ‘Breaking the Silence’ (2015 January) where he emphasized the Bible (KJV) and spoke almost exclusively of Jesus, grace and faith I decided to connect with a Christian church (Belmont Church in Harrow, London, UK) to find out about these aspects of faith and grace which I had no idea about.

    My strength was the words of truth, as I saw it, that were contained in the ‘Exposition of the Divine Principle’. This is the basic teaching of the Rev. Sun Myung Moon that, for me, made sense of the Bible.

    That Hyung Jin Moon (aka Sean Moon) has since become irrelevant is regrettable but should not become a stumbling block. The 8 Great Sacred Texts (available on the Resources page) constitute the New Age Truth that we need to connect with (from the Lord of the Second Coming) and, I believe, these are absolute.

    So began a journey that opened up the teaching of Rev Moon to an understanding where I came to realize that I am a Christian, Jesus IS the Messiah (as opposed to was the Messiah) and a complete reappraisal of this teaching which is what I want to share through this means.

    OK; there are abridged explanations and sudden conclusions already but I will deal with those if you write to me; let us reason together - and test all things and hold fast to what is good! Also a lot of these can be overcome by reading, "The Exposition of the Divine Principle".

    Thanks for engaging with this and I hope to hear from you so that we can share together as brothers and sisters in Christ and arrive at an understanding of the Gospel of the Kingdom of Heaven that is more to do with 1 Corinthians 3:16 than John 3:16 Thank You for visiting this website.

    Let us reason together . . .
