Re: Commencement of Ahn Shi Il and the Declaration of Ssang Hab Shib Seung Il

May the great love and blessings of the Cosmic Parent and the Parents of Heaven and Earth be upon all mission nations and blessed families worldwide as we usher in God`s Fatherland and the era of the Peace Kingdom.

On the occasion of the 44th anniversary of True Parents` Day, True Parents declared Ahn Shi Il. After returning to Korea on April 20, True Parents spent the next ten days setting conditions in preparation for the 50th Anniversary of the Founding of HSA- UWC/FFWPU. From May 3, True Parents presided over the World Peace King Cup Fishing Tournament in Yeosu and held the first official Ahn Shi Il ceremony on May 5. True Parents made the declaration of Ssang Hab Shib Seung Il on this day of Ahn Shi Il.

The following are the instructions and summary of content from Father's speech regarding this declaration. All leaders of each nation, please convey these instructions to the members.

Ssang Hab Shib Seung Il

1) Date of Declaration: May 5, Fourth Year of Cheon Il Guk (2004), 5:00 am

2) Location: Blue Sea Garden residence, Yeosu Jeolla South Province, Korea 3) Explanation of Declaration

Ssang Hab Shib Seung Il is the day when heaven and earth interchange, when top-bottom, front-back, and left-right interchange, when good restores this world which began from evil, and when this era of the evil satanic kingdom is cleansed and the era of the kingdom centering on true love is restored.

When we look at the four seasons up until now, heavenly spring, summer, autumn and winter have never existed. Due to the fall, the development of civilization did not begin from spring but began from the subtropical or tropical zones, going on to the autumn season and passing the winter season. Half of this went toward the left. Thus the history of strife and discrimination which began centering on the northern regions centering on Satan has gone by and finally God has prevailed over all things of the era before heaven [seon cheon shidae] which began from the fall. As a result, centering on the God of goodness as the owner, we have entered the four seasons of love from the standard of the blessing of Adam and Eve prior to the fall, and can now begin as the people of God`s nation in the era after the coming of heave [hoo cheon shidae].

Ssang Hab Shib Seung Il is the day when the era before heaven and the era after the coming of heaven combined. It is the day of victory centering on the number ten, on the fifth day of the month of May [the 5th month]. On this day of May 5, the era changes from the era before heaven to the era after the coming of heaven, and with the commencement of the first Ahn Shi Il, heaven and earth become one, and the era after the coming of heaven, in which God's love, kingdom and fatherland can be proclaimed, can now begin.

Now we are in the era where we are directly connected to God`s throne. With the Parent of Heaven, Earth and Humankind as the Cosmic Parent, Parent of Heaven and Earth, and the Parent of Heaven, Earth and Humankind, the incorporeal and substantial God can now form His family ideal centering on love that can position itself as the representative of the God of personality and for the first time He can rest on this day. Thus we have entered the age of attending God not on the Sabbath day but on this day of Ahn Shi Il.

Ahn Shi Il

True Parents proclaimed the day of Ahn Shi Il on April 19, and held the first Ahn Shi Il service on May 5th. Ahn Shi Il will be observed every eight days, beginning from May 5. In May, Ahn Shi Il will thus fall on the 13th, the 21st, and the 29th.

Father has stated that the pledge services we observed every week on Sunday must be held on Ahn Shi Il from now on.

Leaders of each nation should cease holding pledge service on Sunday and instead hold pledge service at 5 am on the mornings of Ahn Shi Il and convey these instructions to the members. Headquarters will distribute calendars marking the Ahn Shi Il days to each mission nation as soon as they are ready.
