I would like to pray for the happiness of Young Jin Nim in his eternal life in the Spirit World.

Young Jin Nim was born in the United States on June 30, 1978. He was deep-hearted. He was the smartest boy among the True Children.

Young Jin Nim drove through the night of October 26th from Los Angeles, California, to Reno, Nevada. He was planning to review opportunities in Reno, Nevada, to study hotel management on this trip. He died at 9:30 pm, October 27, 1999. After 9:30 pm, the television was still on in his room. His lunch and dinner were still in his room. It was determined that there had been no influence of drugs, alcohol or violence in his sudden death. He died from a fall from the balcony of his room on the 17th floor. His body was not damaged. He looked peaceful.

After Dr. Sang Hun Lee [who wrote Unification Thought] entered Spirit World, he communicated with us that at his death, he saw an angel and tried to follow the angel and fell out of a window and died. What we understand is that Dr. Lee was called to the Spirit World in order to help members learn the reality of the Spirit World.

I think that Young Jin Nim was called to Spirit World in a similar manner as was Dr. Lee and that his body was carried by angels to the ground and thus, there was no damage to his body.

Seven days after Young Jin Nim’s passing into the Spirit World, True Parents made an official statement that Young Jin Nim’s passing was a sacrifice, similar to Abraham’s sacrifice of Isaac. He was sacrificed for the following reasons.

1) Young Jin Nim was sacrificed to restore the past 6,000 years.

On September 9, 1999 (9/9/99) True Father declared the liberation of the number 9, Satan’s number [From True Father’s prayer that day: "Therefore, I now proclaim in the name of the True Parents that we have entered the age of liberation, the age of heavenly fortune, the age of the ideal Kingdom of God in heaven where only good remains and only good can move, through the world of evil and the world of goodness and God and the True Parents having become one."]

During this same time period, there was the 40-day period of leadership transfer between Japanese and American leaders from August 31 - October 9, 1999, which was successful in bringing restoration.

On October 20, True Father returned to the United States.

On October 23, Father held a ceremony declaring Heaven and Earth Substantial Liberation.

On October 24, True Father held a ceremony declaring Total Universal Liberation at which he announced that the Realm of the Fourth Adam has begun.

The first Adam was Adam.

The second Adam was Jesus.

The third Adam brought us to the top of the growth stage.

The victory of the Realm of the Fourth Adam is that we can move beyond the top of the growth stage and into the Divine Principle realm of the Direct Dominion of God. Since the declaration of this day, blessed couples should pray in our own names. Also, blessed parents can bless their own children in marriage.

Millions of couples have now been blessed. Blessed spirit persons have been given permission to do the 3-Day Ceremony.

I heard True Father say that he was willing to sacrifice his entire family in order to accomplish God’s will.

Young Jin Nim represents the Cain world, the 6,000 [Biblical] years of history [from Adam to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; from Jacob to Jesus; and from Jesus to the Lord of the Second Advent, which concludes on December 31, 1999.] There were 66 days remaining in this 6,000 year period on the day of Young Jin Nim’s passing.

2) Young Jin Nim sacrificed himself representing all the Blessed Families.

How have we and the Second Generation been doing? October is the month of the 777 Couples Blessing. At 21 years old, Young Jin Nim fulfilled the 3 x 7 number of 21 and went to the Spirit World.

3) Young Jin Nim was sacrificed for the sake of America, in order for America to fulfill the elder son position.

Recently True Father declared that Korea, Japan and the United States are one nation. Young Jin Nim was the Second Son of the True Parents’ family to be born in the United States. As such, he was the Abel of Abels.

4) He was sacrificed for the victory of the Four Hundred Million Couples Blessing.

The four children of True Father and True Parents who died in their youth represent the Four Hundred Million Couples:

Hye Jin Nim died as an infant.
Hee Jin Nim died as a middle school student at the time of an all-out witnessing campaign.
Heung Jin Nim died as a high school age student [at the age of 18 (19 by the Korean way of counting) as a single young man].
Young Jin Nim died as a university student [and was married].

[Young Jin Nim’s body was buried at Sierra Memorial Gardens in Reno, Nevada. His Seung Hwa was held October 30, 1999.] True Father, at Young Jin Nim’s Seung Hwa, prayed about the sacrifice of their four children - about how their sacrifice represented the Four Hundred Million Couples. True Father’s prayer was stronger than Father’s usual prayers. True Mother’s eyes were swollen. True Parents looked tired.

Since the time of the 36 Million Couples Blessing, we have been in the age or time period when True Parents no longer had to sacrifice. Yet due to our unfulfilled conditions, True Parents had to sacrifice. How can we understand the heart of True Parents! For Father, it is more difficult to sacrifice four children than anything. For True Parents, it is more difficult to sacrifice their four children than it was for Heavenly Father to sacrifice Jesus. We need to comfort the True Parents.

The key point of our prayer is to pray for the victory and settlement [of Young Jin Nim] in the Spirit World. There is a worldwide condition of 10 pm - 2 am prayer and breakfast fasting.

[At this point Rev. Man Ho Kim presented the holy candle for witnessing from Dae Mo Nim and some stones from a newly created Holy Ground, understood to be in Atlanta, Georgia.] The holy candle has been given to us from East Garden. These stones are from a newly created Holy Ground. Please receive them wholeheartedly. Put your name and the names of your twelve Blessing candidates on the candle.

During your prayer, pray for True Family centered on Hyo Jin Nim. Satan is making a last minute effort to kill all of True Family. This is the culmination of the 6000 Years of Providential History. Satan may attack through the media.

Don’t take Young Jin Nim’s Seung Hwa as a sad thing. He went to the Spirit World on behalf of the Four Hundred Million Couples Blessing victory. What do you think Young Jin Nim would want to see? He would like to see the blessed couples busy. What are we going to sacrifice? We have wasted a lot of time. Please don’t relax from second to second. Motivate yourself - with your whole heart motivate yourself. American members, help and support the Japanese sisters. Let’s bring a victorious result and work hard together.
