Report of Mrs. Erikawa, World Itinerant Worker on June 17

245 Japanese missionaries arrived at the New Yorker Hotel, and we had a starting seminar from June 12 to 15. After giving the direction, True Father has looked forward to seeing them and asked many times, "When do the Japanese missionaries come?" At the Hoon Dok Hae from 5:00am on 6/11, True Father said, "Tomorrow, the Japanese missionaries, who have spared no pains to fulfill God's will, will gather at the New Yorker Hotel. Tomorrow's Hoon Dok Hae will be done there, so let's gather there tomorrow. Leaders need to devote more in front of persons of devotion." Then he left East Garden at 4:00am and came to New York City to encourage them. I was both very sorry and thankful for Father's coming to New York City instead of our having to go to East Garden. True Father devoted a lot to gave us true love and words for about 5 hours within about 7 hours he stayed with us for.

True Father went fishing from morning to evening on 6/11 to catch fish for the Japanese missionaries, saying, "I want to have them eat." We ate the sashimi of fish Father caught the day before. On 6/13, Father went out fishing in the cold rain again, and the people of Ocean Church and the Japanese restaurant Tenkai made sashimi of the fish Father caught. Father sent this sashimi to the 245 Japanese missionaries.

At Hoon Dok Hae after the True Day of All Things centering on True Parents, we read True Father's words on 5/2, 4, 10, 17, 20, 22. Father said," Learn them until you have memorized. You have to know a new age has dawned. You have to stand correctly, do correctly, and draw a correct conclusion."

Moreover, we read True Father's words in the beginning in 1950s, 60s and 70s, understanding their providential meaning. Father said, "These words in the beginning are necessary now." In particular, when we read the words related to the Day of Victory over Resentment on May 1, 1974, the 20th anniversary of the foundation of HSA-UWC, True Father said, "There are calligraphies of 'Attainment of the Victory over Resentment ' in the entrance of East Garden and 'Settlement with One Heart ' in the dining room.

They are the standard of the Completed Testament. Now is the time of Settlement with One Heart. We have to repent to show these calligraphies without having fulfilled them, and we must start anew." Then, True Father made us say again and again, "Attainment of the Victory over Resentment" and "Settlement with One Heart."


True Father's Words on 6/16 before his leaving for Kodiak via Montana

(True Father gave a direction to read True Father's words from 5/2 to 22, and on the Day of All Things in 1963)

You have to understand my history. Do you know the meaning of "Attainment of the Victory over Resentment "? It means that you should win a victory over the resentment of Jesus, the Lord of the Second Advent and True Parents; thus, you have to go to the Settlement of One Heart with a true mind. You have to know all of my history. All my words have one purpose. I have prepared everything for God's Kingdom. How much have I suffered since I was 16 years old! It has been my life to go to God's Kingdom with true love. "Attainment of the Victory over Resentment " and "Settlement with One Heart " has been God's heart. If you settle with one heart, you can sit down in the heavenly kingdom.

In the 4 months of April, May, June, and July, we have to harvest all the providence we have done until now as the Unification Church for 40 years. The most important core of value is true love whatever you do.

It is absolute, unique, unchanging, and eternal love. Be convinced of God's love. God's love is the core, center, and bone of everything. Ifyou have absolute faith, absolute love, and absolute obedience with the conviction of these 4 loves which are the main attributes of God's love, you can fulfill absolute unity. You have to live for the sake of others with the consciousness of a owner of Cheon Il Guk. When you attain One Heart, One Body and One Mindset, then consequently the world of One Harmony will emerge internally, and externally the world of unity will emerge. We can create the absolute world of unity through this process. The slogan is "The movement to connect the realm of 1st Israel into peace and unity is the idea of creation of God's homeland." The connecting movement means the movement to restore Adam and Eve completely to the situation before the fall, and to start the new creation. Heaven sent True Parents on earth, and has tried to complete God's providence for 40 years. We have to attain this in 4 months, and this final ideal of settlement is "The movement to connect the realm of 1st Israel into peace and unity is the idea of creation of God's homeland." We should bring this victory in America, which includes Judaism, the 1st Israel and Christianity, the 2nd Israel and everything. Then we will go to Korea with this victory, liberate the 3rd Israel, and create God's homeland. This is our final mission. July is the month of liberation. You have to do your best. You have to change your habits until now. Do 3 times and 7 times more than ever. It is not sure when True Father will come back here.
