Distinguished world leaders. Representatives of the Universal Peace Federation and the Mongolian People’s Federation for World Peace. Ambassadors for Peace.

Thank you for attending this Congratulatory Banquet Program to celebrate “The Universal Peace Federation, the Establishment of the Peace Kingdom, and the Providential Mission of the Mongolian Peoples’ Federation for World Peace.” This is a great moment in history. The guiding hand of the living God is at work in a powerful way, carrying out His divine providence.

We have gathered at the Cheon Jeong Gung Peace Palace. This is a place where heaven and earth come together, and where the King and Queen of Peace reside. It is a place where righteous men and women, from both the physical world and spiritual world, can gather in service to the will of God.

Thus, in addition to those who are physically present here today, there are also countless saints, prophets, religious leaders, emperors, and presidents who have passed on to the spiritual world. They too are with us today; they too want to offer their encouragement and support. Their dream, our dream, and God’s dream are one and the same.

Today we will hear a precious message from True Father. The message He will deliver represents a new revelation from heaven. It is a textbook to guide us in what is most essential in life. This message provides a roadmap to lasting peace. Therefore, please do not look at today’s event externally or superficially. Today we have been given the  opportunity to have a direct encounter with God’s Word, God’s Blessing and God’s Providence of Restoration. Please give your full attention. Your own good ancestors wish nothing less from you.

There is no way to adequately introduce True Father. The significance of his life and the depth of his relationship with God are beyond measure. I have known him for nearly 50 years, and still I am learning each and every day about his value and the importance of his message.. Truly he is the hope of humankind, and through him the ideal Peace Kingdom that God has been seeking since the time of the Creation is being fulfilled..

What is God’s greatest dream and hope? It is to see his original ideal of the True Family of Three Generations securely established, in freedom, peace and unity. True Father’s sacrifice and all the remarkable and miraculous achievements of his life have been carried out for the purpose of laying a foundation, substantially, for the realization of this ideal.
 
Two core principles guide his life: first, live for the sake of others; and, second, overcome barriers that divide people. These principles have been at the heart of his efforts to promote harmony and cooperation among the religions of the world. That is, he calls religions to serve one another, and to overcome the barriers that divide them from one another. The same principles apply in seeking to restore the relationships among nations, races, cultures, and ethnic groups. They apply also to the relationships between men and women, between husbands and wives, between parents and children, and between siblings.

True Father established the Universal Peace Federation as a movement to build an “Abel-UN,” that is, a God-centered UN-type organization guided by the principle of living for the sake of others, and dedicated to building a world of everlasting peace.   The MPFWP is called to be UPF’s partner in this effort to establish God’s ideal Peace Kingdom.

Since 1960, True Father has been leading the inter-cultural exchange marriage Blessing Ceremonies for millions and millions of couples worldwide---including people of every race, religion, nationality, culture and ethnic background---promoting a universal culture of heart among all human beings.

The internal and fundamental prerequisite for the realization of a peaceful, ideal world is the establishment of an ideal family that manifests God’s original and unchanging ideal of true love and true family. This heavenly ideal was to have been established within Adam’s family at the outset of human history. That is, God’s true love, true life and true lineage were to have been securely and perfectly established on earth and horizontally expanded through the three generations of Adam and Eve, their children and grandchildren. Due to the Fall of the first human ancestors, however, God has had to endure tremendous sorrow. God has never been able to embrace His own true grandsons and granddaughters.

Respected members of the Universal Peace Federation and the MPFWP. Ambassadors for Peace.

By your attendance at today’s program, you are able to reap the benefits of God’s providence at this time, receiving so much grace and heavenly fortune. This is possible because we are alive at the same time as the True Parents. This is a time of great hope, for it is a time when the ideals that humanity has longed to realize throughout the course of history are being fulfilled.

Let us become the leading force in realizing a kingdom of cosmic peace. In order to accomplish this goal, we must open our hearts and minds to receive God’s word today, so that it may serve as the essential guidebook for our lives. Let us follow the path of true love that True Parents have opened, and, together, let us build the Peace Kingdom desired by God.

May God’s blessing be with each one of you, your family and your nation. Thank you very much.
