True Father's Prayer

Cheon Hwa Gung Special Declaration
Ceremony, at Cheon Hwa Gung in Las Vegas
on April 14, 2012

At the point where the evidently divided internal God and external God are perfectly reunited, Sun Myung Moon and Hak Ja Moon, who were able to become True Parents in the Garden of Eden with no shadow of the Fall, return to the position at which God said, If you eat the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, you will die.

True Parents teach about purity to not one but tens of thousands of couples, sons and daughters who had been enemies, making them one and then establishing the realm of oneness based on unified families. Welcoming with pleasure heaven's victorious sovereignty and the kingdom of Heaven, all these things that are completed, with Mother as the starting point, centering on True Parents, all descendants of two Adam's families are united. I thank Heavenly Father for all his achievements, for the history of Korean tradition, found in Shim Cheong, Chun Hyang, and Admiral Soon- shin Lee, which is able to serve the Original Creator who is divided into the God of Night and the God of Day, and that we can remember and celebrate that such fidelity, loyalty and leadership has been fulfilled, perfected and victorious.

I am also grateful for what Mother and Father have done in following God's will. Please accept this moment when all the processes have been clearly set in order in front of Heaven. Please receive this moment, when we can offer a bow to Heaven, with pleasure.

Mother, thank you for your hard work! Please offer a greeting to Father. [Mother bows from the waist to Father.]

I have received a bow by which Mother pledges to fulfill the time-honored principles of True Parents' traditions, which are absolute faith, absolute love and absolute obedience. From now on we two, as one being, the mother body of the one blood lineage, become the base that can establish the upper and lower, front and back, left and right heavenly pillars. In light of this, please accept, at the heavenly throne, our bow by the two of us who, with our hearts hand in hand, pledge to attend the Absolute Parent, the Original Creator, with gratitude for His grace for the God of Night and the God of Day raising her to the position of perfection, which is the blessing of the perfection of the Parents of Heaven and Earth, the ideal envisaged at the time of the Creation. [True Parents bow from the waist to God.]

Centering on the standard of absolute faith, absolute love and absolute obedience that stems from our God, who restored the authority of the Creator, I offer in front of You, Heavenly Father, my finally having perfected and concluded the Cosmic Assembly for the Settlement of the True Parents of Heaven, Earth, and Humankind and the Proclamation of the Word by God's Substantial Self. Please receive this! Now True Parents pledge and declare that the blessing of God as the Absolute Lord can be always with us. It can eternally and safely lead the owners of the ideal of the eternally unchanging family that upholds one tradition, one lineage and one resemblance [of God] centering on the original homeland and going beyond the Garden of Eden. Please go along with us while perfecting the kingdom of heaven, the heavenly ideal of unity and the fulfillment of love, which is the eternal victorious supremacy. Please receive this, Father! Knowing what You have permitted, we will receive that; and I pray we can be with you in the place of vertical "noontime" alignment [that casts no shadow] at the absolute summit. Parents of Heaven and Earth! Mansei for God! Mansei for True Parents! Victorious supremacy will be eternally perfected in Cheon II Guk, the unified world! Aju, Aju, Aju. Thank you. [ All present bow to True Parents. ]
