Anyonghaseyo, dear brothers and sisters!
Here another inspiration, based on the words of True Father and True Mother:
True Father: "The Heavenly Kingdom is the world of the heart." [1]
The Heavenly Kingdom is the world that would have come about if the human fall would not have happened. It is the world of the heart, of true love:
True Father: "In brief, heaven is a world overflowing with God's true love. True love is at its axis. True love is everywhere ... Everyone's life is filled with true love from beginning to end. The people of heaven are born through true love, live in the embrace of true love, and follow the track of true love all the way to the day they pass on into the next world ..." [2]
True love is the axis of God's Kingdom. Evil, conflicts and struggles are unthinkable in that world:
True Father: "Heaven is a natural world where all people live for the sake of one another. Consequently, antagonism and jealousy cannot be found anywhere in that world. It is not a world governed by money, position or power." [2]
It is the world based on true love, where everyone reaches the level of God's love. Everyone human being becomes a person in the full image of God, becomes the substantial God, becomes God in the flesh. All the ugly things in this world cannot be found anywhere in the Kingdom of God:
True Father: "Heaven is a world filled with the air of true love ... Its life throbs with love, everywhere and all the time ... True love, the love that is God's essence, is Heaven's only governing power." [2]
In the fallen world today people try to dominate, control and exploit each other, based on their selfishness. In the ideal world the only domination is the one based on true love. And everyone wants this kind of domination:
True Father: " How do we have dominion over the world? We have dominion by love. In true love a person never minds being controlled by the beloved; he only wants more and more of that sort of domination." [3]
The ideal world is the goal of God's dispensation. How do we establish this ideal world? It cannot be created by God alone, neither by True Parents alone. We all have to create it, by developing the highest quality of love in our life:
True Father: "Heaven is created by those people who love here on earth with unselfishness and an absolute, God-centered love. This is the most basic principle, and all other principles you learn are the expansion of this basic truth." [4]
True Father: "Heaven starts by loving another human being the way God does." [5]
Only love of such quality can create the Kingdom. And we are the ones who need to develop such a love. That is our main mission. Such a love has no concept of struggle, conflict or enemy. Such a love embraces every enemy, without hesitating even for a second. Loving like that, we resemble God:
True Mother: "When you really come to feel God’s heart, how could you possibly seek revenge? When you come to know God’s heart, you want to help your enemy instead. Only then can you focus on love, which is the great road of the law of nature, and can you travel that great road which embraces all as one. Only then will heaven and earth move in unison, and will God shed tears. He will be delighted because you resemble Him." [6]
In the end everyone will resemble God, forever and ever. Then all problems will be solved, and happiness and prosperity will reign everywhere, anytime, for all eternity.
Love from Bruno
