Behind the Victory of February Fourth

Rev. Jenkins (2/8/2004)
Dear Family,
We are deeply grateful that we could pass through a very serious and dangerous moment in history. Father guided us in Korea that if we didn't fulfill the Coronation of Jesus in Jerusalem and expand it to America there would be a repeat of the history of 2000 years ago. Divisions and great indemnity would be required. Also, the key condition was that True Parents had to be recognized and proclaimed with the support and acceptance of the religious and political leaders from both the Holy Land and in America. This is the providence of history. This providence was fulfilled. Though our offering was humble Rev. Kwak and Dr. Yang received confirmation from Father that God accepted this offering. The main reason was the unity of our leadership internally and the unity with the religious and political representatives in heart with the providence. The Jewish, Muslim and Christian leaders knew the meaning behind their roles in the Coronation ceremonies. They did it with their hearts and supported God's providence.
Another key element of this process came about based on the leadership of Dr. Thomas Walsh in convening a series of meetings in America in which representatives of the organizations responsible for the February 4th providence could bind together in heart centering on Rev. Kwak, Dr. Yang and Mr. Joo. This was most significant.
Mr. Jim Flynn the AFC President, who under all circumstances kept the heart of unity and providence played a very central role. He practically guided our AFC leaders, VRD's, committees and families to unite with the True Parent's direction both in prayer and action. Rev. Kwak said, "America needs more Jim Flynn's !!" Also the work of Dr. Kaufman as with Jerusalem on December 22nd was crucial to the unity of the religious leaders in the Coronation process. Another key to this process was Bishop Kim and Rev. Bruce Sutchar and their friendship with Congressman Davis. This was crucial in the final moment.
Behind this providence was the internal condition that Father set through the sacrifice of all of our FFWPU and CARP leaders from Korea, Japan, America and the 7 enemy nations as well as many nations of the world. They did this through the process of prayer and purification for the February 4th providence with Heung Jin Nim and Dae Mo Nim in Cheong Pyoeng. THANK YOU TO OUR REGIONAL DIRECTORS, VICE REGIONAL DIRECTORS AND REV. COTTER AND OUR CARP LEADERS. Without your sacrifice, Heung Jin Nim, who was assigned by True Parents to guide this providence, would not have had the condition to bring the light of the coronation to the world. The foundation of unity in Israel with our key Ambassadors for Peace with Dr. Abe and Mr. Hod Ben Zwi and the work our whole movement did in December in Israel all dovetailed together for the February 4th event.
Rev. Kwak, Dr. Yang and Mr. Joo also paid immense indemnity - this is a fact. Behind it all is the unspeakable course of tears and suffering of True Parents, Hyun Jin Nim and our True Family. We don't even know that price that was required. But behind every victory there is a record of tears and suffering for the sake of humanity.
We are grateful to all for this step in history. Now we must walk forward to the next level in the providence and through the Interreligious and International Peace Council (IIPC) (the Peace United Nations) we must sacrifice everything to substantially realize the Peace Kingdom in which the dream of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. will be a living reality in every family, community and nation on earth.
Glory to God on High. Glory to True Parents. Glory to Jesus, Muhammad and the founders and saints. Glory to Heaven and Earth.
Thanks America and the World.

American Providence

Rev. Jenkins (1/30/2004)
Dear Family,
The expansion of the victory of December 22nd is now occuring in America. Through the Middle East Peace Initiative programs all the leaders of all 50 states are being linked to victory and will bring that spirit Through America this victory will then be connected to all the nations of the world. The ceremony in Jerusalem last month in which Jewish leaders with the support of Christians and Muslims in Jerusalem embraced and welcomed Jesus giving him a crown as the King of Peace. This reconciled Jesus family and set the condition to end the strife between Ishmael and Isaac (Muslims, Christians and Jews). This reconciled the family of Jesus.
In His address entitled The Messiah and True Parents at the World Summit on Leadership and Governance Congratulatory Banquet on January 27th Father gave these words concerning December 22nd and the proclamation of True Parents throughout the world.
" A movement to remove crosses from church buildings in accordance with my declaration is spreading like wildfire in many areas of the world. Thousands of clergy have journeyed to Jerusalem, the epicenter of the strife in the Middle East, to participate in interreligious and international peace rallies. On December 22, 2003, many Jewish, Christian, and Muslim clergy took each other by the hand, sang the praises of peace, and performed a ceremony to crown Jesus as the King of Kings. It was a miracle performed in Jerusalem's Independence Park before a crowd of some 20,000 people. This was a day when Jesus' grief was resolved and the victory of True Parents could be declared to all of heaven and earth. "
Now, due to the conditions of our True Parents, the clergy and representatives of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Israel a fourth Israel is now proclaimed. Due to the unity and sacrifice of our leaders and our Blessed Central Families this victory is now being brought to America.
Be strong and of good courage.
Thanks for your faith.

TITHING - National and Local
(Excerpted: Please click here, to see the whole message.)
Rev. Jenkins (1/24/2004)
Dear Family,
Tithing is a spiritual principle that when practiced sets in motion universal laws that are based on give and take. The scripture says in II Corinthians 9:6 " But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully."
Do it out of love for God and Humanity. It is a universal spiritual principle but the seed only takes root when it is sown with heart and love. (Please click above, to see the whole message.)
Three More Pilgrimages to the Holy Land
(Excerpted: Please click here, to see the whole message.)
Rev. Jenkins (1/23/2004)
Dear Family,
Father has commissioned three more Pilgrimages to the Holy Land. The tentative dates are the February 24 thru March 1st (still to be finalized), May and September. . . .
. . . A new world dispensation will begin on February 4th on Capitol Hill when we honor outstanding Ambassadors for Peace and reconcile the Sons of Abraham.
This is the Day that the Lord Has Made. Father's words given after the first pilgrimage show the clarity with which God's providence is now following unfolding:
"The clergy have come back from Israel. They had a very historic mission. They must embrace the first Israel. This it the formula. The Second Israel must help the first and third Israel. This is why Father sent the clergy on this mission. The First Israel and Second Israel failed in their appointed hour to receive the Lord. To restore that, True Father was sent by God from the third Israel to the second Israel in the reverse order according to the law of indemnity. God sent Father to America to save the second Israel. Once Father secured the Second Israel then he could now go back to save the First Israel. Now to the clergy I give the following instructions:
1. You must embrace the first Israel, win their hearts and then solve the problem of the struggle in the Middle East, in particular solve the problem of the struggle between the Palestinians and Jews.
2. You must bring this solution before the key American leaders to show the power that True Parents now have.
3. Upon this foundation you must influence the Second Israel of America to help unify North and South Korea.
Things are going forward according to a providential time table. Father went into a very deep period of struggle and indemnity on March 15th. He battled intensely in the spirit world to overcome the final problems of the world. No one knows what Father went through. It was an historic battle in heaven and on earth. Now Father has emerged stronger and more powerful than before. On March 15th Father started the indemnity course then on May 15th the clergy entered Jerusalem on their historic mission and on August 15th we celebrate the official establishment of Korea in 1948. These are all connected.
In 1945 everything was ready to connect to True Father. But the John the Baptists failed. Maria Pak who was head of Ehwa Women's University was in a most important position. She failed and went against Father. Father was ready to proclaim the DP and was 25 years old but because the prepared Christians failed everything was lost. God had set up everything at that time to allow Father to be received by Christianity and then to be connected with the American government (via the U.S. military in Korea after WWII) and then to have a triumphal journey to the modern day Rome of America. Unfortunately, because of the failure of the Christians that were prepared to meet Father, everything was lost. Father went into the 40 year wilderness course to pursue the path of restoration through indemnity. That's why these Christian leaders are extremely important. Their mission is most important. Please be serious as you listen to me.
This is a critical time. Many world level problems will come to America in the next six months. This next six months are most crucial. On March 15th Father went into struggle. America went into confusion and struggle. Now Father has emerged strong and is calling for a strong UN.
You must connect to the true Olive tree. Blessed Central Families must come to an international level of uniting with True Father. Then you can cut off of the wild olive tree and graft onto the true olive tree. We will follow the blessed couples tradition. Your blessed couple is Abel. All the Cain world must follow the blessed couples in Abel's role. You are Abel, what ever idea comes, youth groups, middle age, old age (which ever you feel called to work with), you can teach them about the blessing and through them go all the way to the top of the nation. (Father's address to the Clergy on May 20, 2003 upon their return from the first pilgrimage).
He foretold that the next six months would be most crucial. At the end of that six months Jesus was embraced on the stage of eternal history by his Jewish family. That reconciliation broke the curse that prevented Ishmael and Isaac from reconciling. Now that the restoration is accomplished it is inevitable that Ishmael (Islam) and Isaac (Christianity and Judaism) will reconcile. That's why Jewish leaders are now coming to America rejoicing in their hearts and determined to go together with their Muslim and Christian brothers and sisters - hand in hand to bring this historic reconciliation of Abrahams family to Washington. Upon the victory in Washington, True Parents will bring this victory to the whole world. The Peace Kingdom is inevitable. The more we sacrifice, the faster it will come.
Revelation 3:11-13: Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown. Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
Thanks America.

Archbishop G. Augustus Stallings - Testimony to True Parents on February 4th
(Excerpted: Please click here, to see the whole message.)
FFWPU (2/9/2004)
Dear Family,
The following historic address was given before representatives of Congress on February 4th at the Ambassadors For Peace Awards for Leadership in Reconciliation and Peace. Archbishop Stallings is the Chairman of the Executive Committee of the 20,000 member American Clergy Leadership Conference. His speech was given as the introduction to the Coronation Ceremony in which the Crowns of Peace and Glory were offered to True Parents.
February 4, 2004
ARCHBISHOP GEORGE AUGUSTUS STALLINGS: Good evening, family. For we are one family. Brothers and sisters one to another, because we have one God who is father and mother of us all, and we can celebrate the richness of our diversity and be brothers and sisters one to another. . . .
. . . If humanity is to be saved, you and I must save it and we must save it with someone who has the vision and the stamina and the determination to forsake all else and lead us in the pathway to peace. I thank God that I lived to see the presence of a man and woman standing together as the True Parents of heaven and earth, who are willing to march through hell for a heavenly cause and willing to stand up and bring all us together in this one room to love each other as brothers and sisters.
Find someone else who will do what we have seen and heard tonight and I will show you where the Kingdom of God is. The Kingdom of God is right here in this place, and I think we ought to stand to our feet and praise God for allowing us to be alive to see a man and a woman who have stood together as husband and wife and as the True Parents of all humanity and led us to this place where we can truly say we have seen Heaven tonight, and it sure looks good. (Applause)
