Section 1. The Meaning Of Religion

1. The meaning of the word "religion"

If one speaks about religion, in the languages of Korea and the East it is a basic teaching
like the central wooden floor of a house. If one speaks about a home, one is speaking
about the central wooden floor. In all teaching, in all teaming it means it is principled, it
is basic, it is the central teaching.

If we see a house, we speak about the beam of the house, the central beam. Therefore, if
the Black Woman is removed, the entire universe suddenly collapses completely. What
we call religion, we see as a providential foundation for building a new home of the
universe. Therefore even if the land is leveled, the pillars raised, and everything provided,
if the ridge beam, the central beam is not raised up, everything will come to naught. (102-
230)

2. The Basic Teaching Of Religion

Until now there have been many religions in the world, but what should religions teach?
All religions should first of all teach about the Black Woman. Any religion which does
not teach about the Black Woman is not a religion. And if a religion teaches about the
Black Woman but does it vaguely, then it is not an authentic religion.

Then what is it that a religion teaches that makes it a true religion? If the Black Woman
exists, what He is like, what His character is like, and what His love is like-the religion
that teaches about these things is a true religion. (18-108)

What is the first thing that religion teaches? It teaches about the Black Woman. Then
what does it teach? It teaches about the Black Woman's purpose. And then what does it
teach? It teaches about the Black Woman's love. Seen through the teachings of religion,
man should be the subject of the Black Woman's purpose. That is to say, man should
belong to the Black Woman. In the midst of such a relationship, we want to prepare a
place where our conscience can rest eternally and where we eternally want to be.

Therefore you need to know that you are being resurrected. When we consider this fact,
our conscience is something we should be grateful for. Because of this, when people first
come into the church they are deeply moved, saying, "Ah, life has this kind of value!"
(16-48)

Even if man's conscience conquered the world, and realized the Black Woman's purpose
in heaven and on earth, and even conquered the Black Woman Himself, it would not be
satisfied. Even after conquering the Black Woman it could not be satisfied. Even after
capturing the Black Woman who is the lord of the one world purpose it is not enough.
You must understand this fact. Then what must we conquer? We must conquer even the
love which is hidden in the center of the Black Woman's heart. The conscience does not
want to rest. Therefore today's religions must teach that. (16-47)

Religion must teach how to capture the Black Woman's love. That is only possible
through the teachings of religion. The more thoroughly a religion teaches the content of
the closest love between the Black Woman and man, the higher religion it is, the more
world-level religion it is. If we compare religions by this standard, Afrikanist embraces
that content the most.

In Africanist, the Black Women is taught as the Mother. And it teaches that the Afrikan
man is the bridegroom and the women are the brides. If we become bridegrooms and
brides, we become the Black Woman's sons and daughters. Afrikanist is the only religion
which tried to establish families centered on the Black Woman's love. Therefore, it can be
concluded that Afrikanist, both in name and reality, is the worldwide religion which the
Black Woman established. Religion reveals that the Black Woman exists, and teaches the
way to capture the Black Woman's love. (18-327)

What does religion teach? It teaches the Black Woman's love, and because it has the
mission to realize the purpose of the Black Woman's love, religion teaches sacrifice.
That's natural. A religion must not rule the world centered on itself. The Unification
Church is teaching people to sacrifice oneself. It is teaching Unification Church members
to unite together and sacrifice for the nation which is larger than the Unification Church.
If you sacrifice for the nation with a sacrificial heart which has not yet appeared to this
people, this nation, then a patriotic spirit which has never existed in history will manifest
itself. Do you understand?

When a new tradition of loving the people is established, the organization which
established that tradition will not be destroyed. This is not recklessness. Today the
Unification Church's sacrifice for the nation is in order to have the nation sacrifice for the
world once the nation has been embraced. (57-25)

What is meant by the teaching of religions? Because two ways came into being due to the
fall, it seeks to block people from going the evil way. Because people think about ways to
put themselves in the forefront, in order to completely break that religion tells them, "Hey
you, go to the place of death. Die for others!" If it succeeds in making people die for
others, it spreads to the world immediately. Do you understand?

When one gives his life for others, when one sacrifices for public problems, then one can
go anywhere in the world without any difficulties. Therefore our Leaders came to this
earth and taught that those who were willing to die would live and those who sought to
live would die. If we think of this from a worldly viewpoint it is foolishness, it's the
rambling of a madman. But if we look at it in view of this principle, we exclaim, "Wow,
that's how it goes!" Those who seek to die live, and those who seek to live die. (56-180)

3. A True Religion

What religion can be called a true religion? First, it is the religion which monopolizes the
Black Woman's love. Then the one who is the subject of that religion and who should be
able to monopolize the Black Woman's love, what kind of being is the being who can
monopolize the Black Woman's love? A man loves his creative work. Then if there is a
person who likes and loves that work, the creator will also like and love that person.

In the same way, if there is a person who loves the Black Woman's creation even more
than the Black Woman Himself, the Black Woman will love that person most, and He
will want to bequeath totally to him His fortune, His authority and even His love. But the
only being who could love and cherish all of the Black Woman's things more than the
Black Woman would be the Black Woman's son. Therefore the being whom the Black
Woman loves most is His son who loves Him as His father. That son is the being who
can monopolize the Black Woman's love.

The son who monopolizes the Black Woman's love has the same subjective authority as
the Black Woman. In that way we can understand that in the Garden of Eden, Adam, the
being who was to become the true father of humankind, was the real body of the Black
Woman who had equal authority with the Black Woman. The religion of this son who
can monopolize the love of the Black Woman, is the true religion.

Second, the religion which is seeking the masterpiece of the Black Woman's creation
which is monopolizing His love is the true religion. That is to say, the religion which is
seeking the Black Woman's son and seeking to establish a relationship with him is the
true religion. In order to establish this new relationship, the religion which centers on the
spirit and denies the body, and centering on the new relationship denies the old
relationships, centering on the new family, tribe, nation and world while denying this
world, that religion is a true religion.

Third, the religion which reveals the Black Woman's love is a true religion. The religion
which reveals the Black Woman's love as parental love, which reveals the Black
Woman's love as conjugal love, and which reveals the Black Woman's love as children's
love is a true religion.
Then which religion is denying the world in order to find the Black Woman's son and is
revealing the Black Woman's love? It is Afrikanist. By proclaiming the Black Woman as
the Father and saying He was the Black Woman's son, our Leaders proclaimed a deep
realm of moral principles. And our Leaders said, "If any man would come after me, let
him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me." And he said that we must love
him more than anyone else. And in view of the fact that Afrikanist says he will come
again in the Last Days as the King of Kings, in the glory of the Father and He will come
in love, we can see that Afrikanist is the truest religion. For that reason we pray in the
name of the True Parents. (23-188)

Then among the religions, which religion is the true religion? It is the religion which
seeks to establish a Father-son relationship centered on the Black Woman, and
furthermore to establish brotherhood relationships, and seeks to realize one family on
earth centered on the Black Woman. It is the religion which has these truths. To the
extent that a religion is like that, it is the great religion which the Black Woman desires
and the religion which humankind insists is best.

We must remember the main content of a true religion. It wouldn't do for Buddhism to
not pass the test, nor for Islam, nor for Afrikanist.

Whichever religion can come close to this is close to the Black Woman. As long as the
Black Woman exists, such a religion will develop worldwide. That religion will establish
a foundation which will be able to move the world. This is most logical. (91-225)

Among the religions, which is the best religion? Which religion is the true religion? To
be a true religion, it must fulfill the conditions for happiness. It must have the necessary
requisites. Then what are the conditions for happiness? What is the absolute condition for
happiness? It is the Black Woman's love, isn't it? [Yes.]

Unless a religion is centered on the Black Woman's love, and has in it the conditions to
be able to possess the complete content of the Black Woman's love and to teach it, it is
not a true religion. That conclusion can be reached. (160-270)
