Resurrection of Father
It came to me this morning when I was listening to the Bible (Jesus’ resurrection and Pentecost) during my commute, thinking about True Father’s ascension and the lack of Pentecost thereafter, that while Jesus resurrected three days after his crucifixion, Father resurrected three years after his ascension through Hyung Jin nim, his own son and the successor/inheritor. Don’t you think it does make sense?

Relection of the Past Year
I'd like to share my reflection of the past year or so:
It was quite a journey since then, internally and externally. It started with "something wrong" feelings in 2014 about Mother and changes made in CSG, then there came the shock waves form Hyung Jin nim's sermons in Jan. 2015, followed by despair and depression (much worse than IJN's incident), and finally the decision and determination to join SC and follow and support the second King & Queen, which was my another rebirth not without pain. But now I'm happier, more determined, courageous, guided by and getting closer to God and True Father. Yes, there are and will be many challenges, but I'm learning to be real, substantial, and true to myself, to my heart, and to God-given brothers and sisters, centering on God and True Father. I'm so grateful that I was allowed to come this way, and at the same time, I'm so humbled....
Long Live the King & Queen!
Long Live the King & Queen!

Han Mother's speech at Christmas Dinner Talk
Excerpt from Han Mother's speech at Christmas Dinner in Cheon Jeong Gung on 12/25/15 (Unofficial English Translation form Japanese translation posted on Japanese SC Joint News Blog: see below):
....
Though 50 several years have passed, it doesn’t seem that I’m receiving good services or treated well enough as Only Begotten Daughter. What should I (you) do? (Laughter)
Though 50 several years have passed, it doesn’t seem that I’m receiving good services or treated well enough as Only Begotten Daughter. What should I (you) do? (Laughter)
I’m standing in the position of Only Begotten Daughter who can obtain everything in the world. Do you know that? God has waited for 6,000 years. The Only Begotten Daughter is not someone that anyone can become. When I married, there were no such conditions for the holy blessing as "you should attend workshops”, “you should study the Divine Principle” or “You should fast.”
I know God’s situations even if I do not hear stories (from others). Do you understand that? Thus, I’m different from you all. At the time of Creation, (God) created Adam and Eve, and they were able to freely converse (exchange questions and answers) with God, weren’t they? Were they able to do that, or they weren’t? By the way, I was able to so. That is, I was born knowing everything as informed by God.
Are you getting to understand, everybody? That’s why I was able to let True Father (Abonim), the Lord of the Second Advent succeed. Do you understand? True Father wouldn’t have been able to become “True Parents” without me.
.....
.....
[The conclusion of the speech]
Therefore you should revere and attend me, and must love me still more. Will you do that for me? (Yes.) Then, all of us will become happy.

Response to Eugene Harnett's essay
This is Response to Eugene Harnett's essay. I already replied to him, but wanted to make a separate post:
I appreciate your sincere and loving heart and open-mindedness. Especially, your word: “For in the end, what is more valuable than our technical disagreement is our common love and our common humanity as children of True Parents. We are Family. I am your Family. And you are my Family” sounds beautiful.
However, I have to make it clear that the current division is not “technical disagreement” which can be overcome by humanistic love or sweetness of the word “Family”. If you say “Family” with a capital letter, I believe you mean God’s family, i.e., God’s lineage. True Father said that among love, life, and lineage, the linage is most important as it’s the fruit of love and life. I refrain from further mentioning H1’s separation and IJN’s personal choice of unprincipled love over the lineage, but the current “division” is NOT technical thing but what comes to the core of the Principle and God’s providence of restoration. Why did it take 4,000 Biblical years to send Jesus, and then 2,000 years to send LSA on earth? In order to establish God’s lineage, separated from that of Satan’s and not tainted by Satan, by sending God seed and bring the true Tree of Life, true Adam on earth. Without uniting with the true Adam (LSA) and joining (being engrafted into) the Adam’s lineage, we can’t become “Family.” Of course restored Eve (True Mother) is necessary to complete True Parents’ position and create Adam’s family, but restored Eve herself does not have God’s seed or lineage, though her sons do. In True Family, lives have been sacrificed, love (including conjugal love) has been sacrificed, but God’s lineage is preserved, and established on earth (up to the third generation now)! This IS the very victory of God. This is the very fruit of God’s providence! What Han Mother has been doing is denying God’s lineage, by claiming herself as God’s only begotten daughter, born sinless and thus (as a logical consequence) no need of Messiah, LSA, or salvation by LSA for herself. She’s claiming she can give rebirth to human being through her womb (by loving and uniting with her: one heart, one body, one mind/determination) or coming to Cheong Pyeong, without TF’s seed. She’s saying True Father is from fallen lineage, and she saved True Father. She’s denying her own son whom she herself with True Father once (three times!) anointed and crowned. This is complete denial of God’s providence of restoration, the entire life of True Father sacrificed for the human being, including Mother, and God’s linage. Because Han Mother was found from the fallen lineage, saved by TF/Messiah, and became restored Eve, we, the fallen human being can also be found, saved, and restored, as Mother represents as God’s object partner all of the human beings. Her claiming sinless denies the principle of restoration for fallen humanity. Furthermore, she’s trying to delete TF’s word as its original form and spirit. This is destruction of God’ gift (the 8 great textbooks) given to the humanity for eternity. The salvation of the future humanity is at risk due to Han Mother’s deviation from T
True Father's View v. Han Mother's View
According to Gil Ja Sa (Mrs. Eu)'s testimony, Father talked about Mother as follows:
"We’ve thought that Father is a great person but Mother married Father when she was so young so she doesn’t know anything. Father said that at first he felt that his patience was running thin with Mother after the Holy Marriage. Father said that he thought how could he be able to raise this person to greatness.

Father said that at first he felt that his patience was running thin with Mother after the Holy Marriage. Father said that he thought how could he be able to raise this person to greatness.
Father raised her like his daughter, took care of her like younger sister, sometimes followed her like an older sister, loved her like a lover, discussed things with her as wife, leaned onto her as mother, and watched out for her as grandmother. Father said he raised her through seven such stages.
Father said that he invested the love that Adam had to give to Eve, the love of original nature, so much as his bones might melt. Father said he is able to forgive others but he could not show mercy to Mother, because Mother had to stand at an the equal position with him.
Father said that the most difficult thing was to educate Mother. So Father said "If I had known that the path of becoming the Messiah is for the perfect Adam to find the perfect Eve, and if I had known that it was such a difficult thing to do, I would have refused this Messianic responsibility." Father said that he accepted the task without such foreknowledge. Father had to raise Mother who was as a white sheet of paper from the position of a daughter. That is why Father treated her strictly. It was very difficult for Mother to endure such strictness as well."
(From “A Testimony to God’s Word in Regard to Divine Principle” by Gil Ja Sa)
On the other hand, Han Mother said:
My original, true parent is God. That is what my grandmother taught me. When I was young, she taught me that my father was God. That’s the only thing I learned from her. That is why I was placed under heaven’s protection, where I have remained until this day. Nobody educated me. God’s only begotten son and God’s only be gotten daughter are equal. You cannot say that God’s only begotten son educated God’s only begotten daughter. Do you understand what I am saying?
