Reflection on the Importance of Marriage


Blessing of 400 Liberian Couples in 1994



Words of Wisdom:

" Marriage is a relationship where two partners have give and take in a reciprocal position where they can console each other in times of loneliness, rejoice together in times of happiness, and help each other in times of difficulty. They unite so they can live on the basis of God’s love while moving towards God. This is the life of marriage.

Why do we get married? Marriage allows us to go to the Kingdom of Heaven. Without marrying, we cannot go to the Kingdom of Heaven. So we have to get married in order to be qualified to go to the heavenly kingdom. What is the qualification to go to the heavenly kingdom? It is to resemble God" ... Teachings of Rev Dr & Mrs Sun Myung Moon as True Parents of Heaven, Earth and Humankind.

My Reflection on Marriage:

To all my friends and family who have experienced divorce or simply never married but are still alive to read this, today is your lucky day. To resemble God, in whose image we were made male & female (Gen 1:27), we each need to become one flesh with an (opposite sex) partner (Gen 2:24). Restore your marriage if possible, if not, then work towards a new one. But don't dwell on free sex culture centered on lust it will kill you spiritually.

Marriage and family life is the school of love. To understand the meaning and value of love we must attend the school of love and graduate. Successful graduation, to the heart of God, means staying married to the same people you choice until dead due you part. Any other path, like multiple marriages is sign of failure.

We are not qualify to enter the Kingdom of Heaven, which is the core realm of God's love, without resembling God; meaning having graduated from the school of love. This is God's will. Grace alone is not enough to get you into Heaven. In the beginning of Lord Jesus' ministry both He and John the Baptist talked about the Kingdom of God on Earth (Mt. 3:2; Mt 4:12,17), but upon His Ascension, He and the thief only entered Paradise, as the waiting room to the Kingdom of God (Lk 23:43). Thus He left the key to the Kingdom on earth with Peter (Mt 16:19) until His 2nd Coming.


True Father (Rev Dr. Sun Myung Moon) came as the second coming of Lord Jesus Christ to teach us the true value of marriage and family. While He has ascended into Heaven (from 2012), we still have True Mother (Mrs Hak-Ja Han-Moon) with us, as the 1st Coming of the Holy Spirit manifested in the flesh as the bride of the Lord, to guide us. Together they have manifested the substance of God's love (image) on earth. Now for the first time in human history every human being has access to God's Kingship through the blessing of Marriage and the school of love called blessed family life. Please restore (or build) your marriage and family by 2020 the True Love Way and join us to build God's love kingdom on Earth. Love you all forever.
