HumanBeings

All human beings originate in God and are made in His image.God is a God of heart and love and , a subject who wants to give love to an object.God needs an object in order to be able to give His love.

He created us in His image so that we can be His partners in love, His children.Our love, life and ideals come from God, and we feel these are the most precious things because they aremost precious to God. But God cannot have love, life and his ideal all by himself. He needs a reciprocal relationship with a partner of love. God created human beings as His object, His partner of love.

To realise God’s purpose of creation we should fully reflect His nature bybecoming a true human being, a person of heart and love, a child of God.

God comes down to the central point where man and woman meet in love for God and each other.The Settlement Point of the FourGreat Loves.

A man’s sexual love belongs exclusively to his wife and a woman’s sexual love belongs exclusively to her husband.They are the precious gift of God, the source of true love, life and lineage.

Unmarried people should be committed to the ideal of unchanging love for their future spouse.

Instead we have to educate them to recognize the terrible results of free sex and false love, and the value of true love and good families.

As leaders standing in front of God, you can give a positive influence to your nation.

Children hope to see their parents as anexample of true love.

The younger generation want to see leaderswho live an exemplary life.

We have original sin because the love of the first ancestors was not centered on God's blessing.

They violated God's cosmic plan and hope.

Because Adam and Eve failed their responsibility in love, human history began as a sinful history centered on Satan. They became false parents and initiated false love, false life and false lineage.
