2.2 God's sorrow at humankind's ignorance

You must inherit the tradition that God has wanted to teach to parents, children, couples and siblings. That is the perfection of the four-position foundation. That is the purpose of creation. The completion of God's Will is the completion of the ideal of creation.
The completion of God's ideal of creation is the completion of the four-position foundation. What is the completion of the four-position foundation? It is to have matured as children, parents, siblings and spouses in God's true love through education.
God's sorrow stems from never having been able to teach people how to be mothers and fathers who have inherited His tradition, so we all should initiate His royal standard in our families. That is the way we can complete His Kingdom on earth! (223-201, 11/10/1991)

What caused God's sorrow? It is the fact that He could not teach His children. He did not have the chance to educate really grown-up sons and daughters. There isn't any substitute for that education in this world. There is no educational principle.
The original principle of education had love, the principle of the unified family and the perfection of mankind as its central focus. God's deepest sorrow resulted from not being able to educate His children - that Adam and Eve, as brother and sister, could not uphold that relationship. (223-278, 11/12/1991)

God never really had a chance to educate His children. It is His hope to teach humanity through the Unification Church. People who are completely united with God's love can see others as true brothers and sisters.
Adam and Eve were brother and sister. God never educated them. That is the work of the Unification Church. If only they had reached full maturity as a true brother and sister, they would have been qualified to be a married couple. No one has ever taught his or her children anything of what God wanted to teach.
Adam and Eve were God's children and, at the same time, brother and sister to each other. Eventually they should have been husband and wife and parents to their children in the place of God. It is the mission of the Unification Church to teach the world the standard of God's ideal, which God never had a chance to do. (223-356, 11/20/1991)

What God's hope has been is to educate His sons and daughters centering on true love that embodies His ideal. It is His sorrow that He could not teach us true brotherly and sisterly relationships in His true family, with His love as the central focus.
It is His sorrow that He could not teach His children about His love in the family setting. There is no textbook on how to be true brothers and sisters, good husbands and wives, and good fathers and mothers.
Nor is there a textbook on the traditional family of the heavenly nation with God as its central focus. Today, the Unification Church is seeking to create these. (224-30, 11/21/1991)

What is God's hope? What hasn't He been able to teach? He could not educate His children centering on true love. He could not teach the right way for sons and daughters to behave. He could not actually educate His children to the official standard.
Children have brothers and sisters. God could not teach them how to be good brothers and sisters. Even more essentially, He could not teach people how to be good husbands and wives. Through people becoming husbands and wives, they become parents.
God could not educate people to be true children, true brothers and sisters, and true husbands and wives in the family of His true love. That is why people have not experienced true parental love, true conjugal love, true fraternal love and true filial love. That is precisely what we must teach people.
Women had neither true brothers nor true husbands representing Adam's position. Why? No one has ever reached perfection or the standard of parents.
We lost everything and need a true man to restore it. (224-79, 11/21/1991)

What caused God's sorrow? He could not create the prototypical textbooks instructing on being heavenly children, heavenly siblings, heavenly spouses, and heavenly parents. His sorrow comes from never having been able to teach humanity with textbooks for guiding these four distinct and essential relationships.
If He had been able to teach humanity and guide them at the right time, there would not be such misery in this world. When He sees the misery, He feels responsible and blames Himself for not having educated us. He has been longing for the day when He could teach people freely.
To be the people to create the new nation, we must attain that educational level. Unless you become such individuals, families, tribes, peoples and nations, you cannot be part of the new nation.
Hating your own brothers is like hating God and your own parents. It is destroying and denying your roots. It is driving away love.
Not only God but also parents and even all things would abhor people that would do such a thing. They become enemies of God, True Parents and all creation. God could not educate Adam and Eve to live the heavenly way.
When you look at all things, you'll see that plus and minus exist. The plus symbolizes man and the minus symbolizes woman.
Man represents heaven and woman represents earth. Man represents the front and woman represents the back. One cannot make a full circle without acknowledging and accepting the other.
What it means is that God, man and all creatures hate it when one ignores the other. You must teach people thoroughly that everything should exist in reciprocal harmony. That is what God wanted to teach us.
A woman has God, parents and her husband. That woman is Eve. Adam stands in the opposite position. Before Adam, there is God, his parents and his wife, Eve.
That is why Adam and Eve were supposed to give birth to children in place of God and parents. They were supposed to give birth to children not of themselves, but as representatives of the entire cosmos. You should educate your own children focusing on the principle of love, the three kinds of true love. (225-215, 01/20/1992)

God's sorrow comes from not having been able to educate Adam and Eve to reach perfection. His sorrow comes from not having been able to educate them centering on the principle of education.
Next, there was no textbook of education on the heavenly family.
He could not teach people how to be brothers, good husbands or wives, and to live their lives on a daily basis.
He could not teach people how a man representing heaven and a wife representing earth should form a union; how a man should be on the right and a woman on the left; how the east and the west should be connected; and how people should live in harmony as true brothers and sisters. Married couples could not be educated centering on God's love.
God could not educate people on the four different relationships. Those who have the right education should raise their children and train them in the right way. They should also be the leaders of their own tribes. So, when they enter the spirit world, the perfection of children, siblings, spouses and parents should be realized. (226-156, 02/04/1992)
