*Read Slide*Read Slide*The Family is challenged and the church is challenged. Read Slide.*One of the biggest challenges facing the church is the problem of abuse and the breakdown of the family. Many have lost confidence in the church. *Through the Bible however we must affirm Gods original plan. Read Slide.*In Gen. 1:28 God gave three the three blessings: To be fruitful, multiply and have dominion. To be fruitful means to be mature with our mind believing Gods word and our body doing it. James 1:22: But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. Then as a man who has fulfilled Jesus command in Matthew 5:48 we should marry, multiply and have dominion. *Jesus made it clear in Matthew 19 4-10. *We must understand Gods Commandment and the result of the disobedience of the first ancestors. *Jesus reveals in John 8:44 that man came under a false Father Satan. *As a result, there are two archetypes at the root of humanity.These two archetypes are the basis for the conflict within.*1. Fallen Man, then, is in the MIDWAY position between God and satan each possessing a valid claim.*1. Fallen Man, then, is in the MIDWAY position between God and satan each possessing a valid claim.*The ACLC is bringing forth new Wine. God is revealing his hidden truths in the Bible at this time. *Jesus tells us that in the Last days he will reveal the truth. *To solve the problem violence of the first family and the problems in our streets, community, nation and world, we need to understand the truth behind the Bible. We must understand Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Originally man was to have dominion over all of creation. But because of disobedience and the jealousy of the Archangel man gave up his proper position. *This allowed the Archangel to become the false god and false ruler of this world. 2 Corinthians 4:4 the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers John 12:31 now shall the ruler of this world be cast out

*The proper order must be restored. But how? What happened with Cain and Abel? Abel should have loved Cain and then liberated him from the influence of Principalities. *Then with love he would have come to God. Cain killed Abel and multiplies the dominion of Satan. But Jacob and Esau showed the pattern of the victory. Therefore Jesus could come from Jacobs Family. This became the hidden pattern in the Bible. This is the secret of how to defeat the force of darkness in your church. Love Cain, Love Esau. *Here are the many patterns in the Bible. *Jesus is revealing to us now through the anointing of Father and Mother Moon a key pattern in the Bible. Gods will is absolute but yet he gives man a choice. Man has responsibility, therefore Man is given the Word from God that gives him understanding of the consequences of his choices. With Israel God laid it out in Deuteronomy 11 Read the Scripture: Deuteronomy 11:26 29 Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse; A blessing, if ye obey the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you this day: And a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye have not known. And it shall come to pass, when the LORD thy God hath brought thee in unto the land whither thou goest to possess it, that thou shalt put the blessing upon mount Gerizim, and the curse upon mount Ebal. Jer:18:7: At what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up, and to pull down, and to destroy it;Jer:18:8: If that nation, against whom I have pronounced, turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them.Jer:18:9: And at what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it;Jer:18:10: If it do evil in my sight, that it obey not my voice, then I will repent of the good, wherewith I said I would benefit them.*We find that there was always a course of responsibility with Israel. Look at the parable of the Vineyard. (Read the Bible verse or have someone read it. ) Because Israel did not believe God made a new Israel. Like Jacob had 12 sons, and Moses had 12 tribes, Jesus made a new Israel from the 12 disciples. These are the New Tenants. *Israel was told in John 6:28-29 to Believe in Jesus. But they would not. *Jesus went the way of the Cross and washed us with his blood. On that basis we are saved, Yet Paul says that, as a born again believer, he has a problem. - Romans 7:21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me. For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.*Read the Verse*We cannot serve two masters, until the thorn is removed from our flesh we cannot stop the conflict in our home, marriage, community and the world. *Paul talked about this thorn. *Read the slide.*Paul made it clear that we are awaiting another redemption. The redemption of our bodies. *ACLC sees that process now occuring through the blessing. Father and Mother Moon have been anointed as True Parents. Now you as pastors are to become True Parents and bless your families, communities and ultimately this nation. *Read the script. *Jesus and the Holy Spirit have anointed Father and Mother Moon to bless the Family. Dr. E.V. Hill said that Father Moon was chosen by God to save the family and bring all the church together. *. Read Slowly: Now under the power and authority of Jesus and the Holy Spirit you as pastors have the power of True Parents to bless the families and marriages of your church and heal the community, nation and the world. *Read*With this power we can heal the enmity in the world. *Just as Jacob loved and liberated Esau. The Second Israel is now being called upon to heal the first Israel by bringing the love of Jesus in such a way that will allow them to lift up Jesus as the Lord. *The Bible reveals the power of the reconciliation of Jacob and Esau. Jacob loved and sacrificed for Esau his Elder Brother. Now the Christian family as the Younger Brother and Second Israel will apply this anointed power to the First Israel and together we will lift up Jesus as Lord. *On this basis Father Moon is revealing that the reconciliation of all the sons of Abraham will occur. *Read the slide: Jesus says that in the last day he will give all power to those who overcome. *When the Lord Comes we will receive a Crown of Glory. *The Famous Gospel Hymn The Old Rugged Cross tells us that when the Lord Comes we will exchange our cross for a Crown.*Read the Slide and Celebrate the Glory of God.
