  • The Legacy of Unification Political Theology
    The Legacy of Unification Political Theology Dan Fefferman August 28, 2017 "Political theology" investigates the ways in which theological concepts relate to politics, society and economics. In this article, I examine the ways in which the expression of the political theology of the Unification Movement has evolved since its early days, especially in the U.S. From its beginning, Unificationism has had to deal with tensions between its vision of One World Under God and its commitment to ridding the world of threats to that vision, especially that of communism. This tension led to various alliances in the political world that have impacted the Unificationist community significantly and remain unresolved today. Victory Over Communism From the 1960s through early 1980s, the expression of Unification political theology in the public realm was largely focused on "Victory Over Communism." The movement's commitment to world unity transcending race and nationality was prominent in its spiritual and evangelical work, but took a back seat to VOC in terms of activism. Dan Fefferman Divine Principle (DP) itself provides the rationale for giving priority to VOC: "The Third World War is the final conflict in the providence of restoration. Through this war, God intends that the democratic world bring the communist world to submission and build the ideal world… [W]hether the Third World War is waged by force of arms or as an ideological conflict depends upon the responsibility of the people…serving the providence of God…. [I]t is inescapable that this worldwide conflict take place." Reflecting this imperative, Rev. Sun Myung Moon founded the International Federation for Victory Over Communism in 1969 as a major ideological offensive.

    In‐Depth Report Legal Dispute Over The Unification Church‐Owned Parking Lot In Yeouido, Seoul ‐ Hyun Jin Moon April 25, 2011 'Battle of the Princes' takes place in the Unification Church as a fight for 2 trillion won ensues Unification Church Foundation, "Operating company and the former chairman who violated property rights of the church members should be held responsible" Hyun Jin Moon's side (3rd son), "This lawsuit is clearly them trying to 'kill Hyun Jin Moon'" Regardless of who wins the lawsuit, damages will total in the hundreds of millions of dollars By Se Jin Kwon of Monthly Chosun [email protected] Across from the LG Twin Towers in Yeouido, Seoul, at the address of 22 Yeouido‐dong Yeongdungpo‐ku where the construction of Parc 1 is taking place, there’s a desolate feeling with the halting of the construction. A signifant contrast can be seen when compared with the SIFC building across the street, which is showing smooth progress with several stories up already. The City of Seoul reached an agreement in 2005 with an overseas financial institution to begin the construction of the SIFC on the city owned lot and designated Yeouido as a 'Global Financial Center' in February of this year. SIFC and Parc 1 function as essential landmarks of this international financial center. The 56 story SIFC and 72 story Parc 1 were destined to become the new skyscrapers of Seoul. The reason the construction stopped as of November, 2010 is the result of a dispute between the land owner and the superficiary. The original owner of the land is the “Support Foundation for the Holy Spirit Association for the Unification of World Christianity” (hereinafter referred to as the Unification Church Foundation), is the owner of this piece of land and signed a contract with Y22 Finance Investment in May of 2005, which gave Y22 a 99 year term for control over the superficies.

Unification Church of the United States From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Unification Church of the United States is a new religious movement in the United States of America. It began in the 1950s and 1960s when missionaries from Japan and South Korea were sent to the United States by the international Unification Church's founder and leader Sun Myung Moon. It expanded in the 1970s and then became involved in controversy due to its theology, its political activism, and the life style of its members. Since then it has been involved in many areas of American society and has itself gone through substantial changes. Contents 1 Early history 2 Political involvement The New Yorker Hotel, 3 Criticism, opposition, and controversy purchased by the Unification 3.1 "Moonie" Church of the United States 4 Changes in the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s in 1976 and now the site of 5 Church presidents national church headquarters 6 Military service offices. 7 Neologisms 8 References 9 External links Early history In the late 1950s and early 1960s Unification Church missionaries were sent from South Korea and Japan to the United States in order to establish the church there. Among them were Young Oon Kim, Sang Ik-Choi, Bo Hi Pak, David S. C. Kim, and Yun Soo Lim. Missionary work took place in Washington D.C., New York, Oregon, and California.[1] The church first came to public notice in the United States after sociology student John Lofland studied Young Oon Kim's group and published his findings as a doctoral thesis entitled: The World Savers: A Field Study of Cult Processes , which was published in 1966 in book form by Prentice-Hall as Doomsday Cult: A Study of Conversion, Proselytization, and Maintenance of Faith.

  • The Current Situation: Chung Hwan Kwak and Hyun Jin Nim's Positions
    The Current Situation: Chung Hwan Kwak and Hyun Jin Nim’s Positions in Light of the Principle ■ Introduction: True Parents’ Viewpoint of the Current Situation 1. Unprecedented challenges have occurred over the last 18 months leading up to the historic completion of Cheon il Guk on January 13, 2013. 2. Chung Hwan Kwak’s family and Hyun Jin nim took control of UCI and key areas of the providence, beginning with the Washington Times in 2009. 3. True Parents’ wishes and directions have repeatedly been neglected and the will of the worldwide Unification Movement has been ignored. 4. There has been continued disobedience of True Parents’ instructions, including the carrying out of GPF events in Nepal, Korea, Indonesia, Paraguay and soon in Kenya. 5. True Parents have directed that the current situation must be explained and understood from a principled and providential perspective. ■ Hyung Jin Nim’s Guidance to Worldwide Church Leadership 1. According to Father, Chung Hwan Kwak, in the position of fallen Lucifer, has betrayed True Parents and is controlling Hyun Jin Nim, who is in the position of fallen Adam. 2. True Parents are in pain, having invested so much in Rev. Kwak. They are undergoing God’s situation at the time of the Fall, where Lucifer betrayed God at the last moment. 3. Rev. Kwak has been influencing Hyun Jin Nim to leave and betray True Parents and go toward Rev. Kwak’s family. Rev. Kwak’s family members are involved in this. 4. If we truly love Hyun Jin Nim and want him to return to True Parents, we must speak up and testify about what is going on at this final moment of history.

  • The Unificationist Funerary Tradition
    religions Article The Unificationist Funerary Tradition Lukas Pokorny Department of Religious Studies, University of Vienna, 1010 Vienna, Austria; [email protected] Received: 22 April 2020; Accepted: 17 May 2020; Published: 20 May 2020 Abstract: This paper explores the distinctive funerary tradition of the Unification Movement, a globally active South Korean new religious movement founded in 1954. Its funerary tradition centres on the so-called Seonghwa (formerly Seunghwa) Ceremony, which was introduced in January 1984. The paper traces the doctrinal context and the origin narrative before delineating the ceremony itself in its Korean expression, including its preparatory and follow-up stages, as well as its short-lived adaptation for non-members. Notably, with more and more first-generation adherents passing away—most visibly in respect to the leadership culminating in the Seonghwa Ceremony of the founder himself in 2012—the funerary tradition has become an increasingly conspicuous property of the Unificationist lifeworld. This paper adds to a largely uncharted area in the study of East Asian new religious movements, namely the examination of their distinctive deathscapes, as spelled out in theory and practice. Keywords: Unification Church; funeral; death; ritual; new religious movement; Korea; East Asia 1. Introduction “‘Death’ is a sacred word. It is not a major expression for sorrow and pain. [ ::: ] The moment one enters the spiritual world is a time that one enters a world of joy and victory with the earthly life having blossomed, the fruits borne, and the grain ladled. It is a moment we [i.e., those staying behind] should rejoice. It should be a time when we celebrate wholeheartedly.
