Our Final Chance to be Blessed as a Nation of Destiny for Africa

I I. Prelude:

Title: Wake Up Liberia: Your Final Destiny is at Hand

Sermoner: Amb Rev Gerald B. Coleman, God's Boy Child

Date: Sunday Service Sept 25, 2022

II.Abstract:

My topic this morning is given firstly in remembrance of the 10th Ascension Anniversary of our beloved True Father, Rev Dr. Sun Myung Moon, the Lord of the Second Coming and the 2nd Tree of Life relative to Lord Jesus Christ who was the 1st Tree of Life. 

Secondly, I wish to also give reverence to Rev Dr. Hak-Ja Han Moon as our Beloved True Mother and the historic 1st physical incarnation of the Bride of Christ as the Spirt mentioned in Rev 22: 17

"And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will let him take the water of life freely" Rev 22:17

She personally refers to herself as the "Only Begotten Daughter of God" in honor of Her unique victorious life of Attendance to Heavenly Parents as our invisible True Parents of heaven, earth and Humankind.

Thirdly, this message is in honor of our collective search for Peace as a people sharing co-existence on this Singular Planet Earth. On Sept 21, 2022, we the People of the World celebrated the 41st International Day of Peace. Remember this day was first proclaimed by the UN in 1981, a year after we Liberians fell into captivity under the dominion of Men and Women of Violence. Here we are 42 years later still under the Dominion of Evil Governance struggling with our inability to LOVE each other as God loves us. I believe this alone should be a sign from heaven that a change in political leadership is need to bring us True Liberation from a mixed culture of Good and Evil.

Finally my 4th reason for this urgent Wake Up call to Liberia is for our future generation, the YOUTH. As our children they can only learn true leadership by the examples we provide them. In my 70 years of living I gave come to know one truth: Children learn not by what you say or even by what you beat into them, they learn from role models... what they see you doing. I refer to this as Parental Leadership. I personally grew up as a  conflicted child but by the grace of Lord Jesus Christ I met our True Parents, H.E. the Rev. Dr. Sun Myung Moon and H.E. Rev Dr Hak-Ja Han Moon in 1979 exceptly on year before the before the fall of our 1st Republic.

It has been our honor and our greatest distress as a Liberian family to have lived through our past 42 years of national search for peace and meaning. So, on these 4 foundations of remembrance allow me to share with you my fellow Liberians why it is important for our nation to accept and attend our True Parents as the only way to be liberated from this mixed Dominion of Good and Evil governance into the realm of God's New Heaven and Earth mentioned in Rev 21:1-8

III. HDH New Testament Age:

Mt 11:12 "And from the day of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and men of violence take it by force".  

IV. Introduction:

This biblical quote depicts Liberia's situation in 1980. As a nation-state originally founded on Christian Principles in 1847 AD, our LLC  allowed men and women  of violence to destroy Liberia's 1st Republic in 1980. This happened on our 133rd birth anniversary as a nation-state. Remember as a nation founded on Christian principles, isn't it ironic that exactly 33 years after WWII (1947) our 1st Republic should also be crucified? 

The death of Liberty in Africa happened in a scenario quite similar to the nation of Israel approximately 30 AD. At that time Israel was blessed by heaven to receive the Anointed savior Lord Jesus Christ. However, the the Spiritual Elder of Israel, chosen as the forerunner of Christ, John the Baptist, failed his mission, which was to receive Lord Jesus Christ as the Anointed Messiah destined to liberate Israel from Satan's Dominion of Evil. John's mission was not only to introduce Jesus to the Nation of Israel but also to become the Lord's first and foremost disciple. Regrettably, John the Baptist failed this responsibility and suffered the consequence of losing his HEAD! According to my thesis, the death of Liberia's 1st Republic has followed this same scenario.

Today we strive to celebrate our bicentennial (200 years) without any clue of who we are as a Nation of Destiny for Africa. We are like a nation of  the blind leading the blind. 

The historical events of our nation from 1980 until now have been mysteriously linked to the death and resurrection of Lord Jesus Christ as follows:

1. Apri12, 1980: On this Easter month 42 years ago, the 1st Republic of Liberia died suddenly, after 133 years of self-rule by people of Color. 

We are a nation of tribalism born from a nation of Racism.

2. Liberia's 1st Republic had the distinction of being Africa's oldest independent nation founded on Christian Principles second only to Ethiopia.

3. All the eight major symbols of our nation-state depict our nation as a chosen "Nation of Destiny for Africa" quite like the 1st-Israel. As we review these eight national symbols below give us your comments:

1st symbol: Our original national flag had a Cross instead of a star in the blue field.

2nd Symbol: Our national Seal depicts Noah's family and God's search for a people of His own - linked to a new land of Canaan.

3rd Symbol: The original name of our capital city Monrovia was Christopolis meaning the "City of God" in Africa, as a New Jerusalem (Rev 21:1-2).

4th Symbol: Our national V-ring symbolizes the Lord's Blessing upon our nation to be one of the Victorious Nation-states destined to receive him at his second coming. This is mentioned in Rev 3:11-12, relative to the (6th) Church of Philadelphia - Lord Jesus said:  "He that overcometh, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God..."

5th Symbol: Our national Pledge of Allegiance symbolizes our absolute faith, love, obedience, and wisdom towards God's ideal of life. It reads: "I pledge Allegiance to the flag of Liberia and the Republic for which it stands. One nation indivisible, with liberty and justice for all".

6th Symbol: Liberia's Constitution was signed in the Providence Baptist Church, representing our Nation-State being founded on Christian principles. Similar to the Crowning of Constantine by Pope Leo X in the Holy Roman Church.

7th Symbol: The D Twe Prophecy of William Harris was recognition by heaven of our national destiny.

8th Symbol: The seed land of Liberia was Providence Island symbolizing Paradise Isle (Pi) the first landing site of our forefathers.

Together these 8 national signs are our miracles and wonders, like the blood of the Lamb on our Door. The reason why heaven allowed Signs and miracles was to convince the chosen people that God's grace was with them.         

Q Why are We Today a Failed Fragile State Instead of Victors?

4. Suddenly around Easter on April 12, 1980, Liberia's 1st Republic was Dead. She died exactly 33 years after World War II linked to 1947, quite parallel to the death of Lord Jesus Christ who was also  crucified at the tender age of 33. 

5. We can show a similar historical parallel between Lord Jesus' death in his 1st Coming and the death of Liberia's 1st Republic around April 12th of 1980. Both events were associated with Easter and the Resurrection... meaning they were prelude signs of Christ  2nd Coming.

 Remember the Holy Communion is done in remembrance of Lord... meaning when he finally does return there will be signs 

Root Cause Factor of the Death of Liberia's 1st Republic : 

It can be shown that the root cause of Lord Jesus' death on the Cross was the failure of his family (particularly John the Baptist his 1st Cos, Mary his Mother, His various disciples, etc.) and disciples to recognize and assist his mission as the chosen Avatar of Heavenly Parents - the Anointed Savior of Humankind in the Flesh.

5.1  John the Baptist was regarded by the people of Israel as a respected Spiritual Elder even a Bishop. His failure to properly attend to Jesus was the prime cause of his early death and the root cause of Lord Jesus' death and crucifixion for Blasphemy. 

5.2 In Mt 11:12 we learned that the faithlessness of John the Bap st was the root cause of God's Kingdom being linked to Men of Violence.

We can show likewise show that the death of our 1st Republic was also associated with our national faithlessness as a Nation of Destiny for Africa. And by faithlessness, I am not talking about faithlessness towards Christ or Allah, but faithlessness towards God as our Original True Parents and Creator in the flesh. 

It all started with the faithlessness of our Leadership Class. It was this more than anything else that led to the death of our 1st Republic with the Resurrection of our 2nd Republic as a Dominion of Evil Governance during the 1980s. Many of you are wondering how can I possibly know this for certain. The answer is simply. I AM THE ELDEST WITNESS TO THIS FACT!

I joined the UC in 1979 just as the Rice Riot broke out.

I returned to Liberia June 1980 and had been here since.

I served as a Commissioner of Liberia's TRC 

I was the first and only Liberian Blessed directly by the LSA to a Korean.

VI. Liberia Losses It Head of State as Indemnity for Faithlessness to the LSC:

Liberia losing  William R. Tolbert as our Head of State. and President of the Baptist World Alliance was the direct consequence of faithlessness to LSC at a critical moment of providential history..  

Suddenly in 1980 our 20th President William R. Tolbert who was also at the time President of the World Baptist Alliance was murdered in cold blood on April 12, 1980the  during the Easter season. How ironic! that.

2. This was a Historical Parallel Events: Just as John the Baptist lost his head due to his failure to reconcile his resentment towards Lord Jesus as his 1st Cousin, Liberia as a nation-state lost its Head of State, who was our John the Baptist figure as President of the World Baptist Alliance, because of our failure as a people to reconcile our resentment towards Heavenly Parents as our collective  True Parents.

Remember as Liberians we are "... one nation, indivisible with freedom, liberty, and justice for all... Is that not our Pledge of Allegiance? 

The fact that the so-called Liberian Leadership Class (LLC) during this  200-year period of our Sovereignty, as Liberty In Africa ruled only by people of Negro descent, is enough evidence that we are collectively Children of the 😈 Devil not Children of God? 

So the past 40 years 1980 to 2020 have been our tribulation period to decide who is our True Owner.

We gave from now until 2027 to make this decision.
