Libby Henkin: True Mother is True Mother


True Mother is True Mother in her own right. True Mother made True Father a True Father, and vice versa. Without each other, they would not be True Parents. By being Blessed with True Mother, True Father made True Mother True Parents, and True Mother made True Father True Parents. True Mother earned her position in her own right, as True Father did, through many years of bitter suffering and bearing 14 True Children, as well as sacrificing for the whole world of past, present, and future Cain children. They did that together and became one. You cannot pick and insert a new True Mother between them who did not qualify. That’s disgusting. The image that comes to mind is the whore of Babylon.
Before they came to America, everyone called True Father Master or Leader. There are still members in Korea who do not and have never accepted True Mother, from the beginning until now. This is the jealousy of women that True Father often talks about. I think Yeon Ah nim may have inherited some of that.
True Father did not "choose" True Mother. God chose her, and True Father discovered her. True Father raised me, Libby, but it was between me and God to create who I am in that disciplining environment that True Father provided. I chose to love him. I am myself in my own right. It is from this perspective that I understand when True Mother says True Father didn’t raise her. Who she created herself to be is between herself and God. We all are influenced by those around us as we grow, still, it is up to “me” to pick and choose. We each create ourselves; that is our portion of responsibility in life. Therefore we have integrity and can be Lords of Creation. True Mother created herself with God in an environment that True Father provided and in relationship to True Father. Also True Father created himself in relationship to True Mother. They have walked this life together.
True Mother is True Mother in her own right. No one can give that position to her, and no one can take it away. Hyung Jin nim cannot decide who True Mother is. True Father had to earn the position of Messiah and True Father, and he did it. True Mother had to earn the position of True Mother and Messiah, and she did it. True Father emphasizes that he and True Mother are one, that she should stand beside him, and that when True Mother is present without True Father, we should recognize that she represents them both. True Father says we should recognize True Mother as True Parents and treat her that way.
So True Father is still with us on earth, yes! He is acting with full strength and authority through True Mother. You may not like everything she is doing. Weren’t there times you disagreed with True Father? Get over it. Fathers and mothers may do things differently and may disagree, but that is no excuse for disuniting with your mother. Saying I will only unite with one of my parents is wrong and unfilial. Someone who has proved herself the way to True Mother has should not be treated in and unfilial way by her son and his cadre. When you don’t like what your parents are doing, you don’t just pick a new one. Mothers are not disposable because they are women. My parents are always my parents. True Parents will never change.
The crux of my disagreement with the sanctuary church is SC assumes True Mother is suddenly disunited with True Father after all these years of proving herself, because her son says so, while I accept the Supreme Authority of True Mother. Sanctuary church does not believe that a wife can stand in the position of her husband in the family when the husband passes on to spirit world, because she is a woman, and because Hyung Jin nim says so. I do think so, especially in the case of True Mother, who became one with True Father. True Father is still alive with True Mother. I believe True Mother has the right to lead in True Father's place, as True Father said.
True Mother is championing the second generation. She has called for all leaders to find their replacement among second-generation and raise and train them. This is a transition time and a time of training we are going through with some of the second-generation. It seems it is not time for Hyung Jin nim to fully lead yet, not until True Mother signs off on it. There was a time that we all loved and welcomed Hyung Jin nim’s future successorship. Hyung Jin nim apparently did not want training from True Mother, only True Father. He is only half-baked to take on the role True Parents wanted him to take. He is amazing but would be doubly so. I believe True Mother would have trained him in some important things of life that he is missing (me too, but he was the One, not me). He would have inherited the gift of the foundation of both True Parents and been greater than the sum total of them both. I lament that loss for the world.
