Great Construction

Preface, (Creation of Civilization)

     This volume is a major work whose likes have not been seen in all of history. In a word, it should be considered a set of plans for the new civilization. This book is also the good tidings of heaven. It is the bible for the twentieth century as well. To wit, as our present civilization is not a true civilization, it is only a temporary one until the birth of the new. The end of the world mentioned in the Bible refers to the end of this supposed world civilization. The prophecy “And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come” needless to say refers to the appearance and distribution of this book. The Bible is a collection of writings compiled by Christ’s followers about what he did and said, but this volume is also a direct revelation from the Father in heaven referred to by Christ, Jehovah, about matters that Christ repeatedly made mention. In addition, Christian scripture says, “Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” From this it can be seen that Christ himself would not construct a heaven; it means that someone in later generations would construct it.
     I do not say that heaven is approaching. I say this because the time for the appearance of heaven has already come. This appearance is the amazing course that the basic preparations for the construction of heaven that I am presently conducting, although on a very small scale, are advancing at a very high speed. Amazing because all of my work proceeds from miracle to miracle and people marvel. When my work is minutely examined, we find that God has carefully prepared in every detail for this moment from billions of years before. This preparation can be clearly perceived, and it is the basis for the settlement of the accounts of the old civilization and the conception or plan for the new civilization. In this volume, I will explain thoroughly the theoretical aspects backed by actual corroborating evidence for this momentous event.
     First of all, what is most essential to understand about this event is that the old civilization has been under the control of the power of evil and that the power of good was very weak. But the time for this situation to reverse has come, and the world is starting to enter the stage for the realization of paradise on earth. But as to the realization of paradise on earth, there is a matter of grave concern and that is that the accounts of the old civilization naturally must be settled. These accounts are the issue of the very dissolving of the sins and impurities that have accumulated over the long period in which the world has been controlled by evil. This dissolution is the activity of purification on a global scale. Therefore how high the number of victims of this purification will climb is of an extent that probably cannot be imagined. This very purification is the last judgment, and although unavoidable and inevitable, the great love of God has chosen me to help save as many as possible. I am now conducting this great task, and as part of what could be called the overture of this great work is the appearance of this volume. I would hope that this book is read with this point firmly in mind.
     As such, when the last judgment has been settled, the construction of the new world will become the next activity, and the change of all aspects of culture during this period of transition will be an event as never before seen nor likely to be experienced again, completely incomprehensible to the human imagination. Of course, the correction of the errors of the previous civilization is primary but policy for the conception of new civilization will be given as well. This process will be detailed in this book and those who read it are as if having had the lifeline of salvation thrown to them. If they grasp it immediately, they will be saved, but those who do not will of course later regret not repenting sooner and it will be too late. As the preceding has explained, those will large amounts of sin will perish, and those with light amounts will be saved and become the residents of the paradise on earth of the future. The brilliance and splendor of the conception and the immense scale of this approaching paradise on earth is beyond description. I declare that when that time comes it will become abundantly clear just how inferior the civilization until today has been and that humanity will not be able to hold back the tears of joy.
