Why True Mother Uses Only One Chair: A Theological Reflection
Just recently True Mother stopped using two separate chairs for her and True Father in public gatherings. She instead now uses one chair to sit, perhaps giving the impression there was no chair for True Father. But her reason for the use of only one chair was explained publicly by a Korean leader: it is that God, True Father (Rev. Sun Myung Moon) and True Mother (Mrs. Hak Ja Han Moon) have already become completely one, constituting a Trinity. To me, it makes sense. Only one chair would be needed as long as the Trinity of God, True Father and True Mother is there. *Familyfedihq.org - 2018 03 12 - Theodore Shimmyo - Why True Mother Uses Only One Chair: A Theological Reflection
