Rev. and Mrs. Moon boldly entered Moscow in April 1990 and had a one-on-one meeting in the Kremlin with Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev.
Rev. Moon conveyed his support to Gorbachev of his policies of glasnost and perestroika. Rev. Moon persuaded Gorbachev to allow religious freedom, to allow God to enter the Soviet Union. This meeting was crucially important in the sight of God. It was, the beginning of a peaceful process of the demise of the Soviet empire. Rev. Moon indeed motivated Gorbachev in the direction of peaceful reform. The greatest miracle that occurred in this century was the liberation of the Soviet Union without nuclear war. The threat of nuclear war was the single greatest concern of Rev. Moon. He said, "Thank God, not a single nuclear weapon was used against mankind since 1945."
His Strategy: Love the communist people and educate them about how Marxism/Leninism was fatally flawed; offer them a counterproposal based on Godism, and help them achieve their ideal.
The American journalist Georgie Anne Geyer was stunned to observe such developments, and she wrote an article commenting on the April 1990 Moscow Novosti-World Media Conference program:
"Of all the impossible events that have occurred in the Soviet Union in the last five years, probably none has been as unlikely as the happy meeting in recent days between Mikhail Gorbachev and the Rev. Sun Myung Moon. The Moscow News called Mr. Moon 'the most brilliant anti-communist and the No. 1 enemy of the state'–and then added, please, that it was 'time to reconcile.'”

ReplyDeleteThere is a new story for the reader: I was living in the Soviet Union, and at times it was not easy find a work, when Rev. Moon whose life purpose is to bring new order of peace and harmony visited Moscow. Unfortunately I found out about his visit years later after joining Unification Movement. Apparently The visit of Rev. Moon was not publicized in the media. But the fact that this meeting - between new religious leader and the head of the most powerful communist, atheistic nation took place was a profound sign in bringing reconciliation between former enemies. For those who don’t know about religious work of rev. Moon, you can find more information at following website: Religious Work of Rev. Moon
ReplyDeleteExcellent Anne! I attended this media conference in Moscow,in fact i have some photos of this conference in my blog. It is interesting how twisted things are, many gave so much credit to President Reagan for the downfall of communism, but in truth it is Rev. Moon's Wisdom and teaching of V.O.C.(Victory Over Communism), that was even predicted by Nostradamus.As Mr. John Hogue Commented in his book, Nostradamus, The completed prophecies, page 806,"He is an arch anti-communist"(delivering a great people from subjection),Quatrain [EP104-105]
