Divine Principle means principles coming from God. The articles listed here are organized according to topics.

Introduction to the Divine Principle
Title & link Photo First lines of article Date written Media What is truth? Because God is alive, God's Truth also is alive. Because God is absolute, God's Truth also is absolute. Because God is eternal, God's Truth also is eternal. Because God is unique, God's Truth also is unique. Because God is growing, God's Truth also is growing. Because God’s wish is to make us pure, God’s Truth also is purifying. 1999 The ideal world is being built An ideal world is possible and is coming into being because God planned an ideal world and God is Absolute. The reason that people often lost faith in the Ideal is because they were defeated by the force that also destroyed God's original world. That force is strong, but not unbeatable. 1999
Principles of creation

To understand about forces of nature, such as gravity and electricity and forces working on the smallest level of atoms it is not enough to only look at the physical level. July 29, 2006 The magnificent human body The human body is the most valuable and most beautiful creation in the physical world. There is nothing comparable in the universe. From an external viewpoint, it is a magnificent instrument, capable of highest intellectual, emotional, sensitive, motorial, energetic and artistic achievement. Feb. 28, 2008 Becoming a body of truth The universe is built according to logical laws and principles. This is the reason why scientists can discover and describe such laws and why many physical events are predictable. Also all our technology is based on understanding cosmic principles. March 8, 2008 The spiritual aspects of God's creations are eternal gifts of love, truth and energy God created the universe and all beings and things. God created this from love. We also say that all beings and things originally are bodies of God's truth, expressing the fact that there is design and principle in all that God created. We know that all that exists is basically energy, therefore it is also correct to state that all beings and things are expressions of God's energy. Jan. 15, 2010 The Four-Position Foundation - for children (video) & - Text All that exists was made by God and is connected to God. God works through the unity between one of God's creations and another one in order to make something new. For example, through a father and a mother a new child is created. God, father, mother and child form four positions who ideally are united in God. April 2, 2010 Video

Title & link Photo First lines of article Date written Media A plea to include the spiritual reality as a field of science There are many definitions of what science is. Here I want to plea for the installment of a science of the spiritual reality. I do believe that it is possible to gain knowledge of the spiritual world in a scientific way, but first we need to think about what science exactly means, or has come to mean. Oct. 7, 2009 Before you believe that every angel is good... Before you believe that every angel is good, consider that there are angels of darkness posing as angels of light and they may have applied one of the following tricks... Nov. 5, 2009 Three stages of spiritual abilities As we grow in learning to have good dominion over the spiritual world, we go through three stages. These stages are not exactly the same as the stages of growth to individual maturity in God's love. They specifically refer to spiritual abilities, which we need to develop in some kind of way, but which by themselves are not a guarantee to be on the good side. Nov. 7, 2009
The spiritual meaning of Holy Grounds and Holy Trees Systems of Holy Grounds and Holy Trees have existed in the past and they do exist in the present in different religions and cultures. It may be different how such places are used in the physical world. Often they are sites of prayer and contact to the spiritual world. Sometimes temples are built on such locations. Jan. 25, 2010
Some details about the relationship between the spirit self and the physical self The Divine Principle explains that there exists a relationship between the spirit self and the physical self. Both the spirit self and the physical self have a mind and a body, the mind being internal to the body in an external position. The spirit self has a spirit mind and a spirit body and the physical self has a physical mind and a physical body. Feb. 6, 2010

Principles of restoration
Title & link Photo First lines of article Date written Media Some principles concerning restoration of blood lines The following is a revelation from an angel Mibil. 'Mibil' is a pseudonym, not the angel's real name. The principle of restoration that must be applied to restore God's ideal is based on attempts to unify two brothers in a family. August 27, 2006 The younger inspires and the elder protects A new child is born in a house and something really wonderful happens. A natural miracle of love and harmony occurs that teaches us a principle that we so often tend to forget. A child is born and everyone is inspired. Elder brothers and sisters, aunts and uncles, grandparents and friends, they all want one thing: to be inspired by the newborn. Jan. 27, 2007 Egypt, the wilderness and Canaan in our own lives We all go through stages in our lives that are comparable to the course of the Israelites who after they left slavery in Egypt went through the wilderness to eventually enter the promised land of Canaan. Personally I find the account of this part of the history of the Jewish people one of the most meaningful of the Bible. The deeper we understand this story, the more we can recognize the stages of this course in our own lives. Oct. 16, 2009 Israel and the task to make victory over angels Adam and Eve could not reach perfection because instead of taking dominion over the world of angels, they were influenced by angels and began to look up to them as if they were God. It is the task of Adam and Eve to restore themselves to the positions of restored Adam and restored Eve. This can only be accomplished in a process of restoration in which Adam and Eve must win a battle over angels. Dec. 28, 2009 Family lines of heavenly restoration When man was created, already the angels existed. We know the fall of man to be one of an invasion by angels. Man came under the influence of fallen angels and man's situation, man's heart, mind and body were affected by their fall. A main result of the fall of man is what we call original sin. 'Original sin' is a concept that describes the first sin of man and it also refers to the first invasion by angels into man's existence. Jan. 7, 2010 The correct order needed for the Foundation of Faith The fall meant that the universal order as created by God was turned upside down. Lucifer the angel, who should have been object to Adam the child of God, became subject to Adam. Always fall means that the original subject-object order is turned upside down, and restoration of faith means that the original subject-object order is restored. March 11, 2011
The Last Days
Title & link Photo First lines of article Date written Media Lonely seekers in a frenzied world While i prepare this blog i watch the news on BBC and CNN and i see the turmoil of a world gone mad. The wars that go on or threaten to come demonstrate the defeat of the moral institutions that have been set up during the past 2,000 years or more. Most people seem to walk in line with the mainstream, simply believe what is told to them on the news, take up their arms when they are sent to war. Aug. 22, 2006
