Editor's note: On August 29, 2011, True Father spoke his words about the future “Perfection Level Blessing of True Parents” that was to take place on his birthday in 2012.
The day prior to this planned Holy Wedding of True Parents in early 2012, True Father canceled the wedding and gave Mother one more year to achieve the required level of unity with Father. Father passed (Sept. 3, 2012) into the spiritual world before his next birthday in 2013 and the final stage, the Holy Wedding Ceremony of Perfected True Parents (perfection stage wedding), never took place.
"God wasn't finished with His creation. Individual perfection of the creation wasn't done yet. The perfection of a couple wasn't done yet. These must be done."

"There were three ages in history: the Old Testament Age, the New Testament Age, and the Completed Testament Age. Among these, what kind of an age was the Old Testament Age? It was the age of redemption of children through sacrificial offerings. It was a time preparation for the coming of God’s son. In the New Testament Age, Jesus became the offering for us to receive the parents. This is why, in the age of the Second Coming, we have been preparing to receive the parents by establishing the bride and bridegroom. The reason that I, having the name of the True Parent, have been suffering for forty years as the center of the Completed Testament Age, is to receive God on earth."
