From Unification Church in Japan about the Woo Group

Mr. Tatsunori Okamoto (6000 Couples), who believes that Mr. Myung Sik Woo has a “special mission,” distributed a document called “95+13 Proposals” in September 2003, and was giving lectures on the so-called “Complete Testament Principle,” recruiting blessed families to his “Tribal Association”.

After studying the Okamoto theory and deciding that it was something that could not be ignored, the three of us (Mitsuo Mori, Masayuki Kachi, and Seiji Takeuchi) summarized the errors of his teachings into 23 different points and published a book called Correcting the Errors of the Spiritual Group, Tribal Association! (Kogensha) on January 25, 2006.

Mr. Okamoto’s group tried to refute Correcting the Errors on their Tribal Association homepage, but seeing that they were at a disadvantage, they closed the website and fled.

They disappeared for some time but returned with a different name, the “Second Generation Counseling Corner”, and published The Problems with the Salvation Theory (November 1, 2008) and One Hundred Proposals (March 24, 2009).  Their new disguised website is called the “Second Generation Counseling Corner” and they have recently been targeting the second generation who are not aware of this group’s real nature.

Mr. Okamoto uses strategies in common with many anti-UC groups.  The three strategies adopted by the anti-UC groups, such as communists and individuals like Mr. Sadao Asami, are as follows:

The anti-UC groups 1Attack Reverend Moon calling him Satan (criticizing the founder), 2Criticize the Divine Principle [referred to as the DP hereafter] as an “immature teaching” (criticizing the DP) and 3Attack the UnificationChurch by describing the “horrible reality of the church” (criticizing the state of the church).

In Mr. Okamoto’s case, he pretends to take the position of a reformist within the UC, but in reality, attacks the church in the same three ways as the anti-UC groups do.  His criticisms are, however, more distorted and subtle.

1Mr. Okamoto’s Criticisms of the Founder

Although Mr. Okamoto claims that he has not criticized Reverend Moon, we wrote in the book Correcting the Errors, that he teaches that “Reverend Moon cannot complete the mission of human salvation” (p. 233).  Mr. Okamoto admits this and goes on to say that Reverend Moon will resurrect through his second coming as the “fourth Adam” (grandson=Mr. Woo’s illegitimate child) in order to become perfect (which is the reason why they are called a spiritual group), and that the purpose of Reverend Moon’s whole life course was to witness in the fourth Adam as a John the Baptist role.

Those who are deceived by this lie end up losing absolute faith for in “imperfect Reverend Moon” and start following the fourth Adam (a false Messiah) made up by Mr. Okamoto’s group.  There is not a more subtle and effective way to make believers abandon their absolute faith in Reverend Moon, who has obtained a victory as the Messiah and as True Parents.

2Mr. Okamoto’s Criticisms of the Divine Principle

The Okamoto theory claims the limitations of the DP.  They point out the part where it says “only a part of the new truth” in the Introduction, and insist that the DP has limitations.  The theory distorts the Principle of Creation and creates its own theory of the fall, developing an entirely separate salvation theory and a providential view.  Once you believe in the Okamoto theory, you abandon the theory of the Human Fall in the DP.  The content is similar to the criticisms of the Human Fall made by Mr. Sadao Asami.

3Mr. Okamoto’s Criticisms on the Reality of the Church

Mr. Okamoto criticizes the UnificationChurch from the same standpoint as other anti-UC groups, but even more harshly.  Mr. Okamoto’s so-called “Exposition of Completed Testament Principle” is built upon the criticism of the marriage Blessing and blessed families.  He even criticizes True Mother and True Children.  He claims that the original sin is not cleansed through the Blessing by Reverend Moon and his wife, and that blessed families are a “foundation to prepare to receive the Messiah, and are in a pre-salvation position” (One Hundred Proposals, p. 355), degrading their historical value.

This is why it is essential to correct the errors of the Okamoto theory.  It is a problem we cannot ignore.  The three strategies of Mr. Okamoto and his group share the same purpose as other anti-UC groups; to destroy the UnificationChurch.  The Okamoto theory professes that it is based on Reverend Moon’s teachings.  It is hostile to the UnificationChurch founded by Reverend Moon, going so far as to urge blessed families to escape from the “ship inhabited by Satan.” (Note: it refers to the UC.)

They have recently been active in Europe and Hawaii, trying to recruit new blessed families in foreign countries, after facing some difficulties in Japan where the booklet Correcting the Errors is circulating among most church members.

We hope that by studying this booklet and understanding the errors of Mr. Okamoto who belongs to the Woo group, nobody will be victimized by the group.

Along with this booklet, we also recommend the books, Correcting the Errors of the Spiritual Group, Tribal Association and Rev. Sun Myung Moon’s Copyright Part II, both published by Kogensha.

Fourth Israel Study Group: The Okamoto (Woo) Group in Japan, in their own words (2015)

This post comes from a correspondence with the Fourth Israel Study Group, a group linked to Tatsunori Okamoto and potentially to the Woo Group, despite claiming that Okamoto broke with the group. 

Fourth Israel Study Group’s old website https://4ken.jp/, no longer available

The Fourth Israel Group (FIG) is a study group participated by UC members centering on one Japanese brother, Tatsunori Okamoto, who has been properly studying Rev. Moon’s words since over 20 years before. His study has revealed the content (of which some parts are introduced in the official website of FIG) which has never been taught in UC before. Mr. Okamoto tried to convey the content to the leading members at Japan UC; however, they did not want to listen to him at all. On the contrary, in 1994, they excluded Mr. Okamoto from the UC without notice by the reason that he met with Mr. Woo Myung Shik (a Korean), who is said that he is Rev. Moon’s illegitimate son among some members (but UC has denied it and they struck him off).

Mr. Okamoto, who had nowhere to go at that time, had become to belong to Mr. Woo’s home church, namely Woo Group. Mr. Woo advised him to study only True Father’s words. This was the beginning of his proper study of the words.

Through his study of the words for 5 years there, he became to understand how God had been proceeding with the providence, and he made a determination to leave Woo Group as the result of his prayer to ask God what to do for the providence and he left there in 1999. Although Mr. Okamoto has not been relating to Woo Group at all since then, FIG is still regarded as Woo Group by UC, who have given the members the instruction not to meet Mr. Okamoto and FIG spreading the rumor that Mr. Woo is a dubious person.

In the early time of FIG, since UC was not so confused like its current situation, they did not listen to our real intention at all regarding us as Woo Group or a sect. But now, many of members are confused due to the affairs of True Family, looking for the place to belong to and many groups have come out. However, the Headquarters of UC keep spreading a false propaganda against FIG as before.

As you may be aware through the official site of FIG, it is the actual situation of UC that they have not been able to understand True Father’s words and God’s desire in spite that he had been stating important matters because TF had spoken in metaphor or secret code. Consequently we can be aware that such a situation happened to the Jesus’ disciples in his time. We need to sincerely accept the viewpoint again that it is the restoration history through indemnity.
