The King Solomon Missionary Baptist Church was the backdrop for the Bluegrass State's "We Will Stand" revival meeting designed to promote the family and encourage harmony across religious and racial lines.

The Kentucky experience began with a visit to a radio station with Reverend Charles Elliot, the host pastor. Reverend Elliot has a weekly radio broadcast that reaches about 50,000 people. He testified to the "We Will Stand" tour and the power of God.

"I've had the privilege to be in Father Moon's presence and listen to what he is saying now... to bring people of all races and denominations together."

Reverend Elliot walked with the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and is famous for rallying 100,000 through a march down the main streets of downtown Louisville for equality and justice. He was the first pastor in Kentucky to welcome Minister Louis Farrakhan of the Nation of Islam to his Christian pulpit. Two years ago he welcomed Mother Hak Ja Han Moon to speak at his church.

At the press conference preceding the evening's event 25 religious leaders and civic activists joined together to speak up for the righteous cause.

Dr. Hycel Taylor spoke eloquently.

"How do I know that this is right ? Make no mistake, we are going into this thing with our eyes wide open. We should be wary, and we should critique. One Christian called me and said he had concerns about Father Moon's theology.

"I told him. I have concerns about your theology ! In fact I have concerns about my own theology. However, the Bible tells me that we should judge them by their fruits. I have examined both the theology and the fruits of Father Moon's work closely. "

Rev. Johnson of the Heart of Fire Church preached:

"We just don't know what God has prepared for this great march to build His kingdom. We have not understood Reverend Moon. We didn't know the anointing that was upon him. Now we can see and a Pentecost has come. God has raised up a leader among us to unite the churches and bring a revolution to the Christian world. We see tonight the dream of Jesus being realized. We are all one. Thank God for Father and Mother Moon."

Reverend Johnson has a beautiful congregation of mixed races and was joined by his wife for the evening. As a boy he was involved in a shooting accident that completely blinded him in both eyes. His father told him then not to worry and that he would be healed by Jesus. He went for 7 months with no healing, but never felt fear because he trusted the Lord and his father.

One day they went to a doctor and the doctor told them that the boy would never see again. he heard his dad say, "Oh, no" and fear struck his heart. Daddy doesn't believe that God can heal me and maybe I will be blind forever, he thought. In the darkness of desperation he reached out to God and decided that he would never stop believing in the hope of a miracle. Shortly after that he went to a revival meeting. When the pastor called for a healing for those who were afflicted he went forward and was miraculously healed! His heart became bound forever to the sacrificial service of the Lord.

The Chief of Police of Louisville brought the Police Choir. They sang, in full uniform with pistols in holsters, two upbeat Christian hymns. Reverend Harvey brought his choir from Cincinnati, Ohio and they performed and raised the spirit even higher. Ministers filled the church. Reverend Dennis Lyons, who has stood with Father Moon for 17 years brought 100 Christian leaders.

The church absolutely became spiritual. So many ministers proclaimed their desire to travel on the tour. Immediately the next morning, Rev. Johnson, moved by the spirit traveled to Wisconsin for the next event.

After the video Reverend Elliot invited Father and Mother Moon to the podium together. He then presented them the highest honor that the state of Kentucky gives -- the Kentucky Colonel award.

Father Moon's sermon was warmly received by the now unified congregation.

Never has a preacher stood up and proclaimed that homosexuality and lesbianism is not the model family of God. He was not judging, but affirmed what is right. It is the family message and the expression of true love for all people in this time.

Father Moon asked:

"Which is the most important or has the highest value out of love, life, and lineage?

"Love is always the response. "

Actually, lineage is most important" corrected the preacher from Korea.

The pastors' wives were deeply grateful that Father Moon opened the door to this kind of teaching and preaching on the true sanctity of marriage and the holiness of love, according to comments heard afterwards.

"We're very grateful to Reverend Moon and (his movement) for that," said Minister Jerald Muhammad of the Louisville-area Nation of Islam. "Ninety-nine percent of the problems in our community could be eradicated if we could strengthen our families."
