Claim. A true family is one in which grandparents represent God, parents represent the king and queen, and children inherit kingship — the Three Great Kingships across past, present, and future restored at the family scale.
Elaboration. “The grandparents should conduct themselves as representatives of God, the parents as the president of the world, and the sons and daughters as the children of the king of the heavenly nation … This characterizes the family ideal, and the original family of the love of God, the Creator” (3.2. The qualities of a true family, 216-299, 1991.4.14). The three generations map to time: “the grandfather is the representative of the princes and princesses of the past. Your parents are the representatives of the princes and princesses of all nations currently … The children are the representatives of the future princes and princesses of the entire universe.” Restoration of the Four Great Realms of Heart and Three Great Kingships happens in this family form: “the Kingdom of Heaven is the place for members of a unified royal family that have experienced love as princes and princesses of God’s Kingdom” (ibid, 238-262, 1992.11.22). The implication: the family is a microcosmic monarchy — the structure SMM later codifies as the completed-testament-age sovereignty form.
