Unification Church

The Unification Church and its founder, Dr. Sun Myung Moon, have been in the center of controversy because of their recruiting practices, their financial holdings, and their authoritarian style - including arranged, mass marriages. Most controversial in terms of its teachings is Dr. Moon's claim to be a new Messiah who will finish what Jesus left "undone." Is he the Messiah, and is his Divine Principle the third testament of the Bible?
