Answer: This is because the Juche idea is the revolutionary idea that embodies the noble spirit of “believing in the people as in heaven” most thoroughly.
President Kim Il Sung said:
To ‘believe in the people as in heaven’ has been my constant view and motto. The principle of Juche, which calls for drawing on the strength of the masses who are the masters of the revolution and construction, is my political creed. This has been the axiom that has led me to devote my whole life to the people.
There is a noble spirit in “believing in the people as in heaven” that regards man as the most powerful, valuable and almighty being in the world and solves everything by believing in and relying on the power of the people and making everything serve for the people.
It was merely empty talks to serve the people in the past. This was because there was not a scientific revolutionary idea for the people and serving the people can not be realized actually.
Such tragedy of history is ended thanks to the Juche idea.
The Juche idea clarified for the first time in history that the popular masses are the masters and motive forces in the revolution and construction. Therefore, it scientifically clarified that the popular masses are the most powerful and valuable beings in the world.
The Juche idea originally formulated the attitude and stands to regard the people as the masters of the revolution and make everything serve for the people and conduct revolution by believing in and relying on the exhaustible strength of the people. Therefore, it provided scientific guiding principles that enable one to respect and defend the people’s independent rights and interests and to be ever-victorious in the revolutionary struggle by mobilizing their exhaustible strength to the maximum.
Like this, the Juche idea is the revolutionary idea that embodies the noble spirit of “believing in the people as in heaven” most thoroughly and clarifies the scientific way to realize it. Herein lies the important reason why the Juche idea is called the idea of “believing in the people as in heaven”.
