Changes

The divine has made contact with you already. This contact is [[impersonal]], and therein lies the difficulty of personality [[detection]] of the divine presence.

The divine has made contact with you already. This contact is [[impersonal]], and therein lies the difficulty of personality [[detection]] of the divine presence.

 

Herein is the reason while [[Michael]] presents his [[Spirit of Truth]] to all on this world, for his [[personal]] presence greatly aids in bridging the gap between that pure [[Ta|Fragment of God]] and your emerging [[personal]] [[reality]]. What did Michael do when here on earth aside from spending much time with [[the Father]]? He sought to serve and to minister to his fellows. This outreaching nature of Michael is only a [[reflection]] -- though not lessened thereby by being a reflection -- of the Father's [[inherent]] nature to reach out. It is the very [[impulse]] of [[deity]] that has given rise to all of creation and all creatures. Because [[the Father]] seeks a full and complete [[embrace]] of you in oneness He has bestowed this non-personal Fragment of Himself devoid of personality, thereby creating the [[differential]] whereby your [[personality]] may adhere to the divine [[presence]] and [[become]] one. Personality is always distinct. The closer you draw to the God of all, the more you will become like this divine being, the more you will experience [[unity]], but you will remain you, and God will remain God though much, very much will be [[shared]] in common. The oneness is in the [[fusion]] with your [[Divine Fragment]]. If you were to only seek [[stillness]] and reside within experiencing the [[presence]] of God, you would be [[engaged]] in only one pole of the [[battery]] of divine [[energy]]. It would be more or less static just as, if you were to hold one end of a wire insulated from contact with the other end, the energy would not [[flow]]. Yes, you would be in [[touch]]; you would have [[contact]], but the moment you reach out to the other end that lacks, that is in need, that moment the energy flows, current.

So it is with [[service]]. By engaging in [[prayer]], by seeking to minister to others [[physically]], [[psychologically]], and [[spiritually]] you short the power from the divine to the ground. The ground is the arena of need that any [[creature]] has. As [[the Father]] has removed His [[personality]] before giving of His fragment to dwell within you; you, by leaving yourself out of the [[process]], by setting aside self importance, personality recognition, you are acting in the same pattern as the Father had in His bestowal of [[His fragment]] to you. Instead you are allowing the [[bestowal]] of the divine [[energy]] to reach the personality of another. Personalities are [[attractive]]. For the Father to draw you to Himself, He has bridged the gulf with His [[indwelling spirit]]. For you to reach another personality you bridge that gulf through [[unselfish]] service. Contact with the divine is sensed best through the [[flow]] of divine [[energy]]. Be not concerned that you do not have [[visions]] of God standing before you or audible [[words]] of God speaking in your ear. That contact you will have on [[Paradise]], for you will be capable of the recognition of [[His personality]] when you attain that level of development. Today your contact is that transferring of His [[energy]] bestowed on you, resident within you, toward others.

Elyon: It is indicative of your [[conscience]], your own [[sensitivity]] to the higher [[values]] that you hold regarding ministry and [[service]]. They will not beat you up by amplifying that [[sensitivity]]. However, you are now more likely in a subsequent scenario to respond as you wish you had, and they will [[intensify]] that [[feeling]], for they wish to work [[positively]] rather than negatively. As I was saying how the angelically applied impulse may be hard to [[discern]] from your own personally supplied impulse, regardless of either one, always is the [[divine]] within you seeking contact with every [[creature]]. Whether you proceed in one direction or another, [[guided]] or not, [[the Father]] will seek to make contact and uplift His creatures. So you have [[three]] [[mechanisms]] at work, the ever-present drive of God for [[contact]], the variable steerings of [[angels]], and your own [[free will]]. You can trust the Father to be [[steadfast]] in His [[intention]], and you will have difficulty discerning the origin of the [[variables]] that take place throughout your day that are of origin in your own choosing or the actions of [[celestial]] ministers bearing upon your life. We have at times laughed at your attributing of a spiritually [[insightful]] comment to the contact [[reception]] of a teacher when it was your own well composed utterance. Yet your very [[expression]] that it must have been a teacher through you who spoke [[signals]] to us your [[sensitivity]] toward celestial ministry. It is a way of saying, "I am willing to receive", and thereby you do receive. Whether we receive credit that is due or not, or whether you do not give yourself credit that is due, in the end is only a passing [[curiosity]], for the goal is the [[enlightenment]] of the [[truth]]. The goal is greater [[sensitivity]] to God; the goal is ministry and [[service]] to your fellows. This is the [[essence]] of [[Michael]]'s teaching, and it is our guideline as well.

Harold: The [[Urantia movement]] is very grassroots and [[study]] group oriented. Are there plans for centralizing a training [[center]] for teachers of The [[Urantia Book]]? Is this advisable?

Our [[Correcting Time]] mission of [[Michael]] is only an [[intervening]] [[phase]], for we, as you have noted, do not headquarter ourselves through any one of your groups. We [[share]] ourselves freely among you. We likewise are taking a [[grassroots]] approach. It is the upliftment of the [[consciousness]] of [[mankind]] that must proceed before overt [[institutions]] are put into effect. This being said however, I would not dissuade any human beings so [[inspired]] to establish educational centers, spiritual [[Retreat Centers|retreats]]. As you do this you develop the structures and the skills at operating such structures which will be of benefit to the [[Paper 33 - Administration of the Local Universe|higher administrators]] at a later date who will walk among you and reestablish [[Planetary Headquarters|the headquarters]] the world was intended to have. Does this help?

Harold: Yes. I infer that the current [[churches]] will someday be [[unified]], and that is the [[structure]] that will be used. Is that right?

Harold: Yes. I infer that the current [[churches]] will someday be [[unified]], and that is the [[structure]] that will be used. Is that right?

Elyon: To some extent there will be unification. To another extent there will be the falling away of the existing [[structures]] as the new one presents itself. But this new structure will not be [[acceptable]] without having these earlier structures in place that brought the [[evolution]] of the [[understanding]] of a [[Planetary Headquarters|divine headquarters]] on [[this world]]. [[Vatican|The Vatican]] will not become the headquarters nor will [[Mecca]]. These are the human efforts to do what [[Caligastia]] should have done. But the world needs a [[capital]] if it is to belong in normalcy within [[the system]] operations. There must be a place wherein the [[Planetary Administration|administrators of this world]] may conduct business. Today you do not see it, but in the years to come the [[human being]]s will be included in the program. Until then we [[applaud]] your efforts to create such structures, such headquarters, be it your [[churches]], your non-profit [[organizations]].

Machiventa: This is Machiventa.

I have spent much of my time here on [[this world]] acting for [[Michael]] in place of the [[Planetary Prince]], and I can report that I am very pleased with the [[progress]] being made. Though you may look about your world and see much [[chaos]], [[hatred]], and disruption, all seemingly bent on furthering narrow causes and not helping the world as a whole, these are small incidences among the long range [[goals]] of all who serve with me and [[Michael]]. Each one of you who [[diligently]] applies yourself in any small way to the promulgation of [[light]] and the promotion of [[love]] is doing [[service]] for me and for all assigned to the task of reinstating [[Urantia]] into the normal [[circuits]] of [[the system]].
