| Question #7: When the [[Magisterial Son]] [[personalizes]] in our [[presence]], are those of us who may be fairly slow in spiritual [[development]] but are indwelt, will we still be able to [[perceive]] your [[divinity]]? Or are we only able to perceive you as within the [[degrees]] of our current [[status]] of [[development]]? | | Question #7: When the [[Magisterial Son]] [[personalizes]] in our [[presence]], are those of us who may be fairly slow in spiritual [[development]] but are indwelt, will we still be able to [[perceive]] your [[divinity]]?

− | Monjoronson: Thank you for this question. I [[desire]] to alleviate some [[apparent]] [[apprehension]]. [[Fear]] not that you cannot [[discern]] by [[spiritual]] [[awareness]]. You are a spiritual [[being]] and you can [[perceive]] in the spiritual realm. Likewise you are a [[mortal]] [[being]] and have all the [[senses]] to perceive in the [[material]] realm so there is nothing you will not be able to perceive. You cannot be left out, you're not blind to the [[reality]] of the situation. I believe your question refers to the [[awareness]] that the more spiritualized an [[individual]] may become, the more spiritual [[perception]] they possess and this is true. But in the scenario you offered, you would lack nothing and have all the [[access]] that you may be able to [[imagine]] about such a barely imaginable [[event]]. Is there more to this question?

| Question #8: Could you please give an example of a [[human]] on [[Urantia]] within whom the [[Spirit of Truth]] is [[functioning]] as a [[spiritual]] [[co-ordinator]] of the [[different]] spirit ministries, and the spirit of the Bestowal Son is present in humans who have no [[Thought Adjuster]] and no [[soul]]? | | Question #8: Could you please give an example of a [[human]] on [[Urantia]] within whom the [[Spirit of Truth]] is [[functioning]] as a [[spiritual]] [[co-ordinator]] of the [[different]] spirit ministries, and the spirit of the Bestowal Son is present in humans who have no [[Thought Adjuster]] and no [[soul]]? |

| I point this out and I decline to endorse [[individuals]] to [[illustrate]] that this is not a far away [[process]]. This is an up close [[personal]] [[process]]. This is not something to be admired and [[adored]] in others, it is to be sought and [[developed]] within you. As I say, you will be known by your fruits, by your lives as a testament. So rather than the pursuit of who out there is being led by what internal [[force]], perhaps more is to be gained by turning that search within and looking for where [[spirit]] [[influence]] may be and going in that direction and in so doing your life begins to [[mimic]] your [[spiritual]] [[state]] and before you know it the fruits are quite [[evident]]. You will know them by their fruits and they you will know you by yours.
