This is Machiventa Melchizedek. These teachings are to be made known to all the children of the earth. Your planet, Urantia, is about to undergo the most dramatic changes in its human history as the Son of God and brother of man, Christ Michael, prepares to make his re-appearance. Daily life, as you know it, will never be the same. It will be lifted up. Enlightened. The spirit of love will begin to dominate human motivations as the kingdom of heaven descends to the planet in the hearts of all who are willing to embrace its reality. Your institutions will change. Your national boundaries will have not the same meaning as nation after nation enters into shared sovereignty with larger and larger units for commercial and cultural exchange. People will begin to believe in the possibility of peace and universal brotherhood. Fear will diminish. Individuals will see each other as valuable, beloved brothers and sisters, reaching out to those in need with hands of help and comfort and education. The race will finally have its opportunity to begin real-izing its potential. It will be a flowering, a renaissance, on a scale unknown before in the planet's history. The time of correcting will see all these things.

This is [[Machiventa]] [[Melchizedek]]. These teachings are to be made known to all the [[children]] of the [[earth]]. Your [[planet]], [[Urantia]], is about to undergo the most [[dramatic]] changes in its [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_history human history] as the [[Creator Son|Son of God]] and brother of man, [[Christ]] [[Michael]], prepares to make his re-appearance. Daily life, as you know it, will never be the same. It will be lifted up. [[Enlightened]]. The [[spirit]] of [[love]] will begin to [[dominate]] human [[motivations]] as [[the kingdom]] of heaven [[descends]] to [[the planet]] in the [[hearts]] of all who are willing to [[embrace]] its [[reality]]. Your [[institutions]] will [[change]]. Your [[national]] boundaries will have not the same [[meaning]] as nation after nation enters into [[shared]] [[sovereignty]] with larger and larger [[units]] for [[commercial]] and [[cultural]] exchange. People will begin to [[believe]] in the [[possibility]] of [[peace]] and [[universal]] [[brotherhood]]. [[Fear]] will diminish. [[Individuals]] will see each other as valuable, beloved brothers and sisters, reaching out to those in need with hands of help and [[comfort]] and [[education]]. The race will finally have its [[opportunity]] to begin [[Self Realization|real-izing]] its [[potential]]. It will be a flowering, a [[renaissance]], on a [[scale]] [[unknown]] before in [[the planet]]'s [[history]]. The [[Correcting Time|time of correcting]] will see all these things.

Meanwhile, practice the stillness daily. Pray for the coming of the kingdom. Pray for the opening of the hearts and minds of your fellows. Practice loving one another, greeting every brother and sister you meet with a heart full of love and kindness. Be tolerant of those whose belief systems differ from your own. The mental framework of their ideas matters not; judge each by the fruits his beliefs produce. See that truth produces goodness and beauty. Be patient and kind with one another. Do not criticize another's path; you have not the wisdom t do so. Be a light to those who are searching. Lead them gently. Do not offer advice unless invited. Do not judge. Yet be discerning in the acceptance of new ideas yourself. Test them for their quality, for their adherence to your knowledge of the qualities of Godliness. The Spirit of Truth will lead you. Have faith. Do not let your doubts or your inability to comprehend all that is unfolding unsettle you. Take each day as the gift that it is. Expect to see the way that is being laid out for you. Follow the leading of your most sincere heart, the voice of your heavenly guide, the urgings of your angels.

You are children of high destiny. You are beloved and respected. Have courage. Do not fear. Mistakes will be made; it is to be expected. When you see you have been in error, simply let it go and adjust your path accordingly. Ask for guidance. Forgive others who make misjudge-ments in their courses, too. You are beginners, just learning to walk by the light of the spirit. You will stumble, but simply rise up and begin again. It is no matter. Do not take yourself too seriously. Enjoy the adventure. Do not be overawed. Give freely of your praise, to our Father, and to your fellows for the work they do on his behalf. Avoid dogma and doctrine, save the doctrine of the Father's love, and word your messages so they may be acceptable to the ears of those to whom you speak. Let this be a time of joy and gladness. It is significant work we are doing together, but be at ease as you attend to the tasks before you. Let your hearts be filled with certainty and love.
