Changes

Terry: Good evening LinEL. The question I bring to you this week is in the [[past]] years we have studied the [[Urantia Book]] and gained an [[understanding]] of the teachings that are in the Urantia Book. I believe my concern is until we expand this [[knowledge]] to those who do not understand about these things we really haven't succeeded in accomplishing a great deal except for our own [[personal growth]]. That until we take [[action]] to expound these things to those who don't know...I think what I am trying to ask is how do we best build up the [[courage]] that is required to take these things to people who do not know or understand the things of the [[Urantia Book]] without them looking at us [[wondering]] whether we got a few missing bolts and nuts?

LinEL: Terry, thank you for your [[question]]. This gives me an opportunity to [[discuss]] something with you all. The [[Urantia Book]] as you know is an amazing [[book]] which has [[blessed]] you with incredible [[knowledge]] of the [[universe]], the functioning, [[the Father]], [[Michael]]'s sojourn, however, [[our mission]] and at this time, your mission as well, is not particularly to spread the book, although this is [[acceptable]] when you deem the [[time]] right, but to learn something I think you will find sometimes takes even more [[courage]], which is to learn to truly [[love]] everyone you meet. This is the task. This is spreading the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_196#PAPER_196:_THE_FAITH_OF_JESUS religion of Jesus]. This is living the religion of [[Michael]] lived on [[your planet]] where he had no [[Urantia Book]] at hand. This does not mean that when you [[perceive]] a person is ready that you do not offer him what you have come to [[treasure]] so fully. You will learn in time as you have already done to recognize openings in a person's [[mind]] to learn to [[discuss]] preliminary matters which can permit you to assess whether mentioning further is appropriate. Nevertheless, your main task is to [[love]] each other and everyone you meet. I think you will find this sufficient [[challenge]]. I know you will grow to enjoy this very much and find ways to [[harmonize]] your natural [[desire]] to spread the Urantia teachings with it. Thank you Terry for your question. Terry: You're welcome.
