BERTRAM and MURIEL: Greetings little one. It is such a [[pleasure]] to be with you again on this new beginning. May this coming year be a period of [[growth]] in the [[spirit]] for all of [[God’s children]] all around this [[beautiful]] globe we call, [[Urantia]]. Great is the need for [[peace]], for [[harmony]], for [[love]], for [[co-operation]], international [[trust]] and a true spirit of good will among men.

Even we were called to come here to serve you in this way because we were also willing and able, and volunteered to do so. It is our [[pleasure]] to be able to work with you, and we rejoice in your response and in your own willingness to serve in this way, so that together we can accomplish and [[do the will of the Father]] on earth today, at this most critical time in [[Part 3|Urantia’s history]].

This present time is [[heralding]] the beginning of a [[new age]] on [[Urantia]], a great time of [[correction]] for all of [[mankind]]. Watch and you will see. Be forewarned so that you will not be dismayed at what shall transpire over the next year and the years immediately following the year [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2000 2000]!

It would be helpful for her to [[read]] our [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=1999-01-01-Collection,_Bertram_%26_Malcom_2#Session_6 last transmission] regarding [[relationship]], [[human]] and [[divine]]. Your relationship with each other in [[time]] and your speculations of the [[future]], also your daily relationship with your Creator Father [[Michael]] of this [[local universe]] of [[Nebadon]], and your inner relationship with your own [[body]]. (For you, little one, [[contemplate]] how timely this morning's message is with your two television programs last night, the [[Milky Way]] Galaxy and the inner functioning of the human [[body]])

Nothing in all creation is ever [[simple]], nor simple to [[explain]]. Always there will be more to learn, more to teach; more to learn, more to teach, and it will be so throughout your [[Ascension Career|eternal life]].

As long as there is [[life]], He is there within you, your constant [[faithful]] and loving [[guide]] and [[companion]], who, in conjunction with the [[Spirit of Truth]], guides you into all [[truth]] regarding His will for you. And He wills for you a long and [[healthy]] and [[pain]] free life of service and love to all His children. Therefore you have need of a good [[strong]], [[robust]], energy filled, efficient system in which to live and serve and have your [[being]].

In your mortal flesh, you need sufficient [[nourishment]] for all your several cellular systems and [[organisms]]. As your friend so correctly [[explained]], this evening, your mortal physical needs are not being met as efficiently as in decades past due to [[pollution]], depleting [[soil]] conditions, and adulteration of your [[food]] resources. It is presently difficult for you to meet your complete nutritional requirements without [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitamin_supplements supplementation] and indeed, [[divine]] [[intervention]].

MALCOM AND TEACHERS: Little one, good evening. You do indeed, seem more settled than when you last asked for [[direction]] from us. We are most certainly glad that the [http://www.nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Category:Tomas Tomas transcripts] have helped you through this brief period. We know that you are most [[anxious]] to return home once more and resume your [[life]] there.

This period of [[service]] in the fields of [[the Master]] has indeed, been for your [[growth]] and [[soul]] [[maturity]]. The need has been great and the [[pressures]] upon you, the [[responsibility]], weighed heavily upon you. You have dealt with many [[difficulties]] and [[interactions]] of [[relationship]] with your patient. One can only do their best in any situation of life, with its many [[facets]] of [[interaction]] and reaction in relationship to one another.

TARA: I [[awoke]] with this prompting to transmit. What do you wish for me to transmit tonight?
TARA: I awoke with this prompting to transmit. What do you wish for me to transmit tonight?
MALCOM: Yes indeed, little one, yes indeed.
MALCOM: Yes indeed, little one, yes indeed.
We have a lesson here regarding, loving service, confiding trust and courageous loyalty.
We have a lesson here regarding, loving [[service]], confiding [[trust]] and courageous [[loyalty]].
Indeed, did you step out of your [[comfort zone]] in the exercise of loving service in the field.
Much discomfort did you feel at first but now things have settled quite nicely. You did not flee the situation, even when you felt overcome, you did, indeed, call for [[the Father]]’s help and [[strength]]. You see , little one, even in your [[weakest]] moments you were still there, loving [[doing the Father’s will]] just by being who you are and [[quietly]] letting your [[light]] shine, dimly at first, yes, but you [[persevered]], strength was given you [[physically]], [[emotionally]], [[mentally]] and [[spiritually]].
On all levels does [[the Father]] send His help to you all when you call out to Him, by and through His [[Thought Adjuster]] and His loyal [[ministering angels]], [[guides]], and [[teachers]].
We [[observe]] [[growth]] in God’s children, when they go through their [[adversities]], even in their [[trials]] of administering loving [[service]]. Difficulties always arise when there are [[mortals]] in [[relationship]] of any kind. Learn to always [[expect]] this and [[appreciate]] that there are teaching services for you in your earthly classrooms.
I am not going to keep you long this evening. Tomorrow will be your day off, your break from constant [[duty]] and I know you are looking forward to your day with your beloved friend.
It delights us to see your delight at the [[growth]] of your sister and her [[interactions]] with friends and loved ones, spreading [[seeds]] of [[truth]]. Often times the teacher does not see their own [[growth]] as a student, but all of God’s children [[experience]] this growth experience of student, teacher; learning, teaching as you go, as you pass by, as you encounter other [[hungry]] [[souls]] searching and [[thirsting]] after right [[knowledge]] and [[truth]].
Your teaching and your ministering go out in different forms, silently, verbally, even with a touch, a smile, at the right moment. All actions reverberate outwardly even when we are not aware of it. Your unintentional, unaware counseling of your friend Val, planted a seed, that was acted upon and you had unknowingly sent a gift of love to folks 200 miles away, though they shall never know of it directly. Do you understand?

Do you [[understand]]?
In this, learn the lesson, that you are, indeed, [[teachers]] in [[training]], teachers in [[actuality]], already impacting and changing the [[destiny]] of others by the [[seeds]] you plant day by day as you pass by. Indeed, did you plant a seed in the [[mind]] of your friend to change a [[course]] of [[action]], that also has been of great benefit to him as well and will continue to [[grow]].
Well done, little one, indeed have you exercised the lessons of loving [[service]], confiding [[trust]], and [[loyalty]] in your [[perseverance]] and [[steadfastness]] in the truths of [[Christ Michael]] spread abroad by all his servants.
Rest now, little one, and be at [[peace]], Malcom.

===='''''[[Teaching Mission]]'''''====
March 20, 1999
March 20, 1999
TARA: Please help me to [[understand]] the [[validity]] of the “[[Teaching Mission]].” Apparently there are some who feel this mission is not valid and that we are really only on [[ego]] trips of self [[delusion]]. I don’t feel I’m being egotistical or led astray. I only want the [[truth]] and only the truth. I am [[sincere]] in my involvement with the mission as a [[transmitter]]. I have come to [[trust]] in the mission and its [[purposes]] and I do realize that there is the danger of human [[error]] and [[contamination]] of the [[transcripts]], even our [[UB|beloved book]] was not above error we were told.
Please [[clarify]] for me. Am I truly receiving or is it only coming from my deep [[mind]] in remembering what I have [[read]] in the [[Urantia Book]]?
Please clarify for me. Am I truly receiving or is it only coming from my deep mind in remembering what I have read in the Urantia Book?
BERTRAM: Little one, have we not so often told you not to [[doubt]]? We are indeed in [[communication]] with you. You need not [[fear]] or be disturbed by what you may [[read]] which is in [[opposition]] to the work of this [[Teaching Mission]].
There will always be misunderstandings between, in and among, any [[organization]] of men even when the [[desire]] is of the [[purest]] [[intent]]. Each of you are [[individuals]], your teachers are individuals, and each [[express]] themselves in many [[diverse]] ways. We endeavour to gently and [[wisely]] guide you into all truth and in accordance with the [[Urantia Book]] revelations. We do not intend to usurp, or rewrite, or add to the Fifth Epochal Revelation given by divine [[mandate]] for [[Urantia]] for this new dispensation.
Human nature, being what it is in its evolving, is prone to [[error]] in [[understanding]], [[perception]] and [[motives]], especially when the [[ego]] becomes inflated. This is why we stress the [[attitudes]] of [[humbleness]], and [[sincerity]] and child-likeness in our [[transmitter]]/receivers. Only with this [[trusting]] and [[simple]] and [[selfless]], loving attitude can we transmit our lessons to you as clearly and as [[purely]] as possible.
There will no [[doubt]] be errors made, for we are not completed in our [[perfection]] [[process]], as you well know. It is through your [[faith]], our faith, that we all [[progress]] together step by step towards [[Paradise]] in our [[Ascension Career|ascension journey]] home.
[[This Mission]] is so very new on [[Urantia]], and not understood fully as of this [[moment]] in time on you beloved planet home. Let not this [[discourage]] you, for truly you are all [[pioneers]], opening the way for the coming era of [[Light and Life]] on [[Urantia]]. It is beginning among the common [[folk]] first, as has always been the case in ages [[past]], in other eras of [[the Father]]’s work on this planet. Those in [[power]] and [[authority]] worldwide will yet come up against you who labour in the fields of [[the Master]].
We would only ask of you to consider the “[[fruits of the spirit]]” displayed by [[this Mission]]:
Are lives being changed for the better?
Are lives being [[changed]] for the better?
Are lives enriched physically, mentally, spiritually?
Are lives enriched [[physically]], [[mentally]], [[spiritually]]?
Is brotherhood enhanced?
Is [[brotherhood]] enhanced?
Is the Fatherhood of God made more real?

Is faith enhanced and strengthened?
Is [[faith]] enhanced and strengthened?
Is the morontia life, indeed eternal life, made more real, understandable, desired and believed attainable?
Is the [[morontia life]], indeed [[eternal life]], made more real, understandable, [[desired]] and believed [[attainable]]?
Is the destiny of Paradise and the finding of the Father made more real to you?
Is the [[destiny]] of [[Paradise]] and the finding of [[the Father]] made more real to you?
Does the Mission teach the religion of Jesus as He taught and lived it?
Does [[the Mission]] teach the religion of [[Jesus]] as He taught and lived it?
Are not all encouraged to seek the Father daily in the stillness?
Are not all [[encouraged]] to seek the Father daily in the [[stillness]]?
Do we not teach the [[supreme]] importance of the [[free will]] of all [[mankind]] and the supreme authority of the will of God, [[revealed]] to you through your [[Thought Adjusters]] and the [[Spirit of Truth]]?
Think on these things:
Think on these things:
Do the lessons of [[the teachers]] [[inspire]] you to live better and [[change]] to [[become]] more [[God-like]], more loving towards all you meet no matter who they are?
Do the lessons ring true within [[your soul]]?
Do the lessons ring true within your soul?
Truly you must [[judge]] for yourself to [[accept]] or [[reject]] your calling into this [[service]].
Your [[faithfulness]], [[steadfastness]], [[dedication]] to [[the mission]] must be your own [[free will]] choice. Your [[faithfulness]], [[dedication]] and [[devotion]] to [[Christ Michael]] is above all your first [[duty]], your first love fulfilment.
The [[divine]] [[purpose]], the divine plan, is now and ever set in [[motion]] for the [[birth]], development and actualization of your evolving [[immortal soul]], its care and nourishment and [[growth]] here and through all [[eternity]]. Under Christ [[Michael]] and [[Machiventa]] Melchizedek and [[your teachers]], this is indeed our highest [[purpose]] in this [[Teaching Mission]].
Little one, rest [[assured]], we are here only for your highest [[good]]. There are certainly other avenues and [[paths]] open and available to you for your [[free will]] choosing. Never do we [[coerce]] or desire to compel any of Gods children to walk this [[path]] home. You must each choose what rings true within your own [[soul]] and what you feel best nourishes you and enhances your personal [[soul growth]].
Accomplishing your circles of attainment here is the important thing in all your growth, no matter how you accomplish that goal, even if it is accomplished unconsciously. All in all, when all is said and done, and the mortal seeker has completed his sojourn in this flesh of mortal habitation, when natural death arrives, as it will to each and everyone of you, then shall all come to fruitation and clarity. The progression made is always the responsibility of each individual personality by the choices made during his earthly life. And all die at differing degrees of attainment. Where there is even the slightest flicker of hope, of faith, of desire on the part of the evolving soul, survival is assured. They each continue onward, on the mansion worlds and so continue on in their ascension careers homeward.
Accomplishing your [[Seven Psychic Circles|circles of attainment]] here is the important thing in all your [[growth]], no matter how you accomplish that goal, even if it is accomplished unconsciously.

They each continue onward, on the [[mansion worlds]] and so continue on in their [[ascension career]]s homeward.
May this lesson tonight put your mind at rest and [[inspire]] you to go forward in your calling to [[service]] in this [[Teaching Mission]].
I am and ever remain your teacher, Bertram.

===='''''[[Reincarnation]]'''''====
March 26, 1999
March 26, 1999
TARA: My teachers, are there any [[messages]] this evening? I’m not just sure what is [[expected]] from me. I am often asked [[questions]] to ask you, some personal and I‘m not sure as to whether that is proper for me to always ask you to answer their requests. This is not a psychic service we are conducting here, but some times there are questions that do have [[spiritual]] [[questing]] in them and lessons received could be of benefit to these searchers of [[truth]]. As for example the question concerning [[reincarnation]], if it is not valid and not a part of [[the Father]]’s plan for us, just what is occurring to people when they believe they have been regressed, and what of small children who seem to be born with extremely developed [[talents]] almost from [[birth]]? Please answer if appropriate please. Thank you.
MALCOM: First, little one, may you recall that you too had this [[experience]] of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Past_life_regression regression]. How did it seem to you?
MALCOM: First, little one, may you recall that you too had this experience of regression. How did it seem to you?
TARA: I seem to be in [[visioning]] what I called a past life in [[Atlantis]]. It seemed very vivid and real, but I had no real [[proof]] that is was a real recall or only a vivid [[imagining]] from my own [[mind]]. I questioned it at the time. It seemed like such an [[idyllic]] life that I would like to have lived. There was such colourful, vivid detail, [[peace]] and tranquility. I was a teacher in the [[healing]] arts, young and [[married]] with [[family]], and we were [[happy]] and [[prosperous]]. Was it a deep seated longing within my own [[soul]], Malcom?
MALCOM: Yes, indeed? For you it was [[peace]], [[beauty]] and [[goodness]], possibly your [[truth]] of being. For others it may be a yearning for a seat of [[power]], a great [[personality]], position, [[fame]] and [[wealth]], or religious encounter or on the [[darker]] side, [[murder]], [[death]], mayhem etc. Whatever one may feel they deserve or long to acquire in this life or the next. Certainly the over working of very [[creative]] [[imaginations]]. It can appear to be so all consuming and real, coming from many areas of the [[subconscious]] mind and most certainly from your [[genetic]] [[memory]] patterns. This is only now beginning to be understood.
The question of the extremely [[gifted]] child? Did you not consider that they may possess a very experienced [[Thought Adjuster]] and that this child has a very special [[destiny]]? Combined with his genetic [[memory]] and possibly a very high [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iq IQ] and an extremely advanced and experienced [[Adjuster]], with a fast advancing [[personality]] and [[soul]] quality, such a child would most certainly astound the world with his or her [[talents]] and abilities far above the [[average]].
There could be many [[explanations]] for so called past [[memory]] including self [[delusion]] by the most gullible, to out right lying and [[fraud]] of [[deception]] for [[profit]] or gain because God’s lonely, desperately searching children, want answers to life; want [[purpose]] and reason for what they see and [[experience]], both the [[justice]] and the injustice. Why is there so much [[poverty]] and [[suffering]]?
Why do some live in such [[prosperity]] and splendour, undeserved? [[Reincarnation]] appears on the surface to answer these questions with its [[justice]] of [[karma]], and a so called, “balancing of the scales.”
But you who have come to know and to [[understand]] the [[Fifth Epochal Revelation]] and the [[knowledge]] of [[the Father]]’s plan of [[ascension]] are most [[blessed]].
The Father’s Plan is one of [[progression]], not regression. [[The Father]], in [[love]], bestows [[forgiveness]] for mistakes made in [[ignorance]] in your searching, not punishment. He wills that you progress ever forward to Him, where He awaits to [[embrace]] you. He does not [[desire]] to [[delay]] or retard your forward [[journey]] [[home]]. He has already [[prepared]] for you your spheres of [[learning]], your classrooms in which to expand your [[knowledge]] and growth in [[soul]] and [[spirit]]. When you [[graduate]] from your present class on earth at mortal [[death]], you will graduate to the next level of [[morontia]] and spiritual advancement. There is absolutely no need to regress backward.
In [[truth]], this is a [[deception]] carried over from the [[Lucifer Rebellion]], for indeed, if he could keep you [[focused]] here, you would not think to consider what your true [[ascension]] [[destiny]] would be. Your escape of [[death]], he had no [[control]] over and the truth would be known [[eventually]], but if he could so [[deceive]] you, that you would so wholeheartedly deny the Father and lose your [[hope]] of [[salvation]] into eternal life, that was his aim and [[purpose]]. He had so deceived and corrupted himself and desired your [[loyalty]] to him is like complete [[deception]]. But [[our Father]] was long suffering and extended to [[Lucifer]] [[love]] and time to [[repent]], but he would not. As long as there is the slightest [[hope]] the Father will not deny eternal life to any precious son.
Now, that you have been so [[blessed]] to [[understand]] the truth in the [[light]] of your true [[destiny]], you can lay the question of [[reincarnation]] to rest, in regards to you own life. But do not sit in [[judgment]] of your brother who still [[embraces]] this [[concept]]. For him it is his truth for now, just as it was for you not so long ago, and have you not seen how readily you let it go when the higher [[truth]] of God’s plan was presented to you. The theory of [[reincarnation]] did teach you some valid truths, such as
-- you did go somewhere between your “lives.”
-- you did go somewhere between your “lives.”
-- someone, somewhere was indeed keeping track of you and was meting out justice.
-- someone, somewhere was indeed keeping track of you and was meting out [[justice]].
-- you were trying to get your life right by learning to live [[righteously]]
-- you were being taught there were [[standards]] to live and [[prosper]] by or suffer the consequences; -- you were being taught there was a [[higher power]] in [[control]] of things somewhere, and [[eventually]] you would be able to go on and not come back, even if it were to merge into nothing.
Recall now the lesson “the [[truth]] shall set you [[free]].” Indeed you have been set free from these misconceptions of [[evolutionary religion]]. As they have and are still serving [[mankind]] in his [[quest]] for truth, these [[theories]] have had their place, but now your are free to go forward in your [[knowledge]] of the truths of [[the Master]], into greater and deeper [[understanding]] of your [[destiny]] of eternal life in the [[kingdom of God]], in the very family of God for all [[eternity]]!
You are eternally [[free]] to [[explore]] and to [[grow]] and to expand in [[knowledge]] and [[experience]] and in [[understanding]] of all things. Nothing is barred from you. Your whole life and your [[destiny]] is before you, to [[become]] a glorious Son of God, a loyal faithful finaliter in the [[Corps of Finality]].
Blessed indeed are all those who have ears to hear, and yes, eyes to see what the Father has prepared for those who love Him and will to do His will, and choose to be a part of the destiny He has planned beginning here and stretching through Nebadonia, through Orvonton, through the Havona, into your Paradise home and outward into the outer space levels. Why should you want to just play yo-yo in Monmatia, on Urantia, when the universal Father is awaiting you?

May this lesson [[awaken]] a deeper sense of your [[destiny]] and answer somewhat your request.
We will respond to any questions asked in [[sincere]] seeking and for the furtherance of [[soul growth]].
I ever remain your teacher and friend, Malcom.

TARA: Is there a message today?
TARA: Is there a message today?
MALCOM: Little one, we realize that you have been [[pondering]] the implications of the present [[crisis]] in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serbo-Croatian_War Kosovo]. What will be the implications of this new war upon [[your planet]] as mighty world [[powers]] become involved in this [[civil war]]?
[[Urantia]] is indeed coming into a period of grave [[consequences]] at the end of this present age. This is a powerful time of [[correction]] for all nations. You well remember that [[the Master]] warned you of this present time in which you are now living. Take [[comfort]] that it is indeed not the [[end of the world]], but it may seem so to those so terribly affected. We only ask that you stay strong and grounded in the [[truth]] you now [[embrace]], for your brothers and sisters are going to need the loving service that [[Michael]]’s faithful faithers shall bring to his beloved planet in the times to come..

We only ask that you stay strong and grounded in the truth you now embrace, for your brothers and sisters are going to need the loving service that Michael’s faithful faithers shall bring to his beloved planet in the times to come..
It is indeed a [[difficult]] time to be born upon your planet [[home]] of [[Urantia]] at the end of this last thousand year period. But rest [[assured]], a [[new age]] is [[dawning]] upon your beautiful planet.
It may indeed take the next thousand years to bring in a true [[essence]] of [[light and life]] among your nations and into the [[hearts]] of all your brothers and sisters.
We are here to [[assist]] and guide you into a deeper and more fuller [[understanding]] of the true religion of [[Christ Michael]] as he lived it. This we do so that you will be [[prepared]] to be His “[[way showers]]” to true [[peace]] and [[prosperity]] during the dire days and years ahead. Indeed you are [[pioneers]] leading into that [[new age]] just ahead of you.
The world will indeed [[suffer]] in the times ahead and it may indeed come near to you also.
Be ever [[faithful]] and true to your [[calling]] into His [[service]] of [[love]] to all your brothers and sisters. Help and serve in any way you can, especially in [[prayer]] for those who are directly affected and suffering in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serbo-Croatian_War this war].
Continue now to be at peace and fear not. Be strengthened from within as you draw closer to the Father in the stillness. Here you will find your peace and your rest from the trials without. The Father enfolds you in His love. He cares for you, each beloved child of His.

TARA: Lorne has asked me to request a response from you for a higher [[perspective]] regarding the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yugoslav_Wars#War_crimes Kosovo/Yugoslavian atrocities] now occurring. What should be our response to this situation and how can we be of benefit to these our brothers and sisters [[suffering]] there?
BERTRAM: It is Bertram here this evening. I will follow up on what Malcom has already [[expressed]] to you some days ago. This is indeed a [[crisis]] of grave proportions for not only the unfortunates ones caught up in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yugoslav_Wars this war], but for all who look on. The [[hosts of heaven]] are indeed aware of this growing proliferation of [[evil]] upon [[your planet]]. The suffering is grave and thousands are perishing.

This is indeed a crisis of grave proportions for not only the unfortunates ones caught up in this war, but for all who look on. The hosts of heaven are indeed aware of this growing proliferation of evil upon your planet. The suffering is grave and thousands are perishing.
What will it take to lift your beautiful planet above and out of the mire of hate and war, evil and rebellion?
What can you, who are the very children of the living God, do? Yes, of course, [[pray]].
Do you not [[believe]] that [[the Father]] would surely here your [[voice]] and your [[petition]] for your brothers and sisters suffering so? The Father loves each and everyone of you. He will surely [[act]] on behalf of your brethren via your requests. He will answer as it will benefit all affected, to the best [[ultimate]] outcome for all His children. Truly realize the [[power]] of your single request, of your joint requests of your study [[group]], of the combined requests of those in your [[churches]], of those in your [[communities]], and throughout your [[nations]], throughout [[your world]].
Will this coming time of dire [[correction]] be a [[turning point]] for all nations?
What will it take for your world to be so filled-up with [[violence]], that you will do something about it?
When will you eradicate [[violence]] from even your [[homes]]? From your T.V. programs, from your video games, from the [[movies]] you watch, from within your very [[relationships]]?
When will [[your world]] begin to so desire [[peace]] and make it such a [[reality]], that [[war]] will be no more than a [[memory]] in your [[ancient]] texts?
What will it take to lift your [[beautiful]] planet above and out of the mire of [[hate]] and [[war]], [[evil]] and [[rebellion]]?
This is, indeed a time of dire [[correction]]!
What will transpire will be for the [[ultimate]] benefit of all. [[Urantia]] will indeed, go through a [[trial]] of cleansing and [[renewal]] before the age of [[light and life]] finds fulfilment here.
In your [[prayer]], pray that [[the Father]]’s will will be done. Even your Lord and Master, [[Michael]], allowed the will of the Father to be done, even in the [[violence]] of his own [[death]] at the hands of evil men. The ultimate [[good]] was transpiring, though hard to [[understand]] and [[conceive]] in the [[mind]] of [[mortal]] men. So we would [[admonish]] you again in your [[prayers]], pray that the Father’s will be done. And then [[trust]] that, that is what is transpiring. Lessons do indeed need to be learned even nationally and globally.
Be [[courageously]] [[loyal]] to your Father [[Michael]], to the [[Universal Father]], to the [[Mother Spirit]], to the [[Magisterial Son|merciful Paradise Son]].(?) [[Trust]] in their eternal [[love]] and [[overcare]] of [[your planet]] home.
A [[new age]], a new dispensation is about to come upon you. You are indeed going to go through the [[birth]] pangs of its deliverance to you.
Now we would encourage you to do all you can to alleviate the suffering of those in need, coming out of this adversity. What can you give by way of aid, clothing, food to those who come to your nation for refuge? Remember your calling to loving service. Share what you have with these, your brethren in need. Continue to offer your prayers, do what you can to supply their needs.

[[Pray]] that this war will soon come to an end and these [[families]] can be rejoined once more. Indeed, pray for[[ the Father]]’s [[intervention]], for He hears your prayers and will answer according to His will. Then [[confidently]] [[trust]] and leave the outworking in His hands. All the world is watching, the [[celestial hosts]] are watching and will indeed act when commissioned to do so.
I will depart now, [[confident]] you will all be [[guided]] into beseeching [[prayer]], enduring [[faith]], and [[actions]] of loving [[service]].
Your guide and teacher, Bertram.

TARA: Would Malcom please come to answer in response to a [[friend]]? I am ready to send her earlier transcripts as requested, and she has asked for some [[direction]] in her life from a higher [[perspective]]. If this is appropriate, please answer. Thank you.
MALCOM: First, little one, it is so good to be with you once more on these lines of [[communication]]. You have not been well these last few days and as yet still not up to par We will bear with you that the clearest possible transmission will be possible.
MALCOM: First, little one, it is so good to be with you once more on these lines of communication. You have not been well these last few days and as yet still not up to par We will bear with you that the clearest possible transmission will be possible.
We are certainly [[aware]] of the [[intense]] [[struggles]] of your sister who is coming into a [[knowledge]] of the [[truth]]. Though she may not be totally aware, we are here to [[guide]] and help her in her daily walk of life. If she would but call on us; we are here.
[[Life]] has been so very [[difficult]] for this little one. She longs for [[peace]] and [[understanding]] to [[quiet]] her [[anxieties]] of life’s struggle. She has supreme [[faith]] and is also a searcher of [[truth]]. She will do well as she comes into a deeper [[understanding]] of the plan of the Father for her and all His children coming into the [[light]] of His divine truths. We would wholeheartedly recommend that she too read the ''Fifth Epochal Revelation'', as recorded in the [[Urantia Book]]. The life changing [[quality]] of this [[revelation]], sent by [[Christ Michael]] Himself, will surely speak to her [[soul]] and [[heart]] and redirect her life into the [[peace]] and tranquillity she so desires and seeks.
Do all that you can to [[assist]] her, but her [[choices]] are ever hers. The [[quest]] and her own religious [[experience]] are hers to [[receive]] and enjoy, and to evolve into deeper [[understanding]] as she wills to direct herself. Do you both understand this [[admonition]]?
There are many [[paths]] to [[the Father]] and He honours them all. First and foremost, all will come to the same [[realization]] of the [[Fatherhood of God]] and the Brotherhood of all [[mankind]].
Every mortal [[being]] has before them the ever eternal [[quest]] of finding [[the Father]]. Some [[discover]] sooner than others that the Father actually dwells within them in the spirit fragments of the Father, their own [[Thought Adjuster]]s. Most do not now realize that they do indeed have this [[divine]] [[presence]] within them to aid them in their own [[soul development]]. Since the day of [[Pentecost]] every mortal has the [[Spirit of Truth]] within also, and if one allows it, this spirit [[power]] within each child of God will assist in their eternal [[quest]] of [[truth]].
There is indeed a divine [[plan]] already in place and functioning throughout the [[entire universe]].
It is a friendly [[universe]] and beyond this [[mortal]] realm of nativity, you will all [[progress]] onward being taught and guided by [[the Master]]’s qualified and proven teachers.
As you now realize [[the Circuits|the spiritual circuits]] are now being reopened and [[Urantia]] is being raised to its proper place in the [[universal]] [[family]] of [[inhabitable planets]]. Yours is a most [[beautiful]] world and most [[blessed]].
Did not you sovereign [[Christ Michael]] choose [[Urantia]] for [[His Seventh Bestowal]] experience? Throughout [[Nebadon]] you are known as the “[[world of the cross]].” Here did [[Michael]] express such divine [[love]] and [[mercy]] upon your world, but also this same love and mercy to all [[the worlds]] of His universe in this area of [[time and space]].
These [[concepts]] may be quite new to your friend, but if she will bear with the new [[knowledge]] now coming into her sphere of [[understanding]], she will surely experience all the [[joy]] and [[peace]] she is seeking now in this [[life]] and most assuredly in the next.
Truly is the [[Urantia Book]] generations ahead of its time, and will one day be a treasured [[source]] of [[knowledge]] from your Creator ever to be presented or found on this [[confused]] and [[darkened]] and sin laden world. Never has [[Urantia]] needed this knowledge as now and in the years just ahead.
Do not think lightly of the [[privilege]] given you today, to be in possession of this [[knowledge]] now in these crucial times. We are indeed calling workers into the [[harvest]] fields of [[the Master]] to lead the way into the knowledge of [[peace]] and [[understanding]] for your suffering planet. But first it must begin within your own [[hearts]] and [[minds]] and then you can reach back and help others to understand also, and one by one, the world will be changed.
We would welcome this little one into the family of God, into the very [[Kingdom of Heaven]], and as a beloved child of God [[the Father]], into the Cosmic [[Brotherhood]] of God. With the now expanded knowledge that the [[UB|Fifth Revelation]] brings to this world, all will someday come into the knowledge of the Kingdom of God, even now here on [[Urantia]], administered by His [[celestial hosts]], His [[Melchizedeks|Melchizedek teachers]], the [[Teacher Corps|Mission Teaching staff]]; all here to lead your world into the beginning age of [[life and light]], an age of [[peace]] and [[prosperity]], free of the [[devastation]] and suffering of [[war]] that you are now seeing before your eyes once more.
[[Pray]] for the deliverance of your brothers and sisters suffering in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yugoslav_Wars#Kosovo_War_.281998.E2.80.931999.29 this war], and assist in any way that you can. Respond to the call for aid. Remember [[the Master]]’s words, “if you do this to the least of your brethren you have done it unto me.” ([[155:3|155:3.4]]) Your loving [[service]] is truly needed now.
I will depart now. The Masters’ peace I leave with you all, and may you find rest for your souls and strength to carry on as a valiant children in the one and only universal family of God of which we are all a part, ever rejoicing that it is so.

TARA: I feel that you may have a message for me tonight.
TARA: I feel that you may have a message for me tonight.
BERTRAM and MALCOM: Yes, little one, it is Bertram and Malcom here. We have need of you to bring a message to your Study Group this Friday night. We know you are all concerned about what is transpiring in the countries of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yugoslav_Wars Kosovo, Albania and Yugoslavia].
We want you to be [[aware]] but not unduly alarmed or fearful at what is happening, what will transpire over the days and weeks ahead.
We want you to be aware but not unduly alarmed or fearful at what is happening, what will transpire over the days and weeks ahead.
It is very important and we [[admonish]] you to [[pray]] [[earnestly]] for all those affected, for your brothers and sisters there, for their [[families]] and little ones, forced to flee from their [[homes]] to safety and [[asylum]]. Thousands are suffering and dying and the effects of this [[experience]] will go on in their lives for many years into the [[future]].
Be assured [[Michael]] and [[His Hosts]] are well aware of every aspect of this situation. There may well be a grave [[eruption]] of [[evil]] and great destruction, but also a mighty rise in spirit of [[mankind]] to help their brothers and sisters from every corner of the globe.
Truly the forces of [[darkness]] and the forces of [[light]] are in a great [[struggle]] as the world watches on via the news medias, satellite systems, the [[Internet]], T.V. and [[radio]] coverage. The world is watching and sees much; Michael and His Hosts see [[everything]], even into the [[hearts]] and [[minds]] of all.
Why does He not [[intervene]]? Yes, He could and most certainly will in ways you will not see or [[understand]], but will only [[realize]] in hindsight. Bear in mind always, that it has always been the [[supreme]] [[mandate]] of the [[Universal Father]] that the will of man will not be violated. [[Mankind]] individually, nationally and globally have this [[divine]] [[right]]. By your [[freewill]] choices you create your world, both it’s sufferings and it’s [[blessings]]. If you can create [[chaos]] and [[confusion]], you can also create [[peace]] and [[harmony]] by your freewill choices, personally and globally. Until mankind learns that warring against his [[neighbour]] will never bring [[peace]], you will always have these [[atrocities]] to cope with.
How severe and how horrendous will this lesson be, will depend on your global [[community]]. What did you learn from the last [[World War II|two great wars]], then fought to “[[World War I|end all wars]].” Yet your world has continually been fraught with wars and rumours of wars.
[[Pray]] that the human [[spirit]] has truly risen sufficiently above the [[animal nature]] of your [[origin]].
Pray that the [[Spirit of Truth]] and love will rise up and prevail in the [[hearts]] of men worldwide. That the [[beast]]ly nature of these waring [[leaders]] will be subdued, hopefully into ways of [[peace]], and civil [[action]], at a table of peace and not on an escalated field of carnage and war. The [[fires]] have been lit, but will the waters of [[love]] and [[service]] poured out, quench this escalating [[conflict]] before it becomes a blazing inferno?
Remember well that [[Urantia]] is going through a [[Correcting Time]]. Many conditions must be changed and overcome in many, many nations. [[Progress]] is being made, evolving slowly, but surely.
He demonstrated to us by His life and how He lived it, our hope of salvation, and His Father’s love for all His children in time and space.
Never forget that [[Michael]] is very much in charge of the working out of His Plan on His beloved [[Urantia]]. He too [[suffered]] and submitted His own life into the hands of evil men whose minds were [[darkened]] in their [[ignorance]] of His ways and teachings. He [[demonstrated]] to us the power of His [[love]] and the [[hope]] of our own [[resurrection]], that this life is not all there is.
He [[demonstrated]] to us by [[Part 4|His life]] and how He lived it, our hope of [[salvation]], and His Father’s love for all His children in [[time and space]].
Like a wise a loving Father, He is allowing you to learn your lessons in this present classroom.
Like a wise a loving Father, He is allowing you to learn your lessons in this present classroom.
[[Pray]] that the lessons learned will lead your world into a [[new age]], into a new millennium of evolving [[peace]], [[security]] and [[prosperity]] for the [[generations]] yet to be born on your beautiful world. These lessons will most certainly be hard to bear, but know that [[Ta|the spirit of the Father]] is always there within you, to [[guide]] and teach and lead you into the ways of [[peace]] through the use of your [[free will]] choices in accordance with His will.
It is not His will that any, not a single one of His little ones, should suffer as they are now in this [[conflict]]. He loves each and everyone of you, more than you can ever know.
It is not His will that any, not a single one of His little ones, should suffer as they are now in this conflict. He loves each and everyone of you, more than you can ever know.
He has a plan for you whereby you can achieve ultimate perfection, “to become perfect as He is perfect,” but that plan is a progressive, evolving plan and along the way you will make mistakes in your choices and sometimes you will suffer from those freewill choices, but the Father is ever there to take you in His arms and enfold you, and forgive you, and love you and give you peace.

By [[faith]] in Him, and in the good news of [[His kingdom]], do you grow strong in Him, and grow up into spirit [[adulthood]].
So have [[faith]] in His [[purpose]] and plan for you and for all of [[humankind]] throughout all His Universal Kingdoms of [[time and space]]. In time, as all your brothers and sisters join with you world wide, in freewill efforts towards [[peace]] and [[love]] for one another, then will you have the beginnings of [[universal]] [[peace]] and at long last the age of [[light and life]] will be ushered in.
[[Rest]] in this [[assurance]] and you will not [[panic]] or be overly concerned in the weeks ahead, but [[prepared]] to be sources of [[strength]] and [[support]], and [[love]] to your own [[families]] and [[communities]].
We will bid you farewell for now. [[Michael]] sends His [[blessing]] of [[peace]] upon you all.
Your friend and teachers, Malcom and Bertram.

TARA: This is the day of our next [[UB|Urantia study group]] meeting. Is there a further message this [[morning]]?
MALCOM: Little one, I would like to comment further on the [[concept]] of the deep mind, but in the [[context]] of the practice of [[stillness]]. We would like you to grasp the importance of seeking [[the Father]] in the [[quietness]] of your mind, for in this place, set apart from the [[busyness]] of life, are you able to have deep and loving [[communion]] with Him, who has created you, loves you and wills that you [[become]] like Him.
MALCOM: Little one, I would like to comment further on the concept of the deep mind, but in the context of the practice of stillness. We would like you to grasp the importance of seeking the Father in the quietness of your mind, for in this place, set apart from the busyness of life, are you able to have deep and loving communion with Him, who has created you, loves you and wills that you become like Him.
He has provided for you a [[Ta|spirit fragment]] of Himself and as you [[progress]] and grow spiritually and [[develop]] that immortal, evolving [[essence]] of yourself, you will be able to more clearly commune with this fragment spirit essence of [[the Father]] within. Here, He can [[adjust]] your [[thoughts]] and it’s patterns so that you can be in greater [[harmony]] with His will for you. But only as you will and as you seek this divine [[connection]], will you be so encircuited.
Why is this important? Because it is as He has [[designed]] you and created you, to evolve to this [[degree]] of [[reception]] of His plans and [[purposes]] for you. Now it is possible for all His children to [[understand]] and [[perceive]] more clearly His divine will.
You also have within you the power of the [[Spirit of Truth]] sent by your Creator/Father [[Michael]] to assist, [[guide]], and teach you. All you need do is ask, knock as it were, and it shall be opened unto you.
So we admonish you to become fruitful. Stay connected to the source of your power for growth in the spirit. This is your calling and your service for the Father: to shine forth, showing a countenance of good cheer, expressing love and devotion and right action in your life, in all your serving, in all your relationships and interactions out in the fields among the “sheep.”
So seek and ask in those times you set aside to be still and to pray and to ask and to [[listen]].
The Fathers hear you and do surely answer you according to what is best for you and for all their children, like any loving, kind and [[generous]] and [[caring]] [[parent]]. The [[Holy Spirit]] is also here to [[comfort]], [[guide]] and [[support]] you in your daily walk with [[the Father]].
Here, in these quiet times in the [[stillness]], is the quality time you spend with [[the Father]].
A time for rest and [[comfort]] and [[renewing]] of your “spiritual batteries.”
[[Our Master]], [[Christ Michael]] showed you by His own example the [[value]] of these times spent [[alone]] with His Father. Always did [[Michael]] seek the will of the Father, throughout His life and ministry upon [[Urantia]]. He exemplified a sure and positive way to always keep [[connected]] to the spirit currents of [[the Universe]], the Universal First Cause of All that is.
We, His children should follow His [[wise]] example. Why? Because then you will have definite [[direction]], clearer [[understanding]], spiritual [[courage]], more brotherly [[tolerance]], deeper [[love]] and [[desire]] to be more effectual in your loving [[service]] to your brethren and your [[community]] at large. You will most certainly show forth the “[[fruits of the spirit]]” that are [[growing]] and developing within you. You need this nurturance of [[the Father]] within your deep mind, obtained in the [[stillness]] practice.
So we [[admonish]] you to become fruitful. Stay [[connected]] to [[the source]] of your [[power]] for [[growth]] in the [[spirit]]. This is your [[calling]] and your [[service]] for the Father: to shine forth, showing a [[countenance]] of good cheer, expressing [[love]] and [[devotion]] and right action in your [[life]], in all your serving, in all your [[relationships]] and [[interactions]] out in the fields among the “sheep.”
My, it seems we have woven [[parables]] and modern [[technology]] all into a [[modern]] lesson, for a current mind set! Therein lies the [[wonder]] of evolving [[progress]] of [[mankind]]. [[The Master]] taught in [[parables]] using current examples of the [[experiences]] of His listeners of that day.
Today the same lessons can be taught using [[modern]] day [[experiences]] and examples.
In the far distant [[future]] other concepts and [[ideas]] will surely be used.
This can be of [[value]] to you today when you are approached to [[explain]] the present [[Fifth Epochal Revelation]] to others in this more [[modern]] and [[scientific]] age. This world needs an updated and understandable [[revelation]] of the truth which it has in the [[Urantia Book]]!
Therefore let the spirits [[guide]] you and teach you and [[prepare]] you for more meaningful [[service]] to [[modern]] man today. This you do in your [[devotion]] to [[study]], [[prayer]], the [[stillness]] practice, your deep mind [[training]], in your continual progression in [[understanding]], and your daily living of your lessons learned. This is indeed your religious [[experience]] that develops you and [[prepares]] you for your service and your [[ultimate]] [[survival]] and [[ascension]].
With that said I will close and bid you a good day and a rewarding and prosperous and enjoyable meeting this evening.

TARA: Last night I asked for deep [[mind]] [[training]] and I [[awoke]] this a.m. [[feeling]] that you may have more for us regarding the [[stillness]], especially why we seem to [[resist]] this [[practice]]. Please respond if this is correct. Thank you.
TEACHERS BERTRAM and MALCOM: Yes indeed, we have an [[admonition]] for you all. It is very, very important that you practice this [[discipline]], first and foremost for your own [[soul]] nurturance, and for your [[connection]] with [[the Father]]. As we have said before you need this connection to your source of [[being]].
TEACHERS BERTRAM and MALCOM: Yes indeed, we have an admonition for you all. It is very, very important that you practice this discipline, first and foremost for your own soul nurturance, and for your connection with the Father. As we have said before you need this connection to your source of being.
Recall [[the Master]]’s [[180:2 The Vine and the Branches|lesson of the vine]]. You cannot bear much fruit without this [[connection]]. You are the branches where the buds appear, the blossoms form and the fruit is borne.
We could say this in [[modern]] terms today. It is keeping your [[connection]] open with Head Office. You are the workers in the field and you must stay in [[contact]] to know what is going on in the company and what you are [[expected]] to do in your area of [[expertise]]. It all comes down to you, through E-mail, fax, or computer, but all lines must be clear and [[receptive]] to the dictations and commands from the Boss. In the [[stillness]] you make contact with your Divine Boss, through the vine to [[Ta|your Source]].
Today life is much more [[complicated]] and the natural [[flow]] of nurturance through the vine is often impeded. There are more [[temptations]], more [[stress]] on the systems, less time to just stop and smell the roses, less time to stop and [[reflect]], more [[distractions]], ingrain [[habits]] and conditioning. This is not to say that previous [[generations]] did not also have their conditioning and environments to deal with. Earning a living was very labourious, the acquisition of [[food]] took up much of their [[time]] and they did not have all your labour saving devices.
[[Mankind]] has always had his excuses, but the primary reason in any age, why you seem to avoid this [[divine]] [[contact]], is [[fear]]. Yes, fear little one, and that is what I want to address here.
You have all been conditioned to “[[fear]] the [[wrath]] of God.” Remember the [[old testament]] stories of the wrathful God slaying the enemies of the Israelites, casting out [[Adam and Eve]] for their sins, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodom_and_Gomorrah Sodom and Gomorrah]], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Job_%28biblical_figure%29 poor Job] and his [[afflictions]], the [[destruction]] of mankind in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flood_myth the flood], and finally the wrath of an unmerciful God who sought [[justice]] through [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atonement_in_Christianity innocent blood, shed on a cross by His own Son]! Is it any wonder that you recoil at the thought of being in the very [[presence]] of such a God in the [[stillness]] alone. And if you close your eyes, in the [[darkness]]!!
Our little ones, our little children, we [[understand]] your [[fears]], [[the Father]] understands your fears and he loves you and [[desires]] to enfold you in His loving arms, to [[comfort]] you and [[reveal]] Himself to you as a loving Father. You have nothing to fear, little ones, nothing at all!
[[Christ Michael]] came to [[reveal]] the true Father in heaven to you, and he said if you have seen me, you have seen the Father. There has never been on [[Urantia]] a greater display a greater example of [[love]] for [[mankind]]. He exemplified to us a loving God, a [[merciful]] and loving parent with fatherly [[affection]] for each and everyone of His children. He knows each and everyone of you. He wants you to know that He is nearer to you than even your hands and feet because He does indeed dwell within you.
*He wants you to truly [[trust]] Him and to walk with Him daily, to get to know Him as [[your Father]], your friend, your [[guide]].
*He wants you to stay [[connected]] to Him so He can [[guide]] you and help you and nurture you in your [[soul growth]] and [[development]].
*He wants you to [[progress]] forward and upward to His [[Paradise]] Home to be with Him for all [[eternity]], to [[share]] His vast [[domains]] that He has [[prepared]], and is preparing for you.
*He wants you to be [[courageous]] and [[faithful]] and full of child-like [[trust]] of Him.
*He wants to abolish all your [[fears]] and wipe away all your misconceptions of Him and His plans for you.
That is why [[this Mission]] was commissioned by [[Christ Michael]], under the [[leadership]] of His faithful and trusted [[Melchizedeks|Melchizedek staff of teachers]]. Our sole [[purpose]] is the [[soul development]] of all of the Father’s children and the upliftment of [[the Master]]’s sphere of nativity into the first stages of [[light and life]].
Now see and [[understand]] the importance of your deep mind [[training]] and the benefit of practicing the [[discipline]] of the [[stillness]]. Yes, you must discipline yourself and create for yourself this practice, this new [[habit]] of being with the Father in the [[quietness]] of your [[mind]].
[[The Master]] would [[admonish]] you to “be not afraid for I am with you always even unto the end of the age.” He wills that you be [[strengthened]] in your [[faith]] and [[trust]] and in your [[love]] of [[the Father]], for He loves you more than you [[realize]]. The Fathers’ will never [[forsake]] you.
It would behoove you to seriously [[study]] the [[Part 4|life and teachings of Jesus]] in your [[Urantia Text]], so that you can truly get to know and [[understand]] the Father through Him.
Now wash away all your [[fears]] that hold you back from this [[relationship]] with [[the Father]] in the [[quietness]] of your mind, for therein is your [[strength]] and your [[comfort]] and your support to face the [[future]] and beyond. It is your [[refuge]] from all your [[trials]] of [[life]], your source of help to overcome all your [[fears]].

So little ones, have faith and be of good cheer, for you are loved indeed by a loving Father who awaits to embrace you now, in your still moments with Him, and when you arrive upon His Holy Isle of Paradise.

TARA: Malcom, my beloved [[friend]] tells me she finds it [[difficult]] to distinguish anymore my letters from your transmissions. Is this because I am [[resonating]] with you and Bertram and the [[Truths]] of this [[revelation]] coming from my deep mind. What is exactly going on? Also other [[T/R]]’s are also transmitting similar lessons only days or weeks apart. Is there a [[connection]]? Please answer our request for a better [[understanding]]. Thank you.
MALCOM: Little one, there is indeed a [[connection]]. Remember, think about it deeply and you will see our connection. Yes, it is [[the Father]], [[the Source]] of all there is. Remember the vine? The central computer, the command base from which we all [[receive]] our source of [[knowledge]] and instruction, filtered down to us through [[the Circuits|the universal circuits]], the spirit circuits that connect us all together in a mighty [[grid]] work of [[energy]] [[thought]] and transmission. We are, indeed, the end vessels which receive this [[information]] and pass on what we have been taught just as you are doing in your [[receiving]] and passing it on, as physical [[teachers]] in your realms.

Your dear spiritual sister’s request and keen [[observations]] leads us into a further lesson on this deep [[mind]] [[training]] and the [[value]] and need for the contact with your [[Thought Adjuster]] within.
There do you, indeed, connect with your source. All are encircuited, and have this connection with the divine source of all. Did not the Master teach you that when you willed to do the Father’s will, that you allow His mind to be in you, to teach and guide you into all truth, beauty and goodness? Think it not strange then, that the Mind of Christ should dwell in you and bring to your recall also, what you have been taught within your own mind circuitry. This is truly what is meant by being born again within. You become a new creature in Christ, daily growing to become more Christ-like, more God-like in your character, in your thoughts, in your actions.

This is truly what is meant by being [[born again]] within. You become a new creature in Christ, daily growing to [[become]] more Christ-like, more God-like in your [[character]], in your [[thoughts]], in your [[actions]].
But remember this, you are not carbon copies of [[the Master]]. You each have your own [[fragrance]], your own [[personality]] and ways of [[expression]]. We, in the [[teaching mission]], use these [[qualities]] that are distinctly yours, hence our transmissions through you will have your “[[signature]],” so to speak, as well as ours, blended to produce its own [[unique]] style. Someone who does not know you as well as your friend and who has not received personal letters from you, would not sense this similarity, this [[quality]].
We would only [[admonish]] you again, as we have before, not to [[judge]] yourself, or [[compare]] yourself to other [[transmitters]]. Each are called to serve in their unique capacity as well.
What is most important is the messages that are given, and [[the fruits]] that are produce in the lives of those who read them.
Mistakes will be made in the [[transmitting]]/receiving, as we are all in the [[process]] of [[learning]] and [[growing]] and receiving and passing on the lessons learned.
We are in the process of [[becoming]] [[perfect]], students all, and in each our own way and in all manner of degrees, teachers all.
We are only just a little ahead of you, little one, for we are also [[students]], in fact, we learn from you. You do indeed give us lessons of [[value]] also. We are all on this [[journey]] [[home]] [[together]].
There is universal [[truth, beauty, and goodness]] available, to be [[understood]] and known, for the [[seeking]] and the asking. It pervades and envelops all of [[creation]], for it is indeed the very [[essence]] of the [[Universal Father]].
When all [[mankind]], when all God’s children are raised and settled into Universal [[Light and Life]], there will be nothing else but [[Universal]] [[Truth]], [[Beauty]], and [[Goodness]] [[expressed]] in the [[Supreme Being]]. Such a [[glorious]] [[future]], what a glorious present, what a glorious presence you can [[experience]] now in the [[stillness]] as you make that spirit [[connection]] with [[your Father]].
Never underestimate the [[value]] and the importance of that most needful [[connection]] created for you by [[the Father]] Himself, when He gave you this very [[Ta|fragment of Himself]] within your very [[being]].
[[
Christ Michael]] has [[expressed]] to you how we are all to be as one, and this is what you are having a glimpse of, being of one mind and [[purpose]], one [[ultimate]] [[destiny]], working in [[harmony]] in all our personal diversities. To the Father, each of you are precious to Him and He loves and honours each and everyone of you, each [[different]], special and [[unique]], created exactly as He wanted you to be.
So look upon each other as brothers and sisters, all belonging to this great [[cosmic family]] of God, all [[connected]] to the same Universal, [[Heavenly Father]] of all, beloved and cherished.

We have been [[observing]] your world scene and it is most [[grievous]] indeed, INDEED.
[[The world]] is so filled with [[violence]]. When will you learn? What will it take for you to learn? Violence only creates more violence and the innocents suffer.
The world is so filled with violence. When will you learn? What will it take for you to learn? Violence only creates more violence and the innocents suffer.
*The nations are sick and the people are sick at [[heart]].
*Your [[civilizations]] dwell in a most [[darkened]] period.
Your world moans for [[righteous]] [[leaders]], wholesome examples of righteousness and [[goodness]], [[truth]], and [[beauty]]; for mighty leaders, who know the way to [[peace]]. Where will [[Urantia]] find these leaders of tomorrow? Who is going to stand up and turn your world from the [[path]] of [[war]] and [[destruction]], [[violence]] and [[death]]?
We have brought to your attention before, how your very homes are filled with violence;
We have brought to your [[attention]] before, how your very [[homes]] are filled with [[violence]];
*on your television, on your computers,
*in your [[movies]] you rent and watch or [[tune]] into,
*in the [[interaction]] of [[family]] members.
There is unrest and [[anxiety]] within the human [[heart]] of man. He has no inner [[peace]] and his [[society]] has failed him and so he turns to his excesses of [[drugs]], alcohol and make-believe worlds of [[violence]]. What a man [[thinks]]; he [[becomes]].
You have a clear and horrendous example of this, in this weeks [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbine_High_School_massacre violence at the Colorado high-school]. Your talk show hostess, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oprah Oprah], said it quite plainly for all watching, “It’s a [[wake]] up call.” Are you going to [[listen]] to that call?
You have a clear and horrendous example of this, in this weeks violence at the Colorado high-school. Your talk show hostess, Oprah, said it quite plainly for all watching, “It’s a wake up call.” Are you going to listen to that call?
There must be a [[personal]], national and worldwide [[awakening]] to the effects of [[violence]] upon humankind. There must be a personal and national and global turning to [[the Father]], a tuning in to the Father, through [[prayer]] and [[meditation]], a true desire for change within the human [[heart]].
Little one, do you not know, do you not [[realize]], you have within your hands [[the Father]]’s message, His [[revelation]] to this [[Urantia|beleaguered planet]] which would lead to [[peace]] and [[harmony]] and [[brotherhood]] worldwide?
Only when [[mankind]] truly realizes his [[inherent]] [[brotherhood]], will you dwell in [[peace]].
Only when he realizes and [[recognizes]] his eternal and loving [[parents]], the [[Fatherhood of God]], will he become aware of his peaceful place on earth and in the universal family of God. Only when he comes to grasp the fellowship and the kinship of all in the [[Kingdom of God]] will there be peace.
We can but teach [[the Master]]’s religion to you and [[guide]] you when we are called upon. It is up to you to put His message into [[action]], spread the message, plant the [[seeds]], seek out the lost and hungry sheep.
The world [[cries]] for [[peace]] and suffers in the present [[violence]], but be [[assured]] positive forces are also at work upon [[your planet]]. This Mission work is only one example of many.
Be [[prepared]] and ready, each one of you, to do your part when called upon. We [[admonish]] you to [[study]], to “show yourselves approved unto God” and worthy of your [[calling]] into the harvest fields of [[the Master]], not to reap at this time, but to [[sow]] and nurture and feed the grains of [[truth]] and life and [[love]] and [[light]] to hungry and searching [[souls]]. The time of harvest will come and great will be your [[joy]], that you were able to be of service in this most crucial time on your planet, [[Urantia]].
A new age is dawning for all of you.
A [[new age]] is dawning for all of you.
Dire trials are ahead as the [[Correcting Time]] continues in all areas of your [[societies]].
Watch and you shall see and know that you have been made [[aware]] and [[admonished]] and so be not [[afraid]] of what shall come to pass. All [[trial]] is for [[growth]] and lessons to be learned.
You are not [[alone]], personally, locally, nationally, globally. Rest [[assured]] in this [[knowledge]] and be at [[peace]].

Rest [[assured]], little one, we are here to love and [[support]] you in your [[efforts]] to be of service in this [[our Master]] [[Michael]]’s Mission. Many are being called worldwide.
We were pleased indeed to [[perceive]] the efforts of your beloved friend to contact her teacher Mary. Continue to [[encourage]] her in her attempts. Sometimes [[perceived]] [[ideas]] of what [[transmitting]]/receiving is all about must first be laid to rest. The [[ability]] to T/R is not so much [[mechanics]] as it is [[attitude]] of [[heart]], having an open and child-like [[expectation]], trusting and believing. She too is called and much needed in [[Michael]]’s work in her area.
We are constructing a mighty [[grid]] work of transmissions all across [[your world]] and you are all [[becoming]] our base points of [[contact]]. Greatly does this world need [[the teachers]] that Michael is supplying to [[your planet]] home of nativity, both invisible and visible.

TARA: I feel prompted to come to you this [[morning]] for a new message. Please respond.
BERTRAM: My little one, how [[perceptive]] of you. We do have a [[message]] for you and to all who will read this message in the [[future]]. It is the future which we wish to relate to you this morning.
BERTRAM: My little one, how perceptive of you. We do have a message for you and to all who will read this message in the future. It is the future which we wish to relate to you this morning.
You have just watched the introduction to the movie “[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apocalypse_II:_Revelation Revelation]” on television tonight. This movie is indeed a fairly true presentation, in cinema format, of what is believed in the [[fundamentalist]] churches of [[Christianity]] today, and it will certainly reinforce their [[beliefs]] and sway many. You were right in your [[evaluation]] of this program and of the one you saw last night, “Quest for Love.” Both did not directly mention the [[love]] of [[God the Father]]. The latter was the search for love by some of the authors of the [[New Age]] movement that you once so ardently [[embraced]]. They failed to recognize the loving hand of the [[Universal Father]] in the affairs and [[relationships]] of [[humankind]].
They failed to understand [[the Father]]’s love to us during this [[Correcting Time]] of [[trials]] upon the earth. The Father is not here to punish and destroy at the hand of an [[Anti-Christ]].
[[Mankind]] brings his own [[trials]] upon himself by his [[rejection]] of the higher way of life which [[Christ Michael]] plainly [[revealed]] while on earth through his life and his teachings. In their humanness and in their [[passions]] of [[belief]] in [[Paper 187|the death]] and [[Paper 189|resurrection of Jesus]], the [[apostles]] gradually forgot to teach the [[heart]] of [[the Gospel]] of the Kingdom and taught a new religion about Jesus, instead of the gospel of Jesus, his gospel which he taught to them, and it continues to be so to this very day.
Master [[Michael]] brought the good news of the great, world-wide [[brotherhood]] of [[mankind]], thus [[revealing]] that you are, indeed, the children of the living God, and that he is your Creator Father of [[Nebadon|this universe]], and that in [[trusting]] him, in believing him and [[understanding]] him, having [[faith]] in him, that what he revealed was the revelation of the [[fatherhood of God]] and His love for all His children.
Now it has been [[revealed]] to you the [[cosmic brotherhood]] of all God’s children throughout all [[time and space]].
It was indeed difficult for [[humanity]], in the [[Paper 121|times of Christ Michael’s bestowal]] on your planet, to grasp such extended and expanded [[knowledge]] of the [[truth]] of God. It would have been far beyond their grasp to even [[conceive]] of even your earth as a sphere orbiting around the [[sun]], much less the concept of [[local universe]]s, [[superuniverses]], a [[central universe]], an isle of [[paradise]]. Even the concept of [[Paradise Sons of God]] would have believed to be [[blasphemous]] just as even today, the worlds churches will find this truth hard to [[embrace]]. The [[idea]] of the [[Monotheism|One God]] concept, yet embracing 700 thousand [[Creator Sons]], ruling in the superuniveses and eventually into [[outer space]], will be seen as inconceivable [[heresy]].
[[Humanity]] has been allowed to [[progress]] until now, in their now old and outdated [[concepts]].
But now it is time for a new [[awakening]] of [[truth]], a time for the [[correction]] of old concepts, [[traditions]] and [[dogmas]], even more so now, with the true [[revelation]] delivered into your hands in the written form of your [[Urantia Book]]. The world now [[hungers]] for this [[knowledge]], this precious knowledge delivered to you at the close of this present age, at the close of this millennium. Dedicated workers are needed now to carry [[Urantia]] over into this [[new age]], into this new world order of tomorrow.
“Urantia is now quivering on the very brink of one of its most amazing and enthralling epochs of social readjustment, moral quickening, and spiritual enlightenment.” [[195:9|Pg. 2082 of your Urantia Book (195:9.2)]].
This is true indeed. All you need do is look around you and you will see this [[Correcting Time]] taking place now. Consider the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yugoslav_Wars war in Yugoslavia], the [[violence]] in your [[schools]], the violence in your [[homes]], the [[corruption]] and moral decay in your [[societies]] and your [[politics]], even in your sports and recreation. Reactions are being taken to produce [[change]] but what is also needed is [[courageous]] men and women who will come forth and [[lead]] your people into the ways and teachings of [[Christ Michael]].
Only when each child of [[the Father]] begins to realize how much he is loved and cared for, will that [[soul]] begin to cherish his own [[life]] and find [[purpose]], and begin to see and love his brother in that kinship with the Father and with each other.
LOVE IS THE ANSWER. GOD IS LOVE. GOD IS THE ANSWER.
*Only when God’s children begin to truly realize this [[eternal]] [[truth]] and begin to [[desire]] to [[become]] more [[God-like]], striving for that [[perfection]] will the world begin to [[transform]] into the beginning stages of [[life and light]].
*Only then will the earth be [[transformed]] into [[heaven]] on earth.
*Only then will the [[darkness]] be dispersed and the [[light]] of truth and love shine forth.
It is so important that [[families]] be turned around, that [[parents]] begin to spend time with their children and [[listen]] to them, truly listen. Family [[unity]] built on love and mutual [[respect]] having the true gospel at its core is needed now.
*All must come to realize [[the Father]]’s [[love]] and [[purpose]] for His children.
*All must begin to develop self-[[government]] of their own nature.
Self-love, self-respect, [[self-esteem]], [[self-control]], all are needed to raise the self to a higher level of living in [[harmony]] with the will of [[the Father]]; to bring [[peace]] of mind and [[heart]] and [[soul]] and [[eventually]] peace on earth. Only then will [[mankind]] be truly civilized.
The [[future]] indeed looks bleak with [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yugoslav_Wars war in Yugoslavia], rumours of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulf_war more war in Iraq], the horrendous acts of violence in your [[schools]], your [[homes]], on your streets, in your [[cities]].
This we must yet again [[admonish]] you, the [[end of the world]] is not going to happen! [[Your world]] is going through a severe [[Correction Time]], and it will get worse for a time but the end is not upon you The end of this [[violent]] age yes, but the [[future]] is bright and you will find your way in the [[light]] of God’s truth..
Only be [[prepared]] to do your part and to be a [[light]] to those about you as you, by the lives you live, shine a light upon the [[pathway]] to [[peace]].
[[Study]] your true [[revelation]] sent to you from above to show your world the way to peace and how to live that [[peace]] here on your [[beautiful]] planet home and during your [[ascension]] [[journey]] home. Therein lies your [[destiny]], your [[promise]] from [[the Father]].
“There is in the mind of God a PLAN which [[embraces]] every [[creature]] of all his vast [[domains]], and THIS PLAN is an ETERNAL PURPOSE of boundless [[opportunity]], unlimited [[progress]], and endless life. And the infinite treasures of such a matchless [[career]] are yours for the striving!
The GOAL OF ETERNITY is ahead!
The adventure of DIVINITY ATTAINMENT lies before you!
The RACE FOR PERFECTION is on!
WHOSOEVER WILL MAY ENTER, and certain [[victory]] will crown the [[efforts]] of every [[human being]] who will run the race of [[faith]] and [[trust]], depending every step of the way on the [[leading]] of the [[indwelling Adjuster]] and on the [[guidance]] of that [[Sot|good spirit of the Universe Son]], which so freely has been poured out upon all flesh. ”
This IS the true and everlasting [[revelation]] set before you. Can we say more?
Your teachers and guides in Michael’s ways,
Your teacher and [[guide]], Bertram. you for this [[opportunity]] to [[express]] to you our [[joy]], [[satisfaction]] and [[appreciation]] of the [[progress]] and level of [[attainment]] you are all achieving.

Faith is the bridge between the [[material]] and the [[spiritual]].
Faith is the bridge between the material and the spiritual.
[[Mankind]] has never been able to [[prove]] the [[existence]] of God [[the Father]], the Creator, Upholder, Sustainer of all things. Never can he see the Father face to face while in his [[mortal]] or even [[morontial]] form. Mortal man could not survive in the personal [[presence]] of the Father. Yet through faith do you believe in Him and by faith see [[evidence]] of Him all around you in all He displays.
By [[faith]] do you believe in your Sonship, in His Fatherhood. [[Christ Michael]], came to you for the [[purpose]] of [[revealing]] the Father to you, to demonstrate and to [[express]] to you His faith in the Father’s love.
Only by [[faith]] do you have the [[confidence]] and [[belief]] in the indwelling of the [[Father fragment]] within you. You can not prove He dwells within you but you can [[experience]] His presence there.
We would [[encourage]] all to [[grow]] in faith, in the [[truth]] of the [[knowledge]] of the Father revealed to you in [[your text]]. Now you have been given deeper [[insight]], for you are among the first of your brethren in this new dispensation to believe in this new revelation sent for the [[enlightenment]] of God’s children on [[Urantia]].
To you has been given the responsibility to lead the way, to be true “faithers” of the true way of the Master. In faith now, go forth into the new age now coming upon your world.

TARA: Malcom, I need some personal advice regarding the [[T/R]] [[process]]. Am I adding to the process my own [[ideas]] and not [[listening]] as clearly as I should? I’m more [[hesitant]] of late to even attempt the process.
MALCOM: My little one, again you [[fear]]. You have come so far. We will not let you slip. You can have [[confidence]] in us in the [[transmitting]] process of which you are a part. We did [[explain]] just recently how each of you have your own “[[signature]],” that is your own way of [[expressing]] the ideas you receive from us, coloured yes but we work with this and around this to teach you the lessons sent. Do you [[understand]]? This process can never be divinely [[pure]] for we are not divine, we are only divine in [[potentiality]]. We are all students together in this [[journey]] of [[life]].
Do not be [[discouraged]]. Remain [[faithful]] and true to your calling into [[this mission]] of [[Michael]]. Many more are being called now, many are needed. Grow in [[faith]] and in [[confidence]] in the [[purposes]] of the mission and the work to be done. Much needs to be corrected, [[relationships]] healed, [[families]] healed, nations healed.
Start right where you are to daily correct your own life and be examples of [[Michael]]’s way, [[students]] of His truth and exemplify his life in your life in [[goodness]] and loving [[kindness]] to your brothers and sisters. This is how you show forth the [[light]], how you will aid in [[enlightening]] your brother, so that he too can realize his place in the brotherhood of mankind and in the eternal family of God the Father.
Such a great and eternal [[destiny]] lies before you all. Never loose sight of your eternal destiny. Through [[faith]], living faith, in a living and personal loving [[Heavenly Father]], will you of [[promised]] [[certainty]], arrive at the eternal shores of the [[Paradise]] Isle.
Go forward, little one, in full [[assurance]] of the work that is in [[progress]], even now behind the scenes, to bring this beloved planet into the beginning ages of [[Light and Life]]. You will surely settle into your place among [[the planets]] that circle the [[Paper 33|administration of Christ Michael’s Universe and Kingdom]]. Always hold high the [[hope]] and the [[promises]] of Michael regarding your planet home. It will not be destroyed in the coming [[trials]] ahead, though there may be dire periods of [[correction]]. These you will all [[experience]] and it will indeed be at your door also. Only be [[prepared]] and not asleep. You would be [[wise]] to listen to the [[176:2|lesson of the virgins (176:2.8)]].
Do not [[panic]] or be fearful but abide in complete and confiding [[trust]]. Draw close to the spirit within you. There you will find the [[peace]] and [[strength]] and [[confidence]] and assurance of the Father’s love for you and all His children. Look for the new [[dawning]] of the [[new age]], the new dispensation coming upon your world.
I will leave you now and may you ponder these words. There is purpose and reason for all that transpires around you. Look for the lessons presented to you and grow thereby.

BERTRAM: Little one, we have this message for tonight. There seems to be much concern and worry over what is happening on your world at this time.

*-- into a [[new age]] of [[truth]] and [[light]],
*-- into a time of [[change]] and correction,
*-- into better and peaceful ways of living,
*-- into a concept of worldwide [[brotherhood]] such as this world has never seen before.
Much work needs to be done and we call you to be ever mindful of the lessons each of you must learn in your own lives. It would most definitely benefit you to [[study]] the [[Part 4|life and teachings of Jesus]] at this time. Truly [[embrace]] the religion of [[Jesus]] and how he lived it. Allow the “[[fruits of the spirit]]” to become the very [[essence]] of the life you live, the life you exemplify in your daily [[interactions]] with your brothers and sisters.
We have a portion of [[Urantia Text]] for you to begin with, “[[100:7 The Acme of Religious Living|The Acme of Religious Living” Section 7, pg. 1101-1104]].
We have a portion of Urantia Text for you to begin with, “The Acme of Religious Living” Section 7, pg. 1101-1104.
Throughout his life [[the Master]] was an example of true [[God-like]] [[perfection]]. You have been called to “become perfect as he is perfect.”
[[Realize]], perfection [[attainment]] is an ongoing [[process]], beginning here on your beautiful world, and on throughout your sojourns of [[time and space]], in the [[Central Universe]] and beyond.
You have indeed been given a [[beautiful]] example of such a strong and unified [[personality]], as revealed in [[the Master]], in [[UB|your Text]]. Read it, study it and learn and grow in [[spiritual]] [[stature]] daily.
We would bid you farewell. Your Teacher and Guide, Bertram.

MALCOM: Little one, wipe away your tears. This transmission is for you only.
We must remind you that you are in [[good]] hands, as is [[Urantia|your beloved planet]]. We know that you are [[worried]], much concerned about your present [[health]]. Truly your friend Jan has spoken well; she does not [[understand]] your present problems of health and each one copes differently.
We are here to tell you the [[truth]]. You do have severe health [[problems]] that are making life more [[difficult]] to cope with at this time. We know that you are searching for your own answers, how to [[become]] well once more.
We are here to tell you the truth. You do have severe health problems that are making life more difficult to cope with at this time. We know that you are searching for your own answers, how to become well once more.
Little one, do not [[fear]]. You are indeed in the loving care of [[the Master]]. He loves each and everyone of you and wills that you be well and [[healthy]] once more. Each of you have your own individual [[trials]] to bear and to overcome. We will help and [[comfort]] you. You only need call on us and truly believe that we are here, that we see your [[pain]] and discomfort. You will find the help needful for you.
Everyone has their own allotted [[time]] to be on their planet of nativity. You do fully now [[understand]] the plan of [[the Father]] for all His children on all the worlds of [[time and space]]. Life does not end here at the time of mortal dissolution of the flesh.
Totally and completely [[realize]] that [[life]] will go on for you, for you have [[embraced]] the will of the Father in your life and have that complete [[hope]] and [[faith]] in your [[promised]] [[destiny]].
Take our hand little one for we are all here to [[love]] and [[support]] you, from your dear and beloved friend Cheryl on [[Urantia]] to your [[Paradise Father]] who [[Ta|dwells within you]].
Seek now the proper [[care]] that you require. Circumstances will [[guide]] you into the proper care you need. So be [[strong]] now and [[fear]] not in the days and months ahead.
Live today as if you were to die tomorrow, not in gloom and despair but with [[renewed]] and [[radiant]] [[hope]] of the eternal [[future]] that stretches out before you. No one now knows the day of their departure of the flesh. But all will. Then life, real life will begin for you. But make no mistake this present [[life]] in the [[flesh]] is valuable to you, for the [[strength]] of [[character]] of [[your soul]] personality that you develop.
Now little one, take rest and be renewed in your flesh. No one is [[judging]] you and no one can live your life for you. Only you have that divine [[free will]] choice. You may suffer by your [[actions]]; you may find reward for your actions in renewed [[strength]] and [[health]]. You can now only work with what you have.
Always remember, it is the [[soul growth]] that is the [[supreme]] [[goal]] of any life in the flesh, for this is the [[survival]] [[essence]] of any [[child of God]] in the flesh. All else is left behind in the dust of the [[earth]] for ever more. The sting of [[death]] has gone for you and you know in you [[heart]] that you will welcome that day of departure with [[rejoicing]], knowing it is only the beginning of a [[wondrous]] [[adventure]] beginning on the [[mansion worlds]] of [[Jerusem]].
No more tears, little one, you are [[progressing]] well as [[Christ Michael]] has told you. He is pleased with your progress and He has yet much work for you to do for Him. So be [[faithful]], little one, to your [[calling]], to your willingness to serve Him day by day in [[love]] to your brothers and sisters.
We bid you [[farewell]] now this [[beautiful]] spring evening.
Your friend and guide, Malcom.

TARA: Is there a message today?
MALCOM: Little one, once more you [[hesitate]]. You fear the true [[source]] of these [[communications]]. This is only natural with so much going on around you in these last days of this century. [[The Master]] warned there would be wars and rumours of wars and [[false]] [[prophets]] would abound. We only ask that you be alert and watchful in the days and months ahead.
Do all that you can to be of loving [[service]] to those you can help and are able to help in your [[families]], in your [[communities]], in your national and global arenas.
Do all that you can to be of loving service to those you can help and are able to help in your families, in your communities, in your national and global arenas.
You must look within your own [[hearts]] and [[minds]] and there do your own [[correcting]] of [[attitudes]] and mind sets. Weed out old unserving [[habits]] that bind and hold you and replace them with the liberating [[ideals]] of the religion of Jesus as He lived it. The [[kingdom of God]], the rulership of [[the Father]]'s [[righteous]] ways are to be established within your own [[hearts]] and [[minds]]. Each are [[responsible]] only to the Father, that this very day dwells within each and every one of you, and to his son [[Christ Michael]], your local universe [[Creator Son]] who now [[Master Son|reigns supreme]] over all his works and in your human [[hearts]].
Do not be mislead or [[confused]]. Take only what is [[good]] and true and weigh that against what you have been taught.
You are each [[responsible]] for the life you live in the flesh. Concern yourself with the [[moral]] and [[ethical]] ideals of outgoing [[love]] and [[brotherhood]] towards all, seeing in them your common kinship in the family of God here on [[Urantia]], and also live in the [[future]] [[anticipation]] of encountering your place in your expanded [[cosmic brotherhood]] with all your brothers and sisters of [[time and space]] in your own [[local universe]] and the [[superuniverse]] and [[central universe]] beyond.
Such a great and [[magnificent]] [[destiny]] lies ahead for all of you. Keep this expanded and glorious [[future]] uppermost in your [[minds]] and [[hearts]] and do all you can to teach these higher [[concepts]], now taught to you, to your brothers and sisters who also seek the answers to life, it’s [[purpose]] and [[destiny]]. Always be gentle as doves and kind in all your response when these little ones who come [[sincerely]] seeking. But be [[wise]] in your response and [[understanding]] as you feed these babes, these little lambs of [[the Master]].
Always be alert and aware of the larger picture of the happenings, of the events transpiring around you. Do your part lovingly and wisely and humbly serving your brothers and sisters as would your Master Michael.
Always be alert and aware of the larger picture of the happenings, of the [[events]] transpiring around you. Do your part lovingly and wisely and [[humbly]] serving your brothers and sisters as would your Master [[Michael]].

TARA: Is there a message for the [[Hamilton TeaM|Hamilton Group]] this [[morning]]?
BERTRAM: My little one, yes. We realize there is still concerns regarding the [[future]]. The [[question]] has been raised regarding the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Y2K Y2K] issues and concerns. To what degree should you be concerned and [[prepared]]?
Yes, indeed, it is an issue of grave concern for all mortal [[inhabitants]] of [[your planet]] home. Previous transmissions have [[touched]] on this though not directly to this issue of concern or to the extent to which it is asked now.
First and foremost I will address the issue of [[faith]], for indeed this will be your “[[strength]]” and your “bridge” and your “support system” now and in the [[future]]. You maybe direly tried and tested in the near [[future]].
Always remember you are never alone. Ever have confiding [[trust]] in the loving care of [[the Father]]. Forever more have [[faith]] --
*in the comfort of the [[Spirit of Truth]] here to [[guide]] and direct you,
*in the sure and ever guidance of the [[Mystery Monitor]], the spirit fragment of the [[Paradise Father]] within you,
*in the [[revelation]] of written truth within your text, the [[Urantia Book]], the sure promises made to you there regarding your [[future]] and that of your planet home of nativity.
Indeed [[Urantia]] is much loved and overseen and cared for. She will not be destroyed, though she may “rock and reel” under the weight of her misguided ways.
It may indeed be [[wise]] for you to make [[preparations]] in the material needs of your [[families]], but ever remember it is your [[faith]] in the [[goodness]] of the Father and his ever present help that will see you through.
There will most certainly be [[interruptions]] of [[services]] to greater and lesser extent depending on where you live upon [[your planet]]. It will be a period of trials and the growing of [[faith]] and [[love]] and [[service]] to one another, of [[sharing]] and supporting one another whether in physical needs or mental and spiritual support and upliftment and [[enlightenment]] of one another. The worst will be brought out in some, in their [[fear]] and desperation. Be [[prepared]] for this.
*Now is the time to build your reserves for your [[family]] in [[wisdom]] and [[love]].
*Now is the time to build your [[faith]] in the [[supreme]] God of Love who rules over you and in the [[hearts]] of men of good will.
*Now is the time to build your [[trust]] in one another,
*Now is the time to build [[family]] [[love]] and [[loyalty]] and [[cohesiveness]].
*Now is the time for all of [[mankind]] to again pull together for the good of all as one united global [[family]].
This coming period of [[correction]] and [[adjustment]] could indeed be, and will be the beginning of a new and prosperous age for [[your planet]]. As [[devastating]] and as costly as the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kosovo_War Kosovo War] has been in lives lost and extensive damage done, even now [[pray]] that lessons have been learned and [[peace]] will ensue and [[corrections]] made that will lead your planet again a step forward to the age of [[Light and Life]]. [[War]] will never bring [[peace]]. Only [[progressive]] and positive and permanent change within the human heart will accomplish that supreme goal of peace and [[enlightenment]] for your planet, [[Urantia]].
As we have said so many times we are not prognosticators, we cannot tell you the exact [[future]].
We can only [[encourage]] you to continue on in your [[soul growth]] and enrichment and go forward in [[faith]] in the [[love]] of [[the Father]] for all his children everywhere and do what you can to bring His will upon earth in the hearts of all [[mankind]].
*Ever is it true, there will be [[peace]] to men of [[good]] will.
*Ever [[express]] your good will to those in need now and in the dire days which you may face in the [[future]].
*Ever [[grow]] as true “[[faith sons]]” of the loving Father of all.
I now bid you farewell. Your teacher, Bertram.

TARA: I feel there may be a message for us tonight. I truly [[desire]] to get back on line once more. It is good to be back [[home]] again.
BERTRAM: Little one, we have sorrily missed you and are glad to see you at your [[home]] base once more and ready to continue on in [[this mission]] work of the Master.
BERTRAM: Little one, we have sorrily missed you and are glad to see you at your home base once more and ready to continue on in this mission work of the Master.
Yes, we do want to bring you this message this evening. We have told you so often that [[Urantia]] is heading into a period of dire [[correction]] and [[trials]], and that you should not fear when you hear dire prognostications of a “[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doomsday_Scenario doomsday scenario].” [[Michael’s bestowal]] planet will not be destroyed, of this you can rest [[assured]]. She will surely go through a severe period of [[trial]], cleansing and [[correction]]. All this is needful in order to set her [[course]] anew on the path leading to [[Light and Life]].
Many are now [[awakening]] to the need of [[change]]. The old ways must be changed and made new, with new [[ideals]] and concepts that lead to [[peace]] and [[prosperity]] for all God’s children everywhere.
It may seem that these messages are repeated over and over, and indeed they are, for we must press upon you the need of your [[preparedness]], that you be alert and watchful in the days and months and, yes, years ahead.
You must all learn to grow ever closer to [[the Father]], and come to know His will for you, now and in the dire time of [[trial]] ahead. We are sent in the [[service]] of [[the Father]] to [[guide]] and [[prepare]] you now.
It is needful:
It is needful:
*that you grow [[strong]] in [[faith]],
*that you know whereon you stand this day,
*that you will not be tossed to and fro in the [[chaotic]] and [[confused]] times approaching,
*that you will be able to be that strong and [[faithful]] [[demonstration]] of HIS [[righteousness]],
*that you will be showers of the way into the [[new age]] of [[enlightenment]].
Many are being called now into an [[understanding]] of the [[Fifth Epochal Revelation]].
More and more of [[God’s children]] everywhere are [[becoming]] aware of the [[Urantia Book]], [[reading]] and [[studying]] it, [[embracing]] and [[believing]] it. [[The Master]] is needful of more teachers as you go into this [[new age]] coming upon you. Many are answering the call to [[service]].
More and more of God’s children everywhere are becoming aware of the Urantia Book, reading and studying it, embracing and believing it. The Master is needful of more teachers as you go into this new age coming upon you. Many are answering the call to service.
Do you realize the privilege you have to be alive on your beautiful Urantia at this time in the history of your planet?
Do you realize the privilege you have to be alive on your beautiful Urantia at this time in the history of your planet?
[[The Master]] is calling out and [[preparing]] that special people to lead His people into the new age now coming upon you, those who will be [[leaders]] in the world tomorrow. These are the called and chosen leaders who will be the true spiritual [[teachers]] of the religion of Jesus, teaching all [[mankind]] the true Gospel of Jesus. These will teach again the truths so often brought to this world and lost from view in previous epochs of [[revelation]].
Yes, you are all called to be [[teachers]], each in your own way, right where you are; called to advance the [[Fifth Epochal Revelation]] throughout [[Urantia]], in the service of [[Christ Michael]].
So do we [[admonish]] you now, to grow in your personal [[relationship]] with [[the Father]] and truly come to know that YOU ARE ALL, INDEED, HIS CHILDREN and that ALL, ARE YOUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS, travelling together on the [[ascension]] paths leading homeward.
Now do we leave you to [[think]] on these things and to set your feet on the [[path]] leading to [[light and life]].

TARA: I feel there is a [[message]] this morning.
MALCOM: My child, there has been a long [[delay]] since our last transmission. We [[realize]] you have not been well. Do not be discouraged, but continue on as you are able. We are here to [[support]] you and to [[guide]] you. [[The Master]] desires that you continue on in your part in your work for him.
MALCOM: My child, there has been a long delay since our last transmission. We realize you have not been well. Do not be discouraged, but continue on as you are able. We are here to support you and to guide you. The Master desires that you continue on in your part in your work for him.
We do have this message for you this rainy [[morning]].
There was the question asked by your beloved friend, “How does one [[change]] their [[habits]] and [[actions]]? Why do we keep doing the same thing over and over again, especially now that we are more aware of certain actions and [[thoughts]] and yet still do what we don’t want to do? How do we make personal [[corrections]] in our lives? What is the [[meaning]] of [[48:7|Morontia Mota #24 “The destiny of eternity is determined moment by moment by the achievements of the day by day living. The acts of today are the destiny of tomorrow.”]]
A tall order you have given me. Little ones, you must realize that the Father loves you each and everyone of you and they, nor are their servants, your [[teachers]], task masters.
We do fully realize that the life [[journey]] is a [[progression]]. Do not read into this [[mota]] that your actions of this moment in time are determining your [[ultimate]] fate for all [[eternity]]. This is a very mortal thing to do because of what you have been taught in the [[Evolutionary religion|evolutionary concepts of manmade religions]].
The Fathers certainly do not condone [[sin]] and [[iniquity]], and you certainly could not live for [[eternity]] in that state of being in your [[future]] experiences in [[time and space]] or in the [[presence]] of [[the Father]]. The Fathers love you at every [[stage]] of your [[growth]] and development just as you love your erring and wayward children. You are being nurtured and cared for even in your stumbling and apparent [[failures]] along the way. You are indeed, now mortal flesh and “spiritual babes” in [[growth]] and transit. You are not thrown out with your soiled bath water!
Your teaching and nurturing takes [[time]] and [[experience]]. That you are [[aware]] of your [[errors]] are [[proof]] of your [[growth]]! With each experience you will accomplish a little more. [[Trust]] the [[Ta|spirit of God within you]] to direct your [[actions]], for only by replacing old unserving [[habits]] and [[thought]] processes with new ones do you overcome and [[change]].
So often have we told you to grow close to [[the Father within]], in [[prayer]] and [[communion]] with Him in the [[stillness]]. This is needful for you, to armour yourself against your own [[weaknesses]] and the unserving influences without.
Yes, can you not see now, [[understand]], that you do indeed [[determine]] your [[destiny]], moment by moment by the [[achievements]] of daily living? It happens moment by moment.
[[Perfection]] isn’t achieved instantly as if by the [[wave]] of a [[magic]] [[wand]] or even in the event of [[death]] and [[resurrection]]. You will still carry on moment by moment, living day by day all the way to the [[Paradise Isle]]. God has [[prepared]] for you His multiple [[architectural worlds]] of living and learning, for [[experience]] and [[growth]] into true [[God likeness]], into literal children of His eternal and [[cosmic family]].
Yes it is also true that in your constant and continual, unchanging [[attitude]] of [[rejection]] of what He offers, embracing only [[sin]] and [[iniquity]] even after the [[truth]] has been fully [[revealed]] to you, yes you can indeed, moment by moment by such daily activities, [[determine]] your own destiny of [[isolation]] and [[annihilation]] from the family of God. (?)
You must put your [[mind]] at ease now and not be fearful, for [[the Father]] is a loving God and He [[embraces]] every child of His, and is there within [[guiding]] and [[leading]] you, as you will and allow, even during times of [[trial]] and [[adversity]], oftentimes unknowing and unrealized by you.
But you now know and are aware and all you need to do is ask, and help is there immediately. Ask [[the Master]] to be by your side and let the [[Spirit of Truth]] direct you. Just as your own children fail and flounder and you pick them up and love them and [[encourage]] them on, so does [[the Father]] and His hosts ever cheer you on, in your [[mortal]], [[soul]] struggles in life.
In eternal [[love]] reaching down and mortal love and [[sincere]] [[attitude]] of heart reaching up, rest in the [[assurance]] that you will not fail in your [[ascension]] [[journey]] home. A multitude of teachers are [[prepared]] and waiting to assist you now and in all your spheres of [[learning]] for all [[eternity]].
So be of good cheer and joyful in all your struggles moment by moment. Rest in the loving arms of Fathers who have [[prepared]] a place for each and every one of you, yours for the striving and that striving is indeed moment by moment in your daily activities of life as you endeavour to overcome and grow in the “[[the fruits|fruits of God’s Spirit]].”
We would remind you that the plan of [[God]] for your success and [[ascension]] has already been set in place, as you have [[read]] in [[your text]]. Continue to read and study and be grounded in the [[truths]] found there and so clearly [[explained]] for you.
“There is in the mind of God a PLAN which [[embraces]] every creature of all his vast [[domains]], and THIS PLAN is an ETERNAL PURPOSE of boundless [[opportunity]], unlimited [[progress]], and endless life. And the [[infinite]] treasures of such a MATCHLESS CAREER are yours for the STRIVING!
The GOAL OF ETERNITY is ahead! The ADVENTURE OF DIVINITY ATTAINMENT lies before you! The RACE FOR PERFECTION is on! Whosoever will may enter, and CERTAIN VICTORY will crown the EFFORTS of every [[human being]] who will run the RACE OF FAITH AND TRUST, DEPENDING EVERY STEP OF THE WAY ON THE LEADING OF THE INDWELLING ADJUSTER, and on the GUIDANCE OF THAT GOOD SPIRIT OF THE UNIVERSE SON, which so freely has been poured out upon all flesh.” [[32:5|Pg. 365]]
“There is a GREAT AND GLORIOUS PURPOSE in the march of the universes through space. ALL OF YOUR MORTAL STRUGGLING IN NOT IN VAIN. We all partake in an IMMENSE PLAN, a GIGANTIC ENTERPRISE, and it is the vastness of the undertaking that renders it impossible to see very much of it at any one time and during any one life. We are all part of an ETERNAL PROJECT which the GODS ARE SUPERVISING AND OUTWORKING.
The GOAL OF ETERNITY is ahead! The ADVENTURE OF DIVINITY ATTAINMENT lies before you! The RACE FOR PERFECTION is on! Whosoever will may enter, and CERTAIN VICTORY will crown the EFFORTS of every human being who will run the RACE OF FAITH AND TRUST, DEPENDING EVERY STEP OF THE WAY ON THE LEADING OF THE INDWELLING ADJUSTER, and on the GUIDANCE OF THAT GOOD SPIRIT OF THE UNIVERSE SON, which so freely has been poured out upon all flesh.” Pg. 365
The whole marvelous and [[universal]] [[mechanism]] moves on [[majestically]] through [[space]] to the music of the metre of the INFINITE THOUGHT and the ETERNAL PURPOSE of the FIRST GREAT SOURCE AND CENTRE.
The ETERNAL PURPOSE of the eternal God is a HIGH SPIRITUAL IDEAL. The EVENTS OF TIME and the STRUGGLES OF MATERIAL EXISTENCE are but the scaffolding which bridges over to the other side, to the promised land of spiritual reality and supernal existence.” [[32:4|Pg. 364]]
These are but a few of the excerpts from your text, the [[Urantia Book]], that reveal the [[destiny]] and the [[purpose]] that are yours, if you [[desire]] and strive for it.
I [[hope]] this has helped in answer to your [[questions]]. You need not be [[anxious]] at your stumbling. Always continue to strive in your [[spiritual growth]] to overcome, knowing all is not in vain and [[eternal life]] awaits you with all its [[wonders]] and [[glories]] to [[embrace]].
I bid you good day, ever your guide and friend, Malcom.

TARA: Malcom, do you have a lesson on the aspects of [[joy]]? Why don’t we feel more joyful when we are so [[blessed]] to have [[knowledge]] of the [[UB|Fifth Revelation]]?
MALCOM: Little one, [[listen]] to us. We will help you to [[understand]].
MALCOM: Little one, listen to us. We will help you to understand.
[[Joy]] in the human heart is rare, indeed, at this most critical time on [[your planet]]. The constant [[struggles]] of life so often overcome the joy of [[the soul]].
These are not the peaceful times that your planet should have now been enjoying at this time in your evolutionary [[development]]. Daily you hear of wars and rumour of wars, but did not [[the Master]] say “Let not your heart be troubled?”
There is constant striving and [[pressures]] in all your individual lives, in your national and global lives. The nightly news is filled with yet further reports of more [[violence]] on your streets, in your [[homes]], in your global home. You hear of manmade violence and, indeed, violence of [[nature]], also contributed to by man. Where is [[peace]] and [[safety]] for you and your loved ones in these last days of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/20th_century twentieth century]? Your children are not safe in their [[schools]], on the streets or even in their [[homes]]! Indeed much [[correction]] and the teaching of new ways of living, relating and loving are needed in every aspect and every strata of your [[societies]] worldwide.
Is it any [[wonder]] you feel saddened at [[heart]] and feel heavy laden?
Little one, lift up you head in [[faith]] and teach others also, that there is [[hope]] and reason to rejoice. [[Your world]] does seem to be absolutely out of [[control]]. Bad news on your broadcasts far outweighs the [[good]] that is reported.
But now rest [[assured]] that [[mankind]] is now [[awakening]] and realizing that [[changes]] must be made on all levels of [[society]]. Long held secrets of moral [[decadence]], decay and [[corruption]] are coming to light for all to see, and [[justice]] with corrections and changes are being made.
The worlds’ [[heart]] is indeed saddened by the [[atrocities]] now being [[discovered]] in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kosovo_War Kosovo]. Such scenes surely sadden your [[tender]] [[hearts]] but also elicit response to [[action]]. [[Change]] does seem to [[progress]] very slow indeed when you cannot see the whole picture of world events or even the events [[surrounding]] your own lives.
We would [[admonish]] you all, to have [[faith]] and [[trust]] in the outworking of the plan of God for your planet home. As that faith and trust grows within you, then shall you begin to feel more [[joy]] within your [[being]].
[[Trust]] that all is in good hands and you do, indeed, live in a friendly [[universe]] and at this present moment in time, [[your planet]] home is being cleansed and [[purified]] and being brought to its rightful place in [[the circuits|the universe circuits]]. All is in [[progression]], [[correction]] and [[change]].
You need not [[fear]] but truly rejoice that [[the Father]] is ever mindful and loves each and everyone of you.
Pray daily that [[the kingdom|the Father’s kingdom]] of [[peace]] and [[light and life]] will come upon your planet; that the present [[pain]] and suffering will cease for all mankind everywhere. Truly, it is the Father’s will that His children live in [[peace]] and [[safety]] and [[security]], that they be filled with the true [[joy]] and [[peace]] that passes all [[understanding]].
In your [[awareness]], you are saddened indeed, but in your [[enlightenment]], you shall find [[joy]] and reason for rejoicing for [[the Father]]’s will, will be done in earth as it is in heaven. In this have total [[confidence]] and [[trust]].
Now, little one, I will bid you good day and [[trust]] you will find [[renewed]] [[joy]] and [[hope]] within.
Your teacher this day, Malcom.
