Changes

Obviously, you have contact with your personal [[teachers]] to the extent that you have given yourself this opportunity. You are likewise increasingly in contact with [[Machiventa]] as well as he who comes amongst us, [[Magisterial Son|Michael's brother]], to teach. The [[Reflectivity|broadcasts of heaven]] have alerted you to his coming; our own presence has alerted you to the same. [[Machiventa]] himself speaks as does Michael, and soon you will hear from another. You have seen his [[light]], he has greeted you; he comes amongst you as one of you. Do not concern yourself with the recognition of his [[identity]]. He will make himself known in due time, and yes, there will be those who share the gift of his physical proximity, but greater importance is upon those who share a devotion in spirit to his teaching. Has not Michael himself, when living as one of you speaking to Thomas the apostle said "how blessed are those who have not seen, and yet believe"?

You are inclined, mortals by your nature, to rush yourselves to a place, to be like [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_139#139:2._SIMON_PETER Peter], the first to greet the Master on the shore of [[Galilee]], and of course, when we come amongst you as one of you naturally we delight to greet you likewise, but in this form there is a constraint, there is a limitation which is not in [[spirit]]. The Master, should he choose to stand again in [[person]] upon your world, of course he would delight to receive you in person and in [[fact]], and he would, as he has, and there would be those whom he would call to this joy of sharing this life of [[incarnation]], but greater is the life in his [[Spirit of Truth]] whereby he reaches to all who would receive him without regard to physical limitations.

You know well the errors of the mortal mind when considering the false [[concept]]ions of [[chosen people]]. Yes, any Son who would come amongst you wearing the suit of mortality would choose for various reasons his place and time defining thereby those from whom he might choose to share this life. These indeed are chosen, but are they valued more highly? No, of course not. Might they have a role, a task in his strategic outreach to your world? Yes, you do well to distinguish between the [[value]] of each child of the Father and the task, the function they may perform. Each child is valued equally, each child is [[love]]d [[divine]]ly, held in this embrace of divine [[affection]], but not so the functions, the tasks that are performed in the administration of a [[Planetary government]]. There are functions which are more or less critical to its successful administration of these divine truths of our presence, and in this dispensation there are many tasks coordinated on high through various means. [[Machiventa]] is your [[Planetary Prince|Prince]] overseeing these [[things]] but as you know Michael is ever near as he holds the title of Planetary Prince of [[Urantia]].  Machiventa is your acting Planetary Prince under Michael's direction, acting on his behalf. Michael as you know is your [[Creator Son]], Sovereign Son; he maintains his many responsibilities for all of the worlds of his own making, and his brother coming amongst you, yes, will have his task as well, and yet there are others.
