And so, what is the onerous [[apocalypse]] and why would any one believe that this beautiful planet would be laid to rack and ruin when all the [[evidence]] points to the opposite? The world of [[the cross]]- here, [[Michael]] brought down the [[Lucifer rebellion]] - Victory - a great achievement, the magnitude of the Lucifer rebellion taking more than thirty planets down into rebellion against God. He triumphed. But, the biggest thing is that He [[triumphed]] in the [[guise]] of you, as a [[human]]. He showed the way. He brought forth the [[faith]] in you that He always had in His children, lived through life in this land [[incarnation]] and sent the dark prince falling, screaming in ruin, and in discredit. And so, it was not only the [[victory]] but also the style in which our magnificent [[Creator Son]] set Himself apart. And in like style, He will not only get you through apocalypse to the rebirth of [[this planet]] to [[light and life]] and the others, as well - all of the others, as well, - but He will do it with a cleverer and cleverer twist. It was mentioned last night that Godless [[power]] [[structure]]s are beginning to self-destruct. I think it an appropriate [[irony]] that they destroy themselves as we watch, as we thoroughly [[survive]]. But, we build forth a new civilization full of [[Truth, Beauty, and Goodness]], and beyond that the hallmark of our special, and clever, and resourceful, and creative Creator Son. So, as you read about massive accounting scandals, [[corporations]] stewing in their own [[corruption]], [[evil]] vying itself out, death and destruction infuriates and brings forth to higher [[spiritual]] [[service]] all the good and honest and beautiful people on this planet

As you see all these things happening before you, do not think of [[apocalypse]], think of new [[growth]]. When I first visited [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cincinnati,_Ohio Cincinnati] ten years ago there was fear of just these things: economic collapse, nuclear destruction - [[fear]], fear, fear. I said then that these kinds of destructions would be seen. [[Disintegration]] is always seen before new [[growth]]. That is my story and I'm sticking with it. And so, we continue to play out this grand scenario on life's [[stage]] on this little planet in this [[local universe]] -the struggle of [[good]] and [[evil]], and there's a [[purpose]] for that, which we certainly don't have time to get into. Thus, simply reach beyond [[apocalypse]]. What do you have to fear? This is [[Michael]]'s planet. This is Jesus' planet. This is [[your planet]]. You are empowered. You are emboldened. You are full of love. Can you see the destruction? Or, can you not see [[redemption]]?

[[Redemption]]. Would Michael fail? I think not. Would [[this mission]] fail? No. And you have nothing to [[fear]] from this [[Teaching Mission]]. It is relatively [[simple]]. We are [[Morontia]] [[teachers]] coming back to teach people who supposedly know less than we, although, on occasions we may question that. Nevertheless, we stick to our [[stories]], even repeating them endlessly, 'til you actually do go into the [[stillness]] every day. Do you understand? We nonetheless maintain our good [[humor]] when you do not. It's rough just living in this place. It's rough in so many ways. And, you are getting through it, and you are getting through the [[apocalypse]] in grand fashion. And, you will get through the next apocalypse the same. However, let evil be destroyed and it can be brought down in our lifetime by evil's own hand, as Jesus wants them to destroy themselves. And, don't invest your currency, your time, and your [[efforts]] to [[institutions]] that are corrupt and dishonest. It's time to make a choice and find those strong institutions that can withstand, or new ones that you can build in the [[glory]] of a new beginning. It is not an end. It is a new beginning. It's a beautiful [[story]] and it's true. I thank you for your time tonight. I love you all.
