Changes

ABRAHAM: I thank you for your [[kind]] words, Harrison, and also [[express]] my [[appreciation]] for you. I see the men's ministry as a branch off the [[Teaching Mission]]. I find it to promote fellowship and [[comfort]] for men to reach their true [[feelings]], which has been difficult in the past, especially when men gather together. I can see a great many benefits stemming from this [[group]], however as always, the choice is in the hands of [[mortals]]. This group does well to [[focus]] on not only [[service]], but empowering their brothers to become more Christ-like, more comfortable in their [[spiritual]] and worldly responsibilities. I say carry on.

WARREN: Abraham, I would like to run something by you concerning your life here about four thousand years ago. Relating it to what I [[interpret]] as far as this [[self-mastery]]. The little I know that is revealed in the [[UB]], was when you were here, of course you went to the [[Melchizedek School]] three times I understand, and you had pretty much been [[converted]] about giving up your numerous gods, chosen to relay the [[torch]] of the [[truth]] of the [[one God]], all the while preparing to be [[the bestowal]] planet of [[Michael]], our Creator Son. You came back from Egypt after two [[military]] [[victories]] there you split the spoils. Declining Egypt, which I guess was a great [[temptation]]. Coming back and having kingly [[ambitions]], getting with the four tribes and getting out there [[conquering]] where you had eleven tribes under. Then at that point, [[Melchizedek]] having basically refused to [[sanction]] your scheme or [[vision]] of conquering [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canaan Canaan], that you realizing you had a son, that this [[covenant]] was sealed, and that was when I guess you were told by Melchizedek that by the offspring and the [[future]] occupation of Canaan was up to the Heavens and the number of the [[stars]] and in due time you would seek (?) At that time even though the covenant wasn't signed at that point, you were [[promised]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isaac Isaac]. Isaac came. It seems to me after that, by [[faith]] you became more [[dedicated]] to doing the will of our Father as you learned through [[Melchizedek]]. In seeking the knowledge of the will of this one Father, this Father within us, the Spirit within us, this constant renewing level that via the resulted [[revelation]], the personal revelation that you were able to recognize more and see in this act and as an result [[clarification]] of [[vision]], a enhanced cosmic [[insight]]. In that you were more able to master yourself, not just with the human [[effort]], but with the effort that came about as your spiritual vision was clarified and your cosmic insight enhanced.

ABRAHAM: Well said. I have to admit this was the [[struggle]] of my entire [[universe career]] so far. I was with that [[desire]] for [[power]] and superiority. I was indeed willing to do any and all things to [[attain]] it. I first came to the Father because I thought I could convince Him to allow me my way. Through the [[mentoring]] of my brother/friend [[Melchizedek]] did I learn that what I thought I most desired had changed with each day of [[experience]] and education. As I subjected myself more to the Father's will my desires [[changed]] from worldly to the [[divine]]. It was definitely with great struggle that these changes were made, but as I made effort Father stepped forward to assist. Each time I allowed some [[spirit poison]] to be released Father replaced it with spiritual fruit. Many, many years of [[practicing]] to [[surrender]] enabled me to naturally want to [[embrace]] Father and His [[ideals]]. Like the [[story of Job]], when he had experienced enough to know he could not fully [[trust]] in his own [[thinking]], he released it and his desires to invoke something higher, thereby receiving what the story refers to as a [[vision]] of God. Yes, you are correct that with your efforts made toward living a life in the spirit it does become more natural to [[receive]] direct Father [[guidance]]. This is not [[attained]] without struggle of course, but it is surely an open window that [[receives]] light. Good question.
