WILL: My dear ones, we gather here tonight again to discuss our journey. Cathy and Ron are absent, but they will have much to tell us about upon their return from their trip to California. You may be rest assured that their trip was well worth it, even if they just had the opportunity to get away from the drudgery of daily life.

WILL: My dear ones, we gather here tonight again to [[discuss]] our [[journey]]. Cathy and Ron are absent, but they will have much to tell us about upon their return from their trip to California. You may be rest [[assured]] that their trip was well [[worth]] it, even if they just had the [[opportunity]] to get away from the drudgery of daily life.

There are many things going on right now, and it is important to have someone looking on to watch and listen. Your participation for the moment is understated in all things, but you can be assured that in the near future you, too, will be active in the greater movement. Your time to go public has just not yet come. This is the time for building a strong inner core of believers. Ones who can withstand the winds of judgmental skepticism and slander that surely will come. You will be subjected to criticism from some who do not believe nor understand what you are doing here. Never mind that the days now seem slow to you--you must do what you must do. That is what is important. Don't go chomping at the bit too early. Those of you pushing at the corral gate will just have to wait a little longer. Measure by measure you will be led to understand the full teachings of the Father. He will prepare you to the fullest for the journey ahead. You need not be concerned for your part in what is to be, just keep studying and reading the papers to give yourselves the firm foundation you need for the time when you will be asked to step out and supply our Father with the workers He will need to carry out the mission ahead.

There stands between you and the Father a vast space of knowledge--one that can be supplied only by daily prayer and involvement with the Thought Adjuster and all the other spiritual help available to you. We work from without, and the Thought Adjuster works within. He is the one to connect you immediately with our Father. If you have concerns, take them to the Adjuster, who is the Father in you. He will hear your petition. Always does the Father listen to His children. The answer may not be immediately forthcoming, but it will come nonetheless. Those who are diligent in their prayer life will find the rewards great, for our Father is generous in His support of love and nourishes His child with all things on a spiritual level. Nothing is wanting and He will always be there--God is never absent from His post. While you humans have forgotten Him in your daily life, He never forgets you. After your day is over, think of all the ways during the day He was with you and you were not even aware of it--in the smile of another or in the kindness of a stranger. Our Father makes time for us, let us make time for Him.

WILL: The love of God surrounds us. The love of God upholds you. The love of God enfolds you. Wherever you are, He is. Greetings to you all. I am Will.

WILL: The [[love]] of [[God]] [[surrounds]] us. The love of God upholds you. The love of God enfolds you. Wherever you are, He is. Greetings to you all. I am Will.

As we gather here tonight, I am [[delighted]] to hear you [[talking]], and cherish the way that you all [[interact]] with each other. It is [[good]] that you all see that it is important to stay in [[contact]] with each other and to reach out whenever you have the need. As we bring in more and more people into our [[group]], our [[circle]] will grow and you will have the [[opportunity]] to nourish more and more of [[God]]'s [[children]]. We [[welcome]] tonight two more who have been brought into our [[circle]] and [[hope]] that they will remain with us to [[study]] and to do the bidding of [[the Father]] in Heaven. There is much work to be done and I can only [[hope]] that we will have more and more who are willing to take up that work and to do what is required to do to advance [[the kingdom]] on earth.

With every [[opportunity]] that you have to lighten the burden of another, I invite you to do so, for we all know those who need our [[assistance]], who need a kind [[word]], who need the closeness of another because they have no one who can give them that [[reassurance]] that they need from another [[human being]]. They have not yet begun to find [[the Father]], and in reaching out to those, you will help them to begin to find that which they have not yet had. Return to [[the Father]] all that love that He returns to you. Guide all those around you, to bring them to a closer walk with Him. He reaches out for all those who are searching for Him, and you can help in whatever way that is possible. We invite you to stay fast in your [[efforts]], and be open-minded to whatever [[our Father]] brings your way.

We invite you to stay fast in your efforts, and be open-minded to whatever our Father brings your way.

It is a [[joyous]] [[experience]] that we are on, and we have a joyful [[opportunity]] to [[work]] His will on this [[planet]], to work with others and to do his bidding under whatever [[circumstances]] He has asked us. Forever keep in [[mind]] that He is with you, watching over you and giving you whatever [[support]] you will need to do his bidding. Never forget that He loves you. He [[cares]] deeply for you in a way that you cannot yet [[understand]]. Never in your [[imaginings]] could you [[understand]] such a [[love]] because even in your earthly [[journey]], you cannot love another with such love. It is powerful. It is never ending. It is all [[encompassing]]. It is unrestrictive and allows [[opportunities]] for you to [[grow]], to be [[joyful]] and to have the things [[spiritual]] that you would have. Work with Him on all levels. Be always [[diligent]] and ready to do whatever He bids you do. I invite you to ever stand ready at the door of [[opportunity]], for you never know when [[our Father]] will ask you to do something in His name. Opportunities come every day and many are passed by, because you are too busy doing something else. A gentle [[kindness]], a [[kind]] [[word]], a [[favor]] done out of [[love]], not because it was asked, will show your love for that [[person]] and allow you to [[exhibit]] [[God]]'s love through you. He needs many like you who are willing to pass on His [[Love]]. There are too many who need it.

He needs many like you who are willing to pass on His Love. There are too many who need it.

You must be the [[shepherds]] going out to His sheep, bringing them in one by one, just as we will in this [[group]] go out one by one and bring in those who need the [[understanding]] that we have to offer. You have so much to give and [[our Father]] will let you know the [[knowledge]] that you will need in order to [[perform]] what He will ask. You need not [[fear]] not having the [[knowledge]] to do your assignment. It will be there, and you can rest [[assured]] that [[our Father]] will give you all knowledge and all [[patience]] to carry that out. For some of you having that [[patience]] is the hardest thing that you [[struggle]] with, for you want all that [[knowledge]] right now and you may have to wait. "All things come to those who wait," you have heard said and that is truly so, but don't be so impatient that you lose other things along the way.

There are many [[skills]] that you must acquire to be a full [[citizen]] of [[the kingdom]] and as you acquire these skills you will become a more [[effective]] worker, for [[God]] needs you fully [[trained]], fully effective to carry out all the tasks that He has for you. Calm yourselves and take the time to [[study]] and [[learn]]. Be [[patient]] with your brethren as well. You are not all growing at the same [[rate]]. Some of you have more time for [[study]] than others, and some of you are more willing to [[grow]] than others--even though some have the [[time]], so much of that time is put into other [[activities]], ones that are not exactly of a [[spiritual]] [[nature]]. While we understand that [[leisure]] activities are important and that reversion is [[necessary]] in your world and in your life, so is your [[spiritual]] life. At least as much time should be put into your spiritual life as in your reversion. Can you not give [[the Father]] as much time as you put into your television or whatever [[activity]] that takes you away from Him? Isn't it enough that He asks you for so little and yet some of you are not even willing to give Him on a daily basis what He asks. [[Communion]] with Him would do much to advance your [[spiritual growth]] and to daily keep you [[growing]] in the right direction. Spend that time each day that is [[necessary]] to keep you on track and [[stress]]-free and in [[communion]] with [[the Father]], with the [[Thought Adjuster]], and with all the spiritual help that you have. Those of you who are so desperately trying to [[commune]] with [[the Father]] and with the rest of us will find that in due time you will be able to do so. The time is just not right. Some things you can do right now. Communing with [[the Father]] is always a present thing to do. He is ever present within you and ever available to help with whatever your needs are. The rest of us stand eagerly by. We hear your [[prayers]] and we do whatever we can to answer them. If you reach out and are [[sincere]] in your prayers, they will be answered in one way or another--maybe not an [[immediate]] answer, but one will be forthcoming. Sometimes the answer may be "No" or sometimes the answer will be "Not yet", but there is an answer to every [[prayer]].

You must be the shepherds going out to His sheep, bringing them in one by one, just as we will in this group go out one by one and bring in those who need the understanding that we have to offer. You have so much to give and our Father will let you know the knowledge that you will need in order to perform what He will ask. You need not fear not having the knowledge to do your assignment. It will be there, and you can rest assured that our Father will give you all knowledge and all patience to carry that out. For some of you having that patience is the hardest thing that you struggle with, for you want all that knowledge right now and you may have to wait. "All things come to those who wait," you have heard said and that is truly so, but don't be so impatient that you lose other things along the way.

Now I would like to turn to something [[different]]. [[Our Father]] is pleased with all of you. You have worked hard and He looks at you all and your coming [[together]] and the [[efforts]] that you put forth in your [[dedication]] to each other and to this [[group]]. The [[power]] that is generated and the [[love]] that you have one for the other--oh, if we could only spread this throughout the world. Your [[planet]] would be an unbelievable place on which to live. Years from now when your world is settled in the Ages of [[Light and Life]], this is what it would be like, each one loving the other, caring for and truly loving [[the Father]], calling upon the Father daily, spending time daily in [[prayer]], and in more [[association]] with the spiritual beings of the world. Those of you who are capable would daily [[commune]] with the spiritual beings. I have seen the [[future]] for you all, and it is [[good]]. Stay with us, hang in there. We are going to get there, you and I. We make a very good team. Those above who watch are our spiritual beings. The [[spiritual]] [[personalities]] who watch to see what we are doing-for there are many other groups that will be started elsewhere and yours being the first of many-we try many things to see how things work, and see what kind of things can be done here that would better further the teachings.

There are many skills that you must acquire to be a full citizen of the kingdom and as you acquire these skills you will become a more effective worker, for God needs you fully trained, fully effective to carry out all the tasks that He has for you. Calm yourselves and take the time to study and learn. Be patient with your brethren as well. You are not all growing at the same rate. Some of you have more time for study than others, and some of you are more willing to grow than others--even though some have the time, so much of that time is put into other activities, ones that are not exactly of a spiritual nature. While we understand that leisure activities are important and that reversion is necessary in your world and in your life, so is your spiritual life. At least as much time should be put into your spiritual life as in your reversion. Can you not give the Father as much time as you put into your television or whatever activity that takes you away from Him? Isn't it enough that He asks you for so little and yet some of you are not even willing to give Him on a daily basis what He asks. Communion with Him would do much to advance your spiritual growth and to daily keep you growing in the right direction.

Sometimes the answer may be "No" or sometimes the answer will be "Not yet", but there is an answer to every prayer.

You are fortunate within your [[group]] that you have so many who can [[commune]] with us. Other [[groups]] may not have that, but we are slowly [[preparing]] one person at a time, those who can commune with us and, in that [[process]], bringing them together to build groups and to slowly branch out into the world. But first, we must build a strong basis of believers-strong core who will help things hold [[together]]. This is what you are all about. We need more believers. We need strong people like yourselves. We need [[fearless]] people like Eric. The rest of you will become fearless after awhile. Never fear that you do not [[possess]] that [[quality]] now. It is all a [[growth]] [[experience]]. As I said, we are all at [[different]] places. Some of you just have more [[growth]] in that area to achieve. Rest [[assured]], my [[folks]], we are going to get there. It is all happening as it should be and I do not [[worry]] about you. Just continue to [[study]] and to [[read]] and to [[pray]], to spend time daily with [[the Father]], and let His [[love]] shine through you. Do you have any questions for me tonight? I will gladly take a few moments to answer them if you do.

SUSAN: I am going to speak for Soldette. Soldette has a [[friend]] named Ann who apparently wants very much to come here and Carol had some concerns about whether or not it would be appropriate to invite her. I will raise the question. It sure sounds like it from what I am hearing tonight.

Now I would like to turn to something different. Our Father is pleased with all of you. You have worked hard and He looks at you all and your coming together and the efforts that you put forth in your dedication to each other and to this group. The power that is generated and the love that you have one for the other--oh, if we could only spread this throughout the world. Your planet would be an unbelievable place on which to live. Years from now when your world is settled in the Ages of Light and Life, this is what it would be like, each one loving the other, caring for and truly loving the Father, calling upon the Father daily, spending time daily in prayer, and in more association with the spiritual beings of the world.

We make a very good team. Those above who watch are our spiritual beings. The spiritual personalities who watch to see what we are doing-for there are many other groups that will be started elsewhere and yours being the first of many-we try many things to see how things work, and see what kind of things can be done here that would better further the teachings.

WILL: Your friend Anne is a very [[spiritual]] [[person]]. I do not know though at this time whether she is ready to come into the [[group]]. The advances that she had made in her own [[spiritual growth]] have been many and she was most [[touched]] by the letter that she was given. As to whether she would be allowed into the [[group]] at the present time is really something that the group must [[decide]] upon. It should be taken to the group and let them decide whether a new member should be allowed into the group now. I really cannot give you a definite answer except to ask your fellows and let them decide. It should be made clear that she have a firm [[understanding]] of the [[Urantia Book]] and what it says, so that she not ask questions that would sidetrack the [[discussion]] or get bogged down in her questions. She must do her own searching and she must do her own catching up. She must be willing to do that. Is there someone else?

Do you have any questions for me tonight? I will gladly take a few moments to answer them if you do.

VINCENT: Hello Will. My [[parents]] are living in Saudi Arabia and are [[Urantia Book]] [[readers]]. They have asked me to [[inquire]] about the [[Koran]], its source and any comment you might have on it and I am also interested in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Book_of_Mormon Book of Mormon]. There are a lot of religious [[books]] out there that purport to be [[inspired]] and I would like to know if you can tell us a little bit about those two books.

SUSAN: I am going to speak for Soldette. Soldette has a friend named Ann who apparently wants very much to come here and Carol had some concerns about whether or not it would be appropriate to invite her. I will raise the question. It sure sounds like it from what I am hearing tonight.

WILL: The books that you speak of are [[inspired]], but they do not contain the [[truth]] about our spiritual world. There are many things in those books that come from [[spiritual]] [[sources]], but there is much that has been [[polluted]] by [[human]] [[thinking]] and, in [[reading]] them, it is best to remember that any time we get into a [[discussion]] of books that are of a [[religious]] source, it is best not to say anything that would be of a [[damaging]] nature to them because they are of great [[inspiration]] to the people who believe in them. So for those who have found inspiration by reading those [[books]], let it be and try not to dissuade them from their [[belief]]. For what they have found has given them substance. It has helped them in their daily lives. The books have helped them walk through their lives. You will get no [[argument]] from me and I would really rather not make any further comment on these [[books]]. As to your [[parents]], it is unfortunate that they are so far away for we know that you miss them. Perhaps there will come a time when you can [[share]] with them what is going on here. Until that day, they are [[surrounded]] by [[the Father]]'s [[love]] and have all the spiritual help that they could possibly need. Our Father loves them as well, just as He loves you. Is there someone else?

WILL: Your friend Anne is a very spiritual person. I do not know though at this time whether she is ready to come into the group. The advances that she had made in her own spiritual growth have been many and she was most touched by the letter that she was given. As to whether she would be allowed into the group at the present time is really something that the group must decide upon.

SUSAN: I actually came up with a question while I was [[reading]] this week. It was a [[reference]] to the upside and downside of what we view as [[personality]] [[problems]] or flaws. In one message, considering [[courage]] the upside of conquering fear, I am not real [[clear]], do you have any other examples of the upside and downside?  

VINCENT: Hello Will. My parents are living in Saudi Arabia and are Urantia Book readers. They have asked me to inquire about the Koran, its source and any comment you might have on it and I am also interested in the Book of Mormon. There are a lot of religious books out there that purport to be inspired and I would like to know if you can tell us a little bit about those two books.

WILL: [[Courage]] is a basic element the [[personality]] needs in order to [[endure]] daily life. Without it, one would surely dissolve and crumble amidst the load of life. One's basic [[personality]] must contain this element to [[survive]]. If you have an [[opportunity]] all through your life to build this element, then you will possess a good strong background from which to draw. This [[character]] trait will hold you fast in any situation that you may find yourself in.

WILL: The books that you speak of are inspired, but they do not contain the truth about our spiritual world. There are many things in those books that come from spiritual sources, but there is much that has been polluted by human thinking and, in reading them, it is best to remember that any time we get into a discussion of books that are of a religious source, it is best not to say anything that would be of a damaging nature to them because they are of great inspiration to the people who believe in them.

[[[Communication]] interrupted. Will shifted her [[presence]] to Eric.]

SUSAN: I actually came up with a question while I was reading this week. It was a reference to the upside and downside of what we view as personality problems or flaws. In one message, considering courage the upside of conquering fear, I am not real clear, do you have any other examples of the upside and downside? WILL: Courage is a basic element the personality needs in order to endure daily life. Without it, one would surely dissolve and crumble amidst the load of life. One's basic personality must contain this element to survive. If you have an opportunity all through your life to build this element, then you will possess a good strong background from which to draw. This character trait will hold you fast in any situation that you may find yourself in.

ERIC: I think I can answer this question based on [[personal]] [[experience]]. One day Jade and I were riding to school. I was taking her to her school and we passed by Jewel Street, a street in our [[neighborhood]] and a sand road. Right where Jewel meets the paved highway, there was a gigantic water puddle-so deep that pickup trucks would drown out in it, and the drivers were wearing away other people's property trying to skirt the edges of the water hole. That morning the grader operator from the county was out there and, of course, in order to fill the hole, he must drain it first, so he was carving a trench to drain away the water and then he would pick up some dirt from farther up the road and bring it in to fill the hole. Jade and I were [[talking]] about what he was doing. I said, "Yeah, every month, they send this poor guy out here to do nothing. He doesn't have any dirt. He can't grade a hole, what he needs is a couple truckloads of dirt to fill the hole." And Jade said, "Well, there is dirt everywhere. Everybody that lives on the road could get a couple of shovels full and bring it down and throw it in the hole. Then the hole would be filled and you wouldn't have this big [[water]] [[problem]]." And I said, "Jade, you are right, but that is exactly what people are not going to do because people do not work that way. They will not work [[together]] on a project like that. They will wait forever for the county to send a truckload of dirt out there while they are sitting on mountains of dirt in their own yard. But the upside to that characteristic is that that very [[independence]] is what makes people strong and capable of working [[alone]] in other bad situations." So she and I had a good [[discussion]] about the upside and the downside of [[personality]] characteristics.

WILL: Ah, my young [[friend]], you are answering my question for me. Your track record on answers is not all that [[good]]. This one was okay. At least in sentence number two, I won't say you are wrong. We will allow your answer to stand as sufficient in this case. Are there other questions from members of the group tonight?

VINCENT: I am sure that you have been out to L.A. a few times, how is it going out there?

VINCENT: I am sure that you have been out to L.A. a few times, how is it going out there?

WILL: I will not spoil the presentation of your friends when they return. They will have much to report. They are to be your eyes and ears and although we observe the events that take place out there closely, we shall wait and see how Ron and Kathy have alerted themselves while present in that atmosphere-but we appreciate your interests in those events, even though they are somewhat remote and do not touch your group directly at this time.

WILL: I will not spoil the presentation of your [[friends]] when they return. They will have much to report. They are to be your eyes and ears and although we [[observe]] the [[events]] that take place out there closely, we shall wait and see how Ron and Kathy have alerted themselves while present in that atmosphere-but we [[appreciate]] your interests in those [[events]], even though they are somewhat remote and do not [[touch]] your group directly at this time.

Of all the groups presently under instruction, this is the most quiet. The actions which you take are designed not to draw the interest of outside groups-particularly of those who would be resentful of some aspects of this message. For now, we will keep it that way. There is much development which can take place in each of your lives that will be beneficial for you throughout your careers. We servants of the Father cannot say that the confidentiality of this group is holding any person's-any member's spiritual progress back in any way. Each of you know this in your hearts. The time will come soon enough for public works. I can see that it is unnecessary for me to promise that such public works are just around the corner or just over the horizon for certain members of the group approach those developments with dread. Do not worry, we will not cast you upon the fire. The days of sacrifice are long past. We need you all to do important work. Little do you realize that you are in the vanguard. You are far out beyond the lines. We will not leave you. It is for the other people in the world to catch up to your position. We are breaking ground, breaking trail for the new view. The new trail that you have broken shall become a highway as the people follow along in your wake. But it is your blessing and your opportunity and to your advantage to see the new view--to see and hear and live the good news. The days of glory are yet to be experienced. You are lucky. I am lucky. We all are favored basking in the light of the Father. He has given us this opportunity, this work to do. He has given us a real job. We are happy about it. All of us, the members of the instruction team, can see the happiness in your hearts and we are particularly gratified to see the growth and concern among each of you. Those of you who have felt little or no connection with the other members of the group are responding in a truly loving fashion.

We welcome you Hal and HeYu to our group, and hope that you like the feeling of brotherhood and the developments which have taken place here. I know that you will enjoy the materials you have read compiled thus far. You have one time been a member of this family and we invite you to return. Join with us, for we are just now beginning. One day the doors will be open wide, and there will not be enough chairs. It will be standing room only in the Father's hall. That will be a good day. We would like to see the day that the humans are packed into the Father's hall. That would be a sight to see.

Good Evening, my friend. I welcome your contact; I am your teacher, Will.

Good Evening, my [[friend]]. I welcome your [[contact]]; I am your teacher, Will.

Your friends seek my opinion on the Brotherhood meeting events, about which you know nothing. The appearance of Ham was poorly received, because it was generally unconvincing. Abraham did not address those gathered, and the whole thing degenerated into a test of faith -- or so it seems. From your point of view -- the human participators -- this is another reversal, and ground for doubt to spring up, like late-season weeds.

From your [[point of view]] -- the human participators -- this is another reversal, and ground for [[doubt]] to spring up, like late-season weeds.

It seems there has been a policy shift, with a prejudice against works. Nevertheless, the members of the Utah group volunteered to carry through a scaled-back exhibition, because affirmations had been offered regarding Ham's address to the convocation. In quality, though, the general feeling was similar to the disappointment at the failure of Gabriel to appear in Thern's basement.

In [[quality]], though, the general [[feeling]] was similar to the [[disappointment]] at the failure of [[Gabriel]] to appear in Thern's basement.

I say that it "seems" a policy shift has occurred because, although I am intimately connected with the Utah instruction effort, my shared knowledge extends only to reportage of progress and not decisions contemplated regarding experimental or novel efforts. Perhaps "works" have been assessed as still-too- provocative for your people, and tending to dangerously induce reliance, with the event itself overshadowing the lesson of ministry that was the original intent.

Good morning. I have words to say on two topics, by request of members of your spirit growth family. I am Machiventa Melchizedek, and I send you my greetings from afar.

Good morning. I have [[words]] to say on two [[topics]], by request of members of your spirit [[growth]] [[family]]. I am [[Machiventa]] [[Melchizedek]], and I send you my greetings from afar.

 

This type of communication is allowed by increased growth in belief, spirit consciousness, and receptivity on the part of the human. When the human has adapted to the minimum standards, then guidance begins. A short reflection on the history of your species development is instructive on this topic. The first human pair were watched over with parental concern, but not guided in any way. While many -- even countless -- humans have been the individual beneficiaries of special instruction and guidance, until now no general outreach program has ever been set in motion, aside from the normal planetary dispensational developments that have gone awry in your case. Only the bestowal life of the Creator Son went according to plan, and met with complete success from our point of view, although the Paradise Son met with rough treatment and a brutal departure from the physical life. Still, his name lives on, and the example of the Father's love, brought to life in the flesh, yet endures, although many in their next thought dismiss those events as irrelevant to modern life and of only historical interest. Soon they will see differently.

The type of communication which we now enjoy is adaptable to existing technologies which you daily employ in your work and play. There is no reason that the written word should be the only method of communication. At the moment, you and I are utilizing written communication because it gives us a degree of privacy that is otherwise virtually unattainable in a public setting. Respect for literacy and writing is so profound in your society that most people suffer severe hesitation before they would disturb you in this setting. Oral communication, however, is quite flexible. Roland utilizes videotape to record transmissions. I recommend it to you as an application for questions such as Desmond's. Please obtain the necessary materials, and I will arrange a one-way communication from myself and his teacher Ramsey, to be recorded by you and delivered to Desmond. It is your first try at this novel approach, but I think you are up to it. Desmond will be grateful for anything you produce, and I know that you have legitimate concerns for the accuracy of the material.

Telephone communication is a snap, too. The only difficulty is in achieving the degree of privacy necessary for composure, and assurances should be provided that the integrity of the recorded material is not violated or exploited. In that case, communications with the transgressing party would be suspended. Not ended. Tell this to Desmond.

Desmond's group will come to fruit, in the area originally intended, with the people originally intended. We cannot force or maneuver people against their will. It is forbidden even to maneuver people who have expressed disinterest by their overt acts, in the service of the Kingdom. Only those who have consciously embraced the Father's will, and those whose acts have shown them to be amenable to alternative views of reality, may be utilized overtly or covertly to facilitate developments. With the hostile, and the dullards, we can do nothing, and these abound. For Desmond, however, since he so enjoys the fellowship of the Tallahassee group, we recommend frequent visits to the Sunday night meetings, as the time is available to him. He is already aware of the attractions of the Tallahassee family, and will benefit greatly from your welcome, if so offered. You people are favored in Heaven, and you may show him a good service, and thereby influence the development of another group with your excellent example of loving fraternity.

The events of [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=1991-02-01-Ham_To_General_Council the Brotherhood meeting] almost fell to the level of a [[waste]] of time. The [[minds]] of the [[participants]] barely rose above the level of [[material]] [[expectation]]. I see more [[reverence]] displayed at any deer hunter's tree stand than displayed in Los Angeles. You people feel and express [[disappointment]] because your [[expectations]] were not fulfilled, but I say to you that the failing is among your people. The least intimation that we offer causes the [[minds]] of the people to [[abandon]] all personal [[responsibility]] for their own [[values]]. They immediately demand bread; they demand works; they demand [[visions]]. It is as if I were back among the [[tribes]], who slaughtered and burnt in the name of the [[fear]] god, and called the smoke [[holy]].

Little do you [[realize]] how tenuous these [[connections]] are. Our commitment is strong, powerful, true, and unfailing. But we will not play the [[music]] that the people [[desire]] to hear. They will turn aside from [[the Kingdom]], as they have before. From within and without, whether the camps of [[Israel]] or the camp of [[Urantia Book]] [[readers]], many are present only for meat and fire and companionship. And when the word of [[the Father]] rings out, they will disappear by ones and twos, back to the night sands. It is [[difficult]] even for the [[steadfast]] to stand firm. You, Ron and Cathy, and the Utah visitors, know now how [[the Father]] felt, watching the people melt away from the least flicker of His flame. It is discouraging. We, above, have [[difficulty]] even maintaining [[communication]] with our devoted [[human]] [[partners]] under these circumstances.

It is all right. These things have all been seen before. We will ask you to try to elevate your [[perspective]]. We move forward in some areas, hold the line in others. Stand fast, that is [[loyal]] [[service]], while all are fleeing around you. That is the stuff from which [[Mighty Messengers]] are made.

Not so many [[groups]] meet under [[guidance]] at this time, and of the [[experimental]] aspects under [[observation]] and measurement, we are most pleased, most pleased with the growing [[family]] [[relationship]] of your [[study]] group. Particularly with the recent [[tensions]] over a [[method]] of introducing or inducting new members, a real sense of family [[adjudication]] is developing. Once again, it is the [[process]], and not the result, that is most interesting to us.

I will not [[express]] approval of any proposal under [[consideration]] at this time, but will say that there are no unsound [[ideas]] tendered. How to deal with [[disputes]] is a [[skill]] that will serve you through the [[material]] [[career]]. In the [[afterlife]], things are more [[harmonious]], although differences of [[opinion]] certainly arise. We watch your group closely; we have [[learned]] many good lessons from your willingness to entertain our [[presence]] and [[participation]]. We thank you all.

I [[desire]] for new people to enter the group, beginning soon.

Work will be beginning soon, and [[the Father]]'s table stands ready for the guests.

You and Vincent will be delighted to know that your [[message]] took. The minister heard the [[voice]] of [[the Father]], [[expressed]] within him. He is [[listening]], and learning, and teaching the good news to all who encounter him, and not thinking primarily in terms of [[programs]] and projects. It is a help to him, and as he grows in the [[spirit]], you will encounter him again, and he will thank you.

This could have all been [[achieved]] through direct [[action]] on our part, but that is not as rewarding.

And from there, onward and up. He will soar, one day to work shoulder to shoulder with us. -- [[Machiventa]] [[Melchizedek]] [private/personal material]

We are working on a plan for you, which should take effect shortly. It will ease some of the demands for work, and income derived from that work, so that you can concentrate more effort on the truly important concerns. This is an unusual thing for us to do, for it is an intervention, but you are an unusual case -- a willing worker, for God or man -- and you perform an honest service without resentment while fully understanding the utter valuelessness of most of your activity. So I think you are sophisticated enough to absorb this grant of God's favor without abusing it as an entitlement or as an approval of your own worth. While it is an approval, it also is not. It is just another tool, another arrow in the quiver. So we will not be granting you a life of ease, of repose.

We think your priorities are sound and immune from unwise alterations. God, family, learning, service. It would be ironic that such a display of intent should be confined to only one or two hours out of each 24 available daily, particularly where the absurd demands of your material society dictate so much wasteful activity for the benefit of other, remote takers.

We reason this way with Vincent also, although his material situation is far different, his chief obligation being his long- standing commitments to work, where yours are the establishment of a minimum level of stability. You are both short of the most important commodity in the market: time. We are working on a relief plan for you both. You will come first, because yours is the easier solution and more readily achievable. Vincent's will be slower, especially where he has already set certain key components in motion of his own perceptive volition, such as freedom from debts. Thus the answer to his repeated request, "How are you going to cash-flow this operation?" We are not -- you are. Also, tell him this:

Vincent, do not rely on only one method of reception. Your friend was wrong to recommend using the technique that showed promise to the exclusion of all others. We wish to communicate with you mentally. You have gained good experience with these writing exercises, but open your mind to our words. You will know. The crisis of doubt is ahead yet, for you to pass. You are a great doubter. The greater the doubt, the greater the convert. You think you are with us, but I say that the great days are yet ahead. Quiet yourself. Hear my words. Stop wanting. Make the decks ready, for things are about to happen. I see your commitment and will act on it. Discipline yourself, the runaway parts. It is almost time.
