I have come once more to deliver a message to you and to teach you in person this evening. Ham is not here but sends you his best wishes. Many changes have indeed taken place of recent years and many more are expected to occur shortly. These changes are mostly of a spiritual nature and will not concern most people, but for you these changes should be of primary importance. You will become increasingly sensitive and aware of their importance. The system circuits which are now being reinstated will cause certain changes in the spiritual gravity of this world which many people will be sensitive to and respond to. This will aid our work tremendously. The gravity of the Son, the Eternal Son that is, has tremendous power and weight. Your spiritual sensitivity and capacity for receptivity will increase noticeably. His drawing power is unmistakable to the spirit, to the soul, which will increasingly respond to this feeling. Communications such as this will increase and become more widespread. Many people will respond. The Father Melchizedek imparts the following instruction: "Allow the spirit feeling freedom of movement. Open your spirit to receive and allow this spirit feeling to flow through you unimpeded. This will be the greatest benefit to you."

Q: Is there significance that Melchizedek referred to himself as Planetary Prince of Urantia instead of Vicegerent Planetary Prince? Has a change been made?

Q: Is there significance that [[Melchizedek]] referred to himself as [[Planetary Prince]] of [[Urantia]] instead of Vicegerent Planetary Prince? Has a [[change]] been made?

A: No. This omission of the word "vicegerent" is not meant to cause confusion.

Q: Last week Melchizedek stated the forthcoming changes could cause small calamities, and that he would like to see as many people as possible brought into the fold of believers. He said he would require our help with this. Was he referring to both the avoidance of the small calamities and the bringing of people into the fold when he mentioned our help, or only the latter?

A: Both. I don't wish to cause apprehension among anyone. These things are sad, and they seem small to you, you see. As he said, small calamities can change the world. To us they are calamities, to you they may seem as nothing important.

Q: Do you anticipate spiritual regression in the future?

Q: Do you anticipate spiritual [[regression]] in the [[future]]?

A: Yes, we have seen regression already, and this will undoubtedly continue for a time.

Q: How may we help you the most effectively?

Q: How may we help you the most effectively?

A: This is an interesting question. Each person has his or her own endowments which allow him or her to work and flourish in the world. This is not a simple task. It at least requires much time, much effort, and will not be pushed, cannot be pushed, but must be allowed to grow, to cause change, to reverse the downward, backward trend that we have seen for so long. This will not be sudden but must come gradually as the hearts of men come gradually to God.

Q: That by touching a few with the message of ascending livelihood, each one of us can teach and inspire others, that is what you would term the greatest help of all?
