WILL: Good evening. I greet you. I am your teacher, Will, who loves you. At the Father's request, by Michael's design, according to the Melchizedek, I am your teacher and I have enjoyed the time that we have spent together. You have raised a number of questions this evening that I will address in the beginning. If it is all right, I will deal with a number of topics at once. Eric has raised in the past concerns about the remark made by Rayson about a teacher serving for two years only and then the group abandoned and the teacher reassigned. I will tell you that I will be your teacher for the foreseeable future. This group will meet for years. This group will not be disbanded. People will come and go, but the core of this group will not change. We will all grow and develop and live the life that we now aspire to. Your assignments and your missions will change according to the developments that take place in your spiritual life, but as far as can be seen into the future, we will be together. We would not turn our backs on you. We have just begun. Our friendship has just passed the formulation stage. It would be silly to break off contact. We hope to develop personal, individual communication with each of you, through one spirit minister or another, according to your abilities. Aim high. That is my message for you tonight.

WILL: Good evening. I greet you. I am your [[teacher]], Will, who [[loves]] you. At [[the Father]]'s request, by [[Michael]]'s [[design]], according to the [[Melchizedek]], I am your teacher and I have [[enjoyed]] the time that we have spent [[together]]. You have raised a number of [[questions]] this evening that I will address in the beginning. If it is all right, I will deal with a number of [[topics]] at once. Eric has raised in the past concerns about the remark made by [[Rayson]] about a teacher serving for two years only and then the [[group]] [[abandoned]] and the teacher reassigned. I will tell you that I will be your [[teacher]] for the foreseeable [[future]]. This group will meet for years. This group will not be disbanded. People will come and go, but the core of this [[group]] will not [[change]]. We will all [[grow]] and develop and live the life that we now [[aspire]] to. Your assignments and your [[missions]] will change according to the [[developments]] that take place in your [[spiritual]] life, but as far as can be seen into the [[future]], we will be [[together]]. We would not turn our backs on you. We have just begun. Our [[friendship]] has just passed the [[formulation]] [[stage]]. It would be silly to break off [[contact]]. We hope to develop [[personal]], [[individual]] [[communication]] with each of you, through one spirit minister or another, according to your [[abilities]]. Aim high. That is my [[message]] for you tonight.

There are spirit ministers assigned as teachers all over your world. There are thousands of humans under individual instruction. Some follow the leading of their indwelling Adjuster, others are instructed by external spirit ministers. Fewer yet follow the ethical leadings of their society. There is a line that will be crossed by some which invalidates the celestial assistance of which they receive. It is possible for humans to perform miracles utilizing celestial assistance even though works and signs are disfavored. These works and signs performed by the human are tolerated. They are not contaminative of the message which we seek to relate to the common people. They are distracting and we think that each of you has seen the potential for error which exists whenever signs and works are employed. The toleration is practice in the celestial administration of these programs, yet there is a line of demarkation. If the line is crossed, both the participating human and spirit guides instantly know that the message has indeed become terminated and, at that point, the assistance will be broken off. There is a line of demarkation for people who represent the teachings of the spirit ministers and call themselves teachers. This, too, is tolerated for a human to call himself a teacher. Indeed, we have even suggested that certain of you shall become teachers. Looked at in one way, it becomes a matter of labeling, but the essential ingredient is the purpose for which these acts are undertaken. If they benefit the people, it will be tolerated withstanding some potential or experiential harms which are incurred as a result and there are many teachings, many leadings and degrees of validity among all. For me to become involved in saying, this one in genuine, that one is not so genuine, a third is less yet genuine quickly descends into an exercise of classification of the world when in fact each of the situations is changing moment by moment. The most interesting things for the celestials in dealing with humans is that they are always pushing the limits. Humans push the celestials hard. The celestials' instructions are to be tolerant. When we error, it is on the side of tolerance. That is our only guideline. As we have remarked before, you must analyze the spirit of the teachings and it will either fly or fall flat of its own accord. I don't mean to evade your question, but the Father's plan favors variety over conformity. It appears to be a policy.

Closer to home, this group progresses. We are most pleased. It is good to have all gathered together again. It makes us feel that the circle is complete. I greet you all in the Father's name and I love you as my companions, not only as my students making graphic progress, clambering up the slope. I commend you. Your daily activities show a growing appreciation for the message which we humbly bring to you week by week. Better yet, I am gratified to see that you follow some of the suggestions which we place in your minds from time to time during your daily activities. You act on the opportunities which have been arranged with your earthly brothers and sisters by other ministers working through those people. It is a good, good sign. The day will come when our instruction is not so formalized. The day will come when you have reached the end of the formal instruction which is presently under development. The day will come when you turn to us for advice, for decisions, but mostly, for strength to perform according to your own conviction and your own understanding. In that sense then, this instruction has an end, however our association will continue. I look forward to a long and productive relationship. The day will come when the only type of instruction that you are capable of receiving is so personalized as to be not particularly useful to your companions gathered here tonight. However, the results of your deeds will be freely shared and uplifting to all. We will blend into the area of action as opposed to instruction. How is that Vincent? I will have more to say upon this topic later.

Let's take a short break for Eric. Eric is feeling some physiologic discomfort. We will call back to order in a moment.

===='''''[[Light]]'''''====

The [[light]] of [[the Father]]'s [[love]] shines freely down from [[heaven]] and upon all of the [[creatures]] which inhabit your [[planet]]. They are not insensitive to [[the Father]]'s [[light]]. They thrive upon it, yet they know not from whence it comes. Once you all each merely [[reacted]] to the Father's light, now you know more. You know now that you are capable of reacting to that [[light]]. You know from which direction it arrives. You know that it has an [[effect]] upon your fellows. Please notice that [[the Father]]'s light shines equally upon your [[brothers and sisters]]. [[The Father]] works within and without. His [[love]] is [[shared]] freely with all. It is not for you to pick and choose who might be more or less a [[recipient]] to the Father's love and [[grace]]. You are not fit for such a task. By [[practical]] [[necessity]], you must presume that all are capable of [[responding]] to [[the Father]]'s [[light]] and to the Father's [[love]]. You are capable of [[discerning]] whether they [[react]] to it or by their fruits they shall be known. Look then to your own product and see that it in [[quality]] [[reflects]] the [[purity]] and [[generosity]] of [[the Father]]'s love so freely [[shared]] with you as with all other men. Those are my [[words]] of [[counsel]] for you tonight.

[[The Father]]'s [[light]] shines upon [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saints saints] and [[Sin|sinners]] alike. What will you do with the [[gifts]] of the Father? Well, the short answer is, you will [[honestly]] [[represent]] your [[understanding]] at the time of the [[event]]. We are each [[growing]] in our [[understanding]]. I am [[happy]] to see that you are all [[progressing]]. There are no laggers. Try to [[focus]] a little more [[awareness]] each day on the [[opportunities]] that are presented to you. You are not being tested, but you are being presented with [[opportunities]] to [[demonstrate]] your [[understanding]] such that it exists. There is no such thing as, how to put it, an insufficient level of [[appreciation]]. Everyone has an [[idea]] how [[the Father]] would like for them to [[react]]. That is what we wish you to act on. You do not need to [[think]] about it. You need to act. You worry too much about what kind of job you are doing. That puts distance between you and the other [[person]] and, by [[definition]], that puts distance between you and [[the Father]]. The Father is operating through that fellow human just as He is attempting to operate through you. He is trying to bring [[Thought Adjuster|His spirit]] into [[force]] and to [[vitality]] and to direct [[contact]] and all will benefit. So don't [[rationalize]] over much about what it is you might do, what you should do, what you could have done, just [[act]]. It is an [[irony]] that in your [[language]] the closest [[expression]] is, try to be [[spontaneous]]. If you were trying, it could not be spontaneous. Just [[act]]. Following the [[leading]]. It is [[subtle]]. You can feel your [[Adjuster]] pulling you like a [[magnet]]. Just [[act]]. Make the [[contact]]. Drop the [[defenses]]. Step forward. That act of [[trust]] will [[inspire]] a mutual [[reaction]] and then things can happen. You will be [[surprised]]. We are certain you will [[learn]] to like it.

That is all I have to say. We will meet again next week and [[discuss]] some things. Let's meet and discuss the [[events]], the people that we have met. The [[chances]] that we took. These will be fit [[topics]] for our meeting. [[God]] [[bless]] you and keep you. He holds us in His hands. He hung the [[stars]]. He made His light shine upon each of us. [[Shalom]].
