Changes

BERTRAND: If the [[Melchizedeks]] were to choose to [[manifest]] themselves materially, their [[presence]] would be known. They would certainly make their [[presence]] known. We are not privy to all the [[decisions]] that are made at that high level. Many times, we see them--the outworking of those [[decisions]]--just the same as you would. I am just a [[teacher]]. There are currently three [[Melchizedeks]] in residence. [[Machiventa]] is involved with the [[Teaching Mission]]. The other two [[Melchizedeks]] are involved in other matters. They are not [[physical]] in their [[appearance]], and from my [[understanding]] there is no [[immediate]] plan for that to occur. But, again, let me tell you that [[changes]] in their activities can come without our [[knowledge]]. We will know, when you know. Does that answer your question?

STUDENT: Bertrand, in the [[Ham]] tape that . . . [we] [[listened]] to on our way [[home]] from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yosemite_National_Park Yosemite] yesterday, somebody asked the [[question]] about something they heard on the [[radio]]. And that was other people reporting that [[teachers]] had come to them. Well is it possible for teachers to come to people on [[Urantia]] that are not part of your [[mission]], to other [[groups]], or are you the only [[Teacher Corps|teaching corps]], the only real one? Because the answer [[Ham]] gave sounded like, now that the [[circuits]] were open, there could be lots of [[different]] things happening. What I'm asking I guess the most is, does your [[teaching mission]] [[coordinate]] all the [[contacts]], or could they be independent of your mission?

BERTRAND: As the [[process]] has [[progressed]] with the [[Teaching Mission]], we are attempting to [[initiate]] contact with a myriad of [[individuals]] throughout the world. It is definitely a [[possibility]] that those individuals have been contacted by the [[Teaching Mission]]. As I believe [[Ham]] has mentioned earlier, we are attempting to establish teaching [[groups]], like this, both within the [[students]] of The [[Urantia Book]], and without. With the establishment of the [[circuits]]... being reestablished rather, many other [[possibilities]] have arisen. It would be difficult for me to comment individually on those [[events]], but just to mention that it is possible. We are attempting to establish teaching [[groups]] worldwide, this is a worldwide mission. So it would not be unusual for those occurrences to be happening. It is definitely within the teaching [[plan]].

STUDENT: Well for instance, apparently in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquarian_Concepts_Community Sedona] there is a person who claims that they are a [[transmitter-receiver]] for [[Gabriel]]. I guess the core of my question is are all these instances [[authentic]] and is there some kind of [[coordination]] by [[Ham]] or somebody of all these various ones or are there a lot [[individual]] missions?

BERTRAND: Yes, indeed, these are [[coordinated]]. All [[contacts]] are under strict [[coordination]]. The only way for you, as a [[mortal]], to determine whether or not one of these contacts is as you say "for real", is to [[judge]] it by its fruits and your own [[faith]] and your own [[knowledge]] of what [[truth]] is. At this time, [[Gabriel]] is not [[transmitting]] through any individual on [[this planet]]. It would require his [[presence]]; he is the chief [[administrator]] of [[our universe]]; it would not be within his realm of [[activity]] to do so. . ...

BERTRAND: At this time, we still believe, through [[Machiventa]] [[Melchizedek]], that [[Gabriel]] will be present at each of the [[celebrations]] and [[Remembrance Supper]]s on Jesus' birthday, 21 August. More than that I can not say at this time.

STUDENT: I wanted to ask you, about something that is kind of a funny peculiar thing. I wanted to ask you about [http://www.powerprofiles.com/profile/00005147145882/SONARINGTON+CORPORATION-WOODS+CROSS-UT# Sonarington Corporation]. In the early [[Ham]] [[transcripts]] it was mentioned as a place, possibly, where [[Christ]] [[Michael]] would reside when he came to the [[planet]]. We've now sort of heard that it would maybe be an [[administrative]] [[center]] and that [[Abraham]] had told someone in Utah that it would be a good [[idea]]. Do you know anything about it that might [[clarify]] the whole issue for us?

BERTRAND: It has been [[discussed]] that at some point in the [[future]] an [[earth]] [[headquarters]] for the [[dissemination]] of [[knowledge]] of the teaching [[regime]] may be [[necessary]], more or less an [[administrative]] center. At this time, it is not seen to be [[necessary]] and there are no current plans to make it a [[reality]] in the near [[future]]. But, yes indeed, it is in the [[plan]] and it has been [[discussed]] several times. . . . .
