Changes

I don't know whether I should [[speak]] about loving one another that I've learned from this [[group]] and the [[Teaching Mission]] and reading the [[Urantia Book]]. Or, should I stay out of that [[controversy]] and continue in the [[individual]] way that I can [[express]] [[love]] to other people and just pray that they would stop making [[judgments]]. Last time, you gave such a [[wonderful]] lesson about our [[attitudes]] towards people who are [[criminals]] and in [[prison]], and those who have done heinous things. I don't know how I can best serve all the people there in order to [[express]] [[God]]'s love. I don't know how to view the whole [[homosexual]] issue. There's just such bias, [[prejudice]], and [[hatred]] towards homosexuals.

TARKAS: I would certainly not make a harsh [[judgment]] against the [[attitudes]] of your church [[friends]]. No more than you would make judgments about people because of their [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_orientation sexual orientation]. [[Judgment]] should not be part of the [[equation]].

However, I would recommend that you [[communicate]] with people in your [[church]] by [[words]], [[deeds]], and example, not in a judgmental [[manner]] but truly [[expressing]] the [[thought]] that [[Jesus]] loved everyone, no matter their [[position]] or [[wealth]], or their degradation from [[prostitution]] or [[violence]]. And so if Jesus did not judge these people but only sought to [[embrace]] them and give them [[love]] and [[share]] with them their potential for [[salvation]] through the [[heavenly Father]], then that is what you should do with people whose [[behavior]] does not agree with your own.

HUMAN: Tarkas, two weeks ago a [[light]] [[force]] came over the Greater [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cincinnati Cincinnati] area. Can you tell us what we need to do with the [[energy]] that was brought in?

TARKAS: I can say to you that this [[energy]] is very real and the changes going on are very real. Some [[circuits]] are being opened, some are being introduced, many are being realigned. With all of this, which is quite [[complicated]] from the [[mortal]] [[point of view]], the [[opportunity]] grows ever larger for you to tap into this higher level of [[consciousness]] which we all seek and which I [[trust]] you will all [[receive]] in large measure in the years to come.
