Changes

Every one of you has [[experience]]d the [[regret]] that follows behind the [[realization]] of [[error]], all within the larger [[context]] of the [[perception]] of what is true and real and how the error further hindered the advancement of [[truth]]. You have received instruction from many avenues encouraging you to recognize and overcome unnecessary [[guilt]] or regrets from past wrongs. All of you have experienced the [[love]] and close association of [[our Father]] after even having taken [[actions]] that you now realize were improper. You know the Father loves you unconditionally, seeks to minister to you continually, and will minister even more so during your errant episodes.

The [[midwayers]] have likewise experienced this as a [[collective]]. They have undergone great [[training]]. On most planets midwayers have a period of training that you could call [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boot_camp boot camp] where they can train under situations that are [[exercises]] prior to a true battle to gain the [[strength]] and the [[stamina]], the keenness and alertness, necessary to confront the hardship ahead. Here on [[Urantia]] this was suspended, and your close associates, the midwayers, were faced with hitting the field with little or no training. Today they have emerged with [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purple_hearts purple hearts], victorious in seeking not only the [[truth]] but the truth of rectification and the value of [[correction]] and reestablishment. They have also discovered the secret of [[Supreme]] advancement, that all [[things]] do work together for the [[good]] to those who [[love]] [[God]].

Hold strong everlastingly to your [[faith]] and [[trust]] in the ministry and [[overcare]] of [[the Father]] of all and the manifold [[ministering spirits]] that stand in ever-ready state to be of [[assistance]]. There are more [[supernals]] present throughout this [[local universe]] than there are flesh and blood creatures. You are amply attended to. Trust these personalities as you would a handrail in your [[ascent]].

Gerdean: Elyon, I'm wondering about [[Beelzebub]]. Wasn't he a bit of a stinker? I appreciate what you said about [[midwayers]] being [[assimilated]] and having conviction. Others [[wonder]] about this, too. If someone built a rehabilitation center in one's [[neighborhood]], it's a concern.

Elyon (Jonathan): I [[understand]]. I am [[sympathetic]] to your concerns as I have witnessed several rebellious realms in [[Nebadon]], and have seen the effects, both good and deleterious. Beelzebub did promote and perpetuate much errantry. If I may put it into a bigger [[perspective]], [[Lucifer]] and [[Satan]] undertook far more [[nefarious]] schemes than Beelzebub had even the [[power]] to accomplish. Beelzebub falls more in the category of a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juvenile_delinquent juvenile delinquent] than a professional [[criminal]]. His deviancy over the long term has been easier to [[counsel]] and to rehabilitate. You are receiving [[word]] that midwayers are being reinstated. You have long beforehand received word that [[Lucifer]] had not. Therefore ones like Beelzebub ought to be given the [[chance]] to reestablish standing, [[forgiveness]], as in the [[The prodigal son|parable of the prodigal]].

One other addition, it is simple for a child to [[trust]] a parent; it is simple for each of you to trust [[Michael]], but there is a depth of [[faith]] and [[goodness]] which comes about in learning to trust one who is re-establishing and rehabilitating new and old [[behavior]]s.

[[Goodness]] will be recognizable, and far be it from me to circumvent [[free will]], but it is the [[hope]] of all [[Satania]] that evil will not be present in the malicious forms, as long ago. There is [[compassion]] that can be granted to one who led the [[midwayers]], for this individual is likewise concerned over [[reputation]]. It is hard to shake one's [[past]]. If [[Van]] can express [[love]] and care for [[Beelzebub]], then it is possible for any one of you, for each of you carries a common [[origin]] that is ancestral to your [[difference]]s of [[being]].

Let me add one other [[observation]], and that is that this midwayer restitution is not completely smooth. Let me give example. Among your countries, for instance, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germany Germany] and your [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russia Russian] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post-Soviet_states post-soviet continent], the [[political]] [[change]]s there were [[accepted]] by some and not by others. There are still those in the eastern and communist German boundary that wish the old order was still in place. Likewise there are those who [[sympathize]] with the soviet way of governing. Yet these countries have stepped forward toward the further [[evolution]] of [[government]] and care for peoples. As all trainees must do, each [[midwayer]] will receive new assignment. As verification of readiness is observed they will not be unleashed en masse. Some [[reconciliation]] is still in need, after all, this has been several hundred years of time. Now that [[21:3 Local Universe Sovereignty|Michael is sovereign]], now that your [[planet]] is governed with the sagacity of [[Nebadon]], with [[Salvington]]'s methods, you can be assured that the havoc of long ago will not repeat itself, and that there is more to be concerned about on the streets of your own cities than the return of a rehabilitated [[midwayer]].
