Topic: Nature of Dispensations

 

JarEl: TR, George. Good evening, it is I, your teacher JarEl. It is good to be here tonight. Welcome to those who come here on a regular basis and to those who are here for the first time. It was very interesting to hear your discussion you were having. It was not my intention to create any sort of controversy in the group. Tonight we shall focus on the love of God. The amount of it that He graces upon you everyday and the constant caring that He gives you. God will not abandon you. He is constantly there, willing to advice you, willing to help you, willing that you reach some sort of happiness in your lives. The only reason that He gives you challenges in life is that you may be happy one day. These challenges are nothing more than a test put in your way, to help mold you, to help to give character to your soul. Once your character has been built, you will be in a better position to appreciate the many things that God gives to you. Perhaps at this moment you are not seeing all the things He has given you. It takes patience and practice to do so.

Only the mature spiritual being is capable of seeing all the graces and all the things that God gives you. Only a mature spiritual being can appreciate to the fullest, Gods love. That is not to say that you are not capable of doing so, you are. But, perhaps in a limited way, because He loves you so much, you don’t see how much He loves you. It is for you to realize that His love is far reaching, that His love is all encompassing. This love is forever there and shall forever be there, take it, use it. He is there at your service. Even though He is your Father, even though He is your Creator, He still is there, humbling Himself before you to serve you. It is not for us to be ungrateful to this loving Father. It is for us to acknowledge His love and to be guided by His love so that one day we may face Him and love Him and be embraced by His all encompassing hands, encompassing arms, all encompassing love. The way God loves you is like a Father and like a Father, He loves his children so much that He would do anything to see them happy.

Benson: TR, Steve. Thank you JarEl. It is I Benson. Thank you for a very, very beautiful stated discourse on the Fathers love. There is nothing I can add to what you said, it was so complete. Complete like the Fathers love itself, it is absolute in all the Universes. I wish to set to rest some uneasiness on the discussion that happened before all of you went into the silence tonight. I may add that Hals words and cautions to watch our communications applies to this as well. Hence to the transcriber of this document, the decision to abridge portions of the communications that may be especially personal to members of the group or even which may possibly lead to misunderstanding, debate or controversy; the decision to edit or abridge them, is a prudent and wise choice.

  However I will comment on the nature of dispensations. Yes a dispensational resurrection occurred on Michaels two thousandth birthday. We do not know for sure but we believe that this is the last dispensational resurrection that will occur on this planet before the new age. This belief comes from Michaels personal directive. Yes, quarantined circuits are no longer quarantined. Circuits are being restored and reconstructed. However the general rule, regardless of the fact that a new type of dispensation did occur about seven years ago on your world, still holds true in all of the Universe with the exception being, in this case applicable to Urantia. In general the rule still holds, however permission has been granted by the Ancients of Days to allow some limited communication by loved ones to individuals on your world who have at least reached the third circle of cosmic consciousness after the year 1994 as you reckon time. That is all I will say on this subject.

And now I wish to make a comment on your wonderful weekend of worship which occurred last weekend. This truly was the type of activity that creates great joy in all of us to observe when it happens among the members of the teaching mission group. It was truly a worthy celebration, for unknown to most of you, upon the completion of that weekend, many of you did not realize that you had been elevated to a much more competent level of spiritual connection in your communications abilities. You are truly Michael’s new disciples for this age. Many of his original disciples now sit on the Counsel of Twenty-four and shared the same joy and experience so recently felt. Almost all of you have changed dramatically and have, since the day you left this house, with such joy in your heart, begun to minister to ordinary people in your everyday lives. Some of you have been doing this before but now have expanded your ministerial efforts. The individuals whose lives you have touched will be forever changed as well. And this positive new way of truth, goodness and beauty will generate a brilliant ray of hope that all the world will eventually see. Prayers and the love and the support of a vast range of cosmic and celestial ministers are with you and on your side. Praise to God through His Son and through His sons. It is a wholly appropriate response, which creates a bonding, and a joy, which is shared by all of us whether we be material or entirely spiritual. Until we meet again. I say shalom. Lucio: TR, George. Good evening, it is Lucio, Georges personal teacher. Thank you for allowing me to address you tonight. It is very good to be here among such highly spiritual and enlightened fellows. I look forward to every time we see each other. Although you can not see me,

I can see you. I would like to talk to you about relationships tonight. Everyone here certainly has some experience with relationships. What I would like to address with you tonight is how responsible you are with your relationships. Ask yourself a question, is your relationship something that you value or something that you despise or something you just dont care about? How much energy and effort do you put into a relationship? Are you responsible enough to have a relationship to begin with? Sometimes we get into relationships without even thinking. Pretty soon we have no responsibility over it because we lack the relationship skills.

JarEl: TR, George. Good even, this is JarEl. Are there any questions here tonight?

Chris: Yes, I wondering how we deal with controversy. I am concerned about how we decide what goes in our . ..what’s personal and what is not? How do we confront Christian ideas that differ from The Urantia Book? Is it wrong to challenge these people to learn new ideas?

Nel: JarEl, will you give us some direction in this group, is there something new there has been talk from the other teachers about a new face for the teaching mission. Is there something in store for this group or for each of us?

JarEl: I would certainly say as individuals, you all have your own destiny, your own mission. As a group, you still need a lot more work in collaborating to take on any project. You have done very well, so far. You have come a long very well spiritually. And during your last weekend retreat, you’ve grown a lot. I am afraid that there is not much direction I can give you as a group, other than the direction that you have already taken. The reason I am without any sort of direction, is that I want to allow you to make your own decisions. I want to allow you to take on your own projects and chart your own courses. I am just here as a guide, not as a director. I am a teacher, not a tyrant. Therefore it is important that you all find your own courses. It is not that you are alone in this mission, you are very much guided and helped. In fact any project that you undertake shall be very much appreciated, rewarded, urged and supported. We welcome any ideas from the group. But ultimately it is the groups choice as to what direction you want to take tonight. As a group you become an entity. As an entity you are very powerful in your decision- making, because you get a lot done that way. As individuals you are still powerful but in a limited fashion. As you come here together you have your teaching mission or you have your study group. You are creating a powerful dynamic for each of you gives one another energy and knowledge. Each of you have different opinions that adds to the group. Therefore, with all of your different opinions and all of your individual minds you are more than capable of directing your own entity. I am part of this entity in only an advisory roll; not as a directing roll. If you want my advice, certainly there is much to do in the world. There is much need out there for a group such as here in Arcadia. As an entity you are capable of doing great things. It is up to the individuals on how much contribution he is willing to give to the entity. The need out there is great. There is much of course, I wouldn’t know where to begin to advise you. I can point you in any direction and in every direction that I would point you in - there would be a need. Ultimately the best I can do is not to tell you where to go. Leave it up to you to figure it out. Ask God and He will back you, He will show you. He has much need for you and all you have to do is ask God what is Your Will and I will do it. It is as simple as that. Now if the group wants to do that as a group and ask God what His Will is . . . and certainly He will give you an answer. And it will be a very clear answer. For there are many people here who have received messages from God and are capable of understanding His Will. But I see this group as taking on your own individual projects. And I see them flowering in their own individual projects and in this way the group is more diverse. Because they all add to each one of your experiences. They all bring into the group their own experiences. They are dealing with their own projects. So I guess I ultimately have no direction to give to you, but to ask the Father.

Lucille: JarEl, when we originally started we wondered where the people would come from and he said just meet and people would come. But I understand from other teachers... we have not enlarged our group much lately but its certainly a lot more close-knit. How do we go about starting new groups?

JarEl: Thank you Lucille. One last thing I would like to tell all of you, is to trust one another. Trust in your intentions. Trust in the love that the other person has for you. That is all. If there are no more questions, I bid you farewell.
