There are only two beings who share the Father's integrity to "the same infinite extent". Nevertheless all beings are subject to the rule of law, even the Father who himself cannot do the ungodlike.

Dear Rob,
My thoughts about your post are qualified as follows in all due respect to your contributions to the Teaching Mission:
First - I do not have the history of involvement or contribution in the TM that you have.
Secondly - I do not have the history of relationships with the range of personalities involved in the TM that you have.
Thirdly - what I do have in common with you is a profound commitment to the TM and making my will that of the Father's.
I find your public critique of "Ron Besser's recent work" to be an attempt to trivialize and dismiss his work. I am one of the new TR's who is learning under his guidance among others. Rather than feeling dependent on him and thereby being enabled to avoid adjusting to the progressive struggles of living, my experience is quite the opposite. While working under his guidance, I have confronted my lingering tendencies to avoid some of such struggles. I do observe that there are some individuals who might fit your portrayal of dependency/avoidance who are involved in T/R'ing and other spiritual endeavors, but I daresay that such individuals are evident everywhere and I propose that it is not anyone's place to make an evaluative or classification judgment of them.
I try to discern the spiritual, (or at least the messages that can be spiritized) meaning/value of any transmission on Ron's or any other site. I notice and do not distract myself with the exactness of any time/space coordinates that come through transmissions. That disposition may seem like a form of denial. However I always search for the spiritual message. For example, in your selection from Ron's transmissions there was also a beautiful "prayer" for communing with one's thought adjuster. That's what I remember from the Paul message.
I do not simply seek to challenge you. I share with you the fullest discernment of Truth, Beauty, and Goodness.
Respectfully submitted,
Steven Murphy
