Prolotheos: “Before [[Urantia]] is ushered into the era of [[Light and Life]], it is necessary to create a real Human [[Brotherhood]] on your planet. [[Jesus of Nazareth]] called this the Human Brotherhood of the “[[Kingdom of God]]” for the lack of a better term for the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_history#Roman_rule_in_the_land_of_Israel_.2863_BCE_.E2.80.93_324_CE.29 Jews of His time]. [[Paul, the Apostle|Paul, the apostle]], mistakenly called it “the [[Church]]” or “the Body of Christ” made up exclusively of [[Christians]], therefore not really a Human Brotherhood. The Human Brotherhood is both [[spiritual]] and [[social]] because first of all, it is made of human beings living in [[society]] and secondly, it is spiritual because it is based on the [[Fatherhood of God|Fatherhood of the One God]] — Father of All. Human interchange will help the Human Brotherhood become a Urantia [[reality]].
“[[Economic]] Interchange. [[Money]] is a great human drive. On it depends the [[material]] development of your [[civilization]] and for it people travel the world back and forth. Commercial trade has always being an effective civilizer: the [[desire]] for money will make human beings disregard cultural and religious [[differences]] — even adapt to them in order to maximize their [[profit]]. Merchant people are great missionaries, advertising their products, but also trading cultural and religious [[viewpoints]]. They not only brought their [[influences]], but they likewise were influenced. Commercial trade contributes to [[peace]] among nations.
“Cultural Interchange. [[Culture]] is the [[collective]] repository of artistic, scientific and social [[values]] of a given people or society. The interchange of these values will [[teach]] individuals of one [[nation]] to know and appreciate the culture of others. Most [[wars]] come from [[fear]], and [[ignorance]] is the mother of all fears. Mutual [[knowledge]] among nations will greatly diminish the [[suspicions]] of origin in ignorance. Your [[Nobel Prize|Nobel Awards]] are a [[noble]] initiative in this field, as are the periodic [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympic_games Olympic Games]. Much can still be done by the more advanced nations in the [[scientific]] field by their [[sharing]] progress in [[medicine]] and [[technology]] as well as in [[education]], through an increase in students’ exchange programs and international scholarships.
“Religious Interchange. The interchange in the [[religious]] arena is yet very poor on [[Urantia]]. It is in need of a major [[ecumenical]] stimulus — one that is beyond the [[organizational]] level, bringing actual [[cooperative]] service towards pressing human needs. Religious interchange will only [[become]] a [[reality]] on your planet when major religions acknowledge both the universal [[fatherhood of God]], and the brotherhood of all [[human beings]], based on the former. These sentiments are already present in humanity and in most of the [[individuals]] that have a religious inclination. They need, however, a unifying initiative through association with human beings — not through associations with organizations and [[institutions]].
“Therefore, my [[pupil]], concentrate your efforts on the religious aspect in [[disseminating]] your influence with others. Without [[proselytism]], however, but by showing no [[prejudice]] so you will inhibit the otherwise likely prejudice in others. [[Preach]] and live the universal aspects of [[the Gospel]] taught and lived by [[Jesus]] of Nazareth for that is lacking of the "-[[isms]]" that religions, [[sects]] and [[cults]] advocate. No [[change]] will happen overnight. Social and religious changes will not advance at the [[pace]] of technology in your world, although it has been faster since the [[Renaissance]]. [[Evolution]] also rules these aspects of human life. And evolution, although it is tremendously [[efficient]], unceremoniously takes its time.

“I am Prolotheos, your Teacher and Tutor on High. Peace be with you all.”
