Jessina (Bill): My greetings to you all. I am Jessina, a visiting teacher offered a chance to address you this evening on the subject of celestial artisanship. Because of your commitment as individuals to the Morontia life and your desire to express truth, beauty and goodness in your lives, you have qualified for assistance from celestial artisans.

===Lesson===
 
This is not an unusual undertaking, however, for throughout the ages we have assisted other talented people and we have allowed them to glimpse morontial truth and to hear the melodies of the spheres. You see, when you are willing to do the will of the First Source and Center, you thereby open up your soul to the interactional possibilities of all the celestial personalities which in fact surround you daily. In this world where Michael has bestowed himself, great honor is attached to the opportunity to assist in the enhancement of these correcting times. Therefore, we are using every channel, every opening which exists in the interface between human personality and celestial personalities. I have not come to this group to offer my services to you particularly, but I am in agreement with Bakim that all of you are eligible for more assistance than your minds can imagine.

Yes, some of you will wake up on Mansonia #1 and will curse that your life did not end—not you in this room-but some on Urantia may curse that their life continues. Well if they retain that hostile mood, they have the right to terminate their existence forever. But many more will be joyfully amazed that God is much more loving, much more fair, much larger in concept and reality, than the finest thoughts of the smartest theologians; and that you were not given these desires to accomplish and to fulfill yourself merely to have them die and fall to dust in your graves. No , they are real desires with real satisfactions. I thank you for listening to my passionate rendition and now Daniel and I will open the floor to your participation. Are there questions, comments? Please feel free.

===Dialogue===
 
Virginia: Teachers, I know that at times this has been touched upon, certainly there was specific reference to it by Minearisa, that some, when they wake up on the mansion worlds, will curse, as you have said and others will be pleasantly surprised. And I can't help but think of many friends that probably I can see on both sides of that experience. I guess my question is, those that would profess atheism here, what immediate new information that God is good (do they get)? They wake up. That's a lot for me. I am just wondering what can change their mind so that they see the God of love that we believe exists

For God the Supreme we have to do something, we have to become. Our potentials have to become actualized. That is our task. To serve the God of experience we have to share our experience with him. God the Supreme is really more like a mother. We are born in the womb of God the Supreme and we are her children. To throw in the towel, to commit cosmic suicide is a terrible insult to our mother. Be glad, as the Master told his disciples, that your names are written in heaven because you have chosen the grace, the love, and the fellowship journey to the Source of your life.

The hour has gone by quickly and we will now terminate our meeting. Aaron would like us to stand and hold hands while he pronounces a benediction.

Aaron (Bill): I am Aaron, your brother. As we hold hands recognizing our brotherhood and sisterhood, our common status as children of one God, I ask you each to lift up your souls and offer them again to the light of the love of God which can illumine every corner of them with life giving energy. Father of fathers Who dwells in light inaccessible in the glory of Your home in Paradise, we your children point our hearts towards You. We desire to learn all we can as we romp through Your universe of infinite potentials and find them expressed more and more completely in us. We know that we are a family and that we are needed each to the other, to be brother and sister. We know in this way we reflect Your magnificent love for You desired to create personalities that You could have communion with. Look down upon these my little brothers and sisters who have given of their time tonight to be here, and in Your looking let them turn their eyes to see that Your face of love gazes without reservation upon each one. And now send them forth with joy and lightness to do the work which You desire of them even as did Jesus our Sovereign pray: "Nevertheless not what I desire, but Your will be done." So be it. Amen.
