What we bring to the world is [[hope]], hope from many that there will be an expansion, a [[growth]] of understanding, [[understanding]] in [[love]], in [[the Father]]'s way. This is most [[gratifying]] to see you gathered today in [[fellowship]], [[sharing]] your [[love]], your hope, your understanding with those around you. Not to be afraid to reach out and share yourself, your dreams, your thoughts. The steps are being climbed slowly but progressively for all of you. I am Elyon your guide, and I see so much potential within this room. The possibilities for the light to shine to so many different people. This is your quest this week: To go out, to share, to be open, to let your light shine to the God in everyone else's heart. Be mindful not to scare with too much but take the chances to give the love that you know to those who may not expect it. And then the hope, the light, may be extended to them and to those that they know. There is no great and secret detailed mission of vital importance. It is the inter- communication, the sharing the feelings you have, the reaching out. Don't be afraid to say that you love life and that things will get better, for as more and more people begin to give out this love and this hope for better things, the more people that are down in despair and futility, the more that these people may believe that it is actually possible for things to get better. Make it your purpose to give love, to see the ways that you can create positive circumstances. To stop and to communicate with one out of the norm is a wonderful surprise to their day. To give aid to someone broke down on the side of the road, both literally and figuratively, is the first step towards repair. To share your message, to be willing to hear another's word, to be tolerant, to be open; these are all the goals for attainment. You already know to reach inside to your Father, so do this and find the time to make it possible. The understanding will come. And today I say branch out that love that is overtaking you. Find the ways to let it flow. I am sure by knowing you that you will make this happen. I would open now for any questions. Welcome.

This is your [[quest]] this week: To go out, to [[share]], to be open, to let your light shine to the [[God]] in everyone else's [[heart]].

Welcome.

Thank you for being here. I'd like to state a little about how I've been [[feeling]]. I find the [[physical]] world very overwhelming. It's hard for me to back away. My [[priority]] is to be [[focused]] on [[God]] but it's hard for me to get focused on my [[priorities]]. Seems like the physical world intrudes such that it's all I [[think]] of. Sometimes I feel sad, but I feel okay.

My priority is to be focused on God but it's hard for me to get focused on my priorities. Seems like the physical world intrudes such that it's all I think of. Sometimes I feel sad, but I feel okay.

Elyon: Sad, but [[good]]? Seems somewhat [[contradictory]]. You should [[realize]] the [[love]] you have both from the [[spiritual]] sense and from those around you. This should be your key for [[satisfaction]]. Your [[priorities]] are just that. Priorities. [[Focus]] on what you want to do. [[Visualize]] the steps, not the last step but the first step, to make it happen. Don't let the [[pressures]] bear you down. They are just [[barriers]] to be stepped over. Where does your sadness stem from?

It feels like I'm so inadequate for the [[things]] that are laid out before me.

Elyon: Then this brings [[confusion]] to me. I know your [[potential]] and I see your [[growth]]. The entire thrust of my [[mission]] is to let you know that you cannot be inadequate to [[the Father]] for He lives within you. You give so much [[hope]] to [[this mission]]. We've worked hard to bring you to it. So if time restraints have slowed you somewhat from your [[desires]], this means little to [[eternity]] and your love is still where it should be. So brighten up. (group [[laughter]]) This is not so rough. [[Focus]] your energy. Turn away the excess, and keep on keeping on. This is what I would say to you, friend.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thanks, Elyon. I think we all needed that message. I think of our group doing great things on a great mission and go out and spread the word. Your lessons are on love and understanding and honesty and trustfulness, things we need for personal growth. Are you talking the little things we do like loving a person who is unlovable or buying the child a new pair of shoes, whatever, extending our hand to the many wants the human race has here? Are we on this mission day to day to be loving and kind or are we going to go on some great, exciting mission?

Elyon: The undying question. I guess I will have to make you [[wonder]] some more for I cannot answer that at this time. Your [[mission]] is most definitely a day by day mission of [[outreach]]. As you [[dedicate]] your [[self]] to [[the Father]]'s will you must know that this means [[service]], serving the Father's [[purpose]] in any way you can. If it means to stop and let someone go before you, then that is also [[selflessness]]. If it means to just [[love]] with [[tolerance]] for that is also selflessness. To be open to the [[ideas]] that others have, to see their [[purpose]] and to [[appreciate]] their want.

To be open to the ideas that others have, to see their purpose and to appreciate their want.

By this [[spiritual growth]] we speak of and that we continually try to bring you to, this [[growth]] brings your outer [[assuredness]], brings your [[purpose]] or fire to the forefront. As you [[grow]] in [[understanding]] of [[the Father]], as you learn within, not just in a [[mental]] way but to [[experience]] and know within as a learned [[behavior]] the love and the [[caring]], then these traits of [[growth]] that come to you will naturally [[flow]] to others. This begins your [[outreach]] of [[love]].

Specific [[mission]], I cannot tell you it won't happen. With your willingness to [[cooperate]], because with [[dedication]] to [[the Father]] you have put [[self]] aside to some extent, if a need were to arise of some [[nature]], then if you personally or as a [[group]] could fulfill that need, then it could be asked if you want to do this. This is not foreseen at this [[time]]. You do have a [[purpose]] personally and together but this is general: to bring [[love]].

Does this answer you? #2: Yes, it does. Thank you.

Does this answer you? #2: Yes, it does. Thank you.

Elyon, I'd like to comment on what you said. I'm reminded of how the Master said that if any comes saying the kingdom is here or the kingdom is over there not to listen to them, that the kingdom is within. I'm reminded to tell this to myself when I wonder what the mission will bring. At this time I'm reminded of a letter from a friend in California saying: Have you heard about the Melchizedek school they're bringing? You'll have to run real hard to beat me to the door! I guess I should step aside and let him go first to practice selflessness. I anticipate that we are in training and growing and laying the foundations that are very important towards a function in the sense of the mission. If we now knew what the object of the mission is, we would anticipate that without laying the necessary groundwork for our ability to function well. Please elaborate on that.

Elyon: There is always a [[course]] that must be followed. The [[glory]] cannot be [[attained]] by taking just the final step. [[Preparation]], [[growth]] lead further up the stepladder so this is why you work to [[develop]] your own [[understanding]] now. It is all in [[anticipation]] of [[future]] [[attainment]]. But the [[patience]] is required in growth to realize that you have not yet learned how to take the final step. You must go with each [[understanding]], with each [[insight]], with all the knowingness to take the next step, not the last step. And this is why we [[prepare]]. Preparation decreases the [[chance]] for [[failure]]. By learning you see the ways to make things happen, they become a part of you. Then you can move on.

You [[speak]] of this [[Melchizedek Schools|school by the Melchizedek]] to run to. But if you run too far you might leave the classroom. For it is [[wise]] to [[understand]] that as a servant of [[Michael]] and therefore [[Machiventa]] as well, that your [[school]], your classroom is here. And for all [[intents]] and [[purposes]] this school is building everyday and is already up and running. So many times people see the [[physical]] aspects of a [[statement]]. But it must be realized that ever and always we will speak in terms of the [[spiritual]]. So [[listen]], [[understand]] and [[grow]] to the next step.

Does this answer you?

Does this answer you?

Yes, thank you.

Yes, thank you.

Elyon: You are welcome. #3: The teacher Oren in Napperville, Illinois has announced that there will be this visualization experiment coming next Saturday. Some of the people in our group as you are no doubt aware have been curious about this event and would like to in some way participate with you and with the other teachers in this experiment. Could you please comment on that and particularly what time of day we should do this?

Elyon: I see and note your [[desire]] but I decline to comment on this.

It's hard for me all the [[talk]] about [[future]] [[missions]], [[anticipating]] the future. I like the talk you gave about [[focusing]] on the week and what we could do here and now. I also have trouble with [[vague]] answers. A simple yes or no I can relate to better. "I decline to comment." and...

Elyon: Can I say something?

Sure.

Sure.

Elyon: Because of an agreement that I have made...

Elyon: Because of an [[agreement]] that I have made...

With who?

With who?

Elyon: (the TR) This reason is why I cannot speak on this matter. You must be open to the possibilities in this happening. It is a localized event. And as I also spoke of earlier, the mission is no grand specific design. It is a way of identifying in ongoing outreach. And this is the purpose. Just to bring people to the growth within themselves, which in itself brings them the courage to share with others. And as for vague answers, I would apologize. Sometimes I cannot be specific.

Through Machiventa, but as well through Michael. I could just say no, but I sense sometimes that that would seem impersonal or as an admonishment which I would not want to do. And also as many could attest, I seem to drag things out so I'll be quiet.

asked about whose [[authority]] Elyon was under.)

Elyon, I'd like to say in regards to this concept of a mission, I feel like I have to do a lot of work on myself before I can do any good for just about anyone else, I have a hard time dealing with some of the people I come in contact with and expressing the love I'd like to express to people. If I'm going to serve God I'll have to first take care of myself.

My impression about the mission is . .. I'm reminded of how Jesus was always trying to tone the apostles down. They kept thinking something grand and glorious was in store for them in working with Jesus. We should keep in mind that we have those same tendencies that the apostles had. To realize that "the kingdom is here, the kingdom is there, no it is within." Well, the school is here, the school is there, well, the school is probably primarily within. And within our personal sphere of reference the school is the people we run into, we are all in school together. My impression of the mission is that we all pretty much know what is going on and we just have to get better at it.

Elyon: Very well said. I [[agree]].

Elyon: Thank you for your comments. And by your understanding, I would grade you as an A. (Group laugh.)

Question: Do you feel like an apostle?

Question: Do you feel like an [[apostle]]?

Yeah, I guess I do. The apostles were told by Jesus to go out and tell people the good news and I think he's told all of us the same thing. We're not living physically with him but we're still being taught by him and yeah, I do. We have our instructions from Jesus and that's the definition of apostles.

Elyon: Very good. An apostle is one who is willing through their dedication to do whatever is necessary to bring the love of God and the truth to those around them, regardless of self. So when you identify with the apostles, you should realize as well that you have this same purpose within you all that are willing.

Would there be any more questions?

Would there be any more [[questions]]?

What is this truth that we should be seeking to teach to other people? The best that I can offer is that the spirit of God lives within them. Is that the truth that we should be teaching?

What is this [[truth]] that we should be seeking to teach to other people? The best that I can offer is that the [[Thought Adjuster|spirit of God]] lives within them. Is that the truth that we should be teaching?

Elyon: Yes. That is the highest concept you can offer. To expound further that you are all children of this same God regardless of name. That by faith you shall attain Him in your life and to spread the love which is the transforming power of God. You may share this in a wide variety of ways but it should always be with these few truths in mind.
