Teacher Prolotheos.
Subject: “Things to Know about Evil”
Message Received by Valdir Soares.
Prolotheos: “Evil is exceedingly bewildering for human beings on Urantia. Most of you conceive of evil as being the opposite of God, and you wonder how evil and God can co-exist. Such a contrasting view is understandable — God, being your highest value of goodness — but it is incorrect. There is no comparison between the unique and infinite person that is God and anything else. Evil is not the opposite of good. Evil has its origin in creatures and is, in fact, a negation of the goodness of God revealed in His will. Therefore, evil has no bona fide origin. Consider these basic concepts about evil:
“Evil exists, but it is not enduring. Philosophically speaking, it could be said that evil exists, but is not ontologically real. It exists, but it lacks enduring reality substance because only that which primarily originates in God has bona fide reality and is endowed with enduring existence. Evil brings in itself the seed of rebellion against God and the consequent destruction of itself. Also, it could be said that evil is an aberration of the goodness of God. Goodness is expression of God's nature, but evil has no nature. Evil is devoid of substance. Evil is just ‘un-reality’ in progress — the non-being becoming unreal.
“To be effective, evil must be embraced. God created humans by granting them the faculty of will. Human free will actually is free and sovereign only to determine the individual’s eternal destiny: with God by choosing to do the will of God, or without God (as if never having been) by rejecting the will of God and having embraced the non-reality of evil. Evil, if left to itself, can be devastating and certainly will destroy even those that identify themselves with it. It may not always appear aesthetically ugly. It is, however, always eternally spiritually fatal, when ultimately embraced by the individual.
“Evil succumbs before faith. Faith in God is an invulnerable spiritual shield. Evil cannot ever penetrate it. Faith guards your mind and protects your soul. Faith is believing in the spiritual and in the eternal beyond your earthly life. Faith is desiring being with God accompanied by a sincere and constant striving for doing the will of God. Faith is not theological accuracy. It is about sincerity and the certainty of eternal values — even if these values may be misrepresented by the individual’s religious confession. Evil can never prevail over a believer that has chosen to wholeheartedly believe in his God.
“So, my pupil, do not fear evil. Your planet was tainted by evil with the Lucifer Rebellion and it is still encrusted in your civilization, through supposed sovereign and independent nations, preventing your world to act as one, as the human race is one, and instigating endless wars between the nations. However, God’s Bestowal Plan through His divine and Paradise Sons is functional on Urantia and will ultimately render ineffective these evil residues of the Lucifer Rebellion and it will ensue the enduring reality of the Kingdom of God promised by Jesus of Nazareth.

Teacher: Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “Among their People”
Message received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “Just as the Master sent his apostles to all corners of the earth, each one of you should do the same work for the establishment of the Kingdom of Heaven. However, in this era, it is not necessary for workers to travel to distant lands; each one can do this work right where they are, in their families, in their communities, in their cities, and among their own people.
Do not be shy in your efforts to bring a little peace and hope to the lives of your fellow beings. Do not offer dead words or enslaving doctrines to the thirsty souls; rather, offer them words of life that will free their creative faculties and powers of decision. Do not subject them to the authority of tradition; instead, help them experience maximum freedom to create their own destiny. Human beings will only achieve their highest potential if they are allowed to explore and find God personally and on their own terms. Each life is a path, and the avenues that lead to the Father are infinite in their variety of experiences.
Live a life that is an eloquent illustration of the truths you profess. Let the love of God be reflected by the way you treat your brothers and sisters, so that they may at least have a clue as to how the Creator can love them unconditionally, just as they are. Do for your fellow beings everything that the Father would do for them, for only in this way will they be prepared to understand that the universe is governed by a loving and understanding Father, who is accessible and actively seeks out his lost and confused children.
By living such a life of loving service to your fellow beings and progressive revelation of the Father to those around you, you will enjoy the greatest reward of eternity – the progressive approach to God and the growing understanding of His glory. This is the most sincere and deepest longing of the human soul that can only be fulfilled in eternity, but which you can already begin to satisfy in your life experience. This is how you become more and more like your heavenly Father and make His will a reality in your life.”

Urantia, December 6, 2006.
Teacher: The Beloved.
Subject: “Fear Is the Great Temptation.”
Message received by Lytske.
The Beloved: “Today we will delve a little deeper into the concept of ‘fear,’ and what it represents. There is fear everywhere; fear of growing old, fear of losing one’s health, fear of the future, and fear of losing loved ones. The list goes on and is seemingly endless. Each person harbors their personal known, unknown, and unreasoned fears, until they are confronted with them.
Fear is the great defrauder of inner peace, and it can attack your spiritual, emotional, and physical well-being. Illness results when it is allowed to get out of hand. Fear imprisons the real self, so the spiritual seed-soul neither grow nor does it flourish. Fear is evil. Fear is a temptation, preventing the human being from growing in trust and confidence in the over-care of the Creator God and in all celestial beings entrusted with their care.
Fear is the denial of the God-Fragment within. Fear causes depression and can make people contemplate and commit suicide. Fear is lack of courage to be honest with oneself – to be truly discerning about what is being feared. It is the long downward spiral into a dark damp pit, at the bottom of which lies paralysis and hopelessness of the human spirit.
The human spirit is designed and created to soar. God gives you life, faith, and trust as wings to practice with. You strengthen these wings with your growing confidence in the unconditional loving over-care of the Giver of all life.
Humans carry the seed of an abundantly rich soul within them, but very few realize that this great gift dwells within themselves, due to a lack of faith and by letting fear run rampant. Take hold of yourself, and turn within as soon as you feel fear holding you in its icy grip.
Know that I am here, always waiting to steady you and give you My peace. Say aloud: ‘All is well,’ and believe this.
Grow into a greater faith and trust in the goodness of God.”

Subject: “Reflections on the Gifts of Pentecost – Part 1.”
Message received by Anyas.
“These believers felt themselves suddenly translated into another world, a new existence of joy, power, and glory. The Master had told them the kingdom would come with power, and some of them thought they were beginning to discern what he meant.” [UB, 194:0.6]
Thought Adjuster: “While reading this narrative about the effect of the bestowal of Jesus’ Spirit of Truth on the day of Pentecost, the thought occurred to you that, because this Spirit endowment has kept giving of itself ever since, it is easy to take it for granted since you have not experienced as Jesus’ followers did, the experiential contrast between their downtrodden ‘before’ frame of mind and heart and the undeniable ‘after’ emotional and spiritual upliftment that bore witness to that marvelous outpour of the Spirit.
This endowment was of great magnitude as it was tremendously amplified by the concurrent bestowal of the Holy Spirit and the Divine Father Fragments — the Thought Adjusters.
It is up to you to revitalize these tremendous inner spiritual driving forces that you may have unconsciously relegated to an idle mode for lack of attention. These are the most significant contributors to your spiritual rebirth and ascension toward your next psychic circle of spiritual achievement.
They are an integral part of the glad tidings brought by Jesus into your world to inspire you to emulate his confident spiritual strides, spreading the great news of your liberation from spiritual bondage to a contagious state of spiritual thriving.”

Midwayer Chief, Bzutu (ABC-22).
Subject: “Soul Progress.”
Received by George Barnard.
Bzutu: “It is the case with almost every communication. We make our plans we don’t exactly know what to expect first up, and in this instance it is not that we are passing on information at too fast a rate, no. It is that your mind that is still racing. So we will take our time, and we will slow it down some more.
“The time prompts that we and you have learned to use so well are a marvelous new asset. For tens of thousands of years we did not have the right to contact you. We rarely had the right, or the opportunity, to subliminally impress matters onto human minds. All this has changed now. And I say we have not moved up a notch. We have moved up many, many notches to benefit you all.
“The ones temporarily left behind are our human brothers and sisters because too many rapid changes will unsettle you. You are not like us, indestructible and long lived. You are necessarily fearful of change, and in some instances you are afraid of improvements. When I say to you that you are left behind; the ways and behaviors of thousands of years are still with you today. You have your rules, your regulations, your ethics, your moral understandings, and yet compared to your Celestial Brothers and Sisters there remains much to be desired in your general behaviors.
“It is not okay to be jealous of another providing this is not expressed. Whether or not it is expressed is irrelevant, because it is soul-felt and understood by another at the soul level. The remedy is to count your personal blessings and talents, or make better use of them. It is not okay to be snobbish towards another of your species providing it is not shown. Whether it is shown or not is beside the point, because it is sensed by another. The cure for snobbery is a clear cut evaluation of one’s own shortcomings.
“There is so much that is in your minds that needs to be purified, that you need to give your thoughts, you need to give your attention to attain all-important soul progress. Whatever forward steps you can make toward the end goal of perfection in this short lifetime will count more than double for whatever more you will achieve on the Mansion Worlds. Greatness in men and women is a blessing in that they provide worthy examples to countless others. Many in our universes see mankind as an organism, the individual parts of which can and do create health for self and others.
“I suggest to you that you produce a greater awareness of your thinking patterns, of your attitudes, of your character flaws, and in doing so produce a betterment of these aspects I have just mentioned. A greater awareness is important because this universe will relentlessly teach you the lessons that you need to learn. You may well find yourself subject to the jealousies or criticisms, the snobbish behavior or the lack of care of another, and, likely because the universe is so well organized, this is meant to be a lesson for you. Are you also snubbing the ones that you should love, jealous of the person who is perceived to have more than you have, snobbish towards one who may not even enjoy your ease of living, critical of one whose very criticisms you may not be able to stand?
“There is much to be corrected on this world. We cannot impart this to you in a single generation, but look around you at the little ones, who from birth have had contact with us, now that we are actually capable of ‘plying our trade’ as we should. You will see the gems of minds they have acquired and now possess.
“This is your friend of many years. This is ABC-22. I thank you for your time. I thank you for your willingness to take in our lessons. I say good bye for now on behalf of myself and the others who lovingly surround you at this time. Au Revoir.”
George: “Thank you Chief.”
