Samuel of Panoptia.
Subject: “The ‘Dearth’ of Revelation.”
Received by George Barnard.
Samuel: “The very first thing that I wish to remind you of is that you are an evolutionary being in that as a general universal rule you are not entitled to revelationary material. As a product of evolution you are meant to grow into knowledge and wisdom by personal effort. So it is for the individual, for the family, for a nation, and in fact for an entire planet. Long ago it was determined that force-feeding information to those that are not yet ready can be counter productive.
“Still, as with almost anything, there can be exceptions. Should it be considered to be important for a certain individual to be apprised of some fact or other, the Thought Adjuster of this individual may well allow for certain revelationary information to be revealed.
“An exception may apply where a deep thinking individual has drawn a provisional conclusion, and in such a case confirmation may perhaps be allowed to be given. At times, for reasons of safety, or needed progress, certain revelations may be authorized.
“In any and all these circumstances it is in some way up to the Father – of course meaning the Thought Adjuster – to sign off on what is to be revealed. The real strength of an evolutionary ‘upbringing’ lies in the fact that you have free will. From moment to moment it is you who determines the path you will take – positive or negative, slothful or caring, cautious or careless. Yet despite the fact that the time-space worlds are run like clockwork, there’s human fickleness.
Adjustment is the catchword in the management of time-space procedures. Frequently the flow of events is tweaked to account for unexpected happenings, mostly due to your (human) ‘mercurial minds and fancy footwork’. Rarely do these events require some small matter of urgently relayed revelation, but it does happen. There may eventuate a need to know, a need to be forewarned, or a situation where personal revelation is fully deserved, perhaps critical.
“These are the primary reasons for revelation to be shared out when needed. However, apart from you loving your God, and equally loving your fellow man, there is a third requirement on planets where a visible spiritual hierarchy is lacking. That requirement is blind Faith. Blind faith is that precious ability on Urantia – the utter trust in God that all is well – which allows your citizens-pilgrims to attain great heights in the attainment of most responsible positions.
“What would happen to faith if revelation were to be supplied on demand? Consider. The suggestion that we keep you dumb by short-changing you on revelation, so as to make us appear smarter, is incorrect as well as mischievous. (Laughter – a short break). Aaron and I leave you our love.”
George: “Thank you both.”

Alabama, US of A, January 21, 2014.
Teacher: Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “Mind and Spirit.”
Message received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “Jesus suggested that the main motivation for human beings should be their most sincere intentions. Many religions teach that mortals should examine themselves, see their mistakes, and make the necessary adjustments. This is a useful and necessary task, but it does not promote spiritual progress on its own. Only when a human being feels the fervent desire to be better will the profound character transformations, bringing them closer to the object of their worship – the Father, take place.
Religion should not be limited to a simple intellectual exercise. The mind and the spirit are two different things. The mind is where human beings sketch their reality. Spirit is the moving force that is constantly motivating human efforts. The mind is the conscious efforts of man, his decisions. Spirit is the inspiration, the nudging, the guidance, and the guarantee of achievement. Humans cannot force spirit with their intellect, but spirit can touch the human intellect and elevate it to transcendental purposes.
The simple fact of saying ‘I want to be better’ can be the intent, but cannot withstand the challenges and the trials of everyday life. A simple statement of desiring eternal life can be noble, but cannot overcome errors or failure, when a creature must face the consequences of her irreflexive actions. Only the desire inspired by spirit will let you rise each time the weight of your mistaken decisions brings you down and will motivate you to move forward when the limitations of your human nature become painfully evident.
Jesus expected that all His children/siblings on this earth adopted a philosophy of life based on sincere spiritual searching. He knew how fragile human will could be and knew first-hand how the appearances of the world could confuse a sincere soul. The honest spiritual search – with the meekness and the humility of a child – is the only thing that can ensure the constant flow of spiritual inspiration to achieve success in life. The human mind will not transform men and make them more spiritual. Rather, spirit is the one that transforms the mind and brings men to eternal life. This is the key to building your faith upon solid foundations.
A faith that is solely intellectual will crumble easily due to the discoveries of more advanced ages. A faith based on miracles becomes skeptic when knowing that miracles can have rather mundane explanations. However, a faith that is based on spirit keeps the soul nourished and inspired to continue discovering new values and meanings in everyday life, since all creatures who carry the Presence of God in their being can truly discover Him in every moment, directly and without intermediaries in the personal experience.”

Teacher, The Beloved.
Subject: “A Sanctuary.”
Message received by Lytske
The Beloved: “Increasingly you shall experience a new level of growth while I lead you deeper within yourself. There are many levels to be explored, and this will continue throughout your numerous transitions during life eternal, before you attain fully-fledged spirit status.
There is a vast space intervening between the material and the spiritual. This is called the morontia state of being. Be aware of the fact that this is not the only life you will live. It is merely the preparatory life, during which, under My directions, you lay the foundation for your eternal life.
It is your faith and trust in Me that will make this foundation strong and unshakable. I know that you are up to this task, because I carry our blueprint as to what you and I are capable of becoming.
All I ask of you is that you sincerely try to sense My instructions more clearly when I provide you with choices. It is by your total free-will choice that you will turn away from the noises of the outer world, and make time for the inner world and come to Me in the Silence.
Here I am always waiting for you, where we enjoy each other’s company and you get to know, and increasingly trust Me more, so I can teach you and entice you to bring your every-day thoughts to a more spiritual and loving level.
In doing so, your inner world becomes your sanctuary, a bastion of strength built upon faith and trust, where there is no room for fear or worries.
This is the level I would have you attain in mortal life, a glorious faith, a sublime trust that all is well, because you are experiencing that ‘underneath are the everlasting arms,’ which nurture and protect you.”

Subject: “Let Me Play God’s Advocate.”
Message received by Anyas.
“Of God, the most inescapable of all presences, the most real of all facts, the most living of all truths, the most loving of all friends, and the most divine of all values, we have the right to be the most certain of all universe experiences.” [UB, 102:7.10]
Thought Adjuster: “Many human minds have not yet acknowledged their indwelling divine Fragment and campaign to disprove the ‘most real of all facts’— the First Source and Center of All-That-Is from which I hailed.
Let us reverse roles. Let me be the one challenging their atheistic disbelief system by asking them to come up with logical answers to My thought-provoking inquiries.
Here I go: Where does the life-sustaining energy come from? Haven't your scientists established that there is no cause without effect and no effect without a cause? If the material creation was accidental, how do you explain that everything is interactive and co-dependent?
What set off the Big Bang? How could a collision of such magnitude be constructive instead of devastating? Even the ‘chaos theorists’ recognize that ‘the universe’ abounds in happy accidents and surprises, and that order is slowly emerging out of chaos?
“The perfected grand universe of those future days will be vastly different from what it is at present. Gone will be the thrilling adventures of the organization of the galaxies of space, the planting of life on the uncertain worlds of time, and the evolving of harmony out of chaos, beauty out of potentials, truth out of meanings, and goodness out of values.” [UB, 117:7.17]
How could so much intrinsic beauty manifest itself through random events? Wouldn’t it be more reasonable to infer there is an intelligent orchestration of synchronicities and synchronizations? If human beings are ‘accidental tourists,’ why do they all long for everlasting happiness — a blissful state obtained by communing in love, peace, and harmony?
Where do emotions come from? Why do these non-material impulses of energy-in-motion exert such an influence on your decisions? What ‘motivates’ your actions if All-That-Came-to-Be is devoid of underlying intention?
Aren’t you wonders of unsurpassed engineering? Your eyebrows prevent perspiration or raindrops from blurring your vision. Your tears lubricate your eyes. Your downward-facing nostrils prevent raindrops from entering them and causing havoc on your respiratory system. Your limbs perform a vast array of mechanical functions. Your fingerprints and your personality are unique.
Why does each botanical species emit its designer fragrances? Why does Mother nature color-code its essential nutrients? Why do the plumages of birds of one feather come in various stunning color arrangements? Why does each flock sing to a different tune?
Are your finely tuned sensors random endowments? How do you explain such intelligent coincidences? Could all of this have occurred at the wrong place and wrong time?
I am waiting with bated breath and an open mind for your rebuttal. You can try to prove Me wrong, but I know for Myself that I am not a figment of imagination gone wild. I am a Fragment of The One some choose to ostracize from their life. No matter which conclusion you reach, I cannot vanish into nothingness, as I am part of All-That-Is — here to serve your highest good if only you would let Me. As a matter of fact, I hold the answer to all these questions.”

Monterrey, Mexico, July 25, 2017.
Teacher: Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “The Dawn of the Earth.”
Message received by Bettina.
Thought Adjuster: “It is time to open your eyes to note an awakening of consciousness, which dawns on the Earth — a prelude to the Age of Light and Life. A new day is dawning, the darkness is clearing. Bright light is beginning to emerge. Already illuminating the consciousness of many people, it will gradually include so very many others.
“The dawn brings with it new hopes, the beginning of new opportunities. Little by little, at first almost imperceptibly — repentance, forgiveness, goodness, yes peace — begin to emerge. And little by little they will spread, just as the dawn sunshine illuminates all landscapes on Earth. You don’t know how it will happen, you cannot understand it with a limited mind, but trust that it will be.
“Focus on receiving the light, on being you, the peace, kindness, forgiveness, love; focus on touching and transforming each person that you find on your path. You are part of this dawn. You are the awakening. And with it, new opportunities, abundance and well-being come to you.
“Prepare to receive. Focus on giving.
“The songs of birds can now be heard for the day is dawning. This is also how you begin to notice My Voice becoming louder, ever clearer, closer and closer. Are you awake already? Contemplate the dawn of the Earth.”
