Prayer<br><br>
Larry: Dear Father, thank you for this gathering. We are so
grateful for your love. We pray for peace in the world and the
speedy end to this war that is going on. We pray for the coming of
Light and Life. We love you very much Father. We love all of
your sons and daughters. We pray for their enlightenment and the
coming of Light and Life, amen.<br><br>
JarEl: TR, George. Good evening, it is I, your teacher,
JarEl. It is good to see all of you once again. I must say
that I do look forward to seeing you and to have conversation with
you. I would like to address current events, your social and
political climate on Urantia, it has reached an apex. There are
many pushing towards one outcome and yet there are others pushing towards
another. I would remind you, I have said this before, you are
connected to the entire human race in such a profound way that by its
very nature you should not fight among yourselves. This connection
that you hold is deep rooted and purely spiritual. It is the
essence from where all goodness sprouts. It is the core of the
eternal beauty that you aspire to. This connection holds you all
together and binds you with love, truth and beauty. This connection
exists and it is real as you are real. Why then do you feel so
separated from one another? I will tell you. Because you have
been deceived and led to believe that you are separate. You have
been lied to and coerced into believing that you have enemies to
fear. You have been tricked into believing that some people are
evil. All this has been done so that you may feel separate and when
you feel separate you tend to be more secluded, self-centered and
self-preserving. Then what happens around you does not matter,
least of all, what happens halfway around the world. This
separation is non-existent; this separation is an illusion, created for
the mere purpose of deceiving you. <br><br>
You here in this room, of reasonable minds, know full well that God
exists in each one of you. With this existence you become connected
with one another which, therefore, creates a brotherhood that is
ever-bonding. It is reasonable to believe that this bonding is
eternal and it shall never be broken. Why, therefore, does it
become easy for you to believe the deceptions, the tricks of the
tricksters? This is why your world is in the chaos it is in
today, because you have not learned how to live with one another in peace
and harmony. You are so easily led to believe that those halfway
around the world are your enemies; when in fact they are not. This
illusion is just that, an illusion; the illusion that you are separated,
there is no separation. It is only when you create the separation
in your mind that you truly become separated. You have created it
and therefore you manifest it. You not only separate yourself from
others, you also separate yourself from God. <br><br>
Living harmoniously does not come natural for humans. It is
something that you have to work for. Harmony is something which is
coordinated and built upon, it is an evolutionary process. Harmony
does not come by the way of war; it does come from earnest cooperation
with the sincere and the ambitious need for peace. Therefore, to
bring harmony to your world, you must first put down your weapons, stop
your fighting and begin to open a dialog which will enable you to
coordinate, cooperate and build upon. Nothing is ever resolved from
violence, only more violence. This world will not enter Light and
Life until the violence ceases, until you begin to cooperate with one
another, until you begin to open your heart to others. It is that
simple and yet you make it complicated when it shouldn’t be.
<br><br>
Those with sincere hearts will bring change to this earth. Those
with honest motives will start building upon the changes and usher this
earth to the destined age of Light and Life. I do honestly pray for
all of you here and for those who are suffering on your earth. I do
wish that your problems become resolved in an expedient fashion. I
know more than anyone, that in order for that to happen many things must
change and it will take time. Perhaps I will be teaching a fifth
generation of the Teaching Mission here on earth before it happens or it
may happen in your life time. I cannot predict anything. I
cannot foretell what will come for the earth. <br><br>
I can only show you a path which you may or may not walk. It is up
to you to take the path, it is up to you to make the decisions in your
life. It is up to you to bring peace to this war-tattered
earth. We are here as guides, as messengers. We cannot
interfere with your affairs, we cannot change your course or influence
you in anyway. We are here to teach and to be of service. We
are grateful for those who are willing to listen to us. This goes
out to the larger community of the Teaching Mission. We as teachers
are grateful to all of you who have dedicated your lives and your time to
bringing our message, our shining light to this earth. We are
grateful to all of you who so honestly dedicate your lives to bringing
forth messages such as this. You do not know how much we appreciate
this, this means so much and there is a great reward which awaits you for
your hard work and dedication. Continue to show forth the light,
continue to educate those around you and to inspire them. Many
thanks from all the teachers. Are there any questions
tonight?<br><br>
Stella: Is there such a thing as divine intervention when crises
like these appear on earth or is it strictly up to humanity to stop these
senseless wars?<br><br>
JarEl: TR, George. These concepts which arise from the minds
of men must be resolved within the realm of men. There is no
intervention when such conflicts arise. If these concepts
originated from outside of the realm of men, then we would
interfere. But since this has been created by your leaders, it is
up to you to resolve your problems. Does this answer your
question?<br><br>
Stella: Yes, but it seems like each side prays to God to help them,
yet God doesn’t listen. Like you say, it is up to man to solve his
own problems.<br><br>
JarEl: TR, George. God does not defeat your enemies.
God does not interfere in such matters. God will answer you if you
were to ask for peace, if you asked for harmony among your neighbors and
your enemies. If you ask God to destroy your enemies, he will not
answer, it is foolish to ask such things. <br><br>
Stella: I would never pray for that, but there are a lot of people
who want to destroy their enemies.<br><br>
JarEl: TR, George. Truly those who ask for such a thing
have no idea what God is to them. When you discover who God is for
you, in a personal way, you begin to realize that He is the same for
everyone. He does not have a favorite. He does not
discriminate and you are all equal in His eyes. So when you ask Him
to destroy your enemies, it is like you asking Him to destroy His son or
His daughter and He loves his sons and daughters. Why would He do
such a thing, to please your selfish longings? He understands
your point of view and understands your immaturity; the attitude that you
have. Therefore, He allows you resolve your own problems. He
allows you to suffer through such an ordeal in order that you learn from
the mistakes that were created. Remember always you are protected
by Him. No matter what happens to you, if you were to die, you are
still protected. You still will survive. Do not concern
yourself with your mortal life; it is only transient to the eternal
beauty. God knows that you will forgive any suffering that you had
to withstand here on earth when you finally arrive on the Mansion Worlds
and experience first hand the eternal beauty and the eternal life.
Any pain or suffering you experienced here will be like a dim
memory. So if you find yourself asking to destroy your enemy,
remember the beauties of eternal life and you would soon forget about
your selfishness. You shall experience a harmonious attitude that
is symbiotic with the universe. Are there any other
questions?<br><br>
Donna Jean: If I am walking down a street and I see a man beating a
child, what am I to do? I could pray that the man stop. I
could try to take the child away and protect him. Am I to let the
man also beat me? What am I to do?<br><br>
JarEl: TR, George. I would refer you to The Urantia Book,
where Jesus was confronted with such a similar situation. When a
woman was being beaten by her husband, Jesus intervened on behalf of the
person subject to attack. Jesus stepped up behind the irate husband
and, tapping him gently on the shoulder, said: “My friend, may I speak
with you in private for a moment?” Taking the man aside Jesus
defused the situation. In such a way you should act. There
are many way to intervene if only to contact the authorities for
help. Unfortunately these things happen constantly on this earth
and many times people overlook such things and allow such things to
happen, because many people have become complacent to violence.
Violence is not something that is accepted and it should be managed with
laws and social norms. You, of all people, know what to do in such
situations for you have a high state of reality and ethics that governs
your own life which allows you to assess the situation and to determine
that what the man is doing is not good. What governs your life,
what governs your morality? Since you hold to a higher truth, you
know more than anyone, what you see as is wrong and should be dealt with
accordingly. There are many way that a person can intervene.
It is not necessary to intervene physically. Are there any other
questions?<br><br>
Donna: JarEl I was just wondering about the Morontia Life on the
Morontia Worlds? I was thinking, since we are still semi-material
beings on the first few Morontia Worlds, there must be things such as
semi-material houses that we live in; semi-material clothing that we
wear? I was just wondering what is the economy of the Morontia
Worlds? When people need something, is it traded or bartered or do
they get what they need automatically? Could you tell us a little
bit about the methods of trade? About the things that we will still
need on the Morontia Worlds? I hope that makes sense?<br><br>
JarEl: TR, George. I understand what you are asking. To
be frank with you, you will not need anything. There is no trade or
barter on the Morontia Worlds. Everything that you require is given
to you. Everything needed is given to you. Every opportunity
you wished you had here on earth is given to you. You will soon
begin to realize that this universe is all about giving. You will
begin to give as well. You will soon find out that your experience
here on earth was unique. Once you enter the Morontia Realms
everything will be given to you. You will have no need or want for
anything. You will have abodes that will be set up for you.
You may rest and spend time there. <br><br>
Donna: Do some of the Morontia Beings create these abodes? Is
that part of what they do? <br><br>
JarEl: TR, George. These abodes exists before you
arrive. You are allowed to decorate and to change things to your
liking. There is no need to build these abodes. You will soon
find out that everything you want is given to you. <br><br>
Donna: So things that we want are given to us and we can choose
ourselves?<br><br>
JarEl: TR, George. Yes Donna you can always choose.<br><br>
Donna: Thank you.<br><br>
JarEl: TR, George. You are welcome. <br><br>
Stella: This is a silly question, but is there any ice up
there? I mean if you are a skater in this life and you want to
continue skating is there a place you can ice skate?<br><br>
JarEl: TR, George. There are places where the environment can
manipulated in order to accomplish such an event. But on a normal
world the temperature is regulated to a comfortable 72 degrees.
Like I said before everything will be provided for you. Are there
anymore questions?--------------Until the next time we meet I wish you
all a good night.<br><br>
All: Good night JarEl. Thank you. <br>
