Session
Opening
ABRAHAM: I am ABRAHAM. Greetings. I am honored to be a branch on your family tree. I notice I feel a comfort here that gives me strength. We have our close associates, as well as business associates; so to speak, here among you. I feel an open range of possibilities and a safety in the fact that we as close associates have unconditional love. To have this level of friendship does show the beginnings of Light and Life.
Lesson
Progress
ABRAHAM: We all know that this planet was experimental. This Correcting Time is also a learning experience. You can even say this group began with an experiment and I would like to acknowledge the bond that has developed over the years. When we first began the Correcting Time we had our assigned tasks and went forth with the intent to see to their completion. Honestly, most of us as Teachers and students had not the foresight of where this was to go. As I am seeing such progress, I am with such joy that I am witness to Father’s inner-workings.
We all have our assigned tasks or spirit inclinations and we move forward with good intent and are not with the knowledge of what our work will create. As people of faith, you turn within for guidance and it really is miraculous how you are so daring to move forward with your Spirit inclinations. As time has moved forward our study materials may become a bit outdated and in this Correcting Time you will learn for yourself new and updated processes of morontia mota. It would be a good time to review that section of the (Urantia) Book and think back over your years of experience and perhaps you will discover what new lessons that apply to this day and age.
MARY: I am MARY. Greetings to you, my friends. I am with joy every time we spend time together. I can confirm Abraham’s words that it is definitely a new era on this planet. There are so many new issues that have come about, not only in the time since I have worn the flesh, but just in this beginning of the Correcting Time. I am learning new definitions in life, today’s mortal life. I am witness to mortals clinging to old standards or traditions and not having acceptance for new ideas. However, it is wonderful to see so many individuals get involved with family, community, and government. Ears are opening and people are realizing life is moving with or without them.
Adjustment
We each have a different perspective on various situations and can be open or closed to the growth. Homosexuality for example, many looking at same sex partners have a different perspective on what makes life right and we have learned together and as students, that to make effort to stray away from judgment. It is because of evolution on this experimental planet that we must allow our perception to be open to Father’s definitions. Did the Life Carriers many years ago know how this planet would be today? No. but they went forth with their tasks and evolution and adaptation has always been a part of mortal life.
There are some things mortals just do not know about—the science of the why and how our world has come to be as it is this day, but we as Teaching Mission participants can always be open to new changes. You have said yourselves many times, I used to think this … now I think this. Some issues in life are an outworking of evolution and it is a bad idea to make judgments on the issues of today. You can say, ‘I am resentful of a certain race of people, for they infringe upon my lifestyle,’ but you do not know why they are infringing and are they? Are they not Fathers children?
We are each going to have to slide closer together at Fathers table to make room for others. No matter their lifestyle, race, religion, gender or status in society. You have the responsibility to take up the Master’s example and put it forth in daily living. I can say when you are with judgment or resentment that your perspective will stay small and this pushes down the Spirit.
They say, ‘you can’t teach an old dog new tricks’ that might be true, but you are mortals with a mindal link to all there is. You have the First Source and Center at your fingertips. You have Mother’s Seven Adjutant Mind Spirits for training and the wind of Michael ’s Spirit of Truth sweeping out the dark places to allow new light in. We have accepted these assignments from Father and we must take up our responsibility. We must always go within and see what the Spirit says, see how your perception can be different in a moment. We, within, are like a well and must dip our cup often and see what the Spirit says.
How can one still judge another with the knowledge of our First Source and Center? How can we attempt to hold back evolution when we genuinely seek within the Father’s guidance and know of His love for us? We are compassionate, yes, but also searching within for logic and somewhere, at some time each one of you have enlisted in this cause. We are helpers in moving evolution. For the most part I am saying we each keep an open mind and do our best to help others, but beware of the drama that causes internal disturbance. I am not saying embrace all things. I am suggesting we first go within and see what the Spirit says. In this Correcting Time we will see how our ego moves and be witness to others egocentricities, but at this time the world moves fast and we are lighthouses in the sea of everything.
Closing
MARY: As helpers in the Correcting Time we know where our knowledge comes from and we are saying to be open to growth and change. Things are not really what they appear to be and we are with the gift of Father’s presence to be guided to correct thinking—higher thinking, yes. I can’t take questions this evening, but I am not far away from you should you call on me. Know that Abraham and myself do smile upon you like parents. You bring us tremendous love and we are grateful always. We send you with our love. Go in peace. Shalom.
