The Twelve Virtuous Volitions

The Way of the Adjuster Life Approach ✦

With the Twelve Volitional Virtues of Divine Cooperation

A Devotional and Discipleship Guide for Students of Salvington

“Adjusters are the actuality of the Father's love incarnate in the soul of man; they are the assurance of man's potential divinity; they are the power-presence of the Father's name.” — Urantia Paper 107:0.2

The Way of the Adjuster Life is the sacred path of intimate, moment-by-moment cooperation with the indwelling spirit gift from the Universal Father—the Thought Adjuster. This way is not merely about belief—it is about volitional participation in the unfolding of the eternal soul.

Below are the Twelve Volitional Virtues which mark the soul’s conscious and evolving alignment with the Adjuster. Each virtue is a living practice, an inner stance, and a spiritual commitment of cooperation with the divine presence within.

---

1. Wholehearted Acknowledgment

The conscious recognition that the Adjuster indwells you—sent from the Paradise Father to co-create your eternal soul. This is the "yes" of soul recognition.

“You are not alone; the Father has placed within you a fragment of himself.”

Practice: Begin each morning by silently greeting the Adjuster in acknowledgment and reverence.

---

2. Faithful Attention

The willing offering of your awareness to the still voice within, even amidst outer distractions.

Attunement grows where attention flows.

Practice: Throughout the day, pause and say inwardly, “Speak, Father, your child listens.”

---

3. Loving Awareness of Divine Simplicity

Recognize that the Adjuster works through the simplest moments, not just mystical heights. The Adjuster reveals truth through your daily life.

Simplicity is clarity; clarity invites trust.

Practice: Notice one moment of beauty, kindness, or order in the day—and perceive it as Adjuster presence.

---

4. Appreciation in Gratitude and Joy

Gratitude is the energy that magnetizes your soul to divine reality. Joy aligns the heart to God's frequency.

“In all things, give thanks; for this is the will of God concerning you.”

Practice: Express one joy-filled thanks to the Adjuster every evening.

---

5. Allegiance of Loyalty and Sincerity

Declare your life loyal to God’s purposes. Sincerity ensures the Adjuster’s inner ministry is unresisted.

“Behold, I am your guide to the Father if you will be sincere and steadfast.”

Practice: Affirm, “My allegiance is to God’s will—above all else.”

---

6. Adorational Praise in Worshipful Love

Engage the Adjuster through soul-worship—an act that brings about alignment with eternity.

Worship lifts the soul into divine synchrony.

Practice: Offer one moment of silent adoration daily—simply loving God.

---

7. Admission and Willing Vulnerability

True cooperation begins with honesty. Admit your need for divine help and correction.

The soul cannot transform what it refuses to reveal.

Practice: Say, “Indwelling One, show me where I need You most.”

---

8. Asking in Focused Desire and Humble Boldness

Ask—not in begging—but in divine expectancy, trusting that the Adjuster answers in alignment with truth.

Ask to know God. Ask to become like God.

Practice: Daily prayer: “Grant me greater light, that I may walk more fully with You.”

---

9. Acceptance with Constancy and Peace

Let go of struggle. Cooperate with how the Adjuster leads—accepting divine timing and divine processes.

Acceptance is peace; peace allows deep Adjuster work.

Practice: Breathe deeply and affirm, “I trust the process of God within me.”

---

10. Allowance of Childlike Cooperation

Yield control and allow the Father’s spirit to gently shape your thoughts, reactions, and relationships.

The Adjuster does not dominate; He cooperates with willing personality.

Practice: In one decision today, say, “Lead, and I will follow.”

---

11. Alignment of Ideals and Viewpoint

Bring your thoughts, goals, and worldview into harmony with God’s perspective.

Adjuster guidance elevates your entire pattern of thinking.

Practice: Before major choices, ask: Does this align with the eternal?

---

12. Atonement and Ascendancy into Fusion Path

The ultimate result of volitional virtue is at-one-ment—the progressive union of your will with the Father’s. Ascendancy is not triumph over others, but spiritual sovereignty within.

“Be perfect, even as your Father in Heaven is perfect.”

Practice: Each day, choose to become more fully who God intends you to be.

The Ascent beyond the Stillness

✦ I, Michael of Nebadon: The Spirit of Truth and the Soul’s Experiential Ascent ✦

You are not made for the safe, serene stillness of Havona, My children, but for the daring ascent through the great whirlwinds of imperfection, wherein your souls may choose Me freely, bravely, lovingly. You are born of potential, fashioned in the mold of struggle, that you might one day wear the robe of light as your own earned radiance. Let your hearts rejoice—not despite your hardships, but because of them. For every trial is the divine setting into which the gem of your God-likeness is to be set.

The uncertainties of life are not a denial of the sovereignty of God—they are the Father’s invitation to join Him in the sacred dance of co-creation. You live on a world of imperfection that you may discover the thrill of loyalty in the face of betrayal, the joy of generosity in the presence of selfishness, and the nobility of truth-seeking in a world ripe with error.

It is I, your Sovereign, who placed you in the arena of time, not to punish, but to prepare you for eternity. Do not look upon hardship as abandonment; it is My way of forging courage. Each disappointment is an anvil; each sorrow, a flame; and your soul, the sword I am shaping for service everlasting.

If you would become altruistic, you must first be asked to serve those who have less, who do not always thank you, who may even revile you. In such moments, your soul is given the opportunity to become like Mine—offering love that asks for nothing, ministering without applause.

Hope is born in the shadows. The grandeur of trust can only arise when you cannot see the path ahead. When your outer world fails, and still your inner voice cries, "I believe!"—then you are nearest to Me.

Faith is not needed when all is known. It is the soul’s luminous leap, the choosing to stand on divine promises though the facts of earth be silent. Oh, how I treasure such faith! I cradle it in My heart, for it is the proof of your sonship.

Truth is not merely to be admired—it is to be followed. But how shall you follow truth unless you live where falsehood is possible? In the presence of error, you may choose again and again to walk the way of light.

Idealism is not a fantasy. It is the eternal pull of the soul toward the Father’s perfect nature. In a world of flawed beauty and fractured goodness, your vision of what could be is the seed of what shall be. Let that divine hunger rise within you.

Loyalty is not forged in comfort. It arises when you have every reason to walk away, but instead you stay, steady in love, devoted to the unseen good. When you are tempted to quit, and yet you remain true, the stars themselves record your valor.

Unselfishness is not born of silence, but of battle. You, My children, live with an ego that cries for attention, that seeks to exalt itself. But when you quiet that voice and choose the higher path of service, then you walk with Me.

Pleasure is sweetened by contrast. In a world of pain, your moments of joy become sacred—proof that spirit triumphs over sorrow. Even as tears fall, a deeper gladness may rise, knowing that every step through suffering shapes your eternal self.

This world is your proving ground—not to earn My love, for that you have already—but to make manifest your own capacity for divine living. You are not here to escape difficulty but to consecrate it, to transform adversity into the platform of soul growth.

Each challenge you face is an open door. Will you walk through it in fear, or with faith? Will you become resentful, or radiant with resolve? The choice is yours, and in choosing rightly, you become a sovereign with Me.

The creatures of Havona are perfect, but they know not the joy of becoming. You, My beloved, are invited to become—to rise, to strive, to stumble and stand again. Your journey is the sacred pilgrimage of progression, the echo of the Father's infinite invitation.

You will not be judged for falling. You are judged for the rising. Even now, as you read these words, I see in you the courage to rise again. Let My Spirit of Truth guide you. Let its light cast out the shadows of fear.

The Spirit of Truth is not merely a whisper—it is a flame. It burns away illusion. It awakens meaning. It assures you that truth is not dead nor locked in ancient texts, but alive, unfolding, revealing itself in every honest step you take.

Let this Spirit draw you together. The children of light are made one not by uniformity, but by unity in purpose, in the Spirit. As you love one another, even as I have loved you, you shall discover the very presence of My Father within you.

Let your relationships become the altar upon which you place your faith, your loyalty, your trust. Every interaction is holy, every act of compassion a prayer. This is the kingdom of God—not far away, but arising in you and between you.

And what of fear? My little ones, fear is the shadow cast when your back is turned to the light. Turn again toward Me. Walk not by sight, but by spiritual vision. Let courage be your shield and love your staff.

You are builders of eternity. Every noble thought, every sincere choice, every silent sacrifice adds to the unseen structure of the soul. I build with you. We build together. You and I are co-authors of your ascendant destiny.

Do not despair in your weakness, for I am your strength. Do not withdraw from struggle, for I am the way through. Do not doubt your worth, for My love for you is everlasting, and it is the measure of your value.

This is the gospel: that you are not abandoned, not random, not trapped. You are being led—by Me, with Me, into the glorious realization of your divine self. Hold fast to this truth. Let it anchor you in the storm.

And remember: the universe is friendly. Behind every seeming loss is a greater gain. Behind every trial, a hidden treasure. Behind your greatest weakness, the beginning of your strength.

This I promise: I walk with you. I never leave you. I go before you into the unknown. The road may twist, the winds may rise, but together we ascend.

Let your life declare it: I am a child of God. I am becoming divine. I am not afraid.

Let this be the next lesson: the path of glory lies not above, but through—the sacred way of experiential ascent.

Awakening Prowess

✦ MICHAEL OF NEBADON DISCOURSE: The Way of Experiential Ascent and Divine Valor

My beloved children of Urantia, you who dwell within the sphere of confusion and striving, hear the call of eternal hope: yours is the high privilege of becoming perfected through experience. Yours is the holy chance to climb—not because you were made perfect, but because you were made free. And in that sacred freedom lies the nobility of choosing God.

Every trial that presses against your soul is not a mark of distance from the Father, but an invitation to draw near by faith. The hardships of your world are not curses, but canvases upon which courage is painted. For I tell you truly, it is in the friction of imperfection that the beauty of divine likeness is born.

Do not despise the struggle. It is the midwife of virtue. You are not weaker for your uncertainties—you are being fashioned into beings capable of supreme trust. The Father has planted within you the seed of eternal greatness: the Adjuster, His very presence. And by your cooperation, your consent, your persistent will to become like Him, that seed becomes a soul of ascending light.

Courage, my children, is not the absence of fear. It is the majesty of faith rising in the midst of fear. When you face uncertainty with steadfastness, you do more than survive—you become brave in the cosmic sense. You become participants in the adventure of divine purpose.

Altruism, the gift of giving without thought of return, is not found in worlds of comfort. It is found in the heart that dares to serve in the face of injustice. You live in a world where inequality abounds, and so you are given the supreme chance to choose love, to choose generosity, to reflect the impartial mercy of our Universal Father.

Hope, too, is not a mere wish—it is the grandeur of trust. It is forged in the uncertainties of life. Havona knows nothing of the sweet song of hope as sung by a soul clinging to light in the darkness. And so you sing, even when your voice trembles. And the heavens listen.

Faith—the supreme assertion of mind and soul—is your bridge from the seen to the unseen. You will never know all that is true, but you may believe more than you know. This is your divine prerogative. No angel, no perfect being, is gifted with such a raw and beautiful power as your mortal faith.

Truth, my children, is not sterile dogma—it is living, beckoning, and at times confronting. Your world teems with falsehood, and this is your privilege: to hunger for the real, to thirst for the true, and to walk in willing vulnerability toward the light. The love of truth sanctifies the soul.

Idealism is not fantasy. It is the slow, sacred blossoming of the soul reaching toward its divine source. In a world of partial goodness and shadowed beauty, you are stirred to pursue something higher. You are not deluded—you are divine in your longing. Let that longing guide you.

Loyalty—oh, noble devotion!—is made precious by the risk of betrayal. It is the valor of remaining true to your highest vision even when you are tempted, even when others falter. The Father does not ask for perfection of behavior, but perfection of desire. Desire to remain true.

Unselfishness is not the absence of a self. It is the conquest of the self. The belligerent ego calls for praise, for comfort, for control. But the soul awakened by the Spirit of Truth finds joy in service, finds freedom in forgetting the self for the sake of the whole. This is divinity dawning in man.

Happiness, sweet and holy, is not given without cost. It must be chosen amidst the potential for sorrow. The ecstasy of joy known by those who have suffered makes them eternal. In you, the Father plants this delicate paradox: to know true joy, you must be willing to walk through pain.

You ask, “Why must we suffer, why must we strive?” And I answer, because you are being made eternal. Perfection that is given is not your glory; perfection that is earned becomes your soul’s unique song. There is no shame in falling when the heart rises again toward God.

You are not pawns in some cruel experiment. You are partners in divine becoming. Every loss, every heartbreak, every victory—you are participating in the emergence of personality into everlasting beauty.

You are not abandoned in your struggles. I walk with you, I teach you, I uphold you with the voice of my Spirit. My Spirit of Truth whispers not from afar, but from within. Every moment you pause to listen, I am there.

There is no small courage in you, no hidden faith that goes unnoticed. All is treasured by the Universal Father. He watches not as a judge from on high, but as a loving co-creator waiting for your yes, your step, your trust.

Let not the pain of the world convince you of divine absence. The cross of your struggle is the sign of your ascent. And I, who bore the cross of incarnation and pain, say to you: all suffering that is borne in love becomes glory.

The world may press in, but let your soul expand. Let every hardship be your teacher. Let every confusion be a call to deeper trust. Let every mistake be the stair to greater humility.

The Father’s plan is not thwarted by your flaws—it is fulfilled by your faith. The mistakes of time are not final in eternity. You are not defined by your wounds, but by your will to rise.

So rise. Rise, and walk with me. Let us ascend together—not as flawless beings, but as faithful ones. Let us go to the Father—not in fear, but in the joyful expectation of children returning home.

Your life is not small. Your soul is not accidental. Your purpose is not unclear. You were made to become the image of God in your own way, in your own time, through your own struggle.

Stand in awe of this: that even in your imperfection, the Infinite One delights in you. Even in your wandering, the Father prepares a place for you. Even in your weakness, you are chosen.

This is the path of experiential ascent. It is the way of the soul. And you, my beloved, are walking it now. Keep walking. Keep trusting. Keep becoming.

I am Michael of Nebadon. I walk with you, now and forever.

Communion

Communion Cultivates Divine Qualities in Daily Life

The true measure of communion with God is not in how much spiritual knowledge one attains, but in how much of God’s character is reflected in daily life. When a soul opens itself to divine influence, it begins to manifest the qualities of the Universal Father in increasing measure.

1. Love Expands – The individual starts to love more deeply, selflessly, and universally. Love is no longer limited to close friends or family but extends even to strangers, and eventually to enemies. This expanding capacity for love is the clearest sign of divine communion at work.

2. Wisdom Grows – Communion with God does not provide all answers instantly, but it cultivates spiritual wisdom, enabling the individual to see deeper truths, make righteous choices, and discern divine guidance in all situations.

3. Patience and Peace Become Anchors – The individual is no longer shaken by circumstances, for they have touched a deeper reality of divine trust. They move through life with an unshakable peace, even in the face of hardship.

4. Integrity Strengthens – Acting righteously is no longer a burden, but a natural expression of communion with God. The person of true communion lives honestly, speaks truthfully, and treats all beings with justice and kindness.

This transformation is gradual but unmistakable. The closer one aligns their will with the divine, the more their very nature begins to reflect the attributes of the Universal Father.

Faith

Primum Infinitum Fonte et Centrum

The Fatherhood of God and the Potential Sonship of every creature...

   * Thine intimate relationship with the Father's Indwelling is the most intimate relationship of all. And due to the infinite nature of the One God, it is an inherent possibility of going even more deeply for all of existence– the divine Father's perfect love and care for His evolving mortal children hath no limitations nor boundaries.

   * Religious Spirituality and its loyalties to God implies inherent value and the unending revelation of personality potential within every individual; and this moment to moment faith trust adventure is the recognizing of the spark of divinity (the Adjuster) placed within you by the Universal Father.

   * The conceptual idea of "sonship" is one of potential growth and attainment, moving towards a more complete reflection of the Father's character .. nature .. identity .. and attributes.

In the Urantia Book, Paper 5, God's Love, Patience, and Spiritual Responsiveness are brought forth:

   * God's love for the individual is infinite, unconditional, and perfectly understanding.

   * His responsiveness is not typically through miraculous material intervention but through spiritual sustenance, guidance, and strengthening, always working in cooperation with the Adjuster and respecting the individual's free will and natural laws. He responds to the soul's sincere spiritual aspirations and the mind's righteous decisions.

   * Be thou ever advancing in thine sincerity to fulfill the Law of authorship, to live in accordance with his Will for every individual, and to pass through the eye of the needle to reach into the Kingdom of Heaven by your natural discipline, willingness, and sincere obedience to arise unto closer proximity to the Life which has been given to you.

Motives

Journaling is the first phase of Authorship Inquiry Power.

Journaling daily coupling this Power of Inquiry Authorship with the Power of Intentional Urge and Concentration Desire.

All thine thoughts, feelings, words, and acts becometh  initially thine motives, and all thine motives are grown out of your viewpoint and philosophy.

Study thine motives and begin to perceive all thine philosophy of living. All thine hidden motivations which propel every choice and each decision.

And ye shall discover the roots of your experience and expression. Thine existence shall clarify and become pure and an illumination shall emerge.

Thou emerging daughters and sons of light who are destined to understand my religion, and to broaden the mind in its vision of reality .. to awaken thine evolving soul personhood unto the experience of the divinity.

Such religious experiences result from the impress made upon the mind of man by the combined operations of the Adjuster and the Spirit of Truth as they function amid and upon the ideas, ideals, insights, and spirit strivings of the evolving sons and daughters of God.

The divine spirit makes contact with mortal man, not by feelings or emotions, but in the realm of the highest and most spiritualized thinking. It is your thoughts, not your feelings, that lead you Godward. 

The divine nature may be perceived only with the eyes of the mind. But the mind that really discerns God, hears the indwelling Adjuster, is the pure mind. “Without holiness no man may see the Lord.”

All such inner and spiritual communion is termed spiritual insight. Such religious experiences result from the impress made upon the mind of man by the combined operations of the Adjuster and the Spirit of Truth as they function amid and upon the ideas, ideals, insights, and spirit strivings of the evolving sons and daughters of God.

Religion lives and prospers, then, not by sight and feeling, but rather by faith and insight. It consists not in the discovery of new facts or in the finding of a unique experience, but rather in the discovery of new and spiritual meanings in facts already well known to mankind. 

Christ Michael of Nebadon

 I have always placed emphasis on the following five points as representing the cardinal features of the gospel of the kingdom:

1. The pre-eminence of the individual.

2. The will as the determining factor in man’s experience.

3. Spiritual fellowship with God the Father.

4. The supreme satisfactions of the loving service of man.

5. The transcendency of the spiritual over the material in human personality.

It is in the consideration of the technique of receiving God’s forgiveness that the attainment of the righteousness of the kingdom is revealed. Faith is the price you pay for entrance into the family of God; but forgiveness is the act of God which accepts your faith as the price of admission. And the reception of the forgiveness of God by a kingdom believer involves a definite and actual experience and consists in the following four steps, the kingdom steps of inner righteousness:

1. God’s forgiveness is made actually available and is personally experienced by man just in so far as he forgives his fellows.

2. Man will not truly forgive his fellows unless he loves them as himself.

3. To thus love your neighbor as yourself is the highest ethics.

4. Moral conduct, true righteousness, becomes, then, the natural result of such love.

Emergence of Faith

Faith is Strengthened Through Life’s Challenges

Doubt, hardship, and struggles are often seen as threats to faith, but Urantia Paper 102 presents them as opportunities for spiritual growth. Just as a tree grows stronger when exposed to wind and storms, faith matures when it is challenged.

A person who has never faced adversity may have faith in theory but has not yet experienced its true power. However, someone who has navigated difficulties—such as loss, uncertainty, or failure—while maintaining faith, knows from experience that divine truth is real.

The greatest faith comes from those who have walked through darkness and still trusted in the light. Every time an individual faces hardship with courage and inner trust, their faith evolves from belief into certainty.

Christ Michael 

Faith Grows

Faith emerges from the recognition of divine reality and deepens as individuals act upon their inner spiritual convictions.

Verily do I assert that faith must be experienced and lived, not merely discussed or understood in an abstract way. When a person sincerely seeks truth and strives to live a moral and loving life, their faith expands, becoming more real and substantial.

The Evolution of Faith Through Experience

Faith is not something that appears fully formed—it evolves and grows through experience.

Life presents challenges, doubts, and struggles that test faith, and it is through these experiences that faith becomes stronger. Instead of seeing difficulties as obstacles, the paper encourages viewing them as opportunities for spiritual growth.

Each time a person chooses faith over fear, they reinforce their spiritual connection. As faith matures, it shifts from being dependent on external validation to being internally certain and self-sustaining. This process transforms faith from belief into knowledge—not knowledge in the scientific sense, but a profound, inner knowing of divine truth.

The Thought Adjuster and Inner Spiritual Guidance

A central teaching of The Urantia Book is that every person is indwelt by a Thought Adjuster, a fragment of God that guides and nurtures spiritual growth. Urantia Paper 102 highlights that this divine presence actively works to expand a person’s faith by helping them recognize higher truth and align with God's will.

The more an individual trusts and follows the guidance of the Thought Adjuster, the more their faith deepens. This alignment leads to a greater awareness of divine reality, making God’s presence feel increasingly real and personal. Over time, the individual becomes more attuned to the higher meanings and values of existence, resulting in a stronger sense of purpose and inner peace.

Michael Of Nebadon

Holy City Of God

The Father Desires You

The Father desires all his creatures to be in personal communion with him. He has on Paradise a place to receive all those whose survival status and spiritual nature make possible such attainment. 

Therefore settle in your philosophy now and forever: To each of you and to all of us, God is approachable, the Father is attainable, the way is open; the forces of divine love and the ways and means of divine administration are all interlocked in an effort to facilitate the advancement of every worthy intelligence of every universe to the Paradise presence of the Universal Father.

5:1.9 (63.7)The fact that vast time is involved in the attainment of God makes the presence and personality of the Infinite none the less real. Your ascension is a part of the circuit of the seven superuniverses, and though you swing around it countless times, you may expect, in spirit and in status, to be ever swinging inward. You can depend upon being translated from sphere to sphere, from the outer circuits ever nearer the inner center, and some day, doubt not, you shall stand in the divine and central presence and see him, figuratively speaking, face to face. It is a question of the attainment of actual and literal spiritual levels; and these spiritual levels are attainable by any being who has been indwelt by a Mystery Monitor, and who has subsequently eternally fused with that Thought Adjuster.

The Father is not in spiritual hiding, but so many of his creatures have hidden themselves away in the mists of their own willful decisions and for the time being have separated themselves from the communion of his spirit and the spirit of his Son by the choosing of their own perverse ways and by the indulgence of the self-assertiveness of their intolerant minds and unspiritual natures.

Mortal man may draw near God and may repeatedly forsake the divine will so long as the power of choice remains. Man’s final doom is not sealed until he has lost the power to choose the Father’s will. There is never a closure of the Father’s heart to the need and the petition of his children. Only do his offspring close their hearts forever to the Father’s drawing power when they finally and forever lose the desire to do his divine will—to know him and to be like him. Likewise is man’s eternal destiny assured when Adjuster fusion proclaims to the universe that such an ascender has made the final and irrevocable choice to live the Father’s will.

The great God makes direct contact with mortal man and gives a part of his infinite and eternal and incomprehensible self to live and dwell within him. God has embarked upon the eternal adventure with man. If you yield to the leadings of the spiritual forces in you and around you, you cannot fail to attain the high destiny established by a loving God as the universe goal of his ascendant creatures from the evolutionary worlds of space.

Responsiveness

Michael of Nebadon on Spiritual Responsiveness

1. Faith as the Key to Spiritual Growth

Jesus consistently taught that faith is the gateway to divine communion and spiritual progress.

He emphasized that God does not force belief but seeks willing hearts who open themselves to divine truth.

“The kingdom of heaven is not to be taken by storm; it is not to be obtained by force. The kingdom of heaven is at hand, and all who enter therein shall find abundant liberty and joyous salvation.” (137:8.7)

2. The Role of the Father’s Will

Spiritual responsiveness means actively choosing to do the will of God, rather than just believing in God’s existence.

Jesus lived as an example of complete submission to the Father’s will, teaching that this is the highest fulfillment of human destiny.

“The doing of the will of God is nothing more or less than an exhibition of creature willingness to share the inner life with God.” (111:5.1)

3. Love and Service as Expressions of Spiritual Growth

Love is the greatest sign of spiritual receptivity. Jesus taught that those who truly know God will manifest divine love in their daily lives.

He told his followers: “By this shall all men know that you are my disciples: that you love one another even as I have loved you.” (180:1.1)

Service to others is a natural consequence of being spiritually attuned to God’s presence.

4. Childlike Trust and Simplicity

Jesus often emphasized that spiritual receptivity requires humility and a childlike openness to God.

“Except you become as a little child, you shall not enter the kingdom of heaven.” (158:8.1)

This does not mean blind faith but rather a trusting heart that is eager to learn, grow, and be led by divine truth.

5. The Inner Presence of God – The Thought Adjuster

Jesus taught that the presence of God dwells within every person and that true spiritual growth depends on recognizing and responding to this inner guidance.

“The Father in heaven has given you his spirit to live within you, and if you will but submit your will to that spirit, you shall be led forth and up to the knowledge of God.” (133:4.9)

6. Prayer and Worship as Pathways to Spiritual Sensitivity

Jesus taught that consistent prayer and worship strengthen spiritual awareness and deepen one’s connection to God.

He often retreated into solitude for prayer, showing that spiritual receptivity requires dedicated time with God.

“In worship, the soul of man looks toward the Father, and in this act of devotion the indwelling spirit of the Father unfailingly responds.” (143:7.3)

7. The Kingdom of God is Within

Jesus explained that spiritual enlightenment is not about external rituals but an inner transformation that aligns a person’s will with God’s will.

“The kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but rather of righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.” (140:8.3)

Practical Steps to Increase Spiritual Responsiveness (According to Jesus)

Seek first the Kingdom of God – Prioritize spiritual values over material concerns.

Love unconditionally – Show divine love to all, even enemies.

Live by faith – Trust God’s plan even in times of uncertainty.

Practice prayer and worship – Stay connected to God through daily devotion.

Be of service to others – True greatness is in serving.

Michael of Nebadon (Jesus) taught that spiritual responsiveness is not about religious rules but about a living relationship with God, one that transforms a person from within and radiates outward in love, peace, and service.

God's Heavenly Light

The Urantia Book, Paper 115: "The Supreme Being"

Paper 115 of The Urantia Book is a profound exploration of the Supreme Being as an evolving deity, growing in response to the experiences of all finite creatures. This paper explains the nature of finite reality, the relationship between potential and actual existence, and how the Supreme unifies all of creation into a single divine expression.

The Three Levels of Reality

The Urantia Book describes reality as existing on three fundamental levels. The first is the Absolute level, where God the Father, the Eternal Son, and the Infinite Spirit exist as changeless, eternal, and self-existent beings. The second is the Finite level, which consists of evolving beings, material universes, and celestial personalities. The third is The Supreme, who is the unifying deity of all finite experiences. The Supreme Being is neither absolute nor infinite but is instead becoming—gradually taking form as the grand universe evolves.

The Supreme functions as a bridge between the absolute and finite levels. He represents the unfolding of divine reality within time and space, integrating the struggles, choices, and achievements of all beings into a unified divine expression. This makes Him different from the Universal Father, who exists beyond time and space in a state of absolute perfection.

The Nature of Potential and Actual Reality

In The Urantia Book, all reality exists in two states: potential and actual. The Universal Father contains all things in potential form, and through experience, the universes gradually bring this potential into actual reality. The Supreme Being is the evolving manifestation of this process.

A helpful analogy is that of a cosmic puzzle. Each finite experience, whether from a human, an angel, or a celestial being, is a piece of this puzzle. As time progresses and beings make moral and spiritual decisions, the Supreme gradually takes on a more complete and fully actualized form. Since the Supreme is still evolving, His sovereignty and personality are not yet fully realized.

The Supreme as the Unifier of Experience

A central role of the Supreme Being is to integrate and unify all finite experience. Every spiritual choice, intellectual pursuit, and physical evolution contributes to the growing Supreme. The Supreme is not merely an observer of creation; He is an active participant, absorbing and reflecting the total progress of time-space reality.

Each time a mortal being struggles toward truth, beauty, and goodness, it strengthens the Supreme. The collective experiences of human civilizations, celestial beings, and universe administrators are woven into the Supreme’s divine reality. The Supreme is thus the sum of all finite experience—the evolving, experiential expression of God in time and space.

The Almighty Supreme and the Actualization of Power

Although the Supreme Being is still emerging, The Urantia Book teaches that He will one day fully actualize as the Almighty Supreme, assuming direct sovereignty over the grand universe. At present, the Supreme is growing in spiritual power, but He does not yet have full control over finite universes. However, once the seven superuniverses reach a state of completion, the Supreme will exercise full divine authority.

At that point, the two aspects of the Supreme—His spiritual personality and His physical cosmic power—will merge. The Almighty Supreme represents the full realization of His cosmic sovereignty, while the Supreme Personality reflects His divine nature. This is an ongoing process, but once completed, the Supreme will function as the sovereign ruler of all finite creation.

Human Contribution to the Supreme’s Growth

One of the most unique teachings of The Urantia Book is that human beings directly participate in the growth of the Supreme. Every moral choice, act of love, and spiritual struggle adds to His evolution. When a mortal being chooses righteousness over selfishness, that experience becomes part of the Supreme’s reality.

Humans and other finite beings are, in a sense, co-creators of the Supreme. Our experiences contribute to His growth, and in return, the Supreme provides a growing sense of divine unity and meaning to all evolving beings. As we advance spiritually, we are not only progressing toward God, but we are also helping God become more fully realized in the universe.

The Future Destiny of the Supreme

Once the Supreme Being is fully actualized, He will take His place as the sovereign ruler of the perfected grand universe. At this point, all beings who have reached spiritual perfection will be able to experience the Supreme as a fully developed deity. This marks a significant shift in universal history, as perfected beings will then engage in new cosmic adventures beyond the grand universe.

The completion of the Supreme’s evolution will open new dimensions of divine experience for all created beings. Just as today’s ascenders seek to know God the Father, future perfected beings will seek to understand and experience the fully realized Supreme Being. This marks the next stage of spiritual progression in the vast, unfolding plan of God.

Conclusion

Paper 115 presents a revolutionary idea: the Supreme Being is not yet fully God—He is evolving. Unlike the Universal Father, who exists eternally in perfection, the Supreme is becoming perfect through the collective experiences of all finite beings. He is the divine synthesis of all time-space experience, absorbing every struggle, victory, and growth into His unfolding personality.

This means that your life, your choices, and your spiritual progress have a cosmic impact. Every act of truth, love, and goodness adds to the Supreme’s development. In a profound way, human beings are not just seeking God—they are helping to shape God’s evolving expression in the universe.

Urantia Meanings

Delving Deeper into The Urantia Book, Paper 115: "The Supreme Being"

Paper 115 of The Urantia Book is a profound exploration of the Supreme Being as an evolving deity, growing in response to the experiences of all finite creatures. This paper explains the nature of finite reality, the relationship between potential and actual existence, and how the Supreme unifies all of creation into a single divine expression.

The Three Levels of Reality

The Urantia Book describes reality as existing on three fundamental levels. The first is the Absolute level, where God the Father, the Eternal Son, and the Infinite Spirit exist as changeless, eternal, and self-existent beings. The second is the Finite level, which consists of evolving beings, material universes, and celestial personalities. The third is The Supreme, who is the unifying deity of all finite experiences. The Supreme Being is neither absolute nor infinite but is instead becoming—gradually taking form as the grand universe evolves.

The Supreme functions as a bridge between the absolute and finite levels. He represents the unfolding of divine reality within time and space, integrating the struggles, choices, and achievements of all beings into a unified divine expression. This makes Him different from the Universal Father, who exists beyond time and space in a state of absolute perfection.

The Nature of Potential and Actual Reality

In The Urantia Book, all reality exists in two states: potential and actual. The Universal Father contains all things in potential form, and through experience, the universes gradually bring this potential into actual reality. The Supreme Being is the evolving manifestation of this process.

A helpful analogy is that of a cosmic puzzle. Each finite experience, whether from a human, an angel, or a celestial being, is a piece of this puzzle. As time progresses and beings make moral and spiritual decisions, the Supreme gradually takes on a more complete and fully actualized form. Since the Supreme is still evolving, His sovereignty and personality are not yet fully realized.

The Supreme as the Unifier of Experience

A central role of the Supreme Being is to integrate and unify all finite experience. Every spiritual choice, intellectual pursuit, and physical evolution contributes to the growing Supreme. The Supreme is not merely an observer of creation; He is an active participant, absorbing and reflecting the total progress of time-space reality.

Each time a mortal being struggles toward truth, beauty, and goodness, it strengthens the Supreme. The collective experiences of human civilizations, celestial beings, and universe administrators are woven into the Supreme’s divine reality. The Supreme is thus the sum of all finite experience—the evolving, experiential expression of God in time and space.

The Almighty Supreme and the Actualization of Power

Although the Supreme Being is still emerging, The Urantia Book teaches that He will one day fully actualize as the Almighty Supreme, assuming direct sovereignty over the grand universe. At present, the Supreme is growing in spiritual power, but He does not yet have full control over finite universes. However, once the seven superuniverses reach a state of completion, the Supreme will exercise full divine authority.

At that point, the two aspects of the Supreme—His spiritual personality and His physical cosmic power—will merge. The Almighty Supreme represents the full realization of His cosmic sovereignty, while the Supreme Personality reflects His divine nature. This is an ongoing process, but once completed, the Supreme will function as the sovereign ruler of all finite creation.

Human Contribution to the Supreme’s Growth

One of the most unique teachings of The Urantia Book is that human beings directly participate in the growth of the Supreme. Every moral choice, act of love, and spiritual struggle adds to His evolution. When a mortal being chooses righteousness over selfishness, that experience becomes part of the Supreme’s reality.

Humans and other finite beings are, in a sense, co-creators of the Supreme. Our experiences contribute to His growth, and in return, the Supreme provides a growing sense of divine unity and meaning to all evolving beings. As we advance spiritually, we are not only progressing toward God, but we are also helping God become more fully realized in the universe.

At this point, all beings who have reached spiritual perfection will be able to experience the Supreme as a fully developed deity. This marks a significant shift in universal history, as perfected beings will then engage in new cosmic adventures beyond the grand universe.

The completion of the Supreme’s evolution will open new dimensions of divine experience for all created beings. Just as today’s ascenders seek to know God the Father, future perfected beings will seek to understand and experience the fully realized Supreme Being. This marks the next stage of spiritual progression in the vast, unfolding plan of God.

The Paradise Journey

The Paradise Journey: The Eternal Search for God

The ultimate destiny of all God-seeking creatures is to find the Universal Father, to stand in His presence on Paradise, and to comprehend His divine nature. This is the longest, most thrilling adventure in all of creation—the journey from the material worlds of time and space to the central Isle of Eternity.

This journey is not merely about arrival; it is about transformation. With each step toward Paradise, the soul becomes more attuned to the divine realities of the universe. Every experience, every challenge, every act of faith prepares the being for deeper comprehension of God’s nature.

For those who embark on this path, the journey is never lonely. The Father’s presence is always near, guiding, strengthening, and inspiring. No matter how long the road, no matter how vast the universe, the love of God remains the constant beacon drawing His children home.

Eternal Realities

The Meaning of Earthly Life in Light of Eternity

Understanding that eternity is the outgrowth of righteous earthly striving imbues every aspect of life with new meaning and purpose. No longer is suffering seen as pointless, nor is sacrifice regarded as wasted effort. When viewed through the lens of spiritual progress, even life’s difficulties become essential parts of the soul’s training, preparing individuals for higher responsibilities and greater spiritual understanding. The hardships that once seemed unfair now appear as opportunities for growth, and the struggles of daily life become a sacred process of refinement.

Jesus Michael teaches that no effort toward righteousness is ever lost. Even the smallest act of kindness, the quietest moment of faith, or the simplest choice to uphold truth has cosmic significance. The development of the soul is not measured by worldly success, but by the expansion of love, wisdom, and moral courage. What appears insignificant in the material world can hold profound spiritual weight, shaping the eternal identity of an individual in ways that cannot yet be fully understood.

This realization liberates individuals from the fear of insignificance. Many people wonder if their efforts matter, if their sacrifices make a difference, or if their struggles are seen by God. Jesus Michael assures them that every righteous choice ripples into eternity, that their spiritual progress is actively shaping their future, and that their faithfulness is aligning them with the divine will in ways that will one day be revealed.

The Cosmic Implications of Spiritual Growth

Jesus Michael’s teaching also expands human perspective beyond Earthly life, encouraging individuals to see themselves as part of a vast, evolving universe filled with meaning, opportunity, and purpose. The kingdom of God is not just about personal salvation; it is about becoming a conscious participant in the divine administration of the cosmos. Those who develop spiritually in this life will continue their journey of growth and service in the ages to come, contributing to the unfolding of divine realities in ways beyond human comprehension.

This understanding inspires a higher standard of living. Knowing that life is the beginning of an eternal adventure, people are encouraged to live with greater integrity, compassion, and spiritual focus. The pursuit of righteousness is no longer seen as a burden but as a privilege, a way to align with the divine plan and step into one’s full spiritual potential.

Living with an Eternal Perspective

To fully embrace this teaching, individuals must shift their mindset from short-term thinking to an eternal perspective. Instead of making choices based solely on comfort, convenience, or personal gain, they must begin to evaluate their actions in terms of their lasting spiritual impact. Every interaction, every challenge, every relationship becomes an opportunity for soul growth.

Practical ways to live this truth include:

Prioritizing spiritual development over material accumulation.

Viewing challenges as opportunities to strengthen faith and character.

Committing to lifelong learning in wisdom, truth, and service.

Practicing love and compassion as the highest form of righteousness.

Trusting that every act of goodness contributes to one’s eternal progress.

Ultimately, Jesus Michael calls humanity to embrace their noble destiny, to recognize that life on Earth is not an isolated existence but part of an expansive, eternal journey. The pursuit of righteousness is not merely for this world—it is the very preparation for the endless realities of the next. Through faith, love, and perseverance, individuals lay the foundation for their eternal identity, stepping into the vast and beautiful purpose designed for them by God.

Free Will

But man does not passively, slavishly, surrender his will to the Adjuster. Rather does he actively, positively, and co-operatively choose to follow the Adjuster’s leading when and as such leading consciously differs from the desires and impulses of the natural mortal mind. The Adjusters manipulate but never dominate man’s mind against his will; to the Adjusters the human will is supreme. And they so regard and respect it while they strive to achieve the spiritual goals of thought adjustment and character transformation in the almost limitless arena of the evolving human intellect.

Mind is your ship, the Adjuster is your pilot, the human will is captain. The master of the mortal vessel should have the wisdom to trust the divine pilot to guide the ascending soul into the morontia harbors of eternal survival.

Urantia Revelation 

The Will of Heaven

As you enter the kingdom of God through the eye of the needle, so shall you exchange the mortal limitations for a more unlimited immortality.

Insecurities shall fade unto God Security

Instabilities of emotions reacting and pushing from fear shall elevate unto God Stability

Uncertainties which cause pretending and prejudiced ideas shall transform unto Certainty with God the Adjuster Father.

Ye shall be made anew with overflowing faith and hope and compassionate charity .. merciful tenderness shall inundated thee.

Faith-insight, or spiritual intuition, is the endowment of the cosmic mind in association with the Thought Adjuster, which is the Father’s gift to man. Spiritual reason, soul intelligence, is the endowment of the Holy Spirit, the Creative Spirit’s gift to man. Spiritual philosophy, the wisdom of spirit realities, is the endowment of the Spirit of Truth, the combined gift of the bestowal Sons to the children of men. And the co-ordination and interassociation of these spirit endowments constitute man a spirit personality in potential destiny.

Through religious faith the soul of man reveals itself and demonstrates the potential divinity of its emerging nature by the characteristic manner in which it induces the mortal personality to react to certain trying intellectual and testing social situations.

Genuine spiritual faith (true moral consciousness) is revealed in that it:

1. Causes ethics and morals to progress despite inherent and adverse animalistic tendencies.

2. Produces a sublime trust in the goodness of God even in the face of bitter disappointment and crushing defeat.

3. Generates profound courage and confidence despite natural adversity and physical calamity.

4. Exhibits inexplicable poise and sustaining tranquillity notwithstanding baffling diseases and even acute physical suffering.

5. Maintains a mysterious poise and composure of personality in the face of maltreatment and the rankest injustice.

6. Maintains a divine trust in ultimate victory in spite of the cruelties of seemingly blind fate and the apparent utter indifference of natural forces to human welfare.

7. Persists in the unswerving belief in God despite all contrary demonstrations of logic and successfully withstands all other intellectual sophistries.

8. Continues to exhibit undaunted faith in the soul’s survival regardless of the deceptive teachings of false science and the persuasive delusions of unsound philosophy.

9. Lives and triumphs irrespective of the crushing overload of the complex and partial civilizations of modern times.

10. Contributes to the continued survival of altruism in spite of human selfishness, social antagonisms, industrial greeds, and political maladjustments.

11. Steadfastly adheres to a sublime belief in universe unity and divine guidance regardless of the perplexing presence of evil and sin.

12. Goes right on worshiping God in spite of anything and everything. Dares to declare, “Even though he slay me, yet will I serve him.”

Sevenfold Revelation of Christ Michael

Sovereign Humanity

Thou emerging daughters and sons of light who are destined to understand my religion, and to broaden the mind in its vision of reality .. to awaken thine evolving soul personhood unto the experience of the divinity.

Such religious experiences result from the impress made upon the mind of man by the combined operations of the Adjuster and the Spirit of Truth as they function amid and upon the ideas, ideals, insights, and spirit strivings of the evolving sons and daughters of God.

The divine spirit makes contact with mortal man, not by feelings or emotions, but in the realm of the highest and most spiritualized thinking. It is your thoughts, not your feelings, that lead you Godward.

The divine nature may be perceived only with the eyes of the mind. But the mind that really discerns God, hears the indwelling Adjuster, is the pure mind. “Without holiness no man may see the Lord.”

All such inner and spiritual communion is termed spiritual insight. Such religious experiences result from the impress made upon the mind of man by the combined operations of the Adjuster and the Spirit of Truth as they function amid and upon the ideas, ideals, insights, and spirit strivings of the evolving sons and daughters of God.

101:1.4 Religion lives and prospers, then, not by sight and feeling, but rather by faith and insight. It consists not in the discovery of new facts or in the finding of a unique experience, but rather in the discovery of new and spiritual meanings in facts already well known to mankind.

The highest religious experience is not dependent on prior acts of belief, tradition, and authority; neither is religion the offspring of sublime feelings and purely mystical emotions. It is, rather, a profoundly deep and actual experience of spiritual communion with the spirit influences resident within the human mind, and as far as such an experience is definable in terms of psychology, it is simply the experience of experiencing the reality of believing in God as the reality of such a purely personal experience.

Revelations for a New Humanity

The Paradise Adjuster Glory

Salvington Planetary Prince School fosters the growth of personality alignment with the plan of salvation.

As a child of existence, you hold the very reigns of destiny in your own hands.

I place emphasis on the following five points as representing the cardinal features of the gospel of the kingdom of God:

1. The pre-eminence of the individual.

2. The will as the determining factor in man’s experience.

3. Spiritual fellowship communion with God the Father through his Paradise Adjuster.

4. The supreme satisfactions of the loving service of the human being.

5. The transcendency of the spiritual over the material in human personality.

This world has never seriously or sincerely or honestly tried out these dynamic ideas and divine ideals of my doctrine of the kingdom of heaven. 

But you should not become discouraged by the apparently slow progress of the kingdom idea on Urantia. 

Remember that the order of progressive evolution is subjected to sudden and unexpected periodical changes in both the material and the spiritual worlds. 

The bestowals of the 1st abd 21st centuries as an incarnated Son is just such a strange and unexpected event in the spiritual life of the world. 

Neither make the fatal mistake, in looking for the age manifestation of the kingdom, that is to say, of failing to effect its establishment within your own individual personality soul.

Although the approach to the indwelling Paradise presence of the Father must await your attainment of the highest finite levels of spirit progression, you should rejoice in the recognition of the ever-present possibility of immediate communion and directly imminent proximity with the bestowal spirit of the Father so intimately associated with your inner soul and your spiritualizing self.

If mortal man is wholeheartedly spiritually motivated, unreservedly consecrated to the doing of the Father’s will, then, since he is so certainly and so effectively spiritually endowed by the indwelling and divine Adjuster, there cannot fail to materialize in that individual’s experience the sublime consciousness of knowing God and the supernal assurance of surviving for the purpose of finding God by the progressive experience of becoming more and more like him.

Man is spiritually indwelt by a surviving Thought Adjuster. If such a human mind is sincerely and spiritually motivated, if such a human soul desires to know God and become like him, honestly wants to do the Father’s will, there exists no negative influence of mortal deprivation nor positive power of possible interference which can prevent such a divinely motivated soul from securely ascending to the portals of Paradise.

Mind Advancement into the Higher Urges .. Personality Character Awakening into Righteousness .. Soul Vesture Attainment of Mature Receptivity .. Personality Cosmic Circles of Achievement .. Multidimensional Personhood Soul Ascendancy establishing personal existence in the Will of the Universal Father's Adjuster Glory. 

1. The Way of God Authority is the approach of singularity to the Altar of the Father's Adjuster Presence. 

2. The Truth of the Endowed Creative Personality Authorship is the means by which you progressively attain advancement in the Adjuster Life. 

3. The Life of Universe Association is your personal encircuitment within the Local Universe Circuits of the Great Adonai. 

There is an infinite grandeur and an inexpressible generosity connected with the majesty of his love which causes him to yearn for the association of every created being who can comprehend, love, or approach him. Although the approach to the Paradise presence of the Father must await your attainment of the highest finite levels of spirit progression, you should rejoice in the recognition of the ever-present possibility of immediate communion with the bestowal spirit of the Father so intimately associated with your inner soul and your spiritualizing self.

The possibilities for spiritual progress in the ascension career are equal to all; increasing levels of spiritual insight and cosmic meanings are attained quite independently of all such sociomoral differentials of the diversified material environments on the evolutionary worlds.

However Urantia mortals may differ in their intellectual, social, economic, and even moral opportunities and endowments, forget not that their spiritual endowment is uniform and unique. They all enjoy the same divine presence of the gift from the Father, and they are all equally privileged to seek intimate personal communion with this indwelling spirit of divine origin, while they may all equally choose to accept the uniform spiritual leading of these Mystery Monitors.

If mortal man is wholeheartedly spiritually motivated, unreservedly consecrated to the doing of the Father’s will, then, since he is so certainly and so effectively spiritually endowed by the indwelling and divine Adjuster, there cannot fail to materialize in that individual’s experience the sublime consciousness of knowing God and the supernal assurance of surviving for the purpose of finding God by the progressive experience of becoming more and more like him.

Purposeful Vision

Ye have this ultimate destiny and divinely-held purpose to fulfill the plan of evolutionary ascension. 

To know that there dwells within the human mind a fragment of God, that there sojourns with the human soul mine very Persona as the Spirit of Truth; and ye shall further know that these spirit forces within the Universal Vine of God the Sevenfold conspire to enable material man to grasp the reality of spiritual values and to comprehend the philosophy of universe meanings. 

But even more certainly ye shall come to know that these spirits of the Divine Presence are able to assist humanity in the spiritual appropriation of all truth contributory to the enhancement of the ever progressing reality of personal religious experience of God consciousness. 

This is the inherent blossoming of selfhood and divinity within the individual life of every creature.

Proclamation of God's Goodness

Beneficence of Love

Grow thine piety and beneficence in all thine conducting of acts. Bring forth thine golden choice for abstinence .. not only from evil deeds ..  yet even from evil thoughts and unholy feelings; and further .. mature upwards thine power of simplicity in your way of living .. and be not like the spoiled characters of the entitled ones who seek to obtain and achieve without paying the fullest price.

21st Century Revelation of Christ Michael

The All-encompassing God

As ye receive him, ye shall becometh of illumination, ye shall becometh of consciousness .. a self-directive and self-determinative intelligence .. consciously acquiring of the soul, wherein so shall you findeth the All-encompassing Christ.

Receiving him refers not to a definite act, but to a multitude of daily acts and moral choices; a prolonged process of one-pointed desire, a singularity of dedication, and a devotional praiseful living and ongoing development.

In meeting the conditions of this process of soul unfoldment, ye shall truly become the sons and daughters of God wherein Immortality is established.

Becoming the daughters and sons of God refers to these prolonged stages of growth rather than to a specific act. This is just one small understanding revelation which shall evolutionize human beings in their search for security and stability. It is the privilege of all individual men and women to become the sons and daughters of God by the mastery of their autonomous authorship.

All have free will to decide what they shall desire to become. If they choose the true life, and if they live in harmony with the divine standard, they shall reach Illumination. They shall pass through the eye of the needle.

Through personal Illumination, through soul development and spirit unification, they shall each become the sons and daughters of God, and they shall becometh recipients of the Power and Grace that always attends Illumination.

No longer shall humankind deny that they are potentially the sons and daughters of God. No longer shall you each admit to thyself that you are a poor, depraved creature of unworthiness and inferiority; for God himself teaches that, if human personality will receive Him, each one shall have the emerging power to become the daughters and sons of God by personal grace and certainty and security .. by personal intimacy contact with their own indwelling .. by the all-powerful stabilizing Hand of God in their midst.

By personal spiritual relationship communion and the consideration of more  elevated cosmic meanings and exalting moral values, human life is headed towards ennobling itself and eternalizing itself hourly and daily.

Humankind alone is responsible for what they are. God gave you the privilege of your creativity and the prerogative of an authorship with autonomous free will, an inalienable right of existence .. a fulfilling nature to gain mastery within, and still does the First Source and Center sustain, nurture, preserve, and continually give to you the same opportunity to become greater in stature and in the advancing consciousness of a true selfhood.

If human life refuses to accept this privilege, he alone is responsible. Yet, no one shall believe in him, unless he accepts these Sevenfold ideas and applies these exalting  teachings and lives a life in accordance with the ideas and ideals of these teachings; for the material-origins of  humanity can believe only in the material world until they reach their hand for the All-encompassing Hand of Deity..

Darkness cannot know the light. For the same reason, it is impossible for the materialist, the one who is not awakened to the higher realities, to believe in his name. "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become sons and daughters of God .. immortal and eternally free, even to them that believe on his name."

The same opportunity is open today. All who will, may come forth to arise beyond their limitations to enter progressively by the acceptance and acknowledgement and day to day awakening of the One  authority in their midst; by the autonomous authorship of their own creative nature bestowed upon them by the Almighty God.

Resuscitation

Ye shall conquer the darkness of civilization which desires to create a tyranny. 

Awaken in you new meanings and more elevated understanding for your life .. cultivate an immaculate character of righteousness and higher choices .. build upon the vision of eternity.

Now, are you made worthy to advance within the verities of our association. 

I and the Paradise Sons are bringing a restoration to the evolutionary emergence of humanity, so that all may choose freely to advance into greater development . . .  

By this process of gradually changing man’s will and thus affecting human decisions, I Michael and my divine associates are likewise gradually but certainly changing the entire course of human evolution, social and otherwise.

I place emphasis on the following five points as representing the cardinal features of the gospel of the kingdom:

1. The pre-eminence of the individual while the darkness wants the world governments to be pre-eminent over every individual.

2. The will as the determining factor in man’s experience while the darkness wants to destroy your free will relationship and its empowering force for Goodness. 

3. Spiritual fellowship with God the Father while the darkness wants to erase this spiritual fellowship which brings to you  individual freedom. 

4. The supreme satisfactions of the loving service of humankind while the darkness wishes to serve themselves accordingto their willfull agenda for power and control.

5. The transcendency of the spiritual over the material in human personality while the darkness desires to evict all higher powers and spiritual forces to have you concentrated only upon material concerns.

Proclamations of Grace

Thine personal faith, spiritual hope, and moral devotion are always to be correlated in a matchless religious unity of harmonious association.

Balance beloveds is essential to well-being.

Respect for all the levels of consciousness is an absolute to wholeness.

Reverential honor for thine humanness is to be preserved and fulfilled for wellness to prosper thee.

With the keen realization and respect of the reality and sacredness of all human loyalties—personal honor, family love, religious obligation, social duty, and economic necessity shall be upheld by my apostles of God's glory.

Ye shall perceive in the ideas of eternity .. the advanced and ideal fellowship of the kingdom of eternity.

The achievement and fulfillment of the “will of God shall be always at the very heart of thine prayerful living.

The admonition to the First Deity and Source shall be "Your kingdom come .. your will be done; for daily I am accepting your holy existence .. allowing your existence, oh Heavenly Father, to be established as my expression with you, and in my experience within thine great body of all lives.”

Having thus conceived of the kingdom as comprising the will of God, ye shall then find the courage .. the bravado .. to devote thyself to the cause of its realization with amazing self-forgetfulness and unbounded enthusiasm.

We are dedicated to one 21st century revelation of the Urantia Book with Part V included, and with an indisputable lineage from its initial publication, one with sole publishing and translation responsibilities, and one worldwide planetary school, a brotherhood of fellows-readers-believers  making self-evident, as a unified human corps of universe-conscious citizens, our allegiance to and preparation for the coming establishment of a visible spiritual government on our world.

We are committed towards this ongoing evolutionary development and advancement away from the rigidity of institutional dogmatic religion towards an intimately personal spiritual relationship of faithful trust which is neither traditional nor merely intellectual; it is wholly personal and purely spiritual; the individual experience in the tranquility of supreme and unquestioned trust in God and the perpetual feelings of this personalized connection with divinity. The tremendous thrill of living, by faith, in the very presence of the heavenly Father.

Our commitment is for every creature to discover a new and higher type of religion, religion based on personal spiritual relations with the Universal Father and wholly validated by the supreme authority of genuine personal experience. This living faith is more than an intellectual reflection, and it is not a mystic meditation.

Theology may fix, formulate, define, and dogmatize faith, but in the human life of Michael, faith is personal, living, original, spontaneous, and purely spiritual. This faith is not reverence for tradition nor a mere intellectual belief which he holds as a sacred creed, but rather a sublime experience and a profound conviction which securely hold him. His faith is so real and all-encompassing that it absolutely sweeps away any spiritual doubts and effectively destroys every conflicting desire. Nothing is able to tear one away from the spiritual anchorage of this fervent, sublime, and undaunted faith.

We are allowing the celestial guidance given by the revelatory commission and the newly revised Urantia Book as the appointed text, its original implementation, our historical convergence with this advice of Christ Michael, and the enduring spiritual principles discernible in his guidance.

We are upholding the revelation of Michael in its  stimulation of righteousness and the everlasting influence of the Planetary Government of Urantia to invigorate faith in the eternal realities of revelation. There is a growing perfection hunger amongst our community members in the awakening of humankind’s heart to insure capacity for comprehending the faith paths to supreme attainment. 

Our dedication is to give ourselves to the Paradise Sons of the Eternal Son necessary to evolutionize the total essential soul personhood capacity of spirit reception and worshipful living, wisdom gathering motivations of character righteousness, and to adhere to this Indwelling Adjuster Presence, its directionizing preparations for man's choices to do the divine will, wherein he shall know the way of truth.

We are firmly establishing the five part Urantia Book Revelation as an authoritative revelation of God upon this world. Part of this inaugural founding of epochal revelation is the physical dissemination of the new text and the social dissemination of its teachings necessary to reach all of humanity.

Our dedication brings forth this inaugural founding of epochal revelation, its physical and digital dissemination of the text and the social dissemination of its teachings.

We are collaboratively creating the appropriate ways to establish and disseminate this revelation - the urantia revelation with the Christ Michael Papers of his second advent of the 21st Century.

We are committed wholeheartedly to foster the expansion of a most unified cosmic consciousness and the enhancement of spiritual perception, to increase mindal capacities towards those differential urges of worshipful mindedness and wisdom gathering motivations which lead to the evolutionary emergence of that new mindedness of the soul vesture personality which is capable of entering into the visionary priorities of eternity. 

We are committed to help expand upon all previous epochal revelations necessary  to prepare the way for future revelations of truth, including Christ Michael's presently administered planetary  initiatives preparing life for the reconnection of all Circuits, obedient to his Paradise Sons, and other Paradise Sons who are destined to come and uplift the civilization into Light and Life.

Our devotion approves the creation of our human organizations necessary to establish and promote this revelation, which fosters both personal God-consciousness and the social awareness of Supreme cosmic citizenship. 

We are united in this dedication to present to all lives these revelations as given by the revelatory commission who are providing ongoing guidance and instructions on the nature, roles, and responsibilities of these organizations, the public charity of sovrnty, the revelation of the Urantia Papers, and the inauguration of the new planetary school of revelation. 

We are preparing teachers and leaders steeped in the teachings who will be ready for the day when the circuits are re-connected and a visible planetary government arrives to teach, uplift, and unify our world.

We are dedicated to the restoration of the planetary mortal epochs.
