Received by Chris.
Teacher Ophelius: "Today's message is about the 'Great Divide.'
What do I mean by this? Like a chasm between two mountain ranges, this
divide is wide and it separates the peoples of the earth into two classes,
'Those that know God and those that do not.' When it comes to personality
survival, which side you belong too matters greatly. These two classes
may also be identified as 'Those who survive and those who do not.'
This is not meant to strike fear into the hearts of the reader, for
it is a statement of fact, yet all is not so 'black or white' when we
consider mercy and forgiveness.
"God honors even the tiniest flicker of faith in a man or woman
and it is His supreme desire that none should perish and that all shall
come to the light. Even those who know God and have led a rebellious
life shall be offered a probationary period after death to prove themselves
and work their way up from the twilight realms into the realms of light.
Those who spurn God's mercy and have made the conscious choice to deny
the sovereignty of God will become unreal and will ingest the seeds
of annihilation. Even those who have that flicker of faith will, after
death, willfully choose not to take the Grand Adventure and seek perfection
in eternity. God honors that choice, and that soul will then be absorbed
back into the oneness of infinity and shall no more have identity or
personality.
"There are so many people today who are living on the surface of
life -- good people who serve their communities, raise their children
to be respectful, and pay their taxes, yet they do not actively seek
a relationship with God or desire to have a spiritual nature. This is
most unfortunate, and for many, this blindness is due to a generational
misleading, which started long ago with the Lucifer rebellion, the defection
of the now deposed Planetary Prince, Caligastia, and the default of
the material son and daughter, Adam and Eve. The teachings of the one
true God were nearly extinct on Urantia were it not for the emergency
service of Machiventa Melchizedek, the Sage of Salem, in Abraham's time,
who sent his missionaries out across the globe to seed the hearts and
minds of those peoples who were utterly lost and did not know God.
"And so it is for these surface dwellers today that it is so important
that they fan that flicker of faith that they will be offered mercy
on the day when they are called to eternity. It is this emergency that
I call you to service, my friends, that they be given one more chance
to know the One True God before the 'parting of the ways.' All deficiencies
and lack of opportunity shall be compensated for, yet the spark of faith
is still required to continue the journey. Religious affiliation is
not a requirement, only the tiniest of desire to know God and accept
his mercy. Still, the rewards for living a God-knowing life, in loving
service to God and man, will reap joy beyond human comprehension, and
for you my students on the path, much glory awaits you in the realms
of light. I admonish you to bring your brothers and sisters across the
Great Divide so they may also share in the glories of eternal life.
"Peace to you,
"The Circle of Seven."
