Spirit of Truth is the spirit of Jesus Christ!

“The coming of the Spirit of Truth purifies the human heart and leads the recipient to formulate a life purpose single to the will of God and the welfare of men. The material spirit of selfishness has been swallowed up in this new spiritual bestowal of selflessness. Pentecost, then and now, signifies that the Jesus of history has become the divine Son of living experience. The joy of this outpoured spirit, when it is consciously experienced in human life, is a tonic for health, a stimulus for mind, and an unfailing energy for the soul.” - The Urantia Book 194:3:19

“However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come.” - John 16:13

“John asked Jesus, “Master, what is the kingdom of heaven?” And Jesus answered: “The kingdom of heaven consists in these three essentials: first, recognition of the fact of the sovereignty of God; second, belief in the truth of sonship with God; and third, faith in the effectiveness of the supreme human desire to do the will of God — to be like God. And this is the good news of the gospel: that by faith every mortal may have all these essentials of salvation.”” - The Urantia Book 140:10.9

Stand Up. Take Up Your Bed. Walk.

CHRIST MICHAEL CENTER — Thu, 04 Dec 2025 03:54:15 -0500

There was this guy who Jesus "assisted" (somewhat) to stand up; take up his bed and walk.

The Midwayers who narrated the story commented that in this particular case, it was not a miracle as such. ...that all the man needed to have done was just that - stand up; take up his bed and walk. He had it within himself to do so. But he languished in confusion, ignorance, setbacks, "downcast", and stuff. There are many people like that today.

147:3.5 One man who had been many years downcast and grievously afflicted by the infirmities of his troubled mind, rejoiced at Jesus’ words and, picking up his bed, went forth to his home, even though it was the Sabbath day. This afflicted man had waited all these years for somebody to help him; he was such a victim of the feeling of his own helplessness that he had never once entertained the idea of helping himself which proved to be the one thing he had to do in order to effect recovery — take up his bed and walk.

AYO'S MONTHLY BLOG ON: CHILDLIKE NATURALNESS

Ayo Pax — Wed, 03 Dec 2025 10:21:52 -0500

AYO'S MONTHLY BLOG ON: CHILDLIKE NATURALNESS

By the true words from "The Urantia Book," “He says that anyone who has seen him has seen the Father.”

^157:6.13 "Nevertheless, I tell you that the Father and I are one. He who has seen me has seen the Father. My Father is working with me in all these things, and he will never leave me alone in my mission, even as I will never forsake you when you presently go forth to proclaim this gospel throughout the world.

This statement entails the essence of faith, revealing how one person can embody the divine presence. In this post, we will explore the meaning behind this quote and its relevance in our daily lives.

Understanding the Quote:

At its core, you must understand that this quote points at a direct connection between Jesus and God. It suggests that by observing Jesus’s actions, teachings, and the love he extended to others, we can gain insight into the nature of God. This relationship encourages us to seek understanding beyond traditional religious practices, fostering a personal connection with the divine.

The Childlike Naturalness of Faith:

The quote also speaks to the "childlike naturalness" of Jesus's actions. In a world often clouded by expectations and pretenses, Jesus demonstrates how faith can be simple and genuine. This quality is incredibly impactful today, where many feel lost or burdened by complex religious rules.

Live Examples: Finding Childlike Faith

1. Acts of Kindness in Everyday Life: As I had ever quoted in one of my blogs,: - Just like Jesus’s humble acts of service, a simple gesture—such as helping a neighbor or volunteering at a local shelter—turns ordinary moments into reflections of divine love.

2. Curiosity and Exploration: - Children ask questions freely and seek understanding without fear. Emulating this curiosity can lead us to deeper truths about divinity, encouraging open dialogue and exploration within religious communities.

3. Trust in the Divine: - Whether it’s through prayer, meditation, or moments of quiet reflection, placing trust in God’s plan can be transformative. This trust mirrors the simplicity that Jesus exhibited, reminding us to let go and have faith.

The Assurance of God's Presence:

The part of the quote that notes Jesus’s certainty about God resonates powerfully today. Many individuals grapple with doubts and uncertainties in their spiritual journeys. Jesus exemplifies how deep understanding, rooted in love and compassion, can provide unwavering assurance.

Daily Reflections:

The Importance of Community: - Engaging in community worship, attending services, or participating in group discussions fosters a sense of belonging and reminds us of God’s presence through shared experiences.

Personal Experiences of Faith:

Many find strength in personal testimonies that highlight moments when they felt God’s guidance or presence. These stories reinforce the belief that the divine is always near.

Conclusion"

The quote from "The Urantia Book" invites us to view Jesus not just as a historical figure, but as a living embodiment of God’s nature. By embracing childlike faith and seeking out the divine in our daily actions, we can cultivate a deeper understanding of spiritual truths. Let us strive to reflect Jesus’s love and assurance in our lives, drawing closer to the Father through our everyday experiences.

Ayo..

Receive MORE or Lose EVERYTHING

CHRIST MICHAEL CENTER — Tue, 02 Dec 2025 08:50:53 -0500

"Whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them." - Jesus, Matthew 13:12

We need to spend TIME to nuture our gifts and talents. TIME to be the best in school; on the job; in our family lives; in our spiritual lives, etc. TIME to personally study, learn, improve, meditate, etc.

Instead of spending 8 hours watching sports or soap operas each week, why not slash it to 4 or 2? Instead of going to Church, Temple or Mosque everyday, why not reduce it to once or twice weekly? Some people are doing poorly and hoping for a "miracle" WITHOUT putting in the WORK required.

God will not give you any MIRACLE! He will give it to those who PRAY and put in the WORK required. When you do your part, then you are making use of "what you have". As a result, God will give MORE to you. But if you give all kinds of excuses and fail to discipline yourself with regards to self-improvement, then even the little you have shall be taken away from you. No amount of prayers, anointing oil, etc shall bring "the miracle". FAITH without WORK is dead!

"Whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them."

Encounters in God

CHRIST MICHAEL CENTER — Sun, 30 Nov 2025 01:21:50 -0500

DEEP truths!

To really KNOW GOD and be close to Him, you have to be wholeheartedly dedicated to having, in your own personal life, "the realities of experience - spiritual experience" - experiences in God; encounters with God; experiences in the supernatural. "Teachings" alone would not cut it. Teachings ought to point you to or assist you towards having deep and powerful encounters with God; otherwise, forget it. Teachings without solid "encounters in God" will just get you tied down in the muddy waters of self-righteous religion. Please, check this out:

"Jesus well knew that God can be known only by the realities of experience; never can he be understood by the mere teaching of the mind. Jesus taught his apostles that, while they never could fully understand God, they could most certainly know him, even as they had known the Son of Man. You can know God, not by understanding what Jesus said, but by knowing what Jesus was. Jesus was a revelation of God." - UB 169:4.4, The Urantia Book, Part IV, Paper 169, "Last Teaching at Pella". http://www.urantiabook.org/newbook/papers/p169.htm#P169_4_0

"We're thrilled to share the news of our today's victory, *Urantia Infants Football Academy"

"We're thrilled to share the news of our today's victory, *Urantia Infants Football Academy"

"We're thrilled to share the news of our today's victory, *Urantia Infants Football Academy* triumphing over Ncwano cell Academy with score of 5:1 in a thrilling friendly match on the road! This win is a testament to the power of teamwork, dedication and divine guidance.

As we reflect on the teachings of The Urantia Book, we're reminded that the Father in heaven is not a space to potency, but rather a spirit presence (paper1:1.1) we believe that our time spirit, unity and strategy were the keys to success.

The Man in the Mirror

CHRIST MICHAEL CENTER — Wed, 26 Nov 2025 06:01:30 -0500

"Jesus is the spiritual lens in human likeness which makes visible to the material creature Him who is invisible. He is your elder brother who, in the flesh, makes known to you a Being of infinite attributes whom not even the celestial hosts can presume fully to understand. But all of this must consist in the personal experience of the individual believer." - Urantia Book 169:4.13, "The Father and His Kingdom"

http://www.urantiabook.org/newbook/papers/p169.htm#P169_4_0

Jesus is the "man in the mirror". And as we wholeheartedly and consistently look at the mirror, we become transformed more and more to be like Him - like the man in the mirror. To look at the mirror is to see Jesus - to see His spiritual nature - character, attributes, power, love, etc. And as we see, we are pulled closer to God the Father because Jesus is a revelation of the Father. Yes, "Jesus is a revelation of the Father". This is why he said, "If you have seen me, you have seen the Father. "

The habit of looking at the mirror involves personal, daily spiritual experiences. It is these experiences of the faith-liberated individual believer that reveals God as FATHER - the Father of spirits who has infinite, unlimited wonderful attributes. These attributes begin to rub off on us, making us supernatural human beings, mighty warriors in this life and in the hereafter. Such is the stuffs of those who the great Paul of Tarsus calls, "More Than Conquerors". For we are more than conquerors through Jesus Christ our Lord. Hallelujah!

...new creation reality stuffs. :)

Praying for the Death of your Enemies

CHRIST MICHAEL CENTER — Tue, 25 Nov 2025 04:35:48 -0500

Praying for the death of your enemies runs contrary to the gospel of the Kingdom of God. Our Heavenly Father desires that all men and women should come to repentance, embrace His salvation and come to the knowledge of truth. Jesus made this very clear in his earth life and teachings. Also let's not forget that God prepares a table before us IN THE PRESENCE OF our enemies - in their presence NOT in their absence.

And why do you think it's done in their presence? The answer is simple: to give them another opportunity to see the goodness of God and open their hearts to embrace salvation and love.

We may pray for the destruction, the termination, the thwarting, the nullification and the annihilation of the schemes, strategies, plans and works of our enemies but not for the death of the individuals themselves. Whether a man dies or lives is outside our jurisdiction. That must be left for God to deal with. He is the ultimate Judge. That's His call not ours.
