The Urantia Uganda Epochal Revelation Outreach is proceeding with great enthusiasm in Uganda the Pearl of Africa. This blog is to give an update on recent events.

A teacher in Uganda Gumpi Andrew Cohen has not only engaged in an extensive study of the revelation but has also began to introduce these new revelations to his students after regular school hours. Helping them to integrate the revelation with their studies in the bible.

These young people are now inviting him to come to their families and villages to teach them about the Urantia Revelations.

Twelve hours ago he wrote on the Urantia Uganda Facebook Group and posted these images.

STUDENTS TRYING TO RELATE THE NEW REVELATION WITH THE BIBLE.

ADDRESSING ANOTHER TEAM OF STUDENTS.
ABOUT THE NEW REVELATION

On March 11,2020 Andrew wrote to me in an email.

Teaching the new revelation is proving to be so interesting to me! As I teach my own students every day after normal class lessons in the evening hours.

After teaching I give them chance to explain their understanding of the new book as they call it.

I also give them chance to ask questions which I answer to their certification as a function of learning.

My student asked what I learned from the story of Moses on paper 96/ 1058.

After teaching them.

 "This is a bout service and commitment, unity, and self awareness."

I also asked her how our community would be if we had such leaders around us!

She then requested me to organise a lecture with her family members and the community a round her family.

On March 18th Faith Anthony wrote me on Messenger.

Yes at school but me and my religious friend at school we want to start new Bible teaching. As I am waiting to start the Urantia teaching also

My message to those mistreating orphans

My message to those mistreating orphans

No parent wishes to die and leave his or her child an orphan. Bear in mind that on one has ever made an agreement with God on the day of death, they often find themselves there and once it comes like it or not you must hit the exit door.

 “Man is born crying, live grumbling and dies unsatisfied”.

We have seen many people at the point of death, they accept all but just cry over their blood they are leaving behind. They also wish they can do all they can to make their lives and families happy. So do all you can but remember that you never made an agreement with God meaning you can also hit the exit door anytime. But if so, would you need your children to be treated the way your acting The world would be a better place if we loved each other on a daily basis. If such existed, we would not be having wars, abduction, rampant killings, torture and mistreatment among many other antisocial practices.

I feel the pain that others feel, it makes me unhappy and I shed tears while seeing our fellow God believers being tortured and at the same time living in desperate situations.

TO THE FRIENDLY WORLD

Not everyone who loses a parent or guardian has someone behind to look after him or her thereafter. Such people end up going on streets, practice other bad activities so that they acquire a living. These people are innocent without any reason as to why they are in such as a state only they find in themselves in such a situation. Be a blessing to others as God commanded us, you can be the hope and a key to somebody else’s happiness and hope. The clothes no longer useful to you are so important to somebody else. They might be the ones someone has never dreamt to put on. The same applies to shoes, mattress, bed sheets, play materials, food and many others. Just be kind and give out them to the one in need. A mere word “thanks” will earn you a thousand blessings. To help someone does not always mean you have much to give. Some people are helping when they are also struggling. That is what we call “real love”. Remember that there someone who is left to die just because they need the single dollar that you think it is too little to give to someone. There is another one who is dying because of hunger. I call you to be a blessing, a source of happiness to someone and a person someone will never forget for a lifetime. If you have seen this  message, forward and share so that we create an ideal life for the needy.

A Parable from the greatest of all Teachers.

Said Jesus: "A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell into the hands of cruel brigands, who robbed him, stripped him and beat him, and departing, left him half dead. Very soon, by chance, a certain priest was going down that way, and when he came upon the wounded man, seeing his sorry plight, he passed by on the other side of the road. And in like manner a Levite also, when he came along and saw the man, passed by on the other side. Now, about this time, a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed down to Jericho, came across this wounded man; and when he saw how he had been robbed and beaten, he was moved with compassion, and going over to him, he bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine, and setting the man upon his own beast, brought him here to the inn and took care of him. And on the morrow he took out some money and, giving it to the host, said: `Take good care of my friend, and if the expense is more, when I come back again, I will repay you.' Now let me ask you: Which of these three turned out to be the neighbor of him who fell among the robbers?" And when the lawyer perceived that he had fallen into his own snare, he answered, "He who showed mercy on him." And Jesus said, "Go and do likewise."

Pandemic Warfare | China is Confronting the COVID-19 Epidemic. Was It Man-Made? An Act of of Bio-warfare?

By Peter Koenig
Global Research, February 29, 2020

The new coronavirus, 2019-nCoV, also called COVID19, has as of this date killed about 3,000 people and infected some 87,000 around the globe, the vast majority of them in China. The virus has spread to at least 56 countries. 

The new coronavirus, 2019-nCoV, also called COVID-19, has as of this date resulted in more than 3,000 deaths and infected more than 80,000 people Worldwide, the vast majority of them in China

The epidemic is largely confined to Mainland China. 

While the virus has spread to at least 56  countries according to the WHO, the numbers of confirmed cases are low: 4691 confirmed  cases outside Mainland China. (See table right) 

Source: WHO, February 28, 2020. 51 countries according to WHO

What the western media fails to address is that there is the possibility that the virus could have been “man-made” in one or more of the numerous US bio-warfare laboratories.

Western media also are silent about the fact that the virus appears to be largely affecting ethnic Chinese, meaning, it targets specifically Chinese DNA. Almost all of the deaths and confirmed cases in the 51 countries and territories to which the virus has spread, are of Chinese origin.

The virus appears to be strengthening, as it mutates over time, making its control even more difficult. Will it eventually break the “Chinese DNA boundaries” and affect also other DNA types, i.e. western “Caucasian” people.

But the west also expects Chinese scientists and bio-researchers to overcome the epidemic and stop the virus from further mutating, therefore reducing the western infection risk.

Despite early hopes that a vaccine may be found soon – until now there has been little progress in this direction. However, Cuba’s antiviral Recombinant Interferon Alpha 2B (IFNrec) was chosen by Chinese medical and bio-researchers to combat the coronavirus.

Interestingly, Interferon had been discovered in Cuba 39 years ago, at the very onset of Cuba’s biotechnology programme in 1981. But it is not widely used in the world, even though it could save countless lives and cure countless patients (mainly diabetics), simply because of the US boycott that does not allow marketing of medication Made in Cuba.

Nevertheless, the COVID19 infection rate seems to have been gradually declining in the last three weeks. And there is no doubt that China will overcome this epidemic. Yet, the world must wake up to the fact that this could be an act of biological warfare.

Precedents: Bird Flu, African Swine Flu affecting China

In the last two years, since 2018 alone, China was hit by several types of bird flu (H7N4 and H7N9) in 2018 and yet another strain just in January 2020 which was overshadowed by the more serious COVID-2019.

There was also an outbreak of the African swine Flu (2018), killing millions of pigs. And there was a massive food crop destruction (2019 – mostly corn and soybeans) by the so-called “armyworms”.

Compensating for the impacts on the supply of pork, corn and soybean, China resorted to importing theses commodities– and most of the imports came from the US.

Were these ‘outbreaks’ which  had destructive impacts on China’s economy coincidental? They have created instability, food price inflation and a dependence on imported agricultural products from the US.

The western media has been playing up the so-called Trump tariff war with China, while hidden from the limelight and in parallel, more serious warfare – bio-warfare – was going on.

In fact, little is known in the west about these previous biological attacks by the US-led west, aiming at damaging massively China’s economy – as well as heightening China’s dependence on imports from the US; in addition to damaging China morally, thereby, they, the west, believe (wrongly), weakening the level of resistance. A real war with bombs and guns, maybe nuclear, aiming at total destruction, cannot be ruled out.

Let’s remember the Big Picture – namely that this is in whatever way you want to turn it, a bio-war against China, and perhaps the first step of an all-out war against China’s rising economic power, and foremost against China’s solid currency, the yuan which may soon take over as the world’s chief reserve currency.

This would mean the fall of the US-dollar hegemony, the only force that keeps the empire alive and kicking, other than its military strength which is non-sustainable, as it aims only at destruction abroad – but leaving behind a rapidly faltering economy at home. Precisely the same pattern brought down the Roman Empire some 2000 years ago.

Too Many “Coincidences”: The October 2019 Simulation of a High Level Pandemic 

There are too many “coincidences” to conclude that this strengthened coronavirus – considerably stronger than SARS, the one of the 2002 / 2003 epidemic – ‘escaped’ a Wuhan lab by accident, or as the west would like to present it: by negligence.

First, there were the Military Olympics in October in Wuhan (18 – 27 October 2019), where about 200 American soldiers participated; the first cases of 2019-nCoV fever were discovered about two weeks later – two weeks is the average gestation period from infection to outbreak.

.

Event 201

Second, there was Event 201, on October 18, 2019, at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, in Baltimore, Maryland, sponsored by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the World Economic Forum (WEF – the corporatocracy representing Big Weapons, Big Pharma and Big Money), and the John Hopkins Institute.

The theme was simulating a High-Level Pandemic Exercise – and yes, the simulation produced 65 million deaths. Just a couple of weeks before the first COVID-19 victims were identified.

Curiously, in their defense the sponsors of Event 201, now say,

“We are not now predicting that the nCoV-2019 (which was also used as the name of the simulation) outbreak will kill 65 million people. Although our tabletop exercise included a mock novel coronavirus, the inputs we used for modeling the potential impact of that fictional virus are not similar to nCoV-2019.”

One doesn’t have to be a rocket scientist to conclude that the simulation and actual outbreak is a very strange coincidence. (See below)

Hope Orphans Centre-Iganga

A touching story about the woman in great pain which calls for your attention.

The brothers and sister who have been following our facebook posts and updates on different sites, I remember to have brought to you a story about kasango ayubu and their grandmother who was taking care of the six children who became total orphans after the death of their mother in 2011 and their father who passed in December 2019.

It wasn't possible for this woman to take care of the children and thereafter some went on streets for survival where we found ayubu who led us to place where their grandmother was living. We found them at Bukawongo village, Imanyiro subcounty in Mayuge district, After we adopted Ayubu and his sister to HOCI.

This family was living in unbearable condition to the extent that even getting what to eat sometimes was not possible.

Last month she got an accident and later got some treatment which we had believed that it worked for her but it was not the case.

The sickness resumed and the health condition went from worse to worst.
She was then taken to the nearby hospital and later referred to Iganga District Hospital for further treatment. This woman has been admitted to Iganga District hospital in the female ward on bed No 8 The medical results shows that there is born missorder and the kidney got a problem. From the Doctors, this woman has to first get some treatment for born missorder for at least one week before going for operation. This woman can not just be directly taken for operation until she get treatment for the born missorder.i

Dear brethren,

I am humbled by the calling upon my life each day I walk heading to where He sends me I count it worthy of the cost.

Because  the heart of Our Father cries  seeing the poor and needy.On the ground I see a needful Humanity and I say to myself O my Father God where is your  Hand.?

Having said that, I am in obedience to the calling and passionate to the vision.I will deliver as the Lord provides for His Children in partnership with men and women of God Our Father.

From the bottom of my heart let us  do it I say, I will deliver and a servant.Praying for you brother and God's hand of provision.

God bless.

The US is unprepared for the consequences of its assassination of Qassem Soleimani, if only because it knows nothing about the reality of the man it murdered, and can’t gauge the impact of his death on Iran or the Middle East.

Qassem Soleimani, an Iranian military commander whose paramilitary organization, known as the Quds Force, helped position Iran as a modern regional power, was assassinated on January 3, 2020, on order of the President of the United States, Donald Trump. American political leaders of both major parties have been united in their description of Soleimani as an evil man whose death should be celebrated, even while the consequences of his demise remain unknown.

She falls back onto the bed, turns away and covers her mouth with the side of her hijab out of modesty. She only turns to look up at him after he reassures her that it is good (end of verse 30). Gabriel speaks verses 31 through 33 boldly, loud, with the joy of 2,000 years of anticipation in his voice. His voice calms in verse 35, soothing her while still making a bold statement. After verse 35, he walks over to her, opens his large wings, and places them around her. He then steps back and speaks verses 36 and 37 normally. Mary's eyes grow wide as she fills with excitement and exclaims to Gabriel verse 38.

Act VII: Jesus born 

No actors to speak, only motioning. This Act is divided into 3 parts. Each part has to take place while its song is playing. When the song from Part 1 ends, the song from Part 2 begins, and so on. 

Setting: Have 3 doors on stage: 2 shut, 1 the innkeeper opens. The stage to be split (those 2 closed doors in the back on the left side of the stage, the 1 door that the innkeeper opens is to be in the middle of the stage sideways, hence splitting the stage into sides. The right side of the stage has no doors in the back.) 

Part 1 of Act VIII: 

Time: a few minutes BC

~ Song to play during scene: "Winter Snow" by Audrey Assad and Chris Tomlin (choir to sing). The song is 3 minutes long.

a) Joseph knocks on the first door with no response given. He knocks on the second door with no response given. He knocks on the third door in the center of the stage and the innkeeper gets up and opens the door.

b) Joseph mouths to the innkeeper, begging for entry. The innkeeper finally allows them in, they walk through the door. (That is the first 1:30 of the song.) 

c) (The second half of the song) Mary and Joseph quickly settle in while the innkeeper departs. Mary suddenly has baby Jesus. She holds him. Joseph is relieved.

d) (For the last 30 seconds of the song) Joseph and Mary admire Him while He is lying in the manger.

Part 2 of Act VIII: 

~ Song to play during scene: "Star of Wonder" by Aaron Shust (choir to sing). The song is 4 minutes long total but Part 2 of the Act is only going to take place during the first 2:50 of this song (the instrumental part).

Time: a few minutes AD 

a) The 3 Wise Men enter from the same door in the center of the stage (left). (Once they have entered, draw the curtain down on that side of the stage that they came from.)

b) They take turns giving their 3 gifts to lay at Jesus' manger. After each one gives their gift, they stay in a bowed position. 

Part 3 of Act VIII:

~ Song to play during scene: The second half of "Star of Wonder" by Aaron Schust (choir to sing). For this vocal Part, angels join in loudly. The duration of the remainder of this song is 1:20 long. 

a) A lot of angels appear above the stage and start singing loudly. Daniel, Isaiah, Moses, Aaron, Adam and Eve are up there with them. The characters on the bottom of the stage stay in the same positions they were in at the end of Part 2. (Joseph and Mary are admiring baby Jesus in the manger and the 3 wise men are bowed at the manger with the gifts layed out) 

b) At the end of the song, after the climax, the lights go out. 

~ There will be no song for this transition. Draw the curtain down on the right side of the stage (where most of this Act took place). Give the audience time to applaud. 

Act VIII: Conclusion / Jesus dies on Cross

Raise the curtains on both sides of the stage. The stage will still be split in 2 sides.

~ Song to play during scene: "Mary Did You Know" by Pentatonix (choir to sing). No dialogue is to take place during this Act. 

Right Side of Stage: Keep Mary and Joseph on their side of the stage with baby Jesus, along with only two angels up in the raftors (or above the scene); everyone else has departed. Their eyes are closed. 

Left Side of Stage: Grown Jesus is on the other side of the stage, hanging on the cross. God and the other angels are there with Him. 

a) (Right side of stage) Mary is holding baby Jesus (with her eyes closed), rocking him. Joseph is adoring him (with his eyes closed). They cannot actually hear the angels. 

b) (Left side of stage) The other angels are around Jesus with their heads down. God's head is turned to the side, away from Jesus. All characters eyes are closed. 

Curtain draws down at the end of the song. 

At the end of the play, all characters may come out and do a bow for the audience. 

~ Song to Play during bow: "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" (choir to sing) 

TO THE POWER ELITE

FROM ENOCH 

The following words are taken directly from 1 Enoch, a prophetic work written around 100 BC written about the end of the age in his, then distant future. Verb tenses and pronouns have been harmonized. The individual verses have been reordered from the original work in order to produce an easily readable coherent narrative. I believe that this narrative represents God's judgment and predictions regarding the rulers and leaders who plunge the world of today into an ever deepening chaos. The words in parentheses are my clarifications, the rest are from Enoch excepting the last verse which is taken from Ezekiel. Now then we have:

"Before the flood, oppression existed and prevailed on earth. Great punishment took place; and there was a consummation of all iniquity, which was cut off from its root, and every fabric raised by it passed away (The Great Flood). Iniquity however, shall again be renewed, and consummated on earth.

"In the seventh week a perverse generation shall arise; abundant shall be its deeds, and all its deeds perverse. Every act of crime, and every act of oppression and impiety, shall be a second time embraced. The powerful shall transgress, and think themselves gods; while evil shall be multiplied among them. Therefore iniquity, sin, blasphemy, tyranny, and every evil work, shall increase; and when transgression, impiety, and uncleanness also shall increase, then upon them all shall great punishment be inflicted from heaven. Contemplating the earth as they (the powerful) do, they who are men, put elegance upon them more than married women, and both together more so than unmarried ones, every where arraying themselves in majesty, in magnificence, in authority, and in silver: but gold, purple, honor, and wealth, like water, flow away. Erudition therefore and wisdom are not theirs. And in it shall they perish, together with their riches, with all their glory, and with their honors. They are sinners who counsel men to commit crime craftily. They are found in every place, every counsel possess a little of them. Their strength shall be in their riches, and their faith in the gods whom they have formed themselves. They shall deny the name of God, and shall expel Him from their places of worship, in which they assemble. They build up their houses with crime and acquire gold and silver. They will condemn the angels of heaven, shall lift up their hands against the Most high, shall tread upon and inhabit the earth, exhibiting all their works of iniquity.

"Woe to you who are rich, for in your riches have you trusted; but from your riches you shall be removed; because you have not remembered the Most High in the days of your prosperity. Your wealth makes you resemble saints, but your hearts reproach you, knowing that you are sinners. Woe to you who feed upon the glory of the corn, and drink the strength of the root of the spring, and in the pride of your power tread down the humble. Woe to you who frustrate the word of the righteous; for to you there shall be no hope of life. Woe to those who write down the word of falsehood, and the word of the wicked; for their falsehood they record, that they may hear and not forget folly. Your faces shall be covered with shame; while every deed, strengthened by crime, shall be rejected. All your evil deeds are disclosed in the heaven; and that none of your oppressive acts are concealed and secret. In heaven they are daily written down before the Most High. This word shall testify against you, for the remembrance of crime."

"The world shall be marked for destruction; and all men should be on the lookout for the path of integrity. The Son of man (whom all will behold), shall raise up kings and the mighty from their couches, and kings from their thrones; he shall loosen the bridles of the powerful, and break in pieces the teeth of sinners. He shall hurl rulers from their thrones and their dominions; because they will not exalt and praise God, nor humble themselves before Him, by whom their kingdoms were granted to them. Yet shall not the mighty rulers of that period be destroyed; but shall be delivered into the hands of the righteous and the holy. Nor thence forwards shall any obtain commiseration from God, because their lives in this world will have been completed. The countenance likewise of the mighty shall he (Son of Man) cast down. In the day of trouble evil shall be heaped up upon sinners. In those days the kings of the earth and the mighty men, who have gained the world by the work of their own hands, will become humble in countenance. They shall not be saved by gold and by silver. Nor shall they have it in their power to secure themselves, or fly. Trouble shall come upon them, as upon a woman in travail, whose labor is severe, when her child comes to the mouth of the womb, and she finds it difficult to bring forth. One portion of them shall look upon another. They shall be astonished. Their faces shall be full of confusion; darkness shall be added to their faces. Darkness shall be their habitation, and worms shall be their bed; nor from that their beds shall they hope to be again raised, because they exalted not the name of God. From that period those who possess the earth shall not be powerful and exalted. Neither shall they be capable of beholding the countenances of the holy, for the light of the countenances of the holy, the righteous, and the elect, has been seen by God. They (the powerful) shall perish from before the face of God, and from the face of his earth. But in the day of their trouble, rest shall be on the earth. Iniquity will pass away like a shadow. Every work of the ungodly will disappear from the whole earth. Sin shall perish in eternal darkness, nor be seen for evermore."

"God will change the face of the earth; He will bless it; and cause those whom He has elected to dwell upon it. But those who have committed sin and iniquity shall not tread upon it; for God has seen them. The righteous ones He will satisfy with peace, placing them before Himself." The Lord God thus declares, "Repent therefore, and live! For it is not My desire that anyone shall die." (Ezekiel 18:32)
