Your soul is your real you. Your soul exists in a realm between your body and your spirit. It impinges on or interacts with your body and your spirit more directly. It is your soul that is the YOU that continues to exist after your life on Earth is done. It is your soul that receives the gift of salvation; that gets born again or born from above. Your body does not get born again. Your spirit does not need salvation. 

Your spirit is pure and perfect. Your spirit has the perfection of "the Source" - God the Father. Your spirit came from the Father to live in you; to spiritualize your thinking; to help you to become perfect as the Father is perfect, slowly but surely. Your spirit is the image of God in you because it is an exact replica of God, miniaturized in a way you can contain. This is why this spirit is called the spark of God, the candle light of God, the still small voice, the divine fractal, the divine fragment of God in you. 

Your spirit lives in your mind, in the superconscious level of your mind or the holy of holies of your mind. This is the highest dimension of your mind where sin does not exist. It is pure gold. It is far above your conscious mind, subconscious mind, etc. This is how God in his perfection, power, love and glory can live in you even when you give yourself over to ungodliness or unrighteous deeds. Even when you succumb to temptations, God is still in you because there's a place in you where evil, sin and iniquity cannot approach. You are "fearfully and wonderfully made" indeed! 

One Love!

Of the spirit, your indwelling spirit, it is written, "At some time, during human sleep, has been temporarily detached from the mind of mortal incarceration to perform some exploit of liaison, contact, reregistration, or other extrahuman service associated with the spiritual administration of the world of assignment." (Urantia Book 109:2.6)

"Truly of the human race has it been said, “You are of God” because “he who dwells in love dwells in God, and God in him.” Even in wrongdoing you torment the indwelling gift of God, for the Thought Adjuster must needs go through the consequences of evil thinking with the human mind of its incarceration." - Urantia Book 3:1.5 

At salvation, who gets born again: your soul or your spirit? Jesus said, "I am on earth solely to comfort the minds, liberate the spirits, and save the souls of men." Clearly, the Master made a distinction between the mind, the spirit and the soul. 

Ezekiel puts it rightly in saying: the soul that sins, shall die. (Ezekiel 18:20) The prophet did not say the human spirit that sins shall die. Nowhere will you find God saying that your spirit, the still small voice within (1 Kings 19:12), can die or shall die. It's not possible because your spirit (Job 32:8) is perfect and came directly from the heavenly Father. And this same spirit returns to The Father at the death of your physical body. (Ecclesiastes 12:7) 

This spirit is God the Father within you and lives in the golden holy of holies deep within you or in the superconscious level of your mind. Sin does not exist there. It is perfectly clean in there. Pure. Golden. Pure, pristine gold. This is the Father's presence within. The First Source and Divine Center within.

However, this spirit within - your spirit, depends on your will before it can act freely to bring all kinds of blessings to your total mind and your soul. The spirit will not force anything on you. Your cooperation is needed. You have to align your heart, your will and your way to that of God and to do so wholeheartedly. Then, the spirit will emerge from the innermost temple or innermost court within, to manifest greatly in your life: in your mind, your heart, your soul - to manifest through you mightily to the glory of God the Father. 

The spirit sits at the citadel of your being - the citadel of the spirit, the throne within waiting patiently for you to grant permission. So, when you - your soul gets born again or born from above, the indwelling spirit fragment of God is liberated! In accepting the Father's gift of salvation, you have aligned your will with that of God. When you make a decision, to, as it were, surrender all to God, his spirit will latch onto your personality and your will to do more work in you, for you and with you. This is why you sense or perceive a great liberation of your spirit at the new birth (salvation). Your spirit is liberated NOT recreated. Liberate is the right word not recreate. Your spirit receives more freedom to soar and do so much more for you and through you. Your spirit, the Inner Voice, is, in that sense, set free. 

It is not that the spirit was in chains, in bondage, in darkness. No! There's no darkness in the holy of holies within. There's no darkness in the superconscious level of your mind. Only light! However, the inner spirit can be said to be restricted or incarcerated within you because of the limitations placed upon it for the very fact that it has come to live inside a circumscribed mortal body and by design, is dependent on your will or cooperation in oder to fully express itself through you. 

I have chosen to use the word, "it" for the indwelling spirit because by design, this spirit from the Father is "prepersonal". It has come into you with no personality of its own and is dependent on your personality to live through you. The still small voice is dependent on both your personality and your will in order to bless you mightily... ...Dependent or waits for you to use your will to align with its will - the will of God. These are some reasons why your spirit, your Thought Adjuster is said to be in the mind of mortal incarceration. The spirit is incarcerated in your mind. And will experience more and more liberation to do more work for you and through you, the more you align your will with the Father's will. 

Please remember, your spirit does not get born again. It is your soul that gets born again or recreated (if you like that word). Your spirit cannot be recreated. That's God in you and God cannot be recreated. However, your spirit can be liberated! The spirit can be liberated in the context of the explanation above. 

Glory! Hallelujah! 

One Love!

The still small voice within you is your spirit and is God in you. This is your percent (100%) perfect Thought Adjuster, that lives in your mind, in the Holy of Holies of your mind - your superconscious mind, working in you to get you, your soul, to attain divine perfection. This indwelling spirit is here to lead you Godward. This Thought Adjuster, divine spark of God or candle light of God came from Paradise and will eventually take you to Paradise, on its way back to Paradise, if you cooperate. In the process of leading you to Paradise, you, your soul will experience tremendous transformations till you become a perfected spirit. 

There are so many lessons and blessings and opportunities for amazing growth and expansion in living in a world that is not yet perfect. These lessons and blessings are received and enjoyed by mortal and celestial beings alike. These lessons and blessings and growth are very, very valuable in order for us, in partnership with divinity, to successfully carry out great tasks in eternity, in our eternal future. If we allow the Spirit of Truth to teach us and expand to us, the eternal divine plan and purpose of God, then everything will begin to make so much sense, as to why we are here on earth! Hallelujah! 

One Love. Peace and Blessings!

And then ultimately reached Paradise - attained Paradise; became "perfect as the Father in heaven is perfect"; stood, as it were, face-to-face before God the Universal Father; received a very unique divine embrace; and were mustered into, "The Corp of the Finality". Finaliters are those who, in the Bible are called, "spirits of just men made perfect". (Hebrews 12:23) 

Hebrews 12:23, "To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect," 

As we speak, there are finaliters present on Earth (Urantia). They are always here. And you can  tell your Thought Adjuster that you desire to fellowship with them; to have direct spiritual encounters with them; to be ministered to, directly, one-on-one, by them, etc. Your request may be granted! Hallelujah!  

Urantia Book 31:0.11, "One or more companies of the mortal finaliters are constantly in service on Urantia. There is no domain of universe service to which they are not assigned; they function universally and with alternating and equal periods of assigned duty and free service." Please, did you catch that? It has been revealed, "One or more companies of the mortal finaliters are constantly in service on Urantia." So much amazing experiences await you, a sincere and honest truth seeker! Oh! Glory! Hallelujah! 

Please, note that finaliters are grouped in companies. A company of finaliters is made up of 1,000 individuals or beings. Of this 1,000, 990 are "glorified mortals". This means 990 members of each company of finaliters were once mortals or free will intelligent mortals. 

These glorified mortals make up 990 of the 1,000 members of a finaliter company. The remaining slot of 10 are allocated to: 

1. Havona Natives.

2. Gravity Messengers. 

3. Adopted Seraphim.

4. Glorified Material Sons.

5. Glorified Midway Creatures. 

6. The Evangels of Light.

And this is the reason why I said finaliters are, for the most part, folks who were once mortals. In each company of finaliters, 990 were once mortals. To learn more about finaliters, please read: The Urantia Book, Paper 31, "The Corps of the Finality"https://www.urantia.org/urantia-book-standardized/paper-31-corps-finality.

Peace and Blessings!

We don't have demonic possession anymore as we used to have before Pentecost (Urantia Book 77:7. What we have are cases of demonic oppression, not possession. There is a big difference. Strong or severe cases of demonic oppression may look like demonic possession, but they are not the same.
With demonic possession, rebel spirits are living inside the mind of the individual. This is not possible today because Thought Adjusters are now living in people's minds all over the world - in the minds of masses upon masses of people. Since Pentecost, Thought Adjusters (still, small voice within, the heavenly Father's spirit fragment) have been coming en-masse to indwelling mortals. Now add the outpouring of the Spirit of Truth upon all flesh.

For a human being to be demon possessed or possessed by any rebel spirit, his Thought Adjuster has to leave him, and the Spirit of Truth has to leave as well. In addition, he has to be cut off from the powerful influence of the Holy Spirit as well as the loving ministry of the angelic hosts. Such a case is very, very difficult, if not almost impossible to occur today. This is my understanding of these things.

We should not confuse demonic oppression with demonic possession. They are not the same. Also, some cases are not even demonic oppression. They are medical problems, psychiatric problems, psychological problems, mental problems, etc. You need the right knowledge, wisdom, understanding, counsel, courage, intuition, and a worshipful soul (worship) to be able to know or discern the difference. The seven adjutant mind-spirits come in very handy here.

Freedom From Demonic Influence or Demonic Oppression

People cannot be possessed by demons or rebel spirit beings today. But they can be troubled by them. They can be oppressed. To totally prevent or overcome demonic oppression, you need to walk by FAITH and LOVE - divine love. In short, you need to immerse yourself in *the fruits of the spirit.* This is your surest and greatest guarantee of total, 100% freedom from demonic oppression.

Today, some people, believers and unbelievers alike, are suffering from demonic oppression in one area of their lives or the other. They have allowed themselves, knowingly or unknowingly, to be entangled by negative energies, demonic, satanic spiritual circuits, demonic thought forms, etc...

Such brothers and sisters can be totally free as they grow in walking in the fruits of the spirit and in spiritual power. A quicker way to bring freedom, from my own experience in ministry is for someone else of greater manifestation of spiritual power and fruits of the spirit to pray for them. However, please, this does not substitute for walking in the fruits of the spirit. Rather, they go hand-in-hand.

Pray for them and pray with them. Distance cannot hinder such a prayer of faith. Even if they are miles apart, the prayer will still work. If they are standing face-to-face to each other, prayer by the laying on of hands or stretching your hands towards the individual does wonders.

I have prayed for people face-to-face and seen deliverance from demonic strongholds in their lives, taking place. Sometimes, the person may fall down and start shaking violently. Sometimes, you may even hear the rebel spirits speak using the person's voice. This can happen even though the individual is NOT demon possessed. Sometimes, it's not even a rebel spirit speaking. Sometimes, it's the troubled mind of the person speaking... This is a little complex or complicated matter.

Sometimes, I am taken up in the realm of the spirit; I travel long distances to meet people to pray for them and break demonic strongholds in their lives and in their communities. Sometimes, in a community, there may be negative, evil, demonic energies or circuits in a particular location, troubling the community. And God will send some faith-sons, faith-liberated souls: in the realm of the spirit, their souls with their Thought Adjusters will travel to the location and in partnership with other powerful and loving celestial beings, personalities and entities, they will shatter the negative, demonic energies to pieces and repurpose them to do good things.

Energy cannot be destroyed but it can be repurposed. It can be transformed and put to good use. Sometimes, the rebel spirits are not even literally present in a location, but their wicked energies or circuits are present. I know some Urantia Book students will argue against some of the things I have said. But I won't argue. Nothing beats practical, tangible experience. Just let me catch you one day face-to-face and then lay hands on you or have you see me lay hands on someone who is troubled by negative, demonic influence. Certain strongholds may manifest and be broken right before your eyes. Glory to God!

+ + +

Here, below, we see that although people cannot be demon possessed today, it is possible for them to be oppressed or troubled by demons or rebel spirit beings. It is possible for an individual to be cursed by their wicked presence - if he or she allows it. Sometimes, an individual can allow something without being very conscious of doing so. It is so important to always submit to the leading of your indwelling spirit, Thought Adjuster! It becomes so much easier to be spirit-led when you wholeheartedly commit to walking in the fruits of the spirit: loving service, peace, sincere fairness, joy, faith, undying hope, confiding trust, etc.

Urantia Book 53:8.6
"The last act of Michael before leaving Urantia was to offer mercy to Caligastia and Daligastia, but they spurned his tender proffer. Caligastia, your apostate Planetary Prince, is still free on Urantia to prosecute his nefarious designs, but he has absolutely no power to enter the minds of men, neither can he draw near to their souls to tempt or corrupt them unless they really desire to be cursed with his wicked presence."

Please, take a close look at UB 53:8.6. Right there, we learn that a wicked, rebel spirit CANNOT enter your mind and CANNOT corrupt your soul EXCEPT you really desire to be cursed with his wicked presence. Sadly, there are some people today who actually really desire to be cursed with the wicked presence of unclean, demonic spirits. These people wholeheartedly and persistently give themselves over to devils.
In such cases, the Thought Adjuster and the Spirit of Truth can leave that person. This makes it possible for a rebel spirit to enter the mind of the individual and to corrupt his soul. This is a very severe case of demonic oppression and can lead to demonic possession. Such cases are rare.

This is why I believe that even though demonic possession is a thing of the past, it is still possible IF someone really desires to be cursed with a demonic presence. Such a desire can get the Thought Adjuster and Spirit of Truth to leave. This makes the person open for all kinds of weird, demonic stuffs...

+ + +

Now, please consider this twist:
Rebel spirits can enter the mind of a man or a woman and terribly corrupt his or her soul IF HE OR SHE REALLY DESIRES TO BE CURSED WITH THEIR WICKED PRESENCE.
Now, how much more, if you really desire to be blessed by God's glorious, loving, and all-powerful divine presence?
Some people say they want God's presence and mighty spiritual power! But they do not yet walk in SPIRITUAL POWER. The key is YOUR DESIRE! Hallelujah!
How great is your DESIRE?
How really hungry are you for God?
This is what will determine the number of very, very powerful and very, very loving celestial beings that will come to you to embrace you, love you, bless you, protect you, guide you, empower you, etc, etc.
Please, what is the level and quality of YOUR DESIRE?
You can become very, very great and very, very powerful in God's kingdom, walking in love and spiritual power. It's all up to you!

Psalm 42:1-2b
"As the deer pants for the water brooks,
So pants my soul for You, O God.
My soul thirsts for God, for the living God."
