Today I received this message:

"I don’t believe it’s our assignments to spread the Urantia teachings anywhere aside from in our own hearts. "

What do you think about this opinion?

Love, Soren

    "Dear Soren,

    Such a claim makes no sense to me. If people would do that, then Revelation would swiftly whither and be forgotten, and the next generations would rarely be in touch with it.

    I chose this excerpt from The Urantia Book to close my book "Apocalypse - Your Faith Will Save You":

    "What a sorry sight for successive generations of the professed followers of Jesus to say, regarding their stewardship of divine truth: “Here, Master, is the truth you committed to us a hundred or a thousand years ago. We have lost nothing; we have faithfully preserved all you gave us; we have allowed no changes to be made in that which you taught us; here is the truth you gave us.” But such a plea concerning spiritual indolence will not justify the barren steward of truth in the presence of the Master. In accordance with the truth committed to your hands will the Master of truth require a reckoning.
    In the next world you will be asked to give an account of the endowments and stewardships of this world. Whether inherent talents are few or many, a just and merciful reckoning must be faced. If endowments are used only in selfish pursuits and no thought is bestowed upon the higher duty of obtaining increased yield of the fruits of the spirit, as they are manifested in the ever-expanding service of men and the worship of God, such selfish stewards must accept the consequences of their deliberate choosing."

    This way we see how we must do much more than only feed our own hearts with the Revelation. If we do that we are not serving our fellow-humans to the utmost of our abilities, and surely we are not trusting their own abilities to absorb the very Truth that has set us free. The Revelation has come to all of us, and it depends on each of us deciding to send it forth for every human creature. That is the Great Commission given by Jesus to us, all of his followers and believers."

    "I think that it is wholly senseless. Is he/she suggesting that they gave us the Revelation to secretly keep it in a drawer?"

    The evil one, brpther...you know full well what the Revelation did for you...you wanted to share it! No one wants to become like the servant of the wealthy man who only kept his one "talent" safe...what happened to him?!

    Remember:

    In accordance with the truth(the UB!) committed to your hands will the Master of truth require a reckoning. (BELIEVE IT!)

    176:3.8 (1918.1)In the next world you will be asked to give an account of the endowments and stewardships of this world. Whether inherent talents are few or many, a just and merciful reckoning must be faced. If endowments are used only in selfish pursuits and no thought is bestowed upon the higher duty of obtaining increased yield of the fruits of the spirit, as they are manifested in the ever-expanding service of men and the worship of God, such selfish stewards must accept the consequences of their deliberate choosing.

    The evil one trying to sow seeds of doubt to the half-hearted...
