How will the Urantia book revelations be of help to my ministry?
How will the Urantia book revelations be of help to my ministry?
• 1. Presenting an educational strategy that uses progressive ways to bring people to appreciate
revealed truth and the potential benefits of the inner life. Spreading the teachings of The Urantia Book
using parallel teachings, especially learning by doing.
• 2. The expansion of our soul:
• 3. The development of a new mind, an intermediate mind, a morontial mind.
• 4. The expansion of our knowledge of universe reality.
• 5. The progressive actualization of our cosmic consciousness.
• 6. The progressive gain of self-mastery.
• 7. Improving our ability to communicate with our Thought Adjuster.
• 8. Expanding our ability to love like Jesus loved us.
• 9. To help people receive and deal with new facts, I find it really useful to know them, to have a
feel for what they are interested in. By connecting first at that level, we can build trust and confidence
even in a few minutes. Attentive and kind listening is always an asset. Keeping in mind that God's
presence indwells them, it is good to verify with them if they have the time and if they are willing to
engage in a deeper conversation, not forcing anything. If they are willing, I would ask questions about
their own quest. In doing so, we can prevent and hopefully avoid the pitfalls of projecting the old into
the new by starting with what is already present in their lives. By projection I mean unconsciously taking
unwanted emotions you don’t like about yourself and attributing them to someone else.
• 10. We know deep within that we have been blessed with an amazing gift, the 5th Epochal
Revelation. But how are we receiving and perceiving these incomparable and transformative teachings?
Let's explore ways to enter into a most fascinating journey, a journey of only 18 inches, from the head to
the morontial heart, from outside in, which will enable us to act and respond to our brothers and sisters
and to situations from inside out.
• 11. To move from facts (read) to meanings (study) to values (living the teachings). Let's examine
simple ways to encourage the ones we interact with to go inward, upward, onward and outward and
along the way, experience another type of activity, inner spiritual activity. Let's explore how we can
whet their appetites and encourage them to go within and discover, progressively, the marvels and the
spiritual riches of the inner life in their daily living.
