Urantia Africa Revelation Outreach in Uganda | Photo Presentation with Revelation Inspired Music from Africa

In every generation of man his human teachers of truth appear on the earth and bring new and higher teachings about the gift of the Father (eternal life) and the gift of the Creator Son (the ministry of salvation) known on this world as Jesus Christ to every individual who receives these divine gifts.

Every citizen who is born from above understands that He alone is the way, the truth and the life. No one goes to the Father except by Him. 

This Video is to promote the works of these human teachers of truth who are now active in the world and ministering to today's generation. We represent a religion open to all and without dogma or ceremony. A true religion,  the religion of the spirit, is identical to the religion lived, taught and demonstrated to the world by Our Creator.

It is also to promote the new 5th epochal revelations recently received from Divine Sons of God on earth and to disseminate these new teachings to all nations and to all peoples. This Video presents the Revelation Outreach occurring in Uganda and now spreading to the Congo.

Choose Urantia Unity

I believe the Urantia movement is approaching its tipping point – a point when it will seem like “suddenly” the whole world knows about this revelation.  Most of us pray for that day, expecting it might be a time of enlightenment.  And for some, many, it might be.  But I also believe it will be a time of controversy and great testing for us. 

Are we ready for this test?

Right now the perceptions of the Urantia community suffer from a self-inflicted wound.  That wound is our split, the fracture that occurred in Urantia Brotherhood about 35 years ago.  Since that time, our movement has steadily lost not only its initial momentum, but some credibility as well.

The Fellowship and Association, the two organizations that operate with literally identical purposes, continue to be in damaging competition.  It is wasteful to duplicate effort and compete for donors and volunteers.  It is demoralizing for those who have read and been inspired by The Urantia Book to look at us and wonder how we can expect to transform the world when we won’t first transform ourselves.

It hurts our credibility to hold on to pettiness and resentment.  No one can truly read and understand even part of the Urantia Book and think that those qualities are harmonious with God’s plans for us.

There is no shame in the split.  The shame is in what has happened in the wake of the split, and the ugly words both sides have spoken about the other - quite the opposite of truth, beauty, and goodness. 

We must end this, today, together, and forever.  The world is about to discover The Urantia Book, and will be taking a close look at those who claim to follow its teachings. 

The decisions we make together have the potential to set us on a new path of growth and health. But progress - the watchword of the universe - will require a combination of boldness and wisdom. 

Where are boldness and wisdom?  When I talk to people in our community about the benefits of the two organizations becoming one, people often quote to me the part of the book about spiritual unity not uniformity.  I am not talking about spiritual uniformity.  I don’t think anyone can look at the diversity of expression and service in the Fellowship or Association and think for a second that we want uniformity.  This excuse is not wise.  It is absurd.

Some have said to me we need to just wait for the old guard to die off, the older generation, before we can pursue organizational unity.  I reject that suggestion as passive, and frankly a little lazy. This suggestion is not bold, it's cowardly.

We are supposed to do the hard work.  Where is our courage?  Why would we just wait it out when there is a bigger victory that is waiting for us? 

“The greatest affliction of the cosmos is never to have been afflicted. Mortals only learn wisdom by experiencing tribulation.” [48:7.14 (556.14)]

The purpose of affliction is to have a chance to achieve a bigger victory, and the bigger victory before us is forgiveness. 

Real forgiveness.  Hard, but worth it. 

And if you don’t believe me, just look at Jesus on the cross.

It will take intention and a steady effort to turn this big ship, to do the Father’s will without caving into emotion and the attitudes that have become the mental poisons about which we have been warned:  “…fear, anger, envy, jealousy, suspicion, and intolerance likewise tremendously interfere with the spiritual progress of the evolving soul.” [110:1.5 (1204.3)]

Forgiving tolerance.  Enduring peace.

We are stronger together.  God placed us all at the beginning of this revelation, when he would need what Christy called Soldiers of the Circles.  As these soldiers, it is our job to be the advance team, to seed this revelation and nurture it so that these new seeds take root in good soil and grow. 

WE have to be good soil.  WE have to cultivate good soil, and make hard and barren soil fertile through tolerance, acceptance, friendship, and love.  Those things are like water and sunlight.  They give seeds a safe place to grow and thrive.

Unity is attractive.  Like a magnet, it draws people into its cohesive power.  This unhealed part of our history is an incredible opportunity to demonstrate that we walk our talk, even when it’s hard.  Especially when it’s hard. 

We must look at all challenges as solvable even if the solution is beyond our comprehension or desires. 

Imagine being part of a movement that has been strengthened by conflict and healed through love and forgiveness?  What a powerful testimony to the rewards of choosing the Father’s way.

I invite you to join me in this fervent pursuit of unity, no matter what it takes. Because the strong seeding of this revelation depends not on our ability to preach the gospel but to prove the gospel.

We are not alone.  A host of celestial helpers stand ready to assist just as soon as we relinquish our stronghold on self-righteousness and really trust the Father. 

The Prince of Peace rules our universe.  And God waits for us to choose.

It indicates you are committed to healing forgiveness and enduring peace.  Your signature puts appropriate pressure on the leadership of both organizations to go back to the negotiation table and not leave until one new organization has been formed, an umbrella organization committed to effectively sharing the revelation and creating an exemplary community where seekers can spiritually thrive.
