Dear Bob,
Thank you for sharing your insightful and timely message. Your words of caution regarding the Second Coming, the Shroud of Turin, and Project Bluebeam are well-taken and resonate deeply.
As you astutely pointed out, the Urantia revelation emphasizes the importance of holding fast to our faith in these perilous times. It's crucial to remember that our faith is not based on external events or timelines but on our personal relationship with God the Father.
Your clarification on Jesus' return is also appreciated. The Urantia Book indeed teaches that Jesus' return will be a spiritual event, visible only to spiritual eyes. This understanding helps us avoid being misled by false claims or manipulated by advanced technology.
Regarding the Shroud of Turin, your skepticism is warranted. While some may argue that scientific authentication supports its authenticity, we must consider the possibility of advanced technology being used to create a convincing forgery.
Your final words of encouragement to keep our faith and stay vigilant are particularly relevant. In these uncertain times, it's essential to remain grounded in our spiritual values and principles.
Thank you for your thought-provoking message, Bob. May we all continue to cultivate our faith, wisdom, and discernment as we navigate these complex times.
Godspeed,
JuliusThis is what I think regarding this element of Bob's comment "and since only spiritual eyes can see him and all eyes will see him, I suggest our world has a way to go before again being visited by our Creator." My observation that the 19 morontia appearances of Jesus would not have been visible to mortal eyes without the assistance of the hosts of heaven. We should also meditate on the fact that only true believers were graced to witness these 19 morontia appearances. So in consideration of the promised second coming to Urantia we should take into account that this world alone is managed by a Sovereign Master Paradise Creator Son of God as our Planetary Prince of Peace and fully subjected to his will for Urantia. A will that has already assured us that his gospel will in an age to come rule this very world. Keeping in mind that "118:6.5 what a son desires and the Father wills will certainly come to pass."
I fully understand Bob's comment in that we have been well advised by the revelators not to make the Gospel of Jesus dependent upon his promised return so each generation living before his return do not lose faith because the return was not in the lifetime of that believer. It is also true that Jesus desired we also attempt to understand the long distance view of the future when his Gospel does rule this very world. If there were no spiritual significance in his promise to return he would not of made it public. Also what does it matter if he comes to us or we go to him upon our graduation from this world.
What Jesus said about his coming should also influence our preparation and awareness of such a time on Urantia.
176:2.6 "And now concerning the travail of Jerusalem, about which I have spoken to you, even this generation will not pass away until my words are fulfilled; but concerning the times of the coming again of the Son of Man, no one in heaven or on earth may presume to speak. But you should be wise regarding the ripening of an age; you should be alert to discern the signs of the times. You know when the fig tree shows its tender branches and puts forth its leaves that summer is near. Likewise, when the world has passed through the long winter of material-mindedness and you discern the coming of the spiritual springtime of a new dispensation, should you know that the summertime of a new visitation draws near.
With the arrival of the 5th Epochal Revelation we are IN "the spiritual springtime" The question to be answered is how long is this period of spiritual awakening '
I am sharing an image with a much meditated upon truth postulate Monica and myself have held in mind and repeated often which today I put into an image to share with our fellow believers.
May 2025 bring many spiritual victories in our work for this day and generation. Thank you Bob for stimulating progressive reflections upon our mission at Spiritual Family Network. Your contributions are greatly appreciated and your personal outlooks and viewpoints very valuable and educational for our growing members and visitors.

Excellent, Bob(as I agree!), and while the first response from FB is fair, it is not always the OUTSIDE world that will present dangers to our faith, but WE ourselves, in doubts about ourwelves, relationships, exactly what is God doing nowadays...for me, etc etc.
While this may not reflect your thoughts, Bob, not the point, however, I DO, most strenuously agree, that Part IV is the go-to right now. As I believe, it was the real reason the Revelation was presented to us...I always describe this epochal revelation as the 5th time the Father has intervened in the affairs of mankind to right us on our pathway. And since our path is a fleshy, material one, it behooves us to pay attention to the "restatement" of the life and teachings of Jesus! The rest, we will get later...
