The Supreme Being and You
We discuss a few different subjects in this podcast, including:
What draws people to the Urantia Book?
How do we partner with God?
Why does it matter about the decisions we make today?
1
00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:20,280
Welcome to another edition of
the Arancho Radio podcast and
2
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:23,280
thank you David Dinger for
providing such great
3
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:28,120
introductory music.
And we have a lot to cover on
4
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:30,120
this edition of the Uranchi
Radio Podcast.
5
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:34,040
I assure you we are going to
cover some very interesting
6
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:39,680
subject matter.
Also, we'll answer a few very
7
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:43,720
good emails and talk about an
essay that I read recently by
8
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:48,520
Chuck Thurston, who is involved
over there at I think it's
9
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:50,640
Uranchi University or the
Uranchia.
10
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:53,160
They do a lot of videos with
Derek.
11
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:59,250
Is it Samaras?
And he wrote a incredible essay
12
00:00:59,250 --> 00:01:03,210
that someone sent to me in
response to a podcast I had done
13
00:01:03,210 --> 00:01:05,690
recently on the Lucifer
rebellion.
14
00:01:06,290 --> 00:01:08,810
And I want to thank that person
for sending the e-mail.
15
00:01:08,810 --> 00:01:13,850
But the I'm I'm probably going
to try to post the Chuck
16
00:01:13,850 --> 00:01:17,410
Thurston essay because it delves
into a lot of things that are
17
00:01:18,010 --> 00:01:19,930
that are just.
And I and I want to actually try
18
00:01:19,930 --> 00:01:23,860
to get him on too.
To go into it because it covers
19
00:01:23,860 --> 00:01:27,780
a lot of what's going on today
in the world and the way the
20
00:01:27,780 --> 00:01:31,340
ideological struggle between
good and evil and and
21
00:01:31,380 --> 00:01:35,180
materialism and spirituality and
it's just it's just chock full
22
00:01:35,180 --> 00:01:38,260
of good information.
And I don't want to, I don't
23
00:01:38,260 --> 00:01:40,860
want to.
I want to give it its due.
24
00:01:41,380 --> 00:01:43,780
So hopefully we'll get Chuck on
in the next couple weeks.
25
00:01:43,780 --> 00:01:48,380
We hope so and we'll talk about
his essay, but I will refer to
26
00:01:48,380 --> 00:01:53,010
it a little bit in this.
Particular subject of this
27
00:01:53,010 --> 00:01:56,490
podcast, we're going to be
talking about the Supreme Being
28
00:01:56,490 --> 00:01:59,050
and its relationship to the
individual.
29
00:01:59,290 --> 00:02:02,610
So we'll get that.
Also we have some, like I said,
30
00:02:02,650 --> 00:02:05,730
a good e-mail question we can
kind of dive into.
31
00:02:06,930 --> 00:02:11,330
And I also want to share with
you that another e-mail that I
32
00:02:11,330 --> 00:02:14,890
got from someone and I want to
share with you some some works
33
00:02:14,890 --> 00:02:19,090
that were produced a few years
ago by a gentleman in Northern
34
00:02:19,090 --> 00:02:21,380
California.
That I that I think you'll
35
00:02:21,380 --> 00:02:24,700
really enjoy hearing about.
So we'll cover all of that talk
36
00:02:24,700 --> 00:02:28,540
about the Supreme Being and
we'll pay a few bills. 1st and
37
00:02:28,540 --> 00:02:30,780
welcome to the Arancha Radio
Podcast.
38
00:02:32,500 --> 00:02:33,940
Okay.
Welcome back to the Arancha
39
00:02:33,940 --> 00:02:37,500
Radio Podcast.
My name is Jim Watkins and I've
40
00:02:37,500 --> 00:02:42,140
been a lifelong reader.
I've now read the book more.
41
00:02:42,820 --> 00:02:48,060
I picked it up when I was 19 or
20 and I've been on this earth
42
00:02:48,060 --> 00:02:51,830
for. 60 years.
So I've actually been on the
43
00:02:51,830 --> 00:02:57,710
earth with the knowledge of the
Arantia book more than not being
44
00:02:57,710 --> 00:03:00,670
aware of the Arantia book which
was the 1st 20 years of my life.
45
00:03:02,430 --> 00:03:06,950
So for 40 years I've known about
the revelation in my 60 year
46
00:03:06,950 --> 00:03:08,670
life and I'm really happy about
that.
47
00:03:09,350 --> 00:03:11,790
Really I am.
I got a great e-mail from
48
00:03:11,790 --> 00:03:16,390
someone who listens to the
podcast and the question was why
49
00:03:16,390 --> 00:03:19,310
is it so hard to get people?
Interested in the Rancho Book
50
00:03:20,590 --> 00:03:23,030
Now drawing from my own
experiences, which I
51
00:03:23,270 --> 00:03:26,750
coincidentally included in the
opening of my new, as of yet
52
00:03:26,750 --> 00:03:28,950
unfinished book, A New
Perspective.
53
00:03:28,950 --> 00:03:31,670
How the Rancho book will
facilitate a spiritual
54
00:03:31,670 --> 00:03:34,750
renaissance.
It goes into my early expense
55
00:03:35,150 --> 00:03:38,830
early, early experiences when I
tried to share the book with
56
00:03:38,830 --> 00:03:41,710
certain family and friends when
I first started reading the
57
00:03:41,710 --> 00:03:46,870
Rancho Book, and I think I got a
lot of people interested over
58
00:03:46,870 --> 00:03:50,730
the years.
But many people, you know, I
59
00:03:50,730 --> 00:03:52,410
would loan the book out to
people.
60
00:03:53,010 --> 00:03:55,650
And a lot of people that I
thought would be receptive to it
61
00:03:56,330 --> 00:03:59,330
just gave the book back.
And they were always nice about
62
00:03:59,330 --> 00:04:01,410
it.
But then they always kind of
63
00:04:01,650 --> 00:04:04,050
acted differently.
Many of them acted differently
64
00:04:04,530 --> 00:04:06,130
and never really wanted to talk
about it.
65
00:04:06,130 --> 00:04:09,490
I had one friend who told me
that they thought the book was
66
00:04:09,610 --> 00:04:14,570
absolutely fascinating, but he
felt like and he actually told
67
00:04:14,570 --> 00:04:16,850
me, he says, how do I know this
book is true?
68
00:04:17,820 --> 00:04:21,140
How can I invest my time in
something if I don't know it's
69
00:04:21,140 --> 00:04:25,060
true?
So it does take a commitment.
70
00:04:25,220 --> 00:04:27,140
Even the revelators were
astonished.
71
00:04:27,580 --> 00:04:30,660
I am told in the early days when
the reception of the original
72
00:04:30,660 --> 00:04:35,980
forum they they would say things
like do you people realize what
73
00:04:35,980 --> 00:04:40,300
you have in your possession?
And you will find that mentioned
74
00:04:40,300 --> 00:04:44,220
in the early testimony from Bill
Sadler and some of the readers
75
00:04:44,220 --> 00:04:47,660
back in the 40s.
You know, I I knew a woman.
76
00:04:47,660 --> 00:04:53,100
I was introduced to a woman back
in the 90s, I think mid 90s.
77
00:04:53,380 --> 00:04:56,820
My mom lived in Phoenix and I
went to visit her and of course
78
00:04:56,820 --> 00:04:59,180
she knew how much I enjoyed the
Arantia book.
79
00:04:59,860 --> 00:05:01,660
And my mom actually was a big
supporter.
80
00:05:01,660 --> 00:05:05,900
She read the Arantia book and
and really thought it was the
81
00:05:05,900 --> 00:05:09,780
most important book she'd ever
read anyway.
82
00:05:09,780 --> 00:05:11,780
She knew this woman.
They had met.
83
00:05:12,530 --> 00:05:14,450
And she was always bragging
about her son.
84
00:05:14,450 --> 00:05:16,290
So it came up about the Arantia
book.
85
00:05:16,730 --> 00:05:19,570
And so I was introduced to my
mom's friend who I am sorry, I
86
00:05:19,570 --> 00:05:24,090
don't have her name, but she was
in her 80s or 90s and she said
87
00:05:24,570 --> 00:05:26,770
and she was part of the early
forum.
88
00:05:28,130 --> 00:05:30,650
Her boyfriend was in the forum.
So she would go to these
89
00:05:30,650 --> 00:05:34,130
meetings at Diversey there in
Chicago.
90
00:05:34,690 --> 00:05:37,930
And initially she would just go
to be with her boyfriend.
91
00:05:38,490 --> 00:05:41,170
And she remarked to me, she goes
he was really into this book,
92
00:05:41,170 --> 00:05:43,110
but.
Really, I was more interested in
93
00:05:43,110 --> 00:05:46,070
him, and I didn't get into the
book until much later.
94
00:05:47,950 --> 00:05:51,070
So you've got that story.
And then on the other hand, you
95
00:05:51,070 --> 00:05:53,870
know, I passed the the book, the
Rancho book on to several
96
00:05:53,870 --> 00:05:57,630
friends who absolutely love the
book, and it changed their life
97
00:05:57,630 --> 00:06:01,790
almost right away.
So I think my experience is that
98
00:06:01,790 --> 00:06:04,430
it depends on two important
things.
99
00:06:04,430 --> 00:06:09,510
One is how hungry a person might
be for the truth and where they
100
00:06:09,510 --> 00:06:12,110
might be in their life.
At the time that you hand them
101
00:06:12,110 --> 00:06:14,750
the book.
Now, if you run into a person
102
00:06:15,150 --> 00:06:17,950
who is at a point of their life
where they're sincerely looking
103
00:06:17,950 --> 00:06:22,030
for real answers, that's when I
think the Urancho book has the
104
00:06:22,030 --> 00:06:26,230
most appeal.
So if you give it to someone and
105
00:06:26,230 --> 00:06:29,910
they're not necessarily looking
for it, you might just be
106
00:06:29,910 --> 00:06:34,830
wasting your time.
So that's my my answer to that
107
00:06:34,830 --> 00:06:38,110
e-mail, but I will tell you that
that e-mail led to me going
108
00:06:38,110 --> 00:06:41,540
through some of my boxes.
And I found a book that I bought
109
00:06:41,540 --> 00:06:44,540
a few years ago.
I don't remember where I saw it,
110
00:06:44,540 --> 00:06:50,700
but it was by David Bradley, and
it's White Egret Publications,
111
00:06:50,700 --> 00:06:52,340
and he lives in Northern
California.
112
00:06:53,060 --> 00:06:55,820
And the book is called An
Introduction to the Urancho
113
00:06:55,820 --> 00:06:58,020
Revelation.
And I bought a copy.
114
00:06:58,020 --> 00:07:01,340
It was like 15 bucks.
I think you could still get them
115
00:07:01,340 --> 00:07:04,380
online.
Although I did call David and I
116
00:07:04,380 --> 00:07:05,900
said, are you still publishing
the book?
117
00:07:05,900 --> 00:07:07,940
And he said, well, I took it off
of Amazon.
118
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,400
Because they kept charging me
too much.
119
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:15,560
So I'm going to give you a phone
number and if you are a big time
120
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,920
your Rancho book reader or a
long time your Rancho book
121
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:23,040
reader and you maybe want to
have a reference book, something
122
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:27,560
that you could give to somebody
that sort of gives a simplistic
123
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:29,840
overview of what the Rancho book
is all about.
124
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:34,480
It's got some interesting cool
fold out maps that sort of give
125
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:38,010
you a perspective of.
Of the universe, you know based
126
00:07:38,010 --> 00:07:41,010
on the Urancho book narrative.
So again the book is called An
127
00:07:41,010 --> 00:07:46,090
Introduction to the Urancho
Revelation and the the author is
128
00:07:46,090 --> 00:07:50,890
David Bradley wrote it on his
own and he self publishes and he
129
00:07:50,890 --> 00:07:53,170
told me he's got a couple of
boxes that are just sitting
130
00:07:53,170 --> 00:07:56,490
there waiting to be purchased.
Got about 150 copies.
131
00:07:56,970 --> 00:08:03,970
So let me give you his number.
It's seven O 78222577.
132
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:09,640
To get that, it's seven O
78222577.
133
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,720
Now I know this is going to blow
a lot of people away, but you
134
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,560
may just have to write a check
and send it to him and he'll
135
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:20,840
send you the book.
I know, right?
136
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,800
We all want to download it, have
it on her smartphone.
137
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:28,200
But it's a really nice book and
it's worth whatever he charges.
138
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:36,169
1520 bucks 7 O 78222577.
And his name again is David
139
00:08:36,169 --> 00:08:37,490
Bradley.
And the name of the book is
140
00:08:37,490 --> 00:08:40,610
called An Introduction to the
Urantia Revelation.
141
00:08:40,610 --> 00:08:43,850
And I'm just doing this.
I have no dog in this race.
142
00:08:43,850 --> 00:08:47,130
I don't get anything out of it.
But I could just tell that David
143
00:08:47,130 --> 00:08:51,050
put a lot of heart and soul.
We anybody who's tried to write
144
00:08:51,050 --> 00:08:54,450
a book about the Urantia book
knows that it's not an easy
145
00:08:54,450 --> 00:08:57,770
proposition.
So reach out to David, 7 O
146
00:08:57,770 --> 00:09:02,090
78222577, and tell him Jim told
you.
147
00:09:02,770 --> 00:09:05,690
All right.
So this week 1 notable we have
148
00:09:05,690 --> 00:09:10,850
surpassed over 100,000 downloads
since we started this podcast
149
00:09:10,850 --> 00:09:13,770
back in August of 20.
I think it was 2019.
150
00:09:15,410 --> 00:09:18,610
So I just want to say thank you
to all the folks who've honored
151
00:09:18,610 --> 00:09:21,410
me with your time.
You know what we're about here
152
00:09:21,410 --> 00:09:24,570
on the Ranch Radio podcast is
sharing the good news.
153
00:09:25,410 --> 00:09:28,810
So our topic this week, how do
we understand the concept of the
154
00:09:28,810 --> 00:09:32,550
Supreme being?
So what does the Supreme Being
155
00:09:32,550 --> 00:09:36,590
mean to us as individuals?
What does it mean?
156
00:09:37,630 --> 00:09:42,190
You know, my dad, he was not a
believer in a personal God, but
157
00:09:42,190 --> 00:09:46,510
he was a believer in the Supreme
being, kind of the concept of
158
00:09:46,510 --> 00:09:50,510
the universal mind.
And some people find it easier
159
00:09:50,510 --> 00:09:54,750
to believe in a supreme Being
really, rather than a personal,
160
00:09:54,750 --> 00:09:58,270
approachable God, someone that
they.
161
00:09:59,010 --> 00:10:02,650
Can actually enter entertain
prayer with and meditation with?
162
00:10:03,730 --> 00:10:06,450
For some people it's not that
easy because God is such a huge
163
00:10:06,450 --> 00:10:10,690
concept, but they do understand
the concept of a sort of an
164
00:10:10,690 --> 00:10:16,930
overriding force.
So the supreme being to a lot of
165
00:10:16,930 --> 00:10:20,770
people is like a force, a force
of good or something that just
166
00:10:20,770 --> 00:10:24,450
sort of is omnipresent.
And This is why I think maybe
167
00:10:24,450 --> 00:10:26,850
it's easier for people to
believe in angels, which is on
168
00:10:26,850 --> 00:10:29,300
a.
Much more connective level.
169
00:10:30,380 --> 00:10:34,860
And of course Jesus.
People really connect with Jesus
170
00:10:34,860 --> 00:10:37,260
because he had such a personal
appeal.
171
00:10:38,060 --> 00:10:41,820
You know, he was one of us, and
he brought us a great revelation
172
00:10:41,820 --> 00:10:44,980
about a personal deity, our
Father in Heaven.
173
00:10:45,620 --> 00:10:49,020
That was a new concept that
Jesus brought forth, the idea,
174
00:10:49,020 --> 00:10:53,940
this idea that you could have a
personal relationship with the
175
00:10:53,940 --> 00:10:57,180
creator of the universe, that
was unfathomable.
176
00:10:58,910 --> 00:11:02,510
But the Supreme, the Supreme
Being is something a little
177
00:11:02,510 --> 00:11:05,390
different and it takes the
concept of God to a whole
178
00:11:05,390 --> 00:11:09,310
different level.
And it and I think it deserves
179
00:11:09,310 --> 00:11:12,870
some examination because well,
for one thing it illustrates the
180
00:11:12,870 --> 00:11:17,190
challenges we face as human
beings right now in this
181
00:11:17,190 --> 00:11:21,270
struggle when it comes to good
and evil and choices we make in
182
00:11:21,270 --> 00:11:24,510
our life and the big struggle
today that.
183
00:11:24,950 --> 00:11:27,950
Is challenging us to make
important spiritual positions.
184
00:11:29,230 --> 00:11:32,910
So I want to read a little bit,
just a couple of paragraphs that
185
00:11:32,910 --> 00:11:36,550
talks about the Supreme Being.
But before we get to the meat of
186
00:11:36,550 --> 00:11:39,750
that, that subject.
This is an excerpt from Paper
187
00:11:39,870 --> 00:11:42,710
12, Section 7, and you may have
read it.
188
00:11:42,710 --> 00:11:44,190
It's called the Part and the
Whole.
189
00:11:44,830 --> 00:11:48,470
So it reads There is operative
throughout all time and space
190
00:11:49,110 --> 00:11:51,990
and with regard to all reality
of whatever nature.
191
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:56,680
Is an exorable and a personal
law which is equivalent to the
192
00:11:56,680 --> 00:12:02,280
function of a cosmic Providence.
Mercy characterizes God's
193
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,080
attitude of love for the
individual.
194
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:09,520
Impartiality motivates God's
attitude toward the total.
195
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:14,240
The will of God does not
necessarily prevail in the part
196
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:18,800
the heart of any one
personality, but His will does
197
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:22,860
actually rule the whole.
The universe of universes.
198
00:12:24,020 --> 00:12:29,300
God the Supreme, the actualizing
or evolving God of time and
199
00:12:29,300 --> 00:12:34,180
space.
Personal deity associatively
200
00:12:34,180 --> 00:12:39,660
realizing the time, space,
experiential achievement of
201
00:12:39,660 --> 00:12:46,620
creature creator identity.
The Supreme Being is personally
202
00:12:46,620 --> 00:12:50,340
experiencing the achievement of
deity unity.
203
00:12:51,610 --> 00:12:56,570
As the evolving and experiential
God of the evolutionary
204
00:12:56,570 --> 00:13:01,410
creatures of time and space,
that sounds like a very deep
205
00:13:01,410 --> 00:13:07,770
concept, but it basically means
that God is experiencing life
206
00:13:08,410 --> 00:13:14,690
through His created beings.
He's evolving by using our
207
00:13:14,690 --> 00:13:19,650
experiences to add to His
existential supremacy.
208
00:13:21,560 --> 00:13:26,760
From paper 7 or Section 7, in
the foreword it reads the
209
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:31,640
Father, Son, and Spirit are
existential without beginning,
210
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:36,000
without ending existential.
In actuality, though, all
211
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,360
potentials are supposedly
experiential.
212
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:41,800
See, there's a difference
between existential, which
213
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:45,320
essentially means you're always
perfect and always will be
214
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,080
perfect and always has been
perfect.
215
00:13:49,210 --> 00:13:51,850
But believe it or not, there's
some limitations in that.
216
00:13:52,330 --> 00:13:56,610
Because what do you lack?
You lack actual experience.
217
00:13:57,050 --> 00:14:01,970
So if you lack actual experience
and you're existentially
218
00:14:01,970 --> 00:14:06,170
perfect, well, are you?
Are you perfect in all manner?
219
00:14:06,530 --> 00:14:10,610
Are you exhaustively perfect
without the experience?
220
00:14:12,410 --> 00:14:16,050
The Supreme and the Ultimate are
wholly experiential, so that
221
00:14:16,050 --> 00:14:22,490
means God of the future.
There's still potential for
222
00:14:22,490 --> 00:14:25,930
growth.
The essence of deity is eternal,
223
00:14:25,930 --> 00:14:29,570
but only the three original
persons of Deity, which is God
224
00:14:29,570 --> 00:14:33,490
the Father, God the Son, and God
the Spirit are unqualifiedly
225
00:14:33,490 --> 00:14:37,330
eternal.
The next paragraph reads.
226
00:14:37,610 --> 00:14:41,570
Having achieved existential
deity expression of himself in
227
00:14:41,570 --> 00:14:45,050
the Son and the Spirit, the
Father is now achieving
228
00:14:45,290 --> 00:14:49,700
experiential expression.
On hitherto impersonal and
229
00:14:49,700 --> 00:14:52,820
unrevealed deity levels as God
the Supreme.
230
00:14:53,860 --> 00:14:58,940
But these experiential deities
are not now fully existent, They
231
00:14:58,940 --> 00:15:02,220
are in the process of
actualization.
232
00:15:02,300 --> 00:15:06,420
So that means that God the
Supreme is an evolving deity.
233
00:15:07,780 --> 00:15:11,500
So think of an embryo inside of
a body.
234
00:15:12,060 --> 00:15:14,220
Well that body is the present
universe.
235
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:19,840
But it's producing another level
of deity on the experiential
236
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:21,360
level.
And how does it get there?
237
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:26,760
How does it achieve this?
Through the creation of
238
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:30,160
individuals like ourselves, who
all play a role.
239
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:35,440
So here's where it reads the
supreme being now actualizing in
240
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:39,840
the evolutionary universes is
the deity, correlator and
241
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:42,200
synthesizer of time, space
divinity.
242
00:15:43,950 --> 00:15:47,830
When finally actualized, the
evolutionary deity will
243
00:15:47,830 --> 00:15:54,790
constitute the eternal fusion of
the finite and the infinite, the
244
00:15:54,790 --> 00:16:01,430
everlasting insoluble union of
experiential power and spirit
245
00:16:01,430 --> 00:16:05,030
personality.
So that is what this embryonic
246
00:16:05,030 --> 00:16:09,830
supreme being represents.
Experience and existential
247
00:16:09,830 --> 00:16:15,120
perfection now.
You're asking yourself at this
248
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,760
point, okay, well, what do I
have to do with this?
249
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:19,760
What is my relationship with the
Supreme?
250
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:24,440
So here's where I say God gives
us a fragment of His spirit.
251
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:29,640
Remember how in those, those
those old audio tapes of Bill
252
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:34,120
Sadler when he when he talks
about the patches of God and how
253
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,760
each fragment is identical and
potential divinity.
254
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:42,040
And this fragment is the thought
adjuster who has nothing but
255
00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:45,580
time to get to know you.
And share your life with you,
256
00:16:45,580 --> 00:16:49,220
the Father fragment that lives
with you throughout your entire
257
00:16:49,220 --> 00:16:54,060
life, if you're a moral being.
And that's what we have in
258
00:16:54,060 --> 00:16:57,100
ourselves, all human beings.
We have thought adjusters, We
259
00:16:57,100 --> 00:17:01,980
have spirit fragments, the
spirit, the lamp of of God, and
260
00:17:01,980 --> 00:17:04,460
it spiritizes our living
experience.
261
00:17:05,380 --> 00:17:09,260
We can choose to be a part of
the growth of the Supreme by
262
00:17:09,260 --> 00:17:13,020
participating and choosing God's
will in our lives today.
263
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:17,520
Which can be seen as moving
forward with with the movement
264
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:20,319
of God towards the evolution of
the Supreme.
265
00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:26,160
In a way, the Supreme Being is
in an embryonic form.
266
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,480
Think of a body again.
The central universe, the
267
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:32,200
heartbeat, the heartbeat of the
Trinity.
268
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:33,960
Isn't it amazing?
Think about your heart.
269
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:37,280
Think about it just beats every
day.
270
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:41,160
It continues to beat every day.
It's the you can't live without
271
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,000
it.
Just like.
272
00:17:43,470 --> 00:17:46,030
The Father and the Trinity can't
live without Havona.
273
00:17:46,030 --> 00:17:51,550
Havona is a perfect universe, 1
billion perfected spheres that
274
00:17:51,550 --> 00:17:55,030
all came into existence at the
time that the Trinity was
275
00:17:55,030 --> 00:18:00,110
complete and that reflects the
spiritual and physical power of
276
00:18:00,110 --> 00:18:01,870
the Trinity.
Havona.
277
00:18:02,750 --> 00:18:06,150
But they weren't done.
But Can you imagine how much
278
00:18:06,150 --> 00:18:08,110
power?
Think about the fact that we
279
00:18:08,110 --> 00:18:12,710
have in the current age 70
trillion sons.
280
00:18:13,180 --> 00:18:17,220
That are burning out in space
and that represents the physical
281
00:18:17,220 --> 00:18:20,420
power, power of the first source
and center.
282
00:18:21,060 --> 00:18:25,300
The same first source and center
that is a personal and loving
283
00:18:25,300 --> 00:18:31,140
deity.
Now the Supreme comprises all of
284
00:18:31,140 --> 00:18:35,860
God's current creation of spirit
ascenders, eventually born,
285
00:18:36,220 --> 00:18:39,860
actualizing, and coming into
existence as a result of the
286
00:18:39,860 --> 00:18:42,340
exhausted achievement of all of
us.
287
00:18:43,170 --> 00:18:48,010
All of us ascended beings who
choose to participate or we
288
00:18:48,010 --> 00:18:52,850
don't.
If we reject the plan of eternal
289
00:18:52,850 --> 00:18:56,730
survival and participation, then
the only thing we'll possess
290
00:18:56,730 --> 00:19:01,490
which is our personality, which
confuse with the spirit fragment
291
00:19:01,490 --> 00:19:04,370
of God.
It makes it possible for us to
292
00:19:04,370 --> 00:19:09,050
survive mortal death, survive
salvation from materialism.
293
00:19:09,780 --> 00:19:13,100
But we're free to choose that or
or we're free to reject it.
294
00:19:14,020 --> 00:19:17,620
Now.
If we don't choose that plan and
295
00:19:17,620 --> 00:19:22,300
we don't become team players, as
they say, well, God still takes
296
00:19:22,300 --> 00:19:25,580
the spirit fragment which has
our memories.
297
00:19:25,580 --> 00:19:28,820
The thought adjuster is eternal.
The thought adjuster goes back
298
00:19:28,820 --> 00:19:32,580
to God.
And if we choose to our attach
299
00:19:32,580 --> 00:19:36,460
ourselves to that spirit
fragment, then we're along for
300
00:19:36,460 --> 00:19:40,820
the ride.
God doesn't waste a single
301
00:19:40,820 --> 00:19:45,500
valuable spiritual experience.
It is part of the building block
302
00:19:46,420 --> 00:19:48,180
and the growth of the Supreme
Being.
303
00:19:49,380 --> 00:19:52,540
Imagine if we're living cells
and we are part of a growing
304
00:19:52,540 --> 00:19:56,900
collection of other living
cells, other ascendant beings,
305
00:19:57,540 --> 00:20:02,580
all part of this embryonic
formation of what eventually
306
00:20:03,220 --> 00:20:07,940
eventuate as a Supreme, and it
is at this stage, the next.
307
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:14,120
The universe age begins.
Imagine that once the age of
308
00:20:14,120 --> 00:20:17,920
Light and Life is lived out on
all the world of the current
309
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:24,200
creation and the supreme Being
emerges out of all of this, just
310
00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:26,200
as the appearance of Havana
occurred.
311
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:30,400
And the seven universes, the
seven super universes of which
312
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,600
we are a part, occurred at the
time of the completion of the
313
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:36,320
Trinity.
And by the way, it gets really
314
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:41,130
exciting because in the next.
Universe Age we, having achieved
315
00:20:41,130 --> 00:20:44,290
the embrace of the Father,
having achieved the limits of
316
00:20:44,290 --> 00:20:49,290
finality, are now mustered into
the core of personalities who
317
00:20:49,290 --> 00:20:52,490
become ministers and teachers in
the next Universe Age.
318
00:20:54,250 --> 00:20:57,730
Just as we have teachers and
administrators of this current
319
00:20:57,730 --> 00:21:02,370
age, the Melchezidics, Gabriel,
the Land and and X the Material
320
00:21:02,370 --> 00:21:07,170
Sons, and all of the spirit
personalities who serve in this
321
00:21:07,170 --> 00:21:08,940
age.
And bringing about the
322
00:21:08,940 --> 00:21:12,500
culmination of this age, leading
to the next.
323
00:21:14,060 --> 00:21:16,060
But what if you decide to reject
the plan?
324
00:21:16,860 --> 00:21:22,420
What if in this life, you become
a habitual denier of the offer
325
00:21:22,420 --> 00:21:26,700
of spirit salvation?
It means you're actually
326
00:21:26,700 --> 00:21:28,780
becoming less real, less
meaningful.
327
00:21:29,860 --> 00:21:33,500
You know Lucifer will eventually
experience personality
328
00:21:33,500 --> 00:21:36,270
annihilation.
Not from adjudication as we
329
00:21:36,270 --> 00:21:38,990
might see it in our earthly
courts where someone sentenced
330
00:21:38,990 --> 00:21:43,950
to death, but from the total and
complete rejection of the
331
00:21:43,950 --> 00:21:46,590
efforts of the Supreme to be
born.
332
00:21:47,110 --> 00:21:52,590
Lucifer is working against that
plan through his unbridled
333
00:21:52,590 --> 00:21:56,710
Liberty Proclamation.
It's kind of like what happens
334
00:21:56,710 --> 00:22:00,110
when a cell goes rogue of a
living cell in your body.
335
00:22:00,630 --> 00:22:02,510
What happens when living cells
die?
336
00:22:03,190 --> 00:22:05,550
They are flushed out.
They're eliminated.
337
00:22:05,830 --> 00:22:08,630
They're not part of the growth
of the Supreme.
338
00:22:08,630 --> 00:22:13,950
They've got their own ideas, you
know, and it's most simplistic
339
00:22:13,950 --> 00:22:16,670
terms.
God needs team players on this
340
00:22:16,670 --> 00:22:19,190
one.
Everything in the universe moves
341
00:22:19,390 --> 00:22:23,030
with the current of the
existential Father, seeking to
342
00:22:23,030 --> 00:22:30,270
emerge as an experiential deity,
which can only be achieved if we
343
00:22:30,270 --> 00:22:32,790
all are participants in this
grand plan.
344
00:22:34,690 --> 00:22:38,290
And if you don't, if you are a
personality that says no, I want
345
00:22:38,290 --> 00:22:41,370
to have it my way.
I want to do things on my own.
346
00:22:41,370 --> 00:22:43,770
Screw the plan.
I have my own plan.
347
00:22:45,650 --> 00:22:48,690
Except that you don't.
You see, you don't get your own
348
00:22:48,690 --> 00:22:50,090
plan.
You don't even get your own
349
00:22:50,090 --> 00:22:53,290
planet.
You actually possess only one
350
00:22:53,290 --> 00:22:57,210
thing that makes it possible for
you to escape from the dead end
351
00:22:57,770 --> 00:23:01,000
of materialism.
And it has to do with your
352
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:05,320
contribution to spiritual value,
the evolving of the Supreme.
353
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:10,320
Lucifer's not going to get his
own system to play with.
354
00:23:11,360 --> 00:23:15,120
Callagastie, who roams on our
world and is a follower of the
355
00:23:15,120 --> 00:23:18,960
Lucifer doctrine, doesn't get to
keep this planet all to himself.
356
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:24,080
He may be here to flesh out some
of his supporters, but he
357
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:28,160
continually rejects salvation by
denying the existence of the
358
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:33,740
reality of the Supreme.
He becomes less real, just as we
359
00:23:33,740 --> 00:23:39,260
each become less real when we
deny survival or reject the idea
360
00:23:39,620 --> 00:23:44,060
of spiritual ascension because
we're too arrogant or we have
361
00:23:44,060 --> 00:23:47,020
too much hubris, too much pride
of self.
362
00:23:49,620 --> 00:23:54,340
Long time your ranch book
student Chuck Thurston wrote a
363
00:23:54,340 --> 00:23:57,380
wonderful essay I will post on
your ranchoradio.net.
364
00:23:59,270 --> 00:24:01,350
Trying to get his permission.
I'm trying to actually try to
365
00:24:01,350 --> 00:24:04,590
get him on the show, and he
talks about the current age and
366
00:24:04,590 --> 00:24:08,190
why there's so much evil.
He explains that the most highs
367
00:24:08,550 --> 00:24:12,710
are in the process of vetting
those who are sympathetic to the
368
00:24:12,710 --> 00:24:14,550
Lucifer doctrine of self
liberty.
369
00:24:14,550 --> 00:24:16,710
I hadn't really thought about
that, but I think there's truth
370
00:24:16,710 --> 00:24:20,790
to that.
There's a doctrine that works
371
00:24:20,790 --> 00:24:24,670
against the Supreme, and it's in
play now.
372
00:24:25,670 --> 00:24:30,030
But strong families, intelligent
petitions to the Father, seeking
373
00:24:30,030 --> 00:24:34,070
for spiritual guidance, moral
wisdom, service of others,
374
00:24:36,470 --> 00:24:38,950
developing a spiritual
relationship with the first
375
00:24:38,950 --> 00:24:43,070
source and center those who work
toward the Supreme are joining
376
00:24:43,070 --> 00:24:47,070
forces with God, not deciding
that we have a better plan to do
377
00:24:47,070 --> 00:24:51,270
something else, the social
embrace of pride.
378
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:57,720
The self assertion of liberty
without license cannot last, but
379
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:01,640
it does provide the Most High as
a way to filter out those who
380
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:03,280
may not make it to the next
step.
381
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:08,080
You know, if you think about it,
death is a great filter of the
382
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:11,200
spiritually insolvent.
This is why faith is such an
383
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:14,400
important aspect of human
personality.
384
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,760
Without that faith, you need
that faith.
385
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:19,760
It's it's like a passport,
really.
386
00:25:21,410 --> 00:25:24,450
And it is because God wants only
the committed that we must
387
00:25:24,450 --> 00:25:27,970
endure the mistakes of our
brothers and sisters who reject
388
00:25:27,970 --> 00:25:33,010
this plan and try to be their
own gods by finding out new ways
389
00:25:33,010 --> 00:25:36,050
to grow fetuses.
Or they get involved in human
390
00:25:36,050 --> 00:25:41,170
trafficking to make a quick buck
or feed a fetish, or believing
391
00:25:41,170 --> 00:25:44,730
it is not moral to experiment on
society to make a quick buck.
392
00:25:45,290 --> 00:25:49,850
You know what I'm talking about.
And all of this exposes those
393
00:25:49,850 --> 00:25:53,410
who sit in darkness.
So I do want to pull a quote
394
00:25:53,410 --> 00:25:57,730
from Chuck Thurston's essay.
He says humans who rebel against
395
00:25:57,730 --> 00:26:01,770
God are inevitably causing the
death of their souls.
396
00:26:01,770 --> 00:26:05,890
But they are also discovering
the intoxicating hubris of false
397
00:26:05,890 --> 00:26:11,170
liberty with its releases from
all restrictions and obligations
398
00:26:11,170 --> 00:26:15,970
having to do with decency,
sincerity, and accountability.
399
00:26:16,770 --> 00:26:19,850
They can be dead spiritually and
still wield tremendous
400
00:26:19,850 --> 00:26:22,790
influence.
Over human affairs for the
401
00:26:22,790 --> 00:26:24,750
duration of their natural
lifetimes.
402
00:26:26,950 --> 00:26:30,550
Again, using the embryo metaphor
and attempting to conceptualize
403
00:26:30,550 --> 00:26:34,510
the emergence of the Supreme we
can choose to be a part of that,
404
00:26:34,510 --> 00:26:37,590
or we can choose not to be a
part of that.
405
00:26:38,630 --> 00:26:42,270
Our decisions here and now
affect whether we take the next
406
00:26:42,270 --> 00:26:47,950
step, or we reject the notion of
the next step altogether and try
407
00:26:47,950 --> 00:26:50,150
to reap all the pleasures in one
single.
408
00:26:50,580 --> 00:26:54,580
Finite, instantaneous lifetime,
which is what the world is
409
00:26:54,580 --> 00:26:58,140
currently selling you.
And that is why these are
410
00:26:58,140 --> 00:27:01,060
confusing times.
On bridal Liberty is
411
00:27:01,060 --> 00:27:03,740
intoxicating, and it slowly
kills the spirit.
412
00:27:05,980 --> 00:27:09,620
The Son of Man taught us the way
to avoid the pitfalls of this
413
00:27:09,620 --> 00:27:13,580
dangerous intoxication.
He taught us to serve one
414
00:27:13,580 --> 00:27:16,820
another.
And so I'm going to close with
415
00:27:16,820 --> 00:27:18,740
the same paragraph that I
started with.
416
00:27:20,290 --> 00:27:25,170
From Paper 12, Section 7, there
is operative throughout
417
00:27:25,450 --> 00:27:29,610
throughout all time and space,
and with regard to all reality
418
00:27:29,610 --> 00:27:33,890
of whatever nature and exorable
and impersonal law, which is
419
00:27:33,890 --> 00:27:36,970
equivalent to the function of
cosmic Providence.
420
00:27:38,050 --> 00:27:42,090
Mercy characterizes God's
attitude of love for the
421
00:27:42,090 --> 00:27:46,010
individual.
Impartiality motivates God's
422
00:27:46,050 --> 00:27:50,740
attitude toward the total.
The will of God does not
423
00:27:50,740 --> 00:27:53,940
necessarily prevail in the part
the heart of any one
424
00:27:53,940 --> 00:27:59,700
personality, but His will does
actually rule the whole the
425
00:27:59,700 --> 00:28:06,220
universe of universes.
So I hope that those words bring
426
00:28:06,220 --> 00:28:11,460
you comfort and inspire you in
in ways that I can only imagine.
427
00:28:11,460 --> 00:28:15,500
But this is a, I think, one of
my most favorite subjects,
428
00:28:15,780 --> 00:28:17,740
something that I've been putting
a lot of thought into.
429
00:28:18,630 --> 00:28:22,390
And I hope that you can
appreciate some of what I've
430
00:28:22,390 --> 00:28:26,350
conveyed on this episode that's
going to do it for this edition
431
00:28:26,350 --> 00:28:29,710
of the Rancho Radio Podcast.
Don't forget you can always
432
00:28:29,710 --> 00:28:31,750
e-mail.
Got a question about the show or
433
00:28:31,750 --> 00:28:35,390
a comment your Rancho book
radio@gmail.com.
00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:20,280
Welcome to another edition of
the Arancho Radio podcast and
2
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:23,280
thank you David Dinger for
providing such great
3
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:28,120
introductory music.
And we have a lot to cover on
4
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:30,120
this edition of the Uranchi
Radio Podcast.
5
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:34,040
I assure you we are going to
cover some very interesting
6
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:39,680
subject matter.
Also, we'll answer a few very
7
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:43,720
good emails and talk about an
essay that I read recently by
8
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:48,520
Chuck Thurston, who is involved
over there at I think it's
9
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:50,640
Uranchi University or the
Uranchia.
10
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:53,160
They do a lot of videos with
Derek.
11
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:59,250
Is it Samaras?
And he wrote a incredible essay
12
00:00:59,250 --> 00:01:03,210
that someone sent to me in
response to a podcast I had done
13
00:01:03,210 --> 00:01:05,690
recently on the Lucifer
rebellion.
14
00:01:06,290 --> 00:01:08,810
And I want to thank that person
for sending the e-mail.
15
00:01:08,810 --> 00:01:13,850
But the I'm I'm probably going
to try to post the Chuck
16
00:01:13,850 --> 00:01:17,410
Thurston essay because it delves
into a lot of things that are
17
00:01:18,010 --> 00:01:19,930
that are just.
And I and I want to actually try
18
00:01:19,930 --> 00:01:23,860
to get him on too.
To go into it because it covers
19
00:01:23,860 --> 00:01:27,780
a lot of what's going on today
in the world and the way the
20
00:01:27,780 --> 00:01:31,340
ideological struggle between
good and evil and and
21
00:01:31,380 --> 00:01:35,180
materialism and spirituality and
it's just it's just chock full
22
00:01:35,180 --> 00:01:38,260
of good information.
And I don't want to, I don't
23
00:01:38,260 --> 00:01:40,860
want to.
I want to give it its due.
24
00:01:41,380 --> 00:01:43,780
So hopefully we'll get Chuck on
in the next couple weeks.
25
00:01:43,780 --> 00:01:48,380
We hope so and we'll talk about
his essay, but I will refer to
26
00:01:48,380 --> 00:01:53,010
it a little bit in this.
Particular subject of this
27
00:01:53,010 --> 00:01:56,490
podcast, we're going to be
talking about the Supreme Being
28
00:01:56,490 --> 00:01:59,050
and its relationship to the
individual.
29
00:01:59,290 --> 00:02:02,610
So we'll get that.
Also we have some, like I said,
30
00:02:02,650 --> 00:02:05,730
a good e-mail question we can
kind of dive into.
31
00:02:06,930 --> 00:02:11,330
And I also want to share with
you that another e-mail that I
32
00:02:11,330 --> 00:02:14,890
got from someone and I want to
share with you some some works
33
00:02:14,890 --> 00:02:19,090
that were produced a few years
ago by a gentleman in Northern
34
00:02:19,090 --> 00:02:21,380
California.
That I that I think you'll
35
00:02:21,380 --> 00:02:24,700
really enjoy hearing about.
So we'll cover all of that talk
36
00:02:24,700 --> 00:02:28,540
about the Supreme Being and
we'll pay a few bills. 1st and
37
00:02:28,540 --> 00:02:30,780
welcome to the Arancha Radio
Podcast.
38
00:02:32,500 --> 00:02:33,940
Okay.
Welcome back to the Arancha
39
00:02:33,940 --> 00:02:37,500
Radio Podcast.
My name is Jim Watkins and I've
40
00:02:37,500 --> 00:02:42,140
been a lifelong reader.
I've now read the book more.
41
00:02:42,820 --> 00:02:48,060
I picked it up when I was 19 or
20 and I've been on this earth
42
00:02:48,060 --> 00:02:51,830
for. 60 years.
So I've actually been on the
43
00:02:51,830 --> 00:02:57,710
earth with the knowledge of the
Arantia book more than not being
44
00:02:57,710 --> 00:03:00,670
aware of the Arantia book which
was the 1st 20 years of my life.
45
00:03:02,430 --> 00:03:06,950
So for 40 years I've known about
the revelation in my 60 year
46
00:03:06,950 --> 00:03:08,670
life and I'm really happy about
that.
47
00:03:09,350 --> 00:03:11,790
Really I am.
I got a great e-mail from
48
00:03:11,790 --> 00:03:16,390
someone who listens to the
podcast and the question was why
49
00:03:16,390 --> 00:03:19,310
is it so hard to get people?
Interested in the Rancho Book
50
00:03:20,590 --> 00:03:23,030
Now drawing from my own
experiences, which I
51
00:03:23,270 --> 00:03:26,750
coincidentally included in the
opening of my new, as of yet
52
00:03:26,750 --> 00:03:28,950
unfinished book, A New
Perspective.
53
00:03:28,950 --> 00:03:31,670
How the Rancho book will
facilitate a spiritual
54
00:03:31,670 --> 00:03:34,750
renaissance.
It goes into my early expense
55
00:03:35,150 --> 00:03:38,830
early, early experiences when I
tried to share the book with
56
00:03:38,830 --> 00:03:41,710
certain family and friends when
I first started reading the
57
00:03:41,710 --> 00:03:46,870
Rancho Book, and I think I got a
lot of people interested over
58
00:03:46,870 --> 00:03:50,730
the years.
But many people, you know, I
59
00:03:50,730 --> 00:03:52,410
would loan the book out to
people.
60
00:03:53,010 --> 00:03:55,650
And a lot of people that I
thought would be receptive to it
61
00:03:56,330 --> 00:03:59,330
just gave the book back.
And they were always nice about
62
00:03:59,330 --> 00:04:01,410
it.
But then they always kind of
63
00:04:01,650 --> 00:04:04,050
acted differently.
Many of them acted differently
64
00:04:04,530 --> 00:04:06,130
and never really wanted to talk
about it.
65
00:04:06,130 --> 00:04:09,490
I had one friend who told me
that they thought the book was
66
00:04:09,610 --> 00:04:14,570
absolutely fascinating, but he
felt like and he actually told
67
00:04:14,570 --> 00:04:16,850
me, he says, how do I know this
book is true?
68
00:04:17,820 --> 00:04:21,140
How can I invest my time in
something if I don't know it's
69
00:04:21,140 --> 00:04:25,060
true?
So it does take a commitment.
70
00:04:25,220 --> 00:04:27,140
Even the revelators were
astonished.
71
00:04:27,580 --> 00:04:30,660
I am told in the early days when
the reception of the original
72
00:04:30,660 --> 00:04:35,980
forum they they would say things
like do you people realize what
73
00:04:35,980 --> 00:04:40,300
you have in your possession?
And you will find that mentioned
74
00:04:40,300 --> 00:04:44,220
in the early testimony from Bill
Sadler and some of the readers
75
00:04:44,220 --> 00:04:47,660
back in the 40s.
You know, I I knew a woman.
76
00:04:47,660 --> 00:04:53,100
I was introduced to a woman back
in the 90s, I think mid 90s.
77
00:04:53,380 --> 00:04:56,820
My mom lived in Phoenix and I
went to visit her and of course
78
00:04:56,820 --> 00:04:59,180
she knew how much I enjoyed the
Arantia book.
79
00:04:59,860 --> 00:05:01,660
And my mom actually was a big
supporter.
80
00:05:01,660 --> 00:05:05,900
She read the Arantia book and
and really thought it was the
81
00:05:05,900 --> 00:05:09,780
most important book she'd ever
read anyway.
82
00:05:09,780 --> 00:05:11,780
She knew this woman.
They had met.
83
00:05:12,530 --> 00:05:14,450
And she was always bragging
about her son.
84
00:05:14,450 --> 00:05:16,290
So it came up about the Arantia
book.
85
00:05:16,730 --> 00:05:19,570
And so I was introduced to my
mom's friend who I am sorry, I
86
00:05:19,570 --> 00:05:24,090
don't have her name, but she was
in her 80s or 90s and she said
87
00:05:24,570 --> 00:05:26,770
and she was part of the early
forum.
88
00:05:28,130 --> 00:05:30,650
Her boyfriend was in the forum.
So she would go to these
89
00:05:30,650 --> 00:05:34,130
meetings at Diversey there in
Chicago.
90
00:05:34,690 --> 00:05:37,930
And initially she would just go
to be with her boyfriend.
91
00:05:38,490 --> 00:05:41,170
And she remarked to me, she goes
he was really into this book,
92
00:05:41,170 --> 00:05:43,110
but.
Really, I was more interested in
93
00:05:43,110 --> 00:05:46,070
him, and I didn't get into the
book until much later.
94
00:05:47,950 --> 00:05:51,070
So you've got that story.
And then on the other hand, you
95
00:05:51,070 --> 00:05:53,870
know, I passed the the book, the
Rancho book on to several
96
00:05:53,870 --> 00:05:57,630
friends who absolutely love the
book, and it changed their life
97
00:05:57,630 --> 00:06:01,790
almost right away.
So I think my experience is that
98
00:06:01,790 --> 00:06:04,430
it depends on two important
things.
99
00:06:04,430 --> 00:06:09,510
One is how hungry a person might
be for the truth and where they
100
00:06:09,510 --> 00:06:12,110
might be in their life.
At the time that you hand them
101
00:06:12,110 --> 00:06:14,750
the book.
Now, if you run into a person
102
00:06:15,150 --> 00:06:17,950
who is at a point of their life
where they're sincerely looking
103
00:06:17,950 --> 00:06:22,030
for real answers, that's when I
think the Urancho book has the
104
00:06:22,030 --> 00:06:26,230
most appeal.
So if you give it to someone and
105
00:06:26,230 --> 00:06:29,910
they're not necessarily looking
for it, you might just be
106
00:06:29,910 --> 00:06:34,830
wasting your time.
So that's my my answer to that
107
00:06:34,830 --> 00:06:38,110
e-mail, but I will tell you that
that e-mail led to me going
108
00:06:38,110 --> 00:06:41,540
through some of my boxes.
And I found a book that I bought
109
00:06:41,540 --> 00:06:44,540
a few years ago.
I don't remember where I saw it,
110
00:06:44,540 --> 00:06:50,700
but it was by David Bradley, and
it's White Egret Publications,
111
00:06:50,700 --> 00:06:52,340
and he lives in Northern
California.
112
00:06:53,060 --> 00:06:55,820
And the book is called An
Introduction to the Urancho
113
00:06:55,820 --> 00:06:58,020
Revelation.
And I bought a copy.
114
00:06:58,020 --> 00:07:01,340
It was like 15 bucks.
I think you could still get them
115
00:07:01,340 --> 00:07:04,380
online.
Although I did call David and I
116
00:07:04,380 --> 00:07:05,900
said, are you still publishing
the book?
117
00:07:05,900 --> 00:07:07,940
And he said, well, I took it off
of Amazon.
118
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,400
Because they kept charging me
too much.
119
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:15,560
So I'm going to give you a phone
number and if you are a big time
120
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,920
your Rancho book reader or a
long time your Rancho book
121
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:23,040
reader and you maybe want to
have a reference book, something
122
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:27,560
that you could give to somebody
that sort of gives a simplistic
123
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:29,840
overview of what the Rancho book
is all about.
124
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:34,480
It's got some interesting cool
fold out maps that sort of give
125
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:38,010
you a perspective of.
Of the universe, you know based
126
00:07:38,010 --> 00:07:41,010
on the Urancho book narrative.
So again the book is called An
127
00:07:41,010 --> 00:07:46,090
Introduction to the Urancho
Revelation and the the author is
128
00:07:46,090 --> 00:07:50,890
David Bradley wrote it on his
own and he self publishes and he
129
00:07:50,890 --> 00:07:53,170
told me he's got a couple of
boxes that are just sitting
130
00:07:53,170 --> 00:07:56,490
there waiting to be purchased.
Got about 150 copies.
131
00:07:56,970 --> 00:08:03,970
So let me give you his number.
It's seven O 78222577.
132
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:09,640
To get that, it's seven O
78222577.
133
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,720
Now I know this is going to blow
a lot of people away, but you
134
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,560
may just have to write a check
and send it to him and he'll
135
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:20,840
send you the book.
I know, right?
136
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,800
We all want to download it, have
it on her smartphone.
137
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:28,200
But it's a really nice book and
it's worth whatever he charges.
138
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:36,169
1520 bucks 7 O 78222577.
And his name again is David
139
00:08:36,169 --> 00:08:37,490
Bradley.
And the name of the book is
140
00:08:37,490 --> 00:08:40,610
called An Introduction to the
Urantia Revelation.
141
00:08:40,610 --> 00:08:43,850
And I'm just doing this.
I have no dog in this race.
142
00:08:43,850 --> 00:08:47,130
I don't get anything out of it.
But I could just tell that David
143
00:08:47,130 --> 00:08:51,050
put a lot of heart and soul.
We anybody who's tried to write
144
00:08:51,050 --> 00:08:54,450
a book about the Urantia book
knows that it's not an easy
145
00:08:54,450 --> 00:08:57,770
proposition.
So reach out to David, 7 O
146
00:08:57,770 --> 00:09:02,090
78222577, and tell him Jim told
you.
147
00:09:02,770 --> 00:09:05,690
All right.
So this week 1 notable we have
148
00:09:05,690 --> 00:09:10,850
surpassed over 100,000 downloads
since we started this podcast
149
00:09:10,850 --> 00:09:13,770
back in August of 20.
I think it was 2019.
150
00:09:15,410 --> 00:09:18,610
So I just want to say thank you
to all the folks who've honored
151
00:09:18,610 --> 00:09:21,410
me with your time.
You know what we're about here
152
00:09:21,410 --> 00:09:24,570
on the Ranch Radio podcast is
sharing the good news.
153
00:09:25,410 --> 00:09:28,810
So our topic this week, how do
we understand the concept of the
154
00:09:28,810 --> 00:09:32,550
Supreme being?
So what does the Supreme Being
155
00:09:32,550 --> 00:09:36,590
mean to us as individuals?
What does it mean?
156
00:09:37,630 --> 00:09:42,190
You know, my dad, he was not a
believer in a personal God, but
157
00:09:42,190 --> 00:09:46,510
he was a believer in the Supreme
being, kind of the concept of
158
00:09:46,510 --> 00:09:50,510
the universal mind.
And some people find it easier
159
00:09:50,510 --> 00:09:54,750
to believe in a supreme Being
really, rather than a personal,
160
00:09:54,750 --> 00:09:58,270
approachable God, someone that
they.
161
00:09:59,010 --> 00:10:02,650
Can actually enter entertain
prayer with and meditation with?
162
00:10:03,730 --> 00:10:06,450
For some people it's not that
easy because God is such a huge
163
00:10:06,450 --> 00:10:10,690
concept, but they do understand
the concept of a sort of an
164
00:10:10,690 --> 00:10:16,930
overriding force.
So the supreme being to a lot of
165
00:10:16,930 --> 00:10:20,770
people is like a force, a force
of good or something that just
166
00:10:20,770 --> 00:10:24,450
sort of is omnipresent.
And This is why I think maybe
167
00:10:24,450 --> 00:10:26,850
it's easier for people to
believe in angels, which is on
168
00:10:26,850 --> 00:10:29,300
a.
Much more connective level.
169
00:10:30,380 --> 00:10:34,860
And of course Jesus.
People really connect with Jesus
170
00:10:34,860 --> 00:10:37,260
because he had such a personal
appeal.
171
00:10:38,060 --> 00:10:41,820
You know, he was one of us, and
he brought us a great revelation
172
00:10:41,820 --> 00:10:44,980
about a personal deity, our
Father in Heaven.
173
00:10:45,620 --> 00:10:49,020
That was a new concept that
Jesus brought forth, the idea,
174
00:10:49,020 --> 00:10:53,940
this idea that you could have a
personal relationship with the
175
00:10:53,940 --> 00:10:57,180
creator of the universe, that
was unfathomable.
176
00:10:58,910 --> 00:11:02,510
But the Supreme, the Supreme
Being is something a little
177
00:11:02,510 --> 00:11:05,390
different and it takes the
concept of God to a whole
178
00:11:05,390 --> 00:11:09,310
different level.
And it and I think it deserves
179
00:11:09,310 --> 00:11:12,870
some examination because well,
for one thing it illustrates the
180
00:11:12,870 --> 00:11:17,190
challenges we face as human
beings right now in this
181
00:11:17,190 --> 00:11:21,270
struggle when it comes to good
and evil and choices we make in
182
00:11:21,270 --> 00:11:24,510
our life and the big struggle
today that.
183
00:11:24,950 --> 00:11:27,950
Is challenging us to make
important spiritual positions.
184
00:11:29,230 --> 00:11:32,910
So I want to read a little bit,
just a couple of paragraphs that
185
00:11:32,910 --> 00:11:36,550
talks about the Supreme Being.
But before we get to the meat of
186
00:11:36,550 --> 00:11:39,750
that, that subject.
This is an excerpt from Paper
187
00:11:39,870 --> 00:11:42,710
12, Section 7, and you may have
read it.
188
00:11:42,710 --> 00:11:44,190
It's called the Part and the
Whole.
189
00:11:44,830 --> 00:11:48,470
So it reads There is operative
throughout all time and space
190
00:11:49,110 --> 00:11:51,990
and with regard to all reality
of whatever nature.
191
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:56,680
Is an exorable and a personal
law which is equivalent to the
192
00:11:56,680 --> 00:12:02,280
function of a cosmic Providence.
Mercy characterizes God's
193
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,080
attitude of love for the
individual.
194
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:09,520
Impartiality motivates God's
attitude toward the total.
195
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:14,240
The will of God does not
necessarily prevail in the part
196
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:18,800
the heart of any one
personality, but His will does
197
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:22,860
actually rule the whole.
The universe of universes.
198
00:12:24,020 --> 00:12:29,300
God the Supreme, the actualizing
or evolving God of time and
199
00:12:29,300 --> 00:12:34,180
space.
Personal deity associatively
200
00:12:34,180 --> 00:12:39,660
realizing the time, space,
experiential achievement of
201
00:12:39,660 --> 00:12:46,620
creature creator identity.
The Supreme Being is personally
202
00:12:46,620 --> 00:12:50,340
experiencing the achievement of
deity unity.
203
00:12:51,610 --> 00:12:56,570
As the evolving and experiential
God of the evolutionary
204
00:12:56,570 --> 00:13:01,410
creatures of time and space,
that sounds like a very deep
205
00:13:01,410 --> 00:13:07,770
concept, but it basically means
that God is experiencing life
206
00:13:08,410 --> 00:13:14,690
through His created beings.
He's evolving by using our
207
00:13:14,690 --> 00:13:19,650
experiences to add to His
existential supremacy.
208
00:13:21,560 --> 00:13:26,760
From paper 7 or Section 7, in
the foreword it reads the
209
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:31,640
Father, Son, and Spirit are
existential without beginning,
210
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:36,000
without ending existential.
In actuality, though, all
211
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,360
potentials are supposedly
experiential.
212
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:41,800
See, there's a difference
between existential, which
213
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:45,320
essentially means you're always
perfect and always will be
214
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,080
perfect and always has been
perfect.
215
00:13:49,210 --> 00:13:51,850
But believe it or not, there's
some limitations in that.
216
00:13:52,330 --> 00:13:56,610
Because what do you lack?
You lack actual experience.
217
00:13:57,050 --> 00:14:01,970
So if you lack actual experience
and you're existentially
218
00:14:01,970 --> 00:14:06,170
perfect, well, are you?
Are you perfect in all manner?
219
00:14:06,530 --> 00:14:10,610
Are you exhaustively perfect
without the experience?
220
00:14:12,410 --> 00:14:16,050
The Supreme and the Ultimate are
wholly experiential, so that
221
00:14:16,050 --> 00:14:22,490
means God of the future.
There's still potential for
222
00:14:22,490 --> 00:14:25,930
growth.
The essence of deity is eternal,
223
00:14:25,930 --> 00:14:29,570
but only the three original
persons of Deity, which is God
224
00:14:29,570 --> 00:14:33,490
the Father, God the Son, and God
the Spirit are unqualifiedly
225
00:14:33,490 --> 00:14:37,330
eternal.
The next paragraph reads.
226
00:14:37,610 --> 00:14:41,570
Having achieved existential
deity expression of himself in
227
00:14:41,570 --> 00:14:45,050
the Son and the Spirit, the
Father is now achieving
228
00:14:45,290 --> 00:14:49,700
experiential expression.
On hitherto impersonal and
229
00:14:49,700 --> 00:14:52,820
unrevealed deity levels as God
the Supreme.
230
00:14:53,860 --> 00:14:58,940
But these experiential deities
are not now fully existent, They
231
00:14:58,940 --> 00:15:02,220
are in the process of
actualization.
232
00:15:02,300 --> 00:15:06,420
So that means that God the
Supreme is an evolving deity.
233
00:15:07,780 --> 00:15:11,500
So think of an embryo inside of
a body.
234
00:15:12,060 --> 00:15:14,220
Well that body is the present
universe.
235
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:19,840
But it's producing another level
of deity on the experiential
236
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:21,360
level.
And how does it get there?
237
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:26,760
How does it achieve this?
Through the creation of
238
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:30,160
individuals like ourselves, who
all play a role.
239
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:35,440
So here's where it reads the
supreme being now actualizing in
240
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:39,840
the evolutionary universes is
the deity, correlator and
241
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:42,200
synthesizer of time, space
divinity.
242
00:15:43,950 --> 00:15:47,830
When finally actualized, the
evolutionary deity will
243
00:15:47,830 --> 00:15:54,790
constitute the eternal fusion of
the finite and the infinite, the
244
00:15:54,790 --> 00:16:01,430
everlasting insoluble union of
experiential power and spirit
245
00:16:01,430 --> 00:16:05,030
personality.
So that is what this embryonic
246
00:16:05,030 --> 00:16:09,830
supreme being represents.
Experience and existential
247
00:16:09,830 --> 00:16:15,120
perfection now.
You're asking yourself at this
248
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,760
point, okay, well, what do I
have to do with this?
249
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:19,760
What is my relationship with the
Supreme?
250
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:24,440
So here's where I say God gives
us a fragment of His spirit.
251
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:29,640
Remember how in those, those
those old audio tapes of Bill
252
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:34,120
Sadler when he when he talks
about the patches of God and how
253
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,760
each fragment is identical and
potential divinity.
254
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:42,040
And this fragment is the thought
adjuster who has nothing but
255
00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:45,580
time to get to know you.
And share your life with you,
256
00:16:45,580 --> 00:16:49,220
the Father fragment that lives
with you throughout your entire
257
00:16:49,220 --> 00:16:54,060
life, if you're a moral being.
And that's what we have in
258
00:16:54,060 --> 00:16:57,100
ourselves, all human beings.
We have thought adjusters, We
259
00:16:57,100 --> 00:17:01,980
have spirit fragments, the
spirit, the lamp of of God, and
260
00:17:01,980 --> 00:17:04,460
it spiritizes our living
experience.
261
00:17:05,380 --> 00:17:09,260
We can choose to be a part of
the growth of the Supreme by
262
00:17:09,260 --> 00:17:13,020
participating and choosing God's
will in our lives today.
263
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:17,520
Which can be seen as moving
forward with with the movement
264
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:20,319
of God towards the evolution of
the Supreme.
265
00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:26,160
In a way, the Supreme Being is
in an embryonic form.
266
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,480
Think of a body again.
The central universe, the
267
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:32,200
heartbeat, the heartbeat of the
Trinity.
268
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:33,960
Isn't it amazing?
Think about your heart.
269
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:37,280
Think about it just beats every
day.
270
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:41,160
It continues to beat every day.
It's the you can't live without
271
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,000
it.
Just like.
272
00:17:43,470 --> 00:17:46,030
The Father and the Trinity can't
live without Havona.
273
00:17:46,030 --> 00:17:51,550
Havona is a perfect universe, 1
billion perfected spheres that
274
00:17:51,550 --> 00:17:55,030
all came into existence at the
time that the Trinity was
275
00:17:55,030 --> 00:18:00,110
complete and that reflects the
spiritual and physical power of
276
00:18:00,110 --> 00:18:01,870
the Trinity.
Havona.
277
00:18:02,750 --> 00:18:06,150
But they weren't done.
But Can you imagine how much
278
00:18:06,150 --> 00:18:08,110
power?
Think about the fact that we
279
00:18:08,110 --> 00:18:12,710
have in the current age 70
trillion sons.
280
00:18:13,180 --> 00:18:17,220
That are burning out in space
and that represents the physical
281
00:18:17,220 --> 00:18:20,420
power, power of the first source
and center.
282
00:18:21,060 --> 00:18:25,300
The same first source and center
that is a personal and loving
283
00:18:25,300 --> 00:18:31,140
deity.
Now the Supreme comprises all of
284
00:18:31,140 --> 00:18:35,860
God's current creation of spirit
ascenders, eventually born,
285
00:18:36,220 --> 00:18:39,860
actualizing, and coming into
existence as a result of the
286
00:18:39,860 --> 00:18:42,340
exhausted achievement of all of
us.
287
00:18:43,170 --> 00:18:48,010
All of us ascended beings who
choose to participate or we
288
00:18:48,010 --> 00:18:52,850
don't.
If we reject the plan of eternal
289
00:18:52,850 --> 00:18:56,730
survival and participation, then
the only thing we'll possess
290
00:18:56,730 --> 00:19:01,490
which is our personality, which
confuse with the spirit fragment
291
00:19:01,490 --> 00:19:04,370
of God.
It makes it possible for us to
292
00:19:04,370 --> 00:19:09,050
survive mortal death, survive
salvation from materialism.
293
00:19:09,780 --> 00:19:13,100
But we're free to choose that or
or we're free to reject it.
294
00:19:14,020 --> 00:19:17,620
Now.
If we don't choose that plan and
295
00:19:17,620 --> 00:19:22,300
we don't become team players, as
they say, well, God still takes
296
00:19:22,300 --> 00:19:25,580
the spirit fragment which has
our memories.
297
00:19:25,580 --> 00:19:28,820
The thought adjuster is eternal.
The thought adjuster goes back
298
00:19:28,820 --> 00:19:32,580
to God.
And if we choose to our attach
299
00:19:32,580 --> 00:19:36,460
ourselves to that spirit
fragment, then we're along for
300
00:19:36,460 --> 00:19:40,820
the ride.
God doesn't waste a single
301
00:19:40,820 --> 00:19:45,500
valuable spiritual experience.
It is part of the building block
302
00:19:46,420 --> 00:19:48,180
and the growth of the Supreme
Being.
303
00:19:49,380 --> 00:19:52,540
Imagine if we're living cells
and we are part of a growing
304
00:19:52,540 --> 00:19:56,900
collection of other living
cells, other ascendant beings,
305
00:19:57,540 --> 00:20:02,580
all part of this embryonic
formation of what eventually
306
00:20:03,220 --> 00:20:07,940
eventuate as a Supreme, and it
is at this stage, the next.
307
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:14,120
The universe age begins.
Imagine that once the age of
308
00:20:14,120 --> 00:20:17,920
Light and Life is lived out on
all the world of the current
309
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:24,200
creation and the supreme Being
emerges out of all of this, just
310
00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:26,200
as the appearance of Havana
occurred.
311
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:30,400
And the seven universes, the
seven super universes of which
312
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,600
we are a part, occurred at the
time of the completion of the
313
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:36,320
Trinity.
And by the way, it gets really
314
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:41,130
exciting because in the next.
Universe Age we, having achieved
315
00:20:41,130 --> 00:20:44,290
the embrace of the Father,
having achieved the limits of
316
00:20:44,290 --> 00:20:49,290
finality, are now mustered into
the core of personalities who
317
00:20:49,290 --> 00:20:52,490
become ministers and teachers in
the next Universe Age.
318
00:20:54,250 --> 00:20:57,730
Just as we have teachers and
administrators of this current
319
00:20:57,730 --> 00:21:02,370
age, the Melchezidics, Gabriel,
the Land and and X the Material
320
00:21:02,370 --> 00:21:07,170
Sons, and all of the spirit
personalities who serve in this
321
00:21:07,170 --> 00:21:08,940
age.
And bringing about the
322
00:21:08,940 --> 00:21:12,500
culmination of this age, leading
to the next.
323
00:21:14,060 --> 00:21:16,060
But what if you decide to reject
the plan?
324
00:21:16,860 --> 00:21:22,420
What if in this life, you become
a habitual denier of the offer
325
00:21:22,420 --> 00:21:26,700
of spirit salvation?
It means you're actually
326
00:21:26,700 --> 00:21:28,780
becoming less real, less
meaningful.
327
00:21:29,860 --> 00:21:33,500
You know Lucifer will eventually
experience personality
328
00:21:33,500 --> 00:21:36,270
annihilation.
Not from adjudication as we
329
00:21:36,270 --> 00:21:38,990
might see it in our earthly
courts where someone sentenced
330
00:21:38,990 --> 00:21:43,950
to death, but from the total and
complete rejection of the
331
00:21:43,950 --> 00:21:46,590
efforts of the Supreme to be
born.
332
00:21:47,110 --> 00:21:52,590
Lucifer is working against that
plan through his unbridled
333
00:21:52,590 --> 00:21:56,710
Liberty Proclamation.
It's kind of like what happens
334
00:21:56,710 --> 00:22:00,110
when a cell goes rogue of a
living cell in your body.
335
00:22:00,630 --> 00:22:02,510
What happens when living cells
die?
336
00:22:03,190 --> 00:22:05,550
They are flushed out.
They're eliminated.
337
00:22:05,830 --> 00:22:08,630
They're not part of the growth
of the Supreme.
338
00:22:08,630 --> 00:22:13,950
They've got their own ideas, you
know, and it's most simplistic
339
00:22:13,950 --> 00:22:16,670
terms.
God needs team players on this
340
00:22:16,670 --> 00:22:19,190
one.
Everything in the universe moves
341
00:22:19,390 --> 00:22:23,030
with the current of the
existential Father, seeking to
342
00:22:23,030 --> 00:22:30,270
emerge as an experiential deity,
which can only be achieved if we
343
00:22:30,270 --> 00:22:32,790
all are participants in this
grand plan.
344
00:22:34,690 --> 00:22:38,290
And if you don't, if you are a
personality that says no, I want
345
00:22:38,290 --> 00:22:41,370
to have it my way.
I want to do things on my own.
346
00:22:41,370 --> 00:22:43,770
Screw the plan.
I have my own plan.
347
00:22:45,650 --> 00:22:48,690
Except that you don't.
You see, you don't get your own
348
00:22:48,690 --> 00:22:50,090
plan.
You don't even get your own
349
00:22:50,090 --> 00:22:53,290
planet.
You actually possess only one
350
00:22:53,290 --> 00:22:57,210
thing that makes it possible for
you to escape from the dead end
351
00:22:57,770 --> 00:23:01,000
of materialism.
And it has to do with your
352
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:05,320
contribution to spiritual value,
the evolving of the Supreme.
353
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:10,320
Lucifer's not going to get his
own system to play with.
354
00:23:11,360 --> 00:23:15,120
Callagastie, who roams on our
world and is a follower of the
355
00:23:15,120 --> 00:23:18,960
Lucifer doctrine, doesn't get to
keep this planet all to himself.
356
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:24,080
He may be here to flesh out some
of his supporters, but he
357
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:28,160
continually rejects salvation by
denying the existence of the
358
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:33,740
reality of the Supreme.
He becomes less real, just as we
359
00:23:33,740 --> 00:23:39,260
each become less real when we
deny survival or reject the idea
360
00:23:39,620 --> 00:23:44,060
of spiritual ascension because
we're too arrogant or we have
361
00:23:44,060 --> 00:23:47,020
too much hubris, too much pride
of self.
362
00:23:49,620 --> 00:23:54,340
Long time your ranch book
student Chuck Thurston wrote a
363
00:23:54,340 --> 00:23:57,380
wonderful essay I will post on
your ranchoradio.net.
364
00:23:59,270 --> 00:24:01,350
Trying to get his permission.
I'm trying to actually try to
365
00:24:01,350 --> 00:24:04,590
get him on the show, and he
talks about the current age and
366
00:24:04,590 --> 00:24:08,190
why there's so much evil.
He explains that the most highs
367
00:24:08,550 --> 00:24:12,710
are in the process of vetting
those who are sympathetic to the
368
00:24:12,710 --> 00:24:14,550
Lucifer doctrine of self
liberty.
369
00:24:14,550 --> 00:24:16,710
I hadn't really thought about
that, but I think there's truth
370
00:24:16,710 --> 00:24:20,790
to that.
There's a doctrine that works
371
00:24:20,790 --> 00:24:24,670
against the Supreme, and it's in
play now.
372
00:24:25,670 --> 00:24:30,030
But strong families, intelligent
petitions to the Father, seeking
373
00:24:30,030 --> 00:24:34,070
for spiritual guidance, moral
wisdom, service of others,
374
00:24:36,470 --> 00:24:38,950
developing a spiritual
relationship with the first
375
00:24:38,950 --> 00:24:43,070
source and center those who work
toward the Supreme are joining
376
00:24:43,070 --> 00:24:47,070
forces with God, not deciding
that we have a better plan to do
377
00:24:47,070 --> 00:24:51,270
something else, the social
embrace of pride.
378
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:57,720
The self assertion of liberty
without license cannot last, but
379
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:01,640
it does provide the Most High as
a way to filter out those who
380
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:03,280
may not make it to the next
step.
381
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:08,080
You know, if you think about it,
death is a great filter of the
382
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:11,200
spiritually insolvent.
This is why faith is such an
383
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:14,400
important aspect of human
personality.
384
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,760
Without that faith, you need
that faith.
385
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:19,760
It's it's like a passport,
really.
386
00:25:21,410 --> 00:25:24,450
And it is because God wants only
the committed that we must
387
00:25:24,450 --> 00:25:27,970
endure the mistakes of our
brothers and sisters who reject
388
00:25:27,970 --> 00:25:33,010
this plan and try to be their
own gods by finding out new ways
389
00:25:33,010 --> 00:25:36,050
to grow fetuses.
Or they get involved in human
390
00:25:36,050 --> 00:25:41,170
trafficking to make a quick buck
or feed a fetish, or believing
391
00:25:41,170 --> 00:25:44,730
it is not moral to experiment on
society to make a quick buck.
392
00:25:45,290 --> 00:25:49,850
You know what I'm talking about.
And all of this exposes those
393
00:25:49,850 --> 00:25:53,410
who sit in darkness.
So I do want to pull a quote
394
00:25:53,410 --> 00:25:57,730
from Chuck Thurston's essay.
He says humans who rebel against
395
00:25:57,730 --> 00:26:01,770
God are inevitably causing the
death of their souls.
396
00:26:01,770 --> 00:26:05,890
But they are also discovering
the intoxicating hubris of false
397
00:26:05,890 --> 00:26:11,170
liberty with its releases from
all restrictions and obligations
398
00:26:11,170 --> 00:26:15,970
having to do with decency,
sincerity, and accountability.
399
00:26:16,770 --> 00:26:19,850
They can be dead spiritually and
still wield tremendous
400
00:26:19,850 --> 00:26:22,790
influence.
Over human affairs for the
401
00:26:22,790 --> 00:26:24,750
duration of their natural
lifetimes.
402
00:26:26,950 --> 00:26:30,550
Again, using the embryo metaphor
and attempting to conceptualize
403
00:26:30,550 --> 00:26:34,510
the emergence of the Supreme we
can choose to be a part of that,
404
00:26:34,510 --> 00:26:37,590
or we can choose not to be a
part of that.
405
00:26:38,630 --> 00:26:42,270
Our decisions here and now
affect whether we take the next
406
00:26:42,270 --> 00:26:47,950
step, or we reject the notion of
the next step altogether and try
407
00:26:47,950 --> 00:26:50,150
to reap all the pleasures in one
single.
408
00:26:50,580 --> 00:26:54,580
Finite, instantaneous lifetime,
which is what the world is
409
00:26:54,580 --> 00:26:58,140
currently selling you.
And that is why these are
410
00:26:58,140 --> 00:27:01,060
confusing times.
On bridal Liberty is
411
00:27:01,060 --> 00:27:03,740
intoxicating, and it slowly
kills the spirit.
412
00:27:05,980 --> 00:27:09,620
The Son of Man taught us the way
to avoid the pitfalls of this
413
00:27:09,620 --> 00:27:13,580
dangerous intoxication.
He taught us to serve one
414
00:27:13,580 --> 00:27:16,820
another.
And so I'm going to close with
415
00:27:16,820 --> 00:27:18,740
the same paragraph that I
started with.
416
00:27:20,290 --> 00:27:25,170
From Paper 12, Section 7, there
is operative throughout
417
00:27:25,450 --> 00:27:29,610
throughout all time and space,
and with regard to all reality
418
00:27:29,610 --> 00:27:33,890
of whatever nature and exorable
and impersonal law, which is
419
00:27:33,890 --> 00:27:36,970
equivalent to the function of
cosmic Providence.
420
00:27:38,050 --> 00:27:42,090
Mercy characterizes God's
attitude of love for the
421
00:27:42,090 --> 00:27:46,010
individual.
Impartiality motivates God's
422
00:27:46,050 --> 00:27:50,740
attitude toward the total.
The will of God does not
423
00:27:50,740 --> 00:27:53,940
necessarily prevail in the part
the heart of any one
424
00:27:53,940 --> 00:27:59,700
personality, but His will does
actually rule the whole the
425
00:27:59,700 --> 00:28:06,220
universe of universes.
So I hope that those words bring
426
00:28:06,220 --> 00:28:11,460
you comfort and inspire you in
in ways that I can only imagine.
427
00:28:11,460 --> 00:28:15,500
But this is a, I think, one of
my most favorite subjects,
428
00:28:15,780 --> 00:28:17,740
something that I've been putting
a lot of thought into.
429
00:28:18,630 --> 00:28:22,390
And I hope that you can
appreciate some of what I've
430
00:28:22,390 --> 00:28:26,350
conveyed on this episode that's
going to do it for this edition
431
00:28:26,350 --> 00:28:29,710
