For centuries, valiant men and women have spoken out to connect people’s hearts with the Commandments of God. The prophets of old taught obedience to what was right because it was the right thing to do. Disobedience, sin, has ramifications in the physical world; in our bodies and in our societies. Babylon, the fallen system, is wrought with greed and jealousy. The ideal state, Divine Administration, is a society of law and order, based on personal self-control and discipline. This teaching includes comments from Minister TaliSeen JahRing on the 10 Commandments and their role in modern life.

In the development of any state, there can be a division of ideologies that can strain international relations, where nations will rise against nations. We should strive to become a Global Village, and ultimately a Global Family. “The political or administrative form of a government is of little consequence provided it affords the essentials of civil progress—liberty, security, education, and social co-ordination.” Niánn Emerson Chase discusses the three great drives of any ideal state; love loyalty, intelligent patriotism, and cosmic insight.

Jesus of Nazareth was both the Son of God and the Son of Man. Yet His personality remained unified. Not only did he gain experience by living life as a part of his own creation, but he also revealed a perfect pattern of personality. Many people downplay the nature of God as a personality, preferring to think of God as an ‘energy’ or ‘force’ because humans don’t like to be told what to do. The laws of the Universal Father are written; He is the Great Corrector. Jesus corrected others and revealed the nature of the Father in the flesh. The URANTIA Book reveals a more expanded concept of Jesus as Christ Michael of Nebadon, Creator Son of our Local Universe. This teaching also contains comments from Minister Beyana Grace on ‘common sense.’ From a teaching from The URANTIA Book Paper 100, Section 7 - The Acme of Religious Living --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/vanetics/message

Jesus Christ Michael, a Local Universe Creator Son, displays the essence of the Divine to his creation. He is the unified pattern of personality which represents the ultimate pattern of personality, the Eternal Son. This personality sonship extends to us human mortals; ascending sons and daughters of God the Father. In this way, we are all children of God; not spiritual orphans, but cosmic citizens of Divine Sonship. Jesus revealed the full potential of a balanced and unified personality. In this way he fulfilled a religious life and a perfect example of true spirituality.

“Energy follows thought” is a basic tenet of the Ascension Science teachings of Fifth Epochal Revelation.  Gabriel of Urantia teaches “thought to disease” - the understanding that all disease has origin in thoughts that are out of alignment with God and out of divine pattern.  Fifth Epochal Revelation teaches that pride and selfishness are a result of the Lucifer Rebellion which started approximately 200,000 years ago and is the cause of the various forms of dis-ease on our world today. Gabriel of Urantia encourages prayer as an antidote to pride; prayer is an act of humility and thankfulness to God.  Prayer helps us overcome the lower nature.  Gabriel shares this simple but powerful teaching, “We overcome evil by doing good.  The spirit is always stronger than the flesh.  Do the right thing.” From a teaching from The URANTIA BOOK Paper 34, Section 7 - The Spirit and the Flesh --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/vanetics/message

It is the ability to recognize God’s laws and the willingness to follow them that separates humans from animals as morally-conscious creatures.  In this episode, Niánn Emerson Chase discusses the relationship of the spirit and the flesh as taught in Fifth Epochal Revelation.  As animal-origin beings endowed with a fragment of God, our ascension path is to grow out of the animal nature and into spiritual sons and daughters.  God’s divine laws are given to lead our ascending souls on the journey to Paradise and personality perfection, and to assist and encourage us in the struggle to overcome our material nature with our higher, spiritual nature. “Having started out on the way of life everlasting, having accepted the assignment and received your orders to advance, do not fear the dangers of human forgetfulness and mortal inconstancy, do not be troubled with doubts of failure or by perplexing confusion, do not falter and question your status and standing, for in every dark hour, at every crossroad in the forward struggle, the Spirit of Truth will always speak, saying, ‘This is the way.’” ~ The URANTIA Book, 34:7.8 From a teaching from The URANTIA BOOK Paper 34, Section 7 - The Spirit and the Flesh --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/vanetics/message

In this episode Gabriel of Urantia teaches about the absolutes of God and His cosmic laws of cause and effect.  When we accept God as our Father, we should begin to realize we are called to follow His will for our lives.  This is where we find divine order, safety and protection.  A good father is a protector. God set the cosmic absolute laws of cause and effect in motion for all eternity for the good of all.  Lucifer denied God and His laws, bent truth and caused confusion and chaos on our world and others.  Without God’s absolutes we waiver and this is the harvest of the Lucifer Rebellion we reap in our world today - selfishness and greed. Gabriel of Urantia teaches about the ascension path and the power of our choices.  We have all been affected by the fallen concepts of the Lucifer Rebellion and need to understand what they are in order to make the changes for healing and spiritual growth at this time of purification our world is in. “We are coming to the close of everything that’s ugly and terrible, and we’re coming to the world of beauty, understanding, compassion, sensitivity, kindness...that’s the world we’re coming into.” ~ Gabriel of Urantia From a teaching from The URANTIA Book, Paper 156, Section 2 - “Teaching in Sidon” --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/vanetics/message

In Jesus’ day many people missed the opportunity for their highest spiritual growth due to religious pride, and we still wrestle with this problem today.  In this teaching Niánn Emerson Chase draws from a section in The URANTIA Book called “Teaching at Sidon” about a point in Jesus’ teaching mission in which many of his own Jewish people were in hostile array against him because he refused the political and religious positions they wanted him to take up.  The Jewish leaders of that time were stuck in static religious doctrine and comfortable in their positions of power.  They refused to accept the expanded spiritual teachings of Jesus that would change their lives. Continual spiritual progress and openness to the leading of the Spirit of Truth is essential for soul growth.  If we become too attached to our positions or perspectives, too crystalized in our beliefs and agendas, we may miss the next revelation of truth God is bringing us.

2,000 years ago the Master taught the importance of community.  He taught his apostles and disciples to share all things and to break bread together in order to foster the spirit of brother and sisterhood.  The churches in America and the Westernized world today have gotten far away from Jesus’ teachings about community and this has caused a breakdown of family and of people truly caring for one another. In this episode, Gabriel of Urantia discusses the need for community living, as he wrote in his book, “Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf” about how to create and maintain a community.  Gabriel talks about his childhood, growing up in a poor neighborhood in Pittsburgh.  They didn’t have much but everyone helped and took care of each other.  If someone lost their job, others would lend them money, make sure their kids had Christmas presents, invite them over to eat, etc.  This is what Jesus taught and is the foundation for the community of Divine Administration Gabriel of Urantia and Niánn Emerson Chase established in 1989 that continues to grow and thrive today.

Spiritual growth is the ultimate goal for all ascending sons and daughters of God, but many people resist the effort and challenges that come with a life dedicated to seeking God’s will moment to moment.  One must disown the past and old ways of identifying in order to move forward and “become anew in God.”  Often truth seekers are misunderstood and criticized even by friends and family. In this episode, Niánn Emerson Chase discusses the challenges Jesus faced as the highest spiritual teacher who ever walked the planet.  As revealed in The URANTIA Book, Jesus was loved and revered for his goodness, but also misperceived and even demonized by those who did not like his strong confrontation of evil, sin and iniquity, or his declaration of the equality of all people as God’s children.  Even Jesus’ own family all misunderstood and doubted him except for his youngest sister, Ruth.  This is a challenge those seeking truth and spiritual progress face. “Jesus did not forsake his earth family to do the Father’s work - They forsook him.” ~ The URANTIA Book From a teaching from The URANTIA Book, Paper 154, Section 6 - “Jesus’ Family Arrives” --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/vanetics/message

Hardly anyone will argue that we all want a better world and most share a common vision of what that looks like - peace, health, economic security, sustainable systems for our planet’s ecology, intellectual and spiritual progress for all, destiny fulfillment, etc.  In this episode an expanded understanding of how to achieve this vision is given within the context of the teachings of the Fifth Epochal Revelation (The URANTIA Book) and Divine Administration principles. The ideal of a Utopian society has its root in the divine pattern structures of higher worlds of Light and Life throughout the Grand Universe, revealed in The URANTIA Book and The Cosmic Family volumes.  The key to this divine pattern is the desire for God’s will, and the continuous growth, change and transformation God’s will brings in our lives. Divine Administration and the Divine New Order prototype community of Global Community Communications Alliance is founded on this principle and is creating a higher spiritual culture and society of unity without uniformity for missionaries, Destiny Reservists and Change Agents called to help usher in the First Stage of Light and Life on our world.
