In these times of uncertainty, change and fear, how will it all end or when is our beginning in Christ to begin ? I turn to a famous scripture by Paul in 2 Corinthians 4:16-19.
"Do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. "
Despite that beautiful saying by Paul, he still invested in a temporal material kingdom presently known as the Christian or Roman Catholic church. Instead of the kingdom within us.
So let us take this same scroll from Paul and give it back to Peter, who truly new Jesus personally and see what he has to say either about this scripture or about the times we appear to be living in ?
Peter : This is Peter, also once known as Simon. In your scriptures it also states that I Peter were an even better orator than Jesus Himsef ? I am truly chagrined, for it is the FATHER in Jesus that puts the words in my mouth. Just like this transmitter is doing now. So I can never take full credit for my sermons back then because they are of God and God only.
But let us get back to this inquiry of this scripture before you fall asleep again, much like a boring church service on a Sunday afternoon much like this one ?
Let me open this letter by quoting Yeshua Ben Yoseph, Jesus Himself ? " Peace be with you all, our peace always be unto you." You are all truly His apostles, though you humbly except the title as agondonters. Truly those who chose to be last will be first in the Family of God. Notice that we no longer refer to Kingdom of God here ?
Once you do arrive here you will observe that there are no queens, princes, dukes or duchess, neither be there a court jester like Weydevue, surfs or peasants.
In heaven in order to have something and keep it, truly is to give it away or rather share it with those that appear to have it not, thus. Unlike your material world where those that have more than enough refuse to share it neither with their progeny, let alone their neighbors on the other side of the picket fence nor across the Great seas.
We up here do indeed hear your prayers and I am come through this one to giveth you your daily bread or rather the meat the world knows not of.
What does this scripture at the top of this transmission mean then ? " Fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. "
While still in the physical our eyes or senses do seem to translate all that is going on in front of us. So what I would like to ask of you is to do and only do that, is to fix your whole mind on GOD. Are you here yet ? There you go , welcome.
Ah yes, in this place where you are now, is there war, famine or pestilence ? Do you feel in need of clothing in this state ? Food in this state ? Or shelter from the cold or heat in this state of being ?
If your answer is no ? Then you have truly succeeded in being reborn into the spirit by investing in that which is eternal, the unseen. The FATHER knows what you need while even there in your humble beginnings Urantia, and will give it to you providing you don't invest in it so much that you want to stay there. Then unfortunately you will have listened to the lies of the serpent and will go down with the ship. Rise then above this Titanic for it was created to keep you drifting away from your true reality. The Heaven that you could experience right now, not something or place unseen after letting go of the physical or what you call death.
Live then to prove Jesus never died on the cross, but live'th in you now! Ask then for the mind in Christ Jesus be in you now and it shall be. Our FATHER is in need of saviors not martyrs.
You can and have indeed nailed yourself to the cross. But the nine inch nails are only held there by your thoughts. Release your thoughts and forgive your own trespasses. And you will truly find yourself with Him now at His grand table set in a garden beyond your imagination, just for the asking because it is HIS will, the FATHER'S that you have what He has. Because that is the purpose of HIS creating you, to know why and remember where you are and where you never left.
Liken to your coins in America that say, " In God We Trust." And so it is.
This has been Peter the Apostle and I leave you for now. Only in the now can you find m again and you are and always have been a thought in the Mind of GOD, And that is your food for thought and it is where we all reside. Enjoy and partake, bless it to receive it, share it to always have it.
Ghost Dancer : Thank Peter for this well needed sermon. Amen
