Martial law. A blog called “Connecting the dots in the New World Order” said in 2008 that “War zone security has arrived in the US as cities are shut down at night by police struggling to control a deadly wave of gun crime.” These actions were seen as both needed and justified. Eddie Perez, the mayor of Hartford, Connecticut, said: “We must do this because we cannot and will not tolerate innocent people, especially children, to be victims.” Mayor Perez ordered a night-time curfew for those under 18 years of age, and it would last for a period of 4 weeks. The same thing happened in Arkansas, in the Helena-West Helena area. Local police were roaming the streets with military-grade weapons and night vision technology. In the UK a trial curfew saw crime drop by 15% and of course there was great clamor to have the curfew extended. Operation Goodnight, the name of the trial, was responsible for a dramatic drop in anti-social behavior. But people in and around the town of Redruth, didn’t see it as an attempt to control crime; they saw it as a creeping curfew all across the UK leading to something darker. And Redfern comments that governments can set curfews under false pretenses in order to gain control of a population. The UK’s Guardian newspaper stated: “From Baltimore, which has one of the strictest curfews in the country, the laws are on the books of hundreds of cities across the country. According to FBI data, there were 2.6 million arrests from 1994 to 2012. That is about 139,000 annually. Philadelphia alone had 16,079 in 2014–among the highest in the country. People are concerned about where this is leading even though curfews are nothing new. They were imposed during WWII so that boys wouldn’t get in trouble while their fathers were off to war. But we live in a different time: we know there is a cabal that wants to kill 6 billion of us; our food is full of poisons; our air isn’t fit to breathe; our vaccines may contain deadly poison or viruses;I could go on–there’s so much. Martial law, says Redfern, is something that people living in a democratic country should not have to put up with. Dictionary.com describes it as “the law temporarily imposed upon an area by state or national military forces when civil authority has broken down or during wartime military operations.” On October 17, 2006, President Bush signed into law the John Warner Defense Authorization Act. This law allows the President to declare a public emergency at his own discretion and place federal troops anywhere throughout the United States. Also the President may employ the armed forces…to restore public order and enforce the laws of the United States, when, as a result of a natural disaster, epidemic, or other serious public emergency, terrorist attack or incident, in any state or possession; the President, determining that the state or possession cannot or will not restore order, will restore order by use of the military forces to suppress any insurrection, violence, or conspiracy. These are the words of Sergeant Major Dan Page, a former Army Ranger: “The new Constitution is ready to go and they only need the right incident to bring it down. We’re not very far away from an event that you would call martial law. That term will never be used, by the way, ’emergency police powers’ will be.” We’ve had incident after incident; we’ve had protests after protests; we’ve had shootings after shootings; pray it never happens.

Urantia Book 97. The life of Jesus of Nazareth, Joshua bin Joseph, Yeshua, Christ Michael, Sovereign God of Nebadon. After the Last Supper, Jesus told them to sit down while he said a few words. He said that they were soon to face difficult times. No longer can you depend on the goodwill of the multitudes when you go preaching to the villages. From now on, he who has a purse, let him take it with him. When you go out into the world to proclaim the gospel, provide for your own support. The time has come for the Son of Man to be glorified, and the Father shall be glorified in me. I am to be with you only a little longer. When you have finished your work on earth, as I have now finished mine, you shall then come to me, even as I now prepare to go to my Father. I am going to leave you, and you will see me no more on earth, but you shall see me in the age to come when you ascend to the kingdom which my Father has given to me. Jesus then gave them a new commandment. He said: “You are to love one another even as I have loved you.” And by this all men will know that you are my disciples if you thus love one another. When I give this commandment, I do not give any new burden upon your souls; rather do I bring you new joy and make it possible for you to experience new pleasure in knowing the delights of the bestowal of your heart’s affection upon your fellow men. I am about to experience the supreme joy, even though enduring outward sorrow, in the bestowal of my affection upon you and your fellow mortals. For no greater love can a man have than laying his life down for his friends. If you will only love one another as I am loving you, you shall be my friends, and I will always speak to you whatever the Father reveals to me. The Father and I will both work with you, and you will experience the divine fullness of joy if you will only obey my command to love one another, even as I have loved you. Such an experience of love does not deliver you from the difficulties of this world; it does not create a new world, but it most certainly does make the old world new. Keep in mind: It is loyalty, not sacrifice that Jesus demands (UB). The Master has taught the apostles that they are the sons of God. He has called them brethren, and now, before he leaves, he calls them friends (180.1.1-6).******* Jesus then told them about the vine and the branches. He was the vine and they were the branches. Any branch that didn’t bear fruit was cut off so the rest of the vine could be much fuller and give more fruit. And then Jesus carried the metaphor to spiritual terms. He said: “He who lives in me, and I in him will bear much fruit of the spirit and experience the supreme joy of yielding this spiritual harvest. If you will maintain this living spiritual connection with me you will bear abundant fruit….But great sorrow later attended the misinterpretation of the Master’s inferences regarding prayer. There would have been little difficulty about these teachings if his exact words had been remembered and subsequently truthfully recorded. But as the record was made, believers eventually regarded prayer in Jesus’ name as a sort of supreme magic, thinking that they would receive from the Father anything they asked for. For centuries honest souls have continued to wreck their faith against this stumbling block. How long will it take the world of believers to understand that prayer is not a process of getting your way, but rather a program of taking God’s way, an experience of learning how to recognize and execute the Father’s will? It is entirely true that, when your will is truly aligned with his, you can ask for anything conceived by that will-union, and it will be granted. And such a will-union is effected by and through Jesus even as the life of the vine flows into and through the branches. When this living connection between divinity and humanity exists, what happens when someone happens to pray for a selfish or vain object or accomplishment? “There can only be one divine answer: more and increased bearing of the fruits of the spirit on the stems of the living branches. When the branch of the vine is alive, there can be only one answer to all its petitions: increased grape bearing. In fact, the branch exist only for, and can do nothing except, fruit bearing, yielding grapes. So does the true believer exist only for the purpose of bearing the fruits of the spirit: to love man as he himself has been loved by God–that we should love one another, as Jesus has loved us? Yes, of course. And when the Father’s hand of discipline is laid upon the vine, it is done in love, so that the vine can bear more fruit. And the Father cuts away only the dead and fruitless branches. Jesus had great difficulty teaching his apostles that prayer is a function of spirit-born believers in the spirit-dominated kingdom (180.2.1-6)

Water 2. Thankfully, not everyone who holds positions of power in the government wishes to see us become a world in which the rich get all the water they want while the rest live in a permanent state of endless near dehydration. NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory has been carefully monitoring this deeply worrying issue for years. It has come up with some intriguing ideas regarding how we might be able to bring us back from the brink of global disaster. According to the JPL, one- third of the earth’s ground water basins are being rapidly depleted by human consumption, despite having little accurate data about how much remains in them. This means that significant segments of earth’s population is consuming ground water quickly without knowing when it will run out. Jay Famiglietti, the senior water scientist at JPL, says we need a coordinated global effort to find out how much is left. Saving ourselves from what might justifiably be called “water slavery” involves the use of a pair of satellites which can monitor the dips and bumps in the gravity of the planet. The presence of dips and bumps is caused by the amount of water in specific areas—or the lack of water. In monitoring the situation carefully, the JPL learned something highly worrying: no fewer than 13 of the world’s largest aquifers are being sucked dry. The earth contains fewer than 40 aquifers, so 1/3 of the aquifers are going to contain no water very soon. And they are not receiving any new water to replace the water used. Five were severely overstressed, and in the driest parts like Africa, the situation is critical. NASA says climate change is making things worse. Socioeconomic issues also make tensions rise and contribute to conflict. Redfern mentions the Arabian Aquifer System, noting that it serves 60 million people. If that goes dry, he says, one can’t even imagine the chaos that would erupt. It is the most depleted and overstressed aquifer on the planet. Three aquifers that are in dire situations are: the Indus Basin serving both India and Pakistan; Northern Africa’s Murzuk-Djado Basin; and California’s Central Valley. If we don’t do something water will be scarce and regulated. The thing to worry about is not a gradual loss of water, but a sudden loss, taking us all by surprise. The JPL notes: the water in the aquifer might last decades or millennia.*******************************Guns. If the controllers succeed in forming a one world totalitarian government, our guns will be confiscated. But not if we use our guns to protect our guns. It would be a civil war, Americans against Americans. We are protected by the 2nd Amendment to the Constitution, which reads: “A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” An internal DOJ memo uncovered Obama’s plan to disarm America, but we have seen no enforced disarmament occur. “USA Today” found that there has been a significant drop in the number of violent crimes in the US. They also noted that half of all America’s guns–133 million–were in the hands of just 3% of American adults. These owners possessed an average of 17 guns each. But its the UN we have to fear. Agenda 21 is already being implemented. People are being taken off their land and put in small apartments in cities. Farmers are told they can no longer work their fields. This is a global enterprise and its terrifying. In 2012 the Social Security Administration purchased a quarter of a million rounds of ammunition. It turns out that SSA has its own police force! People didn’t buy the explanation that the ammunition was for training their police force. It was actually preparing for a nationwide civil uprising—possibly the result of a complete collapse of the entire US economy. They aren’t the only agency doing this, either. And then there’s the plan to cut the population in half by injecting a virus into a flu shot. But that only irritates parents who have to decide whether to have their children immunized. If they don’t and their child gets the measles at daycare, then all the parents are mad and the daycare owner is really annoyed. And then there is the militarization of the police forces. They get all kinds of toys from the Army and get decked out just like a soldier. This gives them more authority? Police have received tens of thousands of machine guns, nearly 200,000 ammunition magazines, thousands of pieces of camouflage and night vision equipment; and hundreds of gun silencers, armored cars and aircraft. The home is no longer a place of sanctuary, The Fourth Amendment has been gutted, and police today have been conditioned to see the citizens they serve as an other–the enemy.

Urantia Book 96. The life of Jesus of Nazareth, Joshua bin Joseph, Yeshua, Christ Michael, Sovereign God of Nebadon. Jesus and the apostles took an alternate route to Jerusalem to avoid the crowds. They stood looking sadly down at the city. Jesus said to them: “The experience you have had with me, you must now make ready to share with others. If it is the Father’s will that I depart, nothing you may do can frustrate the divine plan. Take heed to yourselves lest they kill you also. Don’t be mislead into any foolish attempt to defend the Son of Man; the armies of heaven even now are at hand; but I am determined to do the will of my Father in heaven, and therefore we must submit to that which is so soon to come upon us. When they arrived at the house owned by John Mark’s father, John Mark was there to welcome them. This is where they would have the Passover and last meal together (178.3.1-6).********* The apostles were confused. It was Thursday evening, and Passover wasn’t celebrated until Friday evening. They concluded either that this was a special celebration or that Jesus would be arrested before he could celebrate Passover on Friday evening. They weren’t bothered by lack of a sacrificial lamb because they knew Jesus didn’t use one in hosting Passover. When the apostles looked at the water and cloths for washing their feet, they realized there were no servants to wash their feet. And they swiftly thought that they weren’t going to wash anyone’s feet. It would be too much like a servant. Jesus stayed downstairs talking to John Mark’s family, and the apostles didn’t know whether to seat themselves or not. And they didn’t want to seat themselves without washing their feet. Finally, Judas takes the seat of honor at the left of the host, which immediately stirred up a heated dispute among the other apostles. John Zebedee then laid claim to the seat at the right of the host. Peter, burning by this time, took the seat lowest in importance at the farthest removed from the host. They were now ready to begin the supper, but they were in anything but a pleasant frame of mind. When the Master arrived, they were making very uncomplimentary comments about each other not to mention angry recriminations. The Master ‘s disappointment was plain on his face. (179.1.1-8). Jesus drew water and took towels in order to wash the apostles’ feet. He approached Peter, who panicked. And all the apostles rose to their feet. Peter didn’t want the Master to wash his feet. Jesus had to threaten him: “Peter, I declare that, if I do not wash your feet, you will have no part with me in that which I am about to perform.” Jesus then went around the table washing the feet of all the apostles, even Judas. When he was finished, he gave them a lecture on service. He said: “you have seen the way of service in my life among you, and blessed are you who will have the gracious courage so to serve. But why are you so slow to learn that the secret of greatness in the spiritual kingdom is not like the methods of power in the material world? When I came into this chamber tonight, you were disputing among yourselves about who should have the places of honor at my table. Do you not know that there can be no place of honor at my table? He who would become chief, let him become one who serves. You will observe that I come among you as one who serves. At that point the Alpheus twins brought out the bread and wine, with bitter herbs and the paste of dried fruits, for the next course of the Last Supper. During the Supper Jesus whispered to Judas to go and “what you have decided to do, do quickly.” He also apprised the 11 apostles of the evil in their midst and to be very astute after he was gone (179.4.1-7).* They brought to Jesus the third cup of wine, the blessing cup. Jesus held it up and said: “Take this cup, all of you, and drink of it. This shall be the cup of my remembrance. This is the cup of the blessing of a new dispensation of grace and truth. This shall be to you the emblem of the bestowal and ministry of the divine Spirit of Truth. And I will not again drink this cup with you until I drink in new form with you in the Father’s eternal kingdom.” The apostles sensed something out of the ordinary was happening. The old Passover celebrated liberation from a state of racial slavery into individual freedom; this Passover celebrated the individual’s freedom from ceremonialism and selfishness into the spiritual joy of the brotherhood and fellowship of the liberated faith sons of the living God….And then Jesus took the bread and said: “Take this bread of remembrance and eat it. I have told you that I am the bread of life. And this bread of life is the united life of the Father and Son in one gift. The word of the Father, as revealed in the Son, is indeed the bread of life.” Despite Jesus’ attempt to make it difficult for future generations to attach precise meanings to his teachings, and bind his spiritual teachings by the dead chains of tradition and dogma, the future church did precisely that. His simple spiritual symbolism of that last night in the flesh has been subjected to the almost mathematical precision of a set formula. Of all Jesus’ teachings, none have become more tradition standardized.

Water. Water is the most important commodity on the planet. Most people, right now, have a regular supply of water. There are those times in the summer when a well might go dry, like my landlady’s almost did one summer. We were afraid. And there are hot countries where water is scarce, but food can give water like watermelon. Water helps to ensure that our bodies stay at the temperature of 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit and when we dehydrate, our bodily mechanisms strain to keep our temperatures in check. Death can follow a heatstroke if not treated right away. It’s the one thing we simply can’t do without. It’s easy to see how, if the world’s population is restricted to a limited amount of water on a daily basis, disasters and death could soon follow. Ruthlessly regulating the world’s water supply is, perhaps more than any other, the one way we could find ourselves as slaves to the controllers. But could it happen? Yes, and it would be all too easy to do. Redfern says the world population is growing, maybe to 20 billion, and some one in charge will decide to ration the water. But the population is starting to drop due to the better health of women and their new ability to make choices. But still, his argument is sound. The problem is that nobody knows how much water is left in the aquifers that supply us with water. There is an aquifer under Saudi Arabia that could give water for the next 2 thousand years or the next 20 years. No one knows. Much of our drinking water, especially rivers, are very polluted. Expensive sewage treatment facilities are needed if the water is to be used again. According to the UN Millennium Development Goals Report of 2012, 11% of the global population remain without access to an improved source of drinking water. But the world has made the MDG drinking water five years ahead of time, but there is still work to be done.(Millennium Development Goals) But things are still bad. According to “Market Oracle and Global Research” a disturbing trend in the water sector is accelerating worldwide. The new water barons–the Wall Street Banks and elitist multibillionaires–are buying water up all over the world at an unprecedented pace.” They are meddling with the survival of all of us. And the Bush family have recognized that controlling water is the next big thing. Nestle CEO Peter Brabeck said that no one should consider it a right to have water. He sees a situation in which the government and corporations control the water supplies. His goal is the privatization of water supplies. But there might be a solution.

Urantia Book 95. The life of Jesus of Nazareth, Joshua bin Joseph, Yeshua, Christ Michael, Sovereign God of Nebadon. In the evening of that Wednesday the apostles were gripped with a feeling of foreboding. They knew something was going to happen, and they were tense and restless. Jesus was cheerful, which seemed alien and out of place. Silent messengers came and went, communicating only with David Zebedee. The Master tried to cheer his downcast apostles, but that was well-nigh impossible. This was the occasion of Jesus’ warning his apostles to beware of the support of the multitude. “When the rulers of the Jews reach an agreement to destroy the Son of Man, and when they strike with one accord, you will see the multitudes either flee in dismay or else stand by in silent amazement while these blinded and maddened rulers lead the teachers of the gospel truth to their death… Some who have been very close to us have already made up their minds to desert. Pray that you may be strengthened for the days that are just ahead.” They all felt the terrible isolation which was about to descend with crashing suddenness and inescapable terror. None felt prepared to face the test (177.5.1-4).******************************* Thursday. This would be their last day at camp. They went up the hill to a secluded spot where Jesus could deliver his last address to the apostles and chosen disciples. His discourse was on the topic of Sonship and Citizenship. Jesus said: There is nothing incompatible between the rule of Caesar and the rule of the kingdom, except if Caesar demands worship as a god. In that case you should continue to worship God while instructing the worshipers of Caesar in the kingdom of God. Also you must enlighten such misguided rulers about the truth of the One God. Don’t try to employ physical force to change these rulers, who may sometime become believers, in the work of furthering the mission of the spiritual kingdom. Sonship in the kingdom, from the standpoint of advancing civilization, should assist you in becoming ideal citizens of the kingdoms of this world since brotherhood and service are the cornerstones of the gospel of the kingdom… You should manifest the righteous ministry of loving service to believers and unbelievers alike. In the gospel of the kingdom there resides the mighty Spirit of Truth, and presently I will pour out this Spirit upon all flesh. The fruits of the Spirit, your sincere and loving service, are the mighty social lever to uplift the races of darkness, and this Spirit of Truth will become your power- multiplying fulcrum. Display wisdom and exhibit sagacity in your dealings with unbelieving civil rulers…In every possible way–in every thing short of your spiritual allegiance to the rulers of the universe–seek to live peacefully with all men. Be you always as wise as serpents and as harmless as doves. This gospel will eventually enlighten the whole world and will gradually result in the separation of politics and religion. The persistent preaching of this gospel will someday bring to all nations a new and unbelievable liberation, intellectual freedom and religious liberty. Do not try to force people to believe in the kingdom of heaven. Remember always: what ever you would like done to you, do so to your brother.” You are not to be passive mystics or colorless ascetics; you should not become dreamers and drifters, supinely trusting in a fictitious Providence to provide even the necessities of life. You must be aggressive in the preaching of this gospel of the kingdom, even to the ends of the earth. From generation to generation this gospel must show increasing vitality and exhibit greater depth of spiritual power. It must not be allowed to become merely a sacred memory, a mere tradition about me and the times in which we now live. And forget not: we have not made any direct attack upon the persons or the authority of those who sit in Moses’ seat; we only offered them the new light, which they have so far vigorously rejected…. But you are not to attack the old ways; you are to put skillfully the leaven of new truth into the midst of old beliefs. Remember to love one another. Show yourselves to be loyal citizens, upright artisans, praiseworthy neighbors, devoted kinsmen, understanding parents, and sincere believers in the brotherhood of the Father’s kingdom. And my spirit will be upon you, now, and to the end of the world”(178.1.1-17).

Erasing History. One way we are being controlled is by keeping us ignorant of certain historical events. The UB mentions Enki, the Annunaki, only briefly , but it doesn’t say anything about how the Reptilians took over the Annunaki and the rest of the world. Adam and Eve, who were sent to earth/Urantia to uplift the races, defaulted and left earth before their job was finished. The Smithsonian takes all the bones of giants (12-15 feet tall) and puts them into the basement so no one can see them. Bones? What bones? The Controllers have hidden or destroyed history all over the planet. There are very large cities underground which we are not allowed to know about. UFOs haven’t had a public introduction-its still a big mystery. The secret space programs are still off limits to the masses. Roswell is still a mystery, and it hasn’t been determined if that body is a biological robot, or a clone or a living/breathing ET–and after all these years. I know those little grays are real. I saw one on YouTube at the Skinwalker Ranch. The thing was peeking out from behind a chair. Steven Schiff, a Congressman from New Mexico, tried to find out what happened at Roswell, and was told the records were gone. The GAO looked into and they were told that files from 1945 to 1951 couldn’t be located. And the cover-ups by the government have kept the public in the dark. The assassination of President Kennedy is one example. The story is that Lee Harvey Oswald shot Kennedy from a book depository and all the other details are ignored. The attack on the World Trade Center and two other targets we are told was planned and carried out by Muslim extremists. None of the thousands of tiny clues that tell a different story are considered. And then there’s the Baghdad Museum. Someone who knew exactly which artifacts he wanted and where they were raided the museum before soldiers could get there to guard it. For one of the artifacts they would need a forklift. This has the fingerprints of elite controllers all over it. Now the Sumerian and Babylonian clay tablets are in danger–they tell the stories of our earliest beginnings. Many people are in the dark about a plan of the controllers to cut the population of the earth down to 1 billion; some say 500,000,000. Labs are places where all kinds of substances are produced, deadly viruses among them. We have no way of knowing whether these scientists are working for the controllers, but we know of many wrong headed decisions made in the FDA. We still have fluoride in our water. And then there is chemtrails? Jim Marrs, a conspiracy researcher, looked into this topic. It seems that he connected with a Louisiana TV station which was also researching chemtrails. Jeff Ferrell, an investigative journalist, had water tested that came from a chemtrail. The water contained levels of barium more than 3 times greater than recommended by the EPA. The US Agency for Toxic Substances & Disease Registry says of barium: “Eating or drinking very large amounts of barium compounds that dissolve in water or in the stomach can cause changes in heart rhythm or paralysis in humans. Some people who did not seek medical treatment have died.” So now we know; we’re being poisoned. It also said the Controllers are dumping this largely over the US but not at all over China because they want to see China become the next superpower. Nice, huh?

Urantia Book 94. The life of Jesus of Nazareth, Joshua bin Joseph, Yeshua, Christ Michael, Sovereign God of Nebadon. On Wednesday they rested. Jesus wanted to go into the hills by himself, but John Mark, a young follower, had made a lunch for him and wanted to go with him. When Jesus reached for the bag containing the lunch, John Mark didn’t let go of it, so Jesus allowed him to go into the mountains with him. They didn’t return until after dark, and Jesus told Mark not to tell anyone of what they discussed, and he never did. Jesus told Mark about the development of children; that everything in a person’s life depends on the first few years of life. A child must have reliable parents who love him or her. The discipline must be consistent. A child is dependent on his parents and his home life for all his concepts of everything intellectual, social, moral and even spiritual, since the child gets his God-concept from his parents. A human being’s entire afterlife is enormously influenced by what happens during the first few years of existence. Jesus praised John Mark’s upbringing because it had turned him into a beautiful and spiritual young man. He said: ” You possess a strong and well-knit character because you grew up in a home where love prevailed and wisdom reigned. Such a childhood training produces a type of loyalty which assures me that you will go through the course you have begun. The UB is of the opinion that: “It is true that many of the objectionable stunting influences and other cramping features of these olden Jewish homes have been virtually eliminated from many of the better regulated modern homes. There is indeed, more spontaneous freedom and far more personal liberty, but this liberty is not restrained by love, motivated by loyalty, nor directed by the intelligent discipline of wisdom.” Note: I was one of those children not raised with love, but I’ve had a lifetime of experience which has told me to “just get over it!” And my viewpoint helps me see that my parents did their best. I had horses when I was a teen, and that doesn’t sound bad at all.*(177.2.1-7).*************************** The apostles were lonely and wished Jesus would come back from his walk; also they resented John Mark for going with him. And they were concerned about his safety. Around 4PM David Zebedee showed up and said Jesus’ mother had been contacted and the whole family was travelling to Jerusalem. David knew that the chief priests were going to kill Jesus; he was convinced that Jesus would do nothing to save himself nor allow the apostles to do anything to save him. He also sent to have his mother come to Jerusalem with Jesus’ mother. But he kept all this to himself. After noon over 20 of the Greeks who had met with Jesus at the home of Joseph of Arimathea came to the camp. Some of them were advanced in kingdom knowledge having learned from Rodan at Alexandria. When Jesus arrived, he wanted to ordain some of them, but knew it would deeply disturb his apostles and his leading disciples. Meanwhile in Jerusalem, the Jewish leaders wondered why Jesus hadn’t appeared to take advantage of the huge and favorable crowds. They were also busy getting ready for Passover and perfecting their plans for destroying Jesus (177.3.1-7). Judas slipped from camp and went to Jerusalem to the home of Caiaphas, the high priest. The Sanhedrin was meeting informally to discuss the charges to be lodged against Jesus and how to bring him before the Roman authorities to secure the necessary civil confirmation of the death sentence which they had already passed upon him. Judas was convinced that Jesus would allow himself to be defeated (as Judas saw it) by the Jewish leaders and be killed. Judas did not want to be identified with a leader that went to his defeat and death like a sheep (again, as Judas saw it). Judas pretended to his relatives that he was seeking a graceful way of withdrawing from the “movement.” They let him believe that his withdrawal would be hailed as a great event by the Jewish rulers. One of Judas’ relatives suggested that, while Jesus was a well-meaning fanatic, was not really of sound mind; that he had always appeared to be a strange and misunderstood person. Judas derived pleasure from this remark. Judas found himself being resentful about many trivial things: Jesus had never assigned him a position of greater honor.He felt he was not appreciated as group treasurer.His abilities were unrecognized.He was indignant that Peter, James and John had been honored with close association with Jesus.He decided to get even with the 3 apostles. Judas’ hopes would be high and then Jesus would say something to dash those hopes.He was seized with a terrible conspiracy of confusion, pride, desperation and determination.He realized it was not money he was on his way to Caiaphas’ house for, it was to betray Jesus. Judas was introduced to Caiaphas and all would have gone well, but Judas announced he would betray Jesus and wanted something in return. At that point all present looked at him with disdain; he would never be one of them. He would be an outcast, which is where he belonged.

The Agenda. Dr. Samuel L. Blumenfeld said: “Since public school authorities always complain of lack of parental interest in their children’s education, its a great pleasure watching parents at homeschool conventions poring over books, listening attentively to speakers, and purchasing curricula. Homeschooling has made these parents intensely interested in the education of their children. This can only benefit the family and society we live in. America is at a very crucial period in our history. Our national sovereignty is being continuously diminished by the New World Order clique that wants us to spearhead the movement into world government.” Blumenfeld thinks that students are being indoctrinated into the concepts of world citizenship and ethnocentrism, which is defined as the “evaluation of other cultures according to preconceptions originating in the standards and customs of one’s own culture.” So Redfern believes students are being “dumbed down.” I disagree. There are all levels of students. My grandchildren are in advanced classes, and special education students are mainstreamed. Some special education students take their courses with a special education teacher, but they are the same courses as the mainstreamed students take. So the proper way to see education in America is to see it in layers. It’s not black and white.*** The second way the controllers are trying to dumb us down is their attacks on journalism and journalists. Investigative journalism is almost at the vanishing point, according to Redfern. The media fails to inform us of world events that we have a right to know about; and its a war that is being fought with “incredible and disturbing speed.”* There is a potential tragedy brewing in the UK. The newspaper, “Telegraph” reported a story that should make journalists weep. “New laws restricting Britain’s free press is coming into force…its the most substantial threat to press freedom in the modern era. “The Telegraph’s” landmark investigation into the MPs’ expenses would have been all but impossible under the new regime. Let me add another note on education. The materials are provided for every student and all of them even have tablets or any device they can use to connect with the internet. That’s ALL of them. They frequently do their assignments on them. People who criticize education without having spent one day in a classroom are dumber than the students they are calling dumb.

Urantia Book 93. The life of Jesus of Nazareth, Joshua bin Joseph, Yeshua, Christ Michael, Sovereign God of Nebadon. Back at the camp the apostles were interested in the destruction of Jerusalem, the Master’s departure and the end of the world. They had no interest in going to sleep. As they gathered around the campfire, Thomas asked: “Since you are to return to finish the work of the kingdom, what should be our attitude while you are away on the Father’s business?” Jesus answered: “And even you, Thomas, fail to comprehend what I have been saying. Have I not all this time taught you that your connection with the kingdom is spiritual and individual, wholly a matter of personal experience in the spirit by the faith realization that you are a son of God? Since your lives have been lived in the spirit and for the Father, nothing can be of serious concern to you. Kingdom builders, the accredited citizens of the heavenly worlds, are not to be disturbed by temporal upheavals or perturbed by terrestrial cataclysms. What does it matter to you who believe this gospel of the kingdom if nations overturn, the age ends, or all things visible crash, since you know that your life is the gift of the Son, and that it is eternally secure in the Father? Each generation of believers should carry on their work, in view of the possible return of the Son of Man, exactly as each individual believer carries forward his lifework in view of inevitable and ever-impending natural death. When you have by faith once established yourself as a son of God, nothing else matters as regards the surety of survival.” Jesus then told a parable. A great man was going on a journey and he put all his possessions into the hands of his servants. One servant got 5 talents; another servant got 2 talents and a third servant got 1 talent. When he came home, the servant with 5 talents had earned 5 more; the servant with 2 talents had earned 2 more. The man was very pleased with them. But he was angry with the third servant because he had put the talent in the ground and hadn’t made any money with it. The man said the servant could have put it in a bank and received some interest. The man took the talent away from the lazy servant and gave it to the one with 10 talents. Jesus explained the meaning of the parable: “To everyone who has, more shall be given, and he shall have abundance; but from him who has not, even that which he has will be taken away. You cannot stand still in the affairs of the eternal kingdom. My Father requires all his children to grow in grace and in a knowledge of the truth. You who know these truths must yield the increase of the fruits of the spirit and manifest a growing devotion to unselfish service to your fellow servants. And remember that, inasmuch as you minister to one of the least of my brethren, you have done this service to me. And so should you go about the work of the Father’s business, now and henceforth, even forevermore. Carry on until I come. (why is he misleading them? we know from our 21C vantage point that he never came) The UB admits it has no idea when or under what circumstances that Michael will return to earth. There may be several such events. There might be events where only the eyes of faith can see him. He is Planetary Prince of Urantia, so that title would suggest that he would visit Urantia at least occasionally. A Planet Prince is invisible and he-Caligastia- worked on race relations in ancient times. Jesus had a Melchizedek standing in for him, so that may be the case now.
