Clarification: temporal and eternal

Clarification: temporal and eternal

I posted recently on the caution in part four of the Urantia revelation that in these days the greatest threat to believers will be holding to their faith, and reminded people that in the end all that really matters in this brief life is dying with our belief in the fatherhood of God and knowing that we have progressively grown in our ability to show others the fruits of the spirit and in turn draw them to God the father.

I should have said “all that really matters in an eternal sense,” so it did not appear that temporal matters were unimportant, which was pointed out in one of my posts.

To be clear, and more than I care to share, tattooed on my back in Latin is “Defend liberty, Protect the innocents, and Serve man for God.” I live this, and if I ever have a chance to serve again in the effort to end the harm now being done to children, I will and God have mercy on the bad guys because I will be stretched to offer it.

Our duty on Earth is to become the best we can be so we can in turn better serve humanity for the sake of God. That said, at the point of death—no matter what did or did not happen in your brief life—ALL that matters is your faith in God and knowing you showed some level, no matter how small, of progress in your life. If not, it ends. Your choice.

Please, everyone, time is short. Put parts 1-3 of the revelation aside for a time and study as best you can the life and teachings of Jesus. Anyone can memorize static information and pet their ego and run around feeling like they know something “special.” But few people can engage material that puts them immediately in front of the mirror and challenges them to become better people for the sake of God. Part 4 of the revelation has the information needed to transform ourselves and hence the world, but it cannot be told to people it has to be shown. The more we can speak less and instead draw people to us through our conduct the better we serve the kingdom of heaven.
