Transcript
- 0:00Well, we're together again and thank you so much for tuning
- 0:03into the Urantia Radio Podcast. My name is Jim Watkins.
- 0:07I've been reading the Urantia book since 1982 when I was 19
- 0:12years old. Before that I was a happy go
- 0:15lucky Christian and I was off on my new life just getting into my
- 0:20career and reading the Urantia book.
- 0:22And it took it with me everywhere I went across the
- 0:25great country that I live in. And so I like to share and talk
- 0:29about this revelation and we will.
- 0:31And often times I don't like to talk about current events for
- 0:35the simple reason that if I talk about something that's happening
- 0:39today, the episode will be around for years.
- 0:43And sometimes it won't make sense if you're listening to me
- 0:46say 2 years from now and you're hearing me talk about something
- 0:50that's come and gone. But I think with the tensions
- 0:53that are rising in the Middle East, everybody is rightfully
- 0:57nervous, worried about it because it could be biblical.
- 1:01It could be of, you know, prophecy.
- 1:03A lot of people holds a prophecy and that these may be a
- 1:08dispensation of some kind. But there's no doubt that Israel
- 1:13and Iran have been at this for a long, long time.
- 1:16What makes this different, obviously, is the nuclear
- 1:19element, the fact that Iran is enriching uranium, and
- 1:24rightfully, because, you know, there's just a little history,
- 1:28back when Libya was run by Moammar Gaddafi, he had nuclear
- 1:35weapons and he agreed to give them up.
- 1:39And then he got killed by Americans to the lesson that the
- 1:46Ayatollah Khamenei is, well, we got to have nuclear weapons,
- 1:50otherwise America will just take over.
- 1:54And so that's led. And also not to mention, I don't
- 1:57want to downplay this at all, but Iran has been a sponsor of
- 2:02global terror for a long time. They hold to a very extreme
- 2:05version of Islam and they are hell bent on destroying Israel
- 2:12because they believe it is their divine duty to do so.
- 2:17That at least is the culture of the and the mindset of the
- 2:20people who run that country. So it's tense right now and
- 2:25people are nervous about it because it could disrupt
- 2:27everything if the United States gets involved or too involved.
- 2:32The repercussions there talk to people a lot who are concerned
- 2:36about terrorists that might be sleeper cells.
- 2:39So it's it's put a lot of people at ease.
- 2:41I myself have I'm I'm not inoculated from this as much as
- 2:46I have faith in the most highs. I also see the the perspective
- 2:50of war and I want to talk about paper 70 in the Arantia book,
- 2:55just the one paper. And even that I'm only going to
- 2:59read maybe two or three paragraphs.
- 3:01And it takes us through the timeline and helps us understand
- 3:05what the mechanism of war is all about and, and how it's been a
- 3:09part of civilization for as long as civilization has existed.
- 3:15And we're going to do that in just a minute.
- 3:16So hang on. And I've also got some good news
- 3:19to share with you about other things that I've involved with
- 3:22it you might want to check out. And we'll do all that in just a
- 3:26second. So hang on, You're listening to
- 3:28the Rancho Radio podcast. One of the things that happened
- 3:47recently. Welcome back is that I was able
- 3:51to spend some time with my now friend and his name is Santiago
- 3:57Neeland and he lives in Spain and he does a new podcast and
- 4:01he's heavily involved in this podcast.
- 4:03It's all about the Urantia book and all about the Divine within.
- 4:06That's the name of the podcast. And he caught up with me and we
- 4:09did an interview a couple of days ago and he's in post
- 4:13production. And so, you know, in a couple of
- 4:16weeks, go on YouTube and look up the divine within and it might
- 4:21pop up and you'll see my name, Jim Watkins.
- 4:23And we had a nice chat about a lot of different things.
- 4:26And I, I think you'll enjoy it. For those who may not be
- 4:31familiar, I want to give a quick breakdown to how the Urantia
- 4:34book is structured and in sort of my own thoughts on why the
- 4:38book is structured in the way that it's structured.
- 4:41And to me, it, it, it's a timeline.
- 4:44If you're moving from left to right, it is a literal timeline
- 4:47of creation, moving from the first original, first source and
- 4:51center and back to before time as we would reckon it.
- 4:56And then you move to the right and now you're moving towards
- 5:00the present day. So the first part of the Urantia
- 5:04book and it's divided into 4 parts and the first part is all
- 5:09about God and paradise and the Trinity and the relationship
- 5:15that the Trinity has to reality as we know it, The Trinity being
- 5:21God the Father, God the Son and God the Spirit.
- 5:25And then the second part of the Urantia book, Part 2 really
- 5:30delves into the activities of the local area of space that we
- 5:35live in, which is under the domain of Jesus Christ.
- 5:40And that would be called Nevadon.
- 5:42And before Jesus incarnated as a as a son, as the Son of the
- 5:48Father, the highest representative of the Father's
- 5:51nature that we could possibly experience, he was known as
- 5:55Michael on, on Nebadon or Michael.
- 5:59And Michael is often, or maybe not, maybe there is an Archangel
- 6:03Michael, I don't know. But the Archangel Michael is
- 6:07very much a part of Christology. And the reason is that Michael
- 6:11is Michael of Nebadon. That is his name.
- 6:14He is the highest order of sonship in our universe.
- 6:19So when he says he who has seen me has seen the father, he's
- 6:22being absolutely literal. So Part 2 of the Urantia book is
- 6:27about his creation. So now we're moving outward.
- 6:31And then we finally get to Part 3, which is a very exciting part
- 6:34of the Urantia book. And it is called The History of
- 6:37Urantia. And it goes from the beginning
- 6:39of our solar system and the birth of our solar system
- 6:43actually, and it moves outward. And it starts with paper 57.
- 6:48So now you're already 57 papers into this book.
- 6:52And it finally gets to that section where they talk about
- 6:55our early years, how life was established.
- 7:00And then it gives a chronological summary of how we
- 7:03went from marine life to the early land life to the mammalian
- 7:09era of our world. And then finally to the
- 7:13appearance of the dawn races of early man pre man.
- 7:17And then it it it comes to the point in paper 63 where it talks
- 7:23about the first human family and what made them truly human.
- 7:27The story of Andon and Fonta and and and let it be known that the
- 7:32Oranga book asserts that evolution is not accidental or
- 7:37causational or repercussional. It is intelligently controlled
- 7:43and guided. We are not an experiment.
- 7:48We were planned. And it's important to make that
- 7:52distinction because while it promotes the idea of evolution,
- 7:57it doesn't take away from the creatorship intelligent design
- 8:03foundation of which we base our belief in God.
- 8:08So God has his divine hand interceding and, and, and I know
- 8:12that's hard for people. Oh, well, why would he be doing
- 8:15that? Until you understand the true
- 8:17nature and the size and scope and the depth of deity, it
- 8:22becomes easier to understand when you understand that it's
- 8:25not just him. He has all kinds of divine
- 8:28attributes. He has seven levels of distinct
- 8:31reality that He has the founder of and sponsor of, and we are in
- 8:35just one perspective of that. We are.
- 8:38We are at the tail end. We're at the very bottom of that
- 8:42intelligent design. And the part that makes us
- 8:45created in His image is that His actual spirit fragment resides
- 8:50in our minds. That is how we are connected to
- 8:54Him. This is why we can pray to Him,
- 8:56why we can worship, why we commune.
- 8:59So for people who say that religion is completely
- 9:02evolutionary, they would be wrong.
- 9:05There is a divine hand. There isn't divine.
- 9:07There is divine and, and guess what?
- 9:09You're part of it. Whether you agree with it or
- 9:12not, you are a part of that plan.
- 9:14And so in the paper of, of, of the history of Urantia, it, it
- 9:19takes us through the early stages of the human family.
- 9:23Then it addresses the different sort of offspring of the
- 9:28evolutionary races of color. There was there were variants
- 9:32introduced about 1/2 a million years ago and human beings
- 9:36evolved to a slightly higher level.
- 9:38Then it talks about the over control of evolution and then at
- 9:42that point it it it goes to about 500,000 years ago and what
- 9:47has has has happened since. So now we're in paper 67, for
- 9:52example, or 66, and we talk about the era right after the
- 9:56appearance of the colored races. Then they get into the dawn of
- 10:00civilization where these various tribes that started to appear
- 10:05and populate the earth, the early period of of how we
- 10:10invented things, our cultural traits, why we worship, what did
- 10:15we worship? It takes us through a whole
- 10:16period so that we better understand our early beginnings,
- 10:20much of it lost, by the way, and yet to be discovered by
- 10:24archaeology. And then they start to address
- 10:29to us about primitive human institutions.
- 10:32And for example, when you think about the different
- 10:36institutions, the dawn of industry, the specialization,
- 10:42specialization of Labor, the beginnings of trade between the
- 10:46tribes, the beginnings of capital, where you have people
- 10:49who have wealth because they produce.
- 10:53And then it talks about fire and fire in relation to
- 10:58civilization, which is interesting.
- 11:00You should read that sometime. It's Paper 69, section 6.
- 11:05Then it talks about the utilization of animals.
- 11:08And if you think about these are all just slices.
- 11:11These are evolutionary gradations of development
- 11:15towards a more progressive society, which is what we have
- 11:18today. It also addresses slavery in
- 11:21early civilization. And then it talks about private
- 11:25property. And that was really the
- 11:28beginning of a, of more enduring of a type of civilization.
- 11:32But I want to talk to you about Paper 70 as it relates to today
- 11:37because in this section we find 2 chapters. 1 is called the
- 11:43genesis of war and the social value of war.
- 11:47And so I'll read to you and I haven't read this probably in a
- 11:50few months. I read it from time to time just
- 11:53to get a, a, you know, a brush up.
- 11:56And it sets the stage on why, why we maybe it'll answer for
- 12:00you and, and me why we're at this stage.
- 12:04So let's begin and you can read along if you want to.
- 12:06Paper 70, the evolution of a human government.
- 12:10We're only going to do 33 papers.
- 12:12No sooner had man partially solve the problem of making a
- 12:16living than he was confronted with the task of regulating
- 12:19human contacts. The development of industry
- 12:22demanded law, order and social adjustment.
- 12:26Private property necessitated government.
- 12:29On an evolutionary world, antagonisms are natural.
- 12:32Peace is secured only by some sort of social regulative
- 12:36system. Social regulation is inseparable
- 12:39from social organization. Associations implies some
- 12:43controlling authority and government compels the
- 12:46coordination of the antagonisms of the tribes, clans, families
- 12:51and individuals. Government is an unconscious
- 12:54development. It evolves by trial and error.
- 12:58It does not. It does have survival value.
- 13:01Therefore, it becomes traditional anarchy, augmented
- 13:05misery. Therefore, government,
- 13:08comparative law and order slowly emerged or is emerging.
- 13:13The coercive demands of the struggle for existence literally
- 13:16drove the human race along progressive roads to
- 13:19civilization. So because we desire law and
- 13:23order or because we like to be safe, we created law and order,
- 13:28we created government. We we put power in people's
- 13:31hands to regulate so that the the what is it?
- 13:35The lesser angels of our nature don't dominate.
- 13:38Because if you have a Society of savages and they never civilize,
- 13:44then you have no society. It, it, it is a perpetually in
- 13:48disarray. And mankind, because of
- 13:51intelligence demanded something more.
- 13:55That's what that first paragraph is saying, the genesis of war.
- 13:59This is section one from the same paper. 70 War is the
- 14:03natural state and heritage of evolving man.
- 14:06Peace in the Social Yardstick Peace is the social yardstick
- 14:12measuring civilizations Advancement Before the Before
- 14:16the partial socialization of the advancing races, man was
- 14:21exceedingly individualistic, extremely suspicious, and
- 14:25unbelievably quarrelsome. Violence is the law of nature,
- 14:30hostility the automatic reaction of the children of nature, while
- 14:35war is but the same activities carried on collectively.
- 14:40And whenever and wherever the fabric of civilization becomes
- 14:43stressed by the complications of society's advancement, there is
- 14:47always an immediate and ruinous reversion to these early methods
- 14:52of violent adjustment, of the irritations of human
- 14:56interassociation. War is an animalistic reaction
- 15:02to misunderstandings and irritations.
- 15:06Peace attends upon the civilized solution of all problems and
- 15:10difficulties. The Sangak or colored races,
- 15:15together with the later deteriorated Adamites and
- 15:18Nodites, were all belligerent. The Andonites.
- 15:22These are first Andon and Font of the first human family were
- 15:27early taught the Golden Rule, and even today their Eskimo
- 15:31descendants live very much by that code.
- 15:34Custom is strong among them and they are fairly free free from
- 15:38violent antagonisms. Interesting note about the
- 15:41Eskimos, or what we call today the Inuit.
- 15:46And on taught his children to settle disputes by beating a
- 15:49tree with a stick, meanwhile cursing the tree.
- 15:54The one whose stick broke first was the the winner, the victor.
- 15:58The later Andonites used to settle disputes by holding a
- 16:01public show at which the disputants made fun and
- 16:05ridiculed each other, while the audience decided the winner by
- 16:08its applause. But there could be no such
- 16:12phenomena as war until society had evolved sufficiently far to
- 16:17actually experience periods of peace and to sanction warlike
- 16:22practices. The very concept of war implies
- 16:26some degree of organization. With the emergence of social
- 16:30groupings, individual irritations began to be
- 16:33submerged in the group feelings, and this promoted inter tribal
- 16:37tranquility, but at the expense of inter tribal peace.
- 16:42Peace was thus first enjoyed by the in Group or tribe who always
- 16:47disliked and hated the out group foreigners.
- 16:51Early man regarded it as a virtue to shed alien blood, but
- 16:58even this did not work at first. When the early chiefs would try
- 17:02to iron out misunderstandings, they often found it necessary at
- 17:06least once a year to permit the tribe stone fights.
- 17:10The clan would divide up into two gangs or groups and engage
- 17:15in an all day battle. And this for no other reason
- 17:18than just the fun of it. They really enjoyed fighting.
- 17:21Human beings really enjoy the fight.
- 17:25This is why I say that the sports like football or hockey,
- 17:29basketball, they've, they've we in the West to harness our
- 17:33energy soccer so that professional sports takes the
- 17:38place of war because we like doing this kind of thing.
- 17:43Warfare persists because man is human, evolved from an animal,
- 17:46and all animals are bellicose. Among the early causes of war
- 17:51were hunger, women's scarcity, vanity, slaves.
- 17:59Revenge was the motive for war when one tribe believed that a
- 18:03neighboring tribe had caused the death of a fellow tribesman.
- 18:08That still goes on today. Mourning was continued until the
- 18:12head was brought home. The war for vengeance was in
- 18:17good standing right on down to comparatively modern times.
- 18:23Another reason for war recreation.
- 18:25War was looked upon as recreation by the young men of
- 18:29these early times. If no good and sufficient
- 18:31pretext for war arose when peace became oppressive, neighboring
- 18:36tribes were accustomed to go out in semi friendly combat, to
- 18:40engage in a foray as a holiday, or to enjoy a sham battle.
- 18:48Religion #7 The desire to make converts to the cult.
- 18:52The primitive religions all sanctioned war.
- 18:55Only in recent times has religion begun to frown upon
- 18:59war. The early priesthoods were
- 19:02unfortunately usually allied with the military power.
- 19:07One of the great peace moves of the ages has been the attempt to
- 19:10separate church and state. Always these olden tribes made
- 19:16war at the bidding of their gods, at the behest of their
- 19:20chiefs or medicine men. The Hebrews believed in such a
- 19:23God of battles and the narratives of their raid on the
- 19:27Midianites is a typical recital of the atrocities cruelty of the
- 19:33ancient tribal wars. This assault, with its slaughter
- 19:36of all the males and the later killings of all male children
- 19:40and all women were not virgins, would have done honor to the
- 19:45morays of a tribal Chieftain of 200,000 years ago.
- 19:50And all this was executed in the name of the Lord God of Israel.
- 19:55This is a narrative of the evolution of society, the
- 19:59natural outworking of the problems of the races, man
- 20:02working out his own destiny on earth.
- 20:05Such atrocities are not instigated by deity.
- 20:08Notwithstanding the tendency of man to place the responsibility
- 20:13on his gods, military mercy has been slow in coming to mankind.
- 20:20Even when a woman Deborah, ruled the Hebrews, the same wholesale
- 20:25cruelty persisted. Her general in his victory over
- 20:29the Gentiles. Cause quote all the hosts to
- 20:32fall upon the sword, and there was not one left in quote.
- 20:37Very early in the history of the race, poisoned weapons were
- 20:41used. All sorts of mutilations were
- 20:43practiced. Saul did not hesitate to require
- 20:47100 Philistine foreskins as the dowry.
- 20:50David would should pay for his daughter Michael.
- 20:54Early wars were fought between tribes as a whole, but in later
- 20:58times when 2 individuals and different tribes had a dispute,
- 21:01instead of both tribes fighting, the two disputants engaged in a
- 21:05duel. It also became a custom for two
- 21:09armies to stake all on the outcome of a contest between a
- 21:13representative chosen from each side, as in the instance of
- 21:17David and Goliath. The first refinements of war was
- 21:21the taking of prisoners. Next women were exempted from
- 21:25hostilities and then came the recognition of non combatants.
- 21:29Military casts and standing armies soon developed to keep
- 21:34pace with the increasing complexity of combat.
- 21:38Such warriors were early prohibited from associating with
- 21:41women, and women long ago ceased to fight, though they have
- 21:45always fed and nursed the soldiers and urged them on to
- 21:48battle. The practice of declaring war
- 21:52represented great progress. Such declarations of intention
- 21:56to fight betoken the arrival of a sense of fairness, and this
- 22:00was followed by the gradual development of the rulers of
- 22:04civilized warfare. Very early it became the custom
- 22:08not to fight near religious sites, and still later not to
- 22:12fight on certain holy days. Next came the general
- 22:15recognition of the right of asylum.
- 22:18Political fugitives received protection.
- 22:22Thus did warfare gradually evolve from the primitive
- 22:26manhunt to the somewhat more orderly systems of the latter
- 22:30day civilized nations. But only slowly does the social
- 22:35attitude of amity displace that of anonymity.
- 22:43So let us take a moment, take a collective breath, and we'll
- 22:47continue on with the next section of this engaging paper
- 22:50on the social value of war. All right, so now we want to
- 23:12read on to the section of this book where it talks about the
- 23:15social value of war. Now, in past ages of fierce war
- 23:19would institute social changes and facilitate the adoption of
- 23:23new ideas such as would not have occurred naturally in 10,000
- 23:27years. The terrible price paid for
- 23:30these certain war advantages was that society was temporarily
- 23:34thrown back into savagery. Civilized reason had to
- 23:38abdicate. War is strong medicine, very
- 23:41costly and most dangerous. While often curative of certain
- 23:45social disorders, it sometimes kills the patient, destroys the
- 23:50society. The constant necessity for
- 23:54National Defense creates many new and advanced social
- 23:58adjustments. Society today enjoys the benefit
- 24:01of a long list of useful innovations which were at first
- 24:05holy military, and even is indebted to war for the dance,
- 24:09one of the early forms of which was a military drill.
- 24:14War has had a social value to past civilizations because it #1
- 24:19impose discipline and enforced cooperation #2 put a premium on
- 24:24fortitude and courage #3 fostered and solidified
- 24:28nationalism, destroyed weak and unfit peoples, dissolve the
- 24:33illusion of primitive equality and selective, stratified
- 24:37society. And war has had certain
- 24:41evolutionary and selective value, but like slavery, it must
- 24:45sometime be abandoned as civilization slowly advances.
- 24:51Olden wars promoted travel and cultural intercourse.
- 24:55These ends are now better served by modern methods of transport
- 24:58and communication. Olden wars strengthen the
- 25:02nation's, but modern struggles disrupt civilized culture.
- 25:07Ancient warfare resulted in the decimation of inferior peoples.
- 25:12The net result of modern conflict is the selective
- 25:15destruction of the best human stocks.
- 25:19And I take that if you think about the number of people that
- 25:22died in World War One and World War Two, you begin to realize
- 25:27how many human beings were wiped off the face of the earth in
- 25:31such a short amount of time. Where?
- 25:32And even onward through the 20th century and communism in China,
- 25:38hundreds of millions of people, or at least 100 million people,
- 25:42have been killed off that that's sobering.
- 25:47Early wars promoted organization and efficiency, but these have
- 25:51now become the aims of modern industry.
- 25:54During past ages, war was a social ferment which pushed
- 25:58civilization forward. This result is now better
- 26:01attained by ambition and invention.
- 26:05Ancient warfare supported the concept of a God of battles, but
- 26:09modern man has been told that God is love.
- 26:13War has served many valuable purposes in the past.
- 26:16It has been an indispensable scaffolding in the building of
- 26:20civilization, but it is rapidly becoming culturally bankrupt,
- 26:25incapable of producing dividends of social gain in any way
- 26:29commensurate with the terrible losses attendant upon its
- 26:34invocation. At one time physicians believed
- 26:38in bloodletting as a cure for many diseases, but they have
- 26:42since discovered better remedies for most of these disorders, and
- 26:47so must the international bloodletting of war certainly
- 26:51give place to the discovery of better methods for curing the
- 26:55ills of nations. The nations of Urantia have
- 26:59already entered upon the gigantic struggle between
- 27:02nationalistic militarism and industrialism, and in many ways
- 27:07this conflict is analogous to the age long struggle between
- 27:11the herder hunter and the farmer.
- 27:15But if industrialism is to triumph over militarism, it must
- 27:19avoid the dangers which beset it.
- 27:22The perils of budding industry on Urantia are #1 The strong
- 27:26drift towards materialism. Spiritual blindness #2 The
- 27:31worship of wealth, power, value distortion 3 The vices of
- 27:36luxury. Cultural immaturity #4 The
- 27:40increasing dangers of indolence. Service insensitivity #5 The
- 27:46growth of undesirable racial softness.
- 27:49Biological deterioration, and number six, the threat of
- 27:53standardized industrial slavery. Personality stagnation, labor is
- 27:59ennobling, but drudgery is be numbing.
- 28:02Now I'll I'll just put this out there that those six points very
- 28:06much reflect many of the problems and the social ills
- 28:10that we have. I interviewed A historian not
- 28:13long ago on another program, a gentleman by the name of Anton
- 28:19Chaikin. Chaikin, That's right.
- 28:22And he has done extensive reporting on the history of war.
- 28:26And he claims that today's war are driven by industrialists,
- 28:33bankers, people who have a vested interest and they don't
- 28:36really give a damn about moral or human rights.
- 28:40They're in it for, they're in it to win it.
- 28:42And so and they've become more secular in their outlook and
- 28:46they tend to think along globalist lines, like we can
- 28:49control humanity under our terms.
- 28:51And so look at the the perils of budding industry.
- 28:55Budding industry is what we have now.
- 28:57We have corporatocracies, we have mega companies that that
- 29:02have such an influence on our day-to-day life.
- 29:05And the perils of these kinds of organizations are in fact, the
- 29:10strong drift towards materialism, spiritual
- 29:13blindness, the worship of wealth, power and value
- 29:17distortion. These billion dollar companies
- 29:20America made, produced, I read 100 No 1000 new millionaires in
- 29:26the year 2025. All right.
- 29:29Not that there's anything wrong with being a millionaire, mind
- 29:32you, but the but it tends to, I mean, when you want to talk
- 29:35about the worship of wealth, power, and then of course, the
- 29:39vices of luxury and cultural immaturity.
- 29:43So these are just telltale signs of what's driving war today is
- 29:48not the same as what drove it in the past.
- 29:50All right, let me continue on. Militarism is autocratic and
- 29:55cruel savage. It promotes social organization
- 29:58among the conquerors but disintegrates the vanquished.
- 30:01Industrialism is more civilized, and it should be carried on so
- 30:05as to promote initiative and to encourage individualism.
- 30:10Society in every way should should foster originality.
- 30:16Do not make the mistake of glorifying war.
- 30:19Rather discern it for what it is done for society, so that you
- 30:22may the more accurately visualize what its substitutes
- 30:26must provide in order to continue the advancement of
- 30:29civilization. And if such adequate substitutes
- 30:32are not provided, then you may be sure that war will long
- 30:37continue. Man will never accept peace as a
- 30:41normal mode of living until he has been thoroughly and
- 30:45repeatedly convinced that peace is best for his material
- 30:49welfare, and until society has wisely provided peaceful
- 30:54substitutes for the gratification of that inherent
- 30:57tendency. Periodically to let loose a
- 31:00collective Dr. designed to liberate those ever accumulating
- 31:04emotions and energies belonging to the self preservation
- 31:09reactions of the human species. But even in passing, war should
- 31:15be honored as the school of experience which compelled a
- 31:19race of arrogant individualists to submit themselves to highly
- 31:23concentrated authority. A chief executive old fashioned
- 31:28war did select the innately great men for leadership, but
- 31:33modern war no longer does this. To discover leaders, society
- 31:39must now turn to the conquests of peace, industry, science and
- 31:45social achievement. That concludes that Section 2 of
- 31:50Paper 70 and those two chapters, I think are much needed in
- 31:55contemplation these days. There's a lot to be learned for
- 31:58the revelators on this one, and I would remind you that the
- 32:02author of this particular paper is none other than a Melchizedek
- 32:09of Nebadon and Melchizedeks and the family of things should be
- 32:13considered older brothers, just like Melchizedek taught Abraham
- 32:18monotheism during the times of of his reign.
- 32:22And Abraham founded, went on and founded the Hebrew religion in
- 32:28which Moses exemplified and carried down to the modern day.
- 32:32So the same nature of being that instructed Abraham and spawned
- 32:37the many great religious leaders of of the subsequent ages is of
- 32:42the same order, the order of Melchizedek, who wrote this
- 32:45paper that I just presented to you.
- 32:49So our time has come. We'll have more episodes.
- 32:52I'll look forward to our next get together.
- 32:54In the meantime, be safe and be of good faith and be of good
- 32:57cheer. Thanks again for joining me and
