Ophelius - Caring for The elderly - Spiritual Lonliness - Jun 05, 2009 & Dec 05, 2010 - Progress Group, AU

Receiver’s note: On Sunday morning I had a long silence waiting for my weekly message.  Then finally, this came through re: Communicate with the Elderly.

There are many subscribers on the 11:11 list that are caring for elderly parents.  Please re-issue the message given previously, ‘Caring for the Elderly.’  It is very important that these persons, so close to the transition to eternity, know that they are the faith sons and daughters of the Most High, and are not passing into death, but rather into life eternal.  It is equally important to the care givers to know and to communicate this message that they may release their fear and know that their loved ones will be taken care of with great love, mercy, and compassion.  The guardian seraphim are on hand waiting to assist you in this most important communication.

God speed,
The Circle of Seven.

Subject: “Caring for the Elderly.”

Ophelius: “Today’s lesson is on caring for the elderly.  It is the duty of all faith sons and daughters as believers in the Kingdom to minister to the elderly, and to prepare them for afterlife on the mansion worlds.  Those who know these truths must communicate to these frail and fearful souls who are near the doorstep of eternity, and who may have no idea of what will await them upon their resurrection.  Too often do we avoid the subject of death and what lies ahead, because we, ourselves, have been so ill prepared by the orthodoxy of religion on this planet.  If these patriarchs of humanity had even the vaguest – the most remote -- idea of the process and the conditions of afterlife, it would make a tremendous difference in  their transition by the elimination of much confusion and fear.  Having a little knowledge of the grand adventure would make death something to look forward to, rather than some great unknown to dread.

“This is not an easy thing to talk about with elderly folks who are very set in their ways, and especially when you yourself have no firsthand knowledge of mansion world life and the process of crossing over.  You can however, use the knowledge and descriptions given in your Urantia Book to seed the minds of these souls -- to tell them of the loved ones that will be waiting to greet them in the resurrection halls of Mansonia -- of the great peace and beauty of the realms of light and the glorified bodies that they will have that are free from all infirmity.  Tell them of the great opportunities that await them, the learning of anything they desire, and the chance to find God and to become perfect as He is perfect.

“Tell them to unload the burdens of guilt, regret, and the trespasses of others, for the past can not be undone.  Tell them to look boldly into the future and imagine the possibilities, the glory, and the love that awaits them.  Yes, they will listen to you, for they crave to hear these words, even if they outwardly evade such discussions.  They will want to know and to hear the good news.  Don’t wait until they are on their deathbed to tell them these things, tell them today, so they may think and distill these things into a comforting assurance of things to come.

“The telling of the Good News and the glories of the afterlife will help these souls progress despite the apparent crystallization of their beliefs.  Truth has a way of cutting through the density of the most veiled fears and taking root in the human heart where it will blossom and grow into new paradigms of faith, hope, courage, and love.

“Go boldly to the harvest my beloved,

Transcript #2 of 2

Michigan, US of A, December 5, 2010.
Teacher Ophelius.
Subject: “Spiritual Loneliness.”

Received by Chris.

Teacher Ophelius: “Today’s message is about spiritual loneliness and isolation.  What do I mean by this?  Many of you who have embraced the power of the Spirit of Truth suffer silently because you have become aware of the higher knowledge of spirit values and realities that transcend the human institutions of religion and the accepted paradigms of society.  Once the Spirit of Truth sets you free, you are free indeed, and therefore you are no longer the bond servant of the dead and static truths of religion, and neither do you conform to the influence of societal programming.  For many, this can be a very lonely place.

“By revelation and personal experience have you evolved into a new creature with a new awareness.  Like a caterpillar who has changed into a butterfly, you no longer crawl slowly on the ground, but you soar high into the air, far above your brothers and sisters who remain on the ground satisfied with the safety and security of dead truths.  The sky is enormous, spacious, and empty as you flitter about in your new form, and you sometimes feel nostalgic for the days when you were safe in your cocoon.  Use your new senses now to seek out the beauty and the sweet nectar of the flowers of the field, and there will you find others like yourself, who have embraced their transformation and have learned where to find the sweetest flowers.

“You are no longer just a citizen of the earth, a race, or nation, but a cosmic citizen of the universe who is discovering, through faith, that there is a much larger reality to life that transcends the material world and the death of the physical body.  You have been born again into the family of God, and you have only just begun a journey of endless discovery, astonishing beauty, and sublime wonder in the experiences of eternal life.  Even while you live in the flesh are you a part of this larger, neigh infinite family of progressing spirits -- for you are one with us, who are seeking perfection, to find God and to become like Him.

“Though your physical eyes only perceive a small spectrum of reality, you can now use your spiritual eyes to discern the truth, beauty, and goodness of this new reality that is not void of life, but teams with others personalities who have shed their cocoons and emerged into the beautiful forms that God has intended for them -- the faith sons and daughters of the Most High.  You are not alone my friends, for there are more butterflies than there are caterpillars in the Kingdom of Heaven.

“Peace to you,
“The Circle of Seven.”
