Yet life is an ever-changing mosaic, and given that all of us are One with God, we do have the ability to create what filmmakers would call an “alternate ending” to any story. Apparently, this is what has happened here. A new decision appears to have been made at a Superconscious level (the level at which all souls function). I could have kept this latest dialogue private, but everything within me shouted, “Don’t you dare.” With this public distribution of a new word-for-word transcription of my most recent conversation with God, I feel that I am keeping a promise to God to do whatever I might be able to do to continue to place into the world the most important information I have ever been given— 7 information that, it has been demonstrated to me, can change in a positive way the daily experience of millions of people around the world. Notwithstanding the fact that all of the world’s major religions speak of divine revelation from God to humans as having occurred throughout history, I perfectly well understand it if some people feel that such a blessed event would presumably not occur in the life of an utterly imperfect and fault-ridden person such as myself. I have always said, however, that it is not me, in the singular, who has conversations with God, but all of us, in the plural, all the time. Most people are simply calling it something else. All of us have the ability to access the source of highest wisdom within us—which we are invited to consider to be God working in and through us. The dialogue itself puts this succinctly, in the voice of The Divine: “I talk to everyone all the time. The question is not, To whom do I talk? The question is, Who listens?” I therefore invite you to set aside whatever natural skepticism may arise regarding the source of the information found here, and to focus instead on whether or not what has been offered in this process has any value 8 in the living of your individual life and, more broadly, in the understanding of Life Itself. This text contains much information about life and death—and the time in between. It is filled with probably more metaphysical data than you may have been exposed to in one place in a very long time. At one point in the dialogue that follows you may find yourself saying, “Speculation or fact, this is utterly fascinating,” yet then fairly be asking, “but what good is knowing all of this? What does it have to do with my life, and the improving of it—much less the improving of the lives of all of us on Earth?” You will see here that I asked question after question in my own effort to render this dialogue meaningful and relevant. What I know is that today, with everything that’s going on in the world, people are yearning and searching for a message of hope, faith, healing, and change. I found that this latest conversation with God offered me that, and this is why I let myself publicly share it. The exchange here contains a few tough assessments of where we are today, yet these are offered not as judgments, but as flashlights, illuminating what we are now being invited to see and empowered to do. 9 I know it sounds trite, but a Better Tomorrow for us as individuals and for our civilization is possible. Very, very possible, if we will choose it. As the dialogue here makes clear, we are but One Decision away. I hope you’ll decide to make that decision after reading what follows. 10 Introduction I awoke from a sound sleep on August 2, 2016. It was The Urge that awakened me. I knew it well. I hadn’t felt it in nearly 10 years, but I knew it well. I had no idea what time it was, but I thought to myself, “If it’s 4:23, will I need more of a sign than that?” I glanced at the clock on my bedside table. 4:13 a.m. Of course. Just enough time to pull myself out of bed for my 4:23 “appointment.” The first dialogue I ever had with God began at 4:23 in the morning. And every morning for weeks I would be awakened between 4:15 and 4:30 by a deep inward urge: Get back to the dialogue. This pattern continued for months (and subsequently, for years). I wondered if there was any significance to the timing of it, but ultimately released any need to know. When the first conversations with God material, scribbled on yellow legal pads, actually became a 11 published book (I was told in the dialogue that it would, so I sent it to a publisher on a dare), I thought that maybe something important had taken place here. And when over a million people obtained the book, and I saw it being translated into 37 languages, I was shocked into certainty about that. Then it came to pass that requests for me to speak outside the U.S. began arriving, and I had to find my birth certificate in order to apply for a passport. It was nowhere to be found among my personal papers, so I applied to the records department of the government where I was born, paying the fee and asking to be sent an official copy. I was stunned when I opened the envelope and examined the document. TIME OF BIRTH: 4:23 A.M. Of course. The fact that this experience of Divine connection always seemed to be initiated near the time every day that I came into this world somehow seemed meaningful to me. At the very least, I could not ignore the perfect symmetry of it. Through the years, then, whenever I found myself 12 suddenly wide awake between 4:15 and 4:30 in the morning, eyes staring at the ceiling, a certain energy coursing through my body, I knew what was going on. I got up immediately, raced to my laptop, and opened myself to whatever wanted to come through. And so it was on this day, August 2, 2016. I’ve just thrown back the covers and pulled myself out of bed. Now here I am at the keyboard. The only thing is, I didn’t think I’d be doing this again. Let me explain. All of us are having what I have come to call conversations with God all the time. This was made clear to me on page five of the over 3,000 pages of the published CWG dialogues. So my experience was not unique, not uncommon. What was perhaps a bit unusual was that I made a written record of my innermost encounters, and then sent it to a publisher—who in turn actually printed it and placed it in bookstores. I have come to understand and to experience that I (and all of us) have a deep and personal connection with God all the time, and that we may have an actual communication with The Divine, asking for guidance, help, insight, and assistance, whenever we wish.

  • On the Genealogy of Morals by Friedrich Nietzsche
    Friedrich Nietzsche - On the Genealogy of Morals Prologue 1 We don't know ourselves, we knowledgeable people—we are personally ignorant about ourselves. And there's good reason for that. We've never tried to find out who we are. How could it ever happen that one day we'd discover our own selves? With justice it's been said that "Where your treasure is, there shall your heart be also." Our treasure lies where the beehives of our knowledge stand. We are always busy with our knowledge, as if we were born winged creatures—collectors of intellectual honey. In our hearts we are basically concerned with only one thing, to "bring something home." As far as the rest of life is concerned, what people call "experience"—which of us is serious enough for that? Who has enough time? In these matters, I fear, we've been "missing the point." Our hearts have not even been engaged—nor, for that matter, have our ears! We've been much more like someone divinely distracted and self-absorbed into whose ear the clock has just pealed the twelve strokes of noon with all its force and who all at once wakes up and asks himself "What exactly did that clock strike?"—so we rub ourselves behind the ears afterwards and ask, totally surprised and embarrassed "What have we really just experienced? And more: "Who are we really?" Then, as I've mentioned, we count—after the fact—all the twelve trembling strokes of the clock of our experience, our lives, our being—alas! in the process we keep losing the count.

Humanistic and transpersonal psychologies were important forces in the emergence of the social phenomenon of the New Age. New Age transpersonalism leans toward a restrictive non-relational spirituality because of its historical affirmation of individualism and transcendence.

The First Society entertained angels at their annual miniconference Sunday, April 20, 1997. Northwestern University's elegant Harris Hall, Evanston, IL, was the site of a gathering of an unknown number of seraphim and of nearly 30 human Urantia Book students. Readers from several Chicago area study groups and from downstate Illinois and Wisconsin attended. The angels hailed from Salvington and beyond. Theologians no longer debate how many angels can dance on the head of a pin; for nearly 200 years, since the Enlightenment, they haven't debated about angels at all. With a nod to New Age religions, and acknowledgments to authors Billy Graham, Mortimer Adler, and recent researchers for reviving interest in angels, conference leaders reviewed the history of belief in angels throughout ancient and modern times. The Zoroastrians, Mesopotamians, Greeks and Vikings all had traditions of angels. Muhammad, Joseph Smith (of Mormon fame) and Swedenborg claimed angelic contacts. Martin Luther, John Calvin, Mary Baker Eddy (Christian Science), and all modern popes paid tribute to seraphic ministry.
