Why had all the topics that I had placed in my own column been deleted?  And about 100 of my postings have been completely wiped away from this forum.  Why could someone not have offered me any kind of a warning?  I put a lot of hard work into it.  And Ron is on the verge of wiping away and deleting all my work on mytml.org as well.  It is virtually all gone.

What is it that makes Michael of Nebadon, our local Creator, as He revealed Himself in the Person of Jesus of Nazareth, so irresistably attractive to all beings endowed with good will?

The answer lies in what UB p.1785; 161:2 relates of Him, which is, I would dare say, one of the most delightful and profoundly moving passages found in the Urantia Book.

Both the Bible and the UB unmistakably affirm that Jesus Christ, true God and true man, was endowed with such a perfect BALANCE of character/temperament/personality, that He readily became all things to all men. 

Jesus Christ Michael openly displayed perfect BALANCE:  He was--

--equally introverted and extraverted
--equally sensate and intuitive
--equally thinking and feeling
--equally judgmental and perceptive
--equally sanguine and melancholic
--equally choleric and phlegmatic
--equally the Lamb of God and the Lion of Judah
--equally as simple as a dove and as clever as a serpent

Jesus Christ Michael was indeed the perfect image of the Father--He who sees Him sees the Father.  For He proceeded from Paradise, and has spent the eternal ages on Paradise before founding and establishing His and our local universe of Nebadon.  He knew from the eternal ages the delight of the perfection of balance, and in Him, the delight of Paradise is revealed to us.  For it is precisely the perfect BALANCE of spirit and soul which largely constitutes the DELIGHT of Paradise.

It is one of the principal goals of our ascension career to enamor ourselves and desire this holy BALANCE that we behold in our Creator Son.  "Be ye perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect."

To attain this holy BALANCE of character is as accessible to us as an act of the will.  Indeed, He who has virtually attained this sacred BALANCE In a way ALREADY dwells on Paradise, and in a way ALREADY has Paradise dwelling within him.

My brethren of the forum,
Will you join me in ardently loving the perfectly balanced character of our Christ Michael?  Let us earnestly desire it for ourselves, and our God will do the rest.  "Ask, and ye shall receive."  Remember:  If what we desire is also what the Father wills, ACCOMPLISHED FACT ensues.

Let us know and understand that this holy aspiration is and must be the ESSENCE of this and any Magisterial Mission.

My brethren, do you LOVE the perfection of Jesus?  Let us in FAITH attain by desiring and asking; and we will bring this sad world readily unto Light and Life through the empowerment of the Father Within, the Spirit of Truth, and the Holy Spirit.

Namaste
To all my forum brethren
