Providence

"Do not think that God will just intervene and fix everything for humanity, for this does not happen in life."

"You may ... say, 'Why worry? Why bother? ... God will take care of everything.' God has sent you to take care of everything. Do not sit back and think that the Divine will come and save you. You have come to help save the world."

Divine Intervention

"God does not have to manage your life. God does not have to manage the affairs of this world. And God does not control the weather and the sequence of events, for that is all in motion. That was set in motion at the beginning of time, and it is still in motion and will be in motion for as long as you can imagine.

"God must enter a world where God is not welcome, in ways that do not generate fear and panic amongst those who believe the world is their only reality. It is for this reason that the Will of God manifests itself in subtle and ingenious ways in this world."

"Nobody wants a savior until they are desperate. Nobody wants freedom until they feel they are truly imprisoned. If God answered all your prayers, you would have to allow God to take over your life. God will not do that."

God is not the author of suffering

"People think God is the author of everything that happens in the world. That cannot be a loving God. That cannot be a wise God. That cannot be a compassionate God. With children dying of cancer and nations of people starving to death and civil war and strife arising with increasing frequency, do you make God the author of these things? You certainly could not trust such a God. You certainly could not love such a God. You certainly could not follow such a God."

In the Form of Guidance

"It [the New Message from God] will reveal the meaning of life in the universe. It will reveal what is coming over the horizon of your life and of the whole world. It will reveal the true nature of human spirituality at a higher level, at a level called Knowledge. It will reveal what humanity must learn to create real cooperation here on Earth and to end its ceaseless conflicts and its terrible plundering of the world. For this is the only world you will have that can sustain you. The universe around you will not be yours to conquer or to explore beyond this solar system. There are great dangers there, of which humanity knows nothing at all. It is still looking through primitive eyes, the eyes of ignorance and hopeful expectation. It does not know what it is dealing with in a Greater Community of life in the universe. God must now provide this, at least sufficiently, so humanity can prepare and act with wisdom and concern for the future, rather than merely acting out of expediency for the moment."It [the New Message from God] will change your understanding of religion and bring great clarity here. It will establish the unity of all religions and how they have built upon one another to provide the true moral and ethical foundation for human conduct and understanding."

"It [the New Message from God] will change your understanding of religion and bring great clarity here.

It [the New Message from God] will change your understanding of religion and bring great clarity here. It will establish the unity of all religions and how they have built upon one another to provide the true moral and ethical foundation for human conduct and understanding."

"You may pray urgently to God for salvation, for guidance, for redemption and for protection, but God has already given you a perfect guiding intelligence. Whether you are a part of a religion or not, whether you practice a faith tradition or not, wherever you live, whatever your culture, whatever your financial position, you have the great endowment living within you."

"God is like the air you breathe. God is everywhere. God is communicating with you through Knowledge, and God is giving you signs and messages. God is speaking to you through Knowledge. God is telling you which way to go, what to do and what not to do, where to give yourself, where not to give yourself, what will lead to a good outcome and what will lead to calamity. This is Providence."

"The world contains a set of forces that are working on their own. God is here to teach you how to negotiate these forces and how to utilize them effectively. God is not pulling all the strings, determining everything that is happening to you today and everything that will happen tomorrow. The world is in motion, and all the myriad forces within its mental and physical environments are in motion. God is involved in present time in the world without controlling everything. Rarely is there direct intervention. When this happens, it happens because it is welcome, because it is needed and because it would further restore relationship to the person or persons receiving it. Beyond this, God lets everything happen."

"For God thinks of the future and not just the present, the well-being of people in times to come, not merely those who exist today. So the Revelation must answer questions that have not even been considered and must prepare humanity for the next great stage of its evolution."

Providence in a Declining World

"This world is prized by others for its natural wealth, for its abundance, for its diversity, for its natural resources. Already intervention is underway because humanity is destroying the wealth of the world as if you had no future, as if tomorrow were unimportant—devouring the world as quickly as possible, using its resources as quickly as possible, with no thought of tomorrow or what the future will bring or require. What can God do for such a race but provide the Revelation that is being provided now?"
