Topic:  LGBTQ - Gender Identity

  

Anyas: Hello Monjoronson.   The topic today is LGBTQ.  I have many questions about these gender identities which are becoming so prevalent in our world today and are quite confusing.  So, I would like to have some guidance from on high about how to view it from a spiritual standpoint.

 

Monjoronson: Greetings! I would be most happy to provide guidance on this subject for you. In your world, this is indeed a highly political topic.  It is sensitive to many individuals and often results in opinionated reactions from humans.  And so, it is a good one for us to begin to discuss and to identify its spiritual implications.   

 

Let me make a statement regarding our spiritual stand on gender identities.  It is a universal practice that at times you may be given a material body to house you as a spiritual being.  We consider your spiritual being as sacred and while it is housed in a material vehicle, we consider that vehicle sacred to you as well since you are tethered to it for the duration of your stay on this planet.  Because of this, we support the need for individuals to have a choice as to how to acknowledge, react to and treat their material bodies. 

 

In the evolutionary process, there are many grey areas when we talk about gender identity. Just as you can be a human with brown or blonde hair.  Just as you can be a human with right- brain dominance or left-brain dominance in your behavior, you can have differences in your gender identity. 

 

You may think that there are only two basic genders in your world, male and female and yet there are millions of individuals who have developed variations in their genetic makeup to these two genders. Because of this, there will be different variations in how they react to their gender identity.  It is an evolutionary fact that there will be this variation.  And it is also guaranteed that as a result, humans within themselves will have their own unique response to this.

 

From a spiritual standpoint, you know that we are here for the benefit of anyone and everyone in this world.  We want you to feel that you have a place here and that you feel comfortable within your own sense of identity.   And so, we will support the following views.  Spiritually speaking, we support you choosing the gender identity you are most comfortable with and the variation in your behavior that this results in as well.  We support your desire to make these decisions yourself as to what to do and how to react to your material vehicle that we consider sacred not only to God but to you as well.   At the same time, we encourage you to do this in ways that are spiritually mature and morally responsible.

 

Now, as I prepared to come to your world, I spent literally hundreds of years observing your populations on earth.  In doing that, decisions were made as to what I would need in understanding how best to move your progress forward and to whom I would need on my staff.

And because there is so much genetic and cultural variation in your populations, gender identity being one of them, we decided we would need a varied representation of those who would follow me as staff members and also manifest on this planet. We did this so that we could better meet the needs of all who we were to represent.  

 

So, I will tell you now that I have members on my staff who have varied gender identities and who can relate to those not following what many consider the normal gender patterns. This will occur as long as there are those with variation in gender identities living on your planet which we anticipate as an ongoing phenomenon. And they will need your acceptance.  

 

It is important that you begin in this material life to accept those who are genetically and culturally different from you.  It is best that you learn these lessons now because when you travel to the mansion worlds, you will meet with individuals from other planets that look and act very different than you do.  And they may even have accepted and practiced very different gender related habits and behaviors on their planet of nativity than you have here on Urantia.

 

It is time for you as members of the same species of human beings to eliminate these feelings and acts of discrimination against your brothers and sisters who have different genetic and cultural predispositions than you.  

 

This statement may come as a shock to those of you who have been raised with strict and exclusive guidelines toward gender identity within your religions and your societies.  We understand that this may at first feel uncomfortable for you.  But if you are to follow the true will of the Universal Father and the true teachings of Christ Michael as he lived his life as Jesus of Nazareth, you must expand your love for your fellow humankind to include all. You must understand that in the eyes of God, there is no ‘one’ chosen group but that you are all chosen.  You must widen your view to become more inclusive and less exclusive of what is considered acceptable behavior.  

 

I hope that by defining these important aspects of spirituality related to gender identity that it will clear up some of the gender related questions that you see on your planet.  In future transmissions we hope to expand your spiritual awareness and understanding by outlining guidelines that will assist you in developing a healthy belief system. Hopefully it will help you make responsible moral decisions regarding the grey areas you face in your life on this planet. We are coming to help you do this in a way that is less harmful to you and to others.  Thank you.
