Thou Salvington Fellows

Thou Fellows of Salvington University...

When there exists this living connection between divinity and humanity, if humanity should thoughtlessly and ignorantly pray for selfish ease and vainglorious accomplishments, there could be only one divine answer: more and increased bearing of the fruits of the spirit on the stems of the living branches. 

Doth ye ponder what I say .. reflect upon my words .. wonder in contemplation and consideration? 

When the branch of the vine is alive, there can be only one answer to all its petitions: increased grape bearing. 

In fact I sayeth to the humble ones of the race, the branch exists only for, and can do nothing except, fruit bearing, yielding grapes. So does the true believer exist only for the purpose of bearing the fruits of the spirit: to love humankind as God loves .. that ye shall  love one another, even as I have loved you each .. desiring the highest and the best for every unique individual.

And when the Father’s hand of discipline is laid upon the vine, it is done in love .. in merciful remonstration .. in order that the branches may bear much fruit. 

And a wise husbandman cuts away only the dead and fruitless branches... 

I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. I am the vine, and you are the branches. And the Father requires of me only that you shall bear much fruit. 

The vine is pruned only to increase the fruitfulness of its branches... 

Every branch coming out of me which bears no fruit, the Father will take away. 

Every branch which bears fruit, the Father will cleanse that it may bear more fruit. 

Already are you clean through the word I have spoken, but you must continue to be clean by your perseverance and determination to achieve growth-producing soul maturity and the maximizing fruit of thine lifetimes. 

You must abide in me, and I in you; the branch will die if it is separated from the vine. As the branch cannot bear fruit except it abides in the vine, so neither can you yield the fruits of loving service except you abide in me. 

Remember: I am the real vine, and you are the living branches. He who lives in me, and I in him, will bear much fruit of the spirit and experience the supreme joy of yielding this spiritual harvest. If you will maintain this living spiritual connection with me, you will bear abundant fruit. If you abide in me and my words live in you, you will be able to commune freely with me, and then can my living spirit so infuse you that you may ask whatsoever my spirit wills and do all this with the assurance that the Father will grant us our petition. 

Herein is the Father glorified: that the vine has many living branches, and that every branch bears much fruit. And when the world sees these fruit-bearing branches—my friends who love one another, even as I have loved them—all men and women will know that you are truly my disciples.

For verily do I encourage your ascent unto Life .. as the Father loves me, so have I loved you. 

Live in my love even as I live in the Father’s love. If you do as I have taught you, you shall abide in my love even as I have kept the Father’s word and evermore abide in his love.

The Salvington Fellowship of Light and Life

At Salvington, we invite you to view your university and college experience as a time to heal all divisions and disempowerment, become blessed by your enhancement of receptivity,  prosper your life in ways that may surprise you, become more greatly educated and explore our educational fellowship with the divine circuits, enlighten yourself upon the pathways of light and life everlasting, illuminate your mind and heart and even your physical body into the fuller octaves, accelerate your curiosity and exercise your relationship with the Infinite Divine Presence, and discover new ways filled with purpose and right desire in opening to the avenues of higher interest and more godly abilities.

We provide students with an immersive, collaborative, and inspiring collegial environment where they can develop a broadly informed understanding on the laws of life while heightening their sensitivities for those things of the spirit, building a highly disciplined intellect that will help them in completing their evolutionary journey and awakening upon the higher avenues wherein the universe career can blossom and emerge well.    

Our students gradually develop with the values and knowledge they need to pursue a universe career of enlightening expression and emerging gifts bringing prosperity and wellness, wholeness and healing. Meaningful service work emerges in the individual who is wholeheartedly willing to daily deliver themselves to the altar of eternity. Here, you will find your true passion in life-long purpose and greater inner poise regarding the circumstances of your life, and you will be learning the higher ways of evolutionary ascendancy which carry the individual personality beyond the local byways of planetary experience.

You are groomed, at Salvington, for the greater life more prosperous and abundantly benevolent in all ways, and our precepts and divine principles of the Universe Father Son and Universe Spirit Mother will take you into uncharted lands of adventure and fulfillment leading you into successful and purposeful lives.

The Nebadon educational system is jointly administered by the Trinity Teacher Sons and the Melchizedek teaching corps, but much of the work designed to effect its maintenance and upbuilding is carried on by the Celestial Overseers. These beings are a recruited corps embracing all types of individuals connected with the scheme of educating and training the ascending mortals. There are upward of three million of them in Nebadon, and they are all volunteers who have qualified by experience to serve as educational advisers to the entire realm. From their headquarters on the Salvington worlds of the Melchizedeks, these overseers range the local universe as inspectors of the Nebadon school technique designed to effect the mind training and the spirit education of the ascending creatures.

This training of mind and education of spirit is carried on from the worlds of human origin up through the system mansion worlds and the other spheres of progress associated with Jerusem, on the seventy socializing realms attached to Edentia, and on the four hundred and ninety spheres of spirit progress encircling Salvington. On the universe headquarters itself are numerous Melchizedek schools, the colleges of the Universe Sons, the seraphic universities, and the schools of the Teacher Sons and the Union of Days. Every possible provision is made to qualify the various personalities of the universe for advancing service and improving function. The entire universe is one vast school.

The methods employed in many of the higher schools are beyond the human concept of the art of teaching truth, but this is the keynote of the whole educational system: character acquired by enlightened experience. The teachers provide the enlightenment; the universe station and the ascender's status afford the opportunity for experience; the wise utilization of these two augments character.

Fundamentally, the Nebadon educational system provides for your assignment to a task and then affords you opportunity to receive instruction as to the ideal and divine method of best performing that task. You are given a definite task to perform, and at the same time you are provided with teachers who are qualified to instruct you in the best method of executing your assignment. The divine plan of education provides for the intimate association of work and instruction. We teach you how best to execute the things we command you to do.

The purpose of all this training and experience is to prepare you for admission to the higher and more spiritual training spheres of the superuniverse. Progress within a given realm is individual, but transition from one phase to another is usually by classes.

The progression of eternity does not consist solely in spiritual development. Intellectual acquisition is also a part of universal education. The experience of the mind is broadened equally with the expansion of the spiritual horizon. Mind and spirit are afforded like opportunities for training and advancement. But in all this superb training of mind and spirit you are forever free from the handicaps of mortal flesh. No longer must you constantly referee the conflicting contentions of your divergent spiritual and material natures. At last you are qualified to enjoy the unified urge of a glorified mind long since divested of primitive animalistic trends towards things material.

Before leaving the universe of Nebadon, most Urantia mortals will be afforded opportunity to serve for a longer or shorter time as members of the Nebadon corps of Celestial Overseers.
