An introduction to the Urantia Papers, the Fifth Epochal Revelation to our planet, Urantia!
The 196 Papers are written by differing authors and are not a religion; they are a Cosmology,
A study of the Universe– An overall view - From the subatomic to the isle of Paradise.
The Papers do not try and prove the existence of our Heavenly Father, they take that for granted.
It is the fifth epochal revelation from our Celestial benefactors
The Five Epochal Revelations to Mankind on Urantia
1. Our Planetary Prince – Caligastia, now known as the Devil, 500 thousand years ago for 300 thousand years until default.
2. Adam and Eve – from the year A.D. 1934, 37,848 years ago.
3. Machiventa Melchizedek – 1,973 years before the birth of Jesus
This emergency Son of our local universe, Nebadon, taught TRUST and FAITH in the omnipotent beneficence of God and that by FAITH men earned His favor.
4. Joshua ben Joseph – Jesus - of Nazareth – two thousand years ago
5. The Urantia Papers 70 years ago – Intended for the next two thousand years
‘But no revelation short of the attainment
of the Universal Father can ever be complete. All other celestial ministrations
are no more than partial, transient, and practically adapted to local
conditions in time and space. While such admissions as this may possibly
detract from the immediate force and authority of all revelations, the time has
arrived on Urantia when it is advisable to make such frank statements, even at
the risk of weakening the future influence and authority of this, the most
recent of the revelations of truth to the mortal races of Urantia.’ P 1008

4 THE LIFE AND TEACHINGS OF JESUS
The most important thing for man to know is how Jesus lived his life in the flesh.
Jesus’ favorite parable was the prodigal son, the one showing The Father’s love for his wayward son.
He taught that the secret of survival is wrapped up in the supreme human desire to be Godlike. He revealed and exemplified a religion of LOVING one’s enemies, doing GOOD unto others. He had security in The Father’s LOVE with His watchful over care, and the inevitable Joy and Satisfaction consequent upon sharing this Love in Sacred Service to The Family Of All Mankind, exemplifying how we can do the same.
“The Kingdom of God is within you” (see Luke 17:21) was the greatest pronouncement Jesus ever made, next to the declaration that his Father is our Spirit Father and a living and loving Parent.
This unobtrusive magnificent Parent is closer than breathing, because an actual fragment of Him exists within each one of us. We truly are His sons, destined to be like him by faith if we so will.
Will you?
Step up to the plate of your cosmic destiny and be the son of God that you are?
The Father’s will is nothing more or less than sharing one’s inner life with Him.
The call to the adventure of building a New and Transformed Human Society by means of the Spiritual Rebirth of Jesus’ Brotherhood of the Kingdom as revealed in the Urantia Papers should thrill all who believe in him, as men have not been stirred since the days when they walked about on earth as his companions in the flesh.
The hour is striking for a rediscovery of the True and Original Foundation of present day misguided Christianity -- The Real Life and Teachings of Jesus as revealed in the Fifth Major Epochal Revelation to this world, The Urantia Papers.
