1.    When I managed to complete my article on “The Third Article of Faith,” I was encouraged to write more Urantia Book’s
articles.

It occurred to me that I can perhaps take the reader through
the adventure of eternity; from the time you “wake up” (after
physical death) on the first mansion world until you attain
Paradise, is embraced by God, and is mustered in the Corps of the
Finality. It’s a very long voyage through the universe; the time
involved is beyond human understanding. But what a grand
adventure this is; it is filled with delights, learning, and
challenges that cannot be described in human terms.

To condense all that in an article proved a daunting task.
But it was also a labor of love.

It is a long article; so be patient.

Why am I here and where do I go from here?

These two questions have preoccupied humankind since the
beginning of time. And yet, until 1955, when the Urantia Book
was published, humanity had only vague religious and
philosophical answers. I am not saying that the Book has brought
instant knowledge; most people are not ready for these
revelations. It will be a long time before obscurity is lifted,
and the light of truth allowed to shine on this forlorn planet.

    At the beginning only The Universal Father, The Eternal Son,
The Infinite Spirit, and The Central Universe existed.

“The Universal Father is the God of all creations, the First
Source and Center of all things and beings.”  [P21].

The Central Universe is also eternal. It consists of
Paradise and Havona.

“Paradise is the eternal center of the universe of universes
and the abiding place of the Universal Father, the Eternal Son,
the Infinite Spirit and their divine co-ordinates and
associates.”

“Paradise is a material sphere as well as a spiritual
abode.” [P118].

Havona consists of one billion spheres of sublime
perfection. “At the center of Havona is the stationary and
absolutely stabilized Isle of Paradise, surrounded by its twenty-
one satellites.” [P129].

There are three different ways used in the universe to
create.

Divine Creation

The Paradise Deity is capable of creating Perfect Beings
fully equipped for the duties they are meant to perform in the
universe.  These Personalities are not automatons, they are
endowed with free will, and add to their knowledge through
experience.  They have the potential to go astray, but none of
them (at least the ones described in the book) ever betrayed his
trust or failed to properly complete an assignment.  They are
completely reliable.  The technique used to create them is not
revealed to us.  My understanding is that it will never be fully
explained.

At the lower levels (e.g. the Seraphims) they can, and do,
undertake (like us) the ascending career.  They are capable of
reaching Paradise and becoming Finaliters.

One important difference with the Paradise creation is that
they can rebel, betray their trust, and create havoc.  It doesn’t
happen at the higher levels such as the Melchizedek Sons (at
least not on our universe), but it does happen at the lower
levels such as the System Rulers, the Planetary Princes, and the
Angels.

The most direct answer to this question is the desire of the
Father to share His love with an entire universe.  Once the
universe was created and Higher Beings brought forth to rule this
vast domain, He created humans, on countless planets, in His own
image (by providing them with a fragment of Himself, the Thought
Adjuster).

God can do everything Himself if He chooses.  In actual
fact, He has delegated most of His authority to His created
intelligences.  He has reserved for Himself only that which
cannot be done by other beings.  This passage from the book puts
it so touchingly.

When our life on our native planet terminates, we are ready
to start our work in the universe.  Ascending pilgrims from the
worlds of time and space are considered invaluable for two
reasons.

First, we start at the lowest level possible and add layer
upon layer of knowledge and experience.  By the time we reach the
heights, we are a superb and incredibly versatile creature.

I have previously said that ascending mortals are
invaluable on two counts.  I discussed the gradual knowledge and
experience that is added through the ages.  The second one is our
sheer number.

On the system of Satania we presently have 619 planets, “…
and more than two hundred additional planets are evolving
favorably toward becoming inhabited planets at some future time.”
[P182].

Evolutionary Worlds

Nebulae

Our planet is an evolutionary world. It (and an
extraordinary number of suns, planets and moons) starts its life
as a nebula. Some planets can eventually support life, but they
remain unstable for a long time (volcanic eruptions, earthquakes,
etc.).

Architectural Worlds

These are made-to-order worlds; they are built according to
plans and specification for some special purposes. An example
would be Salvington, the capital of Nebadon, and the 490 spheres
surrounding it. [P172].

The seven superuniverses are constituted approximately as
follows:

1.  The System.  This is the basic unit of the local and
indeed superuniverse; and it is ruled by a System Sovereign.  It
has the potential to included 1,000 inhabited worlds.  Any sphere
that cannot support life (such as a planet  too far or too near to its sun) is not included in this group.  On a young system only a comparatively small number of worlds may be inhabited.

Overview

“A local universe is the handiwork of a Creator Son of the
Paradise order of Michael.”  Figures regarding the number of
systems, constellations, etc. have been given in the preceding
section.

“Urantia belongs to a local universe whose sovereign is the
God-man of Nebadon, Jesus of Nazareth and Michael of Salvington.
And all of Michael’s plans for this local universe were fully
approved by the Paradise Trinity before he ever embarked upon the
supreme adventure of space.”

General Administration

In general, a system government looks after the welfare of
its planets, with emphasis on the physical status of living
beings with biological problems.

Constellation rulers are concerned with the social and
governmental conditions prevailing on the different systems and
planets.

The universe rulers are more occupied with the spiritual
status of the realms.

Satania consists of 57 spheres.  The capital Jerusem is
almost 100 times the size of Urantia.  Jerusem has 7 major
satellites referred to as the seven transition worlds, each of
which is about ten times as large as Urantia.  In turn, each of
the transition worlds has seven subsatellites, their size is just
about the size of Urantia.

The seven subsatellites of transition world number one are
of immediate interest to us; these seven so-called mansion worlds
will be our first homes as we start the adventure of space.

The Material Sons

The Adams and Eves reside on Jerusem. They occupy an
enormous area consisting of one thousand centers; each family of
material Sons and Daughters live on an estate of its own until
such time when they depart for service on the planets or begin
their Paradise-ascension career.

one (The Finaliter’s World) on Satania.  [P530].

The First Mansion World

On the mansion worlds, the resurrected mortal survivors
carry on with their lives exactly where they left of when they
died.  The only difference is that we now have a different body;
“… the tabernacle of flesh and blood has been left behind on
the world of nativity.”

The Second Mansion World

When your sojourn on the first world terminates, you will
enter the translation sleep and proceed to world number two.  A
newly developed and suitably adjusted morontia body is acquired
as you advance from one mansion world to another.  “You go to
sleep with the seraphic transport and awake with the new but
undeveloped body in the resurrection halls, much as you first
arrived on mansion world number one except that the Thought
Adjuster does not leave you during these transit sleeps between
the mansion worlds.”

The Third Mansion World

Here you will meet the Mansion World Teachers.  Though they
function on the seven mansion spheres, their group headquarters
is on mansonia number three.  These teachers are deserted but
glorified cherubim and sanobim.  There are billions upon billions
of these teachers in Satania.  They serve as teachers all the way
up from the mansion worlds to the last sphere of local universe
ascendant training.  They will be one of the last personalities
to bid you an affectionate adieu – at least for a few ages – when
farewell time draws near, when you leave your native universe and
prepare to depart for the shores of the minor sector of your
superuniverse.

The Fifth Mansion World

You experience one more time the adjustment sleep, followed
by the resurrection awakening, as you are transported by a seraph
to the fifth mansion world. (This applies every time you
progress from one world to the next). You are now on a world
which will provide you with a real foretaste of Jerusem life.
You’re also beginning to realize the high destiny of the loyal
evolutionary worlds since they normally progress to this stage
during their natural planetary development. You can also
appreciate why advanced mortals from these advanced planets are
exempt from passing through one or more, or even all, of the
mansion worlds. The culture of mansonia five corresponds in
general to that of the early era of light and life on a normal
planet.

teachers who will prepare you for your upcoming residence on
Jerusem.

“The Gods cannot – at least they do not – transform a
creature of gross animal nature into a perfected spirit by some
mysterious act of creative magic.”  Long have we believed on this
planet that physical death transforms the mortal mind into a
perfected spirit by some magical process!  “Such beliefs are but
ignorant superstitions and pleasing fables.”  The morontia estate
is therefore a necessary intermediate step to take us from the
animal stage to a glorified spirit.

The Reversion Directors

“Joyful mirth and the smile-equivalent are as universal as
music.”  There is a morontial and spiritual equivalent of our
human humor.  However, there is a difference between the two
types in that Urantia humor is considered by the higher beings as
“… exceedingly crude and most inartistic.”  But it serves its
purpose in allowing us to liberate emotional pressure, and
preventing us from taking ourselves too seriously.

The Mansion World Teachers

During our life on a trial world of space we have assigned
to us a personal (for an advanced mortal) or a group seraphim,
the guardian of destiny (what we call here on Earth a guardian
angel).  On a planet of time and space, seraphim are ably
assisted by cherubim and sanobim.  But when the mortal ward of a
seraphim is delivered from the fetters of the flesh and reach the
mansion worlds, she has no further need of the ministrations of
her former lieutenants, the cherubim and sanobim.  They are at
this stage deserted cherubim and sanobim.  But they do not remain
unemployed for long.  (Twiddling your thumbs on the higher
spheres is a non-starter!)

Morontia World Seraphim – Transition Ministers

While all orders of angels minister on the morontia worlds,
the transition ministers are to a large extent assigned to these
activities.

You should be aware that the morontia life of an ascending
mortal is initiated on its native planet at the conception of the
soul, at that moment when the creature mind of moral status is
indwelt by the Thought Adjuster.  “And from that moment on, the
mortal soul has potential capacity for supermortal function, even
for recognition on the higher levels of the morontia spheres of
the local universe.”  Accordingly, these ministers function on
Urantia, but only on the mansion worlds do we become aware of
them.

5.  Technicians.  These are the seraphim who help the

strange environment of the morontia spheres.  In adjusting to
every new morontia level, ascenders are greatly helped by the

On the constellation headquarters worlds living
embellishments are more generally utilized. Thus, if you’re a
lover of botanic artistry, you will love your sojourn on Edentia.

About half of Edentia is dedicated to the superb gardens of
the Most Highs. Since the capital of our constellation is about

The Edentia Training Worlds

The concept of team work is well understood on our planet.
A family works together as a team – or falls apart. Many sports
consist of teams competing against each others. On a soccer
team, each player has a well defined role; how well each player
fulfill his role can bring victory or defeat. At work people
work together as a team; possessing, or lacking, a team spirit
can further or hamper one’s career. Really, nothing worthwhile
happens unless a group of people get together and function in a
more or less harmonious way.

presence. Michael, when required, go to constellations, systems,

The Superuniverse

The name of our superuniverse is Orvonton, and the capital
is Uversa. The headquarters sphere is surrounded by the seven
higher university of advanced spiritual training for ascending
mortals. “Each of the seven clusters of wonder spheres consists
of seventy specialized worlds containing thousands upon thousands
of replete institutions and organizations devoted to universe
training and spirit culture wherein the pilgrims of time are re-
educated and re-examined preparatory to their long flight to
Havona.” (In other words, there are 490 spheres rotating around
Uversa).

Havona, the central universe, is not a time creation. It is
eternal, it has no beginning and no end. At the center of Havona
is the stationary and absolutely stabilized Isle of Paradise
surrounded by its twenty-one satellites.

“Owing to the enormous encircling masses of the dark gravity
bodies about the fringe of the central universe, the mass content
of this central location is far in excess of the total known mass
of all seven sectors of the grand universe.”

The central planetary family surrounding the Isle of
Paradise is called Havona; it is very distant from our local
universe of Nebadon. “It is of enormous dimensions and almost
unbelievable mass and consists of one billion spheres of
unimagined beauty and superb grandeur, but the true magnitude of
this vast creation is really beyond the understanding grasp of
the human mind.”

Life in Havona

The Revelator (a Perfector of Wisdom) had to fill an immense
gap to describe to the mortals of this planet what life in Havona
is like. Of necessity, his description is general in nature.
For this humble mortal, paraphrasing Him proved impossible. I am
therefore resorting to largely quoting some of his passages.

When you arrive on Havona, there is a definite task to be
achieved on each of the billion spheres.

Havona Natives

The Havona natives are directly created by the Paradise
Trinity, and their number is beyond the concept of our
circumscribed minds. However, no more are being created. The
inherent qualities of such divinely perfect beings is beyond the
understanding of Urantians. Only when we arrive on Havona and
greet them as spirit comrades can we truly appreciate these
glorious creatures.

The Graduate Guides

The Graduate Guides are exclusively devoted to the tasks of
guiding the mortal graduates from the superuniverses of time
through the Havona course of instruction and training which
serves to prepare the ascenders for admission to Paradise and the
Corps of the Finality.

The Revelator is authorized to talk about the nature of
their work; however it is so ultraspiritual, he despairs of being
able to convey to us the manifold activities of these beings.
Once our spiritual comprehension widens (beginning on the mansion
worlds) we will be able to comprehend the role of these guides.

There is a class of angels in the central universe called
the Secondary Supernaphim. These beings will minister to the
pilgrims of space and will play a central role during their
sojourn on Havona. There are seven types corresponding to the
seven circuits of Havona.

The Trinity Guides

On the fifth circle the spiritual graduates are referred to
as “candidates for the Deity adventure” since it is on this
circle, under the direction of the Trinity guides, that the
ascenders receive advanced instruction concerning the divine
Trinity in preparation for the attempt to achieve the personality
recognition of the Infinite Spirit.

“Most faithful and efficient are the Trinity guides; and
each pilgrim receives the undivided attention, and enjoys the
whole affection, of a secondary supernaphim belonging to this
order. Never would a pilgrim of time find the first approachable
person of the Paradise Trinity were it not for the help and
assistance of these guides and the hosts of other spiritual
beings engaged in instructing the ascenders respecting the nature
and technique of the forthcoming Deity adventure.”

The Son Finders

The fourth Havona circuit is sometimes called the “circuits
of the Sons.” From the worlds of this circuit, the pilgrims of
space go to Paradise to achieve an understanding contact with the
Eternal Son.

It is on these worlds that ascending souls will meet with
the descending pilgrims, the Michael Sons; both the pilgrims of
time and the pilgrims of eternity arrive at their first truly
mutual understanding of one another. “In many respects the
experiences of this circuit are the most intriguing of the entire
Havona sojourn.”

What follows is perhaps the most important part in the
entire Urantia Book. I therefore take a back seat and let the
Perfector of Wisdom who presented this paper do the talking.

The Father Guides

When a seeking soul attains the third circuit of Havona, he
is guided by the Father guides, the older, highly skilled, and
most experienced of the superaphic ministers. “On the worlds of
this circuit the Father guides maintain schools of wisdom and
colleges of technique wherein all the beings inhabiting the
central universe serve as teachers.”

The Counselors and Advisers

The superaphic counselors and advisers of the second circle
are the instructors of the ascendant souls regarding the career
of eternity. Responsibilities on Paradise are of a new and
higher order, and the sojourn on the second circuit affords ample
opportunity to receive the helpful counsel of these supernaphim.

Those who are unsuccessful in the first try of attaining the
Deity are advanced from the circle of failure to the second
circle before they are returned to superuniverse service. For
those ascendants, there will be another day and another chance.
And as we have been informed, no candidate ever failed on the
second attempt.

The Complements of Rest

Much of an evolving soul’s time on this, the last circuit,
is devoted to preparatory training related to the forthcoming
Paradise residence. A vast and diverse number of beings, the
majority unrevealed reside on the inner ring of the Havona
worlds. The complements of rest are thus provided with the
assistance they need to further the education of the pilgrims of
space, especially with regards to the problems of adjustment to
the personalities soon to be encountered on Paradise.

“Paradise is the eternal center of the universe of universes
and the abiding place of the Universal Father, the Eternal Son,
the Infinite Spirit, and their diverse co-ordinates and
associates.”

The spiritual beauty and the wonders of this magnificent
physical creation are utterly beyond mortal comprehension.

Upper Paradise

Upper Paradise is divided into three grand spheres of
activity: The Deity Presence, the Most Holy Sphere, and the Holy
Area. The Most Holy Sphere surrounds the presence of the
Deities, it is reserved for the functions of worship,
trinitization, and high spiritual attainment. “There are no
material structures nor purely intellectual creations in this
zone; they could not exist there. It is useless for me to
undertake to portray to the human mind the divine nature and the
beauteous grandeur of the Most Holy Sphere of Paradise. This
realm is wholly spiritual, and you are almost wholly material. A
purely spiritual reality is, to a purely material being,
apparently non-existent.”

Nether Paradise

“Concerning nether Paradise, we only know that which is
revealed; personalities do not sojourn there.”

“We are informed that all physical energy have their origin
on nether Paradise.”

Nether Paradise is made out of the following regions:
Directly underneath the location of the Trinity, in the central
portion of nether Paradise, is the unknown and unrevealed Zone of
Infinity. This zone is immediately surrounded by an unnamed
area. Finally, occupying the outer margins of the under surface
is a region having mainly to do with space potency and force
energy. [P122].

[Those of you who are familiar with the physical sciences
may be interested in the details provided from pages 122 to 126.
This information is almost incomprehensible to me.]

The Paradise Companions

The Paradise Companions are a mixed group recruited from the
ranks of the seraphim, seconaphim, supernaphim, and omniaphim.
They are summoned to Paradise to act as companions. They are not
of permanent status, once their work is completed, as a rule (but
not always) they go back and resume their former duties. They
serve for what we would consider an extraordinary length of time.

These selected angels are strictly companions to all classes
of beings who may chance to be alone on Paradise. Mostly they
act as companions to ascending mortals. Almost every other
beings (aside from fellow pilgrims), mortals will encounter on
Paradise, will have something definite to do with you or for you.
Paradise Companions on the other hand will commune with you as
personality associates.

“Between the Central Isle of Paradise and the innermost of
the Havona planetary circuits there are situated in space three
lesser circuits of special spheres. The innermost circuit
consists of the seven secret spheres of the Universal Father; the
second group is composed of the seven luminous worlds of the
Eternal Son; in the outermost are the seven immense spheres of
the Infinite Spirit, the executive headquarters worlds of the
Seven Master Spirits.”

These twenty-one worlds of the Father, the Son, and the
Spirit are spheres of unexcelled grandeur and unimagined glory.
[P143].

5. Solitarington

“This world is the ‘bosom of the Father and the Spirit,’ and
is the rendezvous of a magnificent host of unrevealed beings of
origin of the conjoint acts of the Universal Father and the
Infinite Spirit, beings who partake of the traits of the Father
in addition to their Spirit inheritance.”

Solitarington is also the home of many other personalities,
example the Solitary Messengers.

The Secrets of Solitarington. Besides certain secrets of
trinitization, this sphere holds the secrets of the personal
relation of the Infinite Spirit with certain of His higher
offsprings. [P146].

The Worlds of the Infinite Spirit

These spheres are inhabited by the offspring of the Infinite
Spirit, by the trinitized sons of glorified created
personalities, and by other types of unrevealed beings concerned
with the effective administration of the many enterprises of the
various realms of universe activities.

The Corps of Mortal Finaliters represents, at present, the
ultimate destination of the ascending Adjuster-fused mortals of
time.  But they are not the only ones.  The primary finaliter
corps is composed of the following six groups:

1. Havona Natives
2. Gravity Messengers
3. Glorified Mortals
4. Adopted Seraphim
5. Glorified Material Sons (The Adams and Eves)
6. Glorified Midway Creatures

These six groups of glorified personalities presently
minister to the universes of space and administer the worlds
settled in light and life.  Regarding their future career, the
speculation on Uversa is that they will play an important role in
the now organizing universes of outer space.

Glorified Mortals

Adjuster-fused mortals compose the bulk of the primary Corps
of the Finality. Together with the adopted and glorified
seraphim they usually constitute 990 (out of 1000) in each
finaliter company.

The final destination of these ascending pilgrims is the
subject of much speculation on Uversa. Some of their views
follow.

The Ultimate Adventure

The presumption (of future universes) presented by the two
Authors of this paper (Divine Counsellor and One Without Name and
Number) is further elaborated in these sublime and intriguing
passages:

“We venture the forecast of future and greater outer
universes of inhabited worlds, new spheres peopled with new
orders of exquisite and unique beings, a material universe
sublime in its ultimacy, a vast creation lacking in only one
important detail – the presence of actual finite experience in
the universal life of ascendant existence. Such a universe will
come into being under a tremendous experiential handicap: the
deprivation of participation in the evolution of the Almighty
Supreme. These outer universes will all enjoy the matchless
ministry and supernal overcontrol of the Supreme Being, but the
very fact of his active presence precludes their participation in
the actualization of the Supreme Deity.”

It was with great trepidation that I approached this
difficult subject. It was no easy task to explain the nature of
the Supreme Being, and still keep it simple and approachable to
you.

I gave the matter careful thought and have devised the
following methodology:

First, I am giving you in point form a general overview,
based on information from the Book, of this phase of divinity.

Second, I am quoting passages from the Book to elaborate
upon, and confirm, what I’ve said previously. Note that some
passages may be unrelated to the subject matter, they are here to
add additional meaning to what has been said in the course of
this long narrative. Finally, some quotations are simply
included for the beauty of the language! I hope you will find
them as touching as I did.

4) Humans gradually break the chains of imperfection in the
course of their long climb to Paradise. At the same time, God
gradually liberates Himself from the fetters of perfection. He
does this through the evolving Supreme Being. The Almighty
Supreme can be considered as a derived Deity or a Creator-
creature divinity. This liberation from perfection is not a
capricious act on the part of God, for the Supreme is the
synthetic cumulative total of all grand universe evolution. Put
in a simpler way, God thus gradually draws nearer to his
creation. Keep in mind that even when God the Supreme
actualizes, the Paradise Trinity will always exist as the
Absolute Deity. The Trinity is Absonite, they have no beginnings
or endings. The Supreme on the other hand may be considered as
Finite, He has a beginning but no ending.

11) When the actual sovereignty of the Supreme becomes a
fact, it is possible that He may be resident on Uversa, and rule
from there. The Ancients of Days will function as his
vicegerents. This, however, is conjecture on the part of the
Higher Beings.

12) As far away as this may seem now, there will come an end
to the growth of God the Supreme; his status will achieve
completion (in the energy-spirit sense).

Selected Passages

Tentative definitions for God the Supreme, God the Ultimate,
and God the Absolute follows:

” “God the Supreme - the actualizing or evolving God of time
and space. Personal Deity associatively realizing the time-space
experiential achievement of creature-Creator identity. The
Supreme Being is personally experiencing the achievement of Deity
unity as the evolving and experiential God of the evolutionary
creatures of time and space.”

“If all grand universes should ever relatively achieve the
full living of the will of God, then would the time-space
creations be settled in light and life, and then would the
Almighty, the deity potential of Supremacy, become factual in the
emergence of the divine personality of God the Supreme.”

“When an evolving mind becomes attuned to the circuits of
cosmic minds, when an evolving universe becomes stabilized after
the pattern of the central universe, when an advancing spirit
contacts the united ministry of the Master Spirits, when an
ascending mortal personality finally attunes to the divine
leading of the indwelling Adjuster, then has the actuality of the
Supreme become real by one more degree in the universes; then has
the divinity of Supremacy advanced one more step toward cosmic
realization.”

“The Supreme is the beauty of physical harmony, The truth of
intellectual meaning, and the goodness of spiritual value. He is
the sweetness of true success and the joy of everlasting
achievement. He is the oversoul of the grand universe, the
consciousness of the finite cosmos, the completion of finite
reality, and the personification of Creator-creature experience.
Throughout all future eternity God the Supreme will voice the
reality of volitional experience in the trinity relationships of
Deity.” [P1278].

“It is conjectured that at this far-distant time the spirit
person of the Supreme and attained power of the Almighty will
have achieved co-ordinate development, and that both, as unified
in and by the Supreme Mind, will factualize as the Supreme Being,
a completed actuality in the universes – an actuality which will
be observable by all creatures intelligences, reacted to by all
created energies, co-ordinated in all spiritual entities, and
experienced by all universe personalities.”

“This concept implies the actual sovereignty of the Supreme
in the grand universe. It is altogether likely that the present
Trinity administrators will continue as his vicegerents, but we
believe that the present demarcations between the seven
superuniverses will gradually disappear, and that the entire
grand universe will function as a perfected whole.” [P1292].

“God the Supreme is the personalization of all universe
experience, the focalization of all finite evolution, the
maximization of all creature reality, the consummation of cosmic
wisdom, the embodiment of the harmonious beauties of the galaxies
of time, the truth of cosmic mind meanings, and the goodness of
supreme spirit values. And God the Supreme will, in the eternal
future, synthesize these manifold finite diversities into one
experientially meaningful whole, even as they are now
existentially united on absolute levels in the Paradise Trinity.”

If I go far enough in time, I find a 12-year-old boy
standing on his balcony in Cairo. This little boy is me, and I
am looking up at the night sky.

What a glorious spectacle this was: The sky was lit by the
light of myriad of stars; a blanket of diamonds stretched across
the heavens; God’s poetry in light. And all this was long before
light and air pollution stole the night sky away.

At the time, this was more than a light-show for me. These
countless celestial bodies stirred deep emotions in me. Every
one of them could potentially be a world with people like us. (I
was unaware at the time that these were suns similar to our own
sun). I knew there was a Creator in charge of this immense
universe; I was also aware of the fact that there were rulers
called the Ancients of Days who acted on God’s behalf.

When I first read the Urantia Book, I became quite incensed
when I learned that I was born on an isolated planet. The news
went from bad to worse. First, our System Sovereign rebelled;
next, our Planetary Prince betrayed His trust; the downfall of
Adam and Eve followed; the seraphim could not properly minister
to us being themselves isolated; finally, the messages of first
Machiventa Melchizedek, and next Jesus got all confused over the
centuries. Poor me! Couldn’t I have been born on a normal
planet? And so it went during the years spent reading the Book.
Today, some 25 years later, I consider myself very lucky to have
been born on this planet. Why the change of heart?

At this point of the narrative, you may still be concerned
about surviving physical death. This is normal. Reassurance
will come in time. You may want to read part of the book online.
Surely, if you do that, you will realize that the content could
not have been dreamed by another human, and put through in such
beautiful and precise language. If you conclude that the papers
were presented by Higher Beings, then ask yourself the question:
Why would they lie to us?
