"The Urantia Papers.
The papers, of which this is one, constitute the most recent presentation
of truth to the mortals of Urantia(Earth). These papers differ from all
previous revelations, for they are not the work of a single universe personality
but a composite presentation by many beings. 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."
"A new and fuller revelation
of the religion of Jesus is destined to conquer an empire of materialistic
secularism and to overthrow a world sway of mechanistic naturalism. Urantia
is now quivering on the very brink of one of its most amazing and enthralling
epochs of social readjustment, moral quickening, and spiritual enlightenment."
"Providence functions
with regard to the total and deals with the function of any creature as
such function is related to the total. Providential intervention with regard
to any being is indicative of the importance of the function of that being
as concerns the evolutionary growth of some total; such total may be the
total race, the total nation, the total planet, or even a higher total."
"But the times of the
reappearing of the Son of Man are known only in the councils of Paradise;
not even the angels of heaven know when this will occur. However, you should
understand that, when this gospel of the kingdom shall have been proclaimed
to all the world for the salvation of all peoples, and when the fullness
of the age has come to pass, the Father will send you another dispensational
bestowal, or else the Son of Man will return to adjudge the age."
"The children of light
are all destined to see him, and it is of no serious concern whether we
go to him or whether he should chance first to come to us. Be you therefore
ever ready to welcome him on earth as he stands ready to welcome you in
heaven."
