 A PROCLAMATION TO THE WORLD

 

An Introduction to the Urantia Book

The Urantia Book may be the most powerful evidence ever that mankind is not alone, and that there is intelligent life in the Universe. The Urantia Book boldly claims to be a revelation of truth to our world from the headquarters of a trillion inhabited worlds.  This revelation, in book form, is intended to help guide humankind into the next era of evolutionary progress. It provides a deeper appreciation and understanding of our own planetary family, as well as our  place in the cosmic family of freewill intelligent beings. It reveals as never before an infinite circle of creation, at the center of which reigns our beneficent and loving creator.

First published in 1955, The Urantia Book is a literary masterpiece that harmonizes science, religion, and philosophy, while illuminating   mankind’s origin, history and destiny. The last 800 pages are undoubtedly the most sublimely beautiful account of Jesus’ life and teachings ever told.

Part One, The Central And Super Universe, deals with God “the first source and center of all things and beings” in a vast creation. It reveals as never before, the Creator’s loving nature and relationship to the part and whole of creation. It offers a deeper understanding of both the spiritual and physical organization of the Universe of Universes.

Part Two, The Local Universe, focuses on our part of the cosmos, describing life as it is organized and exists in our Local Universe. It explains the many celestial helpers who guide us in our journey inward to the center of creation, giving a detailed account of what happens when our life on Earth is done, as well as revealing our personal, planetary, and universe destiny.

Part Three, The History of Urantia, is an extraordinarily insightful depiction of the evolution of life on Earth.  It describes humanity’s journey from the most primitive forms of civilization to our current situation, and reveals practical next steps to help us advance to even higher levels of existence. Dedication to the ideals of marriage and family life are revealed as critical to advancing civilization. Eventually, the cosmic reality of the global family of all mankind will carry us on to our ultimate goal of planetary progress. The details and significance of Adam and Eve and Melchizedek further complete our historical knowledge. The presentation of the Divine Spark of God that lives within each individual is one of the major concepts presented.

Part Four, The Life and Teachings of Jesus, lifts Jesus out of the context of the Christian religion and portrays his life and teachings in a way that is inspiring to people of all faiths and all walks of life. This includes a profoundly moving account of Jesus’ life in chronological order from birth, through childhood, adolescence, adult years (including his private and public ministries), and eventual death and resurrection.

Readers of The Urantia Book commonly experience profound transformation, and an uplifting desire to grow in spirit and grace, to actually live in partnership with God.
