Ministering Spirits of the Local Universe—Paper 38: Final - The Midway Creatures

We are back this week to finish our study of Urantia Paper 38 - Ministering Spirits of the Local Universe, with Section 9: The Midway Creatures. So far, we have learned about the Seraphim, that are created by the universe Mother Spirit. We've explored how they appreciate human efforts in music, art, and humor and that they truly love human beings. Paper 38 reveals a long ladder of vital and living beings who serve in our universe. Section 9 of this paper reveals the beings who, on that ladder, come the closest to human beings. The Urantia Book calls them Midwayers, because they come midway between men and the angels. In most cases, they are vital to the success of the efforts that the spirit realm engages in on behalf of the humans who live on the inhabited worlds. They are absolutely fascinating creatures and they help humanity in countless ways. 38:9.12.The primary midwayers are the planetary historians who, from the time of the arrival of the Planetary Prince to the age of settled light and life, formulate the pageants and design the portrayals of planetary history for the exhibits of the planets on the system headquarters worlds. The Midwayers are our resident planetary custodians and historians. They work tirelessly to bring our world from chaos to order and from darkness to light. This is no easy accomplishment, and especially not on a confused world like ours.  For example, was Midwayers who authored Part IV of The Urantia Book, The Life and Teacings of Jesus. Who better to keep these records than beings who actually stay on this world through its most critical evolutionary phases. We owe them our profound gratitude and it is amazing to learn who they are and how they function.  We will no doubt have many great cross references in this episode. We hope you will join us for a fascinating discussion on the Midwayers, as revealed by The Urantia Book.
