The Reality of Endless Life - Paper 47 of The Urantia Book - Continued

from The Cosmic Citizen · host Paula Thompson

This week we continue our series on the afterlife.  In the last two weeks we covered the third and fourth Mansion Worlds. Jesus alluded to this phase of the afterlife when he said: "In my Father's house are many mansions." The Urantia Book provided comprehensive detail on what happens after death. It's says that, death adds "nothing to the intellectual possession or to the spiritual endowment" but that it does "add to the experiential status the consciousness of survival." Paper 47 of Urantia Book reveals levels of existence that fall between matter and spirit. It says, "The life after death is no different in the essentials than the mortal existence. Everything we do in this life which is good contributes directly to the enhancement of the future life." Andthat, "The entire universe is one vast school." Amid the economic upheavals, moral crosscurrents and cyclonic transitions these unsettling times, have you become humanly dislocated? Are you anxious, restless, fearful, uncertain, and unsettled? In the face of unprecedented scientific achievement and mechanical development do you feel spiritual stagnation and philosophic chaos?  If so, it's time to romance the universe and reach out for spiritual teachings that make sense and put this era into perspective. The Urantia Book gives hope to the hopeless. It says, "Having started out on the way of life everlasting, having accepted the assignment and received your orders to advance, do not fear the dangers of human forgetfulness and mortal inconstancy, do not be troubled with doubts of failure or by perplexing confusion, do not falter and question your status and standing, for in every dark hour, at every crossroad in the forward struggle, the Spirit of Truth will always speak, saying, "This is the way." Please join us, as we continue to explore the hereafter.
