The Spheres of Light and Life—Paper 55–P2: The Morontia Temple

Last week we began a new study of Urantia Paper 55: The Spheres of Light and Life.  Urantia Paper 55 reveals that the apex of attainment for an evolutionary world is the golden age of Light and Life. Once attained, the era of light and life continues FOREVER. 55:1.1.The presence of a morontia temple at the capital of an inhabited world is the certificate of the admission of such a sphere to the settled ages of light and life.  The end result of ages of planetary progress and social evolution finds a world in which disease has been largely eliminated. Also virtually gone are idleness, poverty, degeneracy, insanity, and delinquency. Science, art, and industry flourish; economic life becomes ethical. War is known only in history; there are no armies or police forces. Government fades away in inverse proportion to morality and spirituality. Life is refreshingly simple. 55:2.1.Natural, physical death is not a mortal inevitability. The majority of advanced evolutionary beings, citizens on worlds existing in the final era of light and life, do not die; they are translated directly from the life in the flesh to the morontia existence. The story of life after death from the Urantia Papers is the most compelling account ever told of how human beings can evolve and ascend. In the stages of Light and Life, natural death is gone. Most people who live on worlds in the advanced stages of light and life do not die; they are "translated" directly to the next stage of existence through a process called fusion. This paper provides an astonishing look at evolution in the inhabited universe. It spells out the best possible news in terms of human destiny and teaches that our world is truly destined for sublime joy and peace. Do you think we can get there? It may be hard to imagine, but join us as we discover together an amazing journey from darkness and death to the realization of LIGHT and LIFE!
