Ever wonder why The Urantia Book uses from so many biblical quotes? So do I. From Paper 2, Section 5, "The Love of God," draws much from the "Biblical well," as it seeks to illuminate the real nature of God's love for mankind, and it is worth a few minutes to explore this great passage from one of the best literary descriptions of Gods' appealing nature you will find anywhere.

Rules To Live By
What do we first learn when we arise on resurrection morn? According to Paper 48 in the Urantia Book, we are told new souls are given "rule to live by," upon entrance into the "heavenly spheres, " a spiritual philosophy they refer to as Morontia Mota, concepts designed to advance our way of thinking AND living. You might find these concepts useful when navigating through the complexities of modern times, as well. It's also a good example of how the fifth epochal revelation helps elevate our spiritual philosophy. Let's explore them together.

The Christian Paradox
While Christianity remains among the most progressive religions, there are some things contemporary Christianity cannot answer, including subjects having to do with life on other planets, ET's, the afterlife, and of course 95% percent of human history.What's the real story of human evolution and how does it square with spiritual truth?Even science has limitations on how much we really know about our origins.In this episode, we explore how the information in the UB can fill in the "missing pieces" of Christianity's origins, purpose and history, previous pre-history, and the four previous revelations that dot the line of human history, including detailed stories of Adam and Eve, Melchizedek, the Lucifer Rebellion and even the full life life and teachings of Jesus Christ.A recent Blaze Media article illustrates how tardy Christianity has become in answering the deep questions of our time, including how we got here and our place in the universe. These are all questions the Urantia Book directly addresses, while at the same time the UB runs along a Judeo-Christian theme that validates role in Hebrew and Christian teachings have shaped human history.

Stephen C. Meyer - Intelligent Design
Stephen C. Meyer was on my podcast a few years ago. He had just written a book and I reached out to him to ask if he would come on my show, which he did.Stephen can be described as a scientist as well as a philosopher. He is also an avid reader of the Urantia Book. Stephen is well versed in the UB, and he smartly uses present science to substantiate and validate spiritual truths found in the Revelation.Today, Stephen has a major movie coming out. It’s called The Theory of Everything, and it proves, through scientific evidence, that is massive evidence that shows man is created by intelligent design, and further,, there is ample evidence to show life did not evolved accidentally. It is also exciting to know the Christian community is supportive of Mr. Meyer works and is involved in promoting the film worldwide. Many Salem Radio hosts (which is a Christian network) are interviewing Stephen this week , he will be across America by millions of people.Stephen's remarkable film is music to ears of a world that has given up on religion, has become spiritually blind and deaf, but still seeks for meaning in life and spiritual truth.Christians are thrilled with Stephen because he gives validation to spiritual truths through analytic practice. He asserts spiritual truths that are apparent if you just point them out, like gravity for example, which an example indication of absolute laws, not random causation.Stephene is an ambassador.This weekend millions of people will see his movie and members of the Urantia community should be thrilled to know Stephen is taking UB truths to mainstream.Here is my interview with Stephen from June 2021.

A History of Epochal Revelations

We'll look at what social media has to say about the Son of Man.And from Paper 142, we learn how the early followers of Jesus, in trying to appeal to the religious rulers of Palestine, may have sacrificed the saving message of Jesus as he lived and taught the gospel of "fellowship for all peoples, religions and nations."Follow on X @Urantiaradio Visit and join our community at UrantiaRadio.org

The Natural Order w/ Jayme Brock
Author Jayme Brock joins me to talk about her new book Recipe of Jesus - which examines Jesus' life as it is presented in the Urantia Book, against the backdrop of something called. "The Laws of Natural Order."According to this philosophy, Jayme explains, "When we deviate from the laws that govern the natural order of things, systems break down, and we cannot evade the consequences of our actions."It's a fascinating and uplifting discussion of why things sometimes go wrong, and how Jesus tried to show us this very truth in his life and his teachings.

Trust in Your Pilot
Mind is your ship, the Adjuster is your pilot, the human will is captain. The master of the mortal vessel should have the wisdom to trust the divine pilot to guide the ascending soul into the morontia harbors of eternal survival. Only by selfishness, slothfulness, and sinfulness can the will of man reject the guidance of such a loving pilot and eventually wreck the mortal career upon the evil shoals of rejected mercy and upon the rocks of embraced sin. With your consent, this faithful pilot will safely carry you across the barriers of time and the handicaps of space to the very source of the divine mind and on beyond, even to the Paradise Father of Adjusters (your spirit).

Who Was This Jesus?
This episide discusses Paper 21 and the mission and natures of Creator Sons, and includes several different topics all related to Jesus Christ, the Son of Man and Son of God to over a billion people on earth.What is the real significance of Jesus, who appeared on the scene two-thousand years ago and changed the entire world with his teachings?Who was Jesus before the bestowal? Why is it important to know about Christ Michael in connection with the bestowal of Jesus of Nazareth?Today, thousands are punished and even willing to face death because of their faith in him, governments today still fear him, and Western countries who have benefited from his teachings now shun him (to their own peril) in greater numbers.Let's go deep on this, because no other subject draws such dramatic distinctions than between the teachings of Christianity and the teachings of the Urantia Book, on the the story of Jesus Christ.
