Urantia Association International - fostering study of The Urantia Book and disseminating its teachings. www.urantia-association.org/about-uai/

Urantia Association International is made up of ordinary people who have discovered an extraordinary book – The Urantia Book. Each of us has been inspired by the book’s revelatory teachings and wish to share what we have discovered with others. Our mission is to foster the study of The Urantia Book and disseminate its teachings as we believe the teachings in this book have the potential to contribute to the spiritual, social, and moral regeneration of this world. To accomplish our goals we have created this international association to serve as a central hub of information and outreach – based on the teachings of The Urantia Book – to people across the globe. We provide interactive learning environments in which students of The Urantia Book may deepen and broaden their knowledge of the book and find ways of sharing the teachings with their fellow men and women in their everyday lives. We sponsor activities such as encouraging the formation of Urantia Book study groups and organizing educational events like conferences, seminars and symposiums. We provide publications and study aids, assist readers to obtain the book and locate others with whom to study the book, and provide opportunities to exchange ideas and discuss spiritual ideals with fellow readers and truth seekers around the world. Urantia Association International includes members from many countries, cultures and faiths who recognize the significance of The Urantia Book as an epochal revelation to our world and who have a natural desire to help their fellows in their quest for higher meanings and spiritual values. We recognize that individuals can have their own personal relationship with God and understand that even though we come from diverse backgrounds and beliefs we are destined to become unified in the spirit.

5. Talks to the Apostles on Wealth
“Consider the lilies, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin; yet I say to you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. If God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is cut down and cast into the fire, how much more shall he clothe you, the ambassadors of the heavenly kingdom. O you of little faith! When you wholeheartedly devote yourselves to the proclamation of the gospel of the kingdom, you should not be of doubtful minds concerning the support of yourselves or the families you have forsaken. If you give your lives truly to the gospel, you shall live by the gospel. If you are only believing disciples, you must earn your own bread and contribute to the sustenance of all who teach and preach and heal. If you are anxious about your bread and water, wherein are you different from the nations of the world who so diligently seek such necessities? Devote yourselves to your work, believing that both the Father and I know that you have need of all these things. Let me assure you, once and for all, that, if you dedicate your lives to the work of the kingdom, all your real needs shall be supplied. Seek the greater thing, and the lesser will be found therein; ask for the heavenly, and the earthly shall be included. The shadow is certain to follow the substance."
The Urantia Book, 165:5.3 (1823.3)

6. The Spirit in Man
The consciousness of the spirit domination of a human life is presently attended by an increasing exhibition of the characteristics of the Spirit in the life reactions of such a spirit-led mortal, “for the fruits of the spirit are love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and temperance.” Such spirit-guided and divinely illuminated mortals, while they yet tread the lowly paths of toil and in human faithfulness perform the duties of their earthly assignments, have already begun to discern the lights of eternal life as they glimmer on the faraway shores of another world; already have they begun to comprehend the reality of that inspiring and comforting truth, “The kingdom of God is not meat and drink but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.” And throughout every trial and in the presence of every hardship, spirit-born souls are sustained by that hope which transcends all fear because the love of God is shed abroad in all hearts by the presence of the divine Spirit.
The Urantia Book, 34:6.13 (381.7)

The Faith of Jesus
The faith of Jesus attained the purity of a child’s trust. His faith was so absolute and undoubting that it responded to the charm of the contact of fellow beings and to the wonders of the universe. His sense of dependence on the divine was so complete and so confident that it yielded the joy and the assurance of absolute personal security. There was no hesitating pretense in his religious experience. In this giant intellect of the full-grown man the faith of the child reigned supreme in all matters relating to the religious consciousness. It is not strange that he once said, “Except you become as a little child, you shall not enter the kingdom.” Notwithstanding that Jesus’ faith was childlike, it was in no sense childish.

3. Enmity of the World
When Jesus heard Thomas, he answered: “Thomas, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No man goes to the Father except through me. All who find the Father, first find me. If you know me, you know the way to the Father. And you do know me, for you have lived with me and you now see me.”
The Urantia Book, 180:3.7 (1947.6)

1. The Trinity Teacher Sons
Even in the study of man’s biologic evolution on Urantia, there are grave objections to the exclusive historic approach to his present-day status and his current problems. The true perspective of any reality problem—human or divine, terrestrial or cosmic—can be had only by the full and unprejudiced study and correlation of three phases of universe reality: origin, history, and destiny. The proper understanding of these three experiential realities affords the basis for a wise estimate of the current status.
The Urantia Book, 19:1.6 (215.3)

6. Morontia World Seraphim—Transition Ministers
These angels are all in the chain of recorders extending from the lowest to the highest custodians of the facts of time and the truths of eternity. Some day they will teach you to seek truth as well as fact, to expand your soul as well as your mind. Even now you should learn to water the garden of your heart as well as to seek for the dry sands of knowledge. Forms are valueless when lessons are learned. No chick may be had without the shell, and no shell is of any worth after the chick is hatched. But sometimes error is so great that its rectification by revelation would be fatal to those slowly emerging truths which are essential to its experiential overthrow. When children have their ideals, do not dislodge them; let them grow. And while you are learning to think as men, you should also be learning to pray as children.
The Urantia Book, 48:6.32 (554.6)

1. Parable of the Lost Son
Jesus was very partial to telling these three stories at the same time. He presented the story of the lost sheep to show that, when men unintentionally stray away from the path of life, the Father is mindful of such lost ones and goes out, with his Sons, the true shepherds of the flock, to seek the lost sheep. He then would recite the story of the coin lost in the house to illustrate how thorough is the divine searching for all who are confused, confounded, or otherwise spiritually blinded by the material cares and accumulations of life. And then he would launch forth into the telling of this parable of the lost son, the reception of the returning prodigal, to show how complete is the restoration of the lost son into his Father’s house and heart.
The Urantia Book, 169:1.15 (1853.2)

8. The Birth of Jesus
In just the same manner as all babies before that day and since have come into the world, the promised child was born; and on the eighth day, according to the Jewish practice, he was circumcised and formally named Joshua (Jesus).
The Urantia Book, 122:8.2 (1351.6)

08/16/2026

The Faith of Jesus
Jesus does not require his disciples to believe in him but rather to believe with him, believe in the reality of the love of God and in full confidence accept the security of the assurance of sonship with the heavenly Father. The Master desires that all his followers should fully share his transcendent faith. Jesus most touchingly challenged his followers, not only to believe what he believed, but also to believe as he believed. This is the full significance of his one supreme requirement, “Follow me.”
The Urantia Book, 196:0.13 (2089.3)
