I was reading this today, and for the first time I noticed something humorous from a Life Carrier in the Revelation, concerning Andon and Fonta. It is my pleasure to share this. I will highlight the part that made me laugh. 63:7.3 Andon and Fonta, shortly after their arrival on Jerusem, received per...

Rather than start a new topic, I thought I might dredge up one that is already started. A couple of nights ago, I had a really nice spiritual experience. Normally it is hot and humid where I live, and consequently, I see quite a few less stars at night than I did in all my years in the northern part...

I am truly blessed, and truly grateful. I just know that there is someone, somewhere I am supposed to help, and until that happens, it is "good old Urantia" for me. What a great reason to stay alive! Thanks for these stories of your spiritual experiences... And I hope you and your wife en...

Simply put, Jesus "went about doing good". 100:7.7 (1102.4) Of Jesus it was truly said, “He trusted God.” As a man among men he most sublimely trusted the Father in heaven. He trusted his Father as a little child trusts his earthly parent. His faith was perfect but never presumptuous. No m...

Some of my favorite stuff here. But wait! There's more! 119:1.4 (1310.1) And this is about all that appears on the records of Salvington regarding the first Michael bestowal. Nothing more appears until after one hundred years of Urantia time, when there was recorded the fact of Michael’s return and ...

Thanks, Joe, for your story. It's like you were faced with good and evil all in one night. So glad you chose the Hope Center and that you eventually ended up with The Urantia Book. The connection of the UBook with the 12step program is one I have heard many times. It's a powerful and practical way ...

When I came home from Vietnam in January of 1970, after two years of horror, and drugs, I ran away to California from Seattle, and got a job washing dishes at a Denny's in Long Beach. I have a cousin of basically the same age, and we were very close since the age of 10. So I stayed with he and his d...

I have not been around that much in recent times, but having been a computer professional since before everyone had internet, perhaps I may furnish some insight into what the perceived problem is. Back in the days before Facebook and Twitter, we used to have Listservers and Bulletin Boards. There wa...

My personal religion is influenced for the good not only by all the Spirit and Godly influences within and without me, but it takes a long range point of view. This world is merely a "spirit nursery" wherein we soil ourselves (figuratively and spiritually) and cry. Our future is so vast an...

Hello Brothers and Sisters, I have had a variety of profound spiritual experiences since I was last able to get onto this forum. In October of 2010, my wife had a burst aneurysm in her Superior Mesenteric Artery, which is way most often fatal. We were in Fairbanks, Alaska, and the doctors in the ER ...

Hi Nancy! I sure am glad that the UB found you. It is still, after nearly 35 years of reading it, my absolute written reference book. If anything tries to point me in another direction, it is my TRUTH guide. I am an expatriate from White Center, and I have lived in Fairbanks, Alaska for 26 years now...

Hi Brothers and Sisters, I think it is also interesting to note that Eve came to Urantia with an exhaustive knowledge of how all the plants afected human physiology, and used them with great effect in healing. That being said, St. John's Wort is a plant, occurring naturally on our planet, and seems ...

I really don't know how I got here. I think I was invited, and truthfully, my life is so full these days as to leave little time for this. But it is always good to fellowship with those of a similar belief and mindset. Which is one of the reasons I love this place. I became interested in the UB thro...
