The book of Urantia - The Supreme Revelation of the Father

Document 7

The Eternal Son is a complete, exclusive, universal and final revelation of the spirit and personality of the Universal Father. All knowledge and information about the Father must come from the Eternal Son and His Paradise Sons. The Eternal Son proceeds from eternity and is totally and without spiritual qualification one with the Father. In divine personality they are coordinated; In spiritual nature they are equal; In divinity are identical.

The character of God could not be improved intrinsically in any way in the person of the Son, because the divine Father is infinitely perfect, but that character and that personality is extended, freeing himself from the non-personal and non-spiritual, for his revelation to beings Creatures. The First Source and Center is much more than a personality, but all the spiritual qualities of the paternal personality of the First Source and Center are spiritually present in the absolute personality of the Son

The Primordial Son and his Sons are committed to making a universal revelation of the spiritual and personal nature of the Father to all creation. In the central universe, in the superuniverses, in the local universes, or in the inhabited planets, it is a Paradise Son who reveals the Universal Father to men and to angels. The Eternal Son and his Children reveal the avenue through which the creature has access to the Universal Father. And even we superiors understand the Father much more fully as we study the revelation of his character and personality in the Eternal Son and the Sons of the Eternal Son.

The Father descends to you, as a personality, only through the divine Sons of the Eternal Son. And you come to the Father by that same living way; You ascend to the Father thanks to the guidance of this group of divine Sons. This is true even though your personality itself is a direct gift of the Universal Father.

In all these vast activities of the vast spiritual administration of the Eternal Son, do not forget that the Son is a person as authentic and real as the Father. Indeed, for the beings of the old human order, it will be easier to approach the Eternal Son than the Universal Father. In the progress of the pilgrims of time through the Havona circuits, you can reach the Son long before you are ready to discern the Father.

You will learn more about the character and the merciful nature of the Eternal Son as you meditate on the revelation of these divine attributes, effected in loving service by your own Creator Son, who was once Son of Man on earth, now exalted sovereign of your local universe : The Son of Man and the Son of God.
