Questions/comments- LW - “It is true that the Urantia material
contains false teachings. I directly asked Mother (E.C.Prophet) about this
book in 1979 at a stump in was taking questions and answers
from those who attended, and she told me that Mark (M.L.Prophet) had her
study it and other books to discern truth from error. It (The Urantia book)
contains errors and the greatest error had to do with the concept of the “Michael
sons”. She (E.C.P) told me in front of
many people who were at a stump that chelas of the ascended masters do not read
or study this book, because of the mixture of truth and error which
contradicts our teachings.” MKH- “When I came in contact
with that book, about 1970 or so, before I found the Teachings ( of Prophet’s), I
could tell (was told by my HCS/the Holy Christ Self/ or Master?) that it was
ridiculous because it claimed that Archangel Michael and Jesus (Urantia’s Christ Michael,
the Sovereign of our local universe of Nebadon), were the same being. I did not
waste any more time on it after that.” LW -
“You are right, the book says that Jesus and Michael are the same
person, so the obvious conclusion is that this
is false teaching.” Answers- A- The karmic consequences of the
Elizabeth C. Prophet’s comments regarding the Urantia book have been
discussed sufficiently in the Q-A Paper 2 and the Interim-paper VII. The rest
belongs to the laws of limitations of the individual and/or collective human
evolutionary state of mind. Have you ever condemn the school
book because of the text you did not understand, or have you rather
patiently continued with your studies until such times when the school text
became perfectly understandable to you?
Speaking allegorically: - The earth was considered flat till 15thcentury
and round in the
16th century. Depending upon someone’s state of mind and
incarnation, someone
could die or live for his/hers same beliefs during this period of time. Is humanity
today faring so much better with respect to the prosecution of
someone’s beliefs? As far as the name of Michaels
are concerned, are you saying that if anyone in telephone book comes across
the name Michael, the obvious conclusion he or she should have is that only one
Michael is real and all the others are false (?!). Should someone rather, if
interested, try to learn more about the (personalities and identities of) other
Michaels before we call them false? When comments are made about the
texts, such as the Urantia book, it must be very important to point out
exactly where such contradicting statements were made and support them by
evidence ( book, chapter and page number), otherwise the comments become
nothing more than just another hearsay. The Urantia book says NOWHERE
that the Michael of Nebadon, the Son Of God, and the Archangel
Michael are the same beings (persons). It would be appreciated if you
would correct everyone where it says otherwise?! The Urantia book in Paper 33,
p.366, speaks very clearly about the origin and the person of (Christ) Michael
of Nebadon, the Creator (Michael) Son of God. In Lighttoparadise Paper 5, The
Local Universe, it has been also written about The Creator Sons of the The Urantia is stating that our
rather confused planet has become the divisional headquarter of archangels for
the local universe of Nebadon administration and speaks of the “archangel of
Michael” as the archangel of the resurrection.(p.409) This by no means undermines the
dictations and the function of the Michael as taught by The Church
Universal and Triumphant and The Summit It is very important to voice
the opinion, even contradictory, as long as everyone respects all other voiced
opinions, and the prevailing collective mind will move humanity, in time, to the next
hurdle of the planetary school of life. Regardless of the difference in
opinion, your comments and questions are appreciated in the continuation
of our dialogs through Q-A papers.
