Frequently Asked Questions
The Urantia Book: Life of Jesus
What does The Urantia Book say about Jesus?
The story of Jesus you will discover in The Urantia Book offers answers to many unanswered questions about his life. It expands greatly on the way he is depicted in Christian religions.
In fact, Jesus warned his followers against forming creeds and traditions, such as those that have built up around his life on earth. Instead, he wanted to set people free from stifling religious beliefs. He gave them spiritual freedom.
He taught that we can each develop a personal relationship with God—and that God loves us infinitely. The death of Jesus on the cross was not a sacrifice for our sins to appease an angry Father. Jesus came to earth to reveal God’s love for every human being.
Jesus showed us that love is the most powerful force in the universe. And he wants us to prove this again in the way we live our lives.
Jesus: a cosmic being
God is the first source and center of the cosmos. The Urantia Book teaches that God’s creation is vast and that large parts of the universe are inhabited by human, celestial and spirit beings.
The book also tells us that the cosmos is still being created. Jesus is one of many divine beings called Sons of God who play a part in its creation and growth. He is the creator of a stretch of the universe where planet Earth is located. In the book our planet is called Urantia.
The Urantia Book reframes Jesus as a Son of God in a grand universe.
Why Jesus came to Earth
As a divine personality, Jesus chose to experience living the life of a human being on this planet 2,000 years ago.
He came to Earth for two main reasons. To reveal God to men and women of all generations in this world and others. And to demonstrate the spiritual heights to which human beings can rise if they live as he lived: he served his fellow human beings selflessly and sought to do the will of God at all times.
He taught that we are all children of a loving God and that we are all therefore brothers and sisters. He brought hope, comfort and joy by teaching that simple faith is the key to eternal life in God’s family.
His spirit is still present among us, guiding us towards truth and light.
The full human life of Jesus
Part IV of The Urantia Book, life of Jesus, narrates his life from birth to death. Most of it, especially the years spanning his childhood, adolescence and early manhood, had never been revealed before.
The book goes into great detail about his incomparable character, his relationships with his family and apostles, his encounters and adventures on his travels, his miracles, his teachings and parables, his death and resurrection. It is a beautiful and inspiring story of the greatest human being who ever lived.
The Urantia Book says that of all the information it contains, the most valuable is the knowledge of the spiritual life that Jesus lived.
The character of Jesus
The story of Jesus in The Urantia Book is profoundly human and vivid. Readers get to know and feel who he really was and what he was like inside. We get to experience how he was misunderstood and how he dealt so compassionately with his enemies. His person becomes alive as we read descriptions of his superbly balanced personality.
He was a man of “unfailing kindness” which “touched the hearts of men.” Yet his strength of character amazed his friends.
He was truly sincere but so reasonable and approachable. He was candid, but always kind. Frank, but always friendly. He lived by the highest ideals yet was always practical and full of common sense.
Jesus was unafraid – courageous but never reckless. He was very broad-minded yet always looked for truths in the teachings of others.
He was an unusually cheerful person yet not a blind optimist. He had an unshakable confidence in both God and man.
He trusted God as a little child trusts his earthly parent. And he loved men and women as brothers and sisters. He simply “went about doing good.”
