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.”
