Guardian Angels
From paper 113 we look at Guardian Angels, where they are, what they do, and why "only good can come from learning more about them."
1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,880
Welcome to another edition of
the Urantia Radio Podcast.
2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:05,800
We talk about the 5th Epochal
revelation.
3
00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:09,200
Pretty great stuff.
I'm Jim Watkins, your host, and
4
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:11,400
this week we're going to talk
about guardian angels.
5
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:14,120
I know a lot of people, even
people who aren't particularly
6
00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:18,600
religious, are always fanciful
of the idea of having guardian
7
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:20,560
angels.
And what better way to learn
8
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:24,080
about guardian angels than when?
The Urantia Book, Paper 113,
9
00:00:24,080 --> 00:00:25,760
which is the paper we'll go over
today.
10
00:00:26,240 --> 00:00:29,760
We'll talk about what they do,
how they operate, how they
11
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:33,160
function and who they serve and
for what reason.
12
00:00:33,160 --> 00:00:37,920
And it's an incredible read from
Paper 113, so we'll get to that.
13
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:40,800
There are a couple of big events
that are coming up this
14
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:43,560
Saturday, April 6th.
There's going to be a great
15
00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:47,120
presentation that talks about
the importance of the revelation
16
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:51,040
and how it serves mankind.
Urantia Association President
17
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,240
who will be giving the
discussion And if you go on the
18
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:57,400
Urantia Association website, you
should be able to find some
19
00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:00,440
information on that.
The value of revelation Google
20
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,480
Urantia Association.
And then there's another event
21
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:07,160
that's coming up that I owe the
Ubis April 22nd.
22
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,480
They begin the next semester at
the Urantia Book Internet
23
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,360
School.
And that's always an opportunity
24
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:17,480
for you as a new reader or a
continuing reader to learn from
25
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,760
other readers and share your
experiences with other other
26
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,480
readers as well.
And I hope that you will.
27
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,600
I hope that you will be able to
sign up for that.
28
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:30,080
It's absolutely free and doesn't
cost anything.
29
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,520
It's about a six week course and
it takes about maybe an hour or
30
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,040
two.
Mostly it's reading and then
31
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:41,480
writing and discussing what you
read and they focus in on maybe
32
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,400
six or seven different topics
for the whole course.
33
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,800
But you can take one course for
the entire six weeks and it's a
34
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:52,440
lot of fun and all you have to
do is go to theorancha.org
35
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:56,240
website and there'll be
information on Ubis.
36
00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:01,000
So in just a second, we'll delve
into Paper 113 and we'll have a
37
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,040
wonderful time exploring the
world of Guardian Angels.
38
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,440
If you are familiar with the
Orancha book, you're most likely
39
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:42,200
already familiar with the
varying levels of angelic
40
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,560
helpers that we have, and
essentially they are the
41
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:50,680
offspring of the divine spirit.
So think of the corollary of two
42
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,800
kinds of entities, personality
beings.
43
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:58,080
You've got those who are the
offspring or the descendant of
44
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,640
the father, and then you have a
parallel group that are the
45
00:03:01,640 --> 00:03:03,200
offspring of the infinite
spirit.
46
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:07,400
And it is there that we learn
from the Oranche book about the
47
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,480
different levels and the
different experiences and the
48
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,280
abilities.
Not all angels are the same,
49
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,480
some have innate abilities.
We know also that they always
50
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:20,040
work in pairs, and that very
rarely do we have an opportunity
51
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:24,560
in our mortal life, have an
opportunity to meet them.
52
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,640
But the Urantia book writers
wanted us to become more
53
00:03:27,640 --> 00:03:32,160
familiar with angels, and so
they dedicated chapters upon
54
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,760
chapters to their work and what
they're related to.
55
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,640
And and not all of Seraphim work
with humans.
56
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:42,320
Some have other destinies.
And so let's pick up from paper
57
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:46,720
113 where it talks about what
guardian angels are and what
58
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:52,120
guardian angels do for us.
We pick up from Section 4, which
59
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,360
is entitled The Seraphim Domains
of Action.
60
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,600
The Guardian Seraphim are not
Mind, though they do spring from
61
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:02,320
the same source that also gives
origin to mortal mind.
62
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:06,480
The creative Spirit Seraphim are
mind stimulators.
63
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,640
They continually seek to promote
circle making decisions in human
64
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,760
mind.
They do this not as does the
65
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:17,640
Adjuster or the Spirit fragment
operating from within and
66
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:21,640
through the soul, but rather
from the outside inward working
67
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:25,600
through the social, ethical and
moral environment of human
68
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,400
beings.
Seraphim are not the divine
69
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,880
adjuster lure of the Universal
Father, but they do function as
70
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:35,800
the personal agency of the
ministry of the Infinite Spirit.
71
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,440
Mortal man subject to his Spirit
Adjuster leading is also
72
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:45,200
amenable to seraphic guidance.
So not all are you influenced by
73
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,920
the Spirit of the Father in
within, but also from the
74
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:52,600
Seraphim or the Guardian
Seraphim on the external
75
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,960
outside.
The Adjuster is the essence of
76
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,680
man's eternal nature.
The Seraphim is the teacher of
77
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:04,560
man's evolving nature, and this
the mortal mind and the next the
78
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,200
morontious soul.
On the mansion worlds you will
79
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:11,320
be conscious and aware of
Seraphic instructors, but in the
80
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,280
first life, men and women are
usually unaware of them.
81
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:20,280
Seraphim function as teachers of
men by guiding the footsteps of
82
00:05:20,280 --> 00:05:23,800
the human personality into paths
of new and progressive
83
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,920
experiences.
To accept the guidance of a
84
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,600
seraphim rarely, rarely means
attaining a life of ease.
85
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:35,600
In following this leading, you
are sure to be to encounter and
86
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:39,040
if you have the courage to
traverse the rugged hills of
87
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,960
moral choosing and spiritual
progress.
88
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:47,000
So here it delineates that a
challenging life is a life that
89
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:48,720
teaches you your greatest
lessons.
90
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:54,600
A life of ease does not.
The impulse of worship largely
91
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:58,360
originates in the spirit
promptings of the higher mind
92
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,680
adjutants reinforced by the
leading of the adjuster.
93
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,200
Many times you've been taking a
walk and you notice a
94
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,320
particularly beautiful sunset
and it maybe gives you the
95
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:14,720
desire to give thanks that maybe
the Seraphima nearby who was
96
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,640
calling her attention in some
way.
97
00:06:18,280 --> 00:06:21,240
But the urge to pray so often
experienced by God conscious
98
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:25,480
mortals very often arises as a
result of seraphic influence.
99
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,840
The Guardian Seraphim is
constantly manipulating the
100
00:06:29,840 --> 00:06:33,440
mortal environment for the
purpose of augmenting the cosmic
101
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:37,920
insight of the human ascender to
the end that such a survival
102
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:41,960
candidate may acquire enhanced
realization of the presence of
103
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:45,720
the indwelling and gesture
spirit, and thus be enabled to
104
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:49,440
yield increased cooperation with
the spirit mission of the Divine
105
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:53,120
Presence.
While there is apparently no
106
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:56,200
communication between the
indwelling fragment, the
107
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,680
Adjuster, and the encompassing
Seraphim, they always seem to
108
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,120
work in perfect harmony and
exquisite accord.
109
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,640
The guardians are most active at
those times when the ingestors
110
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:12,040
are least active, but their
ministry is in some manner
111
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:17,560
strangely correlated.
Such superb cooperation could
112
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,360
hardly be accidental or
incidental.
113
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:25,000
The ministering personality of
the guardian seraphim, the God
114
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:29,040
presence of the indwelling
adjuster, the encircuited action
115
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,760
of the Holy Spirit, and the sun
consciousness of the Spirit of
116
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,600
truth are all divinely
correlated into a meaningful
117
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:41,240
unity of spiritual ministry in
and to a mortal personality.
118
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,680
Though hailing from different
sources at different levels and
119
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:49,520
at different levels, these
celestial influences are all
120
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:54,640
integrated in the enveloping and
evolving presence of the Supreme
121
00:07:54,640 --> 00:08:01,240
Being.
In Paper 113, Section 5, we read
122
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,400
about the seraphic ministry to
mortals.
123
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,200
Angels do not invade the
sanctity of the human mind.
124
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,400
They do not manipulate the will
of mortals.
125
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:14,840
Neither do they directly contact
with the indwelling adjusters.
126
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,880
The guardian of destiny
influences you in every possible
127
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:22,440
manner consistent with the
dignity of your personality.
128
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:27,280
Under no circumstances do these
angels interfere with the free
129
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:31,040
action of the human will.
Neither angels, nor any other
130
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:35,840
order of universe personality
have power to or authority to
131
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:40,120
curtail or abridge the
prerogatives of human choosing.
132
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:46,640
Angels are so near you, and care
so feelingly for you, that they
133
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:51,160
figuratively quote weep because
of your willful intolerance and
134
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:52,720
stubbornness.
End Quote.
135
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:56,320
Seraphim do not shed physical
tears.
136
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,800
They do not have physical
bodies, neither do they possess
137
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:03,800
wings, but they do have
spiritual emotions, and they do
138
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:07,240
experience feelings and
sentiments of a spiritual
139
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:10,920
nature, which are in certain
ways comparable to human
140
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:14,560
emotions.
The Seraphim act on your behalf
141
00:09:14,560 --> 00:09:16,760
quite independent of your direct
appeals.
142
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:21,320
They are executing the mandates
of their superiors, and thus
143
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:25,600
they function regardless of your
passing whims or changing moods.
144
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:30,000
This does not imply that you may
not make their task either
145
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:33,440
easier or more difficult, but
rather that angels are not
146
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:37,520
directly concerned with your
appeals or with your prayers in
147
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,840
the life of the flesh.
The intelligence of angels is
148
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:41,840
not directly available to mortal
men.
149
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:46,640
They are not overlords or
directors, they are simply
150
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,800
guardians.
The Seraphim guard you.
151
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,840
They do not seek directly to
influence you.
152
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:57,440
You must chart your own course,
but these angels then act to
153
00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:01,280
make the best possible use of
the course you have chosen.
154
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,680
They do not ordinarily or
arbitrarily intervene in the
155
00:10:05,680 --> 00:10:09,280
routine affairs of human life,
but when they receive
156
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,280
instructions from their
superiors to perform some
157
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:16,400
unusual exploit, you may rest
assured that these guardians
158
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,760
will find some means of carrying
out these mandates.
159
00:10:20,560 --> 00:10:24,240
They do not, therefore, intrude
into the picture of human drama,
160
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:28,640
except in emergencies and then
usually on the direct orders of
161
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:32,240
their superiors.
They are beings who are going to
162
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,960
follow you for many an age, and
they are thus receiving an
163
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,240
introduction to their future
work and personality
164
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:42,320
association.
It's interesting because they'll
165
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:46,200
they'll learn to work with us in
this life, and then the same
166
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:49,560
seraphim will be with us in the
next life and the next working
167
00:10:49,560 --> 00:10:52,000
with us, becoming our best
friends, really.
168
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:56,240
I mean, they really are our best
friends and we we're not even
169
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,480
conscious of them in this life.
But rest assured, in the next
170
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:03,560
life you'll have the opportunity
not only thank them, but to help
171
00:11:03,560 --> 00:11:05,920
them.
Final paragraph from this
172
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,920
section or this paper.
Seraphim are able to function as
173
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,720
material ministers to human
beings under certain
174
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:16,840
circumstances, but their actions
in this capacity is very rare.
175
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,960
They are able, with the
assistance of the midway
176
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:23,880
creatures and the physical
controllers, to function in a
177
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:29,120
wide range of activities in
behalf of human beings, even to
178
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,720
make actual contact with
mankind.
179
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,960
But such occurrences are very
unusual.
180
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:39,080
In most instances, the
circumstances of the material
181
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:43,240
realm proceed unaltered by
seraphic action, although
182
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:47,800
occasions have arisen involving
jeopardy to vital links in the
183
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:51,480
chain of human evolution in
which seraphic guardians have
184
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:55,160
acted and properly on their own
initiative.
185
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:58,800
Section 6.
Guardian Angels after death,
186
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,360
having told you something of the
Ministry of the Seraphim during
187
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:06,400
natural life, I will endeavor to
inform you about the conduct of
188
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:10,120
the guardians of destiny at the
time of the mortal dissolution
189
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:15,160
of their human associates.
Upon your death, your records,
190
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:19,560
identity specifications, and the
Morontia entity of the human
191
00:12:19,560 --> 00:12:23,600
soul conjointly evolved by the
Ministry of mortal Mind and the
192
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,920
divine Spirit fragment, the
Adjuster are faithfully
193
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,360
conserved by the destiny
Guardians, together with all
194
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,080
other values related to your
future existence.
195
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:37,800
Everything that constitutes you,
the real you, except the
196
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:42,160
identity of continuing existence
represented by the departing
197
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,960
spirit fragment and the actual
and the actuality of
198
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,640
personality.
The instant the pile of light in
199
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:52,040
the human mind disappears, the
spirit luminosity, which
200
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,800
Seraphim associate with the
presence of the spirit fragment
201
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:58,120
Adjuster, the attending Angel
reports in person to the
202
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:02,480
commanding angels successively
of the Group Company, Battalion,
203
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,840
Unit, Legion and Host.
And after being duly registered
204
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:09,360
for the final adventure of time
and Space, such an Angel
205
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:13,840
receives certification by the
planetary chief of Seraphim for
206
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:17,440
reporting to the Evening Star or
other Lieutenant of Gabriel.
207
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:20,760
They have to work through a a
chain of command.
208
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,160
It's it's very much like the
military the way they have
209
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,200
angels set up.
If you notice these are words
210
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:29,520
that you might find associated
like military service because
211
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:33,640
you have group, company,
battalion, unit, legion and
212
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,960
host.
And these all represent varying
213
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,760
degrees of angelic levels
really.
214
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:43,280
And with these varying levels
comes responsibility and
215
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:46,400
authority.
I go into great detail on this
216
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,240
in my first book.
And finally it says, And upon
217
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:53,080
being granted permission of from
the commander of this highest
218
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:57,040
organizational unit, such a
guardian of destiny proceeds to
219
00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:00,320
the first mansion world.
And there awaits the conscious
220
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:02,720
sizing of her former ward in the
flesh.
221
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:07,160
That would be you and me.
So in paper 14, which is the
222
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,320
subsequent paper to the one
we've just been reading, it
223
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,280
reads in the very beginning of
as to what we're talking about
224
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:17,800
here, in terms of sheer numbers,
the most highs rule in the
225
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:22,320
kingdoms of men through many
celestial forces and agencies,
226
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,040
but chiefly through the ministry
of Seraphim.
227
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:30,240
At noon today, the roll call of
planetary Angels, Guardians, and
228
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:40,080
others on our world, Urantia was
501,234,619 pairs of Seraphim,
229
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:44,080
this writer of this particular
paper writes There were assigned
230
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:49,960
to my command 200.
Seraphic hosts 597,000,000,
231
00:14:50,320 --> 00:15:01,080
196,800 pairs of Seraphim, or
1.194 billion, 393,600
232
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:05,080
individual angels, so that's
about almost one seventh of the
233
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:07,840
human population, they go on to
say.
234
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:12,760
The registry, however, shows
1.002 billion individuals
235
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:17,960
registered, but 191,000,000
angels were absent from this
236
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:21,760
world on different forms of
duty, including transport,
237
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:27,520
messenger and death duty.
And then it paraphrases on
238
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:30,880
Urantia, there are about the
same number of cherubim as
239
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:34,080
seraphim, and they are similarly
organized.
240
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:37,720
So they're saying we have not
only over a billion seraphim,
241
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,120
but we also have a billion
cherubim.
242
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:44,040
Seraphim and their associated
cherubim have much to do with
243
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:47,400
the details of the superhuman
government of a planet,
244
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,760
especially of worlds which have
been isolated by rebellion.
245
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:55,160
The angels, ably assisted by the
midwayers, function on Urantia
246
00:15:55,160 --> 00:16:00,600
as an actual super material
ministry who execute the
247
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,760
mandates of the resident
Governor General and all the
248
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:08,960
associates and subordinates.
Most definitely the most highest
249
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:12,840
rule in the kingdoms of men.
And there is a good example of
250
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,880
the depth that the Urania book
provides.
251
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,960
We learn all about the angels in
our own religious upbringing,
252
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:22,800
but the Urania book takes it a
step further and goes into much
253
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:27,400
more specificity as to what
these angels do and why, and
254
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:31,120
also where they come from and
how they are assembled and how
255
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,960
they are divided for labor.
And that concludes this
256
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:37,560
particular chapter.
We may continue on and get into
257
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,280
some of the more specifics.
I'd like to hear from you if
258
00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:43,520
you've got a topic or a subject.
If you want to know about the
259
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:46,360
Urantia book, we really love
hearing from you.
260
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:50,400
I got a suggestion a few weeks
ago about the resurrection and I
261
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,960
wanted to talk about that, but
that led me to the what I felt
262
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,760
was the more timely issue of
paper 113 of the Guardian
263
00:16:57,760 --> 00:16:59,840
Angels.
So I hope you enjoyed it and I
264
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:01,560
look forward to our next getting
together.
265
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:05,680
And of course always reach me at
urantiabookradio@gmail.com.
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,880
Welcome to another edition of
the Urantia Radio Podcast.
2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:05,800
We talk about the 5th Epochal
revelation.
3
00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:09,200
Pretty great stuff.
I'm Jim Watkins, your host, and
4
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:11,400
this week we're going to talk
about guardian angels.
5
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:14,120
I know a lot of people, even
people who aren't particularly
6
00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:18,600
religious, are always fanciful
of the idea of having guardian
7
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:20,560
angels.
And what better way to learn
8
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:24,080
about guardian angels than when?
The Urantia Book, Paper 113,
9
00:00:24,080 --> 00:00:25,760
which is the paper we'll go over
today.
10
00:00:26,240 --> 00:00:29,760
We'll talk about what they do,
how they operate, how they
11
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:33,160
function and who they serve and
for what reason.
12
00:00:33,160 --> 00:00:37,920
And it's an incredible read from
Paper 113, so we'll get to that.
13
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:40,800
There are a couple of big events
that are coming up this
14
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:43,560
Saturday, April 6th.
There's going to be a great
15
00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:47,120
presentation that talks about
the importance of the revelation
16
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:51,040
and how it serves mankind.
Urantia Association President
17
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,240
who will be giving the
discussion And if you go on the
18
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:57,400
Urantia Association website, you
should be able to find some
19
00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:00,440
information on that.
The value of revelation Google
20
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,480
Urantia Association.
And then there's another event
21
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:07,160
that's coming up that I owe the
Ubis April 22nd.
22
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,480
They begin the next semester at
the Urantia Book Internet
23
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,360
School.
And that's always an opportunity
24
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:17,480
for you as a new reader or a
continuing reader to learn from
25
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,760
other readers and share your
experiences with other other
26
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,480
readers as well.
And I hope that you will.
27
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,600
I hope that you will be able to
sign up for that.
28
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:30,080
It's absolutely free and doesn't
cost anything.
29
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,520
It's about a six week course and
it takes about maybe an hour or
30
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,040
two.
Mostly it's reading and then
31
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:41,480
writing and discussing what you
read and they focus in on maybe
32
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,400
six or seven different topics
for the whole course.
33
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,800
But you can take one course for
the entire six weeks and it's a
34
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:52,440
lot of fun and all you have to
do is go to theorancha.org
35
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:56,240
website and there'll be
information on Ubis.
36
00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:01,000
So in just a second, we'll delve
into Paper 113 and we'll have a
37
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,040
wonderful time exploring the
world of Guardian Angels.
38
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,440
If you are familiar with the
Orancha book, you're most likely
39
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:42,200
already familiar with the
varying levels of angelic
40
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,560
helpers that we have, and
essentially they are the
41
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:50,680
offspring of the divine spirit.
So think of the corollary of two
42
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,800
kinds of entities, personality
beings.
43
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:58,080
You've got those who are the
offspring or the descendant of
44
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,640
the father, and then you have a
parallel group that are the
45
00:03:01,640 --> 00:03:03,200
offspring of the infinite
spirit.
46
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:07,400
And it is there that we learn
from the Oranche book about the
47
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,480
different levels and the
different experiences and the
48
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,280
abilities.
Not all angels are the same,
49
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,480
some have innate abilities.
We know also that they always
50
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:20,040
work in pairs, and that very
rarely do we have an opportunity
51
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:24,560
in our mortal life, have an
opportunity to meet them.
52
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,640
But the Urantia book writers
wanted us to become more
53
00:03:27,640 --> 00:03:32,160
familiar with angels, and so
they dedicated chapters upon
54
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,760
chapters to their work and what
they're related to.
55
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,640
And and not all of Seraphim work
with humans.
56
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:42,320
Some have other destinies.
And so let's pick up from paper
57
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:46,720
113 where it talks about what
guardian angels are and what
58
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:52,120
guardian angels do for us.
We pick up from Section 4, which
59
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,360
is entitled The Seraphim Domains
of Action.
60
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,600
The Guardian Seraphim are not
Mind, though they do spring from
61
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:02,320
the same source that also gives
origin to mortal mind.
62
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:06,480
The creative Spirit Seraphim are
mind stimulators.
63
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,640
They continually seek to promote
circle making decisions in human
64
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,760
mind.
They do this not as does the
65
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:17,640
Adjuster or the Spirit fragment
operating from within and
66
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:21,640
through the soul, but rather
from the outside inward working
67
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:25,600
through the social, ethical and
moral environment of human
68
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,400
beings.
Seraphim are not the divine
69
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,880
adjuster lure of the Universal
Father, but they do function as
70
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:35,800
the personal agency of the
ministry of the Infinite Spirit.
71
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,440
Mortal man subject to his Spirit
Adjuster leading is also
72
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:45,200
amenable to seraphic guidance.
So not all are you influenced by
73
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,920
the Spirit of the Father in
within, but also from the
74
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:52,600
Seraphim or the Guardian
Seraphim on the external
75
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,960
outside.
The Adjuster is the essence of
76
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,680
man's eternal nature.
The Seraphim is the teacher of
77
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:04,560
man's evolving nature, and this
the mortal mind and the next the
78
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,200
morontious soul.
On the mansion worlds you will
79
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:11,320
be conscious and aware of
Seraphic instructors, but in the
80
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,280
first life, men and women are
usually unaware of them.
81
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:20,280
Seraphim function as teachers of
men by guiding the footsteps of
82
00:05:20,280 --> 00:05:23,800
the human personality into paths
of new and progressive
83
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,920
experiences.
To accept the guidance of a
84
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,600
seraphim rarely, rarely means
attaining a life of ease.
85
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:35,600
In following this leading, you
are sure to be to encounter and
86
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:39,040
if you have the courage to
traverse the rugged hills of
87
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,960
moral choosing and spiritual
progress.
88
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:47,000
So here it delineates that a
challenging life is a life that
89
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:48,720
teaches you your greatest
lessons.
90
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:54,600
A life of ease does not.
The impulse of worship largely
91
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:58,360
originates in the spirit
promptings of the higher mind
92
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,680
adjutants reinforced by the
leading of the adjuster.
93
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,200
Many times you've been taking a
walk and you notice a
94
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,320
particularly beautiful sunset
and it maybe gives you the
95
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:14,720
desire to give thanks that maybe
the Seraphima nearby who was
96
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,640
calling her attention in some
way.
97
00:06:18,280 --> 00:06:21,240
But the urge to pray so often
experienced by God conscious
98
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:25,480
mortals very often arises as a
result of seraphic influence.
99
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,840
The Guardian Seraphim is
constantly manipulating the
100
00:06:29,840 --> 00:06:33,440
mortal environment for the
purpose of augmenting the cosmic
101
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:37,920
insight of the human ascender to
the end that such a survival
102
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:41,960
candidate may acquire enhanced
realization of the presence of
103
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:45,720
the indwelling and gesture
spirit, and thus be enabled to
104
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:49,440
yield increased cooperation with
the spirit mission of the Divine
105
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:53,120
Presence.
While there is apparently no
106
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:56,200
communication between the
indwelling fragment, the
107
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,680
Adjuster, and the encompassing
Seraphim, they always seem to
108
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,120
work in perfect harmony and
exquisite accord.
109
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,640
The guardians are most active at
those times when the ingestors
110
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:12,040
are least active, but their
ministry is in some manner
111
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:17,560
strangely correlated.
Such superb cooperation could
112
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,360
hardly be accidental or
incidental.
113
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:25,000
The ministering personality of
the guardian seraphim, the God
114
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:29,040
presence of the indwelling
adjuster, the encircuited action
115
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,760
of the Holy Spirit, and the sun
consciousness of the Spirit of
116
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,600
truth are all divinely
correlated into a meaningful
117
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:41,240
unity of spiritual ministry in
and to a mortal personality.
118
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,680
Though hailing from different
sources at different levels and
119
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:49,520
at different levels, these
celestial influences are all
120
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:54,640
integrated in the enveloping and
evolving presence of the Supreme
121
00:07:54,640 --> 00:08:01,240
Being.
In Paper 113, Section 5, we read
122
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,400
about the seraphic ministry to
mortals.
123
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,200
Angels do not invade the
sanctity of the human mind.
124
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,400
They do not manipulate the will
of mortals.
125
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:14,840
Neither do they directly contact
with the indwelling adjusters.
126
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,880
The guardian of destiny
influences you in every possible
127
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:22,440
manner consistent with the
dignity of your personality.
128
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:27,280
Under no circumstances do these
angels interfere with the free
129
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:31,040
action of the human will.
Neither angels, nor any other
130
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:35,840
order of universe personality
have power to or authority to
131
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:40,120
curtail or abridge the
prerogatives of human choosing.
132
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:46,640
Angels are so near you, and care
so feelingly for you, that they
133
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:51,160
figuratively quote weep because
of your willful intolerance and
134
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:52,720
stubbornness.
End Quote.
135
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:56,320
Seraphim do not shed physical
tears.
136
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,800
They do not have physical
bodies, neither do they possess
137
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:03,800
wings, but they do have
spiritual emotions, and they do
138
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:07,240
experience feelings and
sentiments of a spiritual
139
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:10,920
nature, which are in certain
ways comparable to human
140
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:14,560
emotions.
The Seraphim act on your behalf
141
00:09:14,560 --> 00:09:16,760
quite independent of your direct
appeals.
142
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:21,320
They are executing the mandates
of their superiors, and thus
143
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:25,600
they function regardless of your
passing whims or changing moods.
144
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:30,000
This does not imply that you may
not make their task either
145
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:33,440
easier or more difficult, but
rather that angels are not
146
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:37,520
directly concerned with your
appeals or with your prayers in
147
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,840
the life of the flesh.
The intelligence of angels is
148
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:41,840
not directly available to mortal
men.
149
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:46,640
They are not overlords or
directors, they are simply
150
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,800
guardians.
The Seraphim guard you.
151
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,840
They do not seek directly to
influence you.
152
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:57,440
You must chart your own course,
but these angels then act to
153
00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:01,280
make the best possible use of
the course you have chosen.
154
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,680
They do not ordinarily or
arbitrarily intervene in the
155
00:10:05,680 --> 00:10:09,280
routine affairs of human life,
but when they receive
156
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,280
instructions from their
superiors to perform some
157
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:16,400
unusual exploit, you may rest
assured that these guardians
158
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,760
will find some means of carrying
out these mandates.
159
00:10:20,560 --> 00:10:24,240
They do not, therefore, intrude
into the picture of human drama,
160
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:28,640
except in emergencies and then
usually on the direct orders of
161
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:32,240
their superiors.
They are beings who are going to
162
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,960
follow you for many an age, and
they are thus receiving an
163
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,240
introduction to their future
work and personality
164
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:42,320
association.
It's interesting because they'll
165
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:46,200
they'll learn to work with us in
this life, and then the same
166
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:49,560
seraphim will be with us in the
next life and the next working
167
00:10:49,560 --> 00:10:52,000
with us, becoming our best
friends, really.
168
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:56,240
I mean, they really are our best
friends and we we're not even
169
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,480
conscious of them in this life.
But rest assured, in the next
170
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:03,560
life you'll have the opportunity
not only thank them, but to help
171
00:11:03,560 --> 00:11:05,920
them.
Final paragraph from this
172
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,920
section or this paper.
Seraphim are able to function as
173
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,720
material ministers to human
beings under certain
174
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:16,840
circumstances, but their actions
in this capacity is very rare.
175
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,960
They are able, with the
assistance of the midway
176
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:23,880
creatures and the physical
controllers, to function in a
177
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:29,120
wide range of activities in
behalf of human beings, even to
178
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,720
make actual contact with
mankind.
179
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,960
But such occurrences are very
unusual.
180
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:39,080
In most instances, the
circumstances of the material
181
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:43,240
realm proceed unaltered by
seraphic action, although
182
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:47,800
occasions have arisen involving
jeopardy to vital links in the
183
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:51,480
chain of human evolution in
which seraphic guardians have
184
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:55,160
acted and properly on their own
initiative.
185
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:58,800
Section 6.
Guardian Angels after death,
186
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,360
having told you something of the
Ministry of the Seraphim during
187
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:06,400
natural life, I will endeavor to
inform you about the conduct of
188
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:10,120
the guardians of destiny at the
time of the mortal dissolution
189
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:15,160
of their human associates.
Upon your death, your records,
190
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:19,560
identity specifications, and the
Morontia entity of the human
191
00:12:19,560 --> 00:12:23,600
soul conjointly evolved by the
Ministry of mortal Mind and the
192
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,920
divine Spirit fragment, the
Adjuster are faithfully
193
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,360
conserved by the destiny
Guardians, together with all
194
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,080
other values related to your
future existence.
195
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:37,800
Everything that constitutes you,
the real you, except the
196
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:42,160
identity of continuing existence
represented by the departing
197
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,960
spirit fragment and the actual
and the actuality of
198
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,640
personality.
The instant the pile of light in
199
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:52,040
the human mind disappears, the
spirit luminosity, which
200
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,800
Seraphim associate with the
presence of the spirit fragment
201
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:58,120
Adjuster, the attending Angel
reports in person to the
202
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:02,480
commanding angels successively
of the Group Company, Battalion,
203
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,840
Unit, Legion and Host.
And after being duly registered
204
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:09,360
for the final adventure of time
and Space, such an Angel
205
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:13,840
receives certification by the
planetary chief of Seraphim for
206
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:17,440
reporting to the Evening Star or
other Lieutenant of Gabriel.
207
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:20,760
They have to work through a a
chain of command.
208
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,160
It's it's very much like the
military the way they have
209
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,200
angels set up.
If you notice these are words
210
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:29,520
that you might find associated
like military service because
211
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:33,640
you have group, company,
battalion, unit, legion and
212
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,960
host.
And these all represent varying
213
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,760
degrees of angelic levels
really.
214
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:43,280
And with these varying levels
comes responsibility and
215
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:46,400
authority.
I go into great detail on this
216
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,240
in my first book.
And finally it says, And upon
217
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:53,080
being granted permission of from
the commander of this highest
218
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:57,040
organizational unit, such a
guardian of destiny proceeds to
219
00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:00,320
the first mansion world.
And there awaits the conscious
220
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:02,720
sizing of her former ward in the
flesh.
221
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:07,160
That would be you and me.
So in paper 14, which is the
222
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,320
subsequent paper to the one
we've just been reading, it
223
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,280
reads in the very beginning of
as to what we're talking about
224
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:17,800
here, in terms of sheer numbers,
the most highs rule in the
225
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:22,320
kingdoms of men through many
celestial forces and agencies,
226
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,040
but chiefly through the ministry
of Seraphim.
227
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:30,240
At noon today, the roll call of
planetary Angels, Guardians, and
228
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:40,080
others on our world, Urantia was
501,234,619 pairs of Seraphim,
229
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:44,080
this writer of this particular
paper writes There were assigned
230
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:49,960
to my command 200.
Seraphic hosts 597,000,000,
231
00:14:50,320 --> 00:15:01,080
196,800 pairs of Seraphim, or
1.194 billion, 393,600
232
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:05,080
individual angels, so that's
about almost one seventh of the
233
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:07,840
human population, they go on to
say.
234
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:12,760
The registry, however, shows
1.002 billion individuals
235
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:17,960
registered, but 191,000,000
angels were absent from this
236
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:21,760
world on different forms of
duty, including transport,
237
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:27,520
messenger and death duty.
And then it paraphrases on
238
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:30,880
Urantia, there are about the
same number of cherubim as
239
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:34,080
seraphim, and they are similarly
organized.
240
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:37,720
So they're saying we have not
only over a billion seraphim,
241
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,120
but we also have a billion
cherubim.
242
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:44,040
Seraphim and their associated
cherubim have much to do with
243
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:47,400
the details of the superhuman
government of a planet,
244
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,760
especially of worlds which have
been isolated by rebellion.
245
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:55,160
The angels, ably assisted by the
midwayers, function on Urantia
246
00:15:55,160 --> 00:16:00,600
as an actual super material
ministry who execute the
247
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,760
mandates of the resident
Governor General and all the
248
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:08,960
associates and subordinates.
Most definitely the most highest
249
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:12,840
rule in the kingdoms of men.
And there is a good example of
250
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,880
the depth that the Urania book
provides.
251
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,960
We learn all about the angels in
our own religious upbringing,
252
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:22,800
but the Urania book takes it a
step further and goes into much
253
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:27,400
more specificity as to what
these angels do and why, and
254
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:31,120
also where they come from and
how they are assembled and how
255
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,960
they are divided for labor.
And that concludes this
256
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:37,560
particular chapter.
We may continue on and get into
257
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,280
some of the more specifics.
I'd like to hear from you if
258
00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:43,520
you've got a topic or a subject.
If you want to know about the
259
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:46,360
Urantia book, we really love
hearing from you.
260
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:50,400
I got a suggestion a few weeks
ago about the resurrection and I
261
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,960
wanted to talk about that, but
that led me to the what I felt
262
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,760
was the more timely issue of
paper 113 of the Guardian
263
00:16:57,760 --> 00:16:59,840
Angels.
So I hope you enjoyed it and I
264
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:01,560
look forward to our next getting
together.
265
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:05,680
