The Ministry of Archangels and Seraphim

1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,560
Welcome to another edition of
the Rancher Radio Podcast.

2
00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:05,800
I'm your host Jim Watkins,
longtime reader and student of

3
00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:09,080
the 5th epical Revelation, and
we have a lot to catch up on.

4
00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:11,640
I hope you enjoyed the.
Last episode Which?

5
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,520
Talks about one group of sons of
God.

6
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:19,160
Whose job it is is to.
Transform that energy catalyst

7
00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:21,080
into life it.
Addresses a lot.

8
00:00:21,080 --> 00:00:24,440
Of the scientific quandaries.
Of just how?

9
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:27,520
DNA and the complexities of
living organisms.

10
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:30,880
Could have possibly.
Have been designed much less

11
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:33,920
appeared spontaneously and it's
something that scientists.

12
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:37,400
Are absolutely boggled with.
Well, the Urantia book.

13
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:39,680
Tells the story of the life.
Carrier Sons.

14
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,680
And that's just one aspect.
Of the spiritual.

15
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:44,040
Family of the.
Creator.

16
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,680
And next we're going to get into
or two more groups of high

17
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:52,160
spirit personalities, not only
the archangels and Seraphim,

18
00:00:52,160 --> 00:00:55,320
angels in general, and talk
about their natures.

19
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:57,720
O, we'll get to all.
That lus some updates.

20
00:00:58,080 --> 00:00:59,440
Just a second here.
Hang on.

21
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,000
It's good to to be back.
Here on the Rancho Radio

22
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,960
podcast, and I appreciate your
patience in between episodes.

23
00:01:36,960 --> 00:01:40,240
It just seems like around
springtime things get busy, huh,

24
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,320
Don't they?
Just a little bit, anyway.

25
00:01:43,320 --> 00:01:44,000
It's.
Good to have.

26
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,800
You here and there's a lot of
different conversations going on

27
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,960
that I'm enjoying very much in
the rancher community.

28
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:52,160
A couple of events that are
coming up.

29
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:57,000
I know with there's a big event
going on in Texas, I think it'll

30
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:58,880
probably have.
Passed by the time you've heard

31
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:00,840
this, but.
Your Rancher book readers are

32
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:05,680
getting together, they're having
conversation with scientists and

33
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:10,520
fellow religionists, and so
that's encouraging.

34
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,760
There is a.
Resurgence, I think, within

35
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:18,000
Christianity, which in and of
itself is a good thing.

36
00:02:18,920 --> 00:02:23,040
But there is still a a, a wage,
a war, really, there is a.

37
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:29,120
War going on and I've spoken
about it a few times and the.

38
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,680
War is is.
Between really humanism exalted

39
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:34,080
humanism in this.
Idea of or?

40
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:38,280
This notion of there being an
afterlife and a continuance or

41
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,560
resurrection, yeah, believe it
or not, we're still having that

42
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:42,960
that discussion.
Now.

43
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:46,440
There are people in positions of
power, obviously, that don't

44
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,040
want us to have that discussion
they want.

45
00:02:49,640 --> 00:02:52,440
They prefer the.
Atomized human being.

46
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:56,200
The human being whose sole focus
is not on eternal.

47
00:02:56,200 --> 00:03:02,200
Realities, but.
Material pleasures and as a

48
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:06,240
consequence of that, the profit
motive in our in our world.

49
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,480
Today.
Which the Urantia book on the

50
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:13,440
one hand defends to a certain
degree, but on the other hand.

51
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:15,200
Calls it out.
For being a.

52
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:19,480
Crude way for.
Civilization to behave because

53
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,960
it does bring out the.
Worst whether?

54
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:27,120
It's in in science and
innovation technology sometimes

55
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,920
improvements that.
They do, actually.

56
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:32,720
You know we.
Get so obsessed.

57
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,600
With machines and playing in the
in the in the outer.

58
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:39,480
World that we forget.
About the inner world and I

59
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,960
think This is why and and you've
seen me do these presentations

60
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,120
on mental health and drug
addiction and all of these

61
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,960
things that are the.
Social ills of society today

62
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:52,080
there's a.
Lot of anxiety I was just

63
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,160
reading today.
About how a.

64
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,120
Majority of young people, you
know they.

65
00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:02,680
There's. 400 Different diagnosis
is now for mental illness. 400

66
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:08,560
The new diagnostic manual is
coming out, which is basically a

67
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,880
touchstone for people in mental
as well.

68
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:15,320
As physical health.
And it's chock full of all kinds

69
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:21,519
of drugs and medicines that you
can take, many of them that

70
00:04:21,519 --> 00:04:25,240
cause long term illness, long
term side effects.

71
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:30,000
Just having a discussion with
someone close to me about

72
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:36,360
someone who who feels anxious
all the time and the and the

73
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:41,760
conversation never comes up.
About the power of prayer, the

74
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,160
power of service, the power of
worship.

75
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,480
You know, my own personal
experience as a younger man,

76
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:52,000
just like many people, those mid
20 years when you're trying to

77
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,320
grapple with everything and
you're.

78
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,560
Trying to figure out which Rd.
which.

79
00:04:55,560 --> 00:05:00,120
Path you're on and it can be
very confusing and and very

80
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,080
intimidating.
And today I I would imagine it's

81
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:06,560
10 times worse, 10 times harder
to navigate.

82
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,080
Through the the.
Stormy waters of materialism as

83
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,480
well as just getting along in
society to me, a lot of those.

84
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,080
People.
That you see that are homeless

85
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:20,440
are people where the system they
they just couldn't handle it and

86
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,920
the system broke them.
Temporarily, perhaps?

87
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:27,720
Or not, but never is the
discussion about prayer and

88
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,040
worship and service.
And these are such important

89
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,600
things and they're common to.
Every great faith.

90
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:35,080
You know there was.
If you get.

91
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:38,480
The thoughts to ponder from the
Urantia Foundation Which?

92
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:43,320
Is easy to do, just go.
To the Urantia website and sign

93
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:44,760
up.
Click to follow and you'll get a

94
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:49,200
nice little statement every day
from the Urantia book and I.

95
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:53,160
I think when they first came out
is when I first started getting

96
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,800
them.
I can't remember a time when I

97
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,280
haven't gotten started.
My day with the thoughts to

98
00:05:58,280 --> 00:06:01,160
ponder and the 1 today talked.
About.

99
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,320
Jesus instructing his.
Apostles to look.

100
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:09,000
For the commonalities when
you're discussing, if you want

101
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,440
to talk about the Urantia book.
To people talk.

102
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:16,600
About the commonalities of what?
The Urantia book.

103
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,080
Is saying that is similar
because all the great religions

104
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:24,720
obviously have some commonality
and if you focus on the ones

105
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,760
that.
That we share as opposed.

106
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,960
To the new and advanced concepts
that come with the Urantia book,

107
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:36,960
it it becomes an an intellectual
discussion, not a spiritual one.

108
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,680
I mean, you can say, you know,
maybe what the world needs is

109
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:42,840
more prayer.
And I say.

110
00:06:42,840 --> 00:06:45,960
That because I read what the
Urantia book has to say about

111
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,120
prayer.
And I've experienced it.

112
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,920
Probably not enough, but I I
know it's a.

113
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:55,720
Powerful force worship.
For its own sake, having an

114
00:06:55,720 --> 00:07:00,840
understanding of prayer and
worship to me was one of the.

115
00:07:00,840 --> 00:07:03,680
Greatest gifts.
From the Urantia book because it

116
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:08,800
explains to me what each one
does and then of course when you

117
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:09,880
think.
About worship.

118
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,640
In Group form is even more.
Powerful so.

119
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:15,440
All we can really hope.
For is.

120
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:20,080
In this current age is for more
people to find and and.

121
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:25,360
Seize that power.
And it's a shame that so much of

122
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:29,440
our messaging, so much of
everything, particularly about

123
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:33,120
pain and suffering, is.
Always dealt with.

124
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:39,160
With medicine and yet we have
not learned to unlock and

125
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,040
harness.
The spiritual powers.

126
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:43,360
You know the.
Doctors would.

127
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:48,080
Rather give you something that
stimulates or calms you down the

128
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,680
good.
Doctors will tell you, try this,

129
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:55,600
try yoga, try.
And and great doctors will say

130
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:57,600
you should read the Urantia
book.

131
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:03,040
All right, so.
A couple of things I wanted to

132
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:04,960
talk about.
We may have someone on in a few

133
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:09,400
weeks that believes, and based
on what I've read I'm pretty

134
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,040
convinced as well.
That he has.

135
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,760
Found the actual home of.
Joseph Jesus's.

136
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:19,560
Father in the family and right
now I don't want to say too much

137
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:23,320
but if you're reacting the way I
am you can see that that's

138
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:27,560
pretty significant and it's for
two reasons one because the

139
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:32,760
Urantia book in its description
of Jesus home is very consistent

140
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,520
with what this gentleman has
found and in an.

141
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:40,120
Archaeological site believe.
Somewhere in Nazareth, yeah.

142
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:45,760
And based on the geographic
locations and the descriptions

143
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,640
in the Urantia book.
It corroborates what?

144
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:52,320
This man has found, and it's in
a place where we don't, you

145
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,040
know, it's not recognized as
being the home of Jesus.

146
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,760
No one really knows exactly
where the home was in Nazareth.

147
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:00,640
But this book?
The Urantia book.

148
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:04,160
Gives us such.
Detailed information and this

149
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:09,120
man says that he just literally
stumbled on this site and he's

150
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:13,880
pretty convinced that it is the
home of of our Son of God.

151
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:14,400
Our.
Our.

152
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,200
Creator son as.
Jesus.

153
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:19,560
Joshua bin Joseph.
So that should.

154
00:09:19,560 --> 00:09:22,400
Be very interesting and that
hopefully will be coming up soon

155
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,760
and if I can't interview him,
I'll at least get the

156
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:28,400
information to you it's.
Quite, quite great.

157
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:33,960
I think the other thing that I
I'm focusing on this.

158
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:38,360
Particular episode about.
Some of the family of God, and

159
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,560
what I mean by that is you know
the best way for me.

160
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:45,960
To express the great.
Truths of the Urantia book with

161
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:50,040
anybody, and I'm trying to do
this more and more, is to ask

162
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:53,000
people, do you think this entire
universe was created?

163
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:56,840
Just for us.
And also, do you think that

164
00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:00,640
everything is accidental and
without causation?

165
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:05,400
And of course any sane or common
sense based person would say,

166
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:09,000
well probably not, that would be
kind of selfish for us to think

167
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,240
that the universe was created.
Just for us.

168
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:17,200
And yeah, it would be kind of of
vanity, great vanity to believe.

169
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,400
That we're.
The only ones here and then

170
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:25,080
also, you know, it would be hard
to explain how such complex

171
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,600
organisms could could arise out
of nothing.

172
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:33,520
You know, the universe wouldn't
just spontaneously come out of

173
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:35,400
nothing.
That that, that seems

174
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:37,760
ridiculous.
That seems almost.

175
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:41,960
As ridiculous as.
Believing that Christ to some

176
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:45,720
people.
Resurrected, however, however,

177
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:49,840
it is logical to think.
That we are not the only ones

178
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:53,000
here, and that the universe does
have some.

179
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,240
Creative purpose or?
Design because there.

180
00:10:56,280 --> 00:11:00,280
Does appear to be order so that
that that's the way to.

181
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:07,040
Get in And then when we talk
about the family of God, think

182
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:12,720
of in terms of time, how long
the current present grand

183
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:17,720
universe has been in existence.
I would venture to save some,

184
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,600
perhaps somewhere a trillion
years.

185
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:25,440
Nabadon is is 997 billion years
old or something like that.

186
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:26,120
I.
Believe that.

187
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:31,000
When Christ, Michael and the
Divine Daughter of the Infinite

188
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:35,600
Spirit decided it was time.
To have their.

189
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:41,200
Creation.
That was 987 billion years ago,

190
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:44,640
according to the Urantia book.
And then we have all that time.

191
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:48,880
Before that.
And remembering now that the

192
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:54,000
completed grand universe, super
universes all came about as an

193
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,280
expression of the Trinity,
that's a.

194
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:59,280
Rough way of.
Describing it so I'm willing to

195
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:00,480
just.
Put a stake.

196
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:04,400
At at the one trillion mark.
Just just because.

197
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,480
Let's just.
Agree, because that's 999

198
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:13,160
billion years ago and, and, and
we know we're probably off the

199
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,960
mark even with that too.
But my point is that everything

200
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:23,240
before us came a long time ago,
and judging on the scope and the

201
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,920
size of the universe and the
energy contained therein, I

202
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,280
would have to.
Believe that if there is order,

203
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:33,240
as the Urantia book clearly
states that there is, that there

204
00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:37,080
would have.
Eventuated higher personalities.

205
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:42,360
Whose job it would.
Be to nourish and bring into

206
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:47,160
creation through ministry a
system inhabited by spiritual.

207
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:52,320
People or spiritual?
Made in his image and and in my.

208
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,120
Previous podcast.
That's why I went into the.

209
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:56,320
Life.
Carrier Sons.

210
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:01,080
Because they're one aspect,
they're one part of this

211
00:13:01,560 --> 00:13:05,520
wonderful family of spirit
personalities who do a lot of

212
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:09,680
things in the universe.
And many of these personalities

213
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:15,880
are are interwoven into Western
and and even Eastern Christian

214
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:23,040
religion and Judaism to a
certain degree, Islam, in fact,

215
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:23,840
the.
Farther back you.

216
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:27,280
Go, somebody said to me, The
farther back you go in time, the

217
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,360
more the religion start to look
the same.

218
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:34,320
They all start to.
Say the same story and

219
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:38,120
archangels are mentioned
numerous times, Michael the

220
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:41,880
Archangel being the most
probably the the most famous.

221
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:47,200
I drive by.
A church in Florida often and I

222
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:50,240
see it and it's Saint Michael.
And I think to myself, boy, if

223
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:53,680
they only knew who Saint Michael
is.

224
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:58,400
The Archangels are the offspring
of the Creator's Son and the

225
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:02,160
Universal Mother Spirit.
They are the highest type of

226
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,200
high.
Spirit beings produced in large

227
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:08,640
numbers in a universe and at the
time of the last.

228
00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:15,800
Registry there were. 800,000 in
a in a system of 10 million.

229
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:21,480
Worlds so. 800 thousand of these
archangels that exist in

230
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:23,720
Michael's create a creation of
Nebadon.

231
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,640
Archangels are one of the few
groups of local universe

232
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,560
personalities who are not
normally under the jurisdiction

233
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:35,200
of Gabriel.
They are not in any manner

234
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:38,120
concerned with the routine
administration of the universe,

235
00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:40,960
being dedicated instead to the.
Work of creature.

236
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:45,920
Survival and to the furtherance
of the ascending career of the

237
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:49,160
mortals of time and space.
So it is their job.

238
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:53,280
As archangels and there's
800,000 so they're spread pretty

239
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:59,520
thin and they're not ordinally
subject to the direction of

240
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:00,920
Gabriel as.
It's stated.

241
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:03,400
But they do sometimes function
by his.

242
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,440
Authority.
They also collaborate with

243
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:08,280
others.
Of the universe aids now

244
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,960
universe.
AIDS is it has several

245
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,840
different.
Orders of these spirit beings,

246
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:18,680
the ones that are most directly.
Associated with Gabriel.

247
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,400
And his administrative because
Gabriel.

248
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,040
Is like ACOO.
He's like a chief.

249
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:28,040
Operating Officer Operating.
Under Jesus Christ.

250
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:32,560
And the daughter of the Infinite
Spirit, the sponsor of the Holy

251
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:34,200
Spirit.
It's another thing that the

252
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:40,240
Urantia book denotes is that the
Holy Spirit comes from the

253
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:41,960
Infinite Spirit by way.
Of.

254
00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:45,440
Her offspring, the daughters,
the daughters of the infinite

255
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:50,440
Spirit.
And this is, in my opinion, why

256
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,440
so many people worship the
Mother Mary, because in in

257
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:57,880
essence, she becomes the symbol.
Of that spiritual.

258
00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:01,360
Love and mercy that comes from
moms.

259
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:08,240
The Archangel Core of Nabadon is
directed by the first born of

260
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:11,440
this order.
So there's there's the head of

261
00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,440
the the the.
Head of the family as far as the

262
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:19,760
children are concerned, and this
may blow.

263
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:21,720
You away but.
According to the Urantia.

264
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:25,720
Book our World.
Is the divisional headquarters

265
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:26,920
of the.
Archangels.

266
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,280
So would.
That mean that at one, maybe at

267
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,920
one time in our history, there
have been 8. 800.

268
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:36,240
Thousand of these archangels
here all at once.

269
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,880
Perhaps that's.
Something that I've not thought

270
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:42,200
about.
The Urantia book writes the

271
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,440
following.
The Archangel Corps of Nebadon

272
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:45,640
is.
Directed by the.

273
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:49,520
First born of this order and in
more recent times a divisional

274
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:53,080
headquarters of the Archangels
has been maintained on Urantia.

275
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:58,320
It is this unusual fact that
soon arrest the attention of

276
00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,200
extra Nebadon student visitors
among.

277
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:04,640
That the early.
Observations of the entry

278
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:09,240
universe transactions is the
discovery that many ascendant

279
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,280
activities of the brilliant
evening.

280
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:14,040
Stars are directed.
From the capital.

281
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:16,200
Of the local.
System which is Satania.

282
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:21,640
On further examination, they
discover that certain Archangel.

283
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:25,280
Activities are directed.
From a small and apparently

284
00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:27,800
insignificant inhabited world
called Urantia.

285
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:34,440
And then ensues the revelation
of Michael's bestowal on our

286
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:38,360
world and their immediate
quickened interest of the

287
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,920
general.
Passers by in the universe start

288
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,640
to look at our planet and they
write.

289
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:45,440
Do you?
Grasp.

290
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,480
The significance of the facts
that you're a lowly and confused

291
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,960
planet has become a divisional.
Headquarters for the.

292
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,800
Universe administration and
direction of certain Archangel

293
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:57,800
activities having to.
Do with the.

294
00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:02,480
Paradise ascension scheme.
This undoubtedly.

295
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:06,120
Presages the future.
Concentration of other ascendant

296
00:18:06,120 --> 00:18:10,200
activities on the bestow a world
of nebadon and lends a

297
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:14,440
tremendous and solemn import to
the Masters personal promise

298
00:18:15,120 --> 00:18:17,040
When Jesus said I will come
again.

299
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,040
So.
All of the sudden, you.

300
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:25,200
Start to appreciate that.
You know, as bad as things are

301
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:28,480
on our world, they they must
have really good plans for us.

302
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,320
You know one of my.
Favorite pastors?

303
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:33,920
And I know he gets critiqued.
A lot.

304
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:37,240
Because he sounds more like a
motivational speaker, which

305
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,080
there's nothing wrong with that.
But Joel Osteen often says God

306
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:43,320
has great plans for you.
If you only knew with God's

307
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,400
plans for you, you wouldn't
worry about a thing.

308
00:18:47,120 --> 00:18:49,080
And he's right.
Because we're.

309
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:52,680
Such an unusual sphere.
You know.

310
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:56,680
We're Agandon sirs, which is a
term that means those have been

311
00:18:56,680 --> 00:19:00,520
tried and tested.
And so you know that down the

312
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,720
road, down the future, you know,
you and I may be in the

313
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,720
fortunate position of having
experienced such strife.

314
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,040
That it acts.
Actually makes us more

315
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:13,760
trustworthy, more loyal to the
cause of Michael.

316
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,520
Who, of course.
Is the Son of God and the Son of

317
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:18,800
Man known on our world?
As Jesus Christ.

318
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:23,880
Do we have time?
To Yeah, let's.

319
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:27,360
See if we can get over to Paper
38 and you can come along with

320
00:19:27,360 --> 00:19:29,280
me.
Paper 38.

321
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:35,040
Section 2, which is about the
angelic natures and I've not

322
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,840
spoken a lot about the angelic
natures, but.

323
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:42,080
I'd like to they.
Deserve a mention from the

324
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:45,520
Annals of the Urantia Book.
Angels do not have material.

325
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:48,160
Bodies, it says.
But they are definite and

326
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,200
discreet beings.
They are of spirit, nature and

327
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,960
origin.
Now angels, unlike archangels,

328
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:59,080
come directly from the Daughter
of the Infinite Spirit.

329
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:05,360
The angels are the offspring,
though invisible to mortals.

330
00:20:05,360 --> 00:20:07,080
They perceive you as you.
Are in the.

331
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:10,800
Flesh without the aid of.
Transformers or translators?

332
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:12,920
Those are interesting words, by
the way.

333
00:20:13,360 --> 00:20:17,120
Transformers and translators.
I'm I'm not sure a whole lot of

334
00:20:17,120 --> 00:20:20,440
people knew what that what those
things were back in the mid 30s

335
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:23,560
when this book was written.
But the.

336
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,200
Book says they intellectually
understand the mode of mortal

337
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,760
life, and they share all of the
man's nonsensuous emotions and

338
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:32,400
sentiments.
They appreciate and greatly.

339
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,160
Enjoy your efforts and music,
art and real humor.

340
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:39,920
They are fully cognizant of your
moral struggles and spiritual.

341
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:43,640
Difficulties they love.
Human beings and only good can

342
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:47,320
result from your efforts to
understand and love them.

343
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,600
That's why they're telling us
this now.

344
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:53,280
When has it ever been told to
you in such specific literal

345
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:56,560
terms that angels?
Are your spiritual?

346
00:20:56,560 --> 00:21:02,920
Brethren, your associates in the
Spirit and they, exist to learn

347
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,240
from us and to minister.
To us.

348
00:21:06,120 --> 00:21:09,800
And to somehow get us.
To appreciate the spiritual

349
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:13,000
aspects of life.
Hence bringing us.

350
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,640
Closer to God.
Though Seraphim.

351
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,080
I'll read now.
Though Seraphim are very

352
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:22,000
affectionate and sympathetic
beings, they are not sex emotion

353
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:25,760
creatures.
They are much as you will.

354
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:27,560
Be.
On the mansion.

355
00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:30,920
Worlds where you.
Will quote neither marry nor be

356
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,200
given in marriage, but will.
Be as the.

357
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,560
Angels of Heaven.
End Quote.

358
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:40,120
For all who quote shall be.
Accounted worthy to attain the

359
00:21:40,120 --> 00:21:44,080
mansion, Worlds neither marry
nor are given in marriage,

360
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,520
neither do they die anymore.
For they are.

361
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:52,680
Equal to the angels, End Quote.
Nevertheless, in dealing with

362
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:54,080
sex creatures.
It is our.

363
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:57,880
Custom to speak of those beings
as being more direct descendants

364
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:03,440
from the Father and the sons as
the Son of God, while referring

365
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:07,040
to the children of the Spirit.
As the daughters of God.

366
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:12,040
Angels are therefore commonly
designated by feminine pronouns

367
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,680
on the sex planets, the
seraphim.

368
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,720
Are so created.
As to function on both spiritual

369
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,240
and literal levels.
There are few.

370
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,760
Phases of Morontia.
Or spirit activity.

371
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,280
Which are not open to their
administrations.

372
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:31,240
While in personal status angels
are not so far removed from

373
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:34,120
human beings, in certain
functional performances,

374
00:22:34,120 --> 00:22:36,480
seraphim are.
Are also able to.

375
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:40,120
Transcend them.
They possess many powers far

376
00:22:40,120 --> 00:22:43,760
beyond human comprehension.
For example, you've been told.

377
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:47,080
That the very hairs of your.
Head are numbered and it is

378
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:47,800
true.
They are.

379
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:51,240
But a seraphim does not spend
her time counting them and

380
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,160
keeping the number corrected and
up to date.

381
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:57,240
Angels possess inherent and
automatic.

382
00:22:57,680 --> 00:22:59,280
That is as.
Far as we're concerned,

383
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:03,040
automatic powers of knowing such
things and you would truly

384
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:06,160
regard a Seraphim as a
mathematical prodigy.

385
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,720
Therefore, numerous duties,
which would be tremendous tasks

386
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:15,080
for mortals are performed with
exceeding ease by seraphim.

387
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,560
It goes on to say that angels.
Are superior to.

388
00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:22,360
You in spiritual status, but
they are not your judges.

389
00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:24,840
Or your accusers.
No matter.

390
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,480
What your faults?
The angels, although greater in

391
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,520
power and might bring no
accusation against you.

392
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:35,440
Angels do not sit in judgement
on mankind, neither should

393
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,800
individual mortals prejudice.
Their fellow creatures.

394
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:41,560
It says you.
Do well.

395
00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:44,800
To love them.
But you should not adore them.

396
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,760
Angels are not.
Objects of worship, the Great.

397
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:53,640
Seraphim loyalacea when?
Your seer quote.

398
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:58,360
Fell down to worship before the
feet of the Angel said, See that

399
00:23:58,360 --> 00:24:02,640
you do it not I am a fellow
servant with you and.

400
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,840
With your races.
Who are all enjoined to worship?

401
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:09,000
God.
In nature and personality

402
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:10,680
endowment.
The Seraphim.

403
00:24:11,120 --> 00:24:13,520
Are just A trifle.
Ahead of mortal races and the

404
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,520
scale.
Of creature existence.

405
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:18,240
Indeed, when you are delivered
from the.

406
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:22,160
Flesh you will.
Become very much like them on

407
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,480
the mansion worlds.
You will begin to appreciate the

408
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:29,560
Seraphim on the constellation
Fears to enjoy them while on

409
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:32,960
Salvington, which is the
headquarters fear of Nebadon,

410
00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:36,640
they will.
Share their places of rest.

411
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:40,520
And worship with you throughout
the whole Marancha and

412
00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:44,600
subsequent spirit ascent your
fraternity with the Seraphim.

413
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,920
Will be ideal.
Your companionship.

414
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:51,480
Will be superb.
And so.

415
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:55,600
There's the a little.
Extra insight into just one

416
00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,440
aspect of the family of God.
Those Hyatt.

417
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,720
Spirit Personalities.
Who are also a part of.

418
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:05,880
Our Grand Universe first
ministering to us and then later

419
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:09,400
becoming true partners in the
Marancha and the Spirit

420
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:14,840
Ascendancy.
I like that story a lot it it

421
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,240
gets.
Down and deep in into it,

422
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:19,680
probably more so than most
faiths.

423
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:23,440
But it is a beautiful story.
And I really like it and that's

424
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,400
why I wanted to share it with.
You if you've got a paper.

425
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,960
Or some subject matter in the
Urantia book that you think

426
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:31,800
needs a deeper?
Dive I'd.

427
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:34,400
Love to hear from you.
I know that our listeners are

428
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,160
there, they're growing, people
are sharing the podcast.

429
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:39,720
Maybe one of these days I'll get
to.

430
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:43,000
I'll show you.
Who's listening and where?

431
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,960
And it's pretty fascinating.
They're all over the place and I

432
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:49,560
can see and since with all the
new secondary materials that are

433
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:52,200
coming out, there's great
conventions going on, the

434
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:55,040
associations doing things all
the time, the foundation

435
00:25:55,360 --> 00:25:59,480
sponsoring great events.
There's just so much more out

436
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,200
there now and and it's, you
know, it's making me feel good

437
00:26:03,120 --> 00:26:04,560
just going back to what I.
Said.

438
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:09,680
You know they have they have
plans for this planet and even

439
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:13,080
in giving us a revelation in
book form, which is not only.

440
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:14,840
Epical but.
Unique.

441
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:18,400
I'm only to bet that it's not a
path they normally take.

442
00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:21,800
But you know, desperate times
call for desperate measures,

443
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:23,400
right?
Isn't that the thing?

444
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,400
But we'll.
We'll be here again and I think

445
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:30,240
I want to get into there was
some things I wanted to talk

446
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:32,480
about in the next maybe about.
Prayer.

447
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,440
You know, we haven't gotten into
prayer and worship in a long,

448
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,640
long time, so it might be good
for us.

449
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,480
To to.
Delve into that in the next

450
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:41,360
segment.
What do you think?

451
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:45,000
You can always e-mail me.
The e-mail address is your

452
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:48,400
answer book at Gmail dot com and
I look forward to our next get

453
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:51,840
together once again, your
rancherbookradio@gmail.com.

454
00:26:52,760 --> 00:27:02,440
See you next time and God bless
and in peace until we meet

455
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:55,240
again.
The.
