- 0:19Welcome back to another edition of the Urantia Radio Podcast.
- 0:22My name is Jim. I'm a long time reader and
- 0:24producer and writer for this podcast that I've been doing now
- 0:27for seven, almost seven years. And we talk about the fifth
- 0:31epical revelation, because it matters.
- 0:33We're talking about a significant book, the Urantia
- 0:36book that pulls the curtain back on all aspects of reality,
- 0:41including our own Earth history, the beginnings of, of the
- 0:45universe and so, so much more. And also what we can count on in
- 0:49the future, what's in store for humanity both personally and
- 0:55collectively. And we've been doing a a fair
- 0:58number of episodes on different personalities that you'll find
- 1:02in the Urantia book. We've covered Noah, Melchizedek,
- 1:05a few others. And I'm open to suggestions from
- 1:08you as well. If you've got someone you think
- 1:10we should showcase, let me know. Just e-mail me at
- 1:14urantiabookradio@gmail.com. And I want to get into Emmanuel
- 1:19in this episode, the brother of Christ, the elder brother of
- 1:23Christ. So let me read to you a little
- 1:26bit some excerpts from primarily paper 33 and 43 that explains
- 1:32the administration of the universe.
- 1:35So from Paper 33 we read that at the head of the Paradise Group
- 1:39in Nebadon is the ambassador of the Paradise Trinity Emmanuel of
- 1:43Salvington, otherwise known as the Union of Days, the Union of
- 1:49days assigned to the local universe in Nebadon.
- 1:52And a certain sense. This, my Trinity Son, is also
- 1:56the personal representative of the Universal Father to the
- 1:59Court of the Creator Son, hence his name.
- 2:03Emmanuel Emmanuel of Salvington is of the 6th Order of the
- 2:10Supreme Trinity Personalities and is a being of sublime
- 2:14dignity and of such superb condescension that he refuses
- 2:19the worship and adoration of all living creatures.
- 2:24At such times, Gabriel always seeks the counsel of Emmanuel of
- 2:28Salvington regarding all major problems.
- 2:33Now from Paper 43, as Emmanuel is a union of days, there's
- 2:39another order of Days and they are known as the Faithful of
- 2:42Days. And we read that the Faithful of
- 2:45Days is a designation of a Trinity, Son of Paradise, and
- 2:49has been present on Edensia as the personal representative of
- 2:54Emmanuel since the creation of the headquarters world.
- 2:59Ever the Faithful of Days stands at the right hand of the
- 3:01Constellation fathers to counsel them, but never does he proffer
- 3:06advice unless it is asked for. And we know from the Urantia
- 3:11book that Edensia is the capital sphere of the constellation of
- 3:17100,000 worlds, makes up a constellation and these faithful
- 3:22days are representatives of the Trinity to those 100,000 worlds.
- 3:30Now from Paper 53 we learn in regard to the Lucifer Rebellion
- 3:37that Lucifer openly defied and arrogantly challenged Michael
- 3:41Emmanuel and the Ancients of Days in his manifesto and then
- 3:47points to the fact that no action on the part of these high
- 3:51personalities presents evidence of the impotency of the universe
- 3:57and the Super universe government.
- 3:58So when the Lucifer Rebellion broke out, he had directly
- 4:04challenged the authority of Michael Emmanuel and the
- 4:09Ancients of Days and said that because they allowed him to
- 4:15openly defy them without any consequence, that that just
- 4:19proved that they were impotent. Well, that was a long time ago
- 4:24and a lot has changed. In Paper 53 we read that upon
- 4:28the outbreak of the Satania Rebellion, Michael took counsel
- 4:32of his Paradise brother Emmanuel.
- 4:35Following this momentous conference, Michael announced
- 4:38that he would pursue the same policy which had characterized
- 4:42his dealings with similar upheavals in the past.
- 4:46An attitude of non interference. He mentions that he had dealt
- 4:51with the same issue in his second bestowal, the earth
- 4:56bestowal. As Jesus was his 7th and the 2nd
- 4:59bestowal. He actually took the form of a
- 5:04system sovereign and took out the rebellious land and andex
- 5:08sign of another system. Latentia was the rebel leader of
- 5:13another outbreak against the authority of Michael and
- 5:18paradise. So you can start to see that
- 5:23there's a real social order that's going on in the heavens.
- 5:27You've got representatives from the Paradise Trinity, Oh, God
- 5:32the Father, God the Son, God the Spirit, and you have creator
- 5:36sons, you have Melchizedek sons. There's a certain hierarchy
- 5:40depending on where they sit with regard to authority and
- 5:43dominion. It's quite fascinating really.
- 5:47And Emmanuel was with us and supported Michael during the
- 5:52outbreak as that counselor from the Trinity, advising him on the
- 5:57best way. Because from Michael's point of
- 5:59view, Lucifer is his, is his son in the hierarchy of of the
- 6:04personalities of the universe. Michael is a creator son, the
- 6:07highest level of sonship between him and the Father Lucifer is a
- 6:15product of. And we've talked about that
- 6:18before in the in the parallel of the human experience.
- 6:22How many of us fathers have had to deal with an erring son?
- 6:27And you can't judge your own child.
- 6:29And it's why that Jesus said to Lucifer on Mount Hermon during
- 6:34the great temptation, he says, I cannot judge you.
- 6:38I'm your brother, I'm your father.
- 6:41But those that can and he was referring specifically to the
- 6:44ancients of days and he said to Lucifer, I rebuke you, but I
- 6:50hope that they have mercy on your your soul.
- 6:55Paper 119 and the bestowals of Christ, Michael.
- 7:00It was a solemn occasion on Salvington almost 1 billion
- 7:04years ago, when the assembled directors and chiefs of the
- 7:07universe of Nebadon heard Michael announce that his elder
- 7:11brother Emmanuel would presently assume authority in Nebadon,
- 7:14while he, Michael, would be absent on an unexplained
- 7:19mission. No other announcement was made
- 7:22about this transaction except that the farewell broadcast to
- 7:25the Constellation Fathers, among other instructions, said Quote.
- 7:30And for this period I place you under the care and keeping of
- 7:34Emmanuel while I go about doing the bidding of my Paradise
- 7:39Father. Paper 119.
- 7:43That tells us that Emmanuel and the divine Minister, the Christ
- 7:47Michaels of significant other, they knew what he was doing.
- 7:53He was incarnating as a lower form of His own creation.
- 7:58And the only other individual who knew of this was Gabriel.
- 8:02Very tight group of people. There.
- 8:06He was accompanied by a solitary omniophone who bore credentials
- 8:10from Uversa and presented orders addressed to the chief and
- 8:15derived from the ancients of days, and concurred by the by
- 8:19Emmanuel of Salvington that Michael would appear as a
- 8:23Melchizedek son and be received into their order and was
- 8:28assigned to emergency service of the Melchizedeks of Nebadon.
- 8:33Again, the point of this is the highlight of Emmanuel as a
- 8:38supportive counselor, someone who represents the Trinity and
- 8:43ambassador of the Trinity to all the world of time and space here
- 8:48in Nebadon. And he's referred to several
- 8:52times in scripture. Even a short discourse on
- 8:57Wikipedia shows that he's deeply entrenched into the religious
- 9:01culture of our world. So I thought it would be worth a
- 9:05little bit of acknowledgement to think about Emmanuel, his
- 9:11position in all of this, because the universe is, is orderly and
- 9:16orderly requires administration. And Emmanuel is, represents that
- 9:21aspect of the universal law, the, the, the law of the
- 9:26universe. And that's it for this
- 9:31particular episode. But I do want to invite you to
- 9:34come back for the next episode because we're going to take on a
- 9:37subject that is on the minds of a lot of people in the Rancho
- 9:40Book community. We're going to talk about Steps
- 9:44Forward, over 500 study groups around the world, publications,
- 9:50music videos, movies, CFU and what they're doing.
- 9:55The Center for Unity. All these different groups now
- 9:58are sort of at the end of that first stage of, of the
- 10:02Revelations 1st 100 years. And where do we go from here?
- 10:07So the next episode we're going to look at the pros and cons of
- 10:13what kind of growth and what kind of progress do we want to
- 10:16make, what we expect to make. So we'll have a a few people on
- 10:19the program to discuss that very fact.
- 10:22So if you're interested in what is next for the Urantia Movement
- 10:27or the Urantia book, then I'd invite you to join me on the
- 10:30next episode. Until then, thank you again for
- 10:33joining me on this edition of the Urantia Radio Podcast.
- 11:39None.
