Giving As Jesus Gave: Giving The Gifts Of Truth, Beauty and Goodness

This week we'll explore the most precious gifts giving to humanity by Jesus with a reading of two amazing sections from the Urantia Book, Paper 100: Section 7 - The Acme of Religious Living and Paper 171: Section 7 - As Jesus Passed By.

Here is a preview:

• Jesus spread good cheer everywhere he went. He was full of grace and truth.
• Jesus really understood men; therefore could he manifest genuine sympathy and show sincere compassion.
• Jesus could help men so much because he loved them so sincerely. He truly loved each man, each woman, and each child.
• Jesus was never in a hurry. He had time to comfort his fellow men "as he passed by."
• When he smiled on a man, that mortal experienced increased capacity for solving his manifold problems.
• He frequently set out to help a person by asking for help.
• Great things happened not only because people had faith in Jesus, but also because Jesus had so much faith in them.
• It was literally true, "He went about doing good."
• He lived the truth, even as he taught it. He was the truth
• Jesus was an unusually cheerful person... His constant word of exhortation was, "Be of good cheer."
• The Master was always generous. He never grew weary of saying, "It is more blessed to give than to receive." Said he, "Freely you have received, freely give."
• Jesus was great because he was good, and yet he fraternized with the little children.
• Jesus was the perfectly unified human personality. And today, as in Galilee, he continues to unify mortal experience and to co-ordinate human endeavors
