This week we continue our study of Paper 6 - The Eternal Son. We will be studying Section 3. Ministry of the Father's Love, and Section 4. Attributes of the Eternal Son.
Paper 6 of The Urantia Book is about the Eternal Son, who is the second person of the Paradise Trinity and the perfect expression of the Universal Father. The paper describes the identity, nature, attributes, and functions of the Eternal Son, as well as his relation to the other members of the Trinity and the creation. The paper also explains the origin and ministry of the various orders of the Paradise Sons of God, who are the offspring of the Eternal Son and his associates. The paper concludes with a discussion of the Paradise Sons of God as the revealers of the Father’s love and the upholders of his justice in the universes of time and space.
Consider these statements from Sections 3 and 4 of Paper 6.
6:3.1.The Son shares the justice and righteousness of the Trinity but overshadows these divinity traits by the infinite personalization of the Father's love and mercy; the Son is the revelation of divine love to the universes. As God is love, so the Son is mercy.
6:3.2.The Eternal Son is the great mercy minister to all creation. Mercy is the essence of the Son's spiritual character. The mandates of the Eternal Son, as they go forth over the spirit circuits of the Second Source and Center, are keyed in tones of mercy.
6:4.7.The Original Son is universally and spiritually self-conscious. In wisdom the Son is the full equal of the Father. In the realms of knowledge, omniscience, we cannot distinguish between the First and Second Sources; like the Father, the Son knows all; he is never surprised by any universe event; he comprehends the end from the beginning.
We hope you can join us for another deep dive into The Urantia Book, and a comprehensive study on The Eternal Son.
