Ratings and reviews

The Urantia Book is the book you have been hoping to find. It was completed in 1935 and first published in 1955 by Urantia Foundation. This book is educational in that it provides information about the origin, history, and destiny of mankind and this planet we live on. It explains our life as cosmic citizens in the grand universe of universes. Think about this: we are not just citizens of our local city, state, and country but citizens of everything you see when you look up at night. It is spiritual in that it details who God is and what He is. This book answers many of our most profound questions and clarifies much of the confusion that exists about who we are and what we are and why we are. The celestial beings discussed in this book are not aliens flying around in UFO’s but rather the Angels and spiritual beings that we know and feel all around us. We learn about them in all our various faiths and religions. The Urantia Book reveals the truth about these beings and their relationship with us. This book is richly detailed with scientific and historical information that integrates science and religion. Science is the study of Gods material creation. Religion is the study of Gods Spiritual creation. This book reveals in great detail the Fatherhood of God and the resulting brotherhood of man. If God is the Father of all then we are all brothers and sisters and should treat each other as such. The Urantia Book teaches friendship with God. This book will not replace your current religion nor is it meant to but it will uplift the religion you have or give you one if you don’t. Do not fear this book. Read it and then talk to others who have read it. Join a study group or attend one of the many readership events around the world. Two of my favorite quotes from the book: “There is in the mind of God a plan which embraces every creature of all his vast domains, and this plan is an eternal purpose of boundless opportunity, unlimited progress, and endless life. And the treasures of such a matchless career are yours for the striving!” “Having started out on the way of life everlasting, having accepted the assignment and received your orders to advance, do not fear the dangers of human forgetfulness and mortal inconstancy, do not be troubled with doubts of failure or by perplexing confusion, do not falter and question your status and standing, for in every dark hour, at every crossroad in the forward struggle, the Spirit of Truth will always speak, saying ‘This is the way.’”

All domestic (1983, by US Court Jury) and international (2006) copyrights on this book are expired. It is wrong to be charging for this book. It is legally classified as a "public domain" work in the United States. This needs to be corrected IMMEDIATELY.

The Urantia Book is truly devine! I know now that I've looked for this revelation from childhood. From a kid, I always knew there was more truth out there and I sought to find that truth. This book is the best thing that ever happened to me. God is so beautiful! Everything!.. The stories of Adam and Eve are convincing and more complete and logical than the bible. It puts the bible in perspective. Everything adds up in this book. The book is right beside me as I speak. I love it! It has taken me to another level of existence. Enlightened!.. I thank you and Love you Eternal Father for such a blessing. In Jesus's name, amen.
