By the presentation and statement indicating “the Gospel OF Jesus - the Jesusonian religion –“, has now been changed to the “the religion of Jesus”, whereby it can be assumed that “the Gospel OF Jesus” is a “Religion”. However, it can be better a likened to the theological philosophies of Jesus, as from the transcripts presented of His life. Therefore, by various presentations, presented it might be assumed that “Jesus” should be “worshiped” as “All religions teach the worship of Deity”, however I have found no mention that “Jesus” considered Himself anything other than a Son of the Father, who was “God”, and refrained from proclaiming Himself as “Deity”, to be worshiped.
Quote:
(67.3) 5:4.5 All religions teach the worship of Deity and some doctrine of human salvation. The Buddhist religion promises salvation from suffering, unending peace; the Jewish religion promises salvation from difficulties, prosperity predicated on righteousness; the Greek religion promised salvation from disharmony, ugliness, by the realization of beauty; Christianity promises salvation from sin, sanctity; Mohammedanism provides deliverance from the rigorous moral standards of Judaism and Christianity. The religion of Jesus is salvation from self, deliverance from the evils of creature isolation in time and in eternity.
“The religion of Jesus”, is not an established “religion” to be proclaimed as a social doctrine, but to be “lived” through “spiritual experience” which can be shared by anyone, and can be emulated through the example of “Jesus’” life as recorded in many texts, not just one specific narration.
Quote:
(966.1) 87:7.6 Regardless of the drawbacks and handicaps, every new revelation of truth has given rise to a new cult, and even the restatement of the religion of Jesus must develop a new and appropriate symbolism. Modern man must find some adequate symbolism for his new and expanding ideas, ideals, and loyalties. This enhanced symbol must arise out of religious living, spiritual experience. And this higher symbolism of a higher civilization must be predicated on the concept of the Fatherhood of God and be pregnant with the mighty ideal of the brotherhood of man.
“The Gospel of Jesus” can be localized into one statement, as indicated below, and needs little more than this one statement, which has no mention of an organized religion other than Jesus’ “personal gospel: the Fatherhood of God and the universal brotherhood of all men.”
Quote:
(1084.9) 98:7.11 As the original teachings of Jesus penetrated the Occident, they became Occidentalized, and as they became Occidentalized, they began to lose their potentially universal appeal to all races and kinds of men. Christianity, today, has become a religion well adapted to the social, economic, and political mores of the white races. It has long since ceased to be the religion of Jesus, although it still valiantly portrays a beautiful religion about Jesus to such individuals as sincerely seek to follow in the way of its teaching. It has glorified Jesus as the Christ, the Messianic anointed one from God, but has largely forgotten the Master’s personal gospel: the Fatherhood of God and the universal brotherhood of all men.
The “primal cause” is “the Fatherhood of God” and that “love” is the understanding of “brotherly love” to all.
Quote:
(47.1) 3:2.3 Of all the divine attributes, his omnipotence, especially as it prevails in the material universe, is the best understood. Viewed as an unspiritual phenomenon, God is energy. This declaration of physical fact is predicated on the incomprehensible truth that the First Source and Center is the primal cause of the universal physical phenomena of all space. From this divine activity all physical energy and other material manifestations are derived. Light, that is, light without heat, is another of the nonspiritual manifestations of the Deities. And there is still another form of nonspiritual energy which is virtually unknown on Urantia; it is as yet unrecognized.
Quote:
(481.5) 42:11.1 In the evaluation and recognition of mind it should be remembered that the universe is neither mechanical nor magical; it is a creation of mind and a mechanism of law. But while in practical application the laws of nature operate in what seems to be the dual realms of the physical and the spiritual, in reality they are one. The First Source and Center is the primal cause of all materialization and at the same time the first and final Father of all spirits. The Paradise Father appears personally in the extra-Havona universes only as pure energy and pure spirit — as the Thought Adjusters and other similar fragmentations.
Quote:
(644.7) 56:9.5 As creature minds may view this problem, they are led to the final postulate of the Universal I AM as the primal cause and the unqualified source of both the Trinity and the Absolute. When, therefore, we crave to entertain a personal concept of the Absolute, we revert to our ideas and ideals of the Paradise Father. When we desire to facilitate comprehension or to augment consciousness of this otherwise impersonal Absolute, we revert to the fact that the Universal Father is the existential Father of absolute personality; the Eternal Son is the Absolute Person, though not, in the experiential sense, the personalization of the Absolute. And then we go on to envisage the experiential Trinities as culminating in the experiential personalization of the Deity Absolute, while conceiving the Universal Absolute as constituting the universe and the extrauniverse phenomena of the manifest presence of the impersonal activities of the unified and co-ordinated Deity associations of supremacy, ultimacy, and infinity — the Trinity of Trinities.
Quote:
(1147.11) 104:4.1 In attempting the description of seven triunities, attention is directed to the fact that the Universal Father is the primal member of each. He is, was, and ever will be: the First Universal Father-Source, Absolute Center, Primal Cause, Universal Controller, Limitless Energizer, Original Unity, Unqualified Upholder, First Person of Deity, Primal Cosmic Pattern, and Essence of Infinity. The Universal Father is the personal cause of the Absolutes; he is the absolute of Absolutes.
(1148.1) 104:4.2 The nature and meaning of the seven triunities may be suggested as:
(1148.2) 104:4.3 The First Triunity — the personal-purposive triunity. This is the grouping of the three Deity personalities:
(1148.3) 104:4.4 1. The Universal Father.
(1148.4) 104:4.5 2. The Eternal Son.
(1148.5) 104:4.6 3. The Infinite Spirit.
