  • Urantia Paper 16. The Seven Master Spirits - Section 1. Relation to Triune Deity
    Sep 22 2025
    On this episode of The Cosmic Citizen we embark on the study of a new Urantia Paper, Paper 16. The Seven Master Spirits.

    We discover the Infinite Spirit’s supreme expression of divine diversity with a dive into this paper’s Preamble and a reading and discussion of Section 1. Relation to Triune Deity.

    We learn that these sevenfold personalities mirror the associative possibilities of the Universal Father, Eternal Son, and Infinite Spirit, and discover how these mighty beings shape the universe’s spiritual architecture with the living dynamics of the Triune God.

    This discussion opens a cosmic lens on divine coordination, spiritual supervision, and the architecture of reality itself.

    We hope you enjoy another rich dialogue intended to bridge revelation with personal insight.

  • Special Edition: Author JJ Johnson - Exploring the Urantia Revelation – Bridging Science and Spirit with the Truth of Reality!
    Sep 15 2025
    This Week on The Cosmic Citizen we interviewed special guest, JJ Johnson, on the release of his new book: Exploring the Urantia Revelation–Bridging Science and Spirit With The Truth of Reality!
    From the author:

    Says JJ, "For centuries, science and religion have seemed locked in conflict—two ways of understanding reality that often appear irreconcilable. But my decades of study and personal journey with The Urantia Book have shown me that this divide is not inevitable. Rather, it arises because humanity has lacked a comprehensive revelation—one that can harmonize scientific truth and spiritual insight in a unified understanding of reality.My new book, Exploring the Urantia Revelation (Simon & Schuster, 2025), offers just that: a path that bridges this divide through epochal revelation based on the truth of reality.

    Throughout my global travels and diplomatic career, I witnessed how people everywhere hunger for meaning beyond material success or cultural dogma. My personal quest found completion and coherence in the Urantia revelation. This book is a reflection of fifty years of study and real-world experience that brings together hard science and heartfelt faith into a single, elegant narrative.Exploring the Urantia Revelation is more than history or theology—it is a living, breathing map for navigating the profound mysteries of existence. It combines scientific revelation, spiritual depth, and a deeply personal journey that I share candidly throughout the book.If you believe truth should unite rather than divide, this new revelation invites you to explore a coordinated vision of life’s greatest questions. Only through such revelation can humanity bridge the ancient chasm between science and religion, gaining a clearer picture of the truth of reality itself."

  • Urantia Paper 15—The Seven Superuniverses—§13, The Sector Governments & §14, Purposes of the Seven Superuniverses
    Sep 8 2025
    Urantia Paper 15—The Seven Superuniverses—§13, The Sector Governments & §14, Purposes of the Seven Superuniverses

    The Cosmic Citizen: Divine Administration & Superuniverse Purpose
    In this episode, we hope to complete our study of Urantia Paper 15, "The Seven Superuniverses." We will explore the majestic intent of the grand universe, as revealed in this wonderful paper, with a reading and discussion of Section 13. The Sector Governments, and Section 14, "Purposes of the Seven Superuniverses."

    First, we journey through the layered governance of the superuniverses with Section 13, where divine administrators known as the Perfections of Days and Recents of Days oversee vast sectors of creation. These celestial governments are not merely bureaucratic; they are educational and formative, guiding ascending souls through intellectual training and physical coordination across billions of inhabited worlds.

    Then, we will shift from structure to meaning in Section 14, where the seven superuniverses are revealed to embody distinct evolutionary purposes. Each superuniverse contributes uniquely to the unfolding of the Supreme Being, with Orvonton (our own superuniverse) serving as the radiant example of mercy, patience, and experiential love.
    These sections invite us to contemplate the spiritual significance of cosmic diversity and the divine intention behind our universe’s design.

    Join us as we reflect on how these celestial patterns mirror our own soul-journey, and how understanding the divine administration of the cosmos can deepen our sense of spiritual citizenship and planetary purpose.
