0802AB (Jack)
Secondary Midwayer Jack began attempting contact in 1955; he finally got through to the receiver (to whom he was attached) in 1967. I (Gerdean) met Jack in 1968. The receiver and I were wed in 1970 and Jack became a member of our "family" until 1983 when he went with the receiver to Thailand where he seems to still be stationed. He has visited infrequently since the opening of the circuits. His field of service: Awakening the Souls of Men. According to Ham, Jack was with the Advance Corps to work with Mortals in the period prior to the inauguration of the Correcting Time, working with a mortal contact personality towards perfecting the Transmitter/ Receiver process. Jack is a no-nonsense worker for spiritual progress who has spent most of the past 20 years in Thailand and Singapore .

Abigail
Group Teacher, Salem, Oregon . "As other teachers have said, my background, which is far behind me, is not very important: but I understand your curiosity. It has been a very long time by your standards since I was a living person; but on my planet I was a grower of flowers, I worked in a garden, not a garden for vegetables but for ornamental plants. It was very beautiful, and I very much enjoyed my work and was very happy in it."

Abilenia
Midwayer.

Abraham
Director of the Teaching Mission (TM). He says, “Commanding officer is somewhat of a strong term made for mortal understanding. I co-command with my associates and fellow teachers. I receive my commands from Michael and I pass them to my associates and to you, my mortal students.”   He is the same Abraham mentioned in the Bible, a student of Machiventa Melchizedek during the Third Epochal Revelation to Urantia, giving him a unique perspective as a teacher. Along with Paramahansa Yogananda, they are among the few teachers known to have hailed from Urantia, our planet. Many of the things that we know about Abraham come from the Bible, is enhanced and made quite real because Abraham will talk about it. His authority is his experience. He has been the group teacher for Woods Cross, Utah since 1995; previous to that, he taught in New Zealand.

Adam and Eve
 Material Sons/Daughters of God are created in the local universe and reside on Jerusem, the system capitol. They serve as parents to the infants and children of time, who perished before they were of age to choose eternal survival. They also are sent as a pair to evolutionary worlds to ameliorate the faults and shortcomings of evolution. Our Adam and Eve pair materialized on Urantia nearly 38,000 years ago for the purpose of biologically uplifting the mortals of the realm. They were 8 feet tall and were of a violet hue. Their bodies gave off a spiritual luminescence, and at night when they wore their cloaks, the glow from their heads gave rise to the concept of the halo. They had a very difficult mission, because of the planetary quarantine that isolated them from contact with the rest of the universe. They came to a backward planet without a Planetary Prince and with little preparation of the mortal inhabitants for their arrival. Eve bore 105 pure-line descendants before they defaulted on their mandate, and, with Adam, was reduced in rank to that of humans of the realm. Adam lived 530 years and died of old age; Eve died nineteen years before Adam from a weakened heart. [UB, Papers 73-76] [pp. 821-854]

Adjudication Lucifer Rebellion
The tribunal of the case of Gabriel vs. Lucifer before the courts of the Ancients of Days had already begun before The Urantia Book was given to the Forum group in Chicago in the early 1930’s. Completion of the universe judicial decree, wherein all participants had either repented and had been rehabilitated or, as in the case of Lucifer, Satan, Caligastia & Dalagastia, had spurned Divine mercy and were annihilated. The adjudication was finalized in the fall of 1985 and made it possible for the Correcting Time to begin and for the communication circuits to be reinstated. The reasons that the rebellion was allowed to continue for 200,000 years are discussed in The Urantia Book. … “You must understand that up until the time Lucifer ceased to exist, he still had free will and had not agreed to the adjudication. The adjudication could not happen until he agreed that it was the right thing to do…” [James, Oct. 4, 1992] The sinner himself must agree with the verdict before adjudication can take place. [UB Paper 54] [pp. 615-618] [See also, the History of the Teaching Mission, Woods Cross, Apr. 20, 1993]

Adjuster, Thought Adjuster, Mystery Monitor, Indwelling
 Thought Adjusters are known by various names, as a Mystery Monitor, a Thought Controller, the Indwelling Spirit, Pilot and the individual fragment of God the Father that lives within mortals of survival potential. It arrives as a gift, a pre-personal spirit bestowal, of the Universal Father when the mortal makes his/her first moral decision, signifying a budding soul, a being of spiritual potential, capable of seeking God and desiring to be like him. [UB, Papers 107-112] [pp. 1176-1240]

Agondonters, Agondonter
The term and its plural refer to mortal will creatures that are able to believe in God with their faith, without seeing, without proof. They have a special trust-worthiness because of their unquestioned faith and supreme confidence in cosmic reliability. Because Urantia lacked a Planetary Prince with his visible staff, and Adam and Eve were not to remain on our planet due to their default, mortals who believe in God are given this recognition. The age of agondonters will end when we once again have a visible Son of Paradise origin with us. [Rayson, Northern Colorado TeaM, Loveland, CO, USA , Nov. 2, 2003]    

Ahbaron Melchizedek
He arrived in Costa Rica ’s Lake Arenal group on January 2002, and he introduced himself, “I am of the order of Melchizedek, and in your human terms, I would be considered very old. I have been on duty on your planet for several thousand years. I have been working with you for some 40 years…[T/R:  Oliver Duex] “We are an order of universe teachers. How do you teach creatures on an evolutionary world, a world that has been isolated from otherwise easily accessible spiritual information? How do you go about opening those minds and hearts even to the possibilities of a direct connection to the Source and Center of all when the regular information flow that normally pours down to a planet of evolution, has been severed – for good reasons .…   “We were sent even before the circuits were being opened in order that we would unearth safe ways for direct communications with human beings who were neither told about nor trained to seek for such communications on their own, communications with those older brothers and sisters that have been given the opportunity to teach and serve here. Patience, my friend, is the key concept to apply when higher evolved minds desire to communicate with more ‘dense’ mind patterns – which I want you to not construe as a criticism, as it is a straight-out fact…”

Aranda
Teacher, Burlington, Iowa. Adjuster-fused female from Mansion World #7.

Archangels
In spite of their name, they are not classified as angels but as Universe Aids. There are about 800,000 of them personalized by the Creator Son and Universe Mother Spirit to work in Nebadon, our local universe. They are dedicated to creature survival and their ascension career. The archangels preserve the records of personality resurrection. There will be 100 of them assigned to the Magisterial Son when he appears. Archangels are the authors of several of the Urantia Papers: 33, 35, 41, 44, 46, 48, and 77-81. They also maintain a divisional headquarters on our planet, a highly unusual arrangement placed here by the direction of Christ Michael.  [UB Paper 37, sec. 3] [pp.408]

Architectural worlds
Architectural worlds – When all seven superuniverses are complete, there will be nearly five hundred billion of these worlds, purposely constructed for their intended uses. The local universe of Nebadon contains 647,591 of these worlds. While they may receive some light from nearby stars, they are heated and lighted independently and therefore do not emit enough light to be seen by Urantia’s telescopes. These worlds do not suffer from geologic instability, or weather phenomena. They are made from morontia materials, which include 100 additional elements that are not found on Urantia, and are very beautiful. You will see your first architectural world when you awaken from the death experience, on Mansion World number one. [UB, Paper 15, sec. 7] [p. 174]

authored "The Zooid Mission" with Gerdean of the Rio Rancho TeaM. She states she was grateful to have an amenable mortal to work with her in her attempt to introduce certain ideals that we might aspire to consider in our aspirations to instigate social progress toward light and life on this planet. Not until 2000 did we get to hear from Athena, when she commented on a project well done. Not until June of 2001 did she acknowledge having worked behind the scenes for all those years.

Attunement
A supplanted concept of atonement, meaning to see eye to eye with one’s Adjuster. It is also often referred to as “at-one-ment.” Attunement points to the increasing coincidence of the mortal will with the Father’s will. Eventually, the “at-one-ment” leads to fusion of the soul with the Father’s indwelling spirit, the Thought Adjuster, thus the mortal attains divinity attunement, while the Adjuster gains personality expression.  [UB, Paper 110, sec. 2] [p.1204]

Celestial beings
Under normal circumstances, spirit personalities like the descending sons of God, or ascending sons of God, including mortals who have left their planets of nativity and have become morontial beings, cannot be seen by mortal eyesCthese are classed as Acelestial beings.@ This category does not include mortals still in their physical bodies and currently hailing from other inhabited, evolutionary planetsCthose would be called Aextraterrestrial@ beings or Aoff-worlders.@   [-JarEl, Arcadia, CA, USA, Feb 16, 2004]

Celestial teachers
Includes all orders of spirit or morontia beings that have volunteered to serve in Christ Michael=s Correcting Time for Urantian mortals and for the other 36 planets from Satania that had been isolated because of the rebellion. Nearly all orders of created beings serve as celestial teachers, from the Mansion World teachers to those of Paradise origin. Also, a large number of these teachers are morontial beings, having lived on evolutionary planets during their mortal lifetimes, and have since traversed much or all of the mansion world experiences and education, some having already fused with their Adjusters. They have been trained by the Melchizedek order of beings to aid us individually in our spiritual growth and to perform a service of assisting us to uplift the civilizations and social fabric of our world. They serve in the capacities of personal and/or group teachers, communicating with mortals through a mind-to-mind process known as transmitting/receiving or ATRing.@ The transcripts located in this web site have come into being through this method of communication.

Centering
Centering – To use the practice of Stillness to prepare body and mind for communion with the Eternal Father, to enter into the flow of the circuits and be in harmony with the universe.  This process is also used for personal communication with ones Thought Adjuster or other Celestial beings, or to achieve group attunement of mind, heart and spirit during sessions of TRing with the Celestial Teachers.

Central Universe
Central Universe – Consists of the Isle of Paradise, surrounded by three concentric rings (circuits) of architectural spheres, each containing 7 sacred spheres of the persons of the Trinity. Beyond these secret spheres of the Deities are found the one billion perfect worlds of Havona, arranged in seven concentric circles. Together with Paradise at the center, plus the 21 sacred spheres, and the seven circuits of the one billion Havona worlds, all of these systems constitute the Central Universe. The Central Universe is separated from the seven Superuniverses by two dark gravity belts, the inner belt rotating counterclockwise around the Central Universe, and the other one rotating clockwise, plus a semiquiet zone. [UB, Papers 11, 13 &14] [pp. 118, 143 & 152]

Char
Primary Midwayer, not of this planet, with biochemistry expertise; organizer and personal teacher; very spiritual. (Pronounced Char as in charwoman.)

Cherubim
In all essential endowments, cherubim and sanobim are similar to seraphim. Their function is to assist all seven orders of seraphim with their duties, such as record keeping and other routine spirit work, and at times in liaison with the midwayers. They always serve in pairs, one cherubim and one sanobim, as their personalities are complementary. Classed as morontia beings, they are in-between angels and midwayers. They speak the languages of their local universe and their Superuniverse, and when serving on a planet of mortal inhabitants, they learn the language(s) of that realm as well. [UB, Paper 38, sec. 7 & 8] [pp. 422-424]

Christ Michael
The offspring of the Universal Father and Eternal Son, he is a Divine Son of the AMichael Order,@ with Creator prerogatives. He created the local universe of Nebadon, and with his consort, Nebadonia, created the various orders of beings that populate this local universe. He later earned AMaster Son@ status, with full Sovereignty over the local universe of his personal creation, by going through a series of seven bestowals, where he became an actual member of each order he created and lived an exemplary life as a being of that order. During his seventh and last bestowal, he appeared on this planet, born as the baby known as Jesus, on August 21, 7 B.C. During the thirty-six years he spent on Urantia on his terminal bestowal, his mandate was to exemplify the revelation of God to man and of the personal relationship man can achieve directly with God. He often addresses his children of Urantia with the phrase, AThis is your Father/Brother, Michael,@ or AThis is your Creator and Father, your Brother and Friend.@ Some of the Christian religious sects that believe Christ is the same being as the Eternal Son, use the term AMichael@ as the name of an Archangel. [UB, Paper 33] [p. 366]

Circuits
These are the discrete and directional conduits of energies of personality, spirit, mind and energy-matter that traverse space for communication, presence, maintenance, healing, and ministry. The universal circuits of Paradise are four in number: The personality gravity of the Eternal Father, the spiritual gravity of the Eternal Son, the mind gravity of the Infinite Spirit, and the material gravity of the Isle of Paradise. The Superuniverse has seven circuits, mainly used for energy transmission, space broadcasts, and the communication within certain orders of beings, such as the Thought Adjusters and Reflective Spirits. The circuits of the local universe are used for the functioning of the Spirit of Truth, the Holy Spirit ministry and the adjutant mind-spirits. [UB Paper15, sec.9] [p. 176]

Citizens, Citizenship
The Urantia Book expands the concept of citizenry from local communities, to states, to nations, to the world, and to the concept of cosmic citizenry.  Every individual being has importance at all levels in terms of effects upon the whole and responsibilities to the whole--all are interconnected, all are unique, all serve a purpose, all are needed, and all are loved unconditionally by the Father. [UB, Papers 184, 110, and 39]  [pp. 1984, 1206, and 435]

Consciousness
The awareness and recognition of self and others. Cosmic consciousness implies the recognition of a First Cause, the one and only uncaused reality. God-consciousness is the intellectual capacity for knowing God. Human consciousness is the recognition of self and the reality of other humans and further implies that such awareness is mutual; that the self is known as it knows. Through The Urantia Book and the Teaching Mission, consciousness is extended to the recognition of the reality of many other orders of spiritual beings, as well as the existence of mortals living on other inhabited planets in the universe. [UB, Paper 16] [p.195]

Constellation
An autonomous primary unit of a local universe; there are 100 of these constellation units in each local universe. Their function is administrative in that they link the 100 systems in their jurisdiction with the local universe administration. The constellation that our system, our world is governed by is called Norlatiadek. The rulers are three Vorondadek Sons, known as the Most Highs. [UB, Paper 43] [p.485]     

Corali
Personal Teacher, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Corlatia
Corlatia – Name of an individual Archangel in the teaching mission.

Coronas
Coronas – Name of an individual Archangel teaching in the Mission.

Correcting Time
The Correcting Time includes every human, every soul on Urantia and on the other 36 planets involved in the quarantine from the Lucifer Rebellion. The date of the beginning of the Correcting Time is February 1, 1992, according to Teacher Ham, but it has been long on the mind of Michael, who started planning for this needed correction since the beginning of the period of isolation, 200,000 years ago. Some of the celestial teachers have been in training to assist these worlds for 1000 years of Urantian time. The Correcting Time refers not only to changes in the earth from natural and manmade causes from pollution and over-population, but also to changes that need to be made in regard to man=s institutions that deal with economics, politics, religion, education, and in the family, the basic social institution. This plan includes The Urantia Book text, the Teaching Mission, the Magisterial Mission, and will most likely be expanded in the future. It is a comprehensive program that will take approximately 1,000 years on this world, preparing for the beginning stage of light and life. [See the History section within these archives.]

Cosmic Citizenship
The Urantia Book expands the concept of citizenry from local communities, to states, to nations, to the world, and to the concept of cosmic citizenry. Every individual being has importance at all levels in terms of effects upon the whole and responsibilities to the wholeCall are interconnected, all are unique, all serve a purpose, all are needed, and all are loved unconditionally by the Father. AJoyful acceptance of cosmic citizenshipChonest recognition of your progressive obligations to the Supreme Being, awareness of the interdependence of evolutionary man and evolving Deity. This is the birth of cosmic morality and the dawning realization of universal duty.@ [UB, Paper 110, sec.3.10] [p. 1206]

Cosmic Mind
Mind is the functional endowment of the Infinite Spirit. It co-ordinates matter and spirit and endows innate scientific, moral, and spiritual insight. Spiritual intuition and faith-insight are examples of the functioning of cosmic mind. The Third Person of God is the source of universal mind; but cosmic mind is modified universal mind to function in time-space by the Master Spirits, The mind of man is an impersonal portion of cosmic mind, a gift of the Creative Daughter Spirit and functions over an individualized circuit.  [UB, Paper 9, sec. 4; Paper 16, sec.6; Paper 101, sec.3]  [pp. 102, 191, 1107]  

Creative Daughter Spirit
Created by the Paradise Third Source and Center, the Infinite Spirit, in reaction to the personalization of a Creator Son by the Father-Son union. She is also known as the Divine Minister of Nebadon, Mother Spirit, source of the Holy Spirit, and consort of Christ Michael, the Creator Son. Her name is Nebadonia; she is everywhere present throughout Nebadon, the local creation to which our planet belongs. She is the Creator of all the local universe level seraphic beings and nurtures all life forms, human, animal and plant. [UB, Paper 34]  [pp. 374] 

Creator
The First Source and Center, the one and only Auncaused reality,@ creator of all that exists in the vast Grand Universe. Also known as God the Father, the Universal Father, the First person of Deity, the "I AM," the ONE, the Infinite Upholder, the Divine Controller, the Almighty, and the God of Personality, to mention just a few. AIn theory you may think of God as the Creator, and he is the personal creator of Paradise and the central universe of perfection, but the universes of time and space are all created and organized by the Paradise corps of the Creator Sons. The Universal Father is not the personal creator of the local universe of Nebadon; the universe in which you live is the creation of his Son Michael. Though the Father does not personally create the evolutionary universes, he does control them in many of their universal relationships and in certain of their manifestations of physical, mindal, and spiritual energies. God the Father is the personal creator of the Paradise universe and, in association with the Eternal Son, the creator of all other personal universe Creators.@ [UB, Paper 1, sec. 2] [p. 24]        

Creator Sons
These are the Divine Sons, the perfect and personal creations of the Universal Father and Eternal Son. Each of these 700,000 Creator Sons (plus a reserve corps) of the Aorder of Michael Sons@ are unique in nature and personality and each is destined to design, create, build and administer the local universe that they bring into existence, out of the nebulae and energy manifestations of physical reality provided by the Paradise force organizers. They create not only some of the physical aspects of their local universes such as the status architectural spheres, but with their consorts, the Divine Creative Daughter Spirits, they create the various kinds of beings that populate their local universe. They aspire to bring their own creations into the state of perfection modeled by the perfection of  Havona, and to simultaneously reveal the perfection of the Universal Father and the Eternal Son to the beings of their creation. It is customary for each Creator Son to become Aas one@ with selected orders of beings of their creation for a period of time to gain and share the wisdom and experience of that which they created. Successful completion of these bestowal experiences gives them complete sovereignty over their domains, making them wise and loving, merciful and just rulers. The Creator Son of our local universe of Nebadon is called Christ Michael, who is known to us as Jesus for his 7th bestowal experience as a mortal ascendant son on our world.

Dalamatia
The headquarters city of the Planetary Prince, established in the Persian Gulf region about 500,000 years ago. At the time that Caligastia came to Urantia as our Planetary Prince, mankind had been evolving for half a million years and numbered nearly a half billion primitive humans scattered throughout Europe, Asia and Africa. The Persian Gulf region was selected as the headquarters site because it was in the center of the population and had a favorable climate. This area, later called Mesopotamia, became the Acradle of civilization@ because of the teachings of Caligastia=s staff that advanced the culture of mankind in the areas of growing food, domestication of animals, industry and trade, education and sanitation, to name only a few examples. After the Rebellion, a tidal wave from the Persian Gulf swept over the city and caused its obliteration. [UB, Paper 66 & 67] [p. 741-761]

Deity
In the Urantia Revelation, the concept of Deity is greatly expanded to include the functions of personal, prepersonal and superpersonal levels. ADeity may be existential, as in the Eternal Son; experiential, as in the Supreme Being; associative, as in God the Sevenfold; undivided, as in the Paradise Trinity.@ [UB, Foreword, sec. 1] [p. 1]

Descending Sons
Sons of various orders created in a state of perfection, which accept incarnation or spiritual missions to serve the lower imperfect orders of beings as they ascend, in order to gain experiential knowledge. An example would be our own Christ Michael, a Creator Son of the Michael Order, who Adescended@ through seven orders of beings: He served as a Melchizedek, a Lanonandek, a Material Son, a Seraphim, an ascendant mortal, a morontia mortal, and last as a mortal infant, born in Bethlehem. [UB, Paper 20] [p.223] ; [UB Paper 119] [p. 1308]

Devina
Devina – An angelic being, who brings her love and acceptance since June of 2000 to the “jungle group” on Lake Arenal in northern Costa Rica. Alana described her:  “And your delightfully broken record, Devina, flits about, fluttering her wings upon your turmoil, you mental disturbance, and she says, ‘Surrender all fear and confusion to our Heavenly Father.’” Devina works with metaphors, “Each of you, imagine a silver string attached down through the uppermost space at the top of your skulls, down to the center of your heart. Yes? Now, I hold these silver strings. I tug upon them, but just a tiny bit, now. Yes? Remember this, I tug upon these silver strings to bring you a little lightheartedness, everywhere you go, every time you forget.”

Disciples, Modern
Modern day disciples are those who choose to follow the teachings of the Gospel of Jesus and share those teachings with willing listeners, to actively practice loving others as Jesus/Christ Michael loves them, and to love God and willingly serve mankind for the glory of the Father.  [UB, Paper 180, sec.1] [p. 1994]

Dispensation
The closing of a spiritual age or planetary epoch, and the beginning of a new one, the most recent dispensation announced by Christ Michael June 8, 1995. [Sarasota, Florida, transcript of June 8, 1995] Currently, we just began the ATransition Era.@ [Monjoronson B Dec. 7, 2008, NOCO #103] Because of Urantia=s highly unusual history, we do not fit into the normal categories of the planetary mortal epochs. The actions of the Correcting Time will help to advance Urantia to the status it should have for a world in the postbestowal Son age. The Magisterial Son=s ministry will be a large part of this correction as well. [UB, Paper 52] [p.589]  [See also AHistory of the teaching mission,@ Abraham, circa 1992.]  

Dispensational Roll Call
An action by the universe administration, which calls up all sleeping survivors, (those of potential soul survivability but who had not reached a certain level of attainment in their spiritual growth during their mortal lifetimes,) to their resurrections on the mansion worlds. The first one occurred at the arrival of the Planetary Prince, 500,000 years ago, and the most recent one followed the end of the adjudication of the Lucifer Rebellion. Besides the dispensational roll calls, special roll calls are also performed at least every millennium for the awakening of the sleeping survivors. This is done so that the new morontial pilgrims can be instructed in groups. It does not apply to those individuals who have reached a requisite level of spiritual attainment; they have a shorter sleep of only three days. [Michael, Sarasota, Florida, Jun. 8, 1995]  

Divinington
An architectural sphere, one of the sacred spheres of the Father, in the orbit of 7 Father worlds closest to the Isle of Paradise. It is the home world of the Thought Adjusters, Gravity Messengers, and other Father fragments. It takes a Thought Adjuster, 117 hours, 42 minutes and 7 seconds to travel from Divinington to Urantia, but nearly all of this time is taken up on Uversa, the superuniverse capitol, when the Thought Adjuster registers the mortal of his imminent indwelling as a soul of spiritual potential, signified by that mortal=s making his/her first moral decision, usually around five or six years of age. [UB, Paper 108] [p. 1185]   

Dr. Mendoza
(MNO-8) - [1945 or 1946] A secondary midwayer, healer and psychologist. He is a brilliant multi-linguist. The Dr. is known as the "man" who ate no dinners. He is reported to be the fourth midwayer member of the Australian Emergency Unit, or 11:11 Platoon.

Eden
When a world is in need of a biological uplifting, when natural evolution has become stagnant, a Material Son and Daughter are sent to the planet for this purpose. Urantia’s Material Son and Daughter were called Adam and Eve, and a garden home was made for them prior to their arrival, called Eden in honor of Edentia. The first Eden was a peninsula of land at the eastern end of the Mediterranean Sea and was a place of great beauty, with an abundance of vegetation, fresh water, and a place for animals on the adjoining mainland. Here Adam and Eve taught the more advanced peoples of the region better ways of providing for their material and spiritual needs. The first Eden sank as a result of normal geological disturbances. A second Garden of Eden was later built in the area of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, near the previous city of Dalamatia . It too, sank below the waves of the Persian Gulf.  [UB, Paper 73]  [p. 821]  

Edentia
It is the name of the headquarters world of our Constellation of Norlatiadek, an architectural sphere of unimagined beauty and grandeur. It is 100 times larger than Urantia and has 770 satellites for a total cluster count of 771 spheres. Advancing mortals spend much time there, socializing and learning in the Melchizedek schools. [UB, Paper 43] [p. 485]

Encircuited
To be connected to one of the many different kinds of universe energy circuits, which circulate throughout the universes by definite routes. An example would be the circuit a Transport Seraphim would use to carry a spirit being from one world to another, or those circuits used in mindal communication over long distances.

Ensa
The name of our minor sector, one of the physical divisions within the superuniverse of Orvonton. The capitol of Ensa is Uminor the third and it has seven satellite worlds for the study of higher physical realities. [UB, Paper 15] [p. 164]

Enzia
Midwayer (Pronounced en-eet, sia).

Epochal Revelation
The purpose of revelation is to exalt and up-step the religions of evolution by periodic teachings, tailored to the needs and capacity for receptivity of the mortals. It is a response to the hunger of mortals to believe and depend upon the Deities for their source of truth. Every inhabited evolutionary planet receives a series of epochal revelations throughout its history, to correct errors in the beliefs of men and direct them on a more enlightened path of progress. The Urantia Book is one example, the fifth one to be given to Urantia. [UB, Paper 92, sec. 4] [p. 1007]  

Error, evil, sin & iniquity
Error is the inevitable result of the immature creature’s use of free will from a misconception or distortion of reality, an unwise judgment, or a decision made with incomplete facts or lacking of intellectual keenness. These will be forgiven and forgotten in eternity. Evil is the darkness that follows rejection of light, and immature choosing of less than is righteous, of choosing error over truth; an imperfect obedience to the Father’s will. Sin is a willful, conscious identification with evil, a deliberate transgression of divine will. Sin retards intellectual development, moral growth, social progress and spiritual attainment, but does not prevent them. Sin has repercussions but is correctable; forgiveness is available if mercy is accepted. Iniquity is the persistent pursuit of sin and error, a destruction of the connection of soul with spirit, a rejection of divine forgiveness, a lack of sorrow for misdeeds. It is spiritual suicide. [UB, Paper 67, sec. 1] [p.754]

Ester
Teacher, Kansas City

Eternal Son
Second Source and Center, the Second Person of Deity, the Original Son and with God the Father, is the co-creator of other divine Sons. He is the source of spirit, the administrator of all spirit, the center of spirit in the universe and therefore all things spiritual are drawn to him, and because he is co-eternal and co-ordinate with the Father, he is a full equal to the Father. [UB, Papers 6 & 7] [pp.73-89]

Evanson
Personal Teacher, Coeur d’Alene, Idaho.

Eve
Eve – Teacher, Sarasota, Florida and Sandy, Utah.

Evolution
Organic evolution is never a cosmic accident; it is masterfully, intelligently planned, following Deity specified patterns and processes, designed individually for the conditions found on each evolutionary world of space that has or will have, physical characteristics favorable to the support of life. The Life Carrier Sons design the genetic code necessary for the evolution of all living life forms that are intended for that planet. They place this purposely planned, Deity designed genetic code into a life supporting protoplasm and implant this substance into a suitable, sheltered place in the environment, impart the spark of life that gives it life and animation, and allow it to grow and evolve through long ages of adaptation into the various kinds of plant and animal life that will eventually lead to and support the evolution of mortal will creatures, intelligent, bi-pedal beings, capable of finding God and desiring to be like him.   In every living cell, plant or animal, there is an innate insatiable craving for the attainment of ever increasing perfection, a need to adapt to environmental conditions, and organismal adaptations that give it not only survival qualities, but also an enhancement of characteristics that lead to improvements in quality of life. “The Urantia midwayers have assembled over fifty thousand facts of physics and chemistry which they deem to be incompatible with the laws of accidental chance, and which they contend unmistakably demonstrates the presence of intelligent purpose in the material creation.  And all of this takes no account of their catalogue of more than one hundred thousand findings outside the domain of physics and chemistry which they maintain prove the presence of mind in the planning, creation, and maintenance of the material cosmos.”  [UB, Paper 58, sec. 2, and Paper 65]  [p.665, p. 730]

Experimental planet
Every tenth planet in a given System comprising 1,000 spheres capable of supporting life, is designated a Adecimal world,@ a planet where the Life Carriers are allowed to experiment, modify, and attempt to improve the life forms, within limits. Urantia is one of these life-experiment worlds upon which developed twenty-eight modifications that were successful and will be allowed to be utilized on future worlds in Nebadon. Unfortunately, some of the modifications tried by the Life Carriers were handicapped by the Caligastia betrayal and Adamic default. Some of the primitive forms of plant life reverted and became parasitic bacteria, causing serious diseases in the higher mammals. The Adamic uplift would have corrected much of this problem by making man immune to bacterial and viral effects if Adam and Eve had not defaulted in their mission. It now rests on human mind endowment to use science and ingenuity to solve some of these biological problems that plague our world, but we are not without divine assistance in this matter. We have been given the opportunity to co-create the solutions to Urantia=s problems, mankind working with celestial beings to discover corrections for these problems. This is one aspect of the Correcting time.   [UB, Paper 65] [p. 730]   

Faith
The outgrowth of the insight born of the activity of the indwelling Adjuster. It is the recognition of the spiritual consciousness, an attribute of personal religious experience. It is born of a confidence and dependence on God. It is the tool for dealing with man=s greatest problems. It is man=s passport to eternity; it brings man to union with God. It is to religion what sails are to a ship; it makes believers secure in the kingdom of God, it causes potentials to become actuals in the spirit world. The faith of Jesus is the most outstanding example of what is possible when man dares to trust completely in the Father. The faith of Jesus was wholehearted, personal and spiritual. He clearly demonstrated sublime trust in the leadings of his Heavenly Father. Jesus devoted his entire earthly life to following the will of his Father, with complete confidence and trust; he forever leads the way to eternal life. [UB, Paper 196.] [p. 2087]

Father Fragment
An alternate term for the Thought Adjuster, which is a pre-personal fragment of the Heavenly Father, given as a gift to mortals with spirit potential, and which is a homing device to lead man to God, to help him with the trials of living, and to teach him what he needs to know to grow his soul into an eternal reality. At some point in man=s spiritual growth, fusion takes place between man and his Father Fragment. [UB, Papers 107-112] [pp. 1176-1240]

Father Fused
Ninety percent of the mortals in Nebadon are destined to fuse with their Father fragments. By this technique, the pre-personal Father fragment gains personality, and the ascending son gains immortality, divinity attainment, and access to the experiential history and knowledge of the Father. There are also Son fused and Spirit fused individuals, but not many from Urantia. [UB, Paper 40] [p. 443]   

Felicia
Teacher, Sedona, Arizona. Works with mortals to help raise their vibration levels.

Fifth Epochal Revelation
The Urantia Book is Part I, the Teaching Mission is Part II, and the Magisterial Mission is Part III of the currently appearing epochal revelation on Urantia. AAnd so the Fifth Epochal Revelation (FER) is to unify the religious understandings of Urantia that the fact of the loving parent will become known and the world will be one in all its grand diversity.@ Epochal revelation is designed to correct philosophical error, assess the evolutionary religions and science, and adjust the planetary and human history to a factual account of events from the past on an inhabited planet. [Daniel, South East Idaho, USA, Feb. 15, 2004]   

Finaliters
The career of destiny for Father-fused mortals that have faithfully ascended all the worlds of specialized training, have mastered the will of the Father, and achieved perfection of intention as creatures of time and space. Finaliters serve the Paradise Trinity on the worlds of space. They have learned to be superb administrators within the Grand Universe until such time as their skills and experience will be needed in the administration of the outer space universes. They are a new being who consists of an eternal union of the perfect Adjuster and a perfected one-time-mortal creature. [UB, Papers 40, 10, & 31] [443, 108, 345]

Fusion
The makeup of your being, your true self, is the combination of your personality, your soul, and your Divine Father Fragment within. The personal soul-self and the divine Adjuster combine together in such a way that no being in the universe can tell which portion was the mortal soul and which part was the Adjuster Father. In effect, what results is a new type of being that is personalized at the moment of fusion. AUnderstanding these three elements of your being erases the confusion that is often found in the teachings of the many religions existent upon this planet. Y. Your personality is changeless; it is the anchor of your entire makeup. You have begun a relationship that is transforming into a living reality, your soul. These three aspects when fused are eternalized. Your body and mind will not remain with you as you know it today.@  [Elyon, Light Line, Feb. 26, 2004]

GabreEl

Gideon
Personal Teacher, Spokane, Washington.

God Consciousness
The human mind, because of the cosmic endowment of mind and the indwelling of the Adjuster, is able to discern the fact, the law, and the love of God. Discerning the spiritual presence of God is determined by the capacity of receptivity and the consecration of the creature=s will to doing the divine will. God has already reached down for the contact with man through the gift of the Thought Adjuster. When the mind of man recognizes this presence of divinity within, and desires to have more contact with his Heavenly Father, this upward reach of man to God results in soul growth that gives man ever more direct contact and communion with God and the awareness of that as fact. Jesus attained a state of unbroken communion with God, which he attained through intelligent prayer and sincere worship. [UB, Papers 5, 100, 196] [pp. 62, 1094, 2087]

Gracie
Personal Teacher, Coffs Harbour, New South Wales, Australia.

Grand Universe
It is the inhabited creation only and does not take into account the outer space areas, which presently do not contain life, but only the organization of matter and energy. The grand universe consists of the the central universe, which is made up of the Isle of Paradise and Havona , and the seven superuniverses, with their major and minor sectors, local universes, constellations, local systems and seven trillion inhabited planets (the time-space universes). It is not only a physical/material creation, but it is a responsive, living organism, permeated by energy lanes and intelligence circuits that activate it and nourish it much as the human body is nourished by means of the circulatory system that distributes energy to all parts of the body. It is subject to the over-control of the mindedness of the power centers. [UB, Paper 116, sec.7] [p.1276]  

Guardian Angels
Although much of the teachings about guardian angels are based on myth, nevertheless they are real and play a crucial role in the spiritual destiny of mortals on all inhabited worlds. Their voluntary ministry is to individual mortals. They generally serve in pairs and are assisted by cherubim and sanobim. In the beginning of a mortal=s life, one seraphim pair will oversee a group of 1000 mortals with assistance from a company of cherubim, but as the mortals ascend in their psychic circle growth of spiritual attainment, the numbers of mortals served by a seraphic pair become fewer in number, until such time as the mortal achieves the requisite spiritual status to have a pair of destiny guardians assigned to him/her exclusively. Angels do not invade human mind or interfere with the free will decisions of the mortals of their assignment, but they guide you into situations of learning and spiritual growth. At death, your destiny guardians become the custodial trustees of your records, your identity specifications and your soul, until you are re-personalized on the mansion worlds. They remain your companions for much of the time while you progress toward Paradise, simultaneously furthering their own advancement of seraphic education.  [UB, Paper 113] [p. 1241]

Indwelling Father
Also known as the Father fragment, the Thought Adjuster, the Thought controller, the Mystery Monitor; the gift of the Universal Father to the evolutionary mortals, the Father=s love incarnate in the souls of men. It is this fragment that leads man to become perfect, to become eternal. Because these Father fragments have characteristic spirit luminosity, they are often referred to as the Apilot light@ or the Alight of life.@ [UB, Papers 107-112] [pp. 1176-1240]    

Infinite Spirit
Third Source and Center, Third Person of Deity, the Conjoint Actor, the Conjoint Creator, Universal Spirit, Infinite Mind, Spirit of Spirits, the Holy Spirit, the Paradise Mother Spirit, and the God of Action. This third person of the Trinity is directly or indirectly the creator of all the Seraphic Orders, the Divine Ministers, and the bestower of mind. The Infinite Spirit is able to exert a personal influence on mortal man through the action of mind, as in the saying, ABeing led by the Spirit of God.@ [UB, Papers 7 & 8] [pp. 81-97]

Inhabitable Planets
All mortals begin life on an evolutionary planet, an orb consisting of 100 naturally occurring chemical elements. (Additional elements made by man do not count.) Mortal man is not an accidental creation; there is a precise system, a universal law that determines what life forms will develop, beginning with simple ones and progressing through the divine technique of evolutionary growth and development. Not all planets are suitable for life forms to develop, and most worlds go through millions, if not billions, of years of geologic stabilization before they are ready for life implantation by the Life Carriers. No two worlds have identical life forms; life forms must be modified from basic patterns to conform to the unique characteristics of the worlds of space. All planets that are given life plasm by the Life Carriers, are preprogrammed to eventually develop mortal creatures of will dignity, intelligent, erect bipeds, but they vary greatly in all other respects; the inhabitants may live 25 years on one planet, but 500 years on another; some need an atmosphere, others are non-breathers; in response to the size of the planet and the amount of gravity, the mortals may vary from 2.5 feet in height to 10 feet; some mortal beings fly, some live on land and some live in the water. [UB, Paper 49] [p. 559]

Ionah
Andite Leader, on the sea journey from Japan to South America and settling in the Andes. Sometimes known as “Kontiki Viracocha.” Primary Midwayer Andrea accompanied these Andites on their journey. There are legends connected with the Mayans, Aztecs, and Incas that they were visited by a tall man that came by sea, with a white face, a long beard and blue eyes, that they regarded as a God. In Ionah’s transcript, he states that he was a pure Andite, six feet tall, with blond hair and that there was another man with him with a full beard and blond hair who was from the Mediterranean region. Ionah also says that of the 860 people who traveled with him on 16 large ships, that one(?) of them was of the yellow race and one(?) was black. Of the large mysterious Olmec carved heads found in the region of Meso-America, might they have been inspired by this black man with Ionah?  There are not verifiable dates to positively link Ionah’s voyage to the native legends, but it does give one reason to wonder.

Jesus / Joshua ben Joseph
Jesus was born Aug. 21, 7 B.C. the first-born of 9 children. He was an exceptional child, very intelligent, well behaved, and was well liked by his peers and elders. He learned the carpentry trade from his father and became very skillful. Jesus was 14 when his father died, which forced him to assume the role of head of his household as the eldest, to become the sole supporter of his mother and 8 siblings. He took care of his family, seeing to the education of his brothers and sisters, and did not leave home to begin his ministry until he had trained his oldest brother, James, to assume the duties he had been carrying as head of the household. Jesus continued to earn and send money to his family, and with the marriage of James, Jesus returned home to train the next brother, Joseph, to head the household. Jesus was 24 before he was relatively free from his responsibilities to his family and could be away from home for longer periods of time, returning periodically to continue the training of his younger siblings.   At 27 years of age, Jesus was able to begin his intense preparation for his ministry, as he traveled and taught in Rome, Crete, Alexandria, Corinth, Athens, Antioch, the Caspian, and back to Jerusalem. Jesus was 31 when he ended the Lucifer Rebellion on Mt. Hermon, and later that year he presented himself to his cousin John for Baptism. Next came the choosing and training of his Apostles, and teaching as they traveled through Samaria, the Decapolis, Galilee, and Phoenicia, periodically going back to Jerusalem before the start of another tour. For five years they preached to the multitudes, leading up to the crucifixion on April 7, AD 30, at 36 years of age. Following his resurrection, Jesus made many appearances in his morontial form before bestowing his Spirit of Truth to all of humanity, as he had promised. His seventh and last bestowal finished, he was proclaimed Planetary Prince of Urantia, and Master Son and Sovereign of his local universe of Nebadon, by the Ancients of Days and by the Eternal Father and the Eternal Son. [UB, Papers 120-196.] [pp. 1323-2097]

Kingdom of Heaven
Jesus always taught his apostles that the kingdom embraced man's personal experience in relation to his fellows on earth and to the Father in heaven. Concerning the kingdom, his last word always was, "The kingdom is within you." [UB, Paper 170] [p. 1859]

Knowingness
The validation that one gets internally from the Thought Adjuster and the Spirit of Truth. [Rayson, Northern Colorado TeaM, Loveland, CO, USA, Sept. 16, 2001] AThe experience of God-consciousness remains the same from generation to generation, but with each advancing epoch in human knowledge the philosophic concept and the theologic definitions of God must change. God-knowingness, religious consciousness, is a universe reality, but no matter how valid (real) religious experience is, it must be willing to subject itself to intelligent criticism and reasonable philosophic interpretation; it must not seek to be a thing apart in the totality of human experience.@ [UB, Paper 5 p. 69]

Lanaforge
The System Sovereign who replaced Lucifer and who is currently the head of the System of Satania to which the planet Urantia, our earth, belongs. He makes frequent visits to Urantia and will drop in on Teaching Mission groups, as do many other celestial visitors.  He is a brilliant and gracious system ruler, a rebellion-tested sovereign.

Lanonandek Sons
Created local universe administrators, best known as System Sovereigns and Planetary Princes. Though brilliant, these Sons have been known to go astray, as they have neither Thought Adjusters nor do they have any direct experience with the Paradise Deities. Of the 12 million Primary, Secondary and Tertiary Lanonandeks in Nebadon, 700 of them have gone astray; have deviated from acceptable techniques of universe government.

Legion
Group Teacher, Costa Rica. “Human beings are interested in stories. My story has many chapters, and continues to be written with love. I, at one time, although I had been raised with all the tenderness of love on a planet of love, experienced, you might say, a crisis of—you would say, faith—I will say, love. Prior to that experience I worked as, you might call it, as a laborer, one who must have a strong body and the willingness to use that strength at tasks of endurance. When I embraced that crisis with love, I learned to greatest lesson of all, that love is real, that to love is the greatest vocation, and I became a leader of men, and so, you might say, I became a teacher.”Of his mortal marriage, he shared:  “I was very fortunate. I was led to marriage by a very loving father. He took me by the hand and showed me a beautiful woman. Her face and body may not have met your present standards of beauty, but her being was of such ascendant beauty that I was attracted immediately and showed no resistance to my father’s wisdom.”

Life Carriers
A divine order of Sonship, created by Michael, the Creator Son, Nebadonia, Universe Mother Spirit, and one of the three Ancients of Days, a divine order presiding over the destinies of the superuniverse. The Life Carriers number one hundred million in Nebadon and are entrusted with establishing physical life on evolutionary worlds. They are grouped into three divisions, senior Life Carriers, assistants and custodians. After implanting life, they are allowed to manipulate life environment to foster biologic evolution, but once human creatures of moral status appear, they are not allowed to make any further adjustments. The vital spark of life, is bestowed through the Life Carriers by the Universe Mother Spirit [UB, Paper 36, sec. 1-4] [pp.396-400]  

Light and Life
When an evolutionary planet has completed its successive planetary ages, when it has progressed to the point of having one religion, one language, and usually one race, most diseases having been conquered, war no longer exists, poverty and social inequality have vanished, degeneracy and delinquency are nearly gone, and the natural resources are fairly distributed, then the planet is considered to be ready for the Agolden age of light and life.@ There are actually seven stages where this occurs, starting with the individual planet, and progressing up through the system, constellation, local universe, and on up until the whole superuniverse is settled in light and life.  [UB, Paper 55] [p. 621]

Local System
Our local system, named Satania is not yet complete. So far there are 619 inhabited planets in the system, and there will be 1000 when it is complete. Urantia was the 606th world to have life implanted on it within the system. The administrative head of Satania is a Lanonandek Son named Lanaforge. He has served since shortly after Lucifer was deposed and incarcerated for disloyalty to the universe government. [UB, Paper 45, 46] [pp. 509-529]

Local Universe
Our local universe, Nebadon, was created by Christ Michael, and is ruled by Michael as Master Son and Sovereign, and by Nebadonia, Creative Daughter Spirit and Divine Minister. The administrative headquarters is Salvington, which is also the abode of Michael and Nebadonia. It is still in the process of formation and will eventually contain10,000,000 inhabited planets.  Nebadon is one of 700,000 local universes within the Grand Universe.[UB, Papers 32, 33] [pp. 357-373]

Love
All true love comes from God; the love of the Father is seen in the mortal personality by the ministry of the indwelling Adjuster and is always in a state of motion, a circuit that flows from the Father, through the Sons, to our brethren and back to the Father; it can never be imprisoned in the heart of man. Love becomes real when it is bestowed upon others; it is infectious and brings about universal brotherhood; it destroys fear, hate and sin. AThe love of the Father absolutely individualizes each personality as a unique child of the Universal Father, a child without duplicate in infinity, a will creature irreplaceable in all eternity.@   [UB, Paper 12, sec.7] [p. 137]

Lucifer
A brilliant primary Lanonandek Son who served as a loyal Sovereign over the System of Satania for 500,000 years before he decided that there was no Universal Father and made a Declaration of Liberty, contending that the local systems should be autonomous. Through pride, he convinced himself that the rebellion was for the good of the system, and was able to ensnare large numbers of celestial beings throughout Satania to join him in his rebellion against the Father=s over-control. He even tried to enlist Michael in his plan for secession. Jesus terminated Lucifer=s power when he met with the archrebels Lucifer, Satan, Caligastia and Daligastia) on Mount Hermon defeating them as the Son of Man, without using his Divine powers. Lucifer=s was the third rebellion in the Local Universe of Nebadon, all of which occurred before Michael had earned his Sovereignty. Lucifer was tried, along with his cohorts, in front of the Ancients of Days in the case called AGabriel vs. Lucifer,@ and after the four archrebels again spurned the offers of mercy they were offered by Michael, they chose annihilation and Aare no more.@   Thus ended the trial and adjudication that took place in the fall of 1985. [UB, Paper 53] [p.601]  [History, Mission and Transformation, by Duane Faw, Jan.28, 2003]

Machiventa Melchizedek
A distinguished member of the order of Melchizedek. He is known in Urantian history as the ASage of Salem.@  Machiventa came to Urantia and served 94 years in the flesh, working to prepare the way for Michael=s bestowal mission. Because of the Lucifer Rebellion and the Adamic Default, the spiritual Alamp@ had nearly gone out. Machiventa served as an emergency teacher to uplift the belief in one God by revelation, in order to prepare the way for the planned bestowal of a Paradise Son. He materialized as an adult male, six feet in height, dressed as a priest and had a commanding presence. He spoke seven languages of the region and was also known as the ATeacher of Salem@ and the APriest of El Elyon.@ He gathered a core of students and taught them as much as they could receive, particularly the doctrine of one God, a Creator and heavenly Father. He gave them seven commandments to live by and supplanted their beliefs in blood sacrifice with a sacrament of bread and wine. Abraham was one of Machiventa=s pupils and a loyal supporter. The Salem teachings were kept alive through the generations by Abraham=s offspring, forming the core of the religious beliefs of the Hebrews and the Muslims, and also spreading to Rome, Egypt, Asia, India, and to all parts of Mesopotamia. Following the end of the Jesus bestowal, Michael became Planetary Prince of Urantia. He asked Machiventa to serve as Vicegerent in his stead. Machiventa was given the title of Planetary Prince in his own right in 2002. [UB, Papers 93-95] [pp. 1014-1051] [See history transcripts: June, 1989, Feb. 1, 1992]

Magisterial Mission
A visit by a Paradise Son of the Order of Avonals occurs when a planet has reached an evolutionary limit of intellectual and ethical progress. They may also appear in judicial actions as dispensation terminators, liberating the sleeping survivors for resurrection in the halls of mansonia. Each Avonal Son also has at least one bestowal mission, where he is born of woman, as was Jesus. On missions other than bestowals, they appear in visible form as adult males. On some technical missions, the Avonals may not be visible to mortals. Planets may have numerous magisterial missions. Urantia is nearing its first Magisterial Mission, a part of Christ Michael=s Correcting Time Plan. [UB, Paper 20] [p. 223]

Magisterial Son of Urantia
Our world is soon to experience its first Magisterial Son, a Paradise Avonal Son announced within the American Teaching Mission groups as AMonjoronson,@ who will arrive as a visible adult male. He has been present in invisible form since July 2001, while planning for his administration. Monjoronson has been contacting Correcting Time groups and others worldwide, letting them know of his coming, preparing them for his arrival. He is also known as Athe Beloved One,@ and by other names in other cultures. His true universe name has not yet been revealed. His name and estimated time of arrival cannot be found in The Urantia Book, as his coming was dependent on the final adjudication of the Lucifer Rebellion.  [See section on the history of Urantia=s Magisterial Son, Monjoronson.]  

Magisterial Sons
They are Paradise Avonal Sons, the creation of the Eternal Son and the Infinite Spirit, about one billion in number in the grand universe, each one a new and divine ideal of loving service. They come into being as Divine administrators, descending Sons who reveal themselves as servers, bestowers, judges, teachers, and truth revealers. They work closely with the Creator Sons, the Michaels, of each local universe. [UB, Paper 20, sec. 1-4] [pp. 223-226]  

Major Sectors
Each one of the seven superuniverses is subdivided into 10 large administrative divisions called major sectors. The major sector in which Nebadon resides is called Splandon and its capitol is called Umajor the fifth. Splandon rotates around the star cloud of Sagittarius. [UB, Paper 15, sec. 7 & 14] [pp. 174, 181]

Malventia Melchizedek
Malventia Melchizedek – Spoke at Snow Mountain International TeaM conference. [Ed. Note:  There seems to be much confusion on the pronunciation and spelling of these five received Melchizedek names. It is possible that some of these are the same individual. TRing is not always error free; it is difficult to hear subtle differences in pronunciation.]

Mandate
Whenever a descending Son, such as a Creator Son or an Avonal Son, or a group of beings, such as those participating in the Correcting Time, are sent forth on a mission, they are given instructions on specific achievements that they are to accomplish as well as prohibitions, by a higher order of being and these are collectively known as mission mandates. For the mandates that Michael was given by his older brother, Immanuel, for his 7 bestowal experiences, see: [UB, Paper 119] [p.1308]

Manotia
Associate Chief of Seraphim of Satania during the rebellion, appointed to replace her Superior who defaulted, and is now Associate Chief of Seraphim on Urantia. She was later attached to the Melchizedek receivership corps on Urantia to assume jurisdiction over the loyal seraphim. She was the seraphic heroine of the Lucifer rebellion.  [UB, Paper 53, sec. 6 & 7]  [pp.426, 606-608]

Mansion Worlds
Seven architectural worlds, about the size of Urantia orbiting Transition World #1, among the 56 architectural worlds that orbit around Jerusem, the System Capitol. These are the beginning worlds of training for the mortals of the evolutionary worlds after mortal death, the Aheavens@ conceived of by prophets through visions and the origin of the biblical saying, AIn my Father=s house are many mansions.@ Mortals of time begin their eternal careers on the mansion worlds after their awakening in the resurrection halls, where they are given a new physical body and their soul, mind, personality identity and memories are returned to them from safekeeping by their guardian seraphim and Thought Adjuster. They advance sphere by sphere, as they learn the lessons that they failed to learn on their planets of nativity, and are compensated for deprivations and handicaps from mortal life. [UB, Papers 46-48] [pp.519-558]

Mansonia
A collective term for all 56 architectural spheres that orbit the system headquarters of Jerusem, as morontia worlds for a total of 57 Satania worlds.

Mantutia Melchizedek
Served as Melchizedek Director of the Urantia Revelatory Commission, for Parts II and III of the Urantia Book and compiled Paper 120 to place upon the record, those universe events and counsel that were preparatory to the final bestowal of Michael. [UB Papers 56 & 119, end notes] [pp. 648 & 1319]  “I am your Regional Manager, your Regional Representative or guiding Melchizedek influence in this area. As you may know, or may not be aware, that there is a council of Melchizedeks who have regional…the words ‘governance’ and ‘supervision’ are inappropriate…we act as an Administrative Unit, geographically and energetically attached to various areas of the planet. My area happens to be the Rocky Mountain Cordillera, the range of mountains going north and south, and even into South America. The region ranges from the Rocky Mountains to approximately near to St. Louis and the Mississippi Valley, and westward to the Sierras. There are other Melchizedeks who administer to those areas east and west.” [Mantutia, Northern Colorado TeaM. Feb. 10, 2002]    

Maralena
Maralena – Midwayer.

Margul
(Heard as Mar-gool) Trinity Teacher Son. He has inspected Urantia recently and seems to be in the process of establishing a movement of enlightenment for the eventual goal of light and life. A staff of Teacher Sons has come with him, and is involved in giving forth information as advisors to other teachers in communication efforts.

Marleena
Marleena: A celestial teacher whose specialty is the healing arts, Marleena taught her "global" group a technique involving heart circuitry work. One of Marleena's roles was as a transducer. [Ed: Any of various devices that transmit energy from one system to another, sometimes one that converts the energy in form, i.e. a speaker that converts electrical impulses into sound.] Marleena presented her students with exercises that helped students understand each other and themselves better. Intensive emotional work was part of the process. 

Mary, Mother of Jesus
Mary met Joseph when he worked for her Father, building an addition to their house. They courted for two years and married in March of 8, B.C. when Joseph was 21 years of age. Mary was well educated, an expert at weaving, a good housekeeper and superior homemaker. She was of excellent lineage, with ancestors that could be traced back to Eve, as well as many other well-known women of Syrian, Hittite, Phoenician, Greek and Egyptian stocks. She gave birth to Jesus/Joshua on Aug 21, 7 B.C. She later gave birth to James, Miriam, Joseph, Simon, Martha, Jude, Amos, and Ruth. Amos died before his sixth birthday from a high fever; the other children all lived into adulthood. [UB Part IV, the Jesus Papers, #120-196]

Master Son
When a Creator Son of the order of Michael has completed the Local universe of his making, he serves as a vicegerent regent until he goes through a series of seven bestowal experiences, becoming as an ordinary son of each order of beings that he created. The purpose is to become a wise, sympathetic, just, and understanding ruler of their domain. Christ Michael bestowed himself on the following orders of beings within his own creation: A Melchizedek Son, a Lanonandek Son, a Material Son, a seraphim, an ascendant pilgrim of mortal origin assigned to Uversa, a morontia mortal of ascending status, and lastly, as the infant child, Joshua ben Joseph/Jesus, born on August 21, of the year 7 BC, in the city of Bethlehem. After Christ Michael had completed these seven bestowals to the satisfaction of the Ancient of Days and the Universal Father and Eternal Son, he was proclaimed Sovereign of Nebadon. It took one billion years of Urantia time to complete these seven bestowals. He lived identical lives of the beings of his own creation, and did each of them so well that he earned the respect of all beings throughout Nebadon. Urantia was especially fortunate to have received the superb example set by Jesus as he lived an exemplary life dedicated to the will of his Father in Heaven. Urantia is the only inhabited, evolutionary world of 10,000,000 in Nebadon to have had the honor of hosting our Creator Son, Christ Michael on his seventh bestowal mission. [UB, Papers 119 & 120] [pp. 1308-1331]

Mathew
[2001] Secondary Midwayer, not a native of this planet. Only about 3’ tall. He studied us from afar, and elected to join the 11:11 Progress Group of Australia.

Melchizedek Schools
The schools of advanced culture and spirituality found throughout the local universe, and on some of the inhabited planets. Urantia is beginning to be taught by the superb teachers of these schools, through the Correcting Time program. AWe bring forth the inspiration to change parenting and to change institutions of punishment into institutions of loving rehabilitation.@Y AChoose your field of interest or interests, choose your level of commitment now in the coming months and we will continue to work with you in bringing forth these Melchizedek schools from which the curriculum will be clarified, amplified to bring your learning to its fruition, and then to shine forth as beacons. This light will burn ever brighter for your institutions are indeed crumbling. You must reform these institutions in the light of responsibility and service.@ Y AIt is time to quit reciting your despairs and take hold in loving faith accessing these energies through the stillness and take an active hand in helping us reclaim this place, yes?@ [Abraham, circa 1992]

Melchizedek Sons
The Creator Son, Michael and the Creative Spirit, Nebadonia, together created the first Melchizedek, who is called the Father Melchizedek. Then the Father Melchizedek working with Michael and Nebadonia, created the rest of the Melchizedek Sons, numbering more than ten million for service in the Local Universe of Nebadon. They are superb teachers, counselors, observers, and advisors. One of their numbers volunteered to come to Urantia on an emergency bestowal mission to uplift the spiritual climate and keep the belief of one God alive for the terminal bestowal of Michael. This son, Machiventa, has been appointed Planetary Prince of Urantia, and also directs the activities of the Correcting Time for his Sovereign, Michael. Many more Melchizedek sons serve on Urantia, as well as throughout Nebadon. [UB, Paper 35] [p. 384]

Mentori
  They are specialists of all kinds. They are progressive in their ways. They are healers, and they come from many different sources, even from this Super Universe ‘availability.’ So far, as it concerns your additional Midway Helpers, they are from this local universe. A percentage of Mentori Specialists have arrived from far beyond our realm. The greater number of these consists of individuals of different species you have never heard of. They are still unrevealed, but they are specialists.

Merium
Co-taught with Teacher Tomas in the Pittsburgh and Butler Pennsylvania groups, 1997-2000 and is still assigned primarily to that area, although she loves parties and TeaM conferences. Merium is a "young" Teacher. On her home world, she was an only child, just a "teenager" when she left for mansonia. She was like the village babysitter, and was always surrounded by the children, who loved her. She still loves to "get down on the floor and play with her children,” which is what she now considers her mortal associates. She is known for coming in and opening the windows of our minds, to let in fresh air, and for "fluffing up our pillows" after having listened to one of Tomas' ponderous lessons.

Messenger Hosts of Space
AThese versatile beings function as the connecting links between the higher personalities and the ministering spirits.@ They include the Havona Servitals, Universal Conciliators, Technical advisors, Custodians of Records on Paradise, Celestial Recorders, Morontia Companions and Paradise Companions. [UB, Paper 25] [pp 273-283]  

Michael Sons
This order of Divine Creator Sons, some 700,000 in number in the Grand Universe, are created by the Universal Father and the Eternal Son, each known as the Aonly-begotten Son@ because even though they can function in a similar manner, each has an individual personality that makes him unlike any other Michael Son. These Sons are the personification of the Paradise Father-Son, to and in their local universes. Each is destined to form a Local Universe of his own making, and with the Creative Daughter Spirit, to create the living beings that will inhabit this physical creation. Each Michael must earn the right to govern his creation as Sovereign, by completing 7 bestowals, in which he incarnates as a being of each order of beings that he himself, created. In this way he becomes a wise, merciful and loving Brother and Father to his sons and daughters. [UB, Papers 21 & 33] [pp. 234, 366]  

Michael, Christ Michael
Creator Son of Nebadon, Sovereign, Master Son, Lord Jesus and Father/Brother to all beings of his creation. He possesses all the divine attributes and powers of the Eternal Son within Nebadon, and has additional power and authority to fully represent the Universal Father within his local universe. He exerts the same spiritual drawing power and spirit gravity on the local scale that the Father has from Paradise. To our local universe, he represents God; he is omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent. He is ably assisted by his Consort, the Divine Minister, the Universe Mother Spirit of Salvington, Nebadonia. His main concerns within his realm are creation, sustenance and ministry. He does not participate in judicial affairs, as Creators never sit in judgment on their creaturesCthose duties are under the supervision of Gabriel. Legislative and executive functions are largely in the hands of councils. In Administration, he is also assisted by numerous beings from the Superuniverse, such as Trinity ambassadors, at his request. [UB, Paper 33] [p.366]

Midwayers
Born and found on most inhabited worlds. They are invisible to the human eye and exist in-between mortals and the angelic orders in nature and function. They are able to manipulate physical objects, when allowed to do so by their angelic superiors. Of the first group of midwayers, the primary group, there were exactly 50,000 created by Prince Caligastia=s corporeal staff, working for the administration of the Prince. The second group, the secondary midwayers were the offspring of the pure Adamic stock, the children of Adam and Eve mating with the offspring of the members of the Planetary Prince=s staff, for a total of 1,984 of these special beings. Four-fifths of the primary midwayers and 873 of the secondary midwayers joined Caligastia in the rebellion and were removed from Urantia. The remaining 1,111 loyal secondary midwayers, along with the loyal 9,881 primary midwayers, joined forces as the United Midwayers of Urantia and still serve on our planet. Since the adjudication of the Lucifer rebellion, all of the rehabilitated midwayers were returned to service on Urantia, as well as large numbers of midwayers from other worlds settled in light and life, who volunteered to come to Urantia to participate in the Correcting Time. The midwayers serve a valuable function in the communication links between Celestial Teachers and mortals, being well versed in the languages and customs of the mortals. They also assist the seraphim with physical tasks on the evolutionary worlds. [UB, Paper 77] [ p.855] 

Mind, Body & Spirit
Mortal man has at its core, a spirit nucleus; mind is a personal energy system surrounding the divine spirit nucleus and functions in liaison with the material environment. [UB, Paper 12, sec.9] [p. 141] Mind is always dominant over matter and is an indispensable channel of communication between matter and spirit. In relation to personality, the physical is subordinate, the mind co-ordinate, and the spirit is directive. [UB, Paper 116, sec. 6] [p. 1275

Monjoronson
The name of Urantia=s first Magisterial Son, an Avonal Son of Paradise origin, now planning his mission to uplift civilization through a co-creative effort with willing mortals for the healing of our planet. He will incarnate, as did Machiventa some 5,000 years ago, arriving quietly and without fanfare as a fully mature adult male. His mission will not bring sudden change, but a progressive one over the period of a thousand years or more that he will remain on Urantia in visible form. Although he is not yet in material form, he has been very active, teaching various individuals and groups of students within the Teaching Mission and worldwide.  Many transcripts of his lessons can be found in these archives, and on a companion web site: www.monjoronson.com  [Monjoronson, Northern Colorado TeaM, Loveland, CO Sep. 21, 2003]

Monmatia
The Universe name for our solar system. Our sun, created 5 billion years ago, was approached by a neighboring system, Angona, which had a tremendous gravitational pull. It disgorged a large portion of the matter from our sun, a column of gasses pointed on both ends and bulging in the center, which was not captured by Angona or re-captured by the sun. This column of gasses condensed into a series of 10 planets, plus three more that Monmatia captured from Angona. All of Monmatia grew in time with the capture of meteoric material and some of the debris from the Angona system. One of the planets suffered disruption, forming the Asteroid Belt between Mars and Jupiter, and our sun was later able to recapture some of the material extruded as their erratic orbits caused them to stray too near.

Morontia
In the local universe, the morontia realm is the liaison between the material and spirit levels of existence. In a physical sense, it is a semi-material substance composed of varying mixtures of spirit and material energies. The more spiritual the mixture, the lighter the substance. (It is normally invisible to the human eye.) The human soul is formed of this material as it grows during the mortal lifetime. With each step of progress through the morontial career, the ascending mortal becomes slightly less physical and slightly more spiritual, with each transition necessitating a change of the body or Avehicle@ that the budding spirit possesses. There are 570 of these physical to morontial changes until the stage of Apure spirit being@ is attained, when the physical body no longer existsC8 of these changes are made in the system, 71 in the constellation, and 491 on the sphere
