Jesus lived his bestowal life as a revelation of the nature of God--insofar as that nature is comprehensible to mere mortals such as ourselves.
A discerning theologian once commented that the nature of God is best understood through a study of the parables of Jesus. Certainly we can get an idea of what God is like or not like from the parable of the earthly father who would not give his son a stone when he asked for bread nor a serpent if he asked for a fish.
Jesus three favorite parables were the prodigal son, the widow's lost coin, and the lost sheep-- which he used to show that God comes forth seeking for the sinner and that God's mercy has no bounds for those who ask.
Gradually, most of us will learn that the most important of all knowledge contained in the Urantia Papers really is the religious life of Jesus and how he lived it.
