Discussion Questions
for a study of
The Urantia Book
by Dr. Meredith J. Sprunger
Paper 182: In the Garden of Gethsemane
1. Why was it the Father's will that the Jewish leaders be allowed to execute Jesus?
2. Why didn't the other apostles advance the same reasons Nathaniel gave for not taking a sword?
3. Along with David Zebedee and John Mark, who are the unsung heroes of Jesus' ministry?
4. Is it comforting to know that the human Jesus wanted confirmation of the Father's will?
5. How do you think Jesus' prayer to the Father in Gethsemane was revealed to the New Testament writers?
6. From a human point of view, does it appear that Jesus' attempt to win his Jewish people to accept the gospel was a failure?
7. Does Jesus' mastery of his human nature give us confidence that we can master our human nature through the power of the Father's indwelling Spirit?
8. Do you think Christ Michael had some special meetings with the apostles after they became morontia personalities?
9. Why is there already a lack of unity in the Urantia movement?
10. What type of being do you think ran with Jacob to Philadelphia?
11. What type of beings might have been "the division commanders of these armies of heaven?"
