Urantia Book : [|Forward]: [|III. THE FIRST SOURCE AND CENTER]

[|Audio Version]

0:3.1 Total, infinite reality is existential in seven phases and as seven co-ordinate Absolutes:


 * 1) The First Source and Center
 * 2) The Second Source and Center
 * 3) The Third Source and Center
 * 4) The Isle of Paradise
 * 5) The Deity Absolute
 * 6) The Universal Absolute
 * 7) The Unqualified Absolute

0:3.2 God, as the First Source and Center, is primal in relation to total reality—unqualifiedly. The First Source and Center is infinite as well as eternal and is therefore limited or conditioned only by volition.

0:3.3 God—the Universal Father—is the personality of the First Source and Center and as such maintains personal relations of infinite control over all co-ordinate and subordinate sources and centers. Such control is personal and infinite in //potential,// even though it may never actually function owing to the perfection of the function of such co-ordinate and subordinate sources and centers and personalities.

0:3.4 The First Source and Center is, therefore, primal in all domains: deified or undeified, personal or impersonal, actual or potential, finite or infinite. No thing or being, no relativity or finality, exists except in direct or indirect relation to, and dependence on, the primacy of the First Source and Center.

0:3.5 //The First Source and Center// is related to the universe as:


 * 0:3.6 The gravity forces of the material universes are convergent in the Infinite Spirit; gravity center of nether Paradise That is just why the geographic location of his person is eternally fixed in absolute relation to the force-energy center of the nether or material plane of Paradise. But the absolute personality of Paradise exists on the [|upper or spiritual plane of Paradise].
 * 0:3.7 The mind forces are convergent in the Infinite Spirit; the differential and divergent cosmic mind in the Seven Master Spirits; the factualizing mind of the Supreme as a time-space experience in Masjeston
 * 0:3.8 The universe spirit forces are convergent in the Eternal Son.
 * 0:3.9 The unlimited capacity for deity action resides in the Deity Absolute.
 * 0:3.10 The unlimited capacity for infinity response exists in the Unqualified Absolute.
 * 0:3.11 The two —Qualified and Unqualified—are co-ordinated and unified in and by the Universal Absolute.
 * 0:3.12 The potential personality of an evolutionary moral being or of any other moral being is centered in the personality of the Universal Father.
