This week we continue our study of Urantia Paper 36 — The Life Carriers. This is the amazing and extraordinary story of the beings who initiate life on the inhabitable worlds of space.  LIFE does not originate spontaneously. Life is constructed according to plans formulated by the (unrevealed) Architects of Being and appears on the inhabited planets either by direct importation or as a result of the operations of the Life Carriers of the local universes. These carriers of life are among the most interesting and versatile of the diverse family of universe Sons. They are intrusted with designing and carrying creature life to the planetary spheres. And after planting this life on such new worlds, they remain there for long periods to foster its development. (36:0.1) The Life Carriers are devoted to the study of universe life and are involved in new life design, life preservation, evolution of creature life, life associated with mind, the correlation of mind with spirit in living organisms, and in unrevealed domains of evolutionary creature life. So far, we've covered these sections: 1.Origin and Nature of Life Carriers 2.The Life Carrier Worlds 3.Life Transplantation This week were are on Section 4.Melchizedek Life Carriers Life does not spontaneously appear in the universes; the Life Carriers must initiate it on the barren planets. They are the carriers, disseminators, and guardians of life as it appears on the evolutionary worlds of space. All life of the order and forms known on Urantia arises with these Sons, though not all forms of planetary life are existent on Urantia. (36:3.1) Join us for another fascinating study from The Urantia Book!
