This week on The Cosmic Citizen we will continue our study of Urantia Paper 10, The Paradise Trinity, with Section 2. Deity Personalization and maybe we'll get to Section 3. The Three Persons of Deity. Last week we talked a little bit about the author of Paper 10, a Universal Censor. We read that, "These unique beings are the judgment of Deity. They are not merely reflective of the decisions of perfection; they are the judgment of the Paradise Trinity. Even the Ancients of Days do not sit in judgment except in association with the Universal Censors." (19:4.1) We also read, "The Censors are universe totaling personalities. When a thousand witnesses have given testimony—or a million—when the voice of wisdom has spoken and the counsel of divinity has recorded, when the testimony of ascendant perfection has been added, then the Censor functions, and there is immediately revealed an unerring and divine totaling of all that has transpired; and such a disclosure represents the divine conclusion, the sum and substance of a final and perfect decision. Therefore, when a Censor has spoken, no one else may speak, for the Censor has depicted the true and unmistakable total of all that has gone before. When he speaks, there is no appeal." (19:4.5) How enthralling it is to read Paper 10, and the assessment of the Trinity, from such a being! This paper is nothing if not enthralling. The Universal Father, the Eternal Son, and the Infinite Spirit are unique persons, each is original, and all are united. They can act personally and collectively in seven possible combinations: Father alone, Son alone, Spirit alone, Father-Son, Father-Spirit, Son-Spirit, and Father-Son-Spirit. It is inevitable then, that the universe appears in seven variations of values, meanings, and personalities. Join us as we explore these Pillars of Creation...the Trinity!
