*"These states, having abandoned the twin sophistries of sovereignty and self-determination, enjoy interstate peace and tranquility. So will the nations of Urantia begin to enjoy peace when they freely surrender their respective sovereignties into the hands of a global government -- the sovereignty of the brotherhood of men. In this world state the small nations will be as powerful as the great, even as the small state of Rhode Island has its two senators in the American Congress just the same as the populous state of New York or the large state of Texas.

Jesus' teachings at Urmia, as adapted to twentieth-century religious and political conditions continued:
    
*"The limited (state) sovereignty of these states were created by men and for men. The super state (national) sovereignty of the American Federal Union was created by the original thirteen of these states for their own benefit and for the benefit of men. Sometime the super national sovereignty of the planetary government of mankind will be similarly created by nations for their own benefit and for the benefit of all men.
