176:4.1 Of all [[the Master]]'s [[teachings]] no one [[phase]] has been so misunderstood as his [[promise]] sometime to come back in [[person]] to this world. It is not [[strange]] that [[Michael]] should be interested in sometime returning to the [[planet]] whereon he experienced his [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_119#119:7._THE_SEVENTH_AND_FINAL_BESTOWAL seventh and last bestowal], as a [[mortal]] of the realm. It is only [[natural]] to [[believe]] that [[Jesus]] of [[Nazareth]], now [[Master Son|sovereign ruler]] of a [[Nebadon|vast universe]], would be interested in coming back, not only once but even many times, to the world whereon he lived such a [[unique]] life and finally won for himself [[the Father]]'s unlimited [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_21#21:3._LOCAL_UNIVERSE_SOVEREIGNTY bestowal of universe power and authority]. [[Urantia]] will [[eternally]] be one of the [[seven]] [[nativity]] [[spheres]] of [[Michael]] in the winning of [[universe]] [[sovereignty]].

176:4.2 [[Jesus]] did, on numerous occasions and to many [[individuals]], [[declare]] his [[intention]] of returning to this world. As his followers [[awakened]] to the [[fact]] that [[the Master|their Master]] was not going to [[function]] as a [[Messiah|temporal deliverer]], and as they [[listened]] to his [[predictions]] of the overthrow of [[Jerusalem]] and the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Destruction_of_Jerusalem#Destruction_of_Jerusalem downfall of the Jewish nation], they most [[naturally]] began to [[associate]] his [[promised]] return with these [[catastrophic]] [[events]]. But when the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_army Roman armies] leveled the walls of [[Jerusalem]], destroyed [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_temple the temple], and [[dispersed]] the [[Judea]]n [[Jews]], and still [[the Master]] did not [[reveal]] himself in [[power]] and [[glory]], his followers began the [[formulation]] of that [[belief]] which [[eventually]] [[associated]] the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_coming second coming of Christ] with the end of the [[Epoch|age]], even with the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eschatology end of the world].

176:4.3 [[Jesus]] [[promised]] to do [[two]] [[things]] after he had [[ascended]] to [[the Father]], and after all [[power]] in [[heaven]] and on [[earth]] had been placed in his hands. He [[promised]], first, to send into the world, and in his stead, another [[teacher]], the [[Spirit of Truth]]; and this he did on the day of [[Pentecost]]. Second, he most certainly [[promised]] his followers that he would sometime [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_coming second personally return to this world]. But he did not say how, where, or when he would revisit this [[planet]] of his [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_119#119:7._THE_SEVENTH_AND_FINAL_BESTOWAL bestowal experience in the flesh]. On one occasion he intimated that, whereas the eye of [[flesh]] had beheld him when he lived here in the [[flesh]], on his return (at least on one of his possible [[visits]]) he would be [[discern]]ed only by the eye of [[spiritual]] [[faith]].

176:4.4 Many of us are inclined to [[believe]] that [[Jesus]] will return to [[Urantia]] many times during the [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_52 ages to come]. We do not have his specific [[promise]] to make these plural [[visits]], but it seems most [[probable]] that he who carries among his universe titles that of [[Planetary Prince]] of [[Urantia]] will many times [[visit]] the world whose conquest conferred such a [[unique]] title upon him.
