1:1.4 Near the [[center]] of the [[Grand Universe|universe of universes]], the Universal Father is generally known by [[names]] which may be regarded as meaning the First Source. Farther out in the universes of space, the terms employed to designate the Universal Father more often mean the Universal Center. Still farther out in the starry [[creation]], he is known, as on the [[Salvington|headquarters world]] of your [[local universe]], as the First Creative Source and Divine Center. In one near-by [[constellation]] God is called the Father of Universes. In another, the Infinite Upholder, and to the east, the Divine Controller. He has also been designated the Father of Lights, the Gift of Life, and the All-powerful One.

1:1.5 On those worlds where a [Paper 20 - The Paradise Sons of God|Paradise Son]] has lived a [[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_20#20:5._BESTOWAL_OF_THE_PARADISE_SONS_OF_GOD bestowal life], God is generally known by some name indicative of [[personal]] [[relationship]], tender [[affection]], and [[Fatherhood|fatherly]] [[devotion]]. On your [[Edentia|constellation headquarters]] God is referred to as the Universal Father, and on different [[planets]] in your [[Satania|local system]] of inhabited worlds he is variously known as the Father of Fathers, the [[Paradise]] Father, the [[Havona]] Father, and the Spirit Father. Those who know God through the [[revelations]] of the bestowals of the Paradise Sons, eventually yield to the sentimental appeal of the [[touching]] [[relationship]] of the creature-Creator association and refer to God as "our Father."

1:1.6 On a [[planet]] of [[sex]] [[creatures]], in a world where the impulses of [[parental]] [[emotion]] are inherent in the [[hearts]] of its intelligent beings, the term Father becomes a very [[expressive]] and appropriate name for the eternal God. He is best known, most universally acknowledged, on your planet, [[Urantia]], by the name [[God]]. The name he is given is of little importance; the significant thing is that you should know him and aspire to be like him. Your [[prophets]] of old truly called him "the everlasting God" and referred to him as the one who "inhabits eternity."
