4:5.1 [[Religious]] [[tradition]] is the imperfectly preserved [[record]] of the [[experiences]] of the [[God]]-knowing men of [[History|past ages]], but such records are untrustworthy as [[guides]] for religious living or as the [[source]] of true [[information]] about the [[Universal Father]]. Such ancient [[beliefs]] have been invariably altered by the [[fact]] that primitive man was a [[myth]]maker.

4:5.2 One of the greatest sources of [[confusion]] on [[Urantia]] concerning the [[nature]] of [[God]] grows out of the [[failure]] of your [http://institute.daynal.org/books/extended_reference/humanities/religion/sacred/sacred_texts.html sacred books] clearly to distinguish between the [[personalities]] of the [[Paradise Trinity]] and between [[Paradise]] [[Deity]] and the [[local universe]] [[Creator Sons|creators]] and [[Paper 33 - Administration of the Local Universe|administrators]]. During the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_92#92:4._THE_GIFT_OF_REVELATION past dispensations of partial understanding], your [[priests]] and [[prophets]] failed clearly to differentiate between [[Planetary Princes]], [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_15#15:2._ORGANIZATION_OF_THE_SUPERUNIVERSES System Sovereigns], [[Constellation Fathers]], [[Creator Sons]], [[Ancients of Days|Superuniverse Rulers]], the [[Supreme Being]], and the [[Universal Father]]. Many of the messages of subordinate personalities, such as [[Life Carriers]] and [[Paper 114 - The Seraphic Planetary Government|various orders of angels]], have been, in your [[records]], presented as coming from [[God]] himself. [[Urantia]]n [[religious]] [[thought]] still confuses the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associativity associate] [[personalities]] of [[Deity]] with the [[Universal Father]] himself, so that all are included under one appellation.

4:5.3 The people of [[Urantia]] continue to suffer from the [[influence]] of [[primitive]] [[concepts]] of God. The gods who go on a rampage in the storm; who shake the [[earth]] in their wrath and strike down men in their [[anger]]; who inflict their [[judgments]] of displeasure in times of [[Catastrophism|famine and flood]]—these are the gods of primitive religion; they are not the Gods who live and [[Administration|rule]] the [[Grand Universe|universes]]. Such concepts are a [[relic]] of the times when men supposed that the [[universe]] was under the [[guidance]] and [[Power|domination]] of the whims of such [[imaginary]] gods. But mortal man is beginning to [[realize]] that he lives in a realm of [[Relative|comparative]] [[law]] and [[Cosmos|order]] as far as concerns the [[administrative]] [[policies]] and conduct of the [[Supreme Creators]] and the Supreme Controllers.
