The Revelatory Commission is hereby offering a solution to this default. This offer is directed to all in this dispute, after a solemn petition of certain Urantian mortals, each from one of all three factions, who made requests to the [[25:2|Conciliating Commission]] of Urantia sojourn to intercede in this matter. Your default has been adjudged by them, and it is their [[judgment]] and their solution that will be forthcoming later in this narrative.

First must needs be an explanation of the nature, reason, [[intent]], and goals set forth by the [[First Revelatory Commission|Revelatory Commission]] for the Fifth Epochal Revelation known as ''The Urantia Book''. These are set forth as Publication [[Mandates]] that are incorporated in the [http://www.urantia.org/urantia-foundation/declaration-trust Declaration of Trust of Urantia Foundation], in the Constitution and bylaws respectively of [http://www.urantiabook.org/?gclid=CJ_mw7DmptECFYmffgod3kEAgA The Urantia Book Fellowship] and [http://urantia-association.org/ Urantia Association International], and in other instructions in other sources. It is also necessary to understand the nature of the [[92:4|epochs of man and corresponding revelations]]. For each of man‘s epochs has attached to it an epochal revelation that was given in advance to meet its future goals, needs, and enhancement of the status of humankind.

But as you know, such was not the case. Adam and Eve found Urantians then extant too [[difficult]] to harness and they defaulted their trust after only a hundred years. While some of their offspring did enter the human gene pool and found some success, it was not what was planned (mandated to the pair) and many of the world‘s inhabitants have had little or no part in their biological upliftment and corresponding cultural and [[spiritual growth]]. Multiple, devastating diseases resulted from the default, perpetuated and unresolved to this day.

*<u>The Spiritual Enlightenment and Epochal Revelation of Christ Michael</u>

Although Christ [[Michael]] lived a victorious life on as earth as the Paradise [[Bestowal Son]] of Nebadon, the religion that bears his name on Urantia today hardly carries his original message to the world, nor embodies his superb spiritual teachings. Like the telephone game in which twenty children line up, and the first one is told a story to pass on to the second child, who tells it to the third, and so on, the story becomes distorted until the twentieth child speaks a story totally unlike the first, [[Christianity]] passed the teachings of [[Jesus]] from the [[Paper 121|First Century]] through each generation to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/20th_century Twentieth Century]. You are now the 21st children in line hearing distorted forms of his teachings, having multitudinous churches who by [[ritual]] and [[dogma]] teach, not his religion—the religion of Jesus that you are born as the children of God, that God is your Father, and that you are brothers and sisters, and that the [[Ta|Father‘s Spirit]] indwells all—but primarily a religion about him, leaving out his supernal life in the process. As a result, the true religion of Jesus prevails among a relative few of his believers. Again, Epochal Revelation has been thwarted.
