[[Christ]] [[Michael]] presented for the fourth time to [[Urantia]] the [[concept]] of [[God]] as the [[Universal Father]], and this teaching has generally persisted ever since. The [[essence]] of his teaching was [[love]] and [[service]], the loving [[worship]] which a [[creature]] son [[voluntarily]] gives in [[recognition]] of, and [[response]] to, the loving [[ministry]] of [[God]] his [[Father]]; the [[freewill]] [[service]] which such [[creature]] sons [[bestow]] upon their brethren in the [[joyous]] [[realization]] that in this [[service]] they are likewise serving [[God]] [[the Father]].[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_92#92:4._THE_GIFT_OF_REVELATION]
*'''''The first century after Christ.'''''
As a [[religious]] [[teacher]], [[Jesus]] of [[Nazareth]] started out with the [[cult]] which had been [[established]] by [[John the Baptist]] and progressed as far as he could away from fasts and forms. Aside from [[Jesus]], [[Paul, the Apostle|Paul of Tarsus]] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philo_of_Alexandria Philo of Alexandria] were the greatest [[teachers]] of this era.
