SURGEON Once said;

"You will never know the FULNESS of Christ until you know the EMPTINESS of everything without Christ"

The Meaning:

1. True fulfillment and purpose come only from a personal relationship with Christ (Jesus).
2. Seeking happiness and meaning outside of God's will leads to emptiness and dissatisfaction.
3. Recognizing the inadequacy of worldly pursuits and human achievements (emptiness) is a precursor to discovering Christ's transformative power (fullness).

The Urantia Book Concepts:

1. Inner emptiness: A natural result of separating from God's will (Paper 103:5.1-2).
2. Spiritual hunger: A drive to seek true fulfillment in Christ (Paper 100:5.2).
3. Cosmic citizenship: Recognizing Christ as the foundation of spiritual identity (Paper 140:10).

This statement encourages seekers to:

1. Acknowledge the limitations of worldly pursuits.
2. Seek Christ as the source of true fulfillment.
3. Experience spiritual transformation through a personal relationship with Jesus.

The Maturing Person

"The evidence of maturity of personality consists in the transformation of human desire so that it constantly seeks...those values which are highest and most divinely real." 160:1.13

What does this make you feel: "Parents are duly rewarded by the excellency of their children, and purely religious leaders, being ambassadors of a spiritual kingdom, receive their real rewards in another world."?
