God is not only the determiner of destiny; he is man’s eternal destination. All nonreligious human activities seek to bend the universe to the distorting service of self; the truly religious individual seeks to identify the self with the universe and then to dedicate the activities of this unified self to the service of the universe family of fellow beings, human and superhuman.5:4.3 | http://mm.spiritualfamily.net/Urantia_Book-Online_Reader-2019/Paper_005.html#5:4.3
Forewarn all believers regarding the fringe of conflict which must be traversed by all who pass from the life as it is lived in the flesh to the higher life as it is lived in the spirit. To those who live quite wholly within either realm, there is little conflict or confusion, but all are doomed to experience more or less uncertainty during the times of transition between the two levels of living. In entering the kingdom, you cannot escape its responsibilities or avoid its obligations, but remember: The gospel yoke is easy and the burden of truth is light. ~Jesus~ 159:3.7 | http://mm.spiritualfamily.net/Urantia_Book-Online_Reader-2019/Paper_159.html#159:3.7
The Father "No man in this world now sees the Father except the Son who came forth from the Father. But if the Son be lifted up, he will draw all men to himself, and whosoever believes this truth of the combined nature of the Son shall be endowed with life that is more than age-abiding." 157:6.10 | https://spiritualfamily.net/photos/thumbnail/70413/master/
