The Spiritual Factor in Jesus' Five Modern Revelations Walker Thomas

Publisher Marketing: The purpose of THE SPIRITUAL FACTOR IN JESUS' FIVE MODERN REVELATIONS is to offer a comprehensive view of the following spiritual texts: 1. The History of the Origin of All Things, 1852 2. The Revealed Translation of John's Revelation, 1908 3. The Historical Fulfillment of John's Revelation, 1908 4. The Urantia Book, 1955 5. A Course in Miracles, 1976 Each of these five books offers us various pieces to the puzzle of the over-arching "architecture of the spirit," which we will now piece together into a full picture that is not available to us by reading any one of these books by itself. We claim this collection of five Revelations represents the highest level of spiritual teachings that has ever been gathered together on the planet; therefore, we have the opportunity to achieve the highest level of spiritual understanding that has ever been achieved on the planet by masses of people--not just isolated individuals like Jesus and Gandhi. That level of spiritual understanding is a treasure worth making our highest priority in life, as Jesus teaches us in THE URANTIA BOOK: "The right to enter the Kingdom is conditioned by faith--personal belief. The cost of remaining in the progressive ascent of the Kingdom is the pearl of great price, in order to possess which a man sells all that he has." This book which focuses on the "pearl of great price" should technically be a part of the preceding book titled: PROPHECY, REVELATION, ARMAGEDDON, and GOD'S KINGDOM as Spelled out by Jesus in Five Modern Revelations In that book, we include the following four chapter titles: I. THE PROPHECY FACTOR II. THE REVELATION FACTOR IIITHE KINGDOM FACTOR IV. THE ARMAGEDDON FACTOR However, the topic of "spirit" is so extensive that it necessitates its own book. Just the last two books alone--THE URANTIA BOOK and A COURSE IN MIRACLES--are both as thick as the Bible; and Jesus' other "general philosophy"--THE HISTORY OF THE ORIGIN OF ALL THINGS--is another 750 pages. So the only way to present the topic of "spirituality" in His books is to offer the tip of the iceberg, then direct readers who want further study to those books which contain it. But the content of this present book comes predominantly from THE URANTIA BOOK because it offers us the most comprehensive and detailed descriptions of this invisible spiritual architecture; then A COURSE IN MIRACLES and THE HISTORY OF THE ORIGIN OF ALL THINGS make up for it when they give us the exact quotations which link all of these books together in very precise ways. Then even this "tip of the iceberg" presentation of THE SPIRITUAL FACTOR IN JESUS' FIVE MODERN REVELATIONS does allow us to see how the pieces of this broader puzzle fit together like we have not been able to present it before while focusing on any one particular book.
