Let it be made clear to you each .. from the Universal Father who inhabits eternity there has gone forth the supreme mandate, “Be you perfect, even as I am perfect.”
In love and mercy the messengers of Paradise have carried this divine exhortation down through the ages and out through the universes, even to such lowly animal-origin creatures as the human races of Urantia.
1:0.4 (22.1) This magnificent and universal injunction to strive for the attainment of the perfection of divinity is the first duty, and should be the highest ambition, of all the struggling creature creation of the God of perfection.
This possibility of the attainment of divine perfection is the final and certain destiny of all man’s eternal spiritual progress.
It is for this express purpose that the Order of Michael reaches into creation .. I am that farthest point of God the Sevenfold extending outward from Paradise with the express purpose and mission to teach and guide moral personhood and ethical personality how to elevate their potentiality of imperfect mortality into the perfected ideal bringing to the individual immortality and actualization.
