A concept derived from the story of Melchizedek in the Urantia
Book:
About 4000 years ago, this priest of Salem declared "I am
Melchizedek, priest of El Elyon, the Most High, the one and only
God" (93:2.1). A decade later, Melchizedek sent an invitation to
Abraham, saying "Come to Salem, where you shall hear our teachings
of the truth of the eternal Creator" (93:5.5).
"And this preacher of a supernal God never ceased to proclaim
this God of love. 'I dwell in the high and holy place, also with
him who is of contrite and humble spirit.' And once again did the
fear-destroying gospel of Melchizedek shine forth for the blessing
of mankind" (97:7.12).
In the spirit of Melchizedek, our planet's third epochal
revelation, this "Urantia Blessing" has again appeared with the
arrival of our fifth epochal revelation, the Urantia Papers. The
Papers were received in the early decades of the 20th century then
compiled later to create the Urantia Book, first published in
1955.
This new concept of "the Urantia Blessing" (theUB) includes all
five epochal revelations as described in the Urantia Papers: "There
have been many events of religious revelation but only five of
epochal significance" (92:4.4).
These five epochal revelations begin with the Dalamatian
teachings (early humans) and are followed consecutively by the
Edenic teachings (Adam and Eve), Melchizedek of Salem, Jesus of
Nazareth and the Urantia Papers.
