THAT'S the scary part...
20 Then Jesus went home, but again a crowd gathered. There were so many people that Jesus and his followers could not eat. 21 When his family heard this, they went to get him because they thought he was out of his mind. 22 But the teachers of the law from Jerusalem were saying, “Beelzebul is living inside him! He uses power from the ruler of demons to force demons out of people.”

Just because you find a parallel, that doesn't mean it applies.
example:
Matthew 27:5 So Judas... hanged himself.
Luke 10:37b "...Go and do likewise."
The Urantia Papers have so many problems, and I've pointed out some real doozies in thread,
that you CAN'T take them seriously.
I mean, yes, I know Stevie Ray, Jerry Garcia, and Kerry and a few other 'stars' you like were UB,
but that doesn't make them 'true.' All of those guys had fried a few of their brain-cells before that.
That'd about have to happen for someone like me, because I've proved a couple of verses were just like
the Book of Mormon: making ridiculous claims that cannot possibly be true.
True, "star power" is kind of silly in my opinion, the papers stand on their own, they are compelling all by themselves. We have no guru or leader or doctrine or church. Most of us read and try to live the teachings quite on our own.
I don't recall you ever proving anything that couldn't possibly be true? When was that?
These are the 5 epochal revelations that have occurred thus far on our world beginning with the "planetary prince" (the invisible to human eyes representative of Christ Michael who joined the Lucifer rebellion and took the world into darkness)
(1007.5) 92:4.5 1. The Dalamatian teachings. The true concept of the First Source and Center was first promulgated on Urantia by the one hundred corporeal members of Prince Caligastia’s staff. This expanding revelation of Deity went on for more than three hundred thousand years until it was suddenly terminated by the planetary secession and the disruption of the teaching regime. Except for the work of Van, the influence of the Dalamatian revelation was practically lost to the whole world. Even the Nodites had forgotten this truth by the time of Adam’s arrival. Of all who received the teachings of the one hundred, the red men held them longest, but the idea of the Great Spirit was but a hazy concept in Amerindian religion when contact with Christianity greatly clarified and strengthened it.
(1007.6) 92:4.6 2. The Edenic teachings. Adam and Eve again portrayed the concept of the Father of all to the evolutionary peoples. The disruption of the first Eden halted the course of the Adamic revelation before it had ever fully started. But the aborted teachings of Adam were carried on by the Sethite priests, and some of these truths have never been entirely lost to the world. The entire trend of Levantine religious evolution was modified by the teachings of the Sethites. But by 2500 B.C. mankind had largely lost sight of the revelation sponsored in the days of Eden.
(1007.7) 92:4.7 3. Melchizedek of Salem. This emergency Son of Nebadon inaugurated the third revelation of truth on Urantia. The cardinal precepts of his teachings were trust and faith. He taught trust in the omnipotent beneficence of God and proclaimed that faith was the act by which men earned God’s favor. His teachings gradually commingled with the beliefs and practices of various evolutionary religions and finally developed into those theologic systems present on Urantia at the opening of the first millennium after Christ.
(1008.1) 92:4.8 4. Jesus of Nazareth. Christ Michael presented for the fourth time to Urantia the concept of God as the Universal Father, and this teaching has generally persisted ever since. The essence of his teaching was love and service, the loving worship which a creature son voluntarily gives in recognition of, and response to, the loving ministry of God his Father; the freewill service which such creature sons bestow upon their brethren in the joyous realization that in this service they are likewise serving God the Father.
(1008.2) 92:4.9 5. The Urantia Papers. The papers, of which this is one, constitute the most recent presentation of truth to the mortals of Urantia. These papers differ from all previous revelations, for they are not the work of a single universe personality but a composite presentation by many beings. But no revelation short of the attainment of the Universal Father can ever be complete. All other celestial ministrations are no more than partial, transient, and practically adapted to local conditions in time and space. While such admissions as this may possibly detract from the immediate force and authority of all revelations, the time has arrived on Urantia when it is advisable to make such frank statements, even at the risk of weakening the future influence and authority of this, the most recent of the revelations of truth to the mortal races of Urantia.

(602.3) 53:1.6 "The dragon eventually became the symbolic representation of all these evil personages. Upon the triumph of Michael, “Gabriel came down from Salvington and bound the dragon (all the rebel leaders) for an age.” Of the Jerusem seraphic rebels it is written: “And the angels who kept not their first estate but left their own habitation, he has reserved in sure chains of darkness to the judgment of the great day.”

Dottie: I don't understand.
Pee-wee: "You don't wanna get mixed up with a guy like me. I'm a loner, Dottie. A rebel. So long, Dott."

Those of us who are born again Christians do nothing of ourselves. We read to gain knowledge of God, Who lives in us. He teaches us and leads us into ALL Truth. His Word is sound doctrine. He is our Leader. He is alive. That cannot be said for the god of Urantia.

I think it's interesting to note that the opening post of this thread is respectful of the fact that the Urantia writings are pure science fiction. :thumb:
I think it's interesting that the people who hated Jesus are just like you, they saw Satan and demons everywhere. :devil:
True!

:nono: Not even a little bit.
Yeah you do. It was a guy laying in bed rattling off stuff off the top
of his head about his own theories and theologies, the same with Joseph Smith.
:sigh: "Search this Thread," Advanced, type in "Lon" for user name,
hit "Search Now." Half of my posts quote the Ub and then show why those quotes are terrible.
