Urantia Book Society of Oklahoma

On August 21, 2008, Jessica Hester was inducted into our Society. Beginning with a quote from Jesus from the Urantia Book, Paper 133:5.6, Tom Allen as membership chairman used this oath:

Do you desire to know more about God and His Universe as you understand Him both in your personal experience and in your belief in the teachings of the Urantia Book?

Are you willing to continue to study the Urantia Book and attempt to live your life and foster your spiritual growth according to your highest comprehension of its teachings?

Are you willing to abide by the constitutions of the Fellowship and Urantia Book Society of Oklahoma and to support its purpose to promote through fraternal association, the sudy and dissemination of the Urantia Book and its teachings?

On behalf of the Urantia Book Society of Oklahoma, I hereby welcome you to our Fellowship and look forward to the many contributions you make to the Supreme in and through our fraternal association.

This is the old membership oath:

MEMBERSHIP OATH:

You have become a student of the Urantia Book in order to know more about God. The Book has two major purposes - to save men's souls and to illuminate men's minds. We know we are amateurs and we all feel very inadequate for the task of spreading the revelation of God and his universe which has been given to us in The Urantia Book. Jesus was a revelation of God and the Urantia Book further reveals some of the plans this loving Father has for his children and some facts about his universe.

As a student of the Book you have indicated your wish to become a member of the First Society of Oklahoma. Your KEY is "Sincerity, sincerity, and more sincerity."

Do you ____, ___________, _______ (fill in the names) have a sincere interest in and a willingness to understand - the teaching of the Urantia Book? Do each of you desire to join the First Society of Oklahoma - whose by-laws and constitution ,along with those of the Fellowship, you agree to accept and abide by? Now being fully cognizant of the obligations and privileges, that go with your acceptance of these "teachings," you have herewith pledged you will ever be alert to opportunities for service, in the brotherhood of man under the Fatherhood of God.

Welcome to our fellowship!
