God's power reigns supreme as all energy circulates in an orderly procession around Paradise. 3:2.4
The master universe, though appearing almost infinite, is actually circular and delimited, with physical limits and dimensions, ultimately bound by the presence of the Unqualified Absolute. 12:0.2-3 (12:1.1,16) 105:3.7
The grand universe, consisting of the seven evolving superuniverses and the central and divine universe, forms a vital component of the master universe, encompassing both organized and inhabited creations as well as uninhabited but mobilizing universes of outer space. 0:0.6
The master universe contains an infinite number of suns, just like the countless glasses of water in the oceans of Urantia. 15:6.10
