    Dear Truth, Beauty, Goodness Lovers,

    There are 84 TBG quotes in the UB, from page 3 of the Foreword, to the last paragraph of the last page. The authors wanted us to know TBG are universal themes. We will follow them all the way to Paradise where we will meet God who is the source of Truth, Beauty and Goodness.

    There are areas of the book that have more concentrated teachings on TB&G. For example the sixth and seventh Sections of Paper 2 (The Goodness of God, and Divine Truth and Beauty) have three pages that actually define the nature, values, and character of God the Universal Father, like nothing before.

    TBG Quotes 5-11 are all from those two Sections. And all are about God’s personal values. Quote ten ties our physical, emotional, and mental well being in with truth, beauty and goodness:

    10. …Health, sanity, and happiness are integrations of truth, beauty, and goodness as they are blended in human experience…. (43.4) 2:7.11

    But Paper 56, Section 10, titled “Truth, Beauty and Goodness”, may be the gravity center of the revelators’ essential statements on these three words that represent God’s values, character and nature. Its three pages have eight of the 84 uses of truth, beauty and goodness, numbers 23-30.

    Jesus also uses TBG, seven times. This is the last one:

    72. “…It is the love of God that impels men to seek salvation. Love is the ancestor of all spiritual goodness, the essence of the true and the beautiful….” (2047.5) 192:2.1
