Thomas's Admiration for Jesus's Balanced Character
Excerpt from, Son of Man: Urantia, Chapter 18, pt. 2, The Twelve Apostles
Thomas encouraged many troubled minds to come into the kingdom, even though he could not understand all of Jesus' spiritual and philosophical teachings. Thomas revered Jesus because of his matchless symmetry and superbly balanced character. The fact that Jesus was... so just yet so merciful. Thomas admired that Jesus was firm but never obstinate, calm but never indifferent, tender but never vacillating, positive but never rough or rude, strong but at the same time gentle, pure and innocent, but at the same time virile, humorous and playful, but free from levity and frivolity. Truly courageous, but never rash, forceful or foolhardy. Helpful and sympathetic, but never meddlesome or dictatorial. And a true lover of nature, but free from all tendency to revere nature.
