The Bestowals of Christ Michael

119:6.1Now that all Sal­ving­ton was fa­mil­iar with the pre­lim­i­nar­ies of an im­pend­ing be­stowal, Mi­chael called the so­journ­ers on the head­quar­ters planet to­gether and, for the first time, un­folded the re­main­der of the in­car­na­tion plan, an­nounc­ing that he was soon to leave Sal­ving­ton for the pur­pose of as­sum­ing the ca­reer of a mor­ontia mor­tal at the courts of the Most High Fa­thers on the head­quar­ters planet of the fifth con­stel­la­tion. And then we heard for the first time the an­nounce­ment that his sev­enth and fi­nal be­stowal would be made on some evo­lu­tion­ary world in the like­ness of mor­tal flesh.

119:6.2Be­fore leav­ing Sal­ving­ton for the sixth be­stowal, Mi­chael ad­dressed the as­sem­bled in­hab­i­tants of the sphere and de­parted in full view of ev­ery­one, ac­com­pa­nied by a lone ser­a­phim and the Bright and Morn­ing Star of Neb­a­don. While the di­rec­tion of the uni­verse had again been in­trusted to Im­manuel, there was a wider dis­tri­bu­tion of ad­min­is­tra­tive re­spon­si­bil­i­ties.

119:6.3Mi­chael ap­peared on the head­quar­ters of con­stel­la­tion five as a full-fledged mor­ontia mor­tal of as­cend­ing sta­tus. I re­gret that I am for­bid­den to re­veal the de­tails of this un­num­bered mor­ontia mor­tal’s ca­reer, for it was one of the most ex­traor­di­nary and amaz­ing epochs in Mi­chael’s be­stowal ex­pe­ri­ence, not even ex­cept­ing his dra­matic and tragic so­journ on Uran­tia. But among the many re­stric­tions im­posed upon me in ac­cept­ing this com­mis­sion is one which for­bids my un­der­tak­ing to un­fold the de­tails of this won­der­ful ca­reer of Mi­chael as the mor­ontia mor­tal of En­dan­tum.

119:6.4When Mi­chael re­turned from this mor­ontia be­stowal, it was ap­par­ent to all of us that our Cre­ator had be­come a fel­low crea­ture, that the Uni­verse Sov­er­eign was also the friend and sym­pa­thetic helper of even the low­est form of cre­ated in­tel­li­gence in his realms. We had noted this pro­gres­sive ac­quire­ment of the crea­ture’s view­point in uni­verse ad­min­is­tra­tion be­fore this, for it had been grad­u­ally ap­pear­ing, but it be­came more ap­par­ent af­ter the com­ple­tion of the mor­ontia mor­tal be­stowal, even still more so af­ter his re­turn from the ca­reer of the car­pen­ter’s son on Uran­tia.

119:6.5We were in­formed in ad­vance by Ga­briel of the time of Mi­chael’s re­lease from the mor­ontia be­stowal, and ac­cord­ingly we ar­ranged a suit­able re­cep­tion on Sal­ving­ton. Mil­lions upon mil­lions of be­ings were as­sem­bled from the con­stel­la­tion head­quar­ters worlds of Neb­a­don, and a ma­jor­ity of the so­journ­ers on the worlds ad­ja­cent to Sal­ving­ton were gath­ered to­gether to wel­come him back to the ruler­ship of his uni­verse. In re­sponse to our many ad­dresses of wel­come and ex­pres­sions of ap­pre­ci­a­tion of a Sov­er­eign so vi­tally in­ter­ested in his crea­tures, he only replied: “I have sim­ply been about my Fa­ther’s busi­ness. I am only do­ing the plea­sure of the Par­a­dise Sons who love and crave to un­der­stand their crea­tures.”

119:6.6But from that day down to the hour when Mi­chael em­barked upon his Uran­tia ad­ven­ture as the Son of Man, all Neb­a­don con­tin­ued to dis­cuss the many ex­ploits of their Sov­er­eign Ruler as he func­tioned on En­dan­tum as the be­stowal in­car­na­tion of a mor­ontia mor­tal of evo­lu­tion­ary as­cen­sion, be­ing in all points tested like his fel­lows as­sem­bled from the ma­te­rial worlds of the en­tire con­stel­la­tion of his so­journ.
