The Paradise Sons of God

Perfector of Wisdom

20:0.1As they func­tion in the super­uni­verse of Or­von­ton, the Sons of God are clas­si­fied un­der three gen­eral heads:

20:0.21. The De­scend­ing Sons of God.

20:0.32. The As­cend­ing Sons of God.

20:0.43. The Trin­i­tized Sons of God.

20:0.5De­scend­ing or­ders of son­ship in­clude per­son­al­i­ties who are of di­rect and di­vine cre­ation. As­cend­ing sons, such as mor­tal crea­tures, achieve this sta­tus by ex­pe­ri­en­tial par­tic­i­pa­tion in the cre­ative tech­nique known as evo­lu­tion. Trin­i­tized Sons are a group of com­pos­ite ori­gin which in­cludes all be­ings em­braced by the Par­a­dise Trin­ity even though not of di­rect Trin­ity ori­gin.
