The Paradise Creator Sons

21:1.1When the full­ness of ab­so­lute spir­i­tual ide­a­tion in the Eter­nal Son en­coun­ters the full­ness of ab­so­lute per­son­al­ity con­cept in the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther, when such a cre­ative union is fi­nally and fully at­tained, when such ab­so­lute iden­tity of spirit and such in­fi­nite one­ness of per­son­al­ity con­cept oc­cur, then, right then and there, with­out the loss of any­thing of per­son­al­ity or pre­rog­a­tive by ei­ther of the in­fi­nite De­i­ties, there flashes into full-fledged be­ing a new and orig­i­nal Cre­ator Son, the only-be­got­ten Son of the per­fect ideal and the pow­er­ful idea whose union pro­duces this new cre­ator per­son­al­ity of power and per­fec­tion.

21:1.2Each Cre­ator Son is the only-be­got­ten and only-beget­table off­spring of the per­fect union of the orig­i­nal con­cepts of the two in­fi­nite and eter­nal and per­fect minds of the ever-ex­is­tent Cre­ators of the uni­verse of uni­verses. There never can be an­other such Son be­cause each Cre­ator Son is the un­qual­i­fied, fin­ished, and fi­nal ex­pres­sion and em­bod­i­ment of all of ev­ery phase of ev­ery fea­ture of ev­ery pos­si­bil­ity of ev­ery di­vine re­al­ity that could, through­out all eter­nity, ever be found in, ex­pressed by, or evolved from, those di­vine cre­ative po­ten­tials which united to bring this Mi­chael Son into ex­is­tence. Each Cre­ator Son is the ab­so­lute of the united de­ity con­cepts which con­sti­tute his di­vine ori­gin.

21:1.3The di­vine na­tures of these Cre­ator Sons are, in prin­ci­ple, de­rived equally from the at­tri­butes of both Par­a­dise par­ents. All par­take of the full­ness of the di­vine na­ture of the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther and of the cre­ative pre­rog­a­tives of the Eter­nal Son, but as we ob­serve the prac­ti­cal out­work­ing of the Mi­chael func­tions in the uni­verses, we dis­cern ap­par­ent dif­fer­ences. Some Cre­ator Sons ap­pear to be more like God the Fa­ther; oth­ers more like God the Son. For ex­am­ple: The trend of ad­min­is­tra­tion in the uni­verse of Neb­a­don sug­gests that its Cre­ator and rul­ing Son is one whose na­ture and char­ac­ter more re­sem­ble that of the Eter­nal Mother Son. It should be fur­ther stated that some uni­verses are pre­sided over by Par­a­dise Mi­cha­els who ap­pear equally to re­sem­ble God the Fa­ther and God the Son. And these ob­ser­va­tions are in no sense im­plied crit­i­cisms; they are sim­ply a record­ing of fact.

21:1.4I do not know the ex­act num­ber of Cre­ator Sons in ex­is­tence, but I have good rea­sons for be­liev­ing that there are more than seven hun­dred thou­sand. Now, we know that there are ex­actly seven hun­dred thou­sand Unions of Days and no more are be­ing cre­ated. We also ob­serve that the or­dained plans of the pres­ent uni­verse age seem to in­di­cate that one Union of Days is to be sta­tioned in each lo­cal uni­verse as the coun­sel­ing am­bas­sador of the Trin­ity. We note fur­ther that the con­stantly in­creas­ing num­ber of Cre­ator Sons al­ready ex­ceeds the sta­tion­ary num­ber of the Unions of Days. But con­cern­ing the des­tiny of the Mi­cha­els be­yond seven hun­dred thou­sand, we have never been in­formed.
