The Evolution of Local Universes

32:0.1A lo­cal uni­verse is the hand­i­work of a Cre­ator Son of the Par­a­dise or­der of Mi­chael. It com­prises one hun­dred con­stel­la­tions, each em­brac­ing one hun­dred sys­tems of in­hab­ited worlds. Each sys­tem will even­tu­ally con­tain ap­prox­i­mately one thou­sand in­hab­ited spheres.

32:0.2These uni­verses of time and space are all evo­lu­tion­ary. The cre­ative plan of the Par­a­dise Mi­cha­els al­ways pro­ceeds along the path of grad­ual evolve­ment and pro­gres­sive de­vel­op­ment of the phys­i­cal, in­tel­lec­tual, and spir­i­tual na­tures and ca­pac­i­ties of the man­i­fold crea­tures who in­habit the var­ied or­ders of spheres com­pris­ing such a lo­cal uni­verse.

32:0.3Uran­tia be­longs to a lo­cal uni­verse whose sov­er­eign is the God-man of Neb­a­don, Je­sus of Naz­a­reth and Mi­chael of Sal­ving­ton. And all of Mi­chael’s plans for this lo­cal uni­verse were fully ap­proved by the Par­a­dise Trin­ity be­fore he ever em­barked upon the su­preme ad­ven­ture of space.

32:0.4The Sons of God may choose the realms of their cre­ator ac­tiv­i­ties, but these ma­te­rial cre­ations were orig­i­nally pro­jected and planned by the Par­a­dise Ar­chi­tects of the Mas­ter Uni­verse.
