37:3.1Arch­an­gels are the off­spring of the Cre­ator Son and the Uni­verse Mother Spirit. They are the high­est type of high spirit be­ing pro­duced in large num­bers in a lo­cal uni­verse, and at the time of the last reg­istry there were al­most eight hun­dred thou­sand in Neb­a­don.

37:3.2Arch­an­gels are one of the few groups of lo­cal uni­verse per­son­al­i­ties who are not nor­mally un­der the ju­ris­dic­tion of Ga­briel. They are not in any man­ner con­cerned with the rou­tine ad­min­is­tra­tion of the uni­verse, be­ing ded­i­cated to the work of crea­ture sur­vival and to the fur­ther­ance of the as­cend­ing ca­reer of the mor­tals of time and space. While not or­di­nar­ily sub­ject to the di­rec­tion of the Bright and Morn­ing Star, the arch­an­gels do some­times func­tion by his au­thor­ity. They also col­lab­o­rate with oth­ers of the Uni­verse Aids, such as the Evening Stars, as is il­lus­trated by cer­tain trans­ac­tions de­picted in the nar­ra­tive of life trans­plan­ta­tion on your world.

37:3.3The arch­an­gel corps of Neb­a­don is di­rected by the first-born of this or­der, and in more re­cent times a di­vi­sional head­quar­ters of the arch­an­gels has been main­tained on Uran­tia. It is this un­usual fact that soon ar­rests the at­ten­tion of ex­tra-Neb­a­don stu­dent vis­i­tors. Among their early ob­ser­va­tions of in­trau­ni­verse trans­ac­tions is the dis­cov­ery that many as­cen­dant ac­tiv­i­ties of the Bril­liant Evening Stars are di­rected from the cap­i­tal of a lo­cal sys­tem, Sa­ta­nia. On fur­ther ex­am­i­na­tion they dis­cover that cer­tain arch­an­gel ac­tiv­i­ties are di­rected from a small and ap­par­ently in­signif­i­cant in­hab­ited world called Uran­tia. And then en­sues the rev­e­la­tion of Mi­chael’s be­stowal on Uran­tia and their im­me­di­ately quick­ened in­ter­est in you and your lowly sphere.

37:3.4Do you grasp the sig­nif­i­cance of the fact that your lowly and con­fused planet has be­come a di­vi­sional head­quar­ters for the uni­verse ad­min­is­tra­tion and di­rec­tion of cer­tain arch­an­gel ac­tiv­i­ties hav­ing to do with the Par­a­dise as­cen­sion scheme? This un­doubt­edly presages the fu­ture con­cen­tra­tion of other as­cen­dant ac­tiv­i­ties on the be­stowal world of Mi­chael and lends a tremen­dous and solemn im­port to the Mas­ter’s per­sonal prom­ise, “I will come again.”

37:3.5In gen­eral, the arch­an­gels are as­signed to the ser­vice and min­istry of the Avo­nal or­der of son­ship, but not un­til they have passed through ex­ten­sive pre­lim­i­nary train­ing in all phases of the work of the var­i­ous min­is­ter­ing spir­its. A corps of one hun­dred ac­com­pa­nies ev­ery Par­a­dise be­stowal Son to an in­hab­ited world, be­ing tem­porar­ily as­signed to him for the du­ra­tion of such a be­stowal. If the Mag­is­te­rial Son should be­come tem­po­rary ruler of the planet, these arch­an­gels would act as the di­rect­ing heads of all ce­les­tial life on that sphere.

37:3.6Two se­nior arch­an­gels are al­ways as­signed as the per­sonal aids of a Par­a­dise Avo­nal on all plan­e­tary mis­sions, whether in­volv­ing ju­di­cial ac­tions, mag­is­te­rial mis­sions, or be­stowal in­car­na­tions. When this Par­a­dise Son has fin­ished the judg­ment of a realm and the dead are called to rec­ord (the so-called res­ur­rec­tion), it is lit­er­ally true that the se­raphic guard­i­ans of the slum­ber­ing per­son­al­i­ties re­spond to “the voice of the arch­an­gel.” The roll call of a dis­pen­sa­tion ter­mi­na­tion is pro­mul­gated by an at­ten­dant arch­an­gel. This is the arch­an­gel of the res­ur­rec­tion, some­times re­ferred to as the “arch­an­gel of Mi­chael.”

37:3.7The Worlds of the Arch­an­gels. The sev­enth group of the en­cir­cling Sal­ving­ton worlds, with their as­so­ci­ated satel­lites, is as­signed to the arch­an­gels. Sphere num­ber one and all of its six trib­u­tary satel­lites are oc­cu­pied by the per­son­al­ity rec­ord keep­ers. This enor­mous corps of re­cord­ers busy them­selves with keep­ing straight the rec­ord of each mor­tal of time from the mo­ment of birth up through the uni­verse ca­reer un­til such an in­di­vid­ual ei­ther leaves Sal­ving­ton for the super­uni­verse regime or is “blot­ted out of re­corded ex­is­tence” by the man­date of the An­cients of Days.

37:3.8It is on these worlds that per­son­al­ity rec­ords and iden­ti­fi­ca­tion sureties are clas­si­fied, filed, and pre­served dur­ing that time which in­ter­venes be­tween mor­tal death and the hour of reper­son­al­iza­tion, the res­ur­rec­tion from death.

100 assigned to Magisterial Sons on planetary missions 1 paragraph, 2 read above

20:2.9In all their work for and on the in­hab­ited worlds, the Mag­is­te­rial Sons are as­sisted by two or­ders of lo­cal uni­verse crea­tures, the Mel­chiz­e­deks and the arch­an­gels, while on be­stowal mis­sions they are also ac­com­pa­nied by the Bril­liant Evening Stars, like­wise of ori­gin in the lo­cal cre­ations. In ev­ery plan­e­tary ef­fort the sec­ondary Par­a­dise Sons, the Avo­nals, are sup­ported by the full power and au­thor­ity of a pri­mary Par­a­dise Son, the Cre­ator Son of their lo­cal uni­verse of ser­vice. To all in­tents and pur­poses their work on the in­hab­ited spheres is just as ef­fec­tive and ac­cept­able as would have been the ser­vice of a Cre­ator Son upon such worlds of mor­tal habi­ta­tion.

absolve destiny guardians if subjects fail to survive 1 paragraph

113:6.3In case the hu­man soul fails of sur­vival af­ter hav­ing re­ceived the as­sign­ment of a per­sonal an­gel, the at­tend­ing ser­a­phim must pro­ceed to the head­quar­ters of the lo­cal uni­verse, there to wit­ness to the com­plete rec­ords of her com­ple­ment as pre­vi­ously re­ported. Next she goes be­fore the tri­bu­nals of the arch­an­gels, to be ab­solved from blame in the mat­ter of the sur­vival fail­ure of her sub­ject; and then she goes back to the worlds, again to be as­signed to an­other mor­tal of as­cend­ing po­ten­tial­ity or to some other di­vi­sion of se­raphic min­istry.

47:3.2The very cen­ter of all ac­tiv­i­ties on the first man­sion world is the res­ur­rec­tion hall, the enor­mous tem­ple of per­son­al­ity as­sem­bly. This gi­gan­tic struc­ture con­sists of the cen­tral ren­dezvous of the se­raphic des­tiny guard­i­ans, the Thought Ad­justers, and the arch­an­gels of the res­ur­rec­tion. The Life Car­ri­ers also func­tion with these ce­les­tial be­ings in the res­ur­rec­tion of the dead.

74:2.8Then was heard the arch­an­gels’ procla­ma­tion, and the broad­cast voice of Ga­briel de­creed the sec­ond judg­ment roll call of Uran­tia and the res­ur­rec­tion of the sleep­ing sur­vivors of the sec­ond dis­pen­sa­tion of grace and mercy on 606 of Sa­ta­nia. The dis­pen­sa­tion of the Prince has passed; the age of Adam, the third plan­e­tary epoch, opens amidst scenes of sim­ple grandeur; and the new rulers of Uran­tia start their reign un­der seem­ingly fa­vor­able con­di­tions, not­with­stand­ing the world-wide con­fu­sion oc­ca­sioned by lack of the co-op­er­a­tion of their pre­de­ces­sor in au­thor­ity on the planet.

189:2.1At ten min­utes past three o’clock, as the res­ur­rected Je­sus frat­er­nized with the as­sem­bled mor­ontia per­son­al­i­ties from the seven man­sion worlds of Sa­ta­nia, the chief of arch­an­gels—the an­gels of the res­ur­rec­tion—ap­proached Ga­briel and asked for the mor­tal body of Je­sus. Said the chief of the arch­an­gels: “We may not par­tic­i­pate in the mor­ontia res­ur­rec­tion of the be­stowal ex­pe­ri­ence of Mi­chael our sov­er­eign, but we would have his mor­tal re­mains put in our cus­tody for im­me­di­ate dis­so­lu­tion. We do not pro­pose to em­ploy our tech­nique of de­ma­te­ri­al­iza­tion; we merely wish to in­voke the pro­cess of ac­cel­er­ated time. It is enough that we have seen the Sov­er­eign live and die on Uran­tia; the hosts of heaven would be spared the mem­ory of en­dur­ing the sight of the slow de­cay of the hu­man form of the Cre­ator and Up­holder of a uni­verse. In the name of the ce­les­tial in­tel­li­gences of all Neb­a­don, I ask for a man­date giv­ing me the cus­tody of the mor­tal body of Je­sus of Naz­a­reth and em­pow­er­ing us to pro­ceed with its im­me­di­ate dis­so­lu­tion.”

commission of Life Carrier transmutation 2 paragraphs

65:1.6When the Life Car­ri­ers make ready to en­gage in life im­plan­ta­tion, and af­ter they have se­lected the sites for such an un­der­tak­ing, they sum­mon the arch­an­gel com­mis­sion of Life Car­rier trans­mu­ta­tion. This group con­sists of ten or­ders of di­verse per­son­al­i­ties, in­clud­ing the phys­i­cal con­trol­lers and their as­so­ciates, and is pre­sided over by the chief of arch­an­gels, who acts in this ca­pac­ity by the man­date of Ga­briel and with the per­mis­sion of the An­cients of Days. When these be­ings are prop­erly en­cir­cuited, they can ef­fect such mod­i­fi­ca­tions in the Life Car­ri­ers as will en­able them im­me­di­ately to func­tion on the phys­i­cal lev­els of elec­tro­chem­istry.

65:1.7Af­ter the life pat­terns have been for­mu­lated and the ma­te­rial or­ga­ni­za­tions have been duly com­pleted, the super­ma­te­rial forces con­cerned in life prop­a­ga­tion be­come forth­with ac­tive, and life is ex­is­tent. Where­upon the Life Car­ri­ers are im­me­di­ately re­turned to their nor­mal mid-phase of per­son­al­ity ex­is­tence, in which es­tate they can ma­nip­u­late the liv­ing units and ma­neu­ver the evolv­ing or­gan­isms, even though they are shorn of all abil­ity to or­ga­nize—cre­ate—new pat­terns of liv­ing mat­ter.

189:2.2And when Ga­briel had con­ferred with the se­nior Most High of Eden­tia, the arch­an­gel spokesman for the ce­les­tial hosts was given per­mis­sion to make such dis­po­si­tion of the phys­i­cal re­mains of Je­sus as he might de­ter­mine.

189:2.3Af­ter the chief of arch­an­gels had been granted this re­quest, he sum­moned to his as­sis­tance many of his fel­lows, to­gether with a nu­mer­ous host of the rep­re­sen­ta­tives of all or­ders of ce­les­tial per­son­al­i­ties, and then, with the aid of the Uran­tia mid­way­ers, pro­ceeded to take pos­ses­sion of Je­sus’ phys­i­cal body. This body of death was a purely ma­te­rial cre­ation; it was phys­i­cal and lit­eral; it could not be re­moved from the tomb as the mor­ontia form of the res­ur­rec­tion had been able to es­cape the sealed sepul­chre. By the aid of cer­tain mor­ontia aux­il­iary per­son­al­i­ties, the mor­ontia form can be made at one time as of the spirit so that it can be­come in­dif­fer­ent to or­di­nary mat­ter, while at an­other time it can be­come dis­cern­i­ble and con­tactable to ma­te­rial be­ings, such as the mor­tals of the realm.

189:2.4As they made ready to re­move the body of Je­sus from the tomb prepara­tory to ac­cord­ing it the dig­ni­fied and rev­er­ent dis­posal of near-in­stan­ta­neous dis­so­lu­tion, it was as­signed the sec­ondary Uran­tia mid­way­ers to roll away the stones from the en­trance of the tomb. The larger of these two stones was a huge cir­cu­lar af­fair, much like a mill­stone, and it moved in a groove chis­eled out of the rock, so that it could be rolled back and forth to open or close the tomb. When the watch­ing Jew­ish guards and the Ro­man sol­diers, in the dim light of the morn­ing, saw this huge stone be­gin to roll away from the en­trance of the tomb, ap­par­ently of its own ac­cord—with­out any vis­i­ble means to ac­count for such mo­tion—they were seized with fear and panic, and they fled in haste from the scene. The Jews fled to their homes, af­ter­ward go­ing back to re­port these do­ings to their cap­tain at the tem­ple. The Ro­mans fled to the fortress of An­to­nia and re­ported what they had seen to the cen­tu­rion as soon as he ar­rived on duty.

message naming Andon and Fonta 3 paragraphs

63:0.1Uran­tia was reg­is­tered as an in­hab­ited world when the first two hu­man be­ings—the twins—were eleven years old, and be­fore they had be­come the par­ents of the first-born of the sec­ond gen­er­a­tion of ac­tual hu­man be­ings. And the arch­an­gel mes­sage from Sal­ving­ton, on this oc­ca­sion of for­mal plan­e­tary rec­og­ni­tion, closed with these words:

63:0.2“Man-mind has ap­peared on 606 of Sa­ta­nia, and these par­ents of the new race shall be called An­don and Fonta. And all arch­an­gels pray that these crea­tures may speed­ily be en­dowed with the per­sonal in­dwelling of the gift of the spirit of the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther.”

63:0.3An­don is the Neb­a­don name which sig­ni­fies “the first Fa­ther­like crea­ture to ex­hibit hu­man per­fec­tion hunger.” Fonta sig­ni­fies “the first Son­like crea­ture to ex­hibit hu­man per­fec­tion hunger.” An­don and Fonta never knew these names un­til they were be­stowed upon them at the time of fu­sion with their Thought Ad­justers. Through­out their mor­tal so­journ on Uran­tia they called each other Sonta-an and Sonta-en, Sonta-an mean­ing “loved by mother,” Sonta-en sig­ni­fy­ing “loved by fa­ther.” They gave them­selves these names, and the mean­ings are sig­nif­i­cant of their mu­tual re­gard and af­fec­tion.

message to Life Carriers recognizing life on Urantia 8 paragraphs

62:7.1We did not have to wait long. At noon, the day af­ter the run­away of the twins, there oc­curred the ini­tial test flash of the uni­verse cir­cuit sig­nals at the plan­e­tary re­cep­tion-fo­cus of Uran­tia. We were, of course, all astir with the re­al­iza­tion that a great event was im­pend­ing; but since this world was a life-ex­per­i­ment sta­tion, we had not the slight­est idea of just how we would be ap­prised of the rec­og­ni­tion of in­tel­li­gent life on the planet. But we were not long in sus­pense. On the third day af­ter the elope­ment of the twins, and be­fore the Life Car­rier corps de­parted, there ar­rived the Neb­a­don arch­an­gel of ini­tial plan­e­tary cir­cuit es­tab­lish­ment.

62:7.2It was an event­ful day on Uran­tia when our small group gath­ered about the plan­e­tary pole of space com­mu­ni­ca­tion and re­ceived the first mes­sage from Sal­ving­ton over the newly es­tab­lished mind cir­cuit of the planet. And this first mes­sage, dic­tated by the chief of the arch­an­gel corps, said:

62:7.3“To the Life Car­ri­ers on Uran­tia—Greet­ings! We trans­mit as­sur­ance of great plea­sure on Sal­ving­ton, Eden­tia, and Je­ru­sem in honor of the reg­is­tra­tion on the head­quar­ters of Neb­a­don of the sig­nal of the ex­is­tence on Uran­tia of mind of will dig­nity. The pur­pose­ful de­ci­sion of the twins to flee north­ward and seg­re­gate their off­spring from their in­fe­rior an­ces­tors has been noted. This is the first de­ci­sion of mind—the hu­man type of mind—on Uran­tia and au­to­mat­i­cally es­tab­lishes the cir­cuit of com­mu­ni­ca­tion over which this ini­tial mes­sage of ac­knowl­edg­ment is trans­mit­ting.”

62:7.4Next over this new cir­cuit came the greet­ings of the Most Highs of Eden­tia, con­tain­ing in­struc­tions for the res­i­dent Life Car­ri­ers for­bid­ding us to in­ter­fere with the pat­tern of life we had es­tab­lished. We were di­rected not to in­ter­vene in the af­fairs of hu­man prog­ress. It should not be in­ferred that Life Car­ri­ers ever ar­bi­trar­ily and me­chan­i­cally in­ter­fere with the nat­u­ral out­work­ing of the plan­e­tary evo­lu­tion­ary plans, for we do not. But up to this time we had been per­mit­ted to ma­nip­u­late the en­vi­ron­ment and shield the life plasm in a spe­cial man­ner, and it was this ex­traor­di­nary, but wholly nat­u­ral, super­vi­sion that was to be dis­con­tin­ued.

62:7.5And no sooner had the Most Highs left off speak­ing than the beau­ti­ful mes­sage of Lu­cifer, then sov­er­eign of the Sa­ta­nia sys­tem, be­gan to plan­e­tize. Now the Life Car­ri­ers heard the wel­come words of their own chief and re­ceived his per­mis­sion to re­turn to Je­ru­sem. This mes­sage from Lu­cifer con­tained the of­fi­cial ac­cep­tance of the Life Car­ri­ers’ work on Uran­tia and ab­solved us from all fu­ture crit­i­cism of any of our ef­forts to im­prove the life pat­terns of Neb­a­don as es­tab­lished in the Sa­ta­nia sys­tem.

62:7.6These mes­sages from Sal­ving­ton, Eden­tia, and Je­ru­sem for­mally marked the ter­mi­na­tion of the Life Car­ri­ers’ age­long super­vi­sion of the planet. For ages we had been on duty, as­sisted only by the seven ad­ju­tant mind-spir­its and the Mas­ter Phys­i­cal Con­trol­lers. And now, will, the power of choos­ing to wor­ship and to as­cend, hav­ing ap­peared in the evo­lu­tion­ary crea­tures of the planet, we re­al­ized that our work was fin­ished, and our group pre­pared to de­part. Uran­tia be­ing a life-mod­i­fi­ca­tion world, per­mis­sion was granted to leave be­hind two se­nior Life Car­ri­ers with twelve as­sis­tants, and I was cho­sen as one of this group and have ever since been on Uran­tia.

62:7.7It is just 993,408 years ago (from the year A.D. 1934) that Uran­tia was for­mally rec­og­nized as a planet of hu­man habi­ta­tion in the uni­verse of Neb­a­don. Bi­o­logic evo­lu­tion had once again achieved the hu­man lev­els of will dig­nity; man had ar­rived on planet 606 of Sa­ta­nia.

The higher or­ders of lo­cal uni­verse son­ship did not join the Lu­cifer se­ces­sion, al­though a few of the Life Car­ri­ers sta­tioned on the rebel plan­ets were some­what in­flu­enced by the re­bel­lion of the dis­loyal princes. None of the Trin­i­tized Sons went astray. The Mel­chiz­e­deks, arch­an­gels, and the Bril­liant Evening Stars were all loyal to Mi­chael and, with Ga­briel, valiantly con­tended for the Fa­ther’s will and the Son’s rule.

112:5.15Dur­ing the tran­sit of sur­viv­ing mor­tals from the world of ori­gin to the man­sion worlds, whether they ex­pe­ri­ence per­son­al­ity re­assem­bly on the third pe­riod or as­cend at the time of a group res­ur­rec­tion, the rec­ord of per­son­al­ity con­sti­tu­tion is faith­fully pre­served by the arch­an­gels on their worlds of spe­cial ac­tiv­i­ties. These be­ings are not the cus­to­di­ans of per­son­al­ity (as the guard­ian ser­a­phim are of the soul), but it is nonethe­less true that ev­ery iden­ti­fi­able fac­tor of per­son­al­ity is ef­fec­tu­ally safe­guarded in the cus­tody of these de­pend­able trustees of mor­tal sur­vival. As to the ex­act where­abouts of mor­tal per­son­al­ity dur­ing the time in­ter­ven­ing be­tween death and sur­vival, we do not know.

resurrect primitives for Spirit fusion 1 paragraph

52:1.6Man’s ac­quire­ment of eth­i­cal judg­ment, moral will, is usu­ally co­in­ci­dent with the ap­pear­ance of early lan­guage. Upon at­tain­ing the hu­man level, af­ter this emer­gence of mor­tal will, these be­ings be­come re­cep­tive to the tem­po­rary in­dwelling of the di­vine Ad­justers, and upon death many are duly elected as sur­vivors and sealed by the arch­an­gels for sub­se­quent res­ur­rec­tion and Spirit fu­sion. The arch­an­gels al­ways ac­com­pany the Plan­e­tary Princes, and a dis­pen­sa­tional ad­ju­di­ca­tion of the realm is si­mul­ta­ne­ous with the prince’s ar­rival.

speak in confirmation of fusion 1 paragraph

47:8.4The union of the evolv­ing im­mor­tal soul with the eter­nal and di­vine Ad­juster is sig­nal­ized by the se­raphic sum­mon­ing of the super­vis­ing super­an­gel for res­ur­rected sur­vivors and of the arch­an­gel of rec­ord for those go­ing to judg­ment on the third day; and then, in the pres­ence of such a sur­vivor’s mor­ontia as­so­ciates, these mes­sen­gers of con­fir­ma­tion speak: “This is a beloved son in whom I am well pleased.” This sim­ple cer­e­mony marks the en­trance of an as­cend­ing mor­tal upon the eter­nal ca­reer of Par­a­dise ser­vice.

supervise translations in morontia temple 2 paragraphs

55:2.7Mor­tal ob­servers can see noth­ing of their trans­lated as­so­ciates sub­se­quent to the fu­sion flash. Such trans­lated souls pro­ceed by Ad­juster tran­sit di­rect to the res­ur­rec­tion hall of the ap­pro­pri­ate mor­ontia-train­ing world. These trans­ac­tions con­cerned with the trans­la­tion of liv­ing hu­man be­ings to the mor­ontia world are super­vised by an arch­an­gel who was as­signed to such a world on the day when it was first set­tled in light and life.

55:4.16The min­is­ter­ing-spirit quar­tets con­sist of: the se­raphic chief of the sphere, the super­uni­verse sec­o­raphic coun­selor, the arch­an­gel of trans­la­tions, and the om­niaphim who func­tions as the per­sonal rep­re­sen­ta­tive of the As­signed Sen­tinel sta­tioned on the sys­tem head­quar­ters. But these ad­vis­ers never prof­fer coun­sel un­less it is asked for.

throne of presiding archangel on Jerusem surrounded by 24 counselors 1 paragraph

45:4.1At the cen­ter of the seven an­gelic res­i­den­tial cir­cles on Je­ru­sem is lo­cated the head­quar­ters of the Uran­tia ad­vi­sory coun­cil, the four and twenty coun­selors. John the Rev­e­la­tor called them the four and twenty el­ders: “And round about the throne were four and twenty seats, and upon the seats I saw four and twenty el­ders sit­ting, clothed in white rai­ment.” The throne in the cen­ter of this group is the judg­ment seat of the pre­sid­ing arch­an­gel, the throne of the res­ur­rec­tion roll call of mercy and jus­tice for all Sa­ta­nia. This judg­ment seat has al­ways been on Je­ru­sem, but the twenty-four sur­round­ing seats were placed in po­si­tion no more than nine­teen hun­dred years ago, soon af­ter Christ Mi­chael was el­e­vated to the full sov­er­eignty of Neb­a­don. These four and twenty coun­selors are his per­sonal agents on Je­ru­sem, and they have au­thor­ity to rep­re­sent the Mas­ter Son in all mat­ters con­cern­ing the roll calls of Sa­ta­nia and in many other phases of the scheme of mor­tal as­cen­sion on the iso­lated worlds of the sys­tem. They are the des­ig­nated agents for ex­e­cut­ing the spe­cial re­quests of Ga­briel and the un­usual man­dates of Mi­chael.
