advised Melchizedek receivers after rebellion 1 paragraph

67:6.5The af­fairs of Uran­tia were for a long time ad­min­is­tered by a coun­cil of plan­e­tary re­ceivers, twelve Mel­chiz­e­deks, con­firmed by the man­date of the se­nior con­stel­la­tion ruler, the Most High Fa­ther of Nor­la­ti­adek. As­so­ci­ated with the Mel­chiz­e­dek re­ceivers was an ad­vi­sory coun­cil con­sist­ing of: one of the loyal aids of the fallen Prince, the two res­i­dent Life Car­ri­ers, a Trin­i­tized Son in ap­pren­tice­ship train­ing, a vol­un­teer Teacher Son, a Bril­liant Evening Star of Avalon (pe­ri­od­i­cally), the chiefs of ser­a­phim and cheru­bim, ad­vis­ers from two neigh­bor­ing plan­ets, the di­rec­tor gen­eral of sub­or­di­nate an­gelic life, and Van, the com­man­der in chief of the mid­way crea­tures. And thus was Uran­tia gov­erned and ad­min­is­tered un­til the ar­rival of Adam. It is not strange that the coura­geous and loyal Van was as­signed a place on the coun­cil of plan­e­tary re­ceivers which for so long ad­min­is­tered the af­fairs of Uran­tia.

conscious of reflective transference 1 paragraph

28:4.114. The Voice of the An­gelic Hosts. The fourth pri­mary se­con­a­phim and ev­ery sev­enth se­rial prove to be an­gels pe­cu­liarly re­spon­sive to the sen­ti­ments of all or­ders of an­gels, in­clud­ing the super­na­phim above and the ser­a­phim be­low. Thus the at­ti­tude of any com­mand­ing or super­vis­ing an­gel is im­me­di­ately avail­able for con­sid­er­a­tion at any coun­cil of the An­cients of Days. Never a day passes on your world that the chief of ser­a­phim on Uran­tia is not made con­scious of the phe­nom­e­non of re­flec­tive trans­fer­ence, of be­ing drawn upon from Uversa for some pur­pose; but un­less fore­warned by a Soli­tary Mes­sen­ger, she re­mains wholly ig­no­rant of what is sought and of how it is se­cured. These min­is­ter­ing spir­its of time are con­stantly fur­nish­ing this sort of un­con­scious and cer­tainly, there­fore, un­prej­u­diced tes­ti­mony con­cern­ing the end­less ar­ray of mat­ters en­gag­ing the at­ten­tion and coun­sel of the An­cients of Days and their as­so­ciates.

periodically rotated; current chief is primary supernaphim 1 paragraph

27:0.2Pri­mary super­na­phim are also placed in com­mand of the se­raphic hosts min­is­ter­ing on worlds iso­lated be­cause of re­bel­lion. When a Par­a­dise Son is be­stowed upon such a world, com­pletes his mis­sion, as­cends to the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther, is ac­cepted, and re­turns as the ac­cred­ited de­liv­erer of this iso­lated world, a pri­mary super­na­phim is al­ways des­ig­nated by the chiefs of as­sign­ment to as­sume com­mand of the min­is­ter­ing spir­its on duty in the newly re­claimed sphere. Super­na­phim in this spe­cial ser­vice are pe­ri­od­i­cally ro­tated. On Uran­tia the pres­ent “chief of ser­a­phim” is the sec­ond of this or­der to be on duty since the times of the be­stowal of Christ Mi­chael.
