advised Most Highs to allow Lucifer rebels free course 1 paragraph

54:5.98. The Faith­ful of Days on Eden­tia ad­vised the Con­stel­la­tion Fa­thers to al­low the rebels free course to the end that all sym­pa­thy for these evil­do­ers should be the sooner up­rooted in the hearts of ev­ery pres­ent and fu­ture cit­i­zen of Nor­la­ti­adek—ev­ery mor­tal, mor­ontia, or spirit crea­ture.

ascenders meet on Edentia 1 paragraph

43:9.1Af­ter grad­u­a­tion from world num­ber sev­enty, as­cend­ing mor­tals take up res­i­dence on Eden­tia. As­cend­ers now, for the first time, at­tend the “as­sem­blies of Par­a­dise” and hear the story of their far-flung ca­reer as it is de­picted by the Faith­ful of Days, the first of the Su­preme Trin­ity-ori­gin Per­son­al­i­ties they have met.

Mount Assembly is dwelling place of 1 paragraph

presented Michael’s plan for salvation to Lucifer 1 paragraph

53:2.5It is very dif­fi­cult to point out the ex­act cause or causes which fi­nally cul­mi­nated in the Lu­cifer re­bel­lion. We are cer­tain of only one thing, and that is: What­ever these first be­gin­nings were, they had their ori­gin in Lu­cifer’s mind. There must have been a pride of self that nour­ished it­self to the point of self-de­cep­tion, so that Lu­cifer for a time re­ally per­suaded him­self that his con­tem­pla­tion of re­bel­lion was ac­tu­ally for the good of the sys­tem, if not of the uni­verse. By the time his plans had de­vel­oped to the point of dis­il­lu­sion­ment, no doubt he had gone too far for his orig­i­nal and mis­chief-mak­ing pride to per­mit him to stop. At some point in this ex­pe­ri­ence he be­came in­sin­cere, and evil evolved into de­lib­er­ate and will­ful sin. That this hap­pened is proved by the sub­se­quent con­duct of this bril­liant ex­ec­u­tive. He was long of­fered op­por­tu­nity for re­pen­tance, but only some of his sub­or­di­nates ever ac­cepted the prof­fered mercy. The Faith­ful of Days of Eden­tia, on the re­quest of the Con­stel­la­tion Fa­thers, in per­son pre­sented the plan of Mi­chael for the sav­ing of these fla­grant rebels, but al­ways was the mercy of the Cre­ator Son re­jected and re­jected with in­creas­ing con­tempt and dis­dain.

residence on Edentia comparatively modest 2 paragraphs

18:7.4Like the Union of Days on a uni­verse head­quar­ters, the Faith­fuls of Days main­tain their per­sonal res­i­dences on the con­stel­la­tion cap­i­tals sep­a­rate from those of the ad­min­is­tra­tive di­rec­tors of such realms. Their abodes are in­deed mod­est in com­par­i­son with the homes of the Vo­ron­da­dek rulers of the con­stel­la­tions.

43:4.4The most holy mount is ex­qui­sitely beau­ti­ful and mar­velously ap­pointed, but the ac­tual res­i­dence of the Par­a­dise Son is mod­est in com­par­i­son with the cen­tral abode of the Most Highs and the sur­round­ing sev­enty struc­tures com­pris­ing the res­i­den­tial unit of the Vo­ron­da­dek Sons. These ap­point­ments are ex­clu­sively res­i­den­tial; they are en­tirely sep­a­rate from the ex­ten­sive ad­min­is­tra­tive head­quar­ters build­ings wherein the af­fairs of the con­stel­la­tion are trans­acted.
