Faithfuls of Days

18:7.1These high Trin­ity-ori­gin per­son­al­i­ties are the Par­a­dise ad­vis­ers to the rulers of the one hun­dred con­stel­la­tions in each lo­cal uni­verse. There are sev­enty mil­lion Faith­fuls of Days, and like the Unions of Days, not all are in ser­vice. Their Par­a­dise re­serve corps is the Ad­vi­sory Com­mis­sion of In­teruni­verse Ethics and Self-gov­ern­ment. Faith­fuls of Days ro­tate in ser­vice in ac­cor­dance with the rul­ings of the su­preme coun­cil of their re­serve corps.

18:7.2All that a Union of Days is to a Cre­ator Son of a lo­cal uni­verse, the Faith­fuls of Days are to the Vo­ron­da­dek Sons who rule the con­stel­la­tions of that lo­cal cre­ation. They are su­premely de­voted and di­vinely faith­ful to the wel­fare of their con­stel­la­tions of as­sign­ment, hence the name—Faith­fuls of Days. They act only as coun­selors; never do they par­tic­i­pate in ad­min­is­tra­tive ac­tiv­i­ties ex­cept upon the in­vi­ta­tion of the con­stel­la­tion au­thor­i­ties. Nei­ther are they di­rectly con­cerned in the ed­u­ca­tional min­istry to the pil­grims of as­cen­sion on the ar­chi­tec­tural train­ing spheres sur­round­ing a con­stel­la­tion head­quar­ters. All such un­der­tak­ings are un­der the super­vi­sion of the Vo­ron­da­dek Sons.

18:7.3All Faith­fuls of Days func­tion­ing in the con­stel­la­tions of a lo­cal uni­verse are un­der the ju­ris­dic­tion of, and re­port di­rectly to, the Union of Days. They do not have a far-flung sys­tem of in­ter­com­mu­ni­ca­tion, be­ing or­di­nar­ily self-lim­ited to an in­teras­so­ci­a­tion within the lim­its of a lo­cal uni­verse. Any Faith­ful of Days on duty in Neb­a­don can and does com­mu­ni­cate with all oth­ers of his or­der on duty in this lo­cal uni­verse.

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.

18:7.5The Faith­fuls of Days are the last link in the long ad­min­is­tra­tive-ad­vi­sory chain which reaches from the sa­cred spheres of the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther near the cen­ter of all things to the pri­mary di­vi­sions of the lo­cal uni­verses. The Trin­ity-ori­gin regime stops with the con­stel­la­tions; no such Par­a­dise ad­vis­ers are per­ma­nently sit­u­ated on their com­po­nent sys­tems or on the in­hab­ited worlds. These lat­ter ad­min­is­tra­tive units are wholly un­der the ju­ris­dic­tion of be­ings na­tive to the lo­cal uni­verses.

43:4.3The res­i­dence of the Eden­tia Faith­ful of Days is the con­stel­la­tion cen­ter of the Par­a­dise sys­tem of ex­trau­ni­verse com­mu­ni­ca­tion and in­tel­li­gence. These Trin­ity Sons, with their staffs of Ha­vona and Par­a­dise per­son­al­i­ties, in li­ai­son with the super­vis­ing Union of Days, are in di­rect and con­stant com­mu­ni­ca­tion with their or­der through­out all the uni­verses, even to Ha­vona and Par­a­dise.

119:8.1Af­ter Mi­chael’s fi­nal and suc­cess­ful be­stowal on Uran­tia he was not only ac­cepted by the An­cients of Days as sov­er­eign ruler of Neb­a­don, but he was also rec­og­nized by the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther as the es­tab­lished di­rec­tor of the lo­cal uni­verse of his own cre­ation. Upon his re­turn to Sal­ving­ton this Mi­chael, the Son of Man and the Son of God, was pro­claimed the set­tled ruler of Neb­a­don. From Uversa came the eighth procla­ma­tion of Mi­chael’s sov­er­eignty, while from Par­a­dise came the joint pro­nounce­ment of the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther and the Eter­nal Son con­sti­tut­ing this union of God and man sole head of the uni­verse and di­rect­ing the Union of Days sta­tioned on Sal­ving­ton to sig­nify his in­ten­tion of with­draw­ing to Par­a­dise. The Faith­fuls of Days on the con­stel­la­tion head­quar­ters were also in­structed to re­tire from the coun­cils of the Most Highs. But Mi­chael would not con­sent to the with­drawal of the Trin­ity Sons of coun­sel and co-op­er­a­tion. He as­sem­bled them on Sal­ving­ton and per­son­ally re­quested them for­ever to re­main on duty in Neb­a­don. They sig­ni­fied their de­sire to com­ply with this re­quest to their di­rec­tors on Par­a­dise, and shortly there­after there were is­sued those man­dates of Par­a­dise di­vorce­ment which for­ever at­tached these Sons of the cen­tral uni­verse to the court of Mi­chael of Neb­a­don.

15:2.42. The Con­stel­la­tion. One hun­dred sys­tems (about 100,000 in­hab­it­able plan­ets) make up a con­stel­la­tion. Each con­stel­la­tion has an ar­chi­tec­tural head­quar­ters sphere and is pre­sided over by three Vo­ron­da­dek Sons, the Most Highs. Each con­stel­la­tion also has a Faith­ful of Days in ob­ser­va­tion, an am­bas­sador of the Par­a­dise Trin­ity.

15:13.6The ad­min­is­tra­tors of the mi­nor sec­tor gov­ern­ments are un­der the im­me­di­ate ju­ris­dic­tion of the ma­jor sec­tor rulers. The Re­cents of Days re­ceive all re­ports of ob­ser­va­tions and co-or­di­nate all rec­om­men­da­tions which come up to a super­uni­verse from the Unions of Days who are sta­tioned as Trin­ity ob­servers and ad­vis­ers on the head­quar­ters spheres of the lo­cal uni­verses and from the Faith­fuls of Days who are sim­i­larly at­tached to the coun­cils of the Most Highs at the head­quar­ters of the con­stel­la­tions. All such re­ports are trans­mit­ted to the Per­fec­tions of Days on the ma­jor sec­tors, sub­se­quently to be passed on to the courts of the An­cients of Days. Thus the Trin­ity regime ex­tends from the con­stel­la­tions of the lo­cal uni­verses up to the head­quar­ters of the super­uni­verse. The lo­cal sys­tem head­quar­ters do not have Trin­ity rep­re­sen­ta­tives.

33:5.3This am­bas­sador of Par­a­dise to Neb­a­don is not sub­ject to the ju­ris­dic­tion of the lo­cal uni­verse gov­ern­ment. Nei­ther does he ex­er­cise au­thor­i­ta­tive ju­ris­dic­tion in the ex­ec­u­tive af­fairs of an evolv­ing lo­cal uni­verse ex­cept in the super­vi­sion of his li­ai­son breth­ren, the Faith­fuls of Days, serv­ing on the head­quar­ters of the con­stel­la­tions.

• never proffer advice unless asked

33:5.4The Faith­fuls of Days, like the Union of Days, never prof­fer ad­vice or of­fer as­sis­tance to the con­stel­la­tion rulers un­less it is asked for. These Par­a­dise am­bas­sadors to the con­stel­la­tions rep­re­sent the fi­nal per­sonal pres­ence of the Sta­tion­ary Sons of the Trin­ity func­tion­ing in ad­vi­sory roles in the lo­cal uni­verses. Con­stel­la­tions are more closely re­lated to the super­uni­verse ad­min­is­tra­tion than lo­cal sys­tems, which are ad­min­is­tered ex­clu­sively by per­son­al­i­ties na­tive to the lo­cal uni­verse.

43:4.2This Faith­ful of Days is a Trin­ity Son of Par­a­dise and has been pres­ent on Eden­tia as the per­sonal rep­re­sen­ta­tive of Im­manuel since the cre­ation of the head­quar­ters world. Ever the Faith­ful of Days stands at the right hand of the Con­stel­la­tion Fa­thers to coun­sel them, but never does he prof­fer ad­vice un­less it is asked for. The high Sons of Par­a­dise never par­tic­i­pate in the con­duct of the af­fairs of a lo­cal uni­verse ex­cept upon the pe­ti­tion of the act­ing rulers of such do­mains. But all that a Union of Days is to a Cre­ator Son, a Faith­ful of Days is to the Most Highs of a con­stel­la­tion.

55:10.1When a uni­verse be­comes set­tled in light and life, it soon swings into the es­tab­lished super­uni­verse cir­cuits, and the An­cients of Days pro­claim the es­tab­lish­ment of the su­preme coun­cil of un­lim­ited au­thor­ity. This new gov­ern­ing body con­sists of the one hun­dred Faith­fuls of Days, pre­sided over by the Union of Days, and the first act of this su­preme coun­cil is to ac­knowl­edge the con­tin­ued sov­er­eignty of the Mas­ter Cre­ator Son.
