25:2.83. The Di­vine Ex­e­cu­tioner. The con­cil­ia­tor qual­i­fied by in­her­ent na­ture to make con­tact with the ma­te­rial be­ings of the realms and to ex­e­cute the de­ci­sions of the com­mis­sion. Di­vine ex­e­cu­tion­ers, be­ing fourth crea­tures—quasi-ma­te­rial be­ings—are al­most, but not quite, vis­i­ble to the short-range vi­sion of the mor­tal races.

38:7.6Cheru­bim and sa­no­bim are by na­ture very near the mor­ontia level of ex­is­tence, and they prove to be most ef­fi­cient in the bor­der­land work of the phys­i­cal, mor­ontial, and spir­i­tual do­mains. These chil­dren of the lo­cal uni­verse Mother Spirit are char­ac­ter­ized by “fourth crea­tures” much as are the Ha­vona Servi­tals and the con­cil­i­at­ing com­mis­sions. Ev­ery fourth cheru­bim and ev­ery fourth sa­no­bim are quasi-ma­te­rial, very def­i­nitely re­sem­bling the mor­ontia level of ex­is­tence.

44:0.17There are cer­tain types of be­ings who are ca­pa­ble of dis­cern­ing the re­al­ity of the crea­tures of both the spirit and the ma­te­rial worlds. Be­long­ing to this class are the so-called fourth crea­tures of the Ha­vona Servi­tals and the fourth crea­tures of the con­cil­ia­tors. The an­gels of time and space are en­dowed with the abil­ity to dis­cern both spirit and ma­te­rial be­ings as also are the as­cend­ing mor­tals sub­se­quent to de­liv­er­ance from the life in the flesh. Af­ter at­tain­ment of the higher spirit lev­els the as­cend­ers are able to rec­og­nize ma­te­rial, mor­ontia, and spirit re­al­i­ties.
