30:1.111The Mid­sonite Or­ders of the Lo­cal Uni­verses.

36:4.5The Sal­ving­ton Worlds of the Fi­nal­i­ters. The Mel­chiz­e­dek life car­ri­ers, as well as the as­so­ci­ated Mother Eves, go from the sys­tem mid­sonite spheres to the fi­nal­i­ters’ worlds of the Sal­ving­ton cir­cuit, where their off­spring are also des­tined to for­gather.

36:4.6It should be ex­plained in this con­nec­tion that the fifth group of seven pri­mary worlds in the Sal­ving­ton cir­cuit are the Neb­a­don worlds of the fi­nal­i­ters. The chil­dren of the Mel­chiz­e­dek life car­ri­ers and the Ma­te­rial Daugh­ters are domi­ciled on the sev­enth world of the fi­nal­i­ters, the Sal­ving­ton mid­sonite sphere.

45:6.9The pro­ba­tion nurs­ery it­self is super­vised by one thou­sand cou­ples of Ma­te­rial Sons and Daugh­ters, vol­un­teers from the Je­ru­sem colony of their or­der. They are im­me­di­ately as­sisted by about an equal num­ber of vol­un­teer mid­sonite pa­ren­tal groups who stop off here to ren­der this ser­vice on their way from the mid­sonite world of Sa­ta­nia to the un­re­vealed des­tiny on their spe­cial worlds of reser­va­tion among the fi­nal­i­ter spheres of Sal­ving­ton.

36:4.1In ev­ery lo­cal sys­tem of in­hab­ited worlds through­out Neb­a­don there is a sin­gle sphere whereon the Mel­chiz­e­deks have func­tioned as life car­ri­ers. These abodes are known as the sys­tem mid­sonite worlds, and on each of them a ma­te­ri­ally mod­i­fied Mel­chiz­e­dek Son has mated with a se­lected Daugh­ter of the ma­te­rial or­der of son­ship. The Mother Eves of such mid­sonite worlds are dis­patched from the sys­tem head­quar­ters of ju­ris­dic­tion, hav­ing been cho­sen by the des­ig­nated Mel­chiz­e­dek life car­rier from among the nu­mer­ous vol­un­teers who re­spond to the call of the Sys­tem Sov­er­eign ad­dressed to the Ma­te­rial Daugh­ters of his sphere.

55:8.4Dur­ing this epoch of sta­bi­liza­tion, for the first time mid­soniters come from the uni­verse head­quar­ters worlds of their so­journ to act as coun­selors to the leg­isla­tive as­sem­blies and ad­vis­ers to the ad­ju­di­ca­tional tri­bu­nals. These mid­soniters also carry on cer­tain ef­forts to in­cul­cate new mota mean­ings of su­preme value into the teach­ing en­ter­prises which they spon­sor jointly with the fi­nal­i­ters. What the Ma­te­rial Sons did for the mor­tal races bi­o­log­i­cally, the mid­sonite crea­tures now do for these uni­fied and glo­ri­fied hu­mans in the ever-ad­vanc­ing realms of phi­los­o­phy and spir­i­tu­al­ized think­ing.

36:4.4The pres­ent sta­tus of these be­ings can hardly be reck­oned as ei­ther mor­tal or im­mor­tal, nei­ther can they be def­i­nitely clas­si­fied as hu­man or di­vine. These crea­tures are not Ad­juster in­dwelt, hence hardly im­mor­tal. But nei­ther do they seem to be mor­tal; no mid­soniter has ex­pe­ri­enced death. All mid­soniters ever born in Neb­a­don are alive to­day, func­tion­ing on their na­tive worlds, on some in­ter­ven­ing sphere, or on the Sal­ving­ton mid­sonite sphere in the fi­nal­i­ters’ group of worlds.

36:4.8The pur­pose of the mid­sonite crea­tures is not at pres­ent known, but it would ap­pear that these per­son­al­i­ties are for­gath­er­ing on the sev­enth fi­nal­i­ter world in prepa­ra­tion for some fu­ture even­tu­al­ity in uni­verse evo­lu­tion. Our in­quiries con­cern­ing the mid­sonite races are al­ways re­ferred to the fi­nal­i­ters, and al­ways do the fi­nal­i­ters de­cline to dis­cuss the des­tiny of their wards. Re­gard­less of our un­cer­tainty as to the fu­ture of the mid­soniters, we do know that ev­ery lo­cal uni­verse in Or­von­ton har­bors such an ac­cu­mu­lat­ing corps of these mys­te­ri­ous be­ings. It is the be­lief of the Mel­chiz­e­dek life car­ri­ers that their mid­sonite chil­dren will some day be en­dowed with the tran­scen­den­tal and eter­nal spirit of ab­sonity by God the Ul­ti­mate.

35:1.3The Mel­chiz­e­deks of our uni­verse were all cre­ated within one mil­len­nial pe­riod of stan­dard time by the Cre­ator Son and the Cre­ative Spirit in li­ai­son with the Fa­ther Mel­chiz­e­dek. Be­ing an or­der of son­ship wherein one of their own num­ber func­tioned as co-or­di­nate cre­ator, Mel­chiz­e­deks are in con­sti­tu­tion partly of self-ori­gin and there­fore can­di­dates for the re­al­iza­tion of a su­per­nal type of self-gov­ern­ment. They pe­ri­od­i­cally elect their own ad­min­is­tra­tive chief for a term of seven years of stan­dard time and oth­er­wise func­tion as a self-reg­u­lat­ing or­der, though the orig­i­nal Mel­chiz­e­dek does ex­er­cise cer­tain in­her­ent co­parental pre­rog­a­tives. From time to time this Fa­ther Mel­chiz­e­dek des­ig­nates cer­tain in­di­vid­u­als of his or­der to func­tion as spe­cial Life Car­ri­ers to the mid­sonite worlds, a type of in­hab­ited planet not here­to­fore re­vealed on Uran­tia.

36:4.2The progeny of a Mel­chiz­e­dek life car­rier and a Ma­te­rial Daugh­ter are known as mid­soniters. The Mel­chiz­e­dek fa­ther of such a race of su­per­nal crea­tures even­tu­ally leaves the planet of his unique life func­tion, and the Mother Eve of this spe­cial or­der of uni­verse be­ings also de­parts upon the ap­pear­ance of the sev­enth gen­er­a­tion of plan­e­tary off­spring. The di­rec­tion of such a world then de­volves upon her el­dest son.

36:4.3The mid­sonite crea­tures live and func­tion as re­pro­duc­ing be­ings on their mag­nif­i­cent worlds un­til they are one thou­sand stan­dard years of age; where­upon they are trans­lated by se­raphic trans­port. Mid­soniters are non­re­pro­duc­ing be­ings there­after be­cause the tech­nique of de­ma­te­ri­al­iza­tion which they pass through in prepa­ra­tion for en­seraphim­ing for­ever de­prives them of re­pro­duc­tive pre­rog­a­tives.
