15:10.12The re­main­ing three or­ders, Mighty Mes­sen­gers, Those High in Au­thor­ity, and Those with­out Name and Num­ber, are glo­ri­fied as­cen­dant mor­tals. The first of these or­ders came up through the as­cen­dant regime and passed through Ha­vona in the days of Grand­fanda. Hav­ing at­tained Par­a­dise, they were mus­tered into the Corps of the Fi­nal­ity, em­braced by the Par­a­dise Trin­ity, and sub­se­quently as­signed to the su­per­nal ser­vice of the An­cients of Days. As a class, these three or­ders are known as Trin­i­tized Sons of At­tain­ment, be­ing of dual ori­gin but now of Trin­ity ser­vice. Thus was the ex­ec­u­tive branch of the super­uni­verse gov­ern­ment en­larged to in­clude the glo­ri­fied and per­fected chil­dren of the evo­lu­tion­ary worlds.

22:1.10The Trin­i­tized Sons of At­tain­ment—the Mighty Mes­sen­gers, Those High in Au­thor­ity, and Those with­out Name and Num­ber—are all Ad­juster-fused as­cen­dant mor­tals who have at­tained Par­a­dise and the Corps of the Fi­nal­ity. But they are not fi­nal­i­ters; when they have been Trin­ity em­braced, their names are re­moved from the fi­nal­i­ter roll call. The new sons of this or­der pass through spe­cific courses of train­ing, for com­par­a­tively short pe­ri­ods, on the cir­cuit head­quar­ters plan­ets of the Ha­vona cir­cuits un­der the di­rec­tion of the Eter­nals of Days. There­after they are as­signed to the ser­vices of the An­cients of Days in the seven super­uni­verses.

22:2.1Mighty Mes­sen­gers be­long to the as­cen­dant group of the Trin­i­tized Sons. They are a class of per­fected mor­tals who have been re­bel­lion tested or oth­er­wise equally proved as to their per­sonal loy­alty; all have passed through some def­i­nite test of uni­verse al­le­giance. At some time in their Par­a­dise as­cent they stood firm and loyal in the face of the dis­loy­alty of their su­pe­ri­ors, and some did ac­tively and loy­ally func­tion in the places of such un­faith­ful lead­ers.

22:2.2With such per­sonal rec­ords of fi­delity and de­vo­tion, these as­cend­ing mor­tals pass on through Ha­vona with the stream of the pil­grims of time, at­tain Par­a­dise, grad­u­ate there­from, and are mus­tered into the Corps of the Fi­nal­ity. There­upon they are trin­i­tized in the se­cret em­brace of the Par­a­dise Trin­ity and sub­se­quently are com­mis­sioned to be­come as­so­ci­ated with the An­cients of Days in the ad­min­is­tra­tion of the gov­ern­ments of the seven super­uni­verses.

22:2.3Ev­ery as­cen­dant mor­tal of in­sur­rec­tionary ex­pe­ri­ence who func­tions loy­ally in the face of re­bel­lion is even­tu­ally des­tined to be­come a Mighty Mes­sen­ger of the super­uni­verse ser­vice. Like­wise is any as­cen­dant crea­ture who ef­fec­tively pre­vents such up­heavals of er­ror, evil, or sin; for ac­tion de­signed to pre­vent re­bel­lion or to ef­fect higher types of loy­alty in a uni­verse cri­sis is re­garded as of even greater value than loy­alty in the face of ac­tual re­bel­lion.

22:2.4The se­nior Mighty Mes­sen­gers were cho­sen from those as­cen­dant mor­tals of time and space who were among the ear­lier Par­a­dise ar­rivals, many hav­ing tra­versed Ha­vona in the times of Grand­fanda. But the first trini­tiz­ing of Mighty Mes­sen­gers was not ef­fected un­til the can­di­date corps con­tained rep­re­sen­ta­tives from each of the seven super­uni­verses. And the last group of this or­der to qual­ify on Par­a­dise em­braced as­cen­dant pil­grims from the lo­cal uni­verse of Neb­a­don.

22:2.5Mighty Mes­sen­gers are em­braced by the Par­a­dise Trin­ity in classes of seven hun­dred thou­sand, one hun­dred thou­sand for as­sign­ment to each super­uni­verse. Al­most one tril­lion Mighty Mes­sen­gers are com­mis­sioned on Uversa, and there is ev­ery rea­son to be­lieve that the num­ber serv­ing in each of the seven super­uni­verses is ex­actly the same.

22:2.6I am a Mighty Mes­sen­ger, and it may in­ter­est Uran­tians to know that the com­pan­ion and as­so­ciate of my mor­tal ex­pe­ri­ence was also tri­umphant in the great test, and that, though we were many times and for long pe­ri­ods sep­a­rated in the age­long in­ward as­cent to Ha­vona, we were em­braced in the same seven-hun­dred-thou­sand group, and that we spent our time pass­ing through Vicegering­ton in close and lov­ing as­so­ci­a­tion. We were fi­nally com­mis­sioned and to­gether as­signed to Uversa of Or­von­ton, and we are of­ten dis­patched in com­pany for the ex­e­cu­tion of as­sign­ments re­quir­ing the ser­vices of two Mes­sen­gers.

22:2.7Mighty Mes­sen­gers, in com­mon with all Trin­ity-em­braced sons, are as­signed to all phases of super­uni­verse ac­tiv­i­ties. They main­tain con­stant con­nec­tion with their head­quar­ters through the super­uni­verse re­flec­tiv­ity ser­vice. Mighty Mes­sen­gers serve in all sec­tors of a super­uni­verse and fre­quently ex­e­cute mis­sions to the lo­cal uni­verses and even to the in­di­vid­ual worlds, as I do on this oc­ca­sion.

22:2.8In the super­uni­verse courts, Mighty Mes­sen­gers act as de­fend­ers of both in­di­vid­u­als and plan­ets when they come up for ad­ju­di­ca­tion; they also as­sist the Per­fec­tions of Days in the di­rec­tion of the af­fairs of the ma­jor sec­tors. As a group, their chief as­sign­ment is that of super­uni­verse ob­servers. They are sta­tioned on the var­i­ous head­quar­ters worlds and on in­di­vid­ual plan­ets of im­por­tance as the of­fi­cial ob­servers of the An­cients of Days. When so as­signed, they also serve as ad­vis­ers to the au­thor­i­ties di­rect­ing the af­fairs of the spheres of their so­journ. The Mes­sen­gers take ac­tive part in all phases of the as­cen­dant scheme of mor­tal pro­gres­sion. With their as­so­ciates of mor­tal ori­gin they keep the super­gov­ern­ments in close and per­sonal touch with the sta­tus and pro­gres­sion of the plans of the de­scend­ing Sons of God.

22:2.9Mighty Mes­sen­gers are fully con­scious of their en­tire as­cen­dant ca­reers, and that is why they are such use­ful and sym­pa­thetic min­is­ters, un­der­stand­ing mes­sen­gers, for ser­vice on any world of space and to any crea­ture of time. As soon as you are de­liv­ered from the flesh, you will com­mu­ni­cate freely and un­der­stand­ingly with us since we spring from all the races on all the evo­lu­tion­ary worlds of space, that is, from those mor­tal races that are in­dwelt by, and sub­se­quently fused with, Thought Ad­justers.

22:3.1Those High in Au­thor­ity, the sec­ond group of the Trin­i­tized Sons of At­tain­ment, are all Ad­juster-fused be­ings of mor­tal ori­gin. These are the per­fected mor­tals who have ex­hib­ited su­pe­rior ad­min­is­tra­tive abil­ity and have shown ex­traor­di­nary ex­ec­u­tive ge­nius through­out their long as­cend­ing ca­reers. They are the cream of gov­ern­ing abil­ity de­rived from the sur­viv­ing mor­tals of space.

22:3.2Sev­enty thou­sand of Those High in Au­thor­ity are trin­i­tized at each Trin­ity li­ai­son. Though the lo­cal uni­verse of Neb­a­don is a com­par­a­tively young cre­ation, it has rep­re­sen­ta­tives among a re­cently trin­i­tized class of this or­der. There are now com­mis­sioned in Or­von­ton more than ten bil­lion of these skill­ful ad­min­is­tra­tors. Like all sep­a­rate or­ders of ce­les­tial be­ings, they main­tain their own head­quar­ters on Uversa, and like the other Trin­ity-em­braced sons, their re­serves on Uversa act as the cen­tral di­rect­ing body of their or­der in Or­von­ton.

22:3.3Those High in Au­thor­ity are ad­min­is­tra­tors with­out lim­i­ta­tion. They are the ev­ery­where-pres­ent and al­ways-ef­fi­cient ex­ec­u­tives of the An­cients of Days. They serve on any sphere, on any in­hab­ited world, and in any phase of ac­tiv­ity in any of the seven super­uni­verses.

22:3.4Hav­ing su­perb ad­min­is­tra­tive wis­dom and un­usual ex­ec­u­tive skill, these bril­liant be­ings as­sume to pre­sent the cause of jus­tice in be­half of the super­uni­verse tri­bu­nals; they fos­ter the ex­e­cu­tion of jus­tice and the rec­ti­fi­ca­tion of mis­adap­ta­tions in the evo­lu­tion­ary uni­verses. There­fore, if you should ever be cited for er­rors of judg­ment while you are as­cend­ing the worlds and spheres of your or­dained cos­mic pro­gres­sion, it is hardly likely that you would suf­fer in­jus­tice since your pros­e­cu­tors would be one­time as­cen­dant crea­tures who are per­son­ally fa­mil­iar with ev­ery step of the ca­reer you have tra­versed and are travers­ing.

22:4.1Those with­out Name and Num­ber con­sti­tute the third and last group of the Trin­i­tized Sons of At­tain­ment; they are the as­cen­dant souls who have de­vel­oped the abil­ity to wor­ship be­yond the skill of all the sons and daugh­ters of the evo­lu­tion­ary races from the worlds of time and space. They have ac­quired a spir­i­tual con­cept of the eter­nal pur­pose of the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther which com­par­a­tively tran­scends the com­pre­hen­sion of the evo­lu­tion­ary crea­tures of name or num­ber; there­fore are they de­nom­i­nated Those with­out Name and Num­ber. More strictly trans­lated, their name would be “Those above Name and Num­ber.”

22:4.2This or­der of sons is em­braced by the Par­a­dise Trin­ity in groups of seven thou­sand. There are of rec­ord on Uversa over one hun­dred mil­lion of these sons com­mis­sioned in Or­von­ton.

22:4.3Since Those with­out Name and Num­ber are the su­pe­rior spir­i­tual minds of the sur­vival races, they are es­pe­cially qual­i­fied to sit in judg­ment and to ren­der opin­ions when a spir­i­tual view­point is de­sir­able, and when ex­pe­ri­ence in the as­cen­dant ca­reer is es­sen­tial to an ad­e­quate com­pre­hen­sion of the ques­tions in­volved in the prob­lem to be ad­ju­di­cated. They are the su­preme ju­rors of Or­von­ton. A mal­ad­min­is­tered jury sys­tem may be more or less of a trav­esty of jus­tice on some worlds, but on Uversa and its ex­ten­sion tri­bu­nals we em­ploy the high­est type of evolved spir­i­tual men­tal­ity as ju­ror-judges. Ad­ju­di­ca­tion is the high­est func­tion of any gov­ern­ment, and those who are in­trusted with ver­dict ren­der­ing should be cho­sen from the high­est and most no­ble types of the most ex­pe­ri­enced and un­der­stand­ing in­di­vid­u­als.

• selection is inherent and automatic

22:4.4The se­lec­tion of can­di­dates for the trin­i­ti­za­tion classes of Mighty Mes­sen­gers, Those High in Au­thor­ity, and Those with­out Name and Num­ber is in­her­ent and au­to­matic. The se­lec­tive tech­niques of Par­a­dise are not in any sense ar­bi­trary. Per­sonal ex­pe­ri­ence and spir­i­tual val­ues de­ter­mine the per­son­nel of the Trin­i­tized Sons of At­tain­ment. Such be­ings are equal in au­thor­ity and uni­form in ad­min­is­tra­tive sta­tus, but they all pos­sess in­di­vid­u­al­ity and di­verse char­ac­ters; they are not stan­dard­ized be­ings. All are char­ac­ter­is­ti­cally dif­fer­ent, de­pend­ing on the dif­fer­en­tials of their as­cen­dant ca­reers.

• function as co-ordinates of Stationary Sons of Trinity

22:4.5In ad­di­tion to these ex­pe­ri­en­tial qual­i­fi­ca­tions, the Trin­i­tized Sons of At­tain­ment have been trin­i­tized in the di­vine em­brace of the Par­a­dise De­i­ties. Con­se­quently they func­tion as the co-or­di­nate as­so­ciates of the Sta­tion­ary Sons of the Trin­ity, for the Trin­ity em­brace does seem to pre­cip­i­tate out of the stream of fu­ture time many of the un­re­al­ized po­ten­tials of crea­ture be­ings. But this is true con­cern­ing only that which per­tains to the pres­ent uni­verse age.

• trio of T.S.o.A. presents viewpoint of mortal creatures

22:4.6This group of sons is chiefly, but not wholly, con­cerned with the ser­vices of the as­cen­dant ca­reer of the time-space mor­tals. If the view­point of a mor­tal crea­ture is ever in doubt, the ques­tion is set­tled by ap­peal to an as­cen­dant com­mis­sion con­sist­ing of a Mighty Mes­sen­ger, One High in Au­thor­ity, and One with­out Name and Num­ber.

22:4.7You mor­tals who read this mes­sage may your­selves as­cend to Par­a­dise, at­tain the Trin­ity em­brace, and in re­mote fu­ture ages be at­tached to the ser­vice of the An­cients of Days in one of the seven super­uni­verses, and some­time be as­signed to en­large the rev­e­la­tion of truth to some evolv­ing in­hab­ited planet, even as I am now func­tion­ing on Uran­tia.

• tertiary seconaphim assigned to

28:6.1In the same man­ner as their fel­lows, these an­gels are cre­ated se­ri­ally and in seven re­flec­tive types, but these types are not as­signed in­di­vid­u­ally to the sep­a­rate ser­vices of the super­uni­verse ad­min­is­tra­tors. All ter­tiary se­con­a­phim are col­lec­tively as­signed to the Trin­i­tized Sons of At­tain­ment, and these as­cen­dant sons use them in­ter­change­ably; that is, the Mighty Mes­sen­gers can and do uti­lize any of the ter­tiary types, and so do their co-or­di­nates, Those High in Au­thor­ity and Those with­out Name and Num­ber. These seven types of ter­tiary se­con­a­phim are:

• responsible for all issues growing out of origin of individual, race, or world

28:6.21. The Sig­nif­i­cance of Ori­gins. The as­cen­dant Trin­i­tized Sons of a super­uni­verse gov­ern­ment are charged with the re­spon­si­bil­ity of deal­ing with all is­sues grow­ing out of the ori­gin of any in­di­vid­ual, race, or world; and the sig­nif­i­cance of ori­gin is the paramount ques­tion in all our plans for the cos­mic ad­vance­ment of the liv­ing crea­tures of the realm. All re­la­tion­ships and the ap­pli­ca­tion of ethics grow out of the fun­da­men­tal facts of ori­gin. Ori­gin is the ba­sis of the re­la­tional re­ac­tion of the Gods. Al­ways does the Con­joint Ac­tor “take note of the man, in what man­ner he was born.”

• Trinity embrace endows T.S.o.A. with everything finaliters will achieve as 7th stage spirits

40:10.12When a mor­tal fi­nal­i­ter is Trin­ity em­braced—be­comes a Trin­i­tized Son, such as a Mighty Mes­sen­ger—then has that fi­nal­i­ter at­tained des­tiny, at least for the pres­ent uni­verse age. Mighty Mes­sen­gers and their fel­lows may not in the ex­act sense be sev­enth-stage spir­its, but in ad­di­tion to other things the Trin­ity em­brace en­dows them with ev­ery­thing which a fi­nal­i­ter will some­time achieve as a sev­enth-stage spirit. Af­ter Spirit-fused or Son-fused mor­tals are trin­i­tized, they pass through the Par­a­dise ex­pe­ri­ence with the Ad­juster-fused as­cend­ers, with whom they are then iden­ti­cal in all mat­ters per­tain­ing to super­uni­verse ad­min­is­tra­tion. These Trin­i­tized Sons of Se­lec­tion or of At­tain­ment at least for now are fin­ished crea­tures, in con­trast to the fi­nal­i­ters, who are at pres­ent un­fin­ished crea­tures.
