22:1.11The Trin­i­tized Sons of Se­lec­tion em­brace the Trin­i­tized Cus­to­di­ans and the Trin­i­tized Am­bas­sadors. They are re­cruited from cer­tain of the evo­lu­tion­ary ser­a­phim and trans­lated mid­way crea­tures who have tra­versed Ha­vona and have at­tained Par­a­dise, as well as from cer­tain of the Spirit-fused and the Son-fused mor­tals who have like­wise as­cended to the cen­tral Isle of Light and Life. Sub­se­quent to their em­brace by the Par­a­dise Trin­ity and af­ter a brief train­ing in Ha­vona, the Trin­i­tized Sons of Se­lec­tion are as­signed to the courts of the An­cients of Days.

22:5.1The Trin­i­tized Cus­to­di­ans are Trin­i­tized Sons of Se­lec­tion. Not only do your races and other mor­tals of sur­vival value tra­verse Ha­vona, at­tain Par­a­dise, and some­times find them­selves des­tined to super­uni­verse ser­vice with the Sta­tion­ary Sons of the Trin­ity, but your faith­ful se­raphic guard­i­ans and your equally faith­ful mid­way as­so­ciates may also be­come can­di­dates for the same Trin­ity rec­og­ni­tion and su­perb per­son­al­ity des­tiny.

22:5.2Trin­i­tized Cus­to­di­ans are as­cen­dant ser­a­phim and trans­lated mid­way crea­tures who have passed through Ha­vona and have at­tained Par­a­dise and the Corps of the Fi­nal­ity. Sub­se­quently they were em­braced by the Par­a­dise Trin­ity and were as­signed to the ser­vice of the An­cients of Days.

22:5.3The can­di­dates for the Trin­ity em­brace from among the as­cen­dant ser­a­phim are ac­corded this rec­og­ni­tion be­cause of their valiant co-op­er­a­tion with some as­cen­dant mor­tal who at­tained the Corps of the Fi­nal­ity and was sub­se­quently trin­i­tized. My own se­raphic guard­ian of the mor­tal ca­reer went through with me, was later trin­i­tized, and now is at­tached to the Uversa gov­ern­ment as a Trin­i­tized Cus­to­dian.

22:5.4And so with the mid­way crea­tures; many are trans­lated and achieve Par­a­dise and, along with the ser­a­phim and for the same rea­sons, are Trin­ity em­braced and com­mis­sioned as Cus­to­di­ans in the super­uni­verses.

22:5.5The Trin­i­tized Cus­to­di­ans are em­braced by the Par­a­dise Trin­ity in groups of sev­enty thou­sand, and one sev­enth of each group is as­signed to a super­uni­verse. There are now in the ser­vice of Or­von­ton slightly over ten mil­lion of these trusted and high Cus­to­di­ans. They serve on Uversa and on the ma­jor and mi­nor head­quar­ters spheres. In their labors they are as­sisted by a corps of sev­eral bil­lion se­con­a­phim and other able super­uni­verse per­son­al­i­ties.

22:5.6The Trin­i­tized Cus­to­di­ans start out their ca­reers as cus­to­di­ans, and they con­tinue as such in the af­fairs of the super­gov­ern­ments. In a way, they are of­fi­cers of their super­uni­verse gov­ern­ments, but they do not deal with in­di­vid­u­als, as do the Ce­les­tial Guard­i­ans. The Trin­i­tized Cus­to­di­ans ad­min­is­ter group af­fairs and fos­ter col­lec­tive projects. They are the cus­to­di­ans of rec­ords, plans, and in­sti­tu­tions; they act as the trustees of un­der­tak­ings, per­son­al­ity groups, as­cen­dant projects, mor­ontia plans, uni­verse pro­jec­tions, and in­nu­mer­able other en­ter­prises.

22:6.1Trin­i­tized Am­bas­sadors are the sec­ond or­der of the Trin­i­tized Sons of Se­lec­tion and like their as­so­ciates, the Cus­to­di­ans, are re­cruited from two types of as­cen­dant crea­tures. Not all as­cend­ing mor­tals are Ad­juster or Fa­ther fused; some are Spirit fused, some are Son fused. Cer­tain of these Spirit- and Son-fused mor­tals reach Ha­vona and at­tain Par­a­dise. From among these Par­a­dise as­cend­ers, can­di­dates are se­lected for the Trin­ity em­brace, and from time to time they are trin­i­tized in classes of seven thou­sand. They are then com­mis­sioned in the super­uni­verses as Trin­i­tized Am­bas­sadors of the An­cients of Days. Al­most one-half bil­lion are reg­is­tered on Uversa.

22:6.2Trin­i­tized Am­bas­sadors are se­lected for the Trin­ity em­brace upon the ad­vices of their Ha­vona teach­ers. They rep­re­sent the su­pe­rior minds of their re­spec­tive groups and are, there­fore, best qual­i­fied to as­sist the super­uni­verse rulers in un­der­stand­ing and in ad­min­is­ter­ing the in­ter­ests of those worlds from which the Spirit-fused mor­tals hail. The Son-fused Am­bas­sadors are of great as­sis­tance in our deal­ings with prob­lems in­volv­ing the Son-fused or­der of per­son­al­ity.

22:6.3Trin­i­tized Am­bas­sadors are the emis­saries of the An­cients of Days for any and all pur­poses, to any and all worlds or uni­verses within the super­uni­verse of their as­sign­ment. They ren­der par­tic­u­lar and im­por­tant ser­vices on the head­quar­ters of the mi­nor sec­tors, and they per­form the num­ber­less mis­cel­la­neous as­sign­ments of a super­uni­verse. They are the emer­gency or re­serve corps of the Trin­i­tized Sons of the super­gov­ern­ments, and they are there­fore avail­able for a great range of du­ties. They en­gage in thou­sands upon thou­sands of un­der­tak­ings in super­uni­verse af­fairs which it is im­pos­si­ble to por­tray to hu­man minds since there is noth­ing tran­spir­ing on Uran­tia that is in any way anal­o­gous to these ac­tiv­i­ties.

Trinity embrace endows with everything finaliters will achieve as 7th stage spirits 1 paragraph

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.
