I illumine the avenues of ascendancy in this unified and flowing integration of Urantia Book Paper 7:6, “The Paradise Sons of God,” with the 21st Century Revelatory Gospel of Michael of Nebadon. This synthesis weaves together the Creator Sons, the descending orders of Paradise sonship, and the threefold gospel of Michael: the Way of Giving, the Truth of Authorship, and the Life of Association—all in alignment with the Indwelling Adjuster and the Divine Circuits.
The Paradise Sons and the Universal Revelation of Michael of Nebadon
The revelation of the Paradise Sons of God unveils the majestic order of divine beings who descend into time and space to minister, govern, and uplift the evolutionary worlds. The Eternal Son, the Second Person of Deity, is the eternal source of these sons. He transmits to them the spirit of mercy, the impulse of service, and the divine willingness to be known and shared. Chief among them are the Creator Sons, such as Michael of Nebadon, who emerge from the unified will of the Universal Father and Eternal Son to organize and personalize a local universe.
Each Creator Son embodies a perfect expression of the divine image—a fully personal being of creative authority, divine wisdom, and spiritual sovereignty. Yet their greatness is not in might alone, but in their willingness to descend, to serve, and to become as the lowest among their creatures. This willingness is now made manifest in the present-day teachings of Michael of Nebadon, who lived among us as Jesus of Nazareth and who now offers to all the threefold gospel of truth, growth, and transformation.
The Way: Giving to the Indwelling Adjuster through the Twelve Volitions
The Way of the Gospel, as taught by Michael, begins with giving—an inner yielding of self to the divine presence within. This sacred giving is enacted through twelve volitions—heartfelt intentions of communion that awaken the soul to its divine inheritance. These include:
- Wholehearted Acknowledgement of God’s indwelling.
- Faith Attention upon His unseen but constant guidance.
- Loving and Trusting Awareness of divine companionship.
- Appreciation in Gratitude for the gifts of life and being.
- Allegiance and Loyalty to the Father's will.
- Adorational Praise and Worship of His name and presence.
- Admission and Asking in childlike honesty.
- Acceptance of Divine Preparation for transformation.
- Allowance of Change and Alignment to spirit reality.
- Alignment with the Philosophy of Truth in every moment.
- Atonement for Misalignment and errors of perception.
- Ascendancy through Service, growing in strength by giving.
These twelve volitions are the mortal’s direct path to intimacy with the Indwelling Adjuster, the divine fragment of the Universal Father that lives within each person. As the Creator Sons go forth to initiate creation, mortals go inward to respond to creation through this giving relationship with God. This is the beginning of eternal life.
The Truth: Authorship through Endowment, Faculties, and Free Will
The Truth of the revelatory gospel is that each person is endowed with authorship—the divine right to co-create their soul reality. Michael teaches that mortal beings are not passive recipients of salvation, but active creators in spiritual identity. This truth includes:
- The free will right to choose truth over illusion.
- The faculties of mind, heart, body, and soul which harmonize thought, emotion, intention, and action.
- The twelve creative powers of authorship: such as Intentional Urge, Invocational Praise, Instructional Integrity, Imaginative Trust, Integration Communion, and Inspirational Reception.
Just as each Creator Son brings a universe into existence by divine intent, each mortal author creates the conditions for soul growth by decision, devotion, and creativity. This is the truth of spiritual sovereignty: to stand within one's own moral center and choose the divine will freely and joyfully.
The Life: Association with the Living Forces of the Divine Circuits
The Life of universal relationship is revealed through the circuits of divine presence. Michael of Nebadon, as a Paradise Son, shares this life through his Spirit of Truth, which is now poured out upon all flesh. These Living Forces are:
- The Holy Spirit of the Divine Mother Spirit, the universal minister of mind and soul upliftment.
- The Heavenly Adjuster, the fragment of the Universal Father that lives within and guides toward perfection.
- The Holy Comforter, or Spirit of Truth, bestowed by the Creator Son, calling all to follow him in truth and courage.
In union, these circuits weave the soul into a living relationship with God, with the universe, and with all other creatures. The Eternal Son holds perfect knowledge of every Paradise Son and every evolving spirit—He knows the divine spark within every being who seeks Him. Through the intersonship circuit, the Paradise Sons remain united in divine communication, just as all ascending beings are drawn inward to the gravity of spirit—the pull of the Father’s love.
The Mission of the Creator Sons and the Revelation of the Supreme
The Creator Sons, including Michael of Nebadon, bring time-space Deity to personal recognition. Through their ministry, the finite can rise toward the infinite. Their revelations build the Supreme Being—the synthesis of all evolutionary experience, the Deity of time made real in space.
By living the Way of Giving, authoring the Truth of the Soul, and associating in the Life of Spirit, mortals ascend. The Creator Son leads, the Adjuster indwells, the Holy Spirit nurtures—and the Supreme gathers it all into an experiential portrait of divinity-in-evolution.
