8:3.1 As the [[Eternal Son]] is the [[word]] [[expression]] of the "first" [[absolute]] and [[infinite]] [[thought]] of the [[Universal Father]], so the ''Conjoint Actor'' is the [[perfect]] [[execution]] of the "first" completed [[creative]] [[concept]] or plan for combined [[action]] by the Father-Son personality [[partnership]] of [[absolute]] [[thought]]-[[word]] [[union]]. The [[Third Source and Center]] eternalizes [[Simultaneity|concurrently]] with the [[central]] or [[fiat]] [[creation]], and only this central creation is eternal in [[existence]] among [[Multiverse|universes]].

8:3.2 Since the [[personalization]] of the [[Third Source and Center|Third Source]], the [[First Source and Center|First Source]] no more personally participates in universe creation. The Universal Father delegates [[everything]] possible to his [[Eternal Son]]; likewise does the Eternal Son bestow all possible [[authority]] and [[power]] upon the ''Conjoint Creator''.

8:3.3 The Eternal Son and the Conjoint Creator have, as [[partners]] and through their co-ordinate personalities, planned and [[fashion]]ed every post-[[Havona]] [[The Seven Superuniverses|universe]] which has been brought into [[existence]]. The Spirit sustains the same [[personal]] [[relation]] to the Son in all subsequent creation that the Son sustains to the Father in the first and [[central creation]].

8:3.4 A [[Creator Son]] of the Eternal Son and a [[Creative Spirit]] of the Infinite Spirit created you and your [[Local Universe|universe]]; and while the Father in faithfulness upholds that which they have organized, it devolves upon this Universe Son and this Universe Spirit to foster and sustain their [[work]] as well as to minister to the [[creatures]] of their own making.

8:3.5 The Infinite Spirit is the effective [[agent]] of the all-loving [[Universal Father|Father]] and the all-merciful [[Eternal Son|Son]] for the [[execution]] of their conjoint project of drawing to themselves all [[truth]]-loving souls on all the worlds of [[time and space]]. The very [[Moment|instant]] the Eternal Son accepted his Father's plan of [[perfection]] [[attainment]] for the [[creatures]] of the universes, the moment the [[ascension]] project became a Father-Son plan, that instant the Infinite Spirit became the conjoint [[administrator]] of the Father and the Son for the [[execution]] of their [[Unity|united]] and eternal purpose. And in so doing the Infinite Spirit pledged all his [[resources]] of divine [[presence]] and of [[spirit]] [[personalities]] to the Father and the Son; he has dedicated all to the stupendous plan of exalting [[surviving]] will [[creatures]] to the divine heights of [[Paradise]] [[perfection]].

8:3.6 The Infinite Spirit is a complete, exclusive, and [[universal]] [[revelation]] of the [[Universal Father]] and his [[Eternal Son]]. All [[knowledge]] of the Father-Son [[partnership]] must be had through the ''Infinite Spirit'', the conjoint [[representative]] of the divine [[thought]]-[[word]] [[union]].

8:3.7 The [[Eternal Son]] is the only avenue of approach to the [[Universal Father]], and the ''Infinite Spirit'' is the only means of [[attaining]] the [[Eternal Son]]. Only by the [[patient]] [[ministry]] of the Spirit are the [[Paper 40 - The Ascending Sons of God|ascendant beings]] of [[time]] able to [[discover]] the [[Eternal Son|Son]].

8:3.8 At the [[center]] of [[all things]] the Infinite Spirit is the first of the [[Paradise Deities]] to be [[attained]] by the [[ascending]] [[pilgrims]]. The Third Person enshrouds the Second and the First Persons and therefore must always be first recognized by all who are candidates for presentation to the Son and his Father.

8:3.9 And in many other ways does the Spirit [[equal]]ly [[represent]] and similarly serve the Father and the Son.
