==Cosmic Context==
 
When we speak of executive and deliberative branches of the Uversa government, you may, from the analogy of certain forms of Urantian civil government, reason that we must have a third or judicial branch, and we do; but it does not have a separate personnel. Our courts are constituted as follows: There presides, in accordance with the nature and gravity of the case, an [[Ancient of Days]], a [[Perfector of Wisdom]], or a '''Divine Counselor'''. The evidence for or against an individual, a planet, system, constellation, or universe is presented and interpreted by the [[Censors]]. The defense of the children of time and the evolutionary planets is offered by the [[Mighty Messengers]], the official observers of the superuniverse government to the local universes and systems. The attitude of the higher government is portrayed by [[Those High in Authority]]. And ordinarily the verdict is formulated by a varying-sized commission consisting equally of [[Those without Name and Number]] and a group of understanding personalities chosen from the deliberative assembly.

Presented by a '''Divine Counselor''', a member of a group of [[celestial]] personalities assigned by the [[Ancients of Days]] on [[Uversa]], the headquarters of the seventh [[superuniverse]], to supervise those portions of this forthcoming revelation which have to do with affairs beyond the borders of the local universe of [[Nebadon]]. I am commissioned to sponsor those papers portraying the nature and attributes of God because ''I represent the highest source of information available for such a purpose on any inhabited world.'' I have served as a Divine Counselor in all seven of the superuniverses and have long resided at the [[Paradise]] center of all things. Many times have I enjoyed the supreme pleasure of a sojourn in the immediate personal presence of the Universal Father. I portray the reality and truth of the Father's nature and attributes with unchallengeable [[authority]]; I know whereof I speak.
