21:0.1 The [[Creator Sons]] are the [[Creator|makers]] and rulers of the [[local universes]] of [[time and space]]. These [[universe]] [[creators]] and [[sovereigns]] are of dual [[origin]], embodying the characteristics of [[God the Father]] and [[God the Son]]. But each Creator Son is [[different]] from every other; each is [[unique]] in [[nature]] as well as in [[personality]]; each is the "only-begotten Son"[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=1st_Letter_of_John#1st_Letter_of_John.2C_IV] of the [[perfect]] [[deity]] [[ideal]] of his [[origin]].

21:0.2 In the vast [[work]] of [[organizing]], [[evolving]], and [[perfecting]] a [[local universe]], these high Sons always enjoy the sustaining [[approval]] of the [[Universal Father]]. The [[relationship]] of the [[Creator Sons]] with their [[Paradise Father]] is [[touching]] and superlative. No [[doubt]], the [[profound]] [[affection]] of the [[Deity]] parents for their [[divine]] [[progeny]] is the [[wellspring]] of that [[beautiful]] and well-nigh [[divine]] [[love]] which even [[mortal]] [[parents]] bear their [[children]].

21:0.3 These primary [[Paradise Sons]] are [[personalized]] as Michaels. As they go forth from [[Paradise]] to found their [[universes]], they are known as ''Creator Michaels''. When settled in [[supreme]] [[authority]], they are called [[21:6 Destiny of Master Michaels|Master Michaels]]. Sometimes we refer to the [[sovereign]] of your [[universe]] of [[Nebadon]] as [[Christ|Christ Michael]]. Always and forever do they reign after the "order of Michael," that being the designation of the first Son[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_7#7:5._THE_SPIRIT_OF_BESTOWAL] of their order and [[nature]].

The order of Michael knows the [[grand universe]] from one end to the other; there is no [[essential]] [[experience]] of any of the [[children]] of [[time and space]] in which the Michaels have not [[personally]] [[participated]]; they are in [[fact]] partakers not only of the [[divine]] [[nature]] but also of your nature, [[meaning]] all natures, from the highest to the lowest.

21:0.5 The [[original Michael]] is the presiding head of the primary [[Paradise Sons]] when they assemble for [[conference]] at the [[center]] of [[all things]]. Not long since on [[Uversa]] we recorded a [[universal]] [[broadcast]] of a conclave extraordinary on the [[eternal Isle]] of one hundred fifty thousand [[Creator Sons]] assembled in the [[parental]] [[presence]] and engaged in deliberations having to do with the [[progress]] of the [[unification]] and [[stabilization]] of the [[universe of universes]].

21:1.3 The divine [[natures]] of these [[Creator Sons]] are, in principle, derived [[equally]] from the [[attributes]] of both [[Paradise]] [[parents]]. All partake of the fullness of the divine [[nature]] of the [[Universal Father]] and of the [[creative]] prerogatives of the [[Eternal Son]], but as we [[observe]] the [[practical]] [[Manifestation|outworking]] of the Michael [[functions]] in the [[universes]], we [[discern]] [[apparent]] [[differences]]. Some Creator Sons appear to be more like [[God the Father]]; others more like [[God the Son]]. For example: The [[trend]] of [[administration]] in the universe of [[Nebadon]] suggests that its [[Creator]] and ruling Son is one whose [[nature]] and [[character]] more resemble that of the [[Eternal Mother Son]]. It should be further stated that some [[universes]] are presided over by Paradise Michaels who appear [[equally]] to resemble [[God the Father]] and [[God the Son]]. And these [[observations]] are in no sense implied [[criticisms]]; they are simply a recording of [[fact]].

21:1.4 I do not know the exact [[number]] of [[Creator Sons]] in [[existence]], but I have good reasons for [[believing]] that there are more than seven hundred thousand. Now, we know that there are exactly seven hundred thousand [[Unions of Days]] and no more are being created. We also observe that the [[ordained]] plans of the p[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Chapter_2:_The_Evolutionary_Antithesis resent universe age] seem to indicate that one [[Union of Days]] is to be stationed in each [[local universe]] as the [[counseling]] [[ambassador]] of the [[Trinity]]. We note further that the constantly increasing [[number]] of [[Creator Sons]] already exceeds the stationary number of the [[Unions of Days]]. But concerning the [[destiny]] of the Michaels beyond seven hundred thousand, we have never been informed.

21:2.1 The [[Paradise Sons]] of the primary order are the [[designers]], [[creators]], builders, and [[administrators]] of their respective domains, the [[local universes]] of [[time and space]], the basic [[creative]] [[units]] of the [[seven evolutionary superuniverses]]. A [[Creator Son]] is permitted to [[choose]] the space site of his [[future]] [[cosmic]] [[activity]], but before he may begin even the [[physical]] [[organization]] of his [[universe]], he must spend a long period of [[observation]] [[devoted]] to the [[study]] of the [[efforts]] of his older [[brothers]] in various [[creations]] located in the [[superuniverse]] of his [[projected]] [[action]]. And prior to all this, the Michael Son will have completed his long and [[unique]] [[experience]] of [[Paradise]] [[observation]] and [[Havona]] [[training]].

21:2.7 The [[types]] and [[patterns]] of [[mind]] are determined by the precreature factors of [[being]].

21:2.8 The [[control]] of [[spirit]] [[designs]] and [[types]] depends on the level of their [[manifestation]]. In the last [[analysis]], spiritual design is controlled by the [[Trinity]] or by the pre-Trinity [[spirit]] [[endowments]] of the Trinity [[personalities]]—[[Universal Father|Father]], [[Eternal Son|Son]], and [[Infinite Spirit|Spirit]].

21:2.9 When such a [[perfect]] and divine Son has taken [[possession]] of the [[space]] site of his chosen [[universe]]; when the initial [[problems]] of universe [[materialization]] and of gross [[equilibrium]] have been resolved; when he has formed an [[effective]] and [[co-operative]] [[working]] [[union]] with the [[complemental]] [[Divine Minister|Daughter of the Infinite Spirit]]—then do this Universe Son and this Universe Spirit [[initiate]] that [[liaison]] which is [[designed]] to give [[origin]] to the innumerable hosts of their [[local universe]] [[children]].[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_32#32:2._UNIVERSE_ORGANIZATION] In [[connection]] with this [[event]] the [[Creative Spirit]] [[focalization]] of the [[Paradise]] [[Infinite Spirit]] becomes [[changed]] in [[nature]], taking on the [[personal]] qualities of the [[Mother Spirit]] of a [[local universe]].

21:2.10 Notwithstanding that all [[Creator Sons]] are [[divinely]] like their [[Paradise]] [[parents]], none exactly resembles another; each is [[unique]], [[diverse]], exclusive, and [[original]] in [[nature]] as well as in [[personality]]. And since they are the [[architects]] and makers of the life plans of their respective realms, this very [[diversity]] insures that their domains will also be diverse in every [[form]] and [[phase]] of Michael-derived living [[existence]] which may be created or subsequently evolved therein. Hence the orders of [[creatures]] native to the local universes are quite varied. No two are [[administered]] or inhabited by dual-origin native beings who are in all respects identical. Within any [[superuniverse]], one half of their [[inherent]] [[attributes]] are quite alike, being derived from the [[uniform]] [[Creative Spirits]]; the other half vary, being derived from the diversified [[Creator Sons]]. But such [[diversity]] does not characterize those [[creatures]] of sole [[origin]] in the [[Creative Spirit]] nor those imported beings who are native to the [[Havona|central]] or [[superuniverses]].

21:2.11 When a Michael Son is [[absent]] from his [[universe]], its [[government]] is directed by the first-born native being, the [[Bright and Morning Star]], the[[ local universe]] chief [[executive]]. The advice and [[counsel]] of the [[Union of Days]] is invaluable at such times. During these [[absences]] a [[Creator Son]] is able to invest the [[associated]] [[Mother Spirit]] with the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_12#12:6._UNIVERSAL_OVERCONTROL overcontrol] of his [[spiritual]] [[presence]] on the [[inhabited worlds]] and in the [[hearts]] of his [[mortal]] [[children]]. And the [[Mother Spirit]] of a [[local universe]] remains always at its headquarters, extending her fostering care and [[spiritual]] [[ministry]] to the uttermost parts of such an evolutionary domain.

21:2.12 The [[personal]] [[presence]] of a[[ Creator Son]] in his [[local universe]] is not [[necessary]] to the smooth running of an established [[material]] [[creation]]. Such Sons may [[journey]] to [[Paradise]], and still their [[universes]] swing on through [[space]]. They may lay down their lines of [[power]] to [[incarnate]] as the [[children]] of [[time]]; still their realms whirl on about their respective [[center]]s. No [[material]] [[organization]] is [[independent]] of the [[absolute]]-[[gravity]] grasp of [[Paradise]] or of the [[cosmic]] overcontrol [[inherent]] in the space [[presence]] of the [[Unqualified Absolute]].

21:3.1 A [[Creator Son]] is given the range of a [[universe]] by the consent of the [[Paradise Trinity]] and with the [[confirmation]] of the supervising [[Master Spirit]] of the [[superuniverse]] concerned. Such [[action]] [[constitutes]] title of [[physical]] [[possession]], a [[cosmic]] leasehold. But the elevation of a Michael Son from this initial and self-limited stage of rulership to the experiential [[supremacy]] of self-earned [[sovereignty]] comes as a result of his own [[personal]] [[experiences]] in the [[work]] of [[universe]] [[creation]] and [[incarnated]] bestowal. Until the [[achievement]] of bestowal-earned [[sovereignty]], he rules as vicegerent of the [[Universal Father]].

21:3.2 A Creator Son could assert full [[sovereignty]] over his [[personal]] [[creation]] at any [[time]], but he wisely chooses not to.

But this has never happened throughout all the [[creations]] of [[time and space]].

21:3.3 The [[fact]] of creatorship implies the fullness of [[sovereignty]], but the Michaels choose to [[experientially]] earn it, thereby retaining the full [[co-operation]] of all [[Paradise]] [[personalities]] attached to the [[local universe]] [[administration]]. We know of no Michael who ever did otherwise; but they all could, they are truly [[freewill]] Sons.

21:3.13 Even in the prebestowal ages, a Creator Son rules his domain well-nigh supremely when there is no [[dissent]] in any of its [[parts]]. Limited rulership would hardly be [[manifest]] if [[sovereignty]] were never [[challenged]]. The sovereignty [[exercised]] by a prebestowal Creator Son in a [[universe]] without [[rebellion]] is no greater than in a [[universe]] with rebellion; but in the first instance sovereignty [[limitations]] are not [[apparent]]; in the second, they are.

21:3.14 If ever the [[authority]] or [[administration]] of a Creator Son is [[challenged]], attacked, or jeopardized, he is eternally pledged to uphold, protect, defend, and if [[necessary]] retrieve his [[personal]] [[creation]]. Such Sons can be troubled or harassed only by the [[creatures]] of their own making or by higher beings of their own [[choosing]]. It might be inferred that "higher beings," those of [[origin]] on levels above a [[local universe]], would be unlikely to trouble a Creator Son, and this is true. But they could if they chose to. [[Virtue]] is [[volitional]] with [[personality]]; [[righteousness]] is not [[automatic]] in [[freewill]] [[creatures]].

It might be inferred that "higher beings," those of [[origin]] on levels above a [[local universe]], would be unlikely to trouble a Creator Son, and this is true. But they could if they chose to. [[Virtue]] is [[volitional]] with [[personality]]; [[righteousness]] is not [[automatic]] in [[freewill]] [[creatures]].

But as we [[observe]] their [[work]] in the [[present universe age]], we detect no [[action]] that is more than [[finite]]; any conjectured [[Absonite|superfinite]] capacities must be self-contained and as yet unrevealed.
