Some of us incline to the [[belief]] that the [[Life Carriers]], in their efforts to [[formulate]] [[beings]] capable of [[maintaining]] [[existence]] in an unusual [[planetary]] [[environment]], are confronted with the [[necessity]] of making such [[radical]] modifications in the [[universe]] [[plan]] of [[intelligent]] will [[creatures]] that it becomes [[inherently]] impossible to bring about permanent [[union]] with the [[Adjusters]].

40:10.12 When a [[mortal]] [[finaliter]] is [[Trinity]] [[embraced]]—becomes a [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_22 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 [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_40#40:9._SPIRIT-FUSED_MORTALS Spirit-fused] or [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_40#40:8._SON-FUSED_MORTALS Son-fused] [[mortals]] are [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_22#22:7._TECHNIQUE_OF_TRINITIZATION trinitized], they pass through the [[Paradise]] [[experience]] with the [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_40#40:7._FATHER-FUSED_MORTALS Adjuster-fused ascenders], with whom they are then identical in all matters pertaining to [[superuniverse]] [[administration]]. These [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_22#22:1._THE_TRINITY-EMBRACED_SONS 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]].

40:10.13 Thus, in the final [[analysis]], it would be hardly proper to use the [[words]] "greater" or "lesser" in [[contrasting]] the [[destinies]] of the [[ascending]] [[orders]] of sonship. Every such son of God [[shares]] the [[fatherhood]] of [[God]], and God [[loves]] each of his [[creature]] sons alike; he is no more a respecter of [[ascendant]] [[destinies]] than is he of the [[creatures]] who may [[attain]] such destinies. [[The Father]] [[loves]] each of his sons, and that [[affection]] is not less than true, [[holy]], [[divine]], unlimited, [[eternal]], and [[unique]]—a [[love]] [[bestowed]] upon this son and upon that son, [[individually]], [[personally]], and exclusively. And such a [[love]] utterly [[eclipses]] all other [[facts]]. Sonship is the [[supreme]] [[relationship]] of the [[creature]] to the [[Creator]].
