9:1.1 The Third Source and Center is known by many [[names]], all designative of [[relationship]] and in recognition of [[function]]: As God the Spirit, he is the [[personality]] co-ordinate and divine [[equal]] of [[God the Son]] and [[God the Father]]. As the Infinite Spirit, he is an [[omnipresent]] spiritual [[influence]]. As the ''[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_9_-_Relation_of_the_Infinite_Spirit_to_the_Universe#9:3._THE_UNIVERSAL_MANIPULATOR Universal Manipulator]'', he is the ancestor of the [[Paper 29 - The Universe Power Directors|power-control creatures]] and the activator of the [[cosmic]] [[forces]] of [[space]]. As the Conjoint Actor, he is the joint [[representative]] and [[partnership]] [[executive]] of the Father-Son. As the Absolute Mind, he is the source of the endowment of [[intellect]] throughout the [[Multiverse|universes]]. As the God of Action, he is the apparent ancestor of [[motion]], [[change]], and [[relationship]].

9:1.2 Some of the [[attributes]] of the Third Source and Center are derived from [[the Father]], some from [[the Son]], while still others are not observed to be actively and personally present in either the Father or the Son—attributes that can hardly be explained except by assuming that the Father-Son partnership which eternalizes the Third Source and Center consistently functions in [[consonance]] with, and in recognition of, the eternal [[fact]] of the absoluteness of [[Paradise]]. The Conjoint Creator embodies the fullness of the combined and infinite concepts of the First and Second Persons of Deity.

9:1.5 The Third Source and Center [[perfectly]] and without qualification [[shares]] the omnipresence of the [[First Source and Center]], sometimes being called the Omnipresent Spirit. In a peculiar and very personal manner the God of mind shares the omniscience of the Universal Father and his Eternal Son; the [[knowledge]] of the Spirit is [[profound]] and complete. The Conjoint Creator [[manifests]] certain [[phases]] of the [[omnipotence]] of the Universal Father but is actually omnipotent only in the domain of [[mind]]. The Third Person of Deity is the [[intellectual]] [[center]] and the universal administrator of the mind realms; herein is he absolute—his [[sovereignty]] is unqualified.

9:1.6 The Conjoint Actor seems to be [[motivated]] by the Father-Son [[partnership]], but all his [[actions]] appear to recognize the Father-Paradise relationship. At times and in certain functions he seems to compensate for the incompleteness of the [[development]] of the experiential Deities—[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Foreword#VII._THE_SUPREME_BEING God the Supreme] and [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Foreword#IX._GOD_THE_ULTIMATE God the Ultimate].

9:1.7 And herein is an [[infinite]] [[mystery]]: That the Infinite [[simultaneously]] revealed his infinity in the Son and as Paradise, and then there springs into existence a being [[equal]] to [[God]] in [[divinity]], [[reflective]] of the Son's spiritual nature, and capable of activating the [[Paradise]] [[pattern]], a being provisionally subordinate in sovereignty but in many ways apparently the most [[versatile]] in [[action]]. And such apparent superiority in action is disclosed in an attribute of the Third Source and Center which is superior even to [[physical]] [[gravity]]—the universal [[manifestation]] of the [[Isle of Paradise]].

9:1.8 In addition to this supercontrol of energy and things physical, the Infinite Spirit is superbly endowed with those [[attributes]] of [[patience]], [[mercy]], and [[love]] which are so exquisitely revealed in his spiritual ministry. The Spirit is supremely competent to minister [[love]] and to overshadow [[justice]] with [[mercy]]. God the Spirit possesses all the [[supernal]] [[kindness]] and merciful [[affection]] of the Original and Eternal Son. The [[Nebadon|universe]] of your [[origin]] is being forged out between the [http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.01.0008%3Acard%3D646 anvil of justice] and the hammer of suffering; but those who wield the hammer are the [[children]] of [[mercy]], the spirit offspring of the Infinite Spirit.
