==PAPER 38 MINISTERING SPIRITS OF THE LOCAL UNIVERSE==     

38:0.1 There are [[three]] distinct orders of the [[personalities]] of the [[Infinite Spirit]]. The impetuous [[apostle]] understood this when he wrote respecting [[Jesus]], "who has gone to heaven and is on the right hand of God, ''angels'' and ''authorities'' and [[powers]] being made subject to him."[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=1st_Letter_of_Peter#1st_Letter_of_Peter.2C_III]. ''Angels'' are the ''ministering spirits of time''; ''authorities'', [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_25 the messenger hosts of space]; ''powers'', the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_24 higher personalities of the Infinite Spirit].

38:0.3 The [[seraphim]] are all fairly [[uniform]] in [[design]]. From [[universe]] to [[universe]], throughout all seven of [[Paper 15 - The Seven Superuniverses|the superuniverses]], they show a minimum of variation; they are the most nearly [[standard]] of all [[spirit]] [[types]] of [[personal]] [[beings]]. Their various orders [[constitute]] the corps of the [[skilled]] and common ministers of the local [[creations]].

38:2.1 [[Angels]] do not have [[material]] [[bodies]], but they are definite and [[discrete]] [[beings]]; they are of [[spirit]] [[nature]] and [[origin]]. Though [[invisible]] to [[mortals]], they [[perceive]] you as you are in the [[flesh]] without the aid of transformers or translators; they [[intellectually]] [[understand]] the mode of [[mortal]] life, and they [[share]] all of man's nonsensuous [[emotions]] and sentiments. They [[appreciate]] and greatly [[enjoy]] your [[efforts]] in [[music]], [[art]], and real [[humor]]. They are fully [[cognizant]] of your [[moral]] [[struggles]] and [[spiritual]] [[difficulties]]. They [[love]] [[human beings]], and only [[good]] can result from your efforts to [[understand]] and [[love]] them.

They [[love]] [[human beings]], and only [[good]] can result from your efforts to [[understand]] and [[love]] them.

38:2.2 Though [[seraphim]] are very [[affectionate]] and [[sympathetic]] [[beings]], they are not [[sex]]-[[emotion]] [[creatures]]. They are much as you will be on the [[mansion worlds]], where you will "neither marry nor be given in marriage but will be as the angels of heaven."[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_Mark#Chapter_12] For all who "shall be accounted worthy to attain the mansion worlds neither marry nor are given in marriage; neither do they die any more, for they are equal to the angels."[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_Luke#Chapter_20] Nevertheless, in dealing with [[sex]] [[creatures]] it is our [[custom]] to [[speak]] of those [[beings]] of more direct [[descent]] from [[the Father]] and [[the Son]] as the sons of God, while referring to the [[children]] of [[the Spirit]] as the daughters of God. [[Angels]] are, therefore, commonly designated by [[feminine]] pronouns on the [[sex]] [[planets]].

[[Angels]] are, therefore, commonly designated by [[feminine]] pronouns on the [[sex]] [[planets]].

38:2.3 The [[seraphim]] are so created as to [[function]] on both [[spiritual]] and [[literal]] levels. There are few [[phases]] of [[morontia]] or [[spirit]] [[activity]] which are not open to their ministrations. While in [[personal]] [[status]] angels are not so far removed from [[human being]]s, in certain functional [[performances]] [[seraphim]] far [[transcend]] them. They [[possess]] many [[powers]] far beyond human [[comprehension]]. For example: You have been told that the "very hairs of your head are numbered,"[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_Luke#Chapter_12] and it is true they are, but a [[seraphim]] does not spend her time counting them and keeping the [[number]] corrected up to date. [[Angels]] [[possess]] [[inherent]] and [[automatic]] (that is, automatic as far as you could perceive) [[powers]] of knowing such [[things]]; you would truly regard a [[seraphim]] as a [[mathematical]] [[prodigy]]. Therefore, numerous [[duties]] which would be tremendous tasks for [[mortals]] are [[performed]] with exceeding ease by [[seraphim]].

38:2.4 [[Angels]] are superior to you in [[spiritual]] [[status]], but they are not your [[judges]] or accusers. No matter what your faults, "the angels, although greater in power and might, bring no accusation against you."[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_Luke#Chapter_12] Angels do not sit in [[judgment]] on [[mankind]], neither should [[individual]] [[mortals]] prejudge their fellow [[creatures]].

38:2.5 You do well to [[love]] them, but you should not [[adore]] them; angels are not objects of [[worship]]. The great [[seraphim]], ''Loyalatia'', when your seer "fell down to worship before the feet of the angel,"[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Book_of_Revelation#Chapter_19] said: "See that you do it not; I am a fellow servant with you and with your races, who are all enjoined to worship God."[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Book_of_Revelation#Chapter_22]

38:2.6 In [[nature]] and [[personality]] [[endowment]], the [[seraphim]] are just a trifle ahead of [[mortal]] [[races]] in the [[scale]] of [[creature]] [[existence]]. Indeed, when you are [[Liberated|delivered]] from the [[flesh]], you become very much like them. On the [[mansion worlds]] you will begin to [[appreciate]] the [[seraphim]], on the [[constellation]] [[spheres]] to [[enjoy]] them, while on [[Salvington]] they will [[share]] their places of [[rest]] and [[worship]] with you. Throughout the whole [[morontia]] and subsequent [[spirit]] [[ascent]], your fraternity with the [[seraphim]] will be [[ideal]]; your [[Friendship|companionship]] will be superb.

38:3.1 Numerous [[orders]] of [[spirit]] [[beings]] [[function]] throughout the [[domains]] of the [[local universe]] that are unrevealed to [[mortals]] because they are in no manner [[connected]] with the evolutionary [[plan]] of [[Paradise]] [[ascension]]. In this paper the word "[[angel]]" is [[purposely]] [[limited]] to the designation of those seraphic and [[associated]] [[offspring]] of the [[Universe Mother Spirit]] who are so largely concerned with the operation of the [[plans]] of [[mortal]] [[survival]]. There serve in the [[local universe]] six other orders of related [[beings]], the [[unrevealed]] [[angels]], who are not in any specific [[manner]] [[connected]] with those [[universe]] [[activities]] pertaining to the [[Paradise]] [[ascent]] of [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_40#40:5._MORTALS_OF_TIME_AND_SPACE evolutionary mortals]. These six [[groups]] of angelic [[associates]] are never called [[seraphim]], neither are they referred to as ministering spirits. These [[personalities]] are wholly occupied with the [[administrative]] and other affairs of [[Nebadon]], engagements which are in no way related to [[man]]'s [[progressive]] [[career]] of [[spiritual]] [[ascent]] and [[perfection]] [[attainment]].

==38:4. THE SERAPHIC WORLDS==  

38:5.2 At the termination of this period of [[training]] on the seraphic worlds of [[Salvington]], seraphim are mobilized in the [[conventional]] [[groups]] and [[units]] of the angelic [[organization]] and are assigned to some one of the [[constellations]]. They are not yet commissioned as ministering spirits, although they have well entered upon the precommissioned [[phases]] of angelic [[training]].

They are not yet commissioned as ministering spirits, although they have well entered upon the precommissioned [[phases]] of angelic [[training]].

38:5.3 [[Seraphim]] are [[initiated]] as ministering spirits by [[serving]] as [[observers]] on the lowest of the [[evolutionary worlds]]. After this [[experience]] they return to the [[associate]] worlds of the [[headquarters]] of the assigned [[constellation]] to begin their advanced [[studies]] and more definitely to [[prepare]] for [[service]] in some particular [[local system]]. Following this general [[education]] they are advanced to the [[service]] of some one of the [[local system]]s. On the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_15#15:7._THE_ARCHITECTURAL_SPHERES architectural worlds] [[associated]] with the capital of some [[Nebadon]] system our seraphim complete their training and are commissioned as ministering spirits of time.

38:5.4 When once [[seraphim]] are commissioned, they may range all [[Nebadon]], even [[Orvonton]], on assignment. Their [[work]] in the [[universe]] is without bounds and [[limitations]]; they are closely [[associated]] with the [[material]] [[creatures]] of [[Paper 49 - The Inhabited Worlds|the worlds]] and are ever in the [[service]] of the lower orders of [[spiritual]] [[personalities]], making contact between these [[beings]] of the [[spirit]] world and the [[mortals]] of the [[material]] realms.

==38:6. SERAPHIC ORGANIZATION==   

38:6.1 After the second [[millennium]] of [[sojourn]] at seraphic [[headquarters]] the [[seraphim]] are [[organized]] under chiefs into [[groups]] of twelve (12 pairs, 24 seraphim), and twelve such groups [[constitute]] a company (144 pairs, 288 seraphim), which is commanded by a [[leader]]. Twelve companies under a commander [[constitute]] a battalion (1,728 pairs or 3,456 seraphim), and twelve battalions under a director [[equal]] a seraphic [[unit]] (20,736 pairs or 41,472 [[individuals]]), while twelve units, subject to the command of a supervisor, [[constitute]] a legion numbering 248,832 pairs or 497,664 individuals. [[Jesus]] alluded to such a [[group]] of [[angels]] that night in the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_182 garden of Gethsemane] when he said: "I can even now ask my Father, and he will presently give me more than twelve legions of angels."[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_Matthew#Chapter_26]

38:6.2 Twelve legions of angels comprise a host numbering 2,985,984 pairs or 5,971,968 individuals, and twelve such hosts (35,831,808 pairs or 71,663,616 individuals) make up the largest operating [[organization]] of seraphim, an angelic army. A seraphic host is commanded by an [[archangel]] or by some other [[personality]] of [[co-ordinate]] [[status]], while the angelic armies are directed by the [[Brilliant Evening Stars]] or by other immediate lieutenants of [[Gabriel]]. And Gabriel is the "supreme commander of the armies of heaven,"[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Book_of_Revelation#Chapter_19] the chief [[executive]] of the [[Master Son|Sovereign]] of [[Nebadon]], "the Lord God of hosts."[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=First_Book_of_Kings#Chapter_19]

==38:7. CHERUBIM AND SANOBIM==     

38:7.1 In all essential endowments cherubim and sanobim are similar to seraphim. They have the same origin but not always the same destiny. They are wonderfully intelligent, marvelously efficient, touchingly affectionate, and almost human. They are the lowest order of angels, hence all the nearer of kin to the more progressive types of human beings on the evolutionary worlds.

38:7.1 In all [[essential]] [[endowments]] ''cherubim and sanobim'' are similar to [[seraphim]]. They have the same [[origin]] but not always the same [[destiny]]. They are [[wonderfully]] [[intelligent]], marvelously [[efficient]], touchingly [[affectionate]], and almost [[human]]. They are the lowest order of [[angels]], hence all the nearer of kin to the more [[progressive]] types of [[human beings]] on the [[evolutionary worlds]].

38:7.2 Cherubim and sanobim are inherently associated, functionally united. One is an energy positive personality; the other, energy negative. The right-hand deflector, or positively charged angel, is the cherubim—the senior or controlling personality. The left-hand deflector, or negatively charged angel, is the sanobim—the complement of being. Each type of angel is very limited in solitary function; hence they usually serve in pairs. When serving independently of their seraphic directors, they are more than ever dependent on mutual contact and always function together.

38:7.2 Cherubim and sanobim are [[inherently]] [[associated]], [[functionally]] united. One is an [[energy]] [[Active|positive]] [[personality]]; the other, energy [[Passive|negative]]. The right-hand deflector, or positively charged angel, is the ''cherubim''—the senior or [[controlling]] [[personality]]. The left-hand deflector, or negatively charged angel, is the ''sanobim''—the [[complement]] of [[being]]. Each type of angel is very limited in [[solitary]] [[function]]; hence they usually serve in pairs. When serving [[independently]] of their seraphic directors, they are more than ever dependent on mutual contact and always [[function]] [[together]].

38:7.3 Cherubim and sanobim are the faithful and efficient aids of the seraphic ministers, and all seven orders of seraphim are provided with these subordinate assistants. Cherubim and sanobim serve for ages in these capacities, but they do not accompany seraphim on assignments beyond the confines of the local universe.

Cherubim and sanobim serve for ages in these capacities, but they do not accompany seraphim on assignments beyond the confines of the [[local universe]].

38:7.4 The cherubim and sanobim are the routine spirit workers on the individual worlds of the systems. On a nonpersonal assignment and in an emergency, they may serve in the place of a seraphic pair, but they never function, even temporarily, as attending angels to human beings; that is an exclusive seraphic privilege.

38:7.5 When assigned to a planet, cherubim enter the local courses of training, including a study of planetary usages and languages. The ministering spirits of time are all bilingual, speaking the language of the local universe of their origin and that of their native superuniverse. By study in the schools of the realms they acquire additional tongues. Cherubim and sanobim, like seraphim and all other orders of spirit beings, are continuously engaged in efforts at self-improvement. Only such as the subordinate beings of power control and energy direction are incapable of progression; all creatures having actual or potential personality volition seek new achievements.

38:7.6 Cherubim and sanobim are by nature very near the morontia level of existence, and they prove to be most efficient in the borderland work of the physical, morontial, and spiritual domains. These children of the local universe Mother Spirit are characterized by " fourth creatures " much as are the Havona Servitals and the conciliating commissions.

38:7.7 These angelic fourth creatures are of great assistance to the seraphim in the more literal phases of their universe and planetary activities. Such morontia cherubim also perform many indispensable borderline tasks on the morontia training worlds and are assigned to the service of the Morontia Companions in large numbers. They are to the morontia spheres about what the midway creatures are to the evolutionary planets. On the inhabited worlds these morontia cherubim frequently work in liaison with the midway creatures. Cherubim and midway creatures are distinctly separate orders of beings; they have dissimilar origins, but they disclose great similarity in nature and function.

==38:8. EVOLUTION OF CHERUBIM AND SANOBIM==     

38:8.1 Numerous avenues of advancing service are open to cherubim and sanobim leading to an enhancement of status, which may be still further augmented by the embrace of the Divine Minister. There are three great classes of cherubim and sanobim with regard to evolutionary potential:

38:8.1 Numerous avenues of advancing [[service]] are open to cherubim and sanobim leading to an enhancement of [[status]], which may be still further augmented by the [[embrace]] of the [[Divine Minister]]. There are three great [[classes]] of cherubim and sanobim with regard to [[evolutionary]] [[potential]]:

*1. 38:8.2 Ascension Candidates. These beings are by nature candidates for seraphic status. Cherubim and sanobim of this order are brilliant, though not by inherent endowment equal to the seraphim; but by application and experience it is possible for them to attain full seraphic standing.

*1. 38:8.2 ''Ascension Candidates''. These [[beings]] are by [[nature]] [[candidates]] for [[seraphic]] [[status]]. Cherubim and sanobim of this order are [[brilliant]], though not by [[inherent]] [[endowment]] [[equal]] to the [[seraphim]]; but by [[application]] and [[experience]] it is possible for them to [[attain]] full seraphic standing.

*2. 38:8.3 Mid-phase Cherubim. All cherubim and sanobim are not equal in ascension potential, and these are the inherently limited beings of the angelic creations. Most of them will remain cherubim and sanobim, although the more gifted individuals may achieve limited seraphic service.

*2. 38:8.3 ''Mid-phase Cherubim''. All cherubim and sanobim are not [[equal]] in [[ascension]] [[potential]], and these are the [[inherently]] [[limited]] [[beings]] of the angelic [[creations]]. Most of them will remain cherubim and sanobim, although the more gifted [[individuals]] may achieve limited [[seraphic]] [[service]].

*3. 38:8.4 Morontia Cherubim. These " fourth creatures " of the angelic orders always retain their quasi-material characteristics. They will continue on as cherubim and sanobim, together with a majority of their mid-phase brethren, pending the completed factualization of the Supreme Being.

38:8.5 While the second and third groups are somewhat limited in growth potential, the ascension candidates may attain the heights of universal seraphic service. Many of the more experienced of these cherubim are attached to the seraphic guardians of destiny and are thus placed in direct line for advancement to the status of Mansion World Teachers when deserted by their seraphic seniors. Guardians of destiny do not have cherubim and sanobim as helpers when their mortal wards attain the morontia life. And when other types of evolutionary seraphim are granted clearance for Seraphington and Paradise, they must forsake their former subordinates when they pass out of the confines of Nebadon. Such deserted cherubim and sanobim are usually embraced by the Universe Mother Spirit, thus achieving a level equivalent to that of a Mansion World Teacher in the attainment of seraphic status.

38:8.6 When, as Mansion World Teachers, the once-embraced cherubim and sanobim have long served on the morontia spheres, from the lowest to the highest, and when their corps on Salvington is overrecruited, the Bright and Morning Star summons these faithful servants of the creatures of time to appear in his presence. The oath of personality transformation is administered; and thereupon, in groups of seven thousand, these advanced and senior cherubim and sanobim are re-embraced by the Universe Mother Spirit. From this second embrace they emerge as full-fledged seraphim. Henceforth, the full and complete career of a seraphim, with all of its Paradise possibilities, is open to such reborn cherubim and sanobim. Such angels may be assigned as guardians of destiny to some mortal being, and if the mortal ward attains survival, then do they become eligible for advancement to Seraphington and the seven circles of seraphic attainment, even to Paradise and the Corps of the Finality.

==38:9. THE MIDWAY CREATURES==   

==38:9. THE MIDWAY CREATURES==   

38:9.1 The midway creatures have a threefold classification: They are properly classified with the ascending Sons of God; they are factually grouped with the orders of permanent citizenship, while they are functionally reckoned with the ministering spirits of time because of their intimate and effective association with the angelic hosts in the work of serving mortal man on the individual worlds of space.

38:9.2 These unique creatures appear on the majority of the inhabited worlds and are always found on the decimal or life-experiment planets, such as Urantia. Midwayers are of two types—primary and secondary—and they appear by the following techniques:

[[Midwayers]] are of two types—primary and secondary—and they appear by the following [[techniques]]:

*1. 38:9.3 1. Primary Midwayers, the more spiritual group, are a somewhat standardized order of beings who are uniformly derived from the modified ascendant-mortal staffs of the Planetary Princes. The number of primary midway creatures is always fifty thousand, and no planet enjoying their ministry has a larger group.

*1. 38:9.3 1. [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_77#77:1._THE_PRIMARY_MIDWAYERS ''Primary Midwayers''], the more [[spiritual]] [[group]], are a somewhat standardized order of beings who are [[uniformly]] derived from the modified [[ascendant]]-[[mortal]] [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_66#66:2._THE_PRINCE.27S_STAFF staffs] of the [[Planetary Prince]]s. The [[number]] of primary midway creatures is always fifty thousand, and no [[planet]] enjoying their ministry has a larger [[group]].

*2. 38:9.4 2. Secondary Midwayers, the more material group of these creatures, vary greatly in numbers on the different worlds, though the average is around fifty thousand. They are variously derived from the planetary biologic uplifters, the Adams and Eves, or from their immediate progeny. There are no less than twenty-four diverse techniques involved in the production of these secondary midway creatures on the evolutionary worlds of space. The mode of origin for this group on Urantia was unusual and extraordinary.

38:9.5 Neither of these groups is an evolutionary accident; both are essential features in the predetermined plans of the universe architects, and their appearance on the evolving worlds at the opportune juncture is in accordance with the original designs and developmental plans of the supervising Life Carriers.

38:9.6 Primary midwayers are energized intellectually and spiritually by the angelic technique and are uniform in intellectual status. The seven adjutant mind-spirits make no contact with them; and only the sixth and the seventh, the spirit of worship and the spirit of wisdom, are able to minister to the secondary group.

38:9.6 [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_77#77:1._THE_PRIMARY_MIDWAYERS Primary midwayers] are energized [[intellectually]] and [[spiritually]] by the [[angelic]] [[technique]] and are [[uniform]] in [[intellectual]] [[status]]. The seven [[adjutant mind-spirits]] make no contact with them; and only the sixth and the seventh, the spirit of [[worship]] and the spirit of [[wisdom]], are able to minister to the secondary group.

38:9.7 Secondary midwayers are physically energized by the Adamic technique, spiritually encircuited by the seraphic, and intellectually endowed with the morontia transition type of mind. They are divided into four physical types, seven orders spiritually, and twelve levels of intellectual response to the joint ministry of the last two adjutant spirits and the morontia mind. These diversities determine their differential of activity and of planetary assignment.

38:9.7 [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_77#77:6._THE_SECONDARY_MIDWAYERS Secondary midwayers] are [[physically]] energized by the Adamic technique, spiritually encircuited by the seraphic, and [[intellectually]] [[endowed]] with the [[morontia]] [[transition]] type of mind.

38:9.8 Primary midwayers resemble angels more than mortals; the secondary orders are much more like human beings. Each renders invaluable assistance to the other in the execution of their manifold planetary assignments. The primary ministers can achieve liaison co-operation with both morontia- and spirit-energy controllers and mind circuiters. The secondary group can establish working connections only with the physical controllers and the material-circuit manipulators. But since each order of midwayer can establish perfect synchrony of contact with the other, either group is thereby able to achieve practical utilization of the entire energy gamut extending from the gross physical power of the material worlds up through the transition phases of universe energies to the higher spirit-reality forces of the celestial realms.

38:9.9 The gap between the material and spiritual worlds is perfectly bridged by the serial association of mortal man, secondary midwayer, primary midwayer, morontia cherubim, mid-phase cherubim, and seraphim. In the personal experience of an individual mortal these diverse levels are undoubtedly more or less unified and made personally meaningful by the unobserved and mysterious operations of the divine Thought Adjuster.

38:9.10 On normal worlds the primary midwayers maintain their service as the intelligence corps and as celestial entertainers in behalf of the Planetary Prince, while the secondary ministers continue their co-operation with the Adamic regime of furthering the cause of progressive planetary civilization. In case of the defection of the Planetary Prince and the failure of the Material Son, as occurred on Urantia, the midway creatures become the wards of the System Sovereign and serve under the directing guidance of the acting custodian of the planet. But on only three other worlds in Satania do these beings function as one group under unified leadership as do the united midway ministers of Urantia.

Sooner or later all accredited midway creatures will be mustered into the ranks of the ascending Sons of God and will be duly initiated into the long adventure of the Paradise ascent in company with those very mortals of animal origin, their earth brethren, whom they so jealously guarded and so effectively served during the long planetary sojourn.
