6:8.1 Concerning [[identity]], [[nature]], and other [[attributes]] of [[personality]], the Eternal Son is the full [[equal]], the [[perfect]] [[complement]], and the [[eternal]] counterpart of the [[Universal Father]]. In the same [[sense]] that God is the Universal Father, the Son is the [[Universal]] [[Mother]]. And all of us, high and low, constitute their universal [[family]].

6:8.2 To [[appreciate]] the [[character]] of the Son, you should [[study]] the [[revelation]] of the divine character of the Father; they are forever and inseparably one. As divine personalities they are virtually indistinguishable by the lower orders of [[intelligence]]. They are not so difficult of separate recognition by those whose [[origin]] is in the [[creative]] [[acts]] of the [[Deities]] themselves. Beings of nativity in the [[central universe]] and on [[Paradise]] [[discern]] the Father and the Son not only as one [[personal]] [[unity]] of universal [[control]] but also as two separate [[personalities]] [[function]]ing in definite domains of [[universe]] [[administration]].

6:8.3 As persons you may conceive of the Universal Father and the Eternal Son as separate [[individuals]], for they indeed are; but in the [[Paper 10 - The Paradise Trinity|administration of the universes]] they are so intertwined and interrelated that it is not always possible to distinguish between them. When, in the affairs of the [[Multiverse|universes]], the Father and the Son are encountered in [[confusing]] inter[[associations]], it is not always profitable to attempt to segregate their operations; merely recall that God is the initiating [[thought]] and the Son is the [[expression]]ful [[word]]. In each [[local universe]] this inseparability is [[personalized]] in the [[divinity]] of the [[Creator Son]], who stands for both Father and Son to the creatures of [[Paper 32 - The Evolution of Local Universes|ten million inhabited worlds]].

6:8.4 The Eternal Son is [[infinite]], but he is approachable through the persons of his Paradise Sons and through the patient ministry of the Infinite Spirit. Without the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_20#20:5._BESTOWAL_OF_THE_PARADISE_SONS_OF_GOD bestowal service] of the [[Paradise Sons]] and the loving [[ministry]] of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_9#9:8._PERSONALITIES_OF_THE_INFINITE_SPIRIT creatures of the Infinite Spirit], [[beings]] of [[material]] [[origin]] could hardly [[hope]] to [[attain]] the Eternal Son. And it is equally true: With the help and [[guidance]] of these [[celestial]] [[agencies]] the [[God-conscious]] [[mortal]] will certainly [[attain]] [[Paradise]] and sometime stand in the [[personal]] [[presence]] of this [[majestic]] [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Book_of_Revelation#Chapter_19 Son of Sons].

6:8.5 Even though the Eternal Son is the [[pattern]] of mortal personality [[attainment]], you find it easier to grasp the reality of both the Father and [[Infinite Spirit|the Spirit]] because the Father is the actual bestower of your [[human]] [[personality]] and the Infinite Spirit is the absolute source of your [[Adjutant Mind Spirits|mortal mind]]. But as you [[ascend]] in the Paradise path of spiritual progression, the personality of the Eternal Son will become increasingly real to you, and the [[reality]] of his infinitely spiritual mind will become more [[discernible]] to your progressively spiritualizing mind.

6:8.6 Never can the concept of the Eternal Son shine brightly in your material or subsequent [[morontia]]l mind; not until you spiritize and commence your spirit [[ascension]] will the [[comprehension]] of the personality of the Eternal Son begin to [[equal]] the [[Clarity|vividness]] of your concept of the personality of the [[Creator Son]] of [[Paradise]] [[origin]] who, in person and as a person, onetime [[incarnated]] and [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=The_Urantia_Text_-_Contents#Part_IV._The_Life_and_Teachings_of_Jesus lived on Urantia as a man among men].

6:8.7 Throughout your [[local universe]] [[experience]] the [[Creator Son]], whose [[personality]] is comprehensible by man, must compensate for your inability to grasp the full significance of the more exclusively spiritual, but none the less personal, Eternal Son of Paradise. As you [[progress]] through [[Orvonton]] and [[Havona]], as you leave behind you the vivid picture and deep [[memories]] of the [[Creator Son]] of your [[local universe]], the passing of this [[material]] and [[morontia]] [[experience]] will be compensated by ever-enlarging [[concepts]] and intensifying [[comprehension]] of the Eternal Son of [[Paradise]], whose [[reality]] and nearness will ever augment as you [[progress]] [[Ascension Career|Paradiseward]].

6:8.8 The Eternal Son is a grand and [[glorious]] [[personality]]. Although it is beyond the powers of the [[mortal]] and [[material]] [[mind]] to grasp the [[actuality]] of the [[personality]] of such an infinite [[being]], doubt not, he is a [[person]]. I know whereof I speak. Times almost without [[number]] I have stood in the divine presence of this Eternal Son and then [[journey]]ed forth in the universe to execute his [[gracious]] bidding.
