20:6.2 On a [[mortal]]-[[bestowal mission]], a Paradise Son is always [[born]] of [[woman]] and [[grows]] up as a [[male]] [[child]] of the realm, as [[Jesus]] did on [[Urantia]]. These Sons of [[supreme]] [[service]] all pass from infancy through youth to [[manhood]] just as does a [[human being]]. In every respect they become like the [[mortals]] of the [[race]] into which they are [[born]]. They make [[Prayer|petitions]] to [[the Father]] as do the [[children]] of the realms in which they serve. From a [[material]] [[viewpoint]], these [[human]]-[[divine]] Sons live [[ordinary]] lives with just one exception: They do not beget [[offspring]] on the worlds of their [[sojourn]]; that is a [[universal]] restriction imposed on all orders of the [[Paradise bestowal Sons]].

20:6.3 As [[Jesus]] [[worked]] on your world as the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carpentry carpenter's] son, so do other Paradise Sons [[labor]] in various capacities on their bestowal [[planets]].

20:6.4 When a [[bestowal Son]] has mastered the [[experience]] of living the [[mortal]] life, when he has [[achieved]] [[perfection]] of [[attunement]] with his [[indwelling Adjuster]], thereupon he begins that part of his planetary mission designed to [[illuminate]] the [[minds]] and to [[inspire]] the [[souls]] of his [[brethren]] in the [[flesh]]. As [[teachers]], these Sons are exclusively [[devoted]] to the [[spiritual]] [[enlightenment]] of the [[mortal]] [[races]] on the worlds of their sojourn.

20:6.6 When the [[bestowal Sons]], Creator or Magisterial, enter the [[portals]] of [[death]], they reappear on the third day. But you should not [[entertain]] the [[idea]] that they always meet with the [[tragic]] end encountered by the [[Creator Son]] who [[sojourned]] on your world [http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/1st_Century nineteen hundred years ago]. The extraordinary and unusually cruel [[experience]] through which [[Jesus]] of [[Nazareth]] passed has caused [[Urantia]] to become locally known as "the world of the cross." It is not [[necessary]] that such inhuman treatment be accorded a Son of God, and the vast majority of [[planets]] have afforded them a more [[Hospitality|considerate reception]], allowing them to finish their [[mortal]] [[careers]], terminate the age, [[adjudicate]] the [[sleeping survivors]], and inaugurate a new [[dispensation]], without imposing a [[violent]] [[death]]. A [[bestowal Son]] must encounter [[death]], must pass through the whole of the [[actual]] [[experience]] of [[mortals]] of the realms, but it is not a requirement of the [[divine]] plan that this [[death]] be either [[violent]] or unusual.

20:6.7 When [[bestowal Sons]] are not put to [[death]] by [[violence]], they voluntarily relinquish their lives and pass through the portals of death, not to satisfy the demands of "stern justice"[https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Book_of_Leviticus#Chapter_.26] or "divine wrath,"[https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Book_of_Exodus#Chapter_.15] but rather to complete the bestowal, "to drink the cup"[https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_matthew#Chapter_20] of the [[career]] of [[incarnation]] and [[personal]] [[experience]] in all that [[constitutes]] a [[creature]]'s life as it is lived on the [[planets]] of [[mortal]] [[existence]]. Bestowal is a planetary and a [[universe]] [[necessity]], and [[physical]] [[death]] is nothing more than a [[necessary]] part of a [[bestowal mission]].
