The first question is:  Your [[personalization]] from [[spirit]] to [[flesh]] will bring with it certain [[potentials]] that I am sure we have not considered, or are not aware of.  And, though some of these potentials, for different reasons, must remain a [[mystery]] to us, there are possibly others that may broaden our [[understanding]] of your [[work]] on our [[planet]], and in turn assist us in our [[co-creative]] work.  So I ask this question:  How will your [[personalization]] [[change]] your [[ability]] to function as our [[Magisterial Son]], and how will this benefit us?

MONJORONSON:  My [[materialization]] will be very much like what occurred for Christ [[Michael]], where he became a “captive,” so to speak, during this era in his [[material]] [[body]].  There is a giving up of the [[divine]] [[personality]], the self, to move about in the universe, though there is complete [[access]] through the activity of [[mind]].  What you and the world will gain is proximity to me in a [[meaning]]ful way, where I am visible, I am there, you can [[touch]] me, you can [[converse]] with me, I am not removed.  And, I will remain day-after-day, year-after-year, decade-after-decade, century-after-century, until my [[work]] is complete with you.  What I give up is my ability to traverse, much as you traverse to the store, to the beach, and to the mountains, for instance.  It is much like being a paraplegic, confined to your [[home]], to your room, though there is still the [[capacity]] to [[think]] and [[create]] and to be of [[influence]] to those around you.  For myself, I would be confined in similar ways to this planet, though there are still great avenues for me to [[explore]] and use, as I am needed about in this [[local universe]] and beyond.

It is [[essential]] that each [[planet]] have a meaningful [[connection]] to the [[Divine]], that there is an acquaintanceship—and not only an acquaintanceship, but a [[friendship]]—a familiarity that is filled with [[awe]] and [[respect]], which states to the [[mortal]], “there is more.”  This is the life you will engage and enjoy eventually in the [[infinity]] of your [[ascendant career]].  There is life beyond this [[material]] [[mortal]] [[existence]], and I represent that completely.  It is important—my life in the [[flesh]]—will be one of the most important [[developments]] and [[revelations]] of all the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=The_Urantia_Text_-_Contents#Part_III._The_History_of_Urantia history of Urantia], and the whole [[population]] of this world, in the [[present]] [[time]] and in the [[future]] [[generations]].  I will remain long enough that your [[history]] on this planet will be indelibly inked with the [[fact]] of my [[presence]] and the impact that presence has, will have, and has had upon your world in all realms of human life and living.  Nothing will be untouched by my [[presence]].

MONJORONSON:  You see what [[effect]] Christ [[Michael]] had in the [[flesh]] as [[Jesus]], for his stay of 36 mortal years here.  What would the impact be of my life upon your world and your [[history]] if I remain for three thousand years, for example?  It would be tremendous.

Vicki:  It would be tremendous, for sure.  My next question has to do with the [[confusion]] [of] what a [[Magisterial Son]] is, even with the [[information]] that we receive in the [[Urantia Book]], it’s still quite confusing to many of us.  And so my next question has to do with one area of confusion for me that has to do with [[understanding]] your [[growth]] [[potential]] [as a] [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_20 Descending Son of God].  It is my understanding that as a Magisterial or [[Paradise Son]] you are a fully unified [[personality]], conceived in [[perfection]], but with a growth potential.  In other [[words]], you [[function]] within the experiential realm of [[the Supreme]].  Am I correct?  (Yes.)  As a [[mortal]] then, when I think of growth, I [[think]] of a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trial_and_error trial and error] [[experience]], and it is hard for me to grasp how one grows, who is within themselves perfect.  My question is: how can you add [[growth]] experience to [[perfection]]?  Can you explain how your growth is similar to or different from our mortal experience of growth as [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_40 ascending sons of God]?
