==119:1. THE FIRST BESTOWAL==

119:1.1 It was a [[solemn]] occasion on [[Salvington]] almost [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billion_years_ago one billion years] ago when the assembled directors and chiefs of the [[universe]] of [[Nebadon]] heard [[Michael]] announce that his elder [[brother]], [[Immanuel]], would presently [[assume]] [[authority]] in [[Nebadon]] while he (Michael) would be absent on an unexplained mission. No other [[announcement]] was made about this [[transaction]] except that the [[farewell]] [[broadcast]] to the [[Constellation Fathers]], among other instructions, said: "And for this period I place you under the [[care]] and keeping of [[Immanuel]] while I go to do the bidding of my [[Paradise Father]]."

119:1.2 After sending this [[farewell]] [[broadcast]], [[Michael]] appeared on the dispatching field of [[Salvington]], just as on many previous occasions when [[preparing]] for departure to [[Uversa]] or [[Paradise]] except that he came alone. He concluded his [[statement]] of departure with these [[words]]: "I leave you but for a short [[season]]. Many of you, I know, would go with me, but whither I go you cannot come. That which I am about to do, you cannot do. I go to do the will of the [[Paradise Deities]], and when I have finished my mission and have acquired this [[experience]], I will return to my place among you." And having thus spoken, [[Michael]] of [[Nebadon]] vanished from the [[sight]] of all those assembled and did not reappear for twenty years of [[standard]] [[time]]. In all [[Salvington]], only the [[Divine Minister]] and [[Immanuel]] knew what was taking place, and the [[Union of Days]] [[shared]] his [[secret]] only with the [[chief executive]] of the [[universe]], [[Gabriel]], the [[Bright and Morning Star]].

119:1.6 And that is all I am permitted to tell you of the ''first bestowal'' of [[Michael]]. We, of course, fully [[understand]] that this strange [[Melchizedek]] who so [[mysteriously]] served with the Melchizedeks a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billion_years_ago billion years ago] was none other than the [[incarnated]] [[Michael]] on the mission of his ''first bestowal''. The [[records]] do not specifically state that this [[unique]] and [[efficient]] [[Melchizedek]] was [[Michael]], but it is [[universally]] believed that he was. [[Probably]] the [[actual]] [[statement]] of that [[fact]] cannot be found outside of the [[records]] of [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_13#13:1._THE_SEVEN_SACRED_WORLDS_OF_THE_FATHER Sonarington], and the [[records]] of that [[secret]] world are not open to us.

We all know of the [[facts]] of the ''Michael bestowals'', but we do not [[understand]] how they are effected. We do not know how the ruler of a [[universe]], the [[creator]] of the [[Melchizedeks]], can so suddenly and [[mysteriously]] become one of their number and, as one of them, live among them and work as a [[Melchizedek]] Son for one hundred years. But it so happened.

From first to last, up to the final and triumphant return of [[Michael]] to [[Salvington]] as [[Master Son|supreme Universe Sovereign]], there was the fullest [[universe]] [[publicity]] of all that transpired on your small but highly [[honored]] world.

119:7.4 We then not only [[realized]] that our [[Creator]] and [[friend]] was taking the most precarious step in all his [[career]], apparently [[risking]] his position and [[authority]] on this [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_120 bestowal] as a helpless infant, but we also [[understood]] that his [[experience]] in this final and [[mortal]] [[bestowal]] would eternally enthrone him as the undisputed and [[Master Son|supreme sovereign]] of the [[universe]] of [[Nebadon]].
