28:6.1 In the same [[manner]] as their fellows, these [[angels]] are created serially and in [[seven]] [[reflective]] [[types]], but these types are not assigned [[individually]] to the [[separate]] [[services]] of the [[superuniverse]] [[administrators]]. All tertiary seconaphim are [[collectively]] assigned to the [[Trinitized Sons of Attainment]], and these [[ascendant]] sons use them interchangeably; that is, the [[Mighty Messengers]] can and do utilize any of the tertiary types, and so do their [[co-ordinates]], [[Those High in Authority]] and [[Those without Name and Number]]. These [[seven]] [[types]] of tertiary seconaphim are:

28:6.2 1. ''The Significance of Origins''. The ascendant [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_22#22:7._TECHNIQUE_OF_TRINITIZATION Trinitized Sons] of a [[superuniverse]] [[government]] are charged with the [[responsibility]] of dealing with all issues [[growing]] out of the [[origin]] of any [[individual]], [[race]], or [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_49 world]; and the significance of [[origin]] is the paramount question in all our plans for the [[cosmic]] [[advancement]] of the living [[creatures]] of the realm. All [[relationships]] and the [[application]] of [[ethics]] [[grow]] out of the [[fundamental]] [[facts]] of [[origin]]. [[Origin]] is the basis of the [[relational]] [[reaction]] of [[the Gods]]. Always does the [[Conjoint Actor]] "take note of the man, in what manner he was born."[http://www.roangelo.net/logwitt/manner.html]

28:6.7 The Memory of Mercy must show that the saving credit established by the [[Paradise Sons|Sons of God]] has been fully and [[faithfully]] paid out in the [[loving]] [[ministry]] of the [[patient]] [[personalities]] of the [[Third Source and Center]]. But when [[mercy]] is exhausted, when the "memory" thereof testifies to its depletion, then does [[justice]] prevail and [[righteousness]] [[decree]]. For [[mercy]] is not to be thrust upon those who despise it; [[mercy]] is not a gift to be trampled under foot by the persistent [[rebels]] of [[time]]. Nevertheless, though [[mercy]] is thus precious and dearly [[bestowed]], your [[individual]] drawing credits are always far in excess of your [[ability]] to exhaust the reserve if you are [[sincere]] of [[purpose]] and [[honest]] of [[heart]].

28:6.8 The mercy reflectors, with their tertiary [[associates]], engage in numerous [[superuniverse]] ministries, including the [[teaching]] of the [[ascending creatures]]. Among many other [[things]] the Significances of Origins teach these [[ascenders]] how to apply [[spirit]] [[ethics]], and following such [[training]], the Memories of Mercy teach them how to be truly [[merciful]]. While the [[spirit]] [[techniques]] of [[mercy]] [[ministry]] are beyond your [[concept]], you should even now [[understand]] that [[mercy]] is a [[quality]] of [[growth]]. You should [[realize]] that there is a great reward of [[personal]] [[satisfaction]] in being first [[just]], next [[fair]], then [[patient]], then [[kind]]. And then, on that [[foundation]], if you [[choose]] and have it in your [[heart]], you can take the next step and really show [[mercy]]; but you cannot exhibit [[mercy]] in and of itself. These steps must be traversed; otherwise there can be no genuine [[mercy]]. There may be [[patronage]], [[condescension]], or [[charity]]—even [[pity]]—but not [[mercy]]. True mercy comes only as the [[beautiful]] [[climax]] to these preceding adjuncts to [[group]] [[understanding]], [[mutual]] [[appreciation]], fraternal fellowship, [[spiritual]] [[communion]], and [[divine]] [[harmony]].

28:6.9 3. ''The Import of Time''. Time is the one [[universal]] [[endowment]] of all [[Free will|will]] [[creatures]]; it is the "one talent"[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_matthew#Chapter_25] [[intrusted]] to all [[intelligent]] [[beings]]. You all have [[time]] in which to [[insure]] your [[survival]]; and time is [[fatally]] squandered only when it is buried in [[neglect]], when you fail so to utilize it as to make certain the [[survival]] of your [[soul]]. Failure to improve one's time to the fullest extent possible does not impose fatal penalties; it merely retards the [[pilgrim]] of [[time]] in his [[journey]] of [[ascent]]. If [[survival]] is gained, all other losses can be retrieved.

28:6.17 [[Service]]—[[purposeful]] service, not [[slavery]]—is productive of the highest [[satisfaction]] and is [[expressive]] of the divinest [[dignity]]. [[Service]]—more service, increased service, [[difficult]] service, [[adventurous]] service, and at last [[divine]] and [[perfect]] [[service]]—is the goal of [[time]] and the destination of [[space]]. But ever will the [[play]] [[cycles]] of time [[alternate]] with the [[service]] cycles of [[progress]]. And after the [[service]] of [[time]] there follows the superservice of [[eternity]]. During the [[play]] of [[time]] you should [[Vision|envision]] the [[work]] of [[eternity]], even as you will, during the service of [[eternity]], [[reminisce]] the [[play]] of [[time]].

28:6.18 The [[universal]] [[economy]] is based on intake and output; throughout the [[eternal]] [[career]] you will never encounter [[monotony]] of inaction or [[stagnation]] of [[personality]]. [[Progress]] is made possible by [[inherent]] [[motion]], advancement [[grows]] out of the [[divine]] [[capacity]] for [[action]], and [[achievement]] is the child of [[imaginative]] [[adventure]]. But [[inherent]] in this [[capacity]] for achievement is the [[responsibility]] of [[ethics]], the [[necessity]] for recognizing that the world and the [[universe]] are filled with a multitude of [[differing]] [[types]] of [[beings]]. All of this [[magnificent]] [[creation]], including yourself, was not made just for you. This is not an [[Ego|egocentric]] [[universe]]. [[The Gods]] have [[decreed]], "It is more blessed to give than to receive,"[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Book_of_Daniel#Chapter_5] and said your [[Master Son]], "He who would be greatest among you let him be server of all."[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_matthew#Chapter_20]

28:6.19 The real [[nature]] of any [[service]], be it rendered by [[man]] or [[angel]], is fully [[revealed]] in the faces of these secoraphic service indicators, the Sanctities of Service. The full [[analysis]] of the true and of the hidden [[motives]] is clearly shown. These [[angels]] are indeed the [[mind]] [[readers]], [[heart]] searchers, and [[soul]] [[revealers]] of the [[universe]]. [[Mortals]] may employ [[words]] to conceal their [[thoughts]], but these high seconaphim lay [[bare]] the [[deep]] [[motives]] of the [[human]] [[heart]] and of the [[angelic]] [[mind]].

28:6.20 6 and 7. ''The Secret of Greatness and the Soul of Goodness''. The [[ascending]] [[pilgrims]] having [[awakened]] to the import of [[time]], the way is [[prepared]] for the [[realization]] of the [[solemnity]] of [[trust]] and for the [[appreciation]] of the [[sanctity]] of [[service]]. While these are the [[moral]] elements of greatness, there are also [[secrets]] of greatness. When the [[spiritual]] tests of greatness are [[applied]], the [[moral]] elements are not disregarded, but the [[quality]] of [[unselfishness]] [[revealed]] in disinterested [[labor]] for the welfare of one's [[earthly]] fellows, particularly worthy [[beings]] in need and in distress, that is the real [[measure]] of [[planetary]] greatness. And the [[manifestation]] of greatness on a world like [[Urantia]] is the exhibition of [[self]]-[[control]]. The great man is not he who "takes a city" or "overthrows a nation," but rather "he who subdues his own tongue."[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Book_of_Proverbs#Proverb_.16]
