35:0.1 The [[Sons of God]] previously introduced have had a [[Paradise]] [[origin]]. They are the [[offspring]] of the [[the Deities|divine Rulers]] of the [[universal]] [[domains]]. Of the first [[Paradise]] order of sonship, the [[Creator Sons]], there is in [[Nebadon]] only one, [[Michael]], the universe [[father]] and [[sovereign]]. Of the second order of Paradise sonship, the [[Avonal]] or [[Magisterial Sons]], Nebadon has its full quota—1,062. And these "lesser Christs" are just as [[effective]] and all-powerful in their [[planetary]] [[bestowals]] as was the [[Creator]] and [[Master Son]] on [[Urantia]]. The third order, being of [[Trinity]] [[origin]], do not register in a [[local universe]], but I estimate there are in [[Nebadon]] between fifteen and twenty thousand [[Trinity Teacher Sons]] exclusive of 9,642 [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_22#22:8._THE_CREATURE-TRINITIZED_SONS creature-trinitized] assistants of record. These [[Paradise]] [[Daynals]] are neither [[magistrates]] nor [[administrators]]; they are [[Teachers|superteachers]].

==35:1. THE FATHER MELCHIZEDEK==   

35:1.2 In the [[universe]] of [[Nebadon]] the ''Father Melchizedek'' [[acts]] as the first [[executive]] [[associate]] of the [[Bright and Morning Star]]. [[Gabriel]] is occupied more with [[universe]] [[policies]], [[Melchizedek]] with [[practical]] [[procedures]]. [[Gabriel]] presides over the regularly constituted [[tribunals]] and councils of Nebadon, [[Melchizedek]] over the special, extraordinary, and emergency commissions and [[Counsel|advisory]] bodies. [[Gabriel]] and the ''Father Melchizedek'' are never away from [[Salvington]] at the same time, for in Gabriel's absence the Father Melchizedek [[functions]] as the chief [[executive]] of [[Nebadon]].

35:1.3 The [[Melchizedeks]] of our [[universe]] were all [[created]] within one [[millennial]] period of [[standard]] [[time]] by the [[Creator Son]] and the [[Creative Spirit]] in [[liaison]] with the Father Melchizedek. Being an order of sonship wherein one of their own [[number]] [[functioned]] as [[co-ordinate]] [[creator]], [[Melchizedeks]] are in [[constitution]] partly of self-origin and therefore [[candidates]] for the [[realization]] of a [[supernal]] [[type]] of [[self-government]]. They [[periodical]]ly [[elect]] their own [[administrative]] chief for a term of seven years of standard [[time]] and otherwise [[function]] as a self-regulating order, though the original Melchizedek does [[exercise]] certain [[inherent]] coparental [[prerogatives]]. From time to time this Father Melchizedek designates certain [[individuals]] of his order to [[function]] as [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_36#36:4._MELCHIZEDEK_LIFE_CARRIERS special Life Carriers] to the ''midsonite worlds'', a [[type]] of [[inhabited planet]] not heretofore [[revealed]] on [[Urantia]].

35:1.4 The [[Melchizedeks]] do not [[function]] extensively outside the [[local universe]] except when they are called as [[witnesses]] in matters pending before the [[tribunals]] of the [[superuniverse]], and when designated special [[ambassadors]], as they sometimes are, representing one [[universe]] to another in the same [[superuniverse]]. The [[original]] or first-born [[Melchizedek]] of each [[universe]] is always at [[liberty]] to [[journey]] to the neighboring universes or to [[Paradise]] on missions having to do with the interests and [[duties]] of his order.

==35:2. THE MELCHIZEDEK SONS==  

35:2.1 The [[Melchizedeks]] are the first order of [[divine]] Sons to approach sufficiently near the lower [[creature]] life to be able to [[function]] directly in the [[ministry]] of [[mortal]] uplift, to serve the [[evolutionary]] [[races]] without the [[necessity]] of [[incarnation]]. These Sons are naturally at the mid-point of the great [[personality]] [[descent]], by [[origin]] being just about midway between the highest [[Divinity]] and the lowest [[creature]] life of will [[endowment]]. They thus become the [[natural]] [[intermediaries]] between the higher and [[divine]] [[levels]] of living [[existence]] and the lower, even the [[material]], forms of life on the [[evolutionary worlds]]. The [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_39 seraphic orders], the [[angels]], delight to [[work]] with the [[Melchizedeks]]; in [[fact]], all forms of [[intelligent]] life find in these Sons [[understanding]] [[friends]], [[sympathetic]] [[teachers]], and [[wise]] [[counselors]].

35:2.2 The [[Melchizedeks]] are a [[self-governing]] order. With this [[unique]] [[group]] we encounter the first attempt at [[self-determination]] on the part of [[local universe]] [[beings]] and [[observe]] the highest [[type]] of true [[self-government]]. These Sons [[organize]] their own [[machinery]] for their [[group]] and [[home]]-[[planet]] [[administration]], as well as that for the six [[associated]] [[spheres]] and their tributary worlds. And it should be recorded that they have never [[abused]] their [[prerogatives]]; not once throughout all the [[superuniverse]] of [[Orvonton]] have these Melchizedek Sons ever [[betrayed]] their [[trust]]. They are the [[hope]] of every [[universe]] [[group]] which [[aspires]] to [[self-government]]; they are the [[pattern]] and the [[teachers]] of [[self-government]] to all the [[spheres]] of [[Nebadon]]. All orders of [[intelligent]] [[beings]], superiors from above and subordinates from below, are wholehearted in their [[praise]] of the [[government]] of the [[Melchizedeks]].

35:2.5 These eldest Sons of a [[universe]] are the chief aids of the [[Bright and Morning Star]] in carrying out the [[mandates]] of the [[Creator Son]]. When a [[Melchizedek]] goes to a remote world in the name of [[Gabriel]], he may, for the [[purposes]] of that particular mission, be deputized in the [[name]] of the sender and in that [[event]] will appear on the [[planet]] of assignment with the full [[authority]] of the [[Bright and Morning Star]]. Especially is this true on those [[spheres]] where a higher Son has not yet appeared in the likeness of the [[creatures]] of the realm.

35:2.7 There is no [[phase]] of [[planetary]] [[spiritual]] need to which they do not [[minister]]. They are the [[teachers]] who so often win whole worlds of advanced life to the final and full [[recognition]] of the [[Creator Son]] and his [[Paradise Father]].

==35:3. THE MELCHIZEDEK WORLDS==     

35:3.1 The [[Melchizedeks]] occupy a world of their own near [[Salvington]], the [[universe]] [[headquarters]]. This [[sphere]], by name ''Melchizedek'', is the pilot world of the [[Salvington]] circuit of seventy primary spheres, each of which is encircled by six tributary spheres [[devoted]] to specialized activities. These [[marvelous]] spheres—seventy primaries and 420 tributaries—are often spoken of as the [[Melchizedek University]]. [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_40#40:5._MORTALS_OF_TIME_AND_SPACE Ascending mortals] from all the [[constellations]] of [[Nebadon]] pass through [[training]] on all 490 worlds in the acquirement of residential [[status]] on [[Salvington]].

35:3.2 The 490 spheres of the [[Salvington]] [[circuit]] are divided into ten [[groups]], each containing [[seven]] primary and forty-two tributary spheres. Each of these [[groups]] is under the general supervision of some one of the major orders of universe life.

While the young [[universe]] of [[Nebadon]] stands low in the [[scale]] of [[universes]] as regards [[spiritual]] [[achievement]] and high [[ethical]] [[development]], nevertheless, our [[administrative]] [[Challenge|troubles]] have so turned the whole [[universe]] into a vast clinic for other near-by [[creations]] that the Melchizedek colleges are thronged with student visitors and [[observers]] from other realms. Besides the immense [[group]] of local registrants there are always upward of one hundred thousand foreign students in attendance upon the [[Melchizedek schools]], for the order of [[Melchizedeks]] in [[Nebadon]] is renowned throughout all [[Splandon]].

35:4.2 While the [[Melchizedek]] orders are chiefly [[devoted]] to the vast [[educational]] system and experiential [[training]] [[regime]] of the [[local universe]], they also [[function]] in [[unique]] assignments and in unusual [[circumstances]]. In an evolving universe [[eventually]] [[embracing]] approximately ten million [[inhabited worlds]], many [[things]] out of the ordinary are [[destined]] to happen, and it is in such [[emergencies]] that the [[Melchizedeks]] [[act]]. On [[Edentia]], your [[constellation]] [[headquarters]], they are known as [[emergency]] Sons. They are always ready to [[serve]] in all exigencies—[[physical]], [[intellectual]], or [[spiritual]]—whether on a [[planet]], in a [[the System|system]], in a [[constellation]], or in the [[Nebadon|universe]]. Whenever and wherever special help is needed, there you will find one or more of the Melchizedek Sons.

35:9.8 Of all the [[local universes]] in [[Orvonton]], our universe has, with the exception of '''''Henselon''''', lost the largest [[number]] of this order of Sons.

I do not make this [[observation]] by way of [[criticism]]. The [[Creator Son|Creator]] of our [[universe]] has full [[authority]] and [[power]] to do this. It is the contention of our high rulers that, while such free-choosing Sons make excessive trouble in the earlier ages of the universe, when things are fully sifted and finally settled, the gains of higher [[loyalty]] and fuller [[volitional]] [[service]] on the part of these thoroughly tested Sons will far more than [[compensate]] for the [[confusion]] and [[Turbulence|tribulations]] of earlier times.
