120:0.3 In the [[course]] of each of these [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_21#21:4._THE_MICHAEL_BESTOWALS preceding bestowals] [[Michael]] not only acquired the [[finite]] [[experience]] of one [[group]] of his [[created]] [[beings]], but he also acquired an [[essential]] [[experience]] in [[Paradise]] [[co-operation]] which would, in and of itself, further contribute to [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_21#21:3._LOCAL_UNIVERSE_SOVEREIGNTY constituting him the sovereign] of his [[self]]-made [[universe]]. At any [[moment]] throughout all [[past]] [[local universe]] [[time]], [[Michael]] could have asserted [[personal]] [[sovereignty]] as a [[Creator Son]] and as a Creator Son could have ruled his [[universe]] after the [[manner]] of his own [[choosing]]. In such an [[event]], [[Immanuel]] and the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_18 associated] [[Paradise Sons]] would have taken leave of the [[universe]]. But [[Michael]] did not wish to rule [[Nebadon]] merely in his own [[isolated]] right, as a [[Creator Son]]. He [[desired]] to [[ascend]] through [[actual]] [[experience]] in [[co-operative]] [[subordination]] to the [[Paradise Trinity]] to that high place in [[universe]] [[status]] where he would become qualified to rule his [[universe]] and [[administer]] its affairs with that [[perfection]] of [[insight]] and [[wisdom]] of [[execution]] which will sometime be characteristic of the exalted rule of the [[Supreme Being]]. He [[aspired]] not to [[perfection]] of rule as a [[Creator Son]] but to [[supremacy]] of [[administration]] as the [[embodiment]] of the [[universe]] [[wisdom]] and the [[divine]] [[experience]] of the [[Supreme Being]].
