Avonal Sons, Paradise Sons of God, are Magisterial Sons who embody original concepts of being and divine ideals of loving service, serving as planetary ministers and judges throughout the grand universe, executing judicial actions, magisterial missions, and bestowal missions on the inhabited worlds. [1] Magisterial Sons are dispensational adjudicators who preside over the successive dispensations of the worlds of time. [2]
The Magisterial Sons, judges of survival in creations of time and space, are personalized by the Son and the Spirit, overseeing the destinies of evolutionary races and worlds in the universe. [3]
Magisterial Sons, personalizations of the Eternal Son and Infinite Spirit, earn the right to judge survival in time and space through creature incarnation. [4] Seeing a Magisterial Son is seeing the Eternal Son of God, distinct from a Creator Son's mortal-bestowal career. [5] There are approximately 1 billion Magisterial Sons in the grand universe, with 1062 of them in Nebadon serving under the direction of the Creator Son. [6]
The Magisterial Sons, referred to as “lesser Christs”, are just as effective and all-powerful in their planetary bestowals as the Creator and Master Son in Nebadon. [7]
The residence in Jerusem circles is where the Magisterial Sons plan and carry out bestowal and adjudicational services, maintaining contact with the universe for the Avonals. [8]
The Magisterial Sons are a self-governing order based on Paradise, created through the bestowal of the Father and Son, and completed by the Infinite Spirit. [9] Avonals, in personality registers, are Magisterial Sons. [10]
They are accompanied on bestowals by:
There is no set limit for the number of times Avonal Sons may serve on magisterial and bestowal missions; typically, however, they are suspended after seven experiences to make way for less experienced Sons to serve, after which they join a Creator Son's personal council. [15]
Paradise Avonals, on magisterial missions, always appear as male adults in material form on planets, connecting with both local and universal spiritual forces. [16] Magisterial Sons, like Avonals, are born of woman on evolutionary worlds, embodying unique personalities in service to individual planets. [17] Each planet is visited by only one bestowal Son, either through a magisterial mission or a bestowal mission. [18] Evening Stars, as cocommanders, bid Magisterial Sons be about brother’s business on planetary missions. [19] Each planet in the local universe is destined to host a Magisterial Son, except for the one where the Creator Son incarnates. [20] A Paradise Avonal on a magisterial mission is fully connected to spiritual forces when incarnated as a mortal being. [21] Incarnated Magisterial Sons have experienced Adjusters personalized by the Universal Father for their missions. [22] The initial magisterial mission of Avonals involves physical incarnation, while subsequent ones may not require material form. [23]
The Magisterial Son may remain for one age on a planet if universally accepted, ushering in a new era of joint rulership that brings prosperity and a new order of world administration. [24]
When a human race's intellectual and ethical progress reaches evolutionary limits, an Avonal Son arrives on a magisterial mission; later, a bestowal Son visits as spiritual achievement nears completion, establishing planetary status and enabling the universal coming of Thought Adjusters. [25]
The Avonals serve as Magisterial Sons, executing judicial actions as high magistrates and adjudicators of the dispensations of time. [26]
World-wide peace indicates ripeness for the appearance of a Magisterial Son during an era of cultural and intellectual awakening. [31] Urantia has yet to be visited by a Magisterial Son, but the future holds promise of a potential incarnation for this purpose. [32]
Magisterial Sons accompany Teacher Sons on planetary missions to ensure the smooth working of the evolutionary plan on peaceful worlds. [33]
Magisterial Sons serve as counselors in the local system light and life stages, dispensing adjudication and providing guidance until unity is achieved. [34] Each Avonal Son's unique work is a reflection of their exclusive personality, as no two are alike. [35]
The Magisterial Sons, supported by various local universe creatures, are just as effective and powerful on bestowals as the Creator Son in their work on the inhabited worlds. [36]
Paradise Magisterial Sons, though not creators in the personal sense, are closely associated with Creator Sons and serve as planetary ministers and judges in the time-space realms of all races, worlds, and universes. [37]
The personal presence of Magisterial Sons at the inauguration of a morontia temple signals the dawn of the era of light and life on an inhabited world. [38] Planetary progress depends on missions of the Magisterial Sons and the gradual spiritualization of human beings through advancing civilization. [39]
Magisterial Sons, serving under Creator Sons in local universes, reveal themselves as divine ministers, creators, servers, bestowers, judges, teachers, and truth revealers. [40]
The Spirit of Truth, embodying the essence of the Creator Son and the bestowal Son, is sent to dwell in the hearts of mortal races by the Avonal of service and the Creator Son after the completion of a mortal incarnation. [41]
