[[File:lighterstill.jpg]][[File:The_eye_of_all_ur60.jpg|right|frame]] 52:5.1 When a certain [[standard]] of [[intellectual]] and [[spiritual]] [[development]] is [[attained]] on an [[inhabited world]], a [[Paradise]] [[bestowal Son]] always arrives. On [[normal]] worlds he does not appear in the [[flesh]] until the [[races]] have [[ascended]] to the [[Summit|highest levels]] of [[intellectual]] [[development]] and [[ethical]] [[attainment]]. But on [[Urantia]] the [[bestowal Son]], even your own [[Creator Son]], appeared at the close of the [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_52#52:3._POST-ADAMIC_MAN Adamic dispensation], but that is not the usual order of [[events]] on the [[worlds of space]]. 52:5.2 When the worlds have become ripe for [[spiritualization]], the [[bestowal Son]] arrives. These Sons always belong to the Magisterial or [[Avonal]] order except in that case, once in each [[local universe]], when the [[Creator Son]] [[prepares]] for his terminal [[bestowal]] on some [[evolutionary world]], as occurred when [[Michael]] of [[Nebadon]] appeared on [[Urantia]] to [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_120 bestow] himself upon your [[mortal]] [[races]]. Only one world in near ten million can [[enjoy]] such a gift; all other worlds are [[spiritually]] advanced by the [[bestowal]] of a [[Paradise Son]] of the [[Avonal]] order. 52:5.3 The [[bestowal Son]] arrives on a world of high [[educational]] [[culture]] and encounters a [[race]] [[spiritually]] [[trained]] and [[prepared]] to assimilate advanced [[teachings]] and to [[appreciate]] the [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_20#20:5._BESTOWAL_OF_THE_PARADISE_SONS_OF_GOD bestowal mission]. This is an age characterized by the world-wide pursuit of [[moral]] [[culture]] and [[spiritual]] [[truth]]. The [[mortal]] [[passion]] of this [[dispensation]] is the penetration of [[cosmic]] [[reality]] and [[communion]] with [[spiritual]] [[reality]]. The [[revelations]] of [[truth]] are extended to include the [[superuniverse]]. Entirely new [[systems]] of [[education]] and [[government]] grow up to supplant the crude [[regimes]] of [[former]] times. The [[joy]] of living takes on new [[color]], and the [[reactions]] of life are exalted to [[heavenly]] heights of [[tone]] and [[timbre]]. 52:5.4 The [[bestowal Son]] lives and dies for the [[spiritual]] uplift of the [[mortal]] [[races]] of a world. He [[establishes]] the "new and living way"[https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=The_Letter_to_the_Hebrews#The_Letter_to_the_Hebrews.2C_X]; his life is an [[incarnation]] of [[Paradise]] [[truth]] in [[mortal]] [[flesh]], that very [[truth]]—even the [[Spirit of Truth]]—in the [[knowledge]] of which men shall be [[free]]. 52:5.5 On [[Urantia]] the [[establishment]] of this "new and living way"[https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=The_Letter_to_the_Hebrews#The_Letter_to_the_Hebrews.2C_X] was a matter of [[fact]] as well as of [[truth]]. The [[isolation]] of [[Urantia]] in the [[Lucifer rebellion]] had suspended the [[procedure]] whereby [[mortals]] can pass, upon [[death]], directly to the shores of the [[mansion worlds]]. Before the days of [[Christ]] [[Michael]] on [[Urantia]] all [[souls]] slept on until the [[dispensational]] or special millennial [[resurrections]]. Even [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_45#45:4._THE_FOUR_AND_TWENTY_COUNSELORS Moses] was not permitted to go over to the other side until the occasion of a special [[resurrection]], the fallen [[Planetary Prince]], [[Caligastia]], contesting such a [[deliverance]]. But ever since the day of [[Pentecost]], [[Urantia]] [[mortals]] again may [[proceed]] directly to the [[morontia]] [[spheres]]. 52:5.6 Upon the [[resurrection]] of a [[bestowal Son]], on the third day after yielding up his [[incarnated]] life, he [[ascends]] to the right hand of the [[Universal Father]], receives the [[assurance]] of the [[acceptance]] of the [[bestowal mission]], and returns to the [[Creator Son]] at the [[headquarters]] of the [[local universe]]. Thereupon the bestowal [[Avonal]] and the Creator [[Michael]] send their joint spirit, the [[Spirit of Truth]], into the [[bestowal]] world. This is the occasion when the "spirit of the triumphant Son is poured out upon all flesh." The [[Universe Mother Spirit]] also [[participates]] in this [[bestowal]] of the [[Spirit of Truth]], and concomitant therewith there issues the [[bestowal]] [[edict]] of the [[Thought Adjusters]]. Thereafter all [[normal]]-[[minded]] [[Free will|will]] [[creatures]] of that world will receive [[Adjusters]] as soon as they [[attain]] the age of [[moral]] [[responsibility]], of [[spiritual]] [[choice]]. 52:5.7 If such a bestowal [[Avonal]] should return to a world after the [[bestowal mission]], he would not [[incarnate]] but would come "in glory with the seraphic hosts."[https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_Luke#Chapter_21] 52:5.8 The postbestowal Son age may extend from ten thousand to a hundred thousand years. There is no [[arbitrary]] time allotted to any of these [[dispensational]] eras. This is a time of great [[ethical]] and [[spiritual]] [[progress]]. Under the [[spiritual]] [[influence]] of these ages, [[human]] [[character]] undergoes tremendous [[transformations]] and [[experiences]] [[phenomenal]] [[development]]. It becomes possible to put the [[golden rule]] into [[practical]] operation. The [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=The_Urantia_Text_-_Contents#Part_IV._The_Life_and_Teachings_of_Jesus teachings of Jesus] are really applicable to a [[mortal]] world which has had the preliminary [[training]] of the prebestowal Sons with their [[dispensations]] of [[character]] ennoblement and [[culture]] augmentation. 52:5.9 During this [[era]] the [[problems]] of [[disease]] and delinquency are [[virtually]] solved. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-social_behaviour Degeneracy] has already been largely eliminated by selective [[reproduction]]. [[Disease]] has been [[practically]] mastered through the high resistant qualities of the [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_76#76:4._THE_VIOLET_RACE Adamic strains] and by the [[intelligent]] and world-wide [[application]] of the [[discoveries]] of the [[physical sciences]] of preceding ages. The average length of life, during this period, climbs well above the equivalent of three hundred years of [[Urantia]] [[time]]. 52:5.10 Throughout this [[epoch]] there is a [[gradual]] lessening of [[governmental]] supervision. True [[self-government]] is beginning to [[function]]; fewer and fewer restrictive [[laws]] are [[necessary]]. The military branches of [[national]] [[resistance]] are passing away; the era of [[international]] [[harmony]] is really arriving. There are many nations, mostly determined by [[land]] [[distribution]], but only one [[race]], one [[language]], and one [[religion]]. [[Mortal]] affairs are almost, but not quite, [[utopian]]. This truly is a great and [[glorious]] age! <center>[https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_52 Go to Paper 52]</center> <center>[https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=The_Urantia_Text_-_Contents Go to Table of Contents]</center> [[Category:Paper 52 - Planetary Mortal Epochs]] [[Category: Culture]] [[Category: Evolution]] [[Category: Avonal Sons]]
