document 7

 THE Original Son is ever concerned with the execution of the spiritual aspects of the Father's eternal purpose in its progressive development of the phenomena of the evolving universes with their manifold groups of living beings. We do not fully comprehend this eternal plan; but the Paradise Son undoubtedly understands.

The Son is like the Father in that he seeks to bestow everything possible of himself to his co-ordinate Sons and their subordinate Sons. The Son shares the Father's self-distributive nature in delivering himself unrestricted Infinite Spirit, the executive associate them.

 As the upholder of spirit realities, the Second Source and Center is the eternal counterpoise of the Isle of Paradise, which so magnificently upholds all things material. Thus, the First Source and Center forever revealed in the material beauty of the exquisite patterns of the central Isle and in the spiritual values ​​of the supernal personality of the Eternal Son.

The Eternal Son is the actual upholder of the vast creation of spirit realities and spiritual beings. The spirit world is the habit, the personal conduct, of the Son, and the impersonal realities of spiritual nature always respond to the will and purpose of the perfect personality of the Absolute Son.

 However, the Son is not personally responsible for the conduct of all spirit personalities. Will personal creature is relatively free and hence determines the actions of such volitional beings. Therefore, the spiritual world of free will is not always truly representative of the character of the Eternal Son, and the nature on Urantia is not truly revelatory perfection and immutability of Paradise and Deity. But no matter what may characterize the free action of a man or angel, the eternal domain of universal gravity control of all spirit realities that has the Son remains absolute.
