  • Urantia Paper 18 - The Supreme Trinity Personalities: Section 7, The Faithfuls of Days
    Feb 18 2026
    The Anchors of Divinity

    On this episode of The Cosmic Citizen we finish Urantia Paper 18. The Supreme Trinity Personalities, with a reading and discussion of Section 7, The Faithfuls of Days. We also reflected on this amazing paper.

    In the final movement of Paper 18, we meet one of the most quietly powerful orders in the superuniverse administration, the Faithfuls of Days. These are the divine advisors who anchor every constellation in unwavering spiritual loyalty. Unlike the Ancients, Perfections, and Recents of Days, who rule vast domains, the Faithfuls of Days work close to the evolutionary worlds, standing by the Most Highs as living embodiments of Paradise fidelity.This section reveals a universe where divine governance is not distant or abstract but intimately present.

    The Faithfuls of Days bring the fragrance of Paradise into the very heart of local universe affairs, ensuring that every decision, every judgment, every act of mercy carries the unmistakable imprint of eternal truth. They are the quiet guardians of spiritual integrity and a steady presence that keeps the constellations aligned with the purposes of the Infinite.

    Listen in as we explore why these rarely seen, never intrusive, and always trustworthy beings, who play such a vital role in the spiritual evolution of worlds like ours. Their ministry reminds us that even in the most complex aspects of cosmic administration, loyalty, wisdom, and divine faithfulness are the true foundations of universe order.

  • Urantia Paper 18. The Supreme Trinity Personalities, § 5. The Recents of Days & § 6. The Unions of Days
    Feb 10 2026
    This week on The Cosmic Citizen we continued our study of Urantia Paper 18. The Supreme Trinity Personalities, with a reading and discussion of Section 5. The Recents of Days, and Section 6. The Unions of Days.


    These two amazing sections have such a majestic and architectural quality to them. They reveal the hidden scaffolding of the universe: the Recents of Days managing the physical foundations of creation, and the Unions of Days weaving the whole cosmic administration into a single, coordinated harmony.


    Exploring the Recents of Days, we read that they are the youthful Trinity-origin rulers who oversee the vast minor sectors. They create a cosmic laboratory where ascending mortals study the very mechanics of energy, power, and physical reality. They manage enormous numbers of the various subordinate orders of celestial beings, and coordinate between Paradise, the major sectors, and the local universes, to ensure that the physical structure of the superuniverses remains stable, balanced, and exquisitely ordered.


    Then turning our attention to the Unions of Days, the Paradise ambassadors assigned to every local universe. They are the marvelous counselors who stand beside every Creator Son. These Trinity observers weave together the physical, intellectual, and spiritual reports of the entire cosmic hierarchy. They do not rule, they harmonize. They do not command, they illuminate. Through them, our Paradise Trinity maintains a living connection with every evolving realm, from the humblest inhabited world to the highest councils of Uversa.


    Listen in as we explore how these exalted beings shape the universe we live in and how their presence reveals a cosmos that is not chaotic, but exquisitely coordinated, lovingly supervised, and endlessly purposeful.

  • Urantia Paper 18: The Supreme Trinity Personalities, Section 4. The Perfections of Days
    Feb 3 2026
    Urantia Paper 18. The Supreme Trinity Personalities, Section 4. The Perfections of Days.

    The Perfections of Days — Masters of Cosmic Administration

    In this episode of The Cosmic Citizen, we stepped into the luminous halls of the major sector capitals, where the universe’s most exacting administrators — the Perfections of Days — preside over the vast machinery of superuniverse governance. These 210 Trinity‑origin beings are the consummate masters of detail, the vicegerents of the Ancients of Days, and the steady hands guiding the ten great divisions of each superuniverse.

    We explore how these triune rulers orchestrate the intellectual training worlds of the major sectors in collaboration with a breathtaking array of celestial orders, like Divine Counselors and Mighty Messengers, and how their flawless administration shapes the ascendant journey of every single pilgrim of time.

    In this section we discover that as you advance through the superuniverse, you will meet all thirty Perfections of Days who oversee Orvonton’s major sectors. They are seasoned, tested, and exquisitely trained under the Eternals of Days of Havona. They stand ready to guide ascending souls through the higher schools of cosmic wisdom.

    Listen in as we uncover the quiet majesty of these perfect administrators and the role they play in preparing mortals for the long ascent toward Uversa and beyond.
