The Rebellion and the Creator Son
by Barry Culligan
The rebellion worlds present a real challenge to a Creator Son, in almost every conceivable way. We are taught that Creator Sons must earn their universe, must earn sovereignty, and one of the ways they do this is by living in the universe of their own creation and as a creature of their own devising. One has to admire this policy. A creator that creates a universe and expects all of his created beings to prosper in it might, technically, have unrealistic notions about the reality that he has created. Had he not personally experienced such things he could well have been exposed to the angsty teenager’s cry: “You don’t know my life!” But, through the life of Jesus, we know our creator most definitely has had such an experience.
It is not a coincidence that Michael chose a rebellion planet for his final bestowal. Almost every other planet in his universe is running as it should be. We’re talking approximately 9,999,950 planets, all behaving pretty much as they should (not that all these worlds have been created yet, but I’m pretty sure that Michael's performance has ended the appetite for such intoxicating delusions in the future). Given the normal sequence of events Michael could have opted for a world progressing along more ideal lines. However, if he did he might have been exposed to an accusation that he was a coward who was afraid of attempting life on worlds that were in chaos. After all, if he is going to allow worlds to be turned upside down by sin then shouldn’t he know what it feels like to try to live on such worlds? Shouldn’t he know firsthand how difficult it is to believe under such circumstances?
Technically, he’d be free to incarnate on any world of his choosing and, undoubtedly, it would be just as perfect, but in the back of peoples’ minds, especially the minds of those that hail from rebellion planets, would be: those worlds are easy. Show us what you’ve really got. Incarnate in a cosmic war zone, where the wicked appear to prosper and the poor of the world are victims of endless injustice. Let’s see you be sweet when you’re on the receiving end of cruelty and injustice. Instead of incarnating on a world where you are welcomed as a God-King, on which whole nations bend their knees eager and honored to carry out your bidding, let’s see you endure poverty and turn the other cheek when the ignorant, powerful, and cruel spit in your face. It is easy to spit out righteous edicts from your ivory tower in Salvington, but try to live by them on “real” worlds; then we’ll see what you’re really made of.
Many readers may not have realized but when Michael incarnated on our world as Jesus he became an Agondonter. No doubt, after his sublime portrayal of God and Man, not only did he forever silence any secret doubters and scoffers, every Mansonia Agondonter bent the knee and voluntarily worshiped him and glorified God that his Son had the courage to become one of them. Jesus is the God and brother of Agondonters and that is one cool accolade.
The writers tell us that there is a strong salvation element to a Creator Son’s bestowal incarnations. Wherever chaos erupts they dare to rush in and endeavor to retrieve wayward systems and sons. I suspect that all Creator Sons volunteer to incarnate on the most backward of spheres for a wide variety of reasons. The darkness of a sin-tossed world is profound but this offers an excellent backdrop against which to contrast the light of divine love. Indeed, it makes it all the more startling to witness it; the living light of love is the ultimate act of defiance in a world engulfed in spiritual darkness. Selfless loving devotion to one’s fellows, family, and country is one of the truest expressions of worship and gratitude and is undoubtedly why the forces of darkness seek to extinguish this light.
However, we should take heart; there is no depth of darkness so great that the Father would not plunge into head first, that he might save a child lost in it. The God of Light is not afraid of the dark, nor should the children of light be discouraged and fearful because the night has descended for a time. Fear not; believe only; the dawn of a new and better day will soon be breaking. Indeed, the light revealed in the life of Jesus can never be extinguished and he will tend to this flame until the whole world is ablaze with it; even now he is building tinder.
