Biblical Michael the Arch Angel vs Michael of Nebadon (Jesus) in Urantia Book

In the Urantia Book, the Ancients of Days are real high-level Paradise rulers, and they are above a Creator Son like Michael of Nebadon (Jesus) in the universe administration structure.

Here’s the clean breakdown:

---

✅ Urantia’s Hierarchy (Simple + Accurate)

1) Michael of Nebadon

• A Creator Son

• The sovereign / creator-ruler of the local universe called Nebadon

• (Urantia teaches this Michael is the same one who incarnated on Earth as Jesus)

So Michael rules Nebadon, but he is still part of a larger system.

---

2) The Ancients of Days

In Urantia, the Ancients of Days are:

• The supreme rulers of the superuniverses

• Stationed at the headquarters of each superuniverse

• They represent ancient, perfected authority, judgment, and oversight

So they are not “in Nebadon,” but they are over the larger level that Nebadon exists inside.

---

✅ The Relationship: Oversight, Not Replacement

So your statement is right in meaning:

The Ancients of Days have higher jurisdiction than Michael of Nebadon.

Michael has full sovereignty in his local universe, but the Ancients of Days represent the superuniverse-level government and judgment.

Think:

• Michael of Nebadon = “King of the local universe”

• Ancients of Days = “Supreme court / highest authority of the superuniverse level”

🔥 Why this connects to The Song of God

This is why Song of God calling Archangel Michael “Ancient of Days” can confuse readers:

• In Urantia: Ancients of Days = a distinct order of beings

• In Song of God: “Ancient of Days” can be a title of primordial authority

So different systems use the same phrase differently.

✨ Your Clean Ministry Synthesis (best way to teach it)

Here’s a powerful way to unify it for Cook Universal Ministry:

• Ancients of Days = Timeless Authority / cosmic oversight

• Michael = Divine protection + local sovereignty + active order

So:

The Ancient of Days represents the “Eternal Throne Principle.”
Michael represents “Eternal Order in Action.”

Both are real — just different levels.
