Godspeed, everyone.

After three days contemplating with his Personalized Adjuster, the heavens opened to Jesus and he was shown the enormous celestial host that had gathered from across the vast universe to do his will as needed. Surrounding the Earth and waiting to fill Jesus’ least desire were twelve legions of seraphim, and representatives from every other of the thousands of orders of universe intelligences. Their beloved creator was in mortal form, and they wanted to help him.

Jesus’ first decision was whether or not to use these mighty spiritual personalities and all the power they possessed. His decided no. He would not use the heavenly help available to him for any reason, unless of course he decided that it was his Father’s will. Jesus put the entire celestial host watching from above under the command of his Personalized Adjuster, and for over four years they stood ready to help their creator if he ever needed them. Next, Jesus decided that while he might at times use his creator powers to help others, he would never use any of his superhuman abilities to meet his own material needs—like to meet his want for food right then because his body was hungry after these first three days on the mountain.Jesus also decided that acting in self-preservation—defending himself—and engaging in the other natural bodily urges of normal men were also things that he would not do. Jesus supported these conclusions with the scripture that said man does not live by bread alone, but by the word of God.
