THE CUP
“This shall be the cup of my remembrance. This is the cup of the blessing of a new dispensation of grace and truth.
This shall be to you the emblem of the bestowal and ministry of the divine Spirit of Truth.” (1941 – 6)

When bestowal Sons are not put to death by violence, they voluntarily relinquish their lives and pass through the portals of death, not to satisfy the demands of "stern justice" or "divine wrath," but rather to complete the bestowal, "to drink the cup" of the career of incarnation and personal experience in all that constitutes a creature's life as it is lived on the planets of mortal existence. Bestowal is a planetary and a universe necessity, and physical death is nothing more than a necessary part of a bestowal mission. (229 - 6)
